About: Hi! I’m Jenna, a lifelong Bloomingtonian and best friend to every dog I’ve ever met! I am a stay-at-home mom to a preschooler and I also help manage a national non-profit rescue for French Bulldogs. Simply put-dogs are my people! I have always deeply connected with dogs since I was a kid. There is no other creature like a dog, and the unconditional love they give is unlike anything else. Before I was a mom, my dogs were my babies. After I became a mom, my dogs were still my babies. I have deeply loved many bulldogs in my lifetime, and as such am very adept to handling brachycephalic breeds and their particular needs. (Though it should be noted I tend to regular-nosed breeds with the same loving care!) I am very comfortable caring for animals with moderate medical needs, those with disabilities, seniors, those requiring medication administration, etc. I have cared for hospice dogs, dietary restrictions, Mega-esophagus, Colitis, deafness and total blindness. You could say that special needs are my specialty. I have over 20 years of experience helping folks take care of their animal babies, from Pugs to Cane Corsos, several kitties and even some reptiles in between. I understand that all our animals are precious and I will take care of them all with the same attention and protectiveness I give my own. When you cannot be with them, you don’t want to worry about them. I get that. I cannot replace you but I can guarantee your baby will be loved, safe and a little spoiled until you get back. I am new to Rover, but very experienced. I am happy to do drop-ins, daycare or walks-whatever you need. As a dog mom who knows you have lots of choices and only want the best for your little buddies, I can promise that you can trust me with your babies. I currently work for a dog rescue remotely and am otherwise a stay-at-home-mom to a preschooler. I currently foster one rescue frenchie who lives with us and is sweet and tolerant to all my Rover guests. I care for pets in the way that is safest for them, regardless of where that is. In my home, dogs are under my constant watch. We live far from the road (about .15 miles) but pets will be kept leashed beside me outdoors since my yard is not fenced .
“We were on a cruise so we were unreachable. When we got back I got all the pics and updates that Lauren sent. I’m super glad we found someone that took good care of our boys.”
About: I have cared for dogs, cats, chickens, and a bunny for my family and friends throughout my life. I like to socialize my dogs by taking them on walks and playing with them! I am currently a nursing student. I have Monday mornings open, most Tuesdays off, and Thursday evenings. Then I have Fridays- Sundays open! When I have free time, I will gladly walk your dog and keep them company! I’ll care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, following their normal routine and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, food, and love. I’ll also make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away!
“Ashli was great with our dog! She arrived early for a meet & greet and was very patient with our loud demand-barker. He was very comfortable, and we're very happy to have found someone we can trust to take care of him while we're away.”
About: Growing up, my mom was always finding strays to add to our family. I've been responsible for the feeding, cleanup, and exercise of countless dogs since I was a kid and have learned how to work with any personality and temperament. I work full-time but spend my afternoons working remotely at home. I am available for drop-ins and walks after 2pm on weekdays and all day on weekends. :) Due to HOA rules I am unable to fence my yard so I spend plenty of time walking, swimming, and running with my dog, Oy, at the nearby lake. He roams my home freely but I do have experience crate training puppies.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats for friends, family, and neighbors, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I am patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual routine and personality. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I will follow your instructions carefully, keep your home respectful, and provide regular updates and photos while you are away. I am currently enrolled in classes at IU, so Mondays and Wednesdays are my busiest days, although I am still available during those evenings. I have flexible daytime and nighttime availability the rest of the week, including weekends, giving me plenty of time to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I live in a comfortable apartment with convenient access to dog parks and several local parks for walks, exercise, and playtime. I carefully follow each owner’s feeding, walking, medication, and safety instructions while keeping pets comfortable and supervised. I will also provide regular photos and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and happy.
About: Gotten into dog/cat/fish sitting within the last few years after getting tired of working in fast food. My Roommate/best friend is also a dog sitter and dog trainer. I'm currently only getting summer hours at my night job, so being able to help others by having fun or hanging out with their pets by going to the park is kinda the dream?? I have a chunky cat that would rather cuddle your furbaby and chill on the couch then run around but I have a big back yard and neighborhood with lots of trees to be on. Plus I just hit 30 so I need a reason to walk around in the daylight hours.
“Vivian took great care of our cat! She clearly made the effort to really give him all of the attention and playtime possible during the drop-in and that's easily the most interaction he has been given by a pet sitter. He can be a little shy but warmed up quick.”
About: I've been around dogs my whole life and have always had a genuine love for animals. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs, and I've fostered dogs in the past. I'm able to provide plenty of time and attention to pets in my care after work and on weekends. I understand that every pet has their own routine, so I'm happy to follow their normal schedule as closely as possible to help keep them comfortable. Your pets safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming environment. I am happy to follow your pets usual routine, house rules, feeding instructions, and any special care needs. I always make sure doors, gates, and outdoor areas are secure and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I have grown up in a pet filled home. In my household, we always had at least 2 dogs and one cat. My parents relied on my sisters and I to take care of all of our pets. I came to this role enthusiastically as I have always enjoyed feeding, walking, and giving love to pets. In high-school, I frequently pet-sitted for neighbors and family friends! Some of these opportunities consisted of me just stopping by and giving pets company or exercise, but I have various experiences taking care of pets overnight in their homes. All of these jobs I am familiar and extremely comfortable with handling! I am currently a full-time student at Indiana University in my third year, but I have a pretty flexible class schedule that allows me to be free during early mornings and late afternoon into evenings! I am also pretty free on the weekends mostly in the mornings! I do not leave town often and since my schedule rarely changes, I am dependable and can commit If at a client home, I make sure to note if they have a fence, a doggy door, and whether the street they’re on is particularly busy. I will make sure to keep a close watch on your pet and also respect the confines of your home!
“Paul was great watching our house and two cats for a week! He sent pictures and updates every night, asked questions about anything we'd forgotten to put in our notes, and bonded well with both cats. Even from the meet-and-greet, it was clear he was going to be a good fit, because our cat that is scared of strangers didn't feel the need to go hide from him; and it was clear from the updates that she got very comfortable with him while he was staying. When we got home, the cats were happy and healthy, and the house was spotless. Thank you, Paul!”
About: I have owned all sorts of pets including cats and dogs my whole life. I have senior and grumpy dog experience. I used to be a traveling pet groomer. I also used to work at a boarding kennel. I have picked up some training tips. I work a 9-5 Monday - Friday so I am available in the evenings and on the weekends to take care of your pets and their needs! My senior chi mix has recently crossed the rainbow bridge but she was the boss of the house. I no longer have any pets in my home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 71 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Sanders. 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
