“Zachary was incredibly responsive and also left detailed notes after each visit. You can tell that he’s very observant and wants the best for your pet. I totally trust him with my pet’s care!”

“Beth is amazing as a sitter. She is always on time, replied fast to my messages and took great care of my cat. This was the first time I had to leave my cat alone for this long and my trip would have been very stressful if it wasn’t for Beth’s help.”

About: I’ve handled hundreds of dogs & cats over the years including senior & disabled pets. I have endless patience and love for all animals ensuring a kind safe place for your pet while in my care. I currently work full-time at an animal shelter, which is only two minutes away from my house. Your pet will have a safe, private space to rest and enjoy the sun inside. I’m open to any specialized care your pet needs. Play time, Dog walking, scooping the yard while outside, scooping litter, specialized feeding. Whatever I can do for you that involves your pets I’ll do my best.
About: I’ve grown up with all kinds of animals. I have always loved them and they typically love me too. I’m a college student hoping to make some extra money doing something I enjoy. My schedule is pretty flexible so I can be available most weekends all day. Last minute plans are no problem for me and I am happy to help whenever. I have two cat who comes to college with me. We move around a lot so I am used to finding ways to make them more comfortable and happy in a stressful time.
About: I’m a second-year veterinary student who’s been working in vet clinics since high school. I also have a degree in Animal Sciences. I’ve cared for animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. My veterinary background gives me confidence handling medical needs, administering medications, and recognizing signs of stress or illness early on. As a second-year vet student, I balance classes with plenty of free time in the evenings for pet care. I’m available most weekdays after 6 p.m. and on weekends for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. My schedule is flexible and I am willing to work with you to meet your pet's needs! I have a fenced in yard at my house. I also have a friendly dog who loves to play with other animals. My background in veterinary medicine helps me stay attentive to each pet’s health, comfort, and emotional well-being.
“Marissa came through for us with caring for our Boots. Our kitty was happy and we were so much more comfortable leaving Boots due to Marissa! She took the extra time to communicate effectively and quickly. I highly recommend this Rover person, especially those who have energetic dogs and cats. She is very knowledgeable, pleasant, and supportive.”

“Olivia was responsive to my last-minute request and super flexible! I’m so bummed that she’s heading away for school already, but will definitely be reaching out to her again when she’s home from break! Thanks for taking good care of Birdie, Olivia! ☺️”

“We were so blessed to have Millie take care of our kitten, Sokka! She did a great job with him! He’s happy and healthy after our 6 day vacation. Thanks for everything, Millie!!”

“Giovanni did a great job taking care of my two cats! Even my feisty loner cat seemed to enjoy his company. He was very communicative and sent plenty of pictures throughout his stay. The house was exactly as we left it, and he followed all our instructions perfectly! We would definitely book with Giovanni again if we weren’t moving!”

“Alyssa was amazing with my cats! They are usually super scared of others and they didn't run off and hide, so that is saying a lot! Very attentive and thorough, daily updates with photos and communication. Will hire again for sure!”

About: Hi there! I’ve had dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine life without them. I’ve personally raised and trained three of my own and love dogs of every breed, size, and personality. I’m confident giving commands, going on safe, controlled walks, and caring for pets in a way that keeps them happy and comfortable. I’ve hosted dogs in my home as part of the family. They’re welcome on the couch, the bed, and anywhere they’d normally relax at home. If your dog is crate trained, that’s totally fine too! I’ve successfully trained using crates and will follow whatever routine helps your pup feel secure. Dogs are truly your best friend, always there to comfort you, make you smile, and love you unconditionally. They bring so much joy and deserve all the love and affection in return. That’s exactly how I care for every dog I meet. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in, or an overnight stay, you can count on me to give your dog the same love and attention I give my own. 🐾 I work part-time and have a solid routine in place for my own fur babies at home. Mornings usually start with a potty break or walk if needed, followed by breakfast and a quick house check to make sure everything’s safe and tidy before I head out. I often come home on my lunch breaks to let the dogs out again, and I’m usually home between 4 and 5 in the afternoon for another potty break, dinner, and some relaxing downtime together. I’m flexible with feeding and walk times and can easily adjust my schedule to make sure your pet is comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I genuinely enjoy walks and love including them as part of my daily routine! Since I have two dogs of my own, I don’t offer overnight house sitting, but I’m happy to do drop-in visits and spend quality time with your pets while you’re away. I can come by for walks, playtime with their favorite toy or ball, or even practice basic commands using training treats or a clicker. When your dog stays with me, they’ll be treated just like family, loved, cared for, and included in daily life. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for running and playing. I do my best to follow the same routines and training methods you use at home, so your pet feels comfortable and confident while in my care. Your dog’s happiness, safety, and sense of routine always come first!
About: I have been around dogs my whole life and began to work with dogs at local shelters as well as caring for dogs of friends and family from a young age. I also have experience with cats, fish, guinea pigs and am flexible to learn to care for any animal! I try to make every animal feel at home with me by doing their favorite things like playing with toys, going on walks or to the park or lots of cuddles if that is what they prefer! I have experience with some basic puppy training as well as I have house trained and socialized my own dogs from a young age. I have a full time job but work remotely and have a fairly flexible schedule. I can schedule in walks or pet care visits through the day or evenings. My pup at home is crate trained. We take lots of walks and he also enjoys running around in the fenced in yard and going to the dog park.
About: I have an absolute LOVE! For animals and I have had all kinds from raccoons to goats and to monkeys (obviously dogs though too!). So I know what it takes to care for someone’s pet. I studied at Purdue for Wildlife so if that doesn’t say something about my passion for animals and being outside with animals I don’t know what will! Also I will be doing this because I do love animals and not just for the money, the money is just something nice added on and to help with college expenses (I also am staying in the area during summer so I’m here all year round to become a regular with your family for years to come!). Knowing this you should be completely comfortable knowing your adorable family companion will be in not good but GREAT hands! I love going the extra mile for any animal in my care. I will always make sure I give my full attention/ available time slots to your pet. I will never try scheduling times if I’m unsure if I can fulfill your full needs. I will give all of the cuddles your pet needs (or give them space if they need it) and send tons of pictures. I will make sure they get everything needed such as medicine, food, and exercise.
“Always great with our animals, no matter what animal it is!! Saved us on a last second booking due to our original arrangements falling through last second. Thank you so much!!”

About: I am an early childhood educator and I spend time with human children all day. After school I'd love to spend some time with your four legged children! I have a cat and dog of my own and know how special they are! Let me know how I can help you! I have been walking for my own health and if I can help you and your fur baby that makes it even better. I am responsible and punctual. I am reliable and will communicate any changes, needs or concerns with you promptly. Thank you! I have a consistent 8-4 schedule, so it is easy for me to schedule your fur babies around my regular workday! I can do drop ins before and after work and do walks in the afternoon. I will do what is best for your pet! If they need me to sit with them for an hour while they eat I can do that. If they need a walk and then some cuddles I will do that! Whatever they need to have a good time while they are in my care!
“Emily did a great job checking in on our two fur babies while we were on vacation. Loved that she tried to engage with our two cats during each visit. So thankful for the daily updates and pictures knowing they were ok! Thank you Emily!!”

“Wow!!! First time using Rover. It was very easy. But this review is for Emily and her fiancé. I took my cat Fluffy over for a meet and greet. Before we even met Emily and her fiance, a customer of theirs told us out side that we are going to Love them, they are great! Fluffy warmed up to Emily very quickly. Before leaving that day I was convinced Emily was the best decision for Fluffy. While away she sends updates and pictures. Very informative and responsive. I had no worries at all. I can't say enough good about this family. I know they are loving and kind. I feel like they treat each pet as their own. You will not be disappointed!! We will definitely be using them again in the Future.”

About: I grew up on a cattle farm with two dogs (inside) and 10 cats (6 inside/outside and 4 outside). I am very experienced with the care that animals need and I will give them the care and attention that they need. I have experience giving medication to my own animals so I can give medication to a pet if needed. I am used to playing with my own dogs outside and at the end of the day I cuddle with them on the couch. I am a part time student at Penn Foster online with their vet tech program and a full time Animal Care Technician at Purdue University. I excel at belly rubs and head pats. I will treat your animals like my own and my pets are my children. I work full time at Purdue University as an Animal Care Technician so I care for all animals on the daily. I also have my pets at home as well. I always make sure that the animal is comfortable, fed, watered, and feels safe in my presence. I love to give attention and comfort to all animals.
