“Hannah is seriously the best! One of our dogs had an unexpected medical issue that came up (not requiring a vet) hours before we were supposed to leave town and Hannah was comfortable keeping a close eye on him and keeping us updated throughout the weekend. She’s our go-to sitter!”

“Jen did a wonderful job with our new puppy! She sent many pictures and updates daily. Very attentive to puppy and to the home. We would definitely recommend her to our friends!”


“Emily and her little chihuahua stayed at our home for a week taking care of our dachshund and cat. She did a wonderful job with the animals and also took really good care of the house. I could hardly tell that she was here when we got back. We will definitely use her again!”


“Wow what an incredible pup sitter Stephanie is! We came home to a very happy puppy! The house looked great and she was so kind in sending us pictures of Otis all throughout our time away. We will hire her again in a heartbeat! Thank you Stephanie!!”


About: I have taken care of all different kinds of dogs from sizes and breeds since I was a kid. Throughout my life I’ve had several dogs all types of different breeds and sizes, from a mastiff to a miniature poodle. So, I have lots experience in dealing with dogs in different ranges with breed,size, and age. I also have experience with cats, hedgehogs, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I am working full time currently, I am off on the weekends unless and normally completely free these days. I work during the day most days. I usually work evenings one day out of the week,tuesdays. I am very flexible outside of my time with work! I currently have a dog and 3 cats. With my dog we feed him in the morning and evening, throughout the day I usually play with my dog let him out to go potty, and a couple walks throughout the day to keep them moving. I also feed my cats morning and night and play with them throughout the day and clean their litter box in the evening.

“Lilliana took such great care of our pups and cat! We got so many pictures while we were gone. She kept them active the whole time!! We will definitely be in touch for future needs!!”


“Our Micki took to Kimberly right away. Our dog can always recognize a fellow dog lover. We received many photos and videos while we were away, which made us feel really good. When we got home, Micki was happy and tired from having so much fun. Thank you Kimberly for treating our dog like the queen she is.”


“Payton was wonderful with our Otis! We came home to a very happy pup who is usually depressed while we are gone. She sent lots of pictures and was very interactive with him, and we could tell that when we got home, he was very well fed and taken care of. We would recommend her anytime!”


About: I've had my own dogs since I was 4, so I have years of hands-on experience caring for pets, understanding their needs, and ensuring they're happy and healthy. I'm currently working part-time so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to pet sitting, ensuring pets receive the attention and care they need throughout the day/week. I'll follow any specific instructions given by the pet owners, maintain a clean and safe environment, and make sure pets are comfortable and happy by sticking to their routines.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and even chickens for more than 6 years! I’ve cared for pets for more than 15 families in the Valpo, Chesterton, and Crown Point areas. I love going for long walks and would be the perfect walking buddy for your dogs! I work remotely during the week, which allows me to be very present with your pets if you are gone on a trip. I work remotely full time, so I can be available any time during the day for overnight petsitting! I can be available in the mornings or late afternoons/evenings for dog walks. I don’t offer overnight stays for pets in my home, but I have a lot of experience petsitting and housesitting for families when they are gone on trips!

About: I love animals! I’ve had pets all my life. We have always had dogs, my sister has a cat, and when I was younger I also had 2 rodents similar to chinchillas! I just moved back home and have full availability. I can work any day at anytime. I will really be able to provide your pets with my full attention! We walk my dogs every single night. I also feed them and play with them. I will be able to provide your animals with the same level of care that I provide for my own pets.

About: I've raised pets (dogs and cats) for most of my adult life and would love to care for yours while you're away! With me, your precious furry family members will get the love and care they deserve, and I'll stay in frequent contact with (texts/calls/pics) you about their care. I've been away or on vacation and employed pet sitters in the past, and I know how reassuring that frequent communication is! I am retired and have no strict obligations that would keep me from sticking to any care schedule you need. Over the course of my work life, I've adapted to about every time and day schedule possible - weekends/late nights/early mornings are no problem! I have a reliable two-year old car, and am very experienced using any modern technology necessary if anything unexpected happened (Google Maps/Hailing an Uber/Anything smartphone related, etc) I understand how important it is to meet your expectations regarding the care of your animals and I will do whatever it takes, and I will treat your home with the utmost respect.

“Emily was fabulous with our dog, he is always nervous when first meeting new people, but Emily was very patient and understanding of what he needed and soon they were great friends. Emily stayed in the house and left everything so tidy and was very respectful of our home.”


“Meredith did a great job with our two dogs, a four year old and a rambunctious four month old, and our 14 year-old cat. She handled our little circus with no issues!”


About: Depending on the needs of your animals, I can come over how many times you need me to and take care of them! This even includes staying overnight if it is what your animal needs! As of right now I am currently unemployed, taking 1 online college course, allowing me to have flexibility to care for your precious animals all throughout the day! Animals are always most comfortable in their home environments and for this reason, pet care in a place where they are used to is best. I do require meet and greets before I take care of your animal, just so you know they are in safe and trusted hands!

About: I’ve always been around pets since I was little, whether it be dogs, cats, etc. I know how to care for them. I started doing Rover about 4 years ago, but had to stop due personal reasons and now I’m back on here. I have done multiple sittings before, so I can assure you I know what I’m doing and you will be pleased. I have worked with all types of dogs/cats. Pictures included in my profile: My own dog, some of the pets ( not all) that I have sat for, and pictures of myself. Just graduated from college a couple months ago. Still on the market for a job, so I am available every day of the week as of right now. Once I get a job, my schedule will change. I have a lot of experience with oral medication and shots with my own pets, so If you need that as well it won’t be a problem. I’ve had to crate my dogs before so I could do the same with yours if needed. I like to walk my dogs a lot and be very active with them, so if that’s what you need then i’m your guy.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was in middle school. My parents, neighbors, or friends have always reached out to me asking if I can take care of their dog or take them for a walk. My services include walks, feeding, stopping in and checking on them, and playing with them. I always ensure that the dog receives the right amount of time being walked or played with! My goal is to always ensure that the owners know that their dog is being well taken care of. I am currently a full time student at Ball State University. I am also an equipment manager for the football team as well. But during the week I tend to be very open around 2/3. On weekends especially Sunday’s I am very open as well. Whatever day of the week it is I will always try to be flexible! I currently live in a dorm on campus, so I will always have to come to the clients house. But if I am walking the dog then I will ensure that the dog is comfortable with me before taking it on a walk. I will want to create trust between the dog and I to make sure that it is safe. If I am dropping in for a visit then I will make sure the dog is also comfortable and safe.

“We love Helene! Not only is she sweet and caring towards pets, she is also super knowledgeable about all animals. We hired Helene to watch our 10 year old ailing dog and she took great care of her. Helene is now our go to for dog sitting.”


About: I have been on Rover for over a year now, and I’ve taken care of a few dogs in different places! I’m a huge animal lover, and I also volunteer at a local animal shelter. I love to play with animals and love to exercise, so I’m looking forward to walking your dog! I work full time, but if I can make time to drop by to walk your dog or feed your pets, I absolutely will do so! 😊 I love to exercise and explore, so I would be willing to walk wherever you like to take your dog to walk normally! I am a dog lover so I love to play with them.

My mom’s puppy is a high energy black lab that needs a lot of attention. My mom’s other dog is super old and struggles sometimes getting in and out of the house. My two adopted dogs have separation anxiety and have accidents. Kamryn definitely had her hands full! There were no accidents, she sent pictures throughout, and even kept the house super clean which is a lot with four doggos! She is such a wonderful person, and I use her regularly now when I have work trips!”
