Erin, did a wonderful job sitting my very shy German Shepherd. She provided updates and pictures which assured me that my pup was ok. I plan on booking Erin again.

Emma was fantastic with our three cats as we took a long road trip to New Hampshire and back over the long weekend. She was very communicative the entire time and made sure that my cat that needs medication and an inhaler had both each day. She also kept us up to date about an accident that my cat had, cleaned it, and left the place spotless for us to come home. Emma is a great pet sitter!

I really appreciated Brenna caring for my two cats over the busy holiday. It was my first experience using a pet sitter as well as my first time leaving my cats. Brenna was willing to come for an introduction and was very responsive to all communication. She also quickly modified the contract when needed. She seems to have a way with animals and they take to her very well. On the pet cam footage, I could see my cat, Bogey, follow her around - so cute! Would recommend!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the beginning of my adult life. My family dog I trained as a puppy, learning the acute patience required to not only train a reactive dog but give a reactive dog the care and companionship she deserves. From this, I learned how to walk, feed, train, bathe, and even groom pets all in attempt to give my dog the best life she deserves. I’m currently a graduate student at IU, so I’m always free to walk your pups in the morning or evening! I have great weekend availability from Friday to Sunday, meaning you can take those short trips without the added stress of finding a pet friendly hotel! Dogs need exercise to live a full and happy life! My idea of walking and sitting is making sure your pup is active and healthy, whether that means going for long walks or playing fetch in the park. I have experience with reactive dogs, so depending on your dog, I can make adjustments to the walks I take that is safe for both the dog and other people as well.

Taylor and Cam were awesome! They are total dog lovers and it shows. You’ll instantly like them upon meeting them. We received detailed visit info and photos after every checkin. Our sweet older pup does not warm up to people quickly but she did with these two. So thankful they were available to check on our pups for us. We’d hire them again in a heartbeat.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for dogs and real hands-on experience. At 20, I’m responsible, patient, and caring, with daily experience caring for three dogs of my own and understanding different personalities and needs. As a 20-year-old student athlete, I balance two summer classes and a babysitting and restaurant job. I can certainly find time to fit pet care into my routine, as I consistently have early mornings (everyday of the week) and afternoons varying available to provide reliable, attentive care. I care for pets with patience, attention, and consistency, whether in my home or a client’s home. Having three dogs of my own, I’m experienced with daily routines like feeding, walking, playtime, and ensuring pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved.

About: Hi! Here’s a little about me to help you feel confident leaving your pets in my care! I grew up with two dogs: a Yorkie Poo named Molly and a very energetic dachshund named Archie. Now, I share my home with a small but mighty cat named Stella and our newest addition Miles, my sweet miniature dachshund! Stella runs the house (as cats do), and Miles keeps us all on our toes with his dachshund energy. My pets are family, and I’d love to share that same love with your furry friends. I'm a teacher, so I have a flexible schedule in the summers and can work with you to make sure your pets are well cared for, walked, played with, cuddled, and most importantly, loved. We have a small fenced in back yard for any families looking for a low stress doggy play date in my home. Whether your pet needs a daily visit, a walk, or doggy daycare in my home, I’m here to help! I also offer pet sitting and playtime check-ins. I can’t wait to meet your beloved pets and give them all the love and attention they deserve. Hope to hear from you soon! I am a second grade teacher so I am available most week nights and weekends! In the summer, I am available 7 days a week for all your pets needs. I am able to watch small dogs in my home. For those larger pups, I am able travel to your home to take care of your animals. It is my job to respect each home I am in and treat all animals like they are my own!

About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember. There were always multiple cats and dogs in my home growing up. My husband, three children (15,13,11) and myself love pets and have take care of family and friends' pets quite often, including bunnies and chickens! We had a large labradoodle with special needs in the past and currently have another large labradoodle. I am comfortable with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes and with giving meds as needed. My kids are always up for a snuggle also! I am a homeschool, stay at home mom of 3. Now that my children are older and more independent my schedule is rather flexible. We are active and walk often and can do school anywhere! Sometimes it would be just me but at times my children (15,13,11) would accompany me as well. We have a fenced in dog run which is very secure. If I am coming to your home I will follow any and all guidelines you have to make sure your pet is safe and happy and loved while you are away.

About: Hi, I’m Michaela! I provide reliable, consistent care for pets, with a focus on making them feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. Being a dog mom myself, I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make sure your pet feels happy and secure while you’re away. I specialize in dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and also offer limited boarding. Whether it’s a daily walk, a quick check-in, or overnight care, I take the time to understand your pet’s routine and make sure everything feels as normal and stress-free as possible. I’ve cared for dogs with a wide range of personalities, from high-energy and playful to more relaxed or shy, and I always adjust my approach to fit each pet. I keep my days structured yet flexible so I can reliably show up for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight care. I’m intentional about planning my day around the pets I’m caring for, making sure each visit gets my full attention. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening routines, I build my schedule to stay consistent and dependable. Because of this, I’m able to provide a calm, reliable experience for both pets and their owners, keeping routines consistent and making sure each pet gets the time, care, and attention they deserve. I try to keep things as normal and comfortable as possible for your pet while they’re at home. I’ll follow their usual routine closely, whether that’s feeding times, walks, playtime, or any little habits they’re used to. I make sure they get a lot of attention and care based on their personality. If they’re energetic, we’ll get some good playtime or walks in, and if they’re more relaxed or a little shy, I’ll keep things calm and go at their pace. I’m also very respectful of your home and will keep everything clean and organized. I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel relaxed knowing your pet is happy and in good hands!

Angie is a fantastic dog sitter who took wonderful care of our dogs. I was at ease knowing my senior corgi, who requires twice a day insulin injections, was in experienced good hands with Angie. This was my first vacation using Rover and definitely won’t be my last. Will definitely be booking Angie again!

Aspen was amazing and worth every penny! Not only did she provide an enjoyable experience for my puppy during two drop-in visits, but she also went above and beyond when she heard fireworks nearby. Although my dog was not displaying signs of fear, she picked up on his subtle signs of discomfort and texted me to ask if she could close the windows and turn on the TV for background noise. Only an experienced, professional, and caring person would have done this! I truly believe that if it was anyone else, they would not have noticed the signs or ignored them.Thanks to Aspen, my dog stayed calm, and I was able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing that he was in good hands. I also loved receiving updates through the detailed report cards and photos. Highly recommend!
