“Once again Issabella has done a great job taking care of my house and two cats! Every time she sends a picture update you can tell they’re so relaxed and happy in her care. She also follows any specific care instructions as directed which is great. I’ll continue to rebook for future overnights and vacations.”

“Jessie was so so so amazing!!! Beyond professional and asked us so many thorough questions during the meet and greet we felt really good about leaving our babies in her care while out of the country!! We were able to have a relaxing vacation knowing our animals and house were safe !!”

“Heidi was wonderful! She was very personable when she came to do the meet-and-greet with the dogs and patiently listened to all of my details about my furbabies. I preferred more communication than less, which she provided every visit, most even with pictures. I could tell the dogs were well taken care of while I was away for the week. I will definitely be booking with Heidi again!”


About: I've been taking care of animals since I was 5 when I got my first dog, and I've been caring for animals ever since! I've cared for many different species, such as dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, cows, fish, and a couple of reptiles! I'm always looking for new animal friends and would love to meet yours! I'm currently a full time college student, and have two classes a day. I will be available for pet care at all hours other than 10-11am, and 12-1pm during my classes. I have a nice big hallway for your pet if a kennel is needed, and I have great access to a nice, safe walking path, plus a big yard for pets to play. I am very adaptable and can make anything work!

About: My family has always owned a dog. Ever since I was young, my family and friends have relied on me to care for their animals, whether it be a walk, or an overnight sit. I’m a current Ball State Social Work grad student and love paying visits to the local Animal Shelter in my free time! I am a part time grad student at Ball State University, and also work part time at a daycare. I still have a lot of free time I’d like to fill throughout the week doing something I love, like taking care of animals. I am very attentive when it comes to caring for other peoples babies. Safety for myself and the pet is my number one priority. I do have a fenced in big back yard, and I also live right next to campus!
About: Experienced in caring for dogs from bottle fed newborns to extra needs seniors. I’ve lived on farms for a number of years and have a lot of hands on experience with an array of animals all ages and litters. Also experienced in basic positive feedback training and/or just giving your animal the love and care they deserve! I work from home so am basically available all day everyday. I can provide 24/7 care to your pet in the ways that are most comfortable for you i.e how frequently you want potty breaks to be done, feeding times, any training you want them to keep up with ect. I have a big fenced yard and two sweet dogs to keep your pet company! I can also easily crate your pet if and when you feel comfortable or keep them out and playing all day!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I have a Great Pyrenees mix and Golden Retriever at home. In high school I helped train the golden retriever. This past year I have also been dog sitting an enthusiastic and energetic Australian Shepard. At my college house, I have also been helping train a one year old Golden Retriever puppy. I really enjoy running in my free time so I would be happy to run or walk your dog! I recently just graduated from Ball State University and am now in my first year of medical school. I currently have no other commitments outside of pet sitting and studying hard for school! I would care for your pet like my own! I would love to play with you pet if they are high energy or just chill and hang out with your pet inside if they just want company. I also love to be outside so I would be happy to go on walks or runs with your pet.
About: I have gained the reputation in my neighborhood to be the one to call for any pet needs. I’ve taken care dogs, cats, even chickens and I love every second of it. I am currently a college student and I am taking classes over the summer. I am basically free all the time and I am able to schedule my week around pet care. I have pets at home so I will not be able to bring animals into it. I will care for animals at the clients home, allowing the animal to be comfortable in its own environment.
About: I have adopted several dogs from shelters over the years; all being larger breeds like German shepherds / shepherd mix as well as being both elderly and special needs dogs. This means I have experience in giving dogs medication, and giving them extra attention for any needs they may need. While they have been elderly that didn’t impair them for going out on long walks, or being large strong dogs; making me confident in my ability to safely walk almost any dog outdoors. While I've done a lot of stuff with older dogs that doesn't stop me from being able to keep up with a young energetic pup either! I have also helped out several friends with pet sitting their dogs many times. This has also given me experience in dealing with nervous / anxious dogs and their needs. I work a job that allows me to work from my (or your) home on most days and have no other set obligations. I do not have a job that comes with surprise emergencies, so once I agree to a time, I will be able to make it. You know how to take care of your pet, it's my job to imitate that while you are gone so they can feel safe or less anxious while you are away. With my experience with shelter adoptions, I understand that some pets may need special care and feel up to most such challenges. Honesty is my policy. While I don’t expect it, if there is something I am uncomfortable with, a task or sadly your pet and I aren’t compatible, I'd clearly say so at our first meeting allowing you the time to search for other options.
About: I’ve recently started to pet sit/house sit for my friends and their families for the past year. That pool of friends/family has continued to grow because of my attention to detail, eagerness, and flexibility to what you and your pet need! :) I am a teacher, so while I am gone most of the day, my early morning and entire evening can be dedicated to making sure your pet is getting what they need! When I am pet sitting, I make sure to place that commitment over other things to make sure your pet’s needs are being met! I am willing/able to maintain any routine you currently have with your pet! I am also known to clean and remake the bed before I leave, as well as throw in other additional cleaning. Gotta leave spaces better than you found them! ;)
About: With four years of professional kennel experience, I understand that every dog has unique needs and personalities. I go beyond basic pet care, providing attentive, personalized care that gives your dog the comfort and routine they’re used to as if it were you. From playtime and exercise to medication management, I bring a trained eye to every detail, ensuring your pup is safe, happy, and stress-free. I’m always excited to make a new furry friend and treat them like family! I am currently a student at Ball State University with a part time job. I am looking to eventually quit there and continue doing something I have a deep love for which is animals. I only have classes a couple hours a day with an hour break around noon. I am looking to fill up my mornings and evenings with a care that I deeply enjoy and am passionate about! For house sitting, I stay overnight and follow the pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. I provide companionship, keep the home clean, and send regular updates with photos to keep the owner informed and reassured. For drop-in visits, I stop by three times a day for about 20 minutes each visit. During each drop in I handle feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and basic care, while making sure to send detailed updates and pictures after every visit.
About: Over the course of my life, I’ve been around and cared for animals. My friends have asked me to take care of mostly cats, but I’ve also looked after smaller/medium sized dogs, and a few different reptiles. I am good with dogs at almost any age, but especially older dogs. With cats, I can do just about any age! I’ve taken care of cats in my own home since I was 5. I’ve bathed cats, dogs, reptiles, and I can give necessary care if it’s needed! I currently have a very open schedule and am able to give animals proper attention! If I so happen to have plans, my calendar should be updated. I am also open to negotiate time, just contact me! Currently my little cat is more accustomed to the indoors and is not used to being around many other animals, because of this, it is preferable (and by preferable I mean I cannot sit for your animal in my home) that I sit in my client’s home! I would need to know the basics such as: where your pets food is, toys, cleaning supplies in case of emergencies, and any other special or necessary things you would like me to do regarding your animal (if there are any). On a side note: I am no official expert by any means, but I am one to be observant of your animals behavior. This of course means I understand when your animal needs food, wants to play, or needs to use the bathroom, but I also means that I can read emotions pretty well. I can read expressions of animals fairly well and I’m usually able to tell if something is bothering them. If you believe something is bothering them, please don’t hesitate to tell me as I will try my best to investigate! I believe animals show us what is wrong with them through their own signs of communication. If I’m able to help in anyway, I will!
“Latoosa was very kind and patient with my paisley . Paisley can take some getting used to, but they eventually became friends. I highly recommend her and hope to use her again in the near future.”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 6 years old, and love going on walks and spending quality with pups. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for both young puppies and sweet senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. My goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I'm currently home full-time, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pup all of the love and care they need! While I don’t have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised - either on walks or a secure lead. I will follow your pet’s routine for feeding, walks, play, and rest, making sure they are safe, happy, and loved. Whether at my home or yours, I treat every pet like family and keep you updated throughout the stay!
About: I have the freedom to go anywhere needed with the ability to drive. I can also take care of the pets special needs such as giving medicine. I enjoy walking and playing. My little dog has a big dog attitude, so when she gets aggressive I know how to handle her, and keep a safe distance not letting anyone get hurt. I am a full time student at BGSU, and living on campus. I can do check ins during the weekdays, and I am able to stay overnight if needed at anytime. On the weekends I should be available at anytime and stay for however long is needed. I have a fenced in backyard, and a small dog that goes through the doggy door. I am always available to open the door to let your pet out at anytime. I walk my dog around the neighborhood 3 or more times around the week at least.
“I’d recommend Summer any day! She connected so well with Anzo and sent many pictures of their activities they did.. even sent a video of the result of wild winds from the storm to let me know what had happened and tried to fix it. She is tidy and considerate. She even made doggy treats for Anzo’s bday, sang to her and sent my 12 yr old the video!!”

About: Since I could walk, I’ve had animals in my life. I’ve helped care for animals of all kinds ranging from fish, cats and dogs to chickens and horses! Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns. I am currently off work and have open availability to take care of your furry friend(s)! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out and I will get back to you ASAP! Currently, I have 3 cats, a Chihuahua and a 30 gallon fish tank. As far as my cats go, I feed them canned food and have dry food out regularly. They have yearly vet visits and I keep them up-to-date on boosters. My cats are enriched with cuddles, playtime and scratchers in multiple places throughout my place. They love to be brushed often as well. My dog, Butterball, has his nails filed as often as needed and he loves cuddles under the blanket while watching tv. He goes outside on a lead multiple times a day. My fish tank is cleaned and maintained biweekly. I also always have spring water on hand to keep water levels appropriate.
About: I have pet sit for many years. I love meeting new animals. I enjoy pet sitting because as a social worker I am able to come home to an animal and sent time with them. Animals are the way I cope. I have plenty of time to play with animals in the evenings and weekends. My schedule is very open for this and I am excited to have this opportunity I will ensure to keep everything the way I found it or even better. I know animals do best in their own environment so I have no problem being in other peoples homes. I show respect.

Muncie pet parents share their Rover experiences
Taylor/ Annalise - Thank you for taking such great care of Bizzy while we were gone! I’m always nervous leaving him for long periods of time but Taylor reassured us every day. She cared for Bizzy, while also taking care of our home & even cleaned up before we got back! Bizzy definitely gained a friend & we noticed he missed Taylor after she was gone! We will be booking again & again! :)

Anna was absolutely amazing! She was extremely communicative the entire time and kept me updated with messages and photos, which made me feel so comfortable being away. She took my 10 month old puppy, Winnie, on so many walks (which she LOVES) and gave her tons of attention. I felt completely at ease having Anna both in my home and with Winnie. I truly couldn’t recommend her more, we’ll definitely be booking her again!
