“Taryn did an amazing job with Dipper. She made sure he did his business outside and calmed him down. Dipper is not used to new people, but she got him to warm up to her very easily. If I need someone to watch him again I would definitely hire her.-”

“Bridget is wonderful! She has watched our two dogs several times now, and she is consistently professional, communicative, and most importantly great with the pups. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter”

“Paris was an awesome care taker of my fur babies! She is very thorough in her communication with us about her time with our babies. We enjoyed and loved all the pictures she took of them while in her care. We highly recommend Paris to dog sit. She is trustworthy and my babies love her!”

“Lauren was amazing! I felt so comfortable having her in my home. She gave me peace of mind that my cat was not alone and well taken care of while I was out of town working. Would recommend and use her again.”

“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter Heather while we were away on vacation. She took excellent care of our dog and gave us peace of mind knowing our pet was in such capable and caring hands. We especially appreciated the thoughtful photo updates she sent, which made us smile and helped us feel connected while we were away. It was clear she genuinely cared about our dog's happiness and well-being during each visit. We would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy pet sitter.”


About: I've had dogs my whole life including senior dogs and large dogs. I have experience in drop-in sitting for several days at a time. I've taken care of three small elderly dogs at once, including one that was completely blind and hard of hearing. I'm comfortable walking and bathing larger dogs, as I myself have had a dog over 100 pounds. I do not have professional experience, meaning I've never been paid to dog-sit, but I have been sitting for neighbors and friends for several years. He tenido perros todo mi vida, incluyendo perros grandes y de edad avanzada. Tengo experiencia cuidando perros a domicilio durante varios días seguidos. He cuidado a tres perros pequeños y mayores al mismo tiempo, entre ellos uno que era totalmente ciego y tenía problemas de audición. Me siento cómoda paseando y bañando perros grandes, ya que yo misma e tenido un perro de más de 100 libras. No cuento con experiencia profesional, es decir, nunca he cobrado por cuidar perros, pero llevo varios años cuidando los perros de vecinos y amigos. I am a full time university student working part time on my campus! All my classes are scheduled in the morning Monday-Thursday so I’m available after 3 then. Friday-Sunday I can be there for your pets anytime! I do not currently sit in my home, but I do have harnesses and leashes available if you do not already have one. We could discuss whether the leashes and harnesses I own are a good fit for your furry friend! :)
“David was awesome with our pets! We have a 22 year old kitty that needed some special attention during the visits, and he took great care of her! This is our first time using this service so we were a little nervous but David's communication skills and personality on the first time meeting set those nerves a side! We will be using him in the future for sure!”

“Once again I have had a great experience with Crystal taking care of my cat. Her timeliness, care, and communications is what will have me hoping to be able to use her services whenever I need them!”

About: I have always loved spending time with pets. Since I was born, my family has had three wonderful dogs who have lived special lives in my care. When I was younger, I used to dog sit for friends and neighbors when they were out of town and I always made sure to spend a little extra time with the pets so they aren't too sad when by themselves. I am currently a remote intern with a lot of free time throughout the week, so spending time with pets will be easy to work into my schedule. My home is full of warmth and good vibes for dogs of all sizes. With a big park behind my backyard, your pets will love running around while we play.
About: I have over 10 plus experience of taking care of my cat, family cat and family dog (yellow beagle). I love to play, spend quality time, and do whatever they love to do best (walks, cuddles, and play!). I currently work full-time but I would love to spend time with your furry friend anytime after 5pm-8pm. I love going on afternoon walks and enjoying the outdoors. Open line of communication is important to ensure safe entry/exit of home. I am open to sending pictures of your furry friend and confirming that they are safe in home when I exit.
About: I have many years of veterinary and pet sitting experience! I am always reliable and will love your pets like I love my own! Thank you Pet sitting is currently my main focus and career so I am flexible and able to accommodate you and your pets needs. I care for both cats and dogs! I offer walking, feeding, and play time, etc.. I currently won’t be offering over night stays but I plan to in the future if need.

About: Dog owner and animal lover with over 2 years of hands-on experience caring for and training my Labrador Retriever. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy to care for your pet. I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away! I run my own pressure washing business, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet sitting. Being self-employed allows me to manage my time well and make sure pets receive consistent care, attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day! I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while providing plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship in both my home and my client’s home!
About: I have grown up with a family of many people and even more dogs. I have dog sat for my family and friends for the last decade. I have given daily medicine and injections to miniature pinschers, German shepherds, and Boston terriers. I have walked large dogs and small. I love sharing a bed and chair with all breeds. I love running and jogging and entertaining dogs. I am available 24 hours on the weekends. During the week I work virtually. I love having the company of dogs and cats. Walks are so much more fun with all four-legged friends! I am available after 5 pm during the week and any time on the weekends. I would love to meet your pup or kitten ahead of my first walk or drop-in visit. I will make sure that your animals are comfortable with me before approaching them in your home. I will make sure to remove my shoes and to dry your pup's feet (if you would like) before returning inside after a walk.

Today was Joy’s very first day taking care of Winston, our sweet 11-week-old puppy, and we are absolutely thrilled with how everything went! It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. We couldn’t be happier and will definitely be booking Joy again to care for Winston! 🐾✨

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Schererville stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Schererville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Schererville with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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 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.
