“Elissa is the best! Outstanding job!! We found Elissa to be very friendly, thorough, and thoughtful, and she provided amazing care for our cats. Our daily proof of life pictures were fun to see, and our home looked as if we had never left it. In fact, Elissa is a wonderful addition to our pet care providers. We are so happy we chose her to watch over our precious fur babies and can’t wait to travel, again! Thank you, Elissa.”


About: Hi! I’m a college student and student-athlete with a lifelong love for animals. I’ve grown up with dogs and have experience dog sitting, walking, and bathing dogs of different sizes and personalities. I understand that every pet has their own routine and unique needs, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. I currently have a part-time job with very flexible hours, which allows me to adjust my schedule to meet the needs of the pets I’m caring for. I’m able to make time for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and any other care your pet may need. I enjoy staying active, so spending time with pets is something I genuinely look forward to each day! When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications (if needed), and any special care your pet requires. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection while also respecting your home and keeping it clean. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: Hello! You should consider me over others because I live on a farm and deal with all sorts of animals. As I previously stated my Uncle called me Elmira from a young age because I loved to take care of his dog…we even shared treats haha. If anything were to go wrong with your pets I would be able to handle the situation no problem. I am flexible especially because I am graduated, so I can do a midday check in! I am willing to be flexible and do what I need to keep your pets happy! I make sure when I am house/pet sitting to spend time with the animal. Even if it means going to your home and watching an episode of tv and just loving on the animal for an hour or so!
“Zoe was absolutely incredible. She met with us beforehand to make sure everyone was at ease with the arrangement. She spent plenty of time with our cats at each visit and took plenty of pictures to make sure they got some love and attention. On top of all that, she seemed like a genuine and caring person. We will be happy to use her again in the future and you should too!”

“Recommend Emily! I left my animals in good hands. She kept our precious Daisy for a few days and did a drop in for our cat. She gave frequent updates with videos and pictures.we will be using Emily for the future!”
“Stacy was wonderful! I could tell she has a big heart from the moment we met her. She took excellent care of our 2 kitty boys and even got our very cautious/skittish fella to come out for pets! Great communication and a lovely experience all around. Would highly recommend her to anyone.”

About: Graduate from Purdue with a wildlife biology degree and currently going back for Veterinary nursing! Experience in taking care of animals/walking dogs. I’m also able to take care of other types of pets (Reptiles, amphibians, birds, etc.) if needed. Lots of experience with walking and looking after different animals (Zookeeper at the Indy Zoo, Worked at the Purdue Vet Hospital, Volunteered at the Humane Society and Columbian Park zoo) I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes We have a dog and 3 cats of our own that we rescued, but we have owned quite a few dogs at my house in the past. I also have a bearded dragon. While I am home, I am able to give my time to take care of animals and provide attention to them. I want to make sure each pet is given the best care! Although I don’t do drop offs at my own home, I will listen to whatever the owner tells me is needed and make sure their pet is treated with the best care
“Alexis is amazing!!! She was wonderful with my 3 small dogs. I had originally had someone scheduled to stay with my dogs but that sitter canceled on me 2 days prior to my trip. Alexis agreed to drop in visits for us. With my little pups I needed someone every 3-4 hours and she was willing which is a big ask, that is a lot of time out of her day and family time especially around the Holidays. I am so grateful to have found her. My dogs were happy and well taken care of. I will definitely be scheduling with Alexis again.”

“Elizabeth did a great job of taking care of my cats. She came everyday and sat with them too… a first in pet sitting for me. Incredibly trustworthy, super sweet, and a pleasure to meet; will be booking Elizabeth on my next trip away, for sure!”

“Kathryn was responsive and had no problem with my specific requests! I have a skittish rescue and she made sure to give both pups time and attention and keep them safe and sound while we were out of town. As an anxious pet parent I appreciate it!”

About: Hi, My name is Sierra! I love animals because they're loyal and the best reason to get up in the mornings! I have never met a dog I didn't immediately fall in love with. I have watch my friends and family pets when they have gone out of town. I could never discriminate against dogs or cats, but cats do hold a special place in my heart because I have always one or several growing up. You are constantly learning when taking care of animals, but most importantly they teach us to love unconditionally. I couldn't imagine my life not being surrounded by furry friends, so I can't wait to meet you and your pet family! I'm currently in between jobs so I have more time to dedicate to checking in your fur babies and provide the best boops around town! I currently live in a house with a fenced in yard but will never leave them unattended while chasing squirrels, and getting much needed exercise.
About: Animals lover here. Each animal has their own personality and I adapt to them all exactly what they want and need. If they want cuddles, they get cuddles. If they want space, they get space. I run every morning so having a dog or even cat to run with is even better! Also am an energetic and experienced pet care provider. I have experience caring for cats, dogs, and ferrets before. I am really flexible with my schedule. I am home full-time. I can take your animals anywhere you want. I will love all of your pets and I can guarantee you they will love me. I also have platforms on windows so cats can watch the world go by. Your pets will get all the attention they want. I am currently working remotely so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your furbabies! I like to get up before the sun rises and go for a run, I would absolutely love to be accompanied :) I do not have a fenced backyard. Though the creek is fully around my back yard, my dogs know not to go across the creek. Maybe, my two friendly dogs will help with accompanying yours.

About: I’ve always taken care of pets since I was a kid when friends or family went out of town. I love my own dog like my best friend and I always love playing with him and taking care of him. I’ve trained my dogs myself and I always love it! Happy to help in any way you may need. I work on tuesdays and thursdays and as a musician I play piano in my free time. I’m free 24/7 except for tuesday’s and thursday’s which i’m free after 2pm! At home I have a fence, a nice vest and leash for my very muscular dog, and I have trained him to where he’s capable of being off leash and at my side while walking!
About: I have had cats and dogs since the day I was born and I have never had an empty house since. I currently own two cats and a dog myself and it gives me such joy being able to take care of others people's pets. I have watched over friends and families dogs and cats since I can remember and I have never had a bad experience! Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, as I prioritize creating a balance that allows me to provide attentive and loving care. My schedule is flexible, enabling me to accommodate feeding times, walks, play sessions, and any special needs a pet may have. I take pride in being organized and ensuring that each pet gets the time and attention they deserve, whether it’s daily check-ins or extended stays. Caring for animals isn’t just a task—it’s a fulfilling part of my life that I genuinely enjoy. I will not be allowed to bring animals into my home sadly. I am more than able to come to you or pick up your dog and hang out with them for the day!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 1,143 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Strawtown. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
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 cat, 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.

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.
