About: I have 9 years experience of professional dog training. I have 3 shepherds of my own who I use as demo dogs when teaching classes! I work with dogs of all breeds and sizes (always love a challenge:)). I also do a lot of boarding, dog sitting and walking for a lot of my clients and bring my dogs to tag along for a full pack walk! I also do baths, nails, blow drying and brush outs! I currently make my own schedule as I do dog training, grooming and boarding. I am able to attend to every dog immediately and do not need to leave them alone long at all! Sundays are the only days where there will be a 4 hour gap due to church :) I have a fenced and yard with plenty of space to roam and run and I have my 3 shepherds to keep your fur baby company! I also have crates that I can use as well!
“We could not have been in better hands than Brittney’s!! She was so very reassuring to us and our loved ones in her care. We received photos of each pet at each visit. Brittney went out of her way to make us all feel calm and cared for. She’s the best!!”

About: Hi! My name is Aimee :) I am a recent graduate from NYU! I am home most of the day as I work from home, so I am easily accessible for your pet! I have a golden lab back home in Indiana with my family, and I’m looking to take care of sweet pups while I’m in the city so I can still feel the joy of having a furry friend around while I’m away! I’ve had experience caring for my dog and dog sitting for family, friends, neighbors and rover now for a total of 12 years! It’s absolutely one of my favorite past times and would love to have it as my forever job! I’m well versed in a dog who likes to run after squirrels on walks ;) and those who need special attention to feel comfortable! I would love to take care of your sweet doggie! Their time with me will be filled with love, snuggles and lots of pictures! :) Your pet will never have to be alone for long! I am happy to take dogs on multiple walks a day and make sure to follow their routines closely. I live next to Mccarren park and am more than glad to take pups for some fun time! I always make sure to doggie proof my apartment before visits and am aware of my surroundings during stays. I live on the first floor of my apartment so going out for walks is quick and easy. I make sure to include a lot of play time and snuggles during care to insure pups are as happy as can be.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since was was 12 years old. I’ve adopted two dogs, one from a rescue and the other from Indianapolis Animal Care Services. (Both have crossed the rainbow bridge.) I volunteered with Every Dog Counts Rescue for 5 years, volunteered with The Humane Society of Hamilton County and volunteer with Indianapolis Animal Care Services. I also worked at 4 Paws Lodge in Fishers for approximately a year. I also dogsit for friends and family members every so often. I work full time Monday - Friday for a law firm in downtown Indy (I’m remote on Thursdays.) (I leave for work around 7am and don’t get home until 5:15pm). I’m in culinary school as well and have class this semester on Mondays/Tuesdays 5:30-10:20. Other than working and school, I’m very much a homebody. Despite having a busy schedule, spending time with my furry friends is one of my favorite things to do. I’ve cared for multiple dogs within numerous homes, many times. I just make sure everyone gets as much love and affection as often as they want!
About: I’ve always had pets in my life, from dogs to cats, and they mean the world to me. With two pups of my own, I know how important it is to provide love, patience, and attentive care. I treat every pet like family—because that’s exactly what they are. I work from home full-time, which means I’m available throughout the day to give pets the love, care, and attention they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or snuggles, I’ll be there to keep them happy and cared for while you’re away.” When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat them just as I would my own. I make sure to follow all routines closely—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. I also give plenty of attention and affection so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I keep the home environment tidy, respect the client’s space, and provide regular updates with photos and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to ensure both the pets and their owners feel confident and cared for throughout the entire experience.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Fortville
Brittney did a great job with our dogs! She was patient with our one dog that is more standoffish, and she was playful with our other dog that plays never ending fetch! I felt that she made sure they were well cared for while we were away. She kept us updated with messages and pictures. Will definitely use her again.

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 Fortville 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 Fortville 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 .

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 Fortville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
