“Derrick is the best! He has been taking care of my animals when I need help for the last 10+ years. He is responsible, attentive, loving and nurturing. He loves all animals and has been an animal advocate since the day I met him. If you are needing a sitter, he is your guy!”

About: Experience administering medication, walking, feeding, and snuggling pets. Looking for work during the summer/into the school year! Available to start immediately, hardworking, and committed to the job! I’m starting my senior year at Ball State, but I’m looking for work during the week and weekends. I enjoy taking walks and exercising after class. I live in an apartment with a large plot of grass next to the building, plenty of space to run around. Willing to exercise dogs in backyards, via walk, or even a trip to the dog park. I’ve also walked cats on leashes and in strollers.

“Erin was amazing with my dog Lark. She made extra efforts to help walk Lark while I was on vacation and even when I was back and not feeling well. She was so caring and wonderful with Lark. . I cannot recommend her enough.”
4. Kaitlin B.
“Kaitlin has taken great care of my animals for years. She runs a very busy household and has the understanding and patience to deal with any energy level. I have to coax my dog to come back home to me every time we visit. I look for her exclusively when I’m in a bind and need pet care.”
5. Thin K.
About: I’ve taken care of one shitzu and terrier mix and one German shepherd which are my uncle’s pets as he is most of the time on a work trip. I would looked after them on weekends and holidays. I’m used to feeding them, taking a walk and potty breaks and giving them a bath. Right now, I’m on summer break and I am not looking for a part time job or anything so I have lots of free time to look after your puppies! I don’t have any pets at my home but I’m confident that I can keep them safe and comfortable in my home! I’ll make sure to be tailored to any specific requirements or needs of each pet!

“Stephanie is very good with pets she love being with them and taking care of them you can not get a better person.I would trust her with mine.”
8. Ella M.
“Ella is one of my best friends and she has been walking and dog sitting my ESA when I either need a break or I'm busy with work. She's also insisted me with dog/pet related chores and maintenance, like keeping Marion calm while I clean her ears or brush her teeth. She's even knitted Marion a sweater for the winter time! My ESA is named Marion, she's a "mystery breed" Or mutt. And she adores Ella. Ella is also one of the few people I trust in my private space (i.e. my dorm room or family home), alone with my pet who I consider as my baby. She's never complained when I've asked her to dog sit, if anything shes always happy to do it. Marion trusts and loves Ella and I trust and love Ella. She's a good dog sitter and overall a good person.”
9. Amara L.
“Amara is a wonderful and very reliable dog sitter and dog walker. She was always on time, connected with our dog quickly, filled out the report card and was always available if we had additional questions. We can highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to watch your dog.”
10. Noah H.
“Noah watched our dog for 9-10 days while we went to Florida. He took amazing care of him. He sent pictures frequently and even kept our house clean. He is a very responsible young man who loves animals. He also took care of our hamster and cat while we were away. I highly recommend him if you are looking for someone to watch your fur babies.”
11. Caroline D.
“Caroline did an exceptional job caring for our cat and elderly dog during our recent vacation. She went above and beyond just walking, feeding and cleaning -really taking the time to love and play with our pets during our absence. Usually, our dog is very anxious when we are absent, but she was calm and happy upon our return this time. We highly recommend Caroline for loving care of your pets.”

About: I have been pet sitting my families pets for over a year. I love all animals but I have a special place in my heart for dogs. In my free time I also walk dogs in animal shelters. I am working part time so I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I just recently got out of high school and am looking for more jobs working with animals. I have one energetic dog and 2 cats at my home. I can easily crate your dog/s if needed. I do not have a fenced in backyard so I will have to take your dog out on a leash. I can walk/ take your dog on as many adventures as needed!

15. Chloe B.
About: I’ve had pets pretty much all my life. They each become a part of me and stay in my heart forever. I’ve had cats, dogs, fish, birds, and I have cared for them along with bunnies and snakes when I worked at the shelter. I love my pets dearly and will treat your pets with as much love. I currently have more open availability in the mornings so I would be able to check in on your pets for you while you run your errands or you’re at work. Give them the love and attention that you want to give them, but unfortunately aren’t able to. I wake up in the mornings and give my babies food and fresh water. Give them attention once they wake up a little bit. I check their bowls periodically when I’m home and change the water at night and give them a little more food before bed. Along with nighttime cuddles because house are important. I wake up in the morning and take care of my cats first thing. Get them food. I wash their water bowl out and get them fresh water. I give them attention after they wake up a little bit more. I pay attention to their body signs and try to give them what they need. I love and care for my pets and I will do the same for yours.

Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:
- Start and stop times
- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
