About: Patient, Attentive, Problem Solver, Caring, Love Each Pet Like My Own, Punctual and Consistent, Communicative, Will Understand Each Individual Pet’s Needs, Comfortable Administering Medicine, Fun! I have a part time job at University, so I am pretty open during large parts of the day! My schedule fluctuates throughout the year depending on how many hours I am working at school and also managing classes. For this semester, Mondays I am not available in the afternoon from 12-6:30. Wednesdays I am available before noon. Tuesdays and Thursdays are very tight as those are my class days, but I might have some flexibility in the evenings! Friday - Sunday I am pretty available all day! There is a small portion of the afternoon from 12-3 I am not available on Fridays. Let me know if you have any questions! I would love to be given a run down of your pets regular daily lifestyle and what I should watch out for or what will help them get comfortable with me! I will follow directions attentively and keep up on whatever schedules you have your little friend on already to make your lives as easy as possible.

About: I’ve taken care of animals all around the family! I have two dogs and a cat at home who have been spoiled so much. I love animals of all kinds. I have given dogs and cats medications orally. I am a college student at Ivy Tech, my schedule is a little empty this semester, and my part time job starts later in my day. I am always in town and don’t have any trips planned. I keep an open schedule! I am able to take your pets on walks! As long as it’s not raining I would love to take your little ones on walks. I keep animals close when a vehicle is near. I’ll treat them as my own!

About: I have had and cared for pets my entire life. Highly experienced with dogs and cats from puppy/kittens to seniors. I am comfortable enough with all animals that with some instruction I can care for anything. Experience in administering medication, even with cats. Patient with all animal personalities. I am very detail oriented and thorough. Reliable and great with instructions. I love animals and since semi-retiring I thought it would be nice to spend time caring for them when owners are on vacation or just need a little extra help. I practice reward based motivation. Semi-retired with plenty of time to play with and care for your animals. Happy to care for in home or take for walks. I can do multiple drop-ins a day. I am very good with instructions and will abide by any house rules and needs required for your pet. Experience house and pet sitting prior to joining Rover.

About: I have taken care of animals for friends and family for years! I love taking care of dogs and cats, and giving them extra love. I’m temporarily unemployed (actively looking for a job) so I have all the availability in the world. Once I have a new position, I’ll readjust! I’m a very adaptable person who love rules and information, I’ll always work closely with you to ensure your fur babies’ have the consistency needed.

About: Ian and Mya have taken care of all sizes and types of dogs, including dogs with special needs and at various stages of potty training. We are former Purdue Cross Country and Track runners, and still maintain an active lifestyle, so we can go on as many walks or runs as you request. We train our labrador Sunny daily, and have received numerous feedback from friends on how well-trained she is, as well as how loved and cared for she is (she truly is our fur baby!). We like to treat other people’s pets like they are our own while they are with us, so if you are comfortable, we often like to give a complementary brush, bath, and nail trim:) Ian's schedule is flexible, working on a post-baccalaureate research project virtually, while Mya provides full time dog-care after finishing her graduate degree at Purdue this August. We are grateful for our current flexibility to provide personalized, attentive care to Sunny, and any dog that we care for! Every morning we take Sunny out to use the bathroom first thing, and then we then quickly head inside for her to go to her "place", do a little bit of training, and then give her an "eat" command to eat her breakfast. We let breakfast settle for at least an hour while we eat and drink our coffee, before any walking for Sunny to eliminate the risk of bloat (which is a serious and prevalent issue for large dogs). While we work from home throughout the day, Sunny plays with her toys and naps. As it begins to cool off, we head out on a nice long off leash walk in the evening. We let Sunny out as needed throughout the day, with short sniff/walk breaks. For dinner, we follow a similar routine as breakfast, but occasionally will use her dinner kibble for further training or rewards, such as nail trimmings, specific skill work, brushing, etc. We administer Sunny's daily medication at dinner, either on top of her food, or by safely placing the pill in the back of her mouth. After her last evening potty break, and before bed, Sunny loves to have at least 10-15 minutes of play time and focused attention for cuddling. Sunny is crate trained, but we also have a Furbo in our main living space, to ensure she is safe if we leave her to nap on the couch when we are gone. Your pup will follow a similar routine as Sunny, unless otherwise specified. We are happy to accomodate for you:)

“Katherine has been a life saver since going back to working 12 hour shifts. She is very reliable, communicative, and kind. My pup always seems really happy when I come home and I have peace of mind knowing Bowser is in good hands when I’m working.”


About: I grew up with a family that owned a pet store and cared for shelter animals and rehomes. I became a loving dog person who previously had a yellow lab. I have also cared for other pets such as parrots, lizards, chickens, and even getting tr mail and grocery shopping for people. I am Willing to work with your schedule and get your pup the care he/she needs. As for in home visits I have been doing that for a number of people for the past 4 years. Also Willing to discuss whatever situation on an anytime basis. I am 24 years old and originally from Indiana. Looking to make extra money over the summer by doing something I love and care about. My range is large. Bedford, bloomington, elletsville, and mitchell area.

About: I've taken care of many pets in my lifetime, including pet and house sitting for family and friends. I love most animals (snakes scare me). I live in the last house on a dead end county road and have plenty of room for animals to play and have fun. Plus, my kids and our pets will have fun visiting and playing with your pets. I currently work weekends only as a RN. I am home Mondays-Thursdays. I do have 3 kids of my own, so I do have to get them to and from school. We have a large yard for pets to play. Dogs will always be on leashes as our yard is in currently fenced. We live in the last house on a dead end country road, so no cars come past our home. I can easily crate your pet if needed. We have a friendly female dog and 3 friendly cats.

“I can confidently say we loved Catherine! She went above and beyond when we had her watch over our dog when we were out of state. She always kept us updated each visit with pictures and a little summary what happened during their visit together. Catherine really does care for the well being of dogs and even hung out a little extra just because she could tell our dog needed it while we were away. Our kitty enjoyed the attention too. We absolutely loved her and will rebook again when we need to!”


About: I have been house sitting and taking care of pets throughout high school and college. I have two cats of my own. I treat any pet as if it is my own when watching them! I am free a lot of the time and can work around many different schedules. I am easy to work with and am very flexible! I play with my own cats every chance I get and make sure they have everything they could need or want. I do this with the pets I watch as well because that’s how I would want my cats taken care of!

About: I’ve cared for animals of all kinds for 20+ Years. Mostly horses, dogs and cats. My friends, family and colleagues have relied on me to help with daily essential needs (grooming/bathing, exercise, quality cuddles etc). I really enjoy learning and bonding with each animal and getting to know their different personalities. I am currently working part time to help my mother while she is on dialysis. I thought this would be a great opportunity for me and my community, as I have the extra time on certain availability days selected. I try to keep to a schedule in my own home. Our family dog gets let out at 6am, fed at 8am, outside time 8:15am, morning nap, walks from 10am-11:30am, playtime/snuggles 12pm-2pm, outside time, 3pm-4pm walk, 5pm-6pm dinner, outside time, 8-9 bedtime.

About: I have babysat for many family members and friends. I worked at a dog daycare business for 3 years as well! I have tons of experience with just about any breed, and I am always happy to learn something new about taking care of your pet! I’m a current student at IU Bloomington, so I’d love to help out between classes and studying! My schedule is usually pretty open throughout the week. I love going for walks or just hanging out at home with pets, let me know whatever your furry friend needs to have the best time possible!

About: I've had my 2 cats and dogs for 12 years and adore them! I make new feline and canine friends easily so I'm happy to sit/walk yours as well! My work schedule is light right now so I have a lot of availability for sittings and walks and have done this a lot for friends. I am open to your specific directions for caring for your animals and am flexible. Write down any specific details and I will follow them. I am trustworthy and have house sat and dog walked for many friends and neighbors! People count on me!


About: Dogs are a marvelous source of companionship. I show them compassion and are attentive to their needs. I enjoy running with dogs, playing fetch, holding, and petting dogs. I have experience in playing with dogs, grooming, bathing, feeding, and walking dogs. While growing as a young child, my dad brought home various dogs at sundry times. I was the dog's main caregiver. My mother eventually would release the dogs because she did not like them, but I was able to build a solid experience and bond with them before she did. In Jamaica where my parents were born, their are many outdoor dogs roaming the streets. I easily befriend them and usually play with them and feed them. My schedule is flexible with me usually being available in the morning. If the price for my service is not suitable for you, I am open for negotiation. Call or text me. God bless you and your family.


About: I love all animals. I especially love dogs and cats. I have worked with animal rescue groups and I volunteer my time to help shelters and their efforts. I have had dogs and cats all of my life. Mostly large breeds. I am comfortable with any large breed. I am also very patient with dogs that are still learning. When I am walking a dog I am fully focused on them and do not try to rush them. I help reassure them if they feel anxious or unsure of their surroundings. It should be an enjoyable and healthy experience for the dog and for me as well! I would like to have several regulars that know me and are excited to get a routine going. Having a relationship with the dog and owners is important to me so everyone can feel comfortable.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was little. I have been taught from a young age the best and most effective way to take care of your pet. I know each furry friend has an owner that loves them very much and so I always treat each pet as if they were my own. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play and interact with your pet. Pets need love and attention and that is very important to me. I have a fenced in yard and I make sure each dog is properly cared for and has the play and toys they need to be super happy.

“Sarah is excellent with dogs and people ☺?. She is very friendly, caring, kind, and most importantly has a rarely, wonderful, big heart.. I have known her for some time and I'm a choreographer, I teach dance all over, therefore needing to travel often. Sarah would usually watch my doggy when I was on the road. She always took the absolute best care of Mattie, my little angel of a boxer (angel literally as she recently passed away?), and treated her as her own. Sarah was so fantastic in everyway with both me and my little angel Mattie?, I'd highly recommend her to any good doggy parent out there looking for someone who will be absolutely wonderful to your dog/child and nice to work with as well..”
