“Beth was amazing! Her communication was great and she was very responsive. She made sure so send pictures everyday and communicate any issues with me. I highly recommend! My mind was definitely at ease knowing my cat’s care was in her hands! :)”
“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.”
“Shay is the bestest cat sitter I’ve ever had! She’s so communicative about caring for my cat and sends the cutest pictures I’ve seen! I know my cat will be in great hands when Shay watches her and I hope to see that Shay’s available everytime I need a sitter because she’s just the absolute best! Thank you, Shay ☺️”
About: I have been pet-sitting for 5 years. I have a dog of my own as well and know how important it is to be able to trust who you are leaving your companion with. I care for each pet like they are my own and make sure they are cared for while you are away! I am able to accomodate the schedule and routine you need for your pet's needs and am able to be flexible to ensure all your pet's needs are met! I am able to accurately follow all directions you leave when caring for your pet in your home. If dog walking services are what you are looking for, I am able to walk as long as your pet needs!
“Giovanni did a good job taking my care our needy cats for a week. We came back to 5 healthy cats. He also continued to leave food out for the neighborhood cat that frequents our home.”
About: I have had pets my entire life, and I have a lot of experience with all types of dogs and cats. I have experience with young and old pets. I’m currently available Monday through Friday after 5pm and anytime on the weekends. I love spending time with all pets! I am available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I am currently unavailable to board animals, but I am available to stay at a clients home. I hope that staying in your pets environment will decrease the stress of a new person in their space
“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! ☺️”
“Natalie is so sweet and so easy to work with. Our pups were well taken care of and she communicated the whole way through. Our pups can’t wait for our next vacation so Natalie gets to come play again!”
“Hannah was absolutely amazing! My fur baby loved her. She is super responsive to messages, and sends great photos of your pet while you’re away. I’ve never felt so at ease with a sitter. Will definitely rebook with Hannah!”
About: I’ve cared for family dogs and cats my entire life! I am very active and would love to have new fur friends to go on walks with and care for! I am free mostly Monday through Wednesday and can make some weekends work as well! I’m able to drop in and take care of your babies or take them on walks! I am able to handle bigger dogs and I have a vehicle so I come to your house or take the pets to dog park or trails!
About: I've taken care of all types of dogs and cats from all age ranges. I love animals, and I have been animal-sitting since I was around 12 years old, for about 7 years. The biggest skills I have are being able to spend extra time with the animals to make them feel loved while you are away. I am currently working part-time and attending school part-time during the summer. I am very available to take care of your animals during the morning, day, and evening. I like to spend between 15 and 30 minutes with the animals between visits to make them feel loved, so they are less stressed. I make sure they are well fed and exercised daily and are enjoying their time while you are away.
“Patiance was amazing with my cat! She sent lots of updates and took excellent care of him while watching him at my place for a week. She even cleaned the apartment before I returned - I didn’t have to worry about litter, trash, or any other little messes. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in future!”
About: I have been a dog and cat owner for about 10 years now and along with that, have also been dog and cat sitting for friends and families for about 3 years now. This includes checking in on their pets throughout the day and staying with their pets overnight for up to 10 days at a time! I work about 4 days a week ( Monday- Tuesday and Thursday- Friday) but my hours are very flexible at my job so I am able to come and go when necessary. My typical work day hours are 10:30-5:30 in West Lafayette. I am very respectful of your space and home, so when I am watching your animals, I will only touch/ move things as necessary to provide the best possible care to your pets without invading environment. I promise to maintain your privacy and do what I need to do to provide my pet care services in a timely and respectful manner!
About: I have taken care of my own and other’s pets for over ten years. I currently have two cats of my own. I can’t wait to care for your furry friend! I am currently working part-time and I am completing my online graduate degree, so I have flexibility to care for your pets whenever you need! I am comfortable doing a wide variety of activities with your pets. I have experience watching pets while owners are away as well as boarding in my home.
About: Ian and Mya have taken care of all sizes and types of dogs, including dogs with special needs and at various stages of potty training. We are former Purdue Cross Country and Track runners, and still maintain an active lifestyle, so we can go on as many walks or runs as you request. We train our labrador Sunny daily, and have received numerous feedback from friends on how well-trained she is, as well as how loved and cared for she is (she truly is our fur baby!). We like to treat other people’s pets like they are our own while they are with us, so if you are comfortable, we often like to give a complementary brush, bath, and nail trim:) Ian's schedule is flexible, working on a post-baccalaureate research project both virtually and in-person, while Mya works primarily from home as she finishes her graduate degree. We are grateful for our current flexibility to provide personalized, attentive care to Sunny, and any dog that we care for! Every morning we take Sunny out to use the bathroom first thing, and then we then quickly head inside for her to go to her "place", do a little bit of training, and then give her an "eat" command to eat her breakfast. We let breakfast settle for at least an hour while we eat and drink our coffee, before any walking for Sunny to eliminate the risk of bloat (which is a serious and prevalent issue for large dogs). While we work from home throughout the day, Sunny plays with her toys and naps. As it begins to cool off, we head out on a nice long off leash walk in the evening. We let Sunny out as needed throughout the day, and we normally spend some time walking around the Celery Bog during our work breaks, to watch the wildlife together. For dinner, we follow a similar routine as breakfast, but occasionally will use her dinner kibble for further training or rewards, such as nail trimmings, specific skill work, brushing, etc. We administer Sunny's daily medication at dinner, either on top of her food, or by safely placing the pill in the back of her mouth. After her last evening potty break, and before bed, Sunny loves to have at least 10-15 minutes of play time and focused attention for cuddling. Sunny is crate trained, but we also have a Furbo in our main living space, to ensure she is safe if we leave her to nap on the couch when we are gone. Your pup will follow a similar routine as Sunny, unless otherwise specified. We are happy to accomodate for you:)
