“I have never left my Thor with anyone but my family, but I was happily pleased with Gianniana. I received pictures and my dog was playing and having so much fun. She did a wonderful job of taking care of him and I really appreciate meeting her on Rover.”
“Recently our puppy stayed with Jordan while we were away for a week. During that time daily updates were given with photos. It was apparent that she really cares for all pets. Great interaction, great communication. Highly recommend.”
“CoCo had a wonderful time at Cathy’s! She is very knowledgeable about dogs and truly passionate about their care. She exceeded my expectations, and I look forward to booking her again.”
“This was our first time using Rover for one of our dogs so I was a little nervous. Janis sent pictures of our dog every day while we were gone. I felt very comfortable leaving Remy in her care. Our pup seemed happy and well taken care of. I would definitely recommend her to someone and will be reaching out again if we ever need a sitter. Thanks, Janis!”
“Our 8-month old pup had a great stay. Being a puppy, she can definitely be a handful but she seemed to enjoy her time with Nancy, Mark and their dog. They sent plenty of photos and video updates, which we really appreciated since it was our first time having our dog away from us. We’ll definitely be having her stay with them again.”
“Mary and Marty are absolute gems, and the very definition of dog people! Our Luna loved her overnight with them and came home happy. Mary and Marty were responsive and highly communicative, sharing many updates and photos throughout Luna’s stay. We’ll definitely call Mary and Marty again to care for Luna.”
“Bernice did an absolutely amazing job caring for my fur baby this past weekend! I was pretty nervous since he’s newly adopted, but she quickly put my mind at ease. Her communication was excellent—she sent daily pictures and kept us updated on how his day was going, which meant so much to me. It was clear he felt completely comfortable and at home—honestly, he didn’t even want to leave! Her fenced-in backyard was a huge bonus and gave him plenty of space to play safely. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Bernice is the only person we’ll be booking with going forward!”
“Very great person & kept me updated with my dog throughout the whole stay . Due to me having a husky I be very scared with people watching him but I felt very sure with her & the fact she had experience with huskies . Thank you!”
“Amia,Joshua and family have been nothing but great to my baby Barry. He loves spending time over there, I definitely recommend them. They are the best fit for your fur baby 🙂”
“Meredith was just amazing. She handled my crazy dog along with her family and dogs like a champ. My pup seemed to greatly enjoy herself. Along with a happy pup, my dog came home with a few more manners. We will use her in the future for sure. 😊”
“Excellent. Gave us a ton of picture, more than any other sitter we’ve had on rover. And due to issues at airport I was an hour late picking her up, and she was totally accommodating. Highly recommended!”
“You guys were excellent thank you thank you thank you for taking wonderful care of my baby. I love all of the pictures and the videos will definitely use you guys in the future.”
“April is the best! I bring my dog to her instead of leaving him with family because he loves her house and dogs so much. Great communication and clearly a massive dog lover.”
“Kamiah and Casius were great sitters for Bailey. For me, it was a very last minute booking and Kamiah was incredibly accommodating to make it work. She was also very quick to contact us on the first day when Bailey wasn't eating (but everything was fine, as this is how Bailey always is at a new place), and Bailey looked very happy in the photos and videos we got each day. Also, Kamiah's pick-up and drop-off were prompt and efficient. I definitely plan to use them again!”
“Tonisa was wonderful! She answered all of my questions regarding my pups stay. She made me feel very comfortable and well informed with pics and messages from the beginning all the way to the end. Tonisa & her daughter were amazing!”
“This was my first time using Sharon and all went well. She sent photos and videos of Lily and took Lily on frequent walks. She was quick to respond to my texts. I really appreciate Sharon’s responsible and professional nature. And when I picked up Lily at the end of her stay, Sharon gifted her a bag of treats and toys and a thank you note! I will definitely use Sharon again.”
“Iman made me feel comfortable while away for 7 days. I received videos and pictures and my Jax looked really happy while he stayed with her. I intend to book her again.”

“She did a great job with my fur babies! I also noticed when I got back from my trip that she swept up the litter, because I know they really kick it around the house. Very communicative & sent pics of them daily.”
“Maddie made me feel that my precious cat was going to be well-taken care of while we were away, and she did not disappoint. Prompt and courteous, I have already recommended her to a neighbor. I hope she will be able to allow me to travel without worry many more times in the future.”
“Julie is incredible with my cats. She had to deal with administering medication this visit, and she handled it like a pro. She even came up with creative ideas to gets meds into a difficult cat! I highly recommend her as a sitter! 😀”
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I I’ve taken a vocational course for veterinary & I’ve have pets of my own! I’m also working towards becoming a groomer so this is something to get my foot in the door of giving myself even more experience than I already have! I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your animal I will dedicate my time to loving them as if they were my own! I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away! I have two cat of my own, both are short haired cat’s I have one boy and one girl! They’re very cuddly and playful whenever they want to be lol! I am currently working this as part time! But, I’m still available for drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable! I would also love to spend time with your cats, feed them, play with them, my cats especially love the laser toy/ any hanging string! I will respect your home, whatever rules or things you typically have or want followed will be respected! I’m more than happy to ask any questions if I don’t understand something so they’ll be no missed communication! I want to make you and your furry babies as happy and as satisfied as possible!
“She was extremely kind and patient with the dogs! Our dog had a few accidents but she was super nice and understanding and cleaned it up for us! We would recommend her!”
About: I have been living with cats in the home my entire life. From kittens, to adults, to seniors - I love them all! I’ve fostered shelter cats in my home. I’m comfortable administering meds/combing/cleaning litter boxes if needed.
About: I’ve taken care of cats since before I could walk! There’s always been a cat with me on my journey of life, be it a family cat, stray cat, or my very own fur baby. Cats are independent, loving, and kind and that only makes me love them more!
“Laylani is amazing! Our pup LOVED her. She was dependable and caring and I felt so much better about being away. The communication and pictures were so reassuring and my kids excitedly awaited her reports. Highly recommend (just not on the days I need her 😂)!”
About: I’ve also cared for many cats over the years for friends, neighbors, and family. I’m comfortable feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure cats feel relaxed and safe while their owners are away. I understand that every cat has a different personality—some want attention and playtime, while others just want a calm presence—and I’m happy to adjust to what makes them most comfortable. My goal is always to make sure pets are well cared for and stress-free until their owners return
About: I’ve had dogs in my home since before I can remember. Currently, I have 6 dogs, 3 of which we kept from a litter we had. I have ample amounts of puppy training experience and specialized animal care. I have nursed numerous newborn animals back to health (usually wildlife) and enjoy animals of all kinds:) I currently work 5 days a week in a medical office. My availability will be completely open on the weekends. I work 8am-5pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays; however, I have an hour lunch break these days from 12-1pm which usually has been plenty of time for me to do potty breaks for dogs when I have watched dog’s previously. On Wednesdays I work 8am-12pm so very open availability on Wednesdays. On Fridays I work 8am-3:30pm with the hour break between 12-1pm. I can be pretty accommodating with let out times so if this is something you are open to, please communicate with me!! My care is very client based. I understand that each individual client has different needs and preferences and I am open to any and all specific situations! In previous years I have done round the clock care for pets in my clients home and can provide references.
“Emily took excellent care of Lefty, our very senior cat. Maybe it was just my imagination, but Lefty seems disappointed we have returned and Emily didn’t come back😊 Well done Emily. Thank you!”

“We can't recommend Julia highly enough! She is caring, considerate and responsive. Our rescue dog has enjoyed doggy day care and weekly walks with her. We appreciate the peace of mind we have leaving our sweet friend in Julia's care.”
“Barb took great care of our sweet fur baby! She sent us text and picture updates throughout the day, and we knew our pup was in good hands! Our dog socialized and made new friends with Barb’s two dogs. I recommend Barb and will use her next time we are in the area!”
About: Your sweeties are in caring hands 💛 ✅ Experience with pets of all ages & personalities. ✅ Work from home: Attentive to strict care plan. ✅ Happy to assist with training/manners 🐾. As a pet owner of 35 years and a life-long animal lover, I’ve cared for my own puppies, kittens, and elderly pets over the years. Their quirky personalities have brought nothing but joy to our home! I’ve also cared for exotic littles such as snakes, bearded dragons, hamsters, gerbils, chameleons, ferrets, parakeets, Sun Conure Parrots and farm animals (chickens, pigs, horses, “farm sitting”)! Don’t hesitate to ask if you need additional help. We have 2 dogs of our own: One loves to socialize and play with our guests, while the other usually searches for the sunniest window in the house, to nap until the next potty/treat break. Working from home allows me to be attentive to strict potty/medication and walk/play schedules (if your pet is in need of a regimented care plan). I offer drop-in play dates, walks, back-yard potty/play dates and feeding/litter changes, based upon your instruction. I’m also able to host your pets in my home, if you need a sitter. Before booking boarding services with new clients, I request a meet & greet, so that I can get to know everyone and have a clear understanding of your pet’s personality and needs 😁!
“Marshmallow had a WONDERFUL first experience at Nancy & Mark’s Day Care! Sooo wonderful she’s scheduled for future Day Care dates as well as an upcoming Boarding weekend. I couldn’t be happier to have found a place, close to home, where my sweet, but scared and anxious, rescue is FINALLY comfortable other than with me!! Due to past trauma, Marshmallow suffers from SEVERE separation anxiety and can be fearful around large dogs, thus the fact that there is always a person present as well as the laid back and comfortable environment provided by Nancy & Mark was ABSOLUTELY perfect to calm ALL Marshmallow and Mommy’s concerns!! I was sent pictures, a video and updates throughout her stay. We truly feel blessed to have found such a GREAT fit!!!”
“Michelle was great! She was more than willing to accommodate last minute and very thorough throughout the day with how my dogs were doing. She has a perfect back room that is calm and quiet for pups!”
“Odin loved his time at Jesseeka’s. He was so tired from playing all day with Benny & all the outside time he got in a big old yard ! He can’t wait for his next daycare time !”
About: I enjoy having dogs, and started using this website when I went out of town. Because of this, I know the high standard of care I expect from my sitter, and what you should expect too. I will take the time and care you would for your own dog. I'll give them snuggles, playtime, and lots of outside time depending on the crazy weather we have here of course. Myself and my doggy friends love to take walks, play tug-of-war, fetch and other games your dog enjoys or might enjoy. If your dog comes to our house we have a fully enclosed backyard. It is a great big yard enough to play fetch with a few dogs at the same time. Some just like to sun bathe and watch everyone else run around. Your dogs will have so much fun, and will be well loved while they are here. When my doggie friends come back for a visit the owners tell me the dogs are excited when they turn down my street. I have a Yorkie named Jack, and 3 mini Bernedoodles named Elenor, Dahlia, and Franklin. I am not taking unneutered or unspayed dogs at this time. I have lots of available hours to spend with your pets. My schedule is consistent usually, but fairly open. In the past, I was walking dogs. Not sure if I am going to start doing that or not. I have a fenced in yard and 4 dogs to keep your dog company. We can play in the yard or hang out in the house. I have lots of toys and balls.
“Kiana was great. We were visiting from out of town and wanted to bring our fur baby. However, the weather was extremely cold and my daughter and I wanted to go to the outlet mall but had no clue what to do with our pup. I reached out to Kiara and god a near immediate response. We were able to enjoy our trip and our pup was happy too. She got a walk and lots of love and attention and had a blast playing with her dog. She was nice and worn out for our long car ride home. Definitely recommend!”
“April was such a fantastic sitter! She has years of experience and you can tell she cares for your pet! She was attentive to our Aussie’s special needs and we are thankful for her flexibility and her kindness.”

About: I have experience caring for all types of animals: dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians, rodents, etc. You name it, I can care for it! Whatever your needs may be, your pets will be in great hands! I plan to devote all of my time and effort into ensuring your animals get all of their needs met, whether you have a high energy pup who needs lots of stimulation or just a chill baby who wants to cuddle on the couch. I have a fenced-in backyard and a friendly dog to keep yours company! I can also easily provide crate training if necessary or requested. I have 3 cats who are very used to all other animals but can easily be put up if your animal doesn't like cats. Whether I watch your animals at my house or yours, I simply ask for a detailed list of everything you want/need done, specifically if they have any special needs.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet lover who treats every animal like my own. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on keeping your pet safe and happy. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pet feels loved while you’re away! I am a graduated high school student with lots of free time and am able to give your pets the most attention and care possible. I care for pets how I would want to be cared for with love and respect and I would give them lots of play time!
About: I took care of and was responsible for my dad’s golden retriever for 7 years while my dad battled kidney disease. I also grew up around our family Westie & German Shepard in my home that were super attached to me. So I am very attentive to a dogs need for love and care when away from the owner. Also first time guests and last minute requests must schedule a meet and greet I use to be flexible with this but situations have happened that caused me no longer be flexible. In addition I do not accept any pets without a safe reliable comfortable crate. As I do not allow free roaming in my home when I am not present. Your pet safety is my top priority. Being in a new environment for the first time pets will be pets. They aren’t perfect. Feel free to ask me any questions if need be. **(For example old pictures of pet only to arrive and they are 3 times the size) - 100% we have to have a meet n greet prior to sitting. Returning customers the meet and greet does not apply. For last minute requests please contact me directly I will try my best to accommodate but please be advised there may be a fee associated depending on the circumstance. If you have any questions please set up a time with me to hop on a call using the rover app. I will use my time to make sure your dog is loved and cared for the way you express to be done. I’m happy to send updates throughout the day/night & available for FaceTime video calls for you to check on your dog! I’m happy to show you my backyard area with pictures or video at your convenience. I can easily crate Your dog if you have a crate which is preferable especially if this is your first time booking with me and I never met your dog before.
“Joy was absolutely wonderful with my dog! She provided a safe, fun, and caring environment, and it was clear how much she truly loves animals. My pup came home happy and relaxed. This was my first time using Rover and Joy. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter! 🐾”
About: Your family is my family I have a genuine love for all animals. Some call them pets I call them family! I enjoy spending time with these adorable fur babies, and this app allows me to do it for most of my day! I am pretty unorthodox as I don't have a 9-5 I believe in following my passions and this just so happens to be top of my list. My schedule is super flexible to cater to your families needs I have a fenced yard with plenty of room for running around, tossing a frisbee, or for just laying out and catching a breeze © I have cages if that's what you prefer, music, television, or even a good book if that's what your family enjoys I’m a stay at home mom so I enjoy the company! Pets are thee most loving and kindest to be around. It is my absolute pleasure to take care of them I have a fenced backyard, plenty of toys, dog treats and love to give! My style of caring for your fur babies is making them feel at home by keeping them close by my side until you return lots of rubs and walks so they can check out the neighborhood and get some fresh air!
“I would recommend Kassia to anyone looking for a reliable, professional dog sitter. She was communicative, met with us a couple of days before the actual sit, and accommodated our early 6 a.m. drop-off that we needed (which happened to be on Daylight Savings as well). Moreover, our dog was excited when we dropped him off (always a good sign to us), and was tired when we got home.”

About: As someone who has grown up with pets of all shapes and sizes from dogs to even a pair of pet rats at one point, I have always loved animals and will take any opportunity to spend more time with them! I have a senior dog named Buddy and a cat named Maple and would love to pour the same love I give to them into your fur babies by playing with them, walking them, and attending to all of their needs. My childhood dog Buddy is also blind, elderly, and diabetic, so I have experience and am very understanding of pets that may need special accommodations and/or medication. Not only do I have experience with the many pets I’ve grown up with and taken care of, but I also have experience working in a pet store and boarding facility taking care of any animals you can imagine. I am currently home for the summer from college and have pretty flexible availability and would love to fill my time taking care of your pets! I promise to give your animals the same love and care I would give to my own pets. I’m excited to keep your pets happy and healthy by walking them, playing with them, snuggling with them, and giving them the undivided attention they deserve.
“Julie was awesome and my pup looked forward to seeing Julie when it was time for her walk. I knew she was in good hands when she was so very excited to meet Julie. Thank you so very much!!!”
About: Hi there! I worked as kennel staff at an animal hospital for over a year before I moved to Nevada, and then I worked at both and animal hospital and a grooming salon during the two years I lived there! (I have since returned to Northwest Indiana!) I took care of both cats and dogs(of all breeds and disabilities) and helped medicate and treat them! I have owned pets all my life, both cats and dogs, and have been their primary caretakers. I am heavily passionate about animals! I currently have two dogs and four cats. I am 23 and have a driver's license. I love animals more than anything, and would do whatever it takes to make your pets feel happy and safe in my company! I am currently unemployed, so I have plenty of time to take care of other people's pets! I live in a household with other people, so I'm more than able to housesit, as well! I love to keep animals company, and I will do whatever I'm asked to do to take care of someone's pet. If said pet is undergoing training of any sort, I'm willing to make sure that training is implemented throughout the visit, walk, or stay. I absolutely love giving furbabies my attention and love, but will go at the pets pace. I won't force my affections on an anxious animal.
About: Growing up with many different pets has made me very passionate about their care. I have worked in daycare, boarding, and am a certified dog grooming academy graduate. I opened and own Snout N’ About in Porter, IN. Ask me about adding a grooming during their stay! I am working as a dog groomer with a flexible schedule.

I am now off for the Summer and even though I go back in the fall I work around my online classes. I have 2 dogs of our own and a cat. Realizing they have individual needs and they love the safe space of their own home it is important to me to provide that care that you specifically may need for them. You know this and I have so many that suffer from Anxiety or Seniors that do better in their own homes. That is what I am here for...whether they require so many walks per day or snuggles or play time
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and genuinely enjoy caring for them. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for years to check in on, feed, walk, and spend time with their pets while they’re away.

I’m very flexible and happy to work with your schedule! At this time, I’m currently only accepting dog sitting stays of up to 3 nights. But I am completely available for walks and drop-in visits. I will always require a meet and greet before a first time service to make sure the pet is comfortable with me. I understand that I will be in the dogs territory and will act accordingly! I offer walks and drop-in services which can include feeding, playing, potty breaks, and anything else that may be necessary for the dogs care and comfort!
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was little. I own three guinea pigs and a fish. I am currently going to Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine. I have also been a veterinary assistant for about 4 years! Animals are my whole life and I will love your animals just like mine I am doing this full time so I am available to work with everyone’s schedule and I will continue to keep my schedule on her updated! The safety of my furry friends are my number one priority always! I have worked at several animal clinics where my job is to make sure the animals that I am caring for are happy, healthy, and safe!
About: I have had pets all my life I used to live on a farm, animals are my passion. I have always wanted to work with animals since I was a kid I am currently working a full-time job but I work no more than 10 hours a day and the rest of the time I'm home My yard is fenced in I will constantly keep an eye on them take them for walks make sure they have food water and that nothing will happen to your Fur baby
About: I had a 100 lb mastiff all 8 years of his life on earth and trained him extensively. He walked well on a leash but even when he developed leash aggression later on in life and he pulled I had the strength to contain him. I'm very used to extra large breeds and love them dearly! I also potty trained and crate trained him as a puppy. I am a self-employed wedding photographer that works from home and only works seasonally so I'm very flexible! I have two kittens at home so caring at the client's home is ideal unless the dog is cat-friendly. :) I have a fenced in yard. Whether I am in my home or the client's home, I love walking with dogs and miss it so much since my dog died last June. It brings me joy to give dogs the exercise they need and stay healthy myself in the process!
About: Depending on the needs of your animals, I can come over how many times you need me to and take care of them! This even includes staying overnight if it is what your animal needs! As of right now I am currently unemployed, taking 1 online college course, allowing me to have flexibility to care for your precious animals all throughout the day! Animals are always most comfortable in their home environments and for this reason, pet care in a place where they are used to is best. I do require meet and greets before I take care of your animal, just so you know they are in safe and trusted hands!
