About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and have hands on experience with puppies, high energy dogs, and caring for multiple dogs at once. I work part time at a dog grooming shop as a bather, I interact with many different dogs. What sets me apart is my patience, attentiveness, and ability to adapt to each dog’s unique personality and routine. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, bathing, basic training reinforcement, and giving dogs plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I genuinely treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits into my schedule as I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible but structured routine. I’m able to balance my job while still making time for pet care during my off days, mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m reliable with planning ahead so I can make sure each pet gets consistent attention, walks, and care without feeling rushed. Even with a part-time job, I prioritize being fully present and dependable when I’m caring for animals. In my client’s home, I always follow their instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their normal routine. I make sure pets are safe, supervised, and never left unattended for long periods. I keep water fresh, follow feeding schedules, and provide regular walks, playtime, and attention. I’m careful with doors, leashes, and any safety concerns to prevent escapes or accidents. I also respect the home by keeping it clean, organized, and treating it with care, just like I would my own.
“Kyla was amazing!! She dropped in many times throughout the weekend to feed, change our kitties water, and spend some time playing with them! Our kitties & family both loved her and will be surely returning for services as she is very professional, so so kind, and truly has a huge heart for animals!! 😇”
“Our dogs love Paige! She is punctual, friendly, professional, and has been flexible if weather means needing to modify our visit schedule. Would recommend and will continue to use Paige to help care for our dogs!”
“Jordan was a wonderful sitter and took such great care of my cat while my husband and I were on a long trip. She was consistent with her care and provided detailed updates and adorable pictures. Our chronically shy cat really warmed up to Jordan and they were fast friends. As a bonus, Jordan’s sons were welcome and respectful additions. I loved that our cat got to interact with multiple caring people while we were away.”
“Thos was my first time using a dog sitter and Rover. I was nervous. Claire was great a reassuring me, assisting with using Rover to adjust my original request, and sending me pictures to show how she was doing. She reached out regarding issues and worked to get Cinnamon to adjust to her. I appreciated her greatly! Would definitely use River and Claire again.”
“Elizabeth did a great job of taking care of my cats. She came everyday and sat with them too… a first in pet sitting for me. Incredibly trustworthy, super sweet, and a pleasure to meet; will be booking Elizabeth on my next trip away, for sure!”
About: I grew up surrounded by animals and my family and friends have counted on me to take care of their furry friends! I love to go on walks, play, and of course hangout as well! I work part time, however my schedule is flexible so I can always make time for your animals especially if I have a heads up prior to taking care of them. I love to play so if your animal has any toys they love I’ll be sure they get plenty of play time with them. I also love the outdoors so if that is of interest for your animal we can have plenty of outdoor time! I also am able to crate your animal if needed.
“Man am I grateful to have found Brittney! Reliable, knowledgeable and responsive! It is so comforting to know I can leave my big crazy puppy and old grumpy dog in her hands! Whew, what a relief. Stef L.”
“Gabriel did a fantastic job with communication, photos, and videos. He came right as expected and went above and beyond on the job. He is truly a wonderful pet sitter that anyone can trust!”
About: I have 2 dogs of my own. I’ll treat your pets as if they’re part of my family. I have experience giving insulin injections and oral meds. I’ve cared for puppies to senior dogs. I have experience with dogs with behavioral issues and special needs. I’d love to help care for your pets. I am available daily for drop-ins, walking, playtime in the clients home. I’m also available for overnight stays with your pets in the comfort of your own home. I provide a meet and greet to meet you and your pets to understand your daily routine. I’ll focus on maintaining this routine while you’re at work or away.
About: I have dog sat my entire life, in home stays and daily visits. Cats have been my world recently and I have had several dogs since I was born including my soul dog. All animals are a friend of mine! I love pets of all shapes, sizes, and abilities. I had a senior cat for several years and am very comfortable with any additional medication or needs your pet may have! I am currently working from home, so I am able to accommodate most pet care requests! For boarding, I have no pets in home and a fenced in yard. I have cat and dog sat in home. Both as full time and drop-in. I am comfortable with whatever and happy to assist! My current house has a fenced in yard.
“We are so pleased with the service that Iris provided for our senior kitty, Marilyn, while we were away on vacation! Iris was a great communicator throughout and very patient and thorough with the care she provided. Iris exudes a true love and passion for animals. We would highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: I’ve loved Dogs and Cats for as long as I can remember. I’ve had cats since I was 5 years old, and they’ve always been an important part of my life. I had my 1st dog in middle school so ,I grew up playing with them, sleeping next to them, and caring for them every day. Being around cats and dogs brings me so much joy, and I understand how to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I will care for your cat or dog as if they were my own. Cats are part of my daily life. I don’t have dogs but I love it and also was my daily life when I live with my parents. On Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, I’m home most of the time, so I can give them plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. During the week, I’m available from 5 PM until the next morning, and I love spending my evenings relaxing with cats by my side. In my routine, cats are never alone—they are always with me, receiving love and care. Having a dog should not be a probleem :) When caring for cats and dogs in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their feeding schedule, keep their litter box clean, afternoon walks,play with them, give them plenty of attention and affection, and respect their personality and routine. I enjoy spending quality time with cats, whether they want to play, cuddle, or simply relax nearby.Trust me i will not fail:)
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 also work part-time for the Indiana Pacers and I’m in culinary school as well. 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!
“Christina was awesome! She sent multiple pictures and made sure that Theo was well taken care of during her drop in visit. We will definitely be booking her again in the future ?”
About: Hello, my name is Hailey! I currently work full-time through the week (Sun-Thurs 10-6) and am looking to make extra cash doing what I love - spending time with dogs! I previously have worked at a dog boarding center in Whitestown, Indiana, making me suitable to take care of your pet, whether it be feeding, exercising, or even medicating them for you while you’re away at work, traveling, whatever the case may be! While I have experience with all kinds of animals, currently I have two large breed dogs, an Australian Shepherd mix who is 6 years old and an Alaskan Malamute who is 7 years old! Both are dog and people friendly, so your dog can have a playmate, or we can arrange your pet to have space to him/herself if necessary! As I have worked for a business that is used to various pets having various needs, I will do my best to accommodate you in any way necessary! I also am used to working with cats (as the dog boarding also has a cat portion as well) so I am more than happy to help your feline friends, too! Hope to see you soon! I have open availability outside of Sun-Thurs 10-6. I work hard to make sure that I am transparent about the time I have to spend with your pets! I have a lot of experience watching other people’s pets, as well as being a lifelong owner of dogs. I love all breeds and ages!

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 Lapel 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lapel. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
