House Sitting in Knightsville

“Emma was so amazing with my girls! I was very hesitant to bring on a new sitter in the middle of a medical shit-show for my oldest dog. Emma showed up at 5:45 AM (That already earns her a 'you're amazing!' in my book) and stayed with my two younger girls so that I could take my oldest one for specialized care at a vet teaching hospital. She didn't mind that I didn't know when I'd get back. She didn't mind that I'm a complete hot mess express. The girls absolutely loved her, and I loved that the first thing she did at our meet and greet was play with them. When my middle girl didn't want to eat while I was gone, she even tried hand-feeding her. Emma is the MVP, and I know I will be using her many times in the future.”

About: I've loved and cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities since I was 13 years old. Over the past 7 years, I've built real experience with puppies, seniors, large breeds, and dogs with special needs or medications — giving each one the patience and attention they deserve. Whether I'm walking, dropping in, or house sitting, your dog is always in caring, capable hands. Neighbors and families have trusted me to treat their pets like my own, and that's a responsibility I take to heart. Multi-dog households are no problem — the more, the merrier! Being home from college means I have a flexible, wide-open schedule throughout the day — and I couldn't think of a better way to fill it than caring for pets! Morning, midday, or afternoon, I'll work around whatever fits you best. Consistency matters, and I'm committed to showing up reliably every time. Your pet's safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. Before every visit I confirm how often you'd like updates so there are never any surprises. Your home and your furry family member will always be treated with total respect. Fair warning though — I love taking photos, so expect plenty of cute snapshots sent straight to your phone. Happy pet, happy owner — that's always the goal!

“Shakarra was great with our 2 dogs! They can be a lot but they loved her! She was very responsive and sent pictures. I was so grateful to have her here and take care of them!”

About: While I enjoy all animals, cats are my favorite. I have loved and cared for countless cats requiring various levels of care from kittens to seniors. I have experience administering shots and medications, personalized feeding, cleaning, and even birthing. I have studied and researched cat behaviors since I could read. I love each fur baby like they are my own. I'm the friend that always has cat food in their car or leaves the party to sit with the cat that's hiding in the closet. I work full-time, but I have all evenings and weekends free to spend time with your pets. If nearby, I can make quick trips during the day. I can dedicate as much time as needed during weekends. I am also able to keep cats at my home if preferred for more interaction time and socialization with my two friendly kitties. Dog (or cat) walks are limited to evenings or weekends. Must have a leash/harness. I let the animals take charge for the most part. I find that they will tell you what they need, and it is up to you to interpret them. Structure can be important, but following their lead and understanding their instincts can save you time and energy. I also try to be firm when it comes to meals and treats. (sometimes a challenge!) Health and longevity are most important to me.

“Josie was very friendly, and took great care of our pets. I will absolutely be booking again 😄”

About: Hi! I’m Katy, and I would love to care for your pets while you’re away. I’m a full-time music therapist, which means patience, attentiveness, and compassion are a big part of my everyday life. I bring that same calm and caring approach to every animal I look after. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing company, I’m happy to meet them where they are and make sure they feel comfortable and safe. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’m always happy to send updates and photos so you know they’re doing well. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away! I am available every day. Usually will check-in during mornings and evenings on weekdays. I am available all day for weekends. I am very thorough and flexible. Please message me so I can fit your exact schedule! I focus on keeping pets comfortable by following their normal routines as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise, playtime, and attention, and have a calm and safe environment. I also keep the home tidy and send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is doing well.

“Chasity is very reliable and keeps you informed about your pet while you are away. My dog Cooper just loves her and feels very comfortable around Chasity.”

About: I have been taking care of my own dogs my whole life, and I've been helping my older sister take care of her pitbull while she's out of town since 2021 I have a lot of free time and some dogs of my own that can be play mates with yours, and if that's no good I also have rooms where the dogs can stay separated I have a fenced in front yard that dogs can freely roam and a really big backyard that is perfect for playing and running around in

“We had a fantastic experience with Matthew as our dog sitter while we went out to dinner to visit family in Greencastle, Indiana. He watched our two dogs for about 3.5 hours and did an excellent job. Matthew was professional, punctual, and took great care of them. He kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Both dogs were happy and well-cared for when we returned, and it was clear that Matthew genuinely loves animals. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. We’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future!”

“Allison was, by far, the best dog sitter I’ve ever had (in the 10+ years of having dog sitters). She took care of the boys like they were her own. She took care of my house the same as well. This was the first time I’ve ever come home from a trip and NOT had the house smell like dog because the sitter didn’t sweep the floor. She vacuumed, swept, mopped, took out the trash, and even cleaned the bedclothes she used. I came home to some very happy boys who didnt seem worse for the wear AT ALL. She sent videos and took them on walks several times a day. Wish I found her sooner. Can’t recommend her enough!”

I work but when I have free time I would love to help! I am unable to in my home. But at clients homes I will let the dogs outside, take them on walks and play with them outside as well. I will feed them if needed and make sure that they have enough water as well! Also if medication is needed I would be able to help with that with training on how the family does it!

“Andrew took good care of my dogs for three days. He sent picture and video updates and kept my place clean. I’ll be booking with Andrew again.”

About: I have had and cared for pets my entire life. Highly experienced with dogs and cats from puppy/kittens to seniors. I am comfortable enough with all animals that with some instruction I can care for anything. Experience in administering medication, even with cats. Patient with all animal personalities. I am very detail oriented and thorough. Reliable and great with instructions. I love animals and since semi-retiring I thought it would be nice to spend time caring for them when owners are on vacation or just need a little extra help. I practice reward based motivation. Semi-retired with plenty of time to play with and care for your animals. Happy to care for in home or take for walks. I can do multiple drop-ins a day. I am very good with instructions and will abide by any house rules and needs required for your pet. Experience house and pet sitting prior to joining Rover.

“Kept Jaxon company as needed, no real problems but a little sparse with communication/updates.”
