About: I grew up on a farm so the care for all furry animals is somewhat second nature to me, especially to the good, bad, and the ugly. Over the years, I had my fair share of experience loving and looking after dogs, cats, sheep, horses, cows, and even chickens. My experience with dogs were primarily during my youth, and the sizes my pups were small to medium dogs. But, I never shy away from larger dogs, but that is to say traing for larger dogs would be an area where I would learn/grow to ensure that your pet is in good hands. I'm currently working full-time as an Architectural Designer, but I have an affinity to care for fur babies during my free time. My current schedule allows me to care for your pets during: WEEKENDS - all day MONDAY - Before 8, between 11-12, and after 5 FRIDAY - Before 8, between 11-13, and after 5 HOLIDAYS - ONLY - Easter weekend & 4th of July Under my care, your pupps to adult/senior dogs would expect: Daily Walks and Outdoor Play: I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of exercise and fresh air tailored to their energy level. Interactive Play Sessions: From fetch to tug-of-war to puzzle toys, I’ll keep their mind and body engaged. Mental Enrichment Activities: I offer stimulating games like treat puzzles, training games, and sensory activities to keep them sharp and happy. Customized Routines: I adjust activities based on your pet’s age, breed, and personality — from active play for energetic pups to gentle strolls for seniors. Socialization Opportunities: (With your permission) I can introduce safe, supervised interactions with other friendly pets for healthy social enrichment. Training Reinforcement: I’ll happily practice basic commands and manners during our time together to support any training you’ve started/already established. Affection and Attention: Emotional health is important too! I make sure every pet gets quality cuddle time, encouragement, and loving care.
“Very communicative! I knew hazy was in good hands”
“Teresa is an angel! She takes fantastic care of my golden retriever pup, Mavvy, and is incredibly reliable. Very grateful to have her and would highly recommend?l!”
About: I have had numerous pets my entire life and am a huge animal lover who is eager to help out other animal owners with pet care! :) I am currently working a remote job that allows me to be available all through out the day and on weekends for any pet care needs I currently live in an apartment so I am able to take dogs outside for exercise and potty breaks. I have one super friendly dog to keep you dog company!
“Jessica was wonderful! Was able to meet for a meet and greet on short notice, communicated really clearly and quickly, sent pictures from her walk with my pup and she is so kind! Dolly was so happy when I got home today, thankful for Jessica for taking her on a great little walk while I was away from home!”
About: 4 years ago, I got myself a puppy and completely trained him myself. I have also been dog-sitting my friends dogs since 2 years now! I absolutely love dogs and know that people have relied on me to walk, feed, and look after their pets for the same reason :) I am currently a full time student at IU, however, I’ve listed the times I’m available below! Monday: 3pm onwards Wednesday: 3pm onwards Friday: 5-11pm Sunday: 2pm onwards I have a pet friendly apartment and loads of toys to keep your fur baby busy! I also have a friendly dog and cat to keep your pet company!
About: I insisted on adopting my first dog from the shelter at the age of 11. Adopted another (very needy) pitbull mix at 21. Am used to dogs of all attitudes, breeds, and needs! Happy to run with an active dog or keep company with a mellow one. They're really doing me the favor by hanging out with me. Animals have always been my first love. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have experience in a combination of nannying/housesitting/pet care and am able to balance a myriad of responsibilities at one time. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. Looking forward to speaking with you and meeting your best friends! I am self employed and make my own schedule. I work from home most days and can have a pet with me while I work or can arrange check-ins around my schedule. I respect animals and spaces as my own and leave them better than I found them! Pets are welcome in my home which includes a patio, outdoor potty spot, and plenty of nearby walking trails.
About: I love dogs more than most people. I will remember your pets name, but probably won’t remember yours lol my best friend is my dog Teagan Blu. She is a 11 year old shepherd mix. While I am caring for your baby my Teagan will be staying with her grandmother so we don’t add any stress or anxiety to your babies. My goal is to make your pet comfortable feel stress free and safe. I will do my absolute best to accommodate any routines and schedules that you have in place. I have cared for all ages and sizes 💙💚First time ever booking on Rover?

About: As a lifelong animal lover and advocate, I believe every pet deserves love, patience, and compassionate care. I've been surrounded by dogs since childhood, helping raise everything from playful puppies to gentle giants. I understand that every dog has its own unique personality and needs, and I take the time to provide care tailored to them—whether that means energetic playtime, comforting companionship, or a gentle hand for senior pets. Your furry friend will be treated like family, with plenty of belly rubs, long walks, and attentive care to ensure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you're away! Caring for pets is something I genuinely love and prioritize in my daily routine. Whether it’s stopping by for a walk, playtime, feeding, or companionship, I ensure each visit is structured around the pet’s needs. I’m flexible and attentive, making sure they stick to their routine as closely as possible... whether that means morning walks, afternoon cuddles, or evening meals. My goal is to provide them with comfort, consistency, and care while their owners are away. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on maintaining a safe, familiar, and stress-free environment. I follow any instructions provided to ensure their routine stays consistent, from feeding schedules to medication needs and favorite playtime activities. I always respect the pet’s space and personality... whether they need lots of attention or prefer a quiet presence. Safety is my top priority, so I ensure doors and gates are secure, keep a watchful eye during walks, and provide plenty of love and reassurance so they feel at ease while their owners are away.
About: I can still remember my brothers and I begging my mom for our first puppy when I was about 8 years old! Since then I’ve grown up with dogs in my life, until I went off to college. I haven’t adopted one of my own, but in the meantime I’d love to take care of all of the cute dogs in my neighborhood! I have my own photography business so my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m somehow both a routine person and someone that likes to switch it up, so it’s fun to have different things to break up my schedule! I’m a rule follower—always have been, always will be! I understand that dogs have needs, boundaries, and interests like the rest of us. I’m here to respect those, as well as their parents/owners requests!
About: My first job growing up was the neighborhood dog walker. So dogs have always been a part of my life! My family has always fostered all kinds of dogs. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets while family and friends were out of town and have been a reliable house sitter since middle school. There’s nothing I enjoy more than spending time with and loving on dogs while their owners are away! I work full-time with a flexible schedule, allowing me to work from home on Fridays and dedicate my weekends to spending quality time with your pet. I love taking long walks before and after work, or a quick stroll during lunch. I’m also a big fan of playing fetch and visiting dog parks—of course, if they’re allowed! I will treat them as if they were my own, prioritizing their safety and ensuring I follow all the rules. I understand they are your beloved pet, and I will make sure to respect any boundaries, avoiding anything that’s not allowed or outside of their usual routine. I’m excited to be your pets new best friend(:

“So patient with my very nervous dog, and went above and beyond for him! Would absolutely recommend”
About: I’m very dependable, responsible, and trustworthy. I’ve spent a lot of time with my friends’ dogs, and have been babysitting since I was a teenager! I’m also a barista, so I’ve got great attention to detail and will make sure to take great care of your pet. I work full time in-person, but I can come check on your pet during lunch. And I have pretty open availability these days! We can definitely discuss your needs and work something out :) You let me know exactly what your pet needs! I’m happy to adapt to any special requests. Going on a long walk with a dog is one of my favorite activities.
“We were looking for a flexible walker for our pup a few times a week and Nick has been a great fit! Punctual, has been quick to contact me with feedback about walks, and my pup seems pretty happy about getting more exercise. Seemed to really love dogs during our meet and greet and I think he's a good fit for this type of work. Definitely recommend him!”

“By having Christina as your caretaker, you would be receiving the whole package. She herself has experience with being around pets and making sure that they recieve all the attention that is needed and wanted. When a problem occurs, I am immediately notified of the situation, while I am in dispare, Christina ensures me that the issue in hand will be taken care of. I've never had a second thought wondering if I've chosen the right care taker. Thunder had never been expressed concerned and is always left satisfied and waiting for the next time Christina would come.”
