“You need to book with Raechel! She watched my timid pup for 2 days and when I dropped him off the second day, he was super excited to see her again! She sent me pictures throughout the day and messaged me how he was doing. I'll be asking her to keep my pup again.”
“Amber is the first sitter I have used on Rover and I am so happy to have found her! My dog slept great after her day with Amber and I will definitely be using Amber again in the future!”
“Great doggy daycare. My two pups came home happy and tired from playing. Sitter’s dogs were friendly and played nicely with my dogs. Even got pics and videos!!! Will be using this sitter again!!!”
“Bethaney was absolutely amazing and accommodating for our last minute booking. She provided excellent care for our 4 month old boxer which also had a sudden onset of diarrhea the morning of her stay. Bethaney was still willing to watch her and give any medicine she needed so we could still have our family outing. She sent pictures and updates throughout the day. Her communication was fantastic. She showed Ripley lots of attention, played with toys and took her on walks. Highly recommend Bethaney and I plan to reach out to her for any future needs!”
“Debbie was amazing with Joey. I would definitely recommend her. I love all the pics she sent to show how his day is going. Joey seemed to really enjoy himself with her. I will definitely use her again.”
“Lynana is very friendly and warm. I was in her area visiting family for the holidays and was very lucky to find her in time for a last minute family outing. I also had the pleasure of meeting her equally friendly son when picking up my pup. Highly recommend.”
About: I’m a stay-at-home mom, now that my kids are getting older I’m looking to make some extra income and I absolutely love animals (of all kinds)!!! Caring for animals isn’t a “job” for me, it’s privilege and I would love to be able to give them the love and attention they need in those times when life gets busy for you. My schedule is pretty open for walks, playtime, baths and just about anything else. I currently have a giant lovable Bernese Mountain Dog and 3 cats ranging from 13 years to 1, but I’ve had many other types of pets/family members in my life too, horses, snakes, chickens etc. and am experienced with them all. Also I want to mention that I’m available for check-ins and boarding in your home too. My schedule is pretty open also including weekends and holidays. Also I am flexible to whatever time works best for you and fits in your schedule. I love taking dogs on hikes and getting them out to be in nature but fun walks around the block work too. . . .
About: I’m 18 and have owned and been learning about dogs my entire life. I also used to work at an animal shelter. I have experience training and caring for both very large dogs and very hyper puppies. I also have experience safely handling reactive dogs. I typically have an open schedule. There will be some days where I cannot do overnight stays for dog sitting but I’m able to do drop in visits and walk pretty much anytime. I have a cat so I’m order to provide daycare I need to know that your dog has been around cats before and is absolutely fine with them.
About: I live in Evansville, Indiana, and I have been caring for pets for two years. I love working with animals of all kinds, from dogs and cats two horses in baby chicks, ensuring they receive the best care while you’re away. I have just moved here, I’m originally from Massachusetts so I am looking for a job. Until I find a full-time job, I am free 24/7 I offer care for pets in home or in my client‘s home depending on what they prefer. I am a very active person. I love to go on walks and just be outside in nature. My apartment complex offers a fenced dog park and a walkable trail back to my apartment building.
About: For the past thirteen years I’ve worked professionally with animals. I started out for a year as a kennel technician. Subsequently, in the following two years I worked in a veterinary office doing general practice alongside a veterinarian. Then I advanced onward to working at the downtown Evansville all-pet emergency center for 3 years along with an additional part time role as an internal medicine veterinary technician at a neighboring company that travels here from Louisville to practice in the adjacent clinic space of the ER building. Finally, I moved upwards to lab medicine for a year and a half before transitioning to private boarding. I’ve now then for the past three years been working in private doggy daycare & overnight boarding services from my home. Doggy daycare/boarding is our full-time job. This means we are home 24/7 to take care of your fur baby( or babies). Our days start at 8:00am with individual one-on-one enrichment-focused play time in our giant, fenced-in backyard. Instead of group play that is widely expected at most daycares, we do separated play-times to ensure all pups safety while in our care. The only way they interact is if they are already a bonded pair and come for daycare or overnight boarding as a pair. Additionally, this allows us to take on dogs that would normally otherwise be kicked out of other daycares due to failing to meet group play standards. After play-time, every pup is rested one hour prior to feeding breakfast to prevent twisted stomach/bloat. Then, after eating they are rested for an additional thirty to forty-five minutes to prevent the same condition. Following this rest period, it is back to play-time or naps on our comfy futon and/or human-sized dog bed that we use just for our pups. Until dinner time around 5:00pm, we essentially allow unlimited time outside/potty breaks at your pup’s request. Come dinner time, we rest again for about an hour prior to feeding. Afterwards, everyone is in their kennels until the last potty break of the night at 10:00pm. Also, while they are in their kennels, we have multiple cameras live feeding to our phones that way they are always being supervised. We are committed to our mission of ensuring each pet’s stay is a true vacation for them and that we are their home away from home. Our fur babies have access to a large, blanketed futon couch, multiple dog beds including a human-sized dog bed to accommodate large breeds and bonded pairs, as well as multiple large rugs in front of giant 70s style windows for sunbathing. They have free rein of the home’s main floor which is specially fitted with baby gates and stocked with toys to accommodate them. During the daytime, dogs are not kenneled and have free access to the home and yard. At night, they all sleep in a kennel for safety. While sleeping, and at all while kenneled in general, all pets are captured on surveillance with an in-home camera security system that live feeds to our phones at all times. Safety is our number one priority besides fun. They have a giant, fenced-in yard to run around in with tons of squirrels and birds to chase. I am able to take care of pups of any age and size. Additionally, I am skilled with amphibians and reptiles and can accommodate requests for these types of pets too. If you have any other questions regarding safety during our meet and greet, I will be more than happy to oblige!

April D.
“April cared for my fur babies like they were her own.. Her love of animals makes her a perfect choice when it comes to taking care of your pets. You will see from the moment she interacts with animals that she has a way with them, that sets her apart from the rest. She is reliable, trustworthy, and someone that will go above and beyond to assure that your pets will feel comfortable, safe and loved while your away from them. Her knowledge and experience of feline and canine care is extensive and will be helpful with your decision to have her watch your pets.”
