“Madison was absolutely amazing! I had only had Lia for a week and was nervous about leaving her so soon, especially as she was still adjusting to a new environment. But Madison made the whole experience incredibly easy and stress-free. She was communicative, responsive, and sent thoughtful updates that gave me total peace of mind. It was clear that Lia was not just well cared for, but genuinely happy spending time with her. I’m so grateful to have found Madison—she’ll definitely be my first call in the future!”
“Tyler was so sweet and kind! She communicated with me very effectively so I always knew what was going on with my pets. I did not worry about my dog at all while he was under her care. Cannot recommend her enough!”
“Kenzie was great! She was great at communicating with me before I chose to book her. I wanted to feel comfortable with her coming to my home and messaged back and forth multiple times. She left a good note and photos of my dog!”
“Everything went very well! I think the 2 dogs and cat missed her visit the few days after we returned. 🤣😂 Grace will be caring the our pets again in the near future and I have no reservations and I know all 3 of our pets will enjoy her living care!”

“If I had to pick a permanent person in my dogs life (other than my family)....it would be Stephanie. You just know what you know......what you know. I had the wonderful opportunity of briefly meeting Steph before, because her fiance' watched Maceo several stays overnight. He is wonderful too, btw. My Maceo knew when we were heading to Josh's as soon as we would turn the corner! He would get so excited and start barking in the car. NOW....I don't know if that was for Josh....Stephanie....or the beautiful fur babies he made friends with on his visits (we'll let them fight that one out ;) Nonetheless, he loved being around them and THAT says alot to me. We want someone to love and take care of our baby just as we do. Stephanie is simply the best. She was there last minute for us, doing a couple of in-house visits and even put a package inside for me. She loved my Maceo and he looked very happy and comfortable with her. There is not even a question if I will use her again. Of course I will. I feel she is like family, now. Thanks Baby Girl! :)”
About: We have had dogs for over 30 years. So we thought why not help out the others!! We love to have the extra feet around. I work from home so I do not venture too far for too long. So lots of attention while mom and dad are gone on a break. I have a fenced in yard with lots of room to play. I can crate or cuddle depending on the dogs needs. Will be happy to give meds if needed.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Evansville
Evelyn/Evi was great with Chayce, she checked in on her several times. She fed, walked and even brushed her. Our dog is scared of fireworks & when Evi checked on her in the evening when fireworks were being fired off she sat with her & gave her comfort. This is the first time we’ve let someone Chayce didn’t know take care of her & she really took a liking to Evi quickly. We received pictures & videos which were nice, we had no worries with Evi. I would highly recommend her for pet care. We will definitely use her again when we need a dog sitter.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Evansville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Evansville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Evansville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
