About: Hi there! I’m an avid animal lover with a gentle, patient approach to pet care. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and my rescue beagle, Mylo: a lovable goofball who keeps me humble and well‑trained. I always look after every pet with the same attentiveness, patience, and high quality care I give my own little crew. 🐾 Before pursuing social work, I actually planned to become a veterinary technician, and that early passion for animals has stayed with me. I’ve volunteered at the Wabash animal shelter, spent years riding horses, and gained hands‑on experience with all kinds of personalities and needs. Mylo, who struggles with anxiety, has taught me a lot about de‑escalating reactivity and building trust through positive reinforcement. He also takes daily medication, so I’m very comfortable administering meds and following specific care routines. Mylo likes to think of it as his “evening treat with extra steps.” Over the past several years, I’ve pet‑sat for friends, family, and their extended circles. This has allowed me to care for pets of all ages and ranging needs. No matter the temperament, I adapt to each animal’s personality, mood, and boundaries. Striving to create a calm, reassuring environment where your pet feels understood is central to my approach as a caregiver. Please reach out if you have any questions! Your pet's comfort is my priority ❤️ My schedule is currently very open as I wrap up my internship, and I’m available for daily check‑ins, walks, and overnight stays! Please feel free to reach out with any questions, I’m always happy to connect. ❤️🐕🦺🎾 I love caring for pets where they feel safest, their home 🏡🐾. While I’m there, I carefully follow your pet’s routine and keep their space clean and comfortable, so you return to a happy, relaxed fur baby and a home that feels just as you left it (or better).
About: My prices are NEGOTIABLE!🎉 I placed an AVERAGE rate of $50 per night but there are so many other factors to consider when it comes to your fur babies. I am not difficult to work with on that, so please don’t be shy asking for something that respects your budget. ☺️ I currently work as a PROFESSIONAL nurse 😉. I am a nature lover all-around. I’m happy to bring your animals to my house to pet sit or stay in with them while you’re away. I can also make sure your plants are happy and if you’re really specific with your instructions, I can help take care of aquatic, avian, reptile, or other exotic friends as well! Please feel free to reach out and see if I’m the right pet/plant/house sitter for you! Thanks for checking out my profile, I hope to talk soon! ☺️🐱🐶🐠🦜 I can accommodate staying in with your pet(s) or having them stay with me. I work nights on Sundays and Tuesdays from 7p-7a. On those nights, I am not available. I treat house and pet sitting like my own life. I clean after myself and the pets. I tend to plant life and get the mail; general daily duties. All other chores I consider upon request.
“Leah was so great with my two cats! I went out of town for two weeks, and she was very attentive and caring while I was gone. One of my cats has new health issues, but I never worried about them. She was always great about sending photos and updates every day, so I could see what they were up to as well. I'd definitely have her watch my cats again, and would definitely recommend her!”

About: I have worked in a dog kennel as well as volunteered for multiple years!!! I have dealt with a variety of animals in their own homes as well as mine, and have raised my own dog as well!! I currently work part time with very few hours, so I am always openly available for your animal!!! I make it a priority to keep your animal feeling safe and happy just as they would be with you! I can easily crate your dog if needed and live somewhere with a large yard for playing and keeping them entertained!! I also have plenty of space and things for them to do!!

About: Let me care for your loved ones while you are away, so you can rest at ease and enjoy your adventure with your family and friends. I love being on the move and having a variety of tasks. I love helping to build a strong community as well in this area. Pets are important family members, and I believe owners should know they are valued as such when they are away. Providing your house and/or your pets is the priority while you are away/or needing services. Let me provide you the peace of mind that your house and your pets will receive the highest quality of attention. I have lived in many countries, led international mission trips, and have cared for many owner's houses/pets.

“Jaime, Was very prompt responding to requests and questions. Was on time and very good with the dogs. Sent us a message when leaving at the end of the evening. Would highly recommend.”

“Rebekah was prompt, responsive, responsible, resourceful, so caring, considerate, proactive, took pictures to give us updates, & called us with questions. She helped figure out a solution when our puppies had escaped their pen while we were out of town. What a relief to have her there!”

About: Hello there! I currently have a cat! I have had 4 dogs and 4 cats in the past and have a knowledge for administering medications and taking care of injuries. My friends and family know they can rely on loving and caring for their pets. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and curate a plan that works for you both. I enjoy getting outdoors and getting my steps in. So I’ll be playing or walking your pet depending on preference. I work after 4 or 2pm so anytime before then I’m available to walk or care for your pet! I follow any rules you have at your home that you request and I will respect them. I treat your pet as if it were my own and don’t feed table scraps and stay to their treats and food provided for them. I make sure food/water bowls are cleaned/ filled when required. I like incorporating play time generously through the day to keep them occupied.

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs and cats for over 12 years, plus 3+ years professionally, including overnight stays, walks, and drop-in visits—always keeping pets happy, safe, and loved. As a college student at Indiana University, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I do not provide clients at my home. I keep there own home environment as safe as possible and provide updates and communication during walks and drop ins.
About: I have owned dogs all throughout my life ranging from small and large. I will give the proper care, attention and love your fluffy friends rightfully deserve. I work a seasonal summer job so I am completely open throughout the week to find a spot in my schedule to take great care of your pet. I have owned both indoor and outdoor dogs and am well experienced in treating for both of them. I can follow your set or rules easily.

About: I have worked in the pet industry for 10 years. I have done everything from cleaning kennels, to working as a vet assistant in a clinic. I also have experience with farm and exotic animals. I currently don't have furbabies of my own, but I find them very therapeutic to interact with. Life is boring without furbabies in my life. I will enter the home as instructed by owners, and proceed in a professional manner. I will use my education as a vet assistant and future vet tech to ensure the animal(s) experience minimal upheaval of their daily routines.
About: I have always had a dog growing up. We lost baby to cancer in February and just wanted to keep sharing the love we had for him with others. My schedule is flexible, I am retired and love to share a nice backyard with a five foot fence, snuggle and kisses all day long. Depends on the needs of the dog. The goal is to keep them cared for in a safe environment. Just like they are at home.
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, currently have an Australian shepherd named Birdie who i love with all my heart. I know how important it is for dogs to be able to get that energy out with a nice walk. Im available basically whenever just need a days notice. I typically prefer mornings most days. But im not opposed to other types of scheduling! Just let me know! Im just available for walks. You can definitely trust me with your dog. I know how important dogs are to a family. My dog is like my child.
About: I’ve worked with both cats and dogs in a humane shelter setting for multiple years, and I’m ready to meet and get to know your pet! I work full-time but mostly weekends and evenings. I have most weekdays off of work and am always available for a morning check-in for your pet. I am able to move pets between rooms and crate animals if needed in your home. I do not host pets for boarding at my own home.
About: My Fiancé and I have had big dogs and small dogs throughout both our lives! With that, I have 2+years of experience as a kennel technician where I had worked with a variety of different dog sizes and breeds. My background includes working with dogs that require specialized care, such as those with mobility challenges, sensory impairments, or chronic health conditions. I am adept at adapting environments and routines to ensure their comfort and safety. I currently have a very flexible schedule where I am available to work anytime you are needing, all week long and I am also able to travel a considerable distance as well! I have a small dog that is young and playful and loves to play on our backyard. And I also have an older medium sized dog who is kind of moody but usually keeps to herself! We have a house full of dog toys and treats because both of my dogs are very spoiled.
About: Animal Lover and Canine Extraordinaire Hi, my name is Chasity Huff, and I am currently living in Terre Haute, IN. I am from Northwest Indiana, and I have a huge passion for animals. I am working toward becoming a vet assistant. I have worked at a vet hospital and at a horse stable. I get along with all animals big or small. It would be my privilege to take care of your precious pets for you and spoil them with love and affection. I walk big or small dogs. So give me a call or text, and let me take care of your awesome pets. :) I work my night job through Monday through Friday and every other weekend at 3pm to 11:30. If this is not a good time please let me know. My apartment doesn't allow pets, but I grew up always having dogs and miss my fur babies. Cocoa, my german shepherd-black lab mix passed away at the age of 15 in 2018. We grew up together. My chihuahua-beagle mix lives with my dad. She is a shy pup and lovely to snuggle with. When visiting my dad, I enjoy walking her all over the neighborhood. But today I have to settle for taking care of my plants, so I would love to hang out with your furry friend.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Spencer 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 Spencer 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 .

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 Spencer 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.
