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!
“Karen took such great care of our furry companions. I loved that we got a visit card at the start & end of the visits. I haven’t gotten those before from other sitters. We would certainly have Karen look after our doggies again.”
“Kristina is very sweet and communicative. My pets instantly felt comfortable with her during the meet and greet-even my shy baby. I’ve enjoyed booking her and will continue to book her to watch over my fur babies.”
“Kelsey has become our regular cat sitter for when we are out of town. My girls remember her each time and at this last visit started rolling over and asking her for belly pets signifying their trust for her. We love having a trusted pet sitter that can come to our home and take care of our beloved pets.”
About: I've had young dogs and old dogs for the past 14 years! I currently have two silly Shihtzus that I love to death. I have had a weiner dog and cockapoo before for years and loved them so much. I am an avid runner and walker (40+ miles weekly) so I would love to take your pets for a walk/run! I'm currently between jobs so I am quite available as long as I'm not running a road race! I tend to get up at 5am and sleep around 9pm. I have experience crating dogs if needed. I typically will rinse out any water bowls and scrub food bowls for cleanliness before serving their next meal. I try to brush my dogs fur to avoid tangled ends at least every other day, so I am comfortable helping with that.
“I’m sorry I fat-fingered my address - DUH! (I’ve corrected it.). Thanks so much for your help. Ron’s kids and grandkids are in Ohio so we go frequently and it doesn’t work to take the dogs. Glad to have found Rover so we don’t have to board them. Thanks so much!”
“Jenna has been an incredible asset to us and a new friend to our dog Winston. She was dependable and there to take care of Winston. His care and the ability to keep him out of a kennel is very important to us. Jena did a great job!”
“Jasmine looked in on Madison all week. This is the first time Madison was alone so I was especially nervous. She took direction well and made necessary adjustments to make sure Madison as as comfortable as possible. I will be re-booking!”
“Julie was great! Very communicative and attentive. She was great with my dog and was willing to drop in on short notice. I would definitely use her again when going on short trips.”
About: ➡️ I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, growing up with as many as 10 cats at once! As an adult, I’ve had three dogs who were part of our family from puppyhood through their senior years, so I’m comfortable caring for pets at every stage of life. ➡️ I’ve also dog-sat for family members’ dogs many times over the years, always free of charge…perks of being family! ➡️ My partner has also been around dogs and cats for many years, so caring for animals is something we both enjoy. ➡️ We’re also home to an adorable and super-friendly Chinese hamster named Kenji, who would love to meet your furry friends! Kenji is both very laid-back and curious, depending on the time of day. ➡️ I’m home the vast majority of the week and readily available to give your pet plenty of attention. I share custody of my children, so depending on the week, your pet may have quiet one-on-one time with us or enjoy the company of my kids, who will be happy to help give your animals plenty of love and attention. ➡️ We have a one-acre grassy field directly behind our home that provides plenty of space for walks and potty breaks, and our community also has its own fenced-in dog park. We also love hiking and would be thrilled to take your pup along for an adventure! ➡️ We no longer have dogs or cats of our own as they have all crossed over the rainbow bridge, so your pet will receive lots of personalized, one-on-one attention. We’d love the opportunity to give your furry family member a safe, loving, and comfortable home away from home! ⭐️ I have a consistent and very flexible schedule that allows me to be home and available for pets throughout most of the week. My work schedule is approximately four hours on Mondays and Wednesdays during the school year. Aside from those hours, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, reliable care. ⭐️ I also share custody of my three children as mentioned, and our household schedule is predictable. That will allow me to plan around each pet’s individual needs. Some weeks are quieter and other weeks your pet will have the added company of my kids, depending on the dates of your booking. ⭐️ With my flexible availability, I’m happy to follow your pet’s established routines to help them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. ⭐️ I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where pets can receive plenty of individual attention and supervision. Since we do not currently have dogs or cats of our own, your pet can enjoy one-on-one care without having to share the space with other animals. ⭐️ Your pet will be free to roam throughout the common areas of our home and will be welcome in bedrooms with supervision, since those areas have carpeted flooring. If you prefer your pet to be crated at any point, I’m happy to follow your instructions. Depending on the size of your pet, you may need to provide an appropriately sized crate. ⭐️ For outdoor time, I use a leash and collar provided by you and provide walks and potty breaks in the very large grassy area directly behind our home. Our community also has a fenced dog park for appropriate dogs who enjoy more space to play. ⭐️ I’m happy to follow your pet’s established routines and any specific instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, and exercise needs. Since no two pets are exactly alike, I want to make sure your pet’s individual personality, needs, and routines are respected throughout their stay. I will always prioritize safe handling and make sure your pet is secure, comfortable, and well cared for.
“Kimberly was amazing! Such a stress free vacation knowing that she was taking care of our boys! She even went over and above and went over in the evening when we had had a terrible storm and one of our cats is terribly afraid of them...I can't recommend her more and will definitely be using her again!...Thank you Kimberly for loving our little guys!!”
About: Dogs have always been family to me. I’m a behavioral trainer and founder of A Happy Dog’s Life Rescue. I love dogs of all sizes and have plenty of hands-on experience with large dogs, small dogs, shy personalities, energetic pups, and seniors. My focus is on dog walks and drop-in visits, giving your pets love, attention, and consistency while you’re at work or away. Whether your dog needs a good walk, a leisurely sniff around the neighborhood, a potty break, meals, playtime, or just some company, I’ll tailor our time to their needs and your instructions. Through rescue work, I’ve learned how important patience and trust are. I take time to get to know each dog’s personality and comfort level, especially those who need a little extra time to warm up. One of my favorite things about pet sitting has always been seeing dogs remember me—even after a long time between visits! I love building those lasting relationships and becoming a familiar face your dog is excited to see. You can expect photo updates, clear communication, and thoughtful care so you feel connected while you’re away.
“Thank you for being able to stop by and look in on our dog while we were at the game. It gave us peace of mind knowing that our dog would have a little visit and companion while we were out for part of the day. I would certainly call on Cameron again and hopefully he will be available. It was nice to leave our dog in the comfort of his home and have a drop in visit to ensure his comfort.”
“I can’t even begin to describe how amazing Jenilee was. My cat is a bit feisty and not the most friendly, but immediately warmed up to Jenilee and started rubbing against her. Jenilee was super nice and accommodating; we had a little meet and greet sesh before I booked her services. She was extremely attentive and followed my instructions to the T. When my trip got pushed back and I couldn’t return home in time, Jenilee was really understanding and had not issues extending. She really put me at east with daily updates and videos of my cat”
About: I grew up with pets, and love being around pups! I don’t have any of my own and for that reason, getting to take care of your pup is a true joy for me. I love hearing even the smallest details about your beloved pet so that I can give them as much care as you do! I’m a stay-at-home mom with daily availability to make house visits or go on walks. My teen sons also enjoy pet sitting/ dog walking and may accompany me at times. I strive to give them the same love and care you do! I am a detailed oriented person who you can be confident will attempt to hear and follow all of your instructions, making sure your pet is in good hands! Pet parents know all the individual qualities about their pet— what they like to do, what scares them, what will help them get in and out of the house, etc. Those are the things I appreciate knowing.

Lauren is absolutely amazing! She does drop-in visits for my two dogs and I could not recommend her more—5 stars all the way. She is extremely thoughtful, loving, flexible, and great with communication. I absolutely love the wonderful pictures and detailed updates she provides after each visit. My dogs are so much more relaxed staying at home with her compared to a boarding facility. If you want peace of mind and happy pets, hire Lauren!
Savannah originally came to us for daily fluid sessions for my senior cat, and she has since grown into the person I trust with my whole household, four cats with very different personalities and medical needs. Most recently she visited while I was away, and she did far more than feed them. She played with them, spent real time with each one, gave medications gently and correctly, which is genuinely not easy with a fragile senior cat, and sent me updates that let me actually focus on being away instead of worrying. I came home to relaxed, well fed, emotionally settled and happy cats. More than a few things set Savannah apart. Every single one of my cats is comfortable with her, including the shy and skittish ones who normally vanish when anyone else walks in, and watching them choose to be around her still surprises me in the best way. She truly cares about my cats and their care, and regularly offers thoughtful ideas that have genuinely helped my sick cat’s healing. She continues to adjust to how my cat is feeling on any given day instead of just going through the motions. And beyond all the skill, she is simply a wonderful human being with a great sense of humor. When you are caring for chronically ill pets, things get heavy, and having someone who knows how to lighten the mood while still taking the work completely seriously is a gift. Gentle hands, a sharp mind, total reliability, and a heart for the animals. If your pets need medication, fluids, real companionship, or just someone you can trust completely in your home, Savannah is that person. I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone.
We’re so lucky we found Laila on Rover. We had a last minute weekend trip and she took so much of the stress off knowing our boy was going to be well taken care of. She went above and beyond with his walks and cuddles and even sent us quite a bit of pictures while we were gone. We could tell our pup had a good, long weekend with his new friend. We were even greeted by a sweet note when we got home, proving she was the best sitter. Boady is already looking forward to his next adventure with her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in McCordsville is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $22 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,589 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across McCordsville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 McCordsville. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% can help with daily exercise
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
