“We plan all of trips without our fur baby around Toni’s availability because we don’t want anyone else taking care of Linus ! Absolutely thoughtful and letting us know what’s going on at home!”
About: I’ve been around animals since I was little, and since I was a kid I’ve loved helping people take care of their pets no matter how big or small and no matter what the animal was! I love spending time with my friends, family, and exploring around town! I’m working but my schedule is very flexible so I’m able to go and take care of animals whenever I’m needed! I’m starting college soon which will only open my horizon and area to meet more animals! I know how to crate dogs if needed and I’m no stranger to harnesses and leashes! I’ll gladly hangout with animals for hours just playing with them and making them feel safe!
About: I've had guinea pigs all my life, and I have taken care of my friends and families dogs and cats. Taking care of animals is a huge passion of mine, and I take it very seriously I have a lot of free time on my hands and would be available anytime of the week. If something does come up on my schedule I will let you know. I would prefer to take care of your animals in your own home and would be able to stay over or check in on them as much as you want.
About: I'm an experienced veterinary nurse with over 30 years, taking care of all kinds of pets. I am currently a surgical nurse and I specialize in senior care, diabetics, post surgical care and medical boarding. When your pet needs extra special care, call me! I work full time Tues, Wed, Thurs, which leaves me free to pet sit Fri, Sat, Sun & Mon. Perfect for those long weekend plans! I have a large, safe, fenced in yard for your dog to play. I have four friendly dogs and a handful of house cats to keep your pet company.
About: Hello, my name is Ashley. I am a little new to pet care but I am eager to get started! I have had dogs my whole life and have always helped out with them. I have pet sat a few times and administered medication. I currently have a 5 year old Labrador Retriever and watch my friends dogs a lot. I enjoy taking them to the beach and to the dog park very frequently. I have always been an animal lover. Any animal, any size! Though I don't yet have any professional experience, I hope to gain some. I did work at a pet store while I was in high school and learned a lot about pet health and caring for ill animals. I hope to be able to engage with your animals and build a relationship with them as well as you! Thank you! I’m currently working full time as a bartender. I typically work 3pm-11pm but my schedule does vary week to week. I can be pretty flexible with hours when necessary. I have a dog of my own that I take on walks or to the park every day! I do live in an apartment so I take my dog on walks daily or we will go to the dog park or on a trail nearby!
“I highly recommend Diana. She stayed in contact with me for the whole trip. Which really but my mind at ease. I have to say I was really worried when my pet sitter back out at the last minute. However Diana took great care of my pups and house. If I could give her 10 stars I would.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. The first dog I called mine was a miniature schnauzer named Poca. I got her when I was 5. I have had many dogs over the years, as well as cats, birds, guinea pigs, hamsters, reptiles, and other types of pets. I have worked at animal shelters for months of my life. I would feed animals, give them water, take them outside, help administer medicine, watch them in the yards, and just generally love on them. I also have experience working with wild animals at zoos. I have open availability for pet care services, as my main source of income is gig economy work. I am flexible, so no matter what you need, I can likely make it work. I make sure your pets always have access to fresh water, and depending on how your pets are usually fed, I can feed them on a schedule or set up free-feeding. I will also make sure they get plenty of attention.
“Katie was great! She spent quality time with the pups and went out of her way to form a positive relationship with our very shy wolfhound. I highly recommend Katie and will book her in the future.”
“Brittany genuinely loves animals. She connected with my German Shepherd right away and she didn't just check care taking tasks off a list she took care of our 7 year old puppy while we were away. She was professional and easy to work with. We don't need a sitter very often but I'm sure there will be more Brittany in our future.”
About: I have been helping care for our dogs my entire life but I’m really only counting since I was 10. I’m not sure if I would count earlier as helping lol. I would dog sit for family, friends, and coworkers too. I always make sure they are happy and feed. Along with making sure all their energy is out too. I will follow all food instructions that they have. I have given dogs pills before if they require them. I have limited experience with both elderly dogs and puppies, however I am willing to learn what they will need from me. I do work full time but I have an hour lunch where I can run back to let them out. I work from 8-4 so if they don’t need to be let out during the day I will let them out immediately once I get back. I do not do much on the weekends so weekends will be spent with furry friends. I will care for your pet in your home and make it as close as to their routine as possible. I have walked dogs on a leash and have good control. If they do not eat human food they will not be given human food. I always stick to the portions that I am told when feeding them too. If I have a concern about one of the furry friends I will contact you immediately to see what you would like me to do.

Evansville pet parents share their Rover experiences
This was the first time I’ve ever left my dogs 1 & 2 years old rescues. Saul was wonderful with them. Went above and beyond staying with them! They were so happy when I got back. Saul also made sure the house was tidied up and messes cleaned since the guys were anxious and had some misses on rug and floor. Sent messages every day to let me know they were ok and happy. I highly recommend him!
