About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life, especially cats, and have extensive experience independently caring for multiple pets at once. I understand animal behavior well, respect their boundaries, and prioritize both their physical health and emotional well-being. I’ve trained puppies, cared for friends’ and family pets, and even rescued injured animals and brought them to rehabilitation centers. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for! Every day I make sure my cats have food and fresh water, and I refill their water multiple times throughout the day. I clean their litter box daily to keep their environment clean and comfortable. I make sure to spend time playing with them every day as well as brush them weekly/as needed. In addition, I make sure my home is kept at a comfortable temperature by using air conditioning or heat as needed with access to warm/cool spots in the house for them to go if they wish. Their health, comfort, and happiness are very important to me. I make sure pets always have fresh food and water, a clean living space, and plenty of attention. I strictly follow any instructions provided by the owner, monitor pets for signs of illness or stress, keep the environment safe and secure, and ensure they are comfortable at all times.

“I am so happy that I was introduced to Karissa through my regular Rover dog walker… she is amazing!!! It was instantly clear in our meet and greet that she loves fur babies of all kinds and would take great care of mine while I’m away. I am so appreciative of her extra effort and willingness to drive a very long distance (twice a day!) so my dog can enjoy his long walks/fetch sessions- most people would never do that. She is punctual, reliable, thorough, quick to answer messages, and very caring- my highest recommendation 💖.”

About: I have owned dogs and cats my entire life! I volunteered for the Indianapolis Humane Society for 2 years where I gained experience walking dogs of all energy levels and sizes. I also have experience dog walking for my friends and family. I love all dogs and cats and I am excited to spend time with yours! I am currently home from college for the summer and I am not working, so I have a lot of time to care for your pets! I am available any day of the week or the weekend. My house has a fenced in yard and I do not currently own any dogs and cats, so your pet is more than welcome to stay at my house for the day. I am aware of near by emergency pet care facilities in case of emergency. I am very conscious of how I hold the leash when walking and I ensure that all doors and windows stay shut.

“Due to a recent change in employment it meant our dog was going to be left alone a few days a week. He has some separation anxiety and we’ve only had him 5 months so we were delighted to have found Haley to come and walk Boscoe and spend some time with him. Haley came prepared with questions for our meet and greet and was accommodating to our request to start a week earlier than we had originally requested. If it’s raining and he’s not feeling a walk she does enrichment activities with him. I love the recaps of their time together and the pictures she sends. Haley is very quick to respond to requests. We have a ongoing booking with Haley for weekly walks!”

“Deontae has been a godsend! My large breed dog is too big for me to walk safely with my medical restrictions and he was going stir crazy with no way to exercise. He is loving his walks with Deontae now and is much calmer and happier all around.”

“Mari was great with our pet, Mali G. He is quick to respond and Mali G really enjoyed their walks this week. We received the report cards and it was easy to communicate via the Rover app. We look forward to having our pet in good hands with Mari the next time, he is great with pets!”

Sveta P.

“Melissa was great, very professional and helped us out tremendously.”

Garrett H.

“Erin is amazing, she has great communication and always keeps me updated. Gio really enjoys her and was instantly comfortable with her. We will definitely be rebooking!”

Jordan B.

“We had the great service of Gianna for the second time for dog walking services. She was comforting to us knowing that she would take care of our dog’s exercise needs while we were out of town again. She was always prompt and kept tabs on the weather. We hope to utilize Gianna’s services again in the future!”

“Allison is incredible. She was able to walk my pup on such short notice and was so great. She’s kind and very good with dogs. My pup loved her and received great care. Will definitely turn to Allison again.”

About: I treat every pet like family. I have hands on experience caring for my own 16 year old dog, so I’m comfortable with the patience and extra attention senior pets often need. I also fostered dogs in college, giving me experience with pets of different personalities and needs. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or cuddles, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I currently care for my senior dog every day while doing freelance work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide walks, drop in visits, and attentive care. I’m available throughout the week and can easily accommodate your pet’s needs. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. At my home, I have a fully fenced yard for plenty of outdoor time, a friendly senior dog, dog gates if pets need their own space, carpet that’s great for senior dogs, and lots of toys and healthy treats. If I’m in your home, I’ll stick to your pet’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel relaxed while you’re away.

“Our dog is pretty high maintenance and Raven is FANTASTIC with him. He is about 75 pounds of pure energy and she is great with him on walks and in the house. Thank you Raven for taking such good care of our boy!”

Kaelie R.

“Ollie was great. She showed up right on time (actually right on time for the earlier we time we asked her to switch to last minute.) She took our boy on a nice long walk and filled out the Rover card (info. about how/what he did). Very much appreciated.”

Esty R.

“Zoe is amazing with our two pups. Even in this cold weather, she insisted she could walk them and she did. When she’s not scheduled the dogs will start trying to be walked. Scratching at backdoor and going to the basket for leashes.”

Marcella R.

“This was our 1st time with Melissa and it was a great experience. She sent many pictures and walked Bowie a far distance. We look forward to booking with her again.”

“Lydia has been such a life saver for me! I recently moved to Indy from out of state and needed to find someone to take my sweet German Shepherd, Arya, on walks and play with her since I’ve been working long hours. Lydia also has a Shepherd, which really puts me at ease since they are such high energy pups! She has now been walking Arya regularly and I’m so happy to have her. She always gives me a report and takes photos of Arya, which just makes me smile and know she’s in great hands. 🙌”

About: I grew up with cats and dogs and have been a pet sitter for friends, family, and colleagues for over a decade. I have hands-on experience working as kennel staff in a veterinary office that also provided dog and cat boarding. Through this experience, I learned a lot about pet care, different breeds and temperaments, and animal medical care. I also previously worked at a dog and cat grooming business. Both these jobs taught me attentiveness and calmness around animals. I am confident in caring for cats and dogs, including walking, playing, feeding, administering medications, following instructions, and maintaining their routine while giving them lots of love. I am comfortable with puppies/kittens all the way to senior animals. I pride myself in being reliable and building trust with both pet and owner. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize clear communication so owners feel at ease while they’re away. Depending on the service(s) needed, I am potentially available any day of the week. I work a typical 9-5 job Monday through Friday, but I am able to work remote at least once a week and to leave for breaks to go back and give dogs a potty break or administer medications. If I am pet sitting on a remote work day, then I will work from wherever your pet is. I take pet care seriously and will be sure to communicate my schedule and follow as closely to what your pet is used to. I can pet sit at your home so that your pets can remain in a familiar location. I respect that the home belongs to you and your pet(s). I will be sure to follow the given instructions regarding the home and the pet care. I prioritize keeping your pet's routine as consistent as I am able to and make sure they receive both basic care (food, water, bathroom) as well as attention, play, and affection.

“Thank you, Monica! I appreciate the care you take with my pup 🐶 ❤️”

“Erin took wonderful care of our pups for 2 full years! I felt confident with the care they received while with Erin. She was reliable and flexible when things came up. Erin was easy to communicate with and highly responsive! We, puppies included, are sad we are moving away and will no longer be able keep Erin as our dog walker. Thank you Erin!”
