About: Hi everyone! We have a larger home with both a fenced in backyard and a large unfenced portion. Dogs will always be supervised when they are outside and will have plenty of time to run and play, as well as relax and bring their stimulation back down. We have one dog in the house. Our cat is outside and basically thinks he is a dog.!! Our dog is a giant breed dog and is well trained. We have gone through lots of training with him and feel we have a good understand of dogs, mannerisms and their requirements. It’s important to us that you and your dogs feel comfortable, relaxed and enjoy your time!! I am NEVER gone! I work from home part-time, which is a great time for your pup to decompress in my office with me or wherever they please. Then we play play play!! Your dog will have as much, or as little attention as it needs and will have a calm and comforting environment to relax in! I work part-time from home so I am able to work around any schedule you prefer! I am home all the time and can give ample time for lovings and fun! The most important thing is understanding each dog’s needs. Some dogs like high-energy environments with lots of mental stimulation, while others need calm, quiet environment when their owner is gone. I typically take one dog at a time!
About: I have had pets my whole life. I currently have a dog and a pet tortoise. I have also pet sat for friends dogs and mini pigs. I'm ready to treat your family like my family I work full time second shift at the local sheriff department as a dispatcher. My dog is not crated during this time. I do come home on my hour lunch break and let her out and play with her. I have a tie out for potty breaks and a large house to run around. Also visits to the dog park or tractor supply for a bath and some treats.
About: I have experience caring for many species of pets and livestock. Dogs have always been a part of my life, and I've bred, raised, trained, and cared for many dogs in my lifetime. I currently have a dog, cats, a turtle, and a chicken of my own. I've worked professionally with dogs and cats as a vet assistant. Time with animals is well-spent. I'm currently working full-time, but I have time for drop-in care or dog walking on weekends. I have transportation and am willing to work in all seasons. I will provide needed pet services as arranged in your home/property, including feeding, watering, walking, cleaning litterboxes/replacing waste pads, and most importantly, treating your pet with care and dignity.
About: Ive dog sat for my sisters who both have giant dogs more than I can count and I’ve kept my fathers friends service dog. I love animals and it just feels right I currently work part time so it’s easy to work something out ! All I ask is to ask and let me see what I can do to help! I currently don’t have a dog but I’m looking! My yard isn’t fenced but it it however quite big and if needed I will walk them out there with a leach! My house is big and they are allowed to come inside!
“Absolutely perfect visit with Kari! She was very descriptive in her activities with our pup and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Would definitely recommend and will be using them again!”

About: I am not a professional but sometimes I believe that’s okay. I’ve had dogs since I can remember. I’ve always had such a big heart when it comes to animals. I worked at a shelter while I was in high school and the hardest for me was not bringin them all to my house. I have two dogs of my own. They’re both older girls and very very laid back and friendly. I think every dog has personality of their own and that’s what is beautiful about dogs. I think taking care of dogs is more than a chore or a job, i think it’s more of passion. In my opinion you have to love dogs to be able to take care of them the way they need. I hope I can be what you’re looking for.
About: I will genuinely treat your pups like my own! I’ve had pets ever since I can remember - dogs, cats, & even fish. Today, I'm a proud plant & cat mom. Because I love traveling myself, I totally know how stressful it is to leave your babies behind & how important it is to have reliable, trustworthy help you can count on. I love taking dogs on adventures, whether that’s hitting trails to burn off energy or just enjoying a long, sniff filled neighborhood walk. I have experience with all kinds of personalities from high energy pups who want to play non stop, to sweet seniors who just want a slow stroll & some good couch cuddles. I love sending lots of photo updates & making sure your dogs feel safe, happy, & loved! I have a super flexible schedule. My days are open enough that I can easily prioritize structured potty breaks & long walks, without having to rush back to a strict 9-5 desk job. In my home your pet becomes a part of the family! My place is a pet friendly environment where they can fully relax & get cozy. While I don’t have a fence, I have a massive yard with a secure lead, so the dogs can get plenty of space while staying safe. Plus, they’ll get tons of attention & plenty of couch cuddles! If I’m coming to your house for a walk or a drop in, I’ll treat your space with total respect. I’ll strictly follow whatever routine you have for feeding, crating, or locking up. I'm always mindful of the little things like wiping muddy paws if it's rainy & making sure the water bowl is totally fresh before I leave. Plus, you can definitely count on lots of fun photo updates so you know exactly how great they’re doing! Whether your pet is hanging out at my place or I’m visiting yours, making sure they feel safe and comfortable is my biggest priority.
About: I’ve had a variety of pets over the years. Dogs, cats, reptiles, and even small animals. In the past I even worked as a Pet Care Manager at a local PetSmart. My own cats are lovable and quirky and I can’t imagine not having them in my life. I work from 730a-430p M-F. I can make trips early in the morning and then after work at night. My availability for the weekends and most holidays are wide open. One of my cats has asthma so we break down her playtime into 10 minute blocks. My own cats get wet food and dry food with litterbox cleaning 2x a week with a deep cleaning every 2 weeks. both of mind are super social so i spend a lot of time petting and grooming them with their fav brush.
About: I offer reliable, attentive care for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether your pup loves long walks, quiet company, or playtime in the yard, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, consistent, and experienced with both high energy dogs and those who prefer a slower pace. My goal is to keep their routine steady, provide plenty of attention, and treat every dog like they’re my own. I will always do my best to follow your pets schedule each day to help create a low stress stable environment. Please reach out to me for special requests. I care for every pet as if they were my own, with patience, consistency, and attention to detail. For new clients I like to try and have a introduction to help build trust and familiarity. During walks and drop in visits, I make sure dogs get the right mix of exercise, structure, and positive interaction to keep them happy and healthy. For overnight stays, I focus on maintaining their normal routine meals, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection so they feel secure and comfortable in their own home. My approach is calm, reliable, and based on understanding each pet’s unique personality and needs.
About: I’ve volunteered at the zoo for five years, working in the pavilion. I’ve also had first hand experience with my own pets! I’ve taken care of fish, cats, and dogs. I’m also studying veterinary nursing at Purdue University and I’m trying to gain the most experience I can with animals! I care for two cats and a fish every single day at home. As well as dog sitting for family and friends nearby. Things like feeding, bathing, walking, and more is all apart of my week. I treat all animals with respect and do whatever is asked of me. I feed them, I wash them, I can play with them or take them on walks. Any animal necessity’s I can handle!
About: I grew up with 3 large breed dogs and have done 2 years of dog walking / pet sitting! During my 2 years of pet sitting, I took care of puppies from 6 weeks old to senior dogs. Things that fell under the description of ‘took care of’ are; picking up poop, feeding / following dietary schedules, administering medications, walks, play time, bathroom breaks, training work, mental stimulation (snuffle mats, kongs, etc.) I do daily dog walks, and am helping my parents raise and train a German shepherd! I also have 2 cats of my own at home. I will travel to your home by car! I do not offer care for your pets in my home due to my cats not being very sociable haha!!
“Marek went above & beyond for my requests, he even wiped up the floor when it was raining. He brought & used HIS OWN towel for that. 10/10 would always use his services again!”

“Kelly Lea did a phenomenal job caring my two kitties. They were well fed, and kept so happy with playtime and treats. It’s great to be able to enjoy your time away when you know that your fur babies are taken care off by such a caring and wonderful person as Kelly Lea. She kept us updated on their well being with messages and photos. She was on time to every visit even when she needed to adjust one of the visit times. Rest assured we will definitely book Kelly Lea for future needs, what a great experience for all.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 215 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Rushville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

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 calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
