“Perfect mix of human and dog companionship for my 11 year old big boy. Brooke administered allergy medicine as requested. Already booked again for another week. Highly recommend.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Christine. I was very happy with Christine. She is very polite and easy to communicate with. She took great care of my 2 Chihuahuas for 10 days. She gladly gave me a couple updates (with pictures). I could tell that my little girls were being loved and treated well. Thanks Christine! I’ll be back!💕”

“Susan provided the perfect environment for my senior beagle. She and her husband are retired so they’re able to be with your pet 24 /7 . Bess received lots of ear and belly rubs and love sleeping by their fireplace.There are no small children running around and she has a nice fenced in backyard. my beagle thoroughly enjoyed herself and I don’t think she really wanted to come home.”
“Julie was wonderful! She was so good with our mini goldendoodle Molly. We got frequent updates and photos to show us that all was going well. It helped us to have a fun and relaxing trip to know that Molly was being taken care of so well by her. Her home and fenced yard are very nice, and she followed our directions well about Molly's care. She is very pleasant. We will contact her again for dogsitting. A+ job! Thanks, Julie!”
“Mary is such a loving lady! It’s so reassuring knowing that Reggie is in good hands and receiving quality care 24/7 while we are away.

AND she is such a friendly person and easy to love. 10/10 recommend!”

She kept us updated with photos and videos all the time, which we truly appreciated. You can really see the love and dedication she puts into her work. We highly recommend her!”
“Stacy was so wonderful to our 2 yard old Golden Doodle! Her house is a friendly place and the whole family loves dogs. Stacy sent us plenty of updates throughout the days she cared for Kaia in her home of both dogs playing, sleeping, and eating. Let Stacy be your dog’s home away from home!”
“Christopher (and his son) were the best sitters we’ve ever has. Our dog gets anxious easily and this is the first home we feel at ease knowing she is 100% happy, safe, and cared for. He sends updates and pictures and is very understanding and flexible with scheduling. HIGHLY recommend.”

About: Here’s a clean, natural blurb that sounds genuine (not robotic) and hits everything cat owners care about: ⸻ I’ve been around cats my entire life and truly love and respect them for who they are. I understand that every cat is different—some are cuddly and social, while others are more independent or need time and patience to feel comfortable. I’ve cared for all types, from short-haired to long-haired, and from affectionate to more reserved personalities. I’m very patient and attentive, and I always take the time to learn each cat’s routine and preferences so they feel safe and stress-free. I have experience with both indoor and outdoor cats, and I’m comfortable handling daily care like feeding, litter box cleaning, and giving them the space or attention they need. I’ve also helped my parents create a safe space for local stray cats, especially during the winter, which has given me even more appreciation for how to care for and look out for cats in all situations. Your cat’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always come first with me.
“I can’t say enough great things about Elizabeth! She watched my three dogs over the weekend—including my puppy—and took amazing care of them. She was kind, reliable, and clearly experienced. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My puppy can be a handful, but she was so patient and attentive, and all three of my dogs absolutely loved her. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth and will be booking her again.”
“I always trust Destinee with my babies. She visited my cats twice a day while I was on vacation and took excellent care of them. She even also took the time to have my cats make me a painting! I will book her time and time again when I need her. She always makes sure my babies are well fed, have clean water, clean dishes to eat and drink from , and a clean litter box. She also plays with them and takes cute pictures of my babies to enjoy while I’m away missing them. She is the BEST and I would recommend her to anyone. Absolutely amazing care”
“This was my first experience with Rover and Jenna made it so easy for me. I had a few questions ahead of time and she was very good about responding right away. During her visits with Simba, she sent me pictures of him which made me feel secure in knowing he was being cared for. Jenna took such good care of my baby and I will definitely be using her again the next time I need services!! Thanks so much, Jenna!”
About: ’m a dedicated dog lover and experienced pet caregiver. I’ve been a proud dog mom for over 10 years and have been around animals since childhood. Because my own dog has medical needs, I’m very comfortable providing attentive, specialized care when needed. I enjoy spending time with dogs of all sizes and personalities—whether that means playing fetch, tug-of-war, going on walks, or just relaxing with some snuggles. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while in my care. I work for Center Grove full time during the school year and can check on your fur babies before and after school. During the summer, I love to fill my time outside and caring for animals. At my house, my dog and I spend lots of time together enjoying the sunshine, watching movies on the couch, playing catch and going for walks. I want to do the same for yours. If your puppers loves to play or just wants some good belly rubs, I’m here for all. I am also happy to feed, treat or medicate your fur babies if need be.
About: I have been around cats for many years and have begun taking care of them in the past 3. Cats are dignified animals that set their boundaries firmly. Their homes are their safe area and that must be respected. Patience and understanding is what I bring when visiting so that I can perform any housekeeping with minimal disturbance to their mood. It is all at their pace and their openness.
About: I have two cats currently. The eldest is 9 and is an indoor/outdoor cat. I have experience with wound care and giving medicine from issues he has had from being outside. I also can trim nails and brush teeth. I have no issues with kitty litter duty and cleaning if needed.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Banta
“Destinee is absolutely amazing! She is very flexible (my schedule can be unpredictable and finding Destinee was such a relief… she is very accommodating, and was able to be flexible enough for me to adjust pick up times as I traveled during a couple of days of bad weather without having to worry). Destinee responds quickly to messages and treats our pup Molly so well! I had never used a pet sitter before and was a bit worried how Molly would be with a sitter, but Destinee has been so awesome it really put my mind at ease! Molly is so happy and tired when I pick her up… it’s obvious Destinee is paying great attention to Molly and giving her the physical and mental stimulation she needs as a puppy.”
“Nichole is the best! I travel a ton for work and I always know my Koda will have a good time and be very well loved. I never rested easy when traveling before Nichole and now I can focus on work when I am gone! Thanks for everything 🫶🏼”
“Kamela was fantastic with my puppy! Her and her family accepted my baby as their own and I never had to doubt her safety or well being. Will definitely be using in the future and 100% recommended ☺️”
About: I offer dog daycare, grooming, and overnight boarding, and I even have a certified dog trainer onsite to support puppies, seniors, anxious dogs, and pups who need extra guidance. With years of hands-on experience, I personalize every stay to your dog’s age, energy level, and personality. My facility is conveniently located off 135 and Stop 11 and features a one acre fenced in yard with four separate play zones for safe outdoor fun. I also have a large indoor play area for rainy or cold days, so your dog gets exercise and enrichment no matter the weather. And here’s what truly makes us different: I don’t believe in nickel-and-diming pet parents. • No extra fees for administering medications • No extra charge for treats throughout the day (with your permission) • No add-on fees for snuggles, playtime, or extra potty breaks • Everything your dog needs is included—love, attention, fun, and care Your dog will enjoy a safe, structured, and loving environment where they can relax, play, and feel right at home. My goal is simple: happy dogs, peace of mind for you, and an experience that goes above and beyond traditional boarding. Pet care is at the center of my daily routine. Monday–Friday from 7 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., I run a full doggy daycare program where your pup is supervised and engaged all day long. Boarding is available 7 days a week, and all boarding dogs enjoy access to daycare at no extra charge. Your dog’s care, comfort, and safety are built into every part of our daily schedule. Safety and trust come first. My facility is designed to give every dog a secure, enriching environment. We have multiple fenced yards that allow us to separate dogs by size, temperament, and play style to ensure everyone feels comfortable and confident. An experienced team member supervises the dogs at all times, and we closely monitor behavior, energy levels, and group dynamics throughout the day. Indoors, we have a clean, climate-controlled play area for rest, enrichment, and safe play during bad weather. Every pup is cared for with the same attention, structure, and love we give our own dogs, because their well-being is our top priority.
“I dropped off Oz, our 6 year old, curious, mischievous and playful Husky-Keeshond, at Laura’s house for daycare and as well a surprise overnight boarding and he loved it!! He was good and tired from playing all day with other dogs and walking in the park and to top it all off the photo updates on the dog’s activities throughout the day were awesome!! My wife and I just wish we had found out about her sooner!! We will definitely consider her our first option the next time we need daycare, boarding or or the next time Oz just needs a day of fun!”
About: I have cared for many animals growing up, my mom and I were both adopters of all kinds of strays. But I have been loving and caring for my very own sweet girl for 9 years! We adopted our baby from the humane society at 3 months old and worked through potty training, leash training, and command training. Please allow your pet to be my outlet so I stop asking my husband for another dog 😬 I am a homeschool momma so I am home or outside adventuring most of the day. I have a nice sized yard, however, it is not fenced in so if your fur baby likes to run off from time to time we may not be a good fit. I have 3 small kiddos (and myself) who would love nothing more than to snuggle on your pup! And our Vega girl enjoys running and playing with other doggos so your pup will get plenty of love and exercise! We do have 11 chickens who stay in their coop (we do let them free range from time to time, but they will be kept in their coop while you pup stays with us). However, due to having small children and chicks we will require a meet and greet before your precious pup comes to stay with us.
“Andrea was wonderful. She was super accommodating and sent lots of pictures to us throughout the day. I would be happy to book with her again if we come through the Indianapolis area in the future.”
“Roscoe and Kara had a blast with Sheila! I was looking for a day care option that gave them more one on one attention and I have to say, the pups are tired! Thank you!”
“Tracy is awesome. This was my first time leaving my fur baby and she took such good care of her and reassured me along the way too. I’ll definitely be using her again”
About: Hi, I’m Karla! I’ve been around animals my entire life and absolutely love caring for them. I have years of experience looking after dogs and cats for friends, family, and through pet-sitting platforms. I’ve raised and cared for pets of all ages from playful puppies to senior dogs and I’ve personally had a German Shepherd and a pit mix, along with cats, chickens, and even hamsters growing up. I’ve also volunteered at animal shelters and have fostered pets, so I’m very comfortable with animals of all temperaments and needs. Whether it’s taking your dog to the park for some playtime or a relaxing walk for fresh air, I’m happy to provide loving and attentive care. I also have a reliable car for transportation if needed, and I’m happy to set up a meet-and-greet at a local park to make sure we’re a great fit. I am currently a stay at home mom so I’m pretty much home all day! So I have plenty of time to be with your pet I can crate your dog if needed. I always foster pets so I have a system on how the arrangement will go since I do have a cat, I have 2 sore bedrooms and a backyard, so plenty of room!
“Jackson was very accommodating with drop off and pick up. Also, he is very knowledgeable on the needs of dogs when at daycare such as resting/calm time. As someone that is very particular about the care of my dog, I trust Jackson! Definitely recommend!”
About: I have two dogs of my own, Kirby 3 years old (mix of we aren't sure) and Jerry 8 years old (Yorkshire terrier) and I have many foster dogs in and out of my home as I work with a local rescue to save dogs from the shelter and unwanted homes. People say I'm an "animal person" because I like all animals...even snakes :) I have a very flexible schedule and am available most times of the day and each day of the week. I usually prefer dogs to have a harness rather than a collar just for safety of the pet. I will enjoy getting to know the pets in my community! Please let me know if you have any specific questions about the care I can provide.
About: I love pets. I had my Golden Retriever since he was 10 weeks. Now he is 7 and half. Very healthy! I take him to dog park everyday. I am full time home, so I have lots of time to play with your dog. I can walk them, play with them, take them to dog park. I have a fenced yard that your fur baby can play during in the day. My golden retriever is very friendly and happy to play with other dogs. I usually walk them twice a day besides the dog park, one in the morning and one in the evening. There would be two 1- 1 1/2 hour play time in the backyard too.
“Sharon was fantastic! Appears my dogs never even missed us! Ideal arrangement for us to have her watch them while we visited with a friend and her husband when passing through Indianapolis on our way to Wisconsin from our home outside Nashville, TN. Thank you Sharon! I highly recommend others use Sharon if wanting a loving home your pets can stay at when not able to accompany you. I have one dog around 60 lbs and other around 20 lbs. both rotten so loving care is what I want when needing an alternate care arrangement. Sharon met our needs! Now back on the highway.”
About: I have had the pleasure of taking care of dogs and cats of all ages since I was a young child. Every pet I’ve ever had the pleasure of loving has been in my life from the time they came home until they passed. My mom taught me at a young age that a pet was a lifelong relationship and responsibility and I took that very seriously! I believe that God put me on this planet to care for animals and be a mom. My children are grown and out of the house now so I have 4 dogs (Midas-9, Atlas-6, Echo-5 and Zuko-3.5) and 2 kitties (Boston-12 and Angel 1.5) and I would really like to help you care for your fur babies when you can’t do it. I promise to follow your instructions so your fur babies will get the best experience possible! I am in phlebotomy and patient care in my career but I plan to be a part of a rescue or sanctuary when I retire. I will continue to volunteer at the shelter as often as possible until then. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with and care for your pets! I am available for house sitting on weekends and some days I would be available to do daycare at my home. I have a fenced in yard and 4 small to medium sized dogs of my own that love to socialize! I have a fully fenced in backyard and 4 social dogs to keep your dog company, as well as a cat that enjoys being involved in the activities inside.

About: Hi there! My name is Stacy and any dog I’ve met I have loved like my own! Growing up, I had several rescue dogs. I'm the first call for anyone I know who needs a dog sitter or walker. From pet sitting, long or short walks, boarding and of course taking care of our own pets, I’ve got experience with it all! I’ve also administered medication to dogs of all ages and sizes. Our pups were rescued as well, with little training, so teaching them tricks was always a fun time! Any specific requests for them? Let me know! I allow them on my bed and couch, unless you prefer them not to. I always keep the water bowl full and pets happy and healthy. Allow me to meet yall and lets play fetch! A move in ready kennel is available if needed. I'm located conveniently near the airport, 465, and 70 for easy drop off and pick-up! I work from home full time. I'm a total home body so staying home with dogs is a dream for me. I have a fully fenced backyard. I also have a 4 years old dog and son ready to play at all times! Dogs are family members so they are allowed on furniture and beds. I have a fully fenced yard and love to take walks daily. I am very happy to drop by for walks , potty breaks, and pets. My son excels at giving pets and love!
“Lauren was fantastic with my two pups for doggy day care! She took some really sweet photos, was flexible with drop off and pick up and they were really happy and relaxed with her. 100% recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my entire life. I’ve always had animals in my household. Neighbors, family, and friends have always trusted me to watch their furry friends while they were away. I work part time at a school from august to may. I have plenty of time every day at home to watch and play with your animals. I have a large fenced in yard for my dogs at home. I live with parents so my dogs have multiple people to let them out and play when needed. In clients homes I let them out often and I am able to walk them and play with them frequently.
About: I’ve grown up caring for multiple dogs throughout my life, giving me hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, and everyday care. I treat every dog like family and prioritize their safety and happiness. I am currently home from college for the summer. I do not have other responsibilities, so caring for your pet is my top priority. I am free every day to be able to feed, walk, and play with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their everyday routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether I’m providing walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’ll ensure your pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, meals, and any other care instructions you provide.
About: I have a dog of my own, a 4 year old chihuahua-dachsund mix, who I take care of throughout the day while my family works and is at school, so I definitely have the experience of a hyper, loud puppy! I have helped dog sit and check in on pets for my neighbors and friends, including both dogs and cats! I am a college student home for the summer and currently working a part-time internship!

I am available and able to follow any schedule or structure your dog may need for walks! I can provide any length of walk, treats, and crating if needed.
“Audrey has been wonderful so far! She is super patient with us crazy dog parents as we have fairly high demands for anyone caring for our dogs. We have her walking our dog Squirtle weekly. She is very appropriate with her and reads body language really well. She even handled our roomate's dog well (he can be very nervous/temperamental around new people) when he had escaped from his room during one of her visits. She sends the best report cards detailing every little bit of her visit with our pup, even things that could easily be missed like sneezing or an odd behavior. Overall I would definitely recommend her for dog walking. We will continue to use her weekly for walks throughout the summer!”

“Valerie has been checking in on our pup for the last several weeks and taking him for walks and we couldn’t recommend her more! She is very easy to communicate with and is great at keeping us updated about how he is doing! We will definitely continue asking her to take our doggo on walks!”
About: I’ve been passionate about animals my entire life and bring a deep understanding of dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments to every pet I care for. I have experience with both puppies and adult dogs, and I’m comfortable adapting to a wide range of energy levels, personalities, and behavioral needs including behaviors such as resource guarding. Whether your dog thrives on structure, needs extra patience, or has a more outgoing and playful nature, I take the time to get to know them individually so I can engage with them in the way that suits them best. I understand that every dog and household has its own routines and expectations, and I’m committed to following any specific instructions or precautions to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and also very outgoing, which helps me build trust with dogs while keeping them happy and engaged. I’m also able to administer oral medications if needed and am attentive to any health or behavioral cues. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own—with care, respect, and genuine love. I’m new to the area and currently planning my wedding, which gives me a very flexible schedule to dedicate to pet care. Because I’m not working a traditional 9–5 right now, I’m available during weekdays, evenings, and for overnight stays—making it easy for me to give your pets the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I have experience caring for pets with a wide range of distinct temperaments and understand how important it is to recognize and respect each animal’s unique personality and needs. I’m very mindful of the routines, boundaries, and safety measures that help pets feel secure, and I make it a priority to follow them closely. I treat every home with the same respect and care as I would my own, and I approach each pet as if they were my own as well. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care while maintaining the natural flow of your home and your pet’s routine—ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away and that you feel comfortable as well.
About: I have a master's and bachelor's in animal science and plenty of experience with an array of different animal needs, demeanors, and personalities. Taking care of animals is truly what I love to do. Pet care is built into my routine through daily feeding, walks, playtime, and grooming, plus weekly cleaning and health checks. It provides structure to my day and keeps me active, mindful, and consistent. I care for pets by providing regular feeding, exercise, supervision, and enrichment. Although I don’t have a fenced yard, I use a designated area in my apartment where dogs can safely roam, play, and relax, along with scheduled walks and attentive care.

I currently have three dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily routines like feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and making sure every pup gets the attention they deserve. I also regularly care for family members’ dogs while they’re away on vacation, giving me experience keeping pets comfortable in their own homes and sticking to their normal routines.

“AMAZING! Spectacular! There isn’t a word to express how amazing Jason and Tania are! Kona was treated like a king :) Tania sent the best pictures and always let me know how Kona was feeling. She communicated every concern and showed how much she loves what she does. After a few walks she figured out his likes and dislikes and just let my pup do his thing whether that was rolling in the grass and just chilling or watching all the squirrels. Kona also LOVED Tania, you could tell by the pictures. I was always at ease knowing that Kona was being cared for so wonderfully. Not only are the best people ever, they are also extremely flexible and are amazing communicators. When ever I had a last minute walk needed or a change in schedule they were eager to help make that change. They will be Kona's number one choice for walks for life. ❤️”

“Susan provided the perfect environment for my senior beagle. She and her husband are retired so they’re able to be with your pet 24 /7 . Bess received lots of ear and belly rubs and love sleeping by their fireplace.There are no small children running around and she has a nice fenced in backyard. my beagle thoroughly enjoyed herself and I don’t think she really wanted to come home.”
“Julie was wonderful! She was so good with our mini goldendoodle Molly. We got frequent updates and photos to show us that all was going well. It helped us to have a fun and relaxing trip to know that Molly was being taken care of so well by her. Her home and fenced yard are very nice, and she followed our directions well about Molly's care. She is very pleasant. We will contact her again for dogsitting. A+ job! Thanks, Julie!”

AND she is such a friendly person and easy to love. 10/10 recommend!”

“Alisa was fantastic with Roxi, our Mini Australian Shepherd! Roxi can sometimes be a little unsure in new situations, but from the moment we walked in, she clearly felt comfortable. We received several texts and photos throughout the stay, which we really appreciated and gave us peace of mind while we were away. Communication was great and it was obvious Roxi was getting lots of attention and care. We would absolutely trust her to watch Roxi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable sitter who can handle high energy dogs!”
