“Lisa was wonderful! She came to do a meet and greet and Poppy was instantly drawn to her. She sent updates and kept me informed and I felt very comfortable having her there to watch Poppy while we were away. I would definitely recommend. Thank you Lisa!!”


“We used Tracy (and Rover) for the first time while we traveled out of the country. He house sat our 2 dogs and did great! We got pictures daily and he was very responsive to my questions! We would definitely use him again!”


“Brooklyn was able to help me out last minute and was great. She paid a lot of attention to my dogs and they really liked her. She communicated well and was fully invested in making sure my dogs were well-taken care of while I was gone.”


About: I’ve taken care of my aunt’s dog since I was little and then briefly lived with one until he passed. I was in charge of walking and feeding them and both dogs absolutely adored me. Now as I’ve grown up, my favorite animals are still dogs but I unfortunately don’t have any and I have the cutest little kitties. Hoping to get my serotonin boost from hanging out with your pups instead! I’m currently studying so I’m available for onboarding any day you need me to! I’m free to watch over them and make sure their needs are met since I am home all day typically. My yard isn’t fenced fully but it is mostly and your fur baby will have all the space to run around. I will be home all day to keep them company and make sure they’re happy.

“Emma is the best and a true angel! We have three standard poodles who are our 4 legged kids and we have never left them in someone’s care outside of family. Poodles are very family oriented and can be wary of strangers. After meeting Emma, we were amazed at how quickly the girls took to Emma as if they had known her for a lifetime. She came to our home and provided outstanding care. Emma provided us periodic updates during the day and even sent pictures showing us how well things were going. Emma is a true blessing to our family and I know we will reach out to her again! 💕🐾”


“Hannah was great! Both my dog and cat are typically very nervous of new people, but they warmed up to Hannah very fast! She sent great updates and tons of pictures which I really appreciated. I will definitely book with her next time I go away!”


“Samantha was such a great house sitter!! She stayed with my two beagles and geriatric cat for a full week. She successfully managed their shenanigans and was very communicative the whole time, sending me pictures and updates. She also took great care of the house. I would definitely recommend her and use her again!!”


About: Hi, I’m Adriana — a yoga and meditation teacher with a calm, grounded presence that dogs seem to love. While I don’t have a dog of my own, I’ve long been the go-to dog sitter and walker for friends, family, and roommates. Whether it's weekends away, work days, or longer travel, I’ve reliably cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I bring patience, mindfulness, and a deep respect for your dog’s energy and needs. I’m confident with walks, feeding routines, cuddle& downtime, and play sessions tailored to your pup. I’m also experienced giving oral and topical medications, though I prefer not to take on complex medical care or injections. My goal is to make sure your doggo feels comfortable, loved, and at ease while you’re away—so you can feel the same. I work part-time and have the flexibility to create my own schedule, which allows me to offer care during weekdays, weekends, and a variety of time windows. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to making sure your pet is well cared for while you're away. I provide care in your pet’s home and neighborhood, where they feel most safe and at ease. I aim to keep their routine familiar and comforting—whether that means visiting their favorite parks, taking their usual walking routes, or keeping feeding and playtime consistent. I treat your home with respect, your pet with genuine care, and I’m always reliable and communicative to ensure you feel confident in the care your pet is receiving.

“Natalie was excellent with my dog! I left for a week vacation and she house sat for him. She came over before I left to meet him and immediately had my shy dog excited to play fetch with her. She kept me updated throughout the week and I came home to a healthy/happy dog! Would definitely recommend!”


“Tricia is absolutely wonderful with our pets! We haven't ever seen them take to to strangers as well s they did her. Her laugh while playing with the dogs was truly infectious. We've already booked her again for our next vacation.”


About: Hi! I’m Alicia. I’m a second grade teacher and lifelong Fort Wayne resident. I’ve had pets my entire life, but currently have none of my own, so I’m looking forward to babying yours this summer! I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets behind, so I’m grateful for the opportunity to offer them a quiet, kid-free, pet-free, low-stress environment to settle into while you’re away. I’m extremely reliable, caring, and patient. Whether your pet needs medication, a consistent routine, or extra time to warm up to someone, I’m happy to adjust to whatever works best for them (and for you). Whether I’m with them for a drop-in or overnight stay, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Plus, I love to take pictures and document our adventures, so you can expect regular updates and plenty of photos while you’re away. Feel free to reach out to set up a time to chat or schedule a meet and greet! As a teacher, my summers are especially flexible for drop-ins, daycare, and overnight stays. When school starts, I’m limited to before and after school drop-ins, but always open to schedule overnight stays at your house or mine especially on weekends! At my house, your pets will be the only pets in the home, so they’ll get all of the attention they deserve! My house is pet-proofed and I’m very committed to ensuring your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for.


About: I am a fur mom with 2 fur babies of my own. I would love to help provide care for your beloved furry family member while you are away! I am available for drop in visits, in home sitting and dog walking. I have had furry family members my entire life and have had two beagle mix dogs of my own for 11 years. I walk them twice a day and often take them to the park, store or nearest watering hole. My experience with dogs has allowed me to learn dog behavior and how to both lead and be fast friends with your pup. I have experience with giving medications, high anxiety dogs, and can follow any instructions. Peace of mind while I care for your pup is of utmost importance to me. I’m currently working part time at my children's school just 2 mornings per week. I am rarely away from home for more than 3-4 hours at a time. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love to have friends visit. Your dogs will be made comfortable and part of the family in my home.

“This was our first time using Rover. Jenna did not disappoint. She came over weeks prior to meet our two dogs and learn their individual needs. While we were out of town, she sent daily updates and photos of dogs. Upon returning home, I was pleasantly surprised how clean Jenna had kept it. I teased her that I believed our dogs were sad upon our arrival because they certainly were looking for her instead. I could not have asked for a better pet sitter and animal lover to watch over our fur babies. We certainly will use Jenna again. A million thanks again!”


“Lindsey did a wonderful job taking care of our special needs pup. I was looking for someone to care for him in my home and for someone to stay for the day and she hit it off with him right away, sent texts and videos throughout the day and made me very comfortable living him. Would highly recommend.”


About: I am a mom of 2 college-aged kids. I work from home and have time and love to share. I have owned my own pets since graduating from college. My family has been blessed with multiple dogs, cats, horses, goats and chickens. We no longer live on a farm but live in a very animal-friendly subdivision with abundant sidewalks for dog walking. My daughter and I are animal lovers and have fostered 4 puppies and numerous adult dogs waiting for transportation to their furever homes. We also volunteer seasonally with the Humane Society of Cozumel and assist with spay/neuter recovery. We welcome the energy that 4-legged visitors bring to our home. We have an adopted, aging chihuahua mix who is not very active. I would love to talk to you and meet your babies before either of us makes a commitment. Of course, it has to be a good fit. Your confidence and trust in a pet-sitter is crucial. I believe I can be the one to love and care for your baby like you do. I live in the Sw suburbs and have a large fenced backyard that backs up to a wooded area. We have lots of great sidewalks for taking long walks with little traffic. I work from home online Monday through Friday. My schedule is flexible and I enjoy the company that dogs provide. I can provide plenty of outside time and playtime during the day. I have a large fenced in backyard. I also provide walks in my neighborhood or yours. The activity level is dependent on your pets needs. I always feed dogs separately.

“My first experience with Rover and I made the perfect choice with Sumer! My girl loved her right off the bat! She took great care of both my dog (Bella) and my home. She sent updates and pics and was very responsive. Sumer is clearly a “pet” person and I was thrilled with her service. I will definitely use her when I need a dog sitter in the future.”

She’s also incredibly trustworthy, dependable, and responsible, someone I would feel 100% confident leaving my pets with anytime.
