“Kim, went above and beyond caring for Yogi. She is very experienced with dogs and we are so thankful for her. We were so pleased how she wanted to make sure Yogi was well cared for and comfortable while we were away. Thank you Kim for everything we are so lucky to have you.”

About: I have a unique blend of experience that enables me to give the highest quality of care. I've been a pet mom for 15 years to dogs, cats, and pigs. I also founded and run an animal rescue since 2020. In addition, I spent a year training at a wildlife rehab facility. Essentially, I have devoted my life to making sure animals feel loved and cared for. Your precious baby will be in the best hands! I am very flexible with my schedule and am happy to work around what is best for you and your pets! I have plenty of time to make sure your babies are well cared for and have proper enrichment! I will come to you, so that your pet feels safe and happy in their own environment. Earning their trust is essential and very important to me. All companion animals deserve respect, to feel safe, loved, and have lots of enrichment.

About: I’ve grown up caring for animals my entire life and have experience with dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, and many different personalities and energy levels. I’ve also spent time living on a farm, which taught me how to responsibly care for animals and understand their individual needs. I previously ran my own dog-walking, training, and pet-sitting business for several years, giving me hands-on experience with exercise, basic training, feeding, playtime, and providing pets with plenty of attention and companionship. I’m comfortable caring for pets in their own homes and understand how important it is for them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m also a proud pet parent to three cats and a puppy of my own, so I understand firsthand how much love, attention, patience, and care pets deserve every day. My own pets are truly family, and I treat every animal I care for with that same level of love and attention. I’m currently self-employed, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. I’m able to work around your pet’s routine and accommodate walks, drop-ins, sitting, and boarding depending on your needs. I’m happy to discuss scheduling in advance and make sure your pets receive consistent care and attention while you’re away. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for every pet in my care. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, exercise routines, and any special needs. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home, so I treat every animal with patience, respect, and the same care I would give my own pets.

About: While I’m newer to professional pet care, I’ve always loved animals and taken time to learn how to properly care for them. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to instructions. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, giving fresh water, cleaning up after pets, taking safe walks, and providing playtime and affection. I understand how important pets are to their families, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for at all times. Pet care actually fits really well into my high school schedule especially since i don’t have a job yet. It’s flexible, low stress, and you can choose what works for me When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and bedtime routines. I make sure your pet has fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention. I provide gentle play, calm companionship, and safe supervision during visits. I also send updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is being well cared for while you’re away. I treat every home and pet with respect, patience, and responsibility, and I always put your pet’s safety and comfort first.

For four years i volunteered at NAWS animal shelter in Mokena where i walked and scoialized with both cats and dogs. Also in that time i fostered 4 dogs til they could find proper homes.

I am really looking forward to meeting all the furry friends in the area and cant wait too meet them. Any dog is my kind of dog. Since I am a teacher I am usually busy during the week. However, I am sometimes available in evenings and mostly available on the weekends. I have a fenced in yard however my dog is picky and prefers walks over being let out into the fenced yard. Therefore she is walked by my family every morning and evening.

“Maria was great. I scheduled her for a couple of drop in visits on a day we were going to be gone all day. She contacted me an hour before her first visit because there was rain in the forecast. She asked about how the dogs were in the rain and checked to see if she should walk them or plan for the backyard. She sent pictures and communication was great. I’ve already scheduled her for an upcoming overnight stay.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and love caring for them! I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember, including my current black Labrador, and at 25 years old, I’ve gained plenty of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and personalities. In college, I helped care for five different cats belonging to my roommates over four years, giving me experience with feline companions as well. What sets me apart is my dedication to meeting each pet’s unique needs. I have experience caring for puppies, kittens, senior cats, and senior dogs, and I’m skilled at administering medications and following precise feeding instructions. I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, enrichment time, and mental stimulation, and I’m happy to continue any established training routines. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to every pet’s needs. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or ensuring they feel safe and loved, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’d be thrilled to provide loving care for your pets! I work full-time but am passionate about caring for pets in my free time. I’m available for sittings and check-ins on weekends and weekday evenings after 4 PM. I aim to provide flexible and reliable care to fit your schedule and your pet's needs. I prioritize safety and trust in all my pet care services. I’ll carefully follow your instructions to maintain your pet’s routine and ensure they feel secure in their home environment. Your pet's well-being is my top priority.

About: I’ve have experience taking care of my own four dogs at home, as well as my family/friends’. Additionally, I have volunteered at multiple dog shelters. I am currently working part-time at Spirit Halloween while I wait to be shipped off to the Air Force national guard. My schedule is flexible! I make sure to take them for frequent walks, groom them often, and ensure they are not in the cage for hours at a time.

About: I have had a dog within my household for as long as I can remember! Starting from before I can walk (seriously) up until now! Taking care of dogs is 2nd nature to me since I’ve done it for so long! As of right now I’m available everyday until further notice! I work in construction so summers get busier than winters, and right now it’s been raining everyday so it gives me a lot of free time! I have a fenced in backyard for when my three dogs are outside. When they are inside I have beds for each of them to sleep in when it’s time for bed. They also have crates that I use for them only when I am leaving the house for a while in order for any accidents or unnecessary destruction of furniture.

About: I have years of experience working in kennels and animal hospitals as well as my own pets. I moved cross country with no pets and I feel this is perfect to love on your pets without the financial commitment of my own while I’m studying. I’ve nursed 2 very sick elderly cats. I blind and deaf both needing fluids and medication. I’ve nursed another with insulin and diet control. I’ve helped transition puppies to being well trained pups. I’ve been a dog walker and kennel worker. I just miss having the comfort of animals around me and felt this would be a perfect solution to have your pets for a couple days until I graduate and can dedicate my time and attention to a pet again. I am a dental hygiene student please be respectful of my time

About: I grew up on a farm and we've always had 3 dogs and 2 cats along with a plethora of other animals. I know how to ensure safety and have a clear head when things go awry. I absolutely adore dogs and cats of all ages and can competently take care of any range of behaviors. I'm a ballerina and a personal trainer. But I will absolutely check in, walk or play with your pet any chance that I get! Normally it would be in the morning or near the evening. My schedule is more open on the weekends. I am a very precautious person when it comes to the safety of your pets. I always double check instructions and make sure the door or cage is secure before I leave. I also will give them all the love and attention they could want.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot recommend Maaliyah enough! She was absolutely wonderful with my French Bulldog, Chloe, and Boston Terrier, Celine! From the very beginning, she was incredibly sweet, professional, and communicative. She made sure she understood everything about my girls and their routines, and even asked thoughtful questions to ensure they were comfortable and properly cared for. Maaliyah was kind enough to accommodate my last-minute booking, which I truly appreciated! She kept me updated throughout her visits, and it gave me so much peace of mind knowing my babies were in such caring and attentive hands. Both of my girls love attention, and I could tell Maaliyah treated them with the same love and patience I would. She was also extremely understanding and respectful of my home, especially since I had just moved in. It’s not always easy trusting someone new with your fur babies, but Maaliyah made the entire experience stress-free. I’m beyond grateful for her help and will absolutely be booking with her again! If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, compassionate, attentive, and genuinely loves animals, Maaliyah is your girl! Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of Celine and Chloe! 🐾💕

Luz was an excellent care taker for our baby boy! She was very detailed in her updates and sent plenty of pictures! Her knowledge of caring for dogs definitely came in handy since our boy suffers from a bit of anxiety. She was able to asses when he was a little nervous and give his medication when needed. Our corgi can very hyper and insistent, so he needs someone with a calming and centered personality to bring him some peace and that's definitely what Luz brings to her caring service. He enjoyed her undivided attention and walks. We 100% would book again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their hyper but sweet dog 🐶 ❤️. Thank you Luz!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Munster

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Munster is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $37 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 9,696 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Munster. 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.

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 Munster 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.

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.

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.

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

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Munster. On Rover:

  • 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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.
