About: I have had pets my entire life. From dogs and cats, to reptiles, fish and rodents! I’m very good at training. I have been caring for pets since I was 10 years old, starting with an elderly ladies puppy cocker spaniel. I’m also very patient, and I love activities like walking, and playing. I currently have mornings from 6am-4pm available. I have night classes from 5pm-11pm Monday-Thursday. My weekends are available with open availability being Friday-Sunday I have a fenced in yard, with one dog, one cat, and one Betta! We have a feeding schedule, we take walks, and so mentally stimulating activities such as training and puzzles

About: My family and I have owned dogs since before I can remember, and I have helped take care of them, as well as petsit for others, since I was old enough to do so on my own. I am a generally calm and affectionate person around dogs, which makes me a good fit for more anxious/nervous dogs. I currently work on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, which leaves weekends and Monday/Friday open for me to house/petsit! On Mondays I am free in the mornings and after 5pm, and on Fridays + weekends I am completely free. As I have my own anxious dog at home who really prefers to be a single dog, I am more comfortable housesitting than boarding. I am adaptable to most dog schedules, and am used to both high energy and low energy dogs.

“We have some dogs that take a few visits to get to know and Chelsi was able to earn their trust. She is always on time for her visits, communicates well for bookings and during her visits, and we feel good about her caring for our dogs while we are gone. I would definitely recommend Chelsi as a responsible and caring pet sitter.”

About: I’ve had 2 pups for over a decade. Bonzo is my first born, a 12yr old Mini Aussie. He’s a trip and great with my kids. Recently lost my 15yr old Sheba Inu/German Shepherd mix. Akai was the love of my life. Not so great with the kids when they became mobile. We had a couple warning bites when the kids were toddlers. Everyone said to get rid of him, but I wouldn’t even consider it. Akai was telling the kids “he doesn’t like that” and the kids needed to learn to respect that. I understand and respect pups, sometimes better than people. I can try to teach the basics to a pup, but definitely not a dog trainer. I’ve considered getting another pup, but Akai was one of a kind. Instead I thought I could share my extra puppy love with other pups. I’m a single mom with two school age kids. So I am available during school hours, 8am-1pm. During the summer my schedule will vary, but mostly available every day of the week. My pup is one of the kids. I give him just as much love and attention as my kids. We have a fenced in backyard and quiet street for walks, if I decide to offer daycare or boarding.

About: I have been a dog owner for 5 years and have experience taking care of diabetic dogs. I volunteer at animal shelter weekly so I have experience interacting with big and small dog breeds with some behavioral issues. I currently work a 7 to 4 full time job Monday through Fridays. Weekends are my best availability, but I am open to doing drops in friday night if needed. I follow clients' instructions and understand that pets and owners need to follow a certain routine or schedule to be comfortable with a caretaker while owners are away.

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and enjoy making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and responsible, and I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. My experience with pets includes caring for dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, and other small animals, including feeding, walks, playtime, giving lots of attention, and keeping their environment clean and comfortable. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and any special instructions you provide. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play, enjoys a relaxing cuddle, or needs a little extra patience to feel comfortable around someone new, I’ll take the time to get to know them and make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m also happy to keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Feline drop-in care fits incredibly well into my daily routine because cats naturally appreciate structured, predictable visits rather than round-the-clock supervision. Because I focus strictly on non-live-in services, I can easily coordinate my schedule to arrive at your home during your cat's preferred morning or evening feeding windows. This setup allows me to give your cat my completely undivided attention for essential routine tasks, fresh food, and dedicated playtime, while comfortably balancing my other daytime dog walking and professional commitments. I know that cats thrive on consistency and familiarity. During each drop-in visit to your home, my priority is keeping your cat safe, relaxed, and happy by focusing on three main areas: Routine & Health Maintenance Fresh Food & Water: Feeding exactly according to your instructions and washing bowls daily to prevent bacteria. Meticulous Litter Box Care: Scooping the litter box during every single visit and sweeping up any tracking around the box. Medication Administration: Safely administering any necessary pills, supplements, or specialized care your cat requires. Affection & Companionship Respecting Their Boundaries: Letting your cat set the pace—whether they want immediate head scratches or prefer to observe me from a safe distance. Interactive Play & Socialization: Engaging energetic cats with wand toys, lasers, or catnip to keep them stimulated.Comforting Presence: Spending quiet time in the room for shy or independent cats so they never feel entirely alone. Communication & Home Security Daily Updates: Sending you a detailed text update alongside photos or videos of your cat during every visit so you have total peace of mind.Basic Home Care: Bringing in mail/packages, watering plants, taking out the trash, and adjusting lights so your home looks active and secure.

About: Every pet deserves personalized care, patience, and genuine attention—not just someone stopping by to check a box. I take the time to get to know each dog’s and cat’s unique personality, routine, and needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. When you book with me, your pet receives dependable, one-on-one care that includes fresh food and water, potty breaks, exercise or playtime, lots of affection, and close attention to their well-being. I also provide detailed updates and photos after every visit, so you’ll always know how your furry family member is doing. I believe reliability, communication, and treating every pet like they’re my own are what set me apart. My goal is simple: to give you complete peace of mind while making sure your pet is happy, comfortable, and cared for until you return home I currently work a full-time job during nights Monday through Thursday. I can accommodate and flex my schedule where I’m available any time around 11am-3pm on these days. Days outside my regular full-time position, I can make myself free for whatever is needed. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is providing a safe, loving, and stress-free environment that keeps their routine as consistent as possible. In your home, I follow your pet’s daily schedule, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of attention and affection. I respect your home as if it were my own and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know how your pet is doing. If your pet stays in my home, they’ll receive a clean, comfortable, and supervised environment with plenty of exercise, enrichment, and one-on-one attention. I make sure they have opportunities to play, rest, and stick to their normal feeding and potty schedule to help them feel relaxed and at home. Every pet is unique, so I take the time to understand their personality, preferences, and any special instructions. Whether they’re energetic, shy, young, or senior, I provide patient, compassionate care tailored to their individual needs. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, loved, and well cared for, while giving owners complete peace of mind until they’re reunited.

About: I work from home Monday - Friday so your lovable friend will be consistently monitored, I have a two story home with three bedrooms however it’s just my husband and I with our three cats so lots of space, I also have a fenced in backyard and live in a walkable neighborhood in Cumberland Indiana if your pet needs to be walked. ☺️ I’ve had several years of hands-on experience caring for cats with a wide range of personalities, including shy, independent, high-energy, and more strong-willed (‘spicy’) temperaments. My experience comes from raising and caring for my own three cats, each with very different needs and behaviors. I’ve worked closely with rescue cats and understand the patience and consistency required to help them feel safe and comfortable in a new environment. I’m very attentive to body language and behavioral cues, which allows me to adjust my care style to each pet’s comfort level. In my home, I provide a calm, structured, and low-stress environment. I have the ability to separate pets if needed, making it ideal for animals who are shy, anxious, or prefer their own space. I prioritize cleanliness, routine, and safety at all times. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care for pets throughout the day. I have several automatic feeders and scheduled wet food times, along with fresh water bowls, so meals are always on time. My husband also comes home at the same time each day, providing extra hands and supervision to ensure pets feel safe and attended to. Our home has a predictable routine, which helps cats feel comfortable and secure. I’m able to adjust playtime, attention, or quiet time to match each pet’s personality, whether they prefer independent relaxation or interactive enrichment. My home is a calm, secure space for pets, located in a safe neighborhood. It’s just my husband, our three cats, and me—no kids—so the environment is quiet and low-traffic. I have multiple rooms available to help cats adjust comfortably, so shy or independent pets can have their own space, while those who enjoy company can stay nearby in my home office while I work. Caring for my own three cats gives me firsthand experience with multi-cat dynamics, and I know how to manage interactions to ensure all pets feel safe and stress-free. I maintain a clean, structured environment with consistent routines, monitored feeding and hydration, and lots of attention to comfort and enrichment. Whether your pet needs quiet personal space or friendly companionship, I tailor their care to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while you’re away.

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! I want to give you and your pet the highest care and respect possible. 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.

About: I have been responsible for dogs for most of my life. I absolutely LOVE dogs. I have loved and cared for every breed of dog from a 4 lb teacup chihuahua to my now 80+ lb St. berdoodle, Luca. I currently work from home, so I’ll always be with your fur baby, and my Luca. I have the flexibility to potty breaks as needed and can accommodate just about any routine needed to make your dogs stay comfortable! I unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a screened in porch, Luca and I hang out on the porch pretty often to get the fresh air he loves. Potty breaks will all be leashed, and weather permitting we can walk down to the dog park for some additional fun! Luca has been coined the “gentle giant” from his sitter we met from Rover. He will tire your dog out wanting to play, but no fear, nothing but nice, just LOVES to run and play - with any size friends!

Trinity was great with communication and came to meet my pup and i for a meet and greet. My pup was instantly comfortable with her and i knew they were a great fit! Trinity came the next day and walked my dog for almost a whole hour in the cold snowy weather and we couldn’t have been more grateful he got the best night sleep! I would highly recommend her for helping with your animals. I will definitely be using her again.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - New Palestine

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in New Palestine on Rover is $20 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 per visit. 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 October 2026, there are 2,565 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across New Palestine. 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 New Palestine 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 New Palestine with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
