“I had a last minute booking that Lyndsey graciously accepted. She was incredibly communicative and responded back quickly. She has a beautiful property that's a great place for my fur babies to stay. It was my first experience using Rover and would happily book with Lyndsey again!”
“Allison & Nicholas are the best!!! They took such good care of my Deso. He couldn't have been in better care. They sent me pictures and kept me updated. Would recommend if you need a good sitter. Will definitely be using in the future as long as I am Ft Wayne. Thanks again.”
“Alexander & Jaycee were absolutely incredible and took phenomenal care of my dog. They have a lovely home and perfect yard for exactly what my dog needs / is used to. And my dog actually became friends with their dogs (shout out to Stormy)! I would highly encourage anyone looking to let them take care of your pup! I’ll certainly be a repeat customer 😊.”
“Cory was very kind and made me feel so comfortable with leaving my pupper (Roko) with him. The communication was 100%, great amount of space for Roko to run off his energy and play, and just awesome understanding and care for him. I will be rebooking for the next time we have a family trip because my Roko felt so loved and comfortable and happy here.”
“Hannah was amazing . Valarie was very calm coming home and not anxious at all . She responded amazingly with text and pictures . She was flexible with our schedule and just a great first experience with a dog sitter overall.”
“April and her family were so inviting to Luna! She would send photos of Luna daily to ensure she was having a good time! Definitely eased my mind while I was on vacation!”
“Mindi's gentle spirit was a perfect fit for Ozzy. He was very happy when picked up and seemed to enjoy his walks and time with Mindi. She kept in touch by sending pictures of Ozzy and asked questions about how best to care for him. I will gladly reach out to Mindi again the next time we need someone to watch Ozzy.”
“Heather is very experienced with dogs and is careful to not board dogs that won’t get along well with other dogs. Messages are promptly answered and she sent us pictures to reassure us that Pepper was adjusting well to her stay. 🥰 We would be happy to book with Heather again!”
“An even better 2nd booking experience. Nan and her family and little Henry are really good to my baby boy. She is really a Nana to him. She even knew to take him for a walk to help him use up his excess energy, which I thought was awesome. He is SUPER energetic. I highly recommend and Kai and I are now official return clients!”
“If I could give 10 stars I would. We had a wedding to go to in Hawaii, and the family members who would normally watch our pets for us were going too. I was worried about leaving my 2 dogs and cat for 2 weeks, especially with the 6 hour time difference and being so far from home. I wasn't so much worried about the dogs, but my cat is almost 18 years old. After the meet and greet with Kristen all my fears were put to rest. You can tell she has experience with pet sitting and that she truly cares about your pets. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my pets were in safe hands. My cat is relatively healthy for his age, but is on a couple of medications, and Kristen was able to give him his meds while he stayed with her. She regularly sent me pictures of my pets, with up-dates on how they were doing, and I could see that they were having a great time. The dogs loved lounging in her sunroom and spending time in her fenced in back yard. And my cat had a big cat condo that he loved napping on. I could not be more pleased with this booking, and I would trust Kristen again in a heartbeat to watch my pets. Highly recommend!”
“One of the best! Ted was well taken care of during his stay. Great communication and pictures every day. I felt very comfortable leaving Ted with Agnatha and her family. No doubt in my mind I will use her again when needed. Extremely professional and unlike a lot of others she followed Ted's feeding restrictions. Thanks to Agnatha and her family!”
“We got lots of pictures showing just how relaxed and comfortable our dog was while we were gone. He came back home happy and healthy. Thanks for taking care of him for us!”
“We were so lucky to have connected with such a great family at the last minute when our original sitter fell through. They helped him get warmed up with a meet and greet and then our 3 month old pup was excited to go back the next day to stay. He found his home away from for a week and was sad leaving his new friends. Diana and her family took great care of our boy while we were on vacation, helped house train him, and taught him a few commands. It was nice having peace of mind that he was in good hands and getting updates and pictures while we were missing our fur baby. 10/10 HIGHLY recommend!”
“Wai was amazing! She took a lot of care to ask lots of questions to best accommodate our dog, sent us daily updates and photos, and far exceeded what was expected! I will be using her from now on”

“Bree was awesome and the cats appeared to like her also. She sent pictures and even took out the trash. We will be using her services again. It is so relaxing to be away and know that your pets are happy and well taken care of. I can't say enough about Bree.”
“I had a great experience with Cruz. He followed all of my instructions and was so sweet, patient, and caring with Astro and Lola. He spent time playing with them and made sure they were well taken care of. It made me feel so much better knowing they were in good hands. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him! 😊”

“Anabela was at my house over the holidays and dropped in on my 3 cats twice a day. This was my first experience with Anabela and she was AMAZING!! I have OCD so I am very detailed about everything. She followed my instructions to a tee! She communicated effectively and provided great pictures. My cats loved her and so do I. I highly recommend Anabela for your pets.”
“First time using the Rover service and our first time away from our pet for such a long duration. Franki was an excellent communicator, went above and beyond spending her time with our dog in his own home so he would be comfortable, and we're so thankful for her! Great experience and our new go-to option if we need to travel!”
“Amara is so sweet and caring towards the pets! She even spent extra time with our pets, fully without us asking! She even tidied up our space a bit and left the cats a goodbye present. She’s absolutely wonderful and a good choice for all your pet needs!”

“Taylor did a wonderful job taking care of my girls. I received a picture every day and that reassured me that the girls were doing okay. I will definitely be having Taylor watch my girls again!”
“Alexis was amazing & I will absolutely be using again! She did 1 hour drop-in visits for my 2 kitties for 8 days & went above & beyond my expectations. This was the first time I’ve ever had to leave them for an extended period of time, so it was also the first time I’ve had to hire someone to help take care of them, so I was pretty nervous. She came over ahead of time to get acquainted with them & myself, stayed in constant communication while I was gone, sent me lots of pictures & updates, & most impressive- got one of my babies to be snuggly & loving with her which is incredible considering their normal disposition around new people (hiding be pretty hissy/unfriendly). That alone let me know just how amazing she is with animals! When I came home their litter boxes were clean, their food & water were full, & they were both perfect condition. I’m so grateful for Alexis & how well she took care of my kitties while I was gone. I knew they were safe & well cared for which made being away from them 1,000 times easier! She will be my number 1 go-to anytime I need someone to take care of my cats in the future!”
“Alicia was wonderful to work with. Gita absolutely loved her and Brad, and staying in their home for 10 days without ever feeling lonely gave me tremendous peace of mind. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
About: While I love all animals, cats hold a truly special place in my heart💛. As a dedicated cat owner myself, I know they need a very specific kind of care that goes way beyond just filling a bowl. I speak "fluent cat" and excel at reading their body language—knowing exactly when they want an enriching play session or when they just need some quiet company and space. From pristine litter boxes to respecting their unique boundaries, I treat your feline royalty with the specialized attention they deserve.
“Logan was great to work with, flexible and patient while listening to my complicated instructions! She was very responsive every time I sent a message. She walked, played with, and cuddled my cat, and kept all 31 houseplants looking great over my extended vacation. Will definitely call her again. Thanks, Logan!”
About: Have been around cats my whole life. I’ve learned that cats sometimes want love and sometimes want distance. As long as their food and water bowls are full and their litter box is scooped, you’re good in their book! They’ll come get love if they want it.
“Sally and her family were amazing!! Her husband fell in love with my bulldog and her daughter loved on my kitty ❤️ Definitely recommend!! They treated my pets and house like it was their own.”
About: I have always had animals in my life all shapes, and sizes all species and breeds. I have had dogs, cats, birds, squirrels, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, fish, gerbils, racoons I have helped take care of horses, and cows and chickens. I have watched and cared for so many animals in my life and I love every min of it. I am currently a kennel supervisor, doggy daycare attendant, and a petcare specialist at a pet boarding facility in fort wayne. I truly love my job and all our clients that i deal with everyday.

“Alexis is absolutely awesome! She does such a great job watching Brutus and always makes sure he’s happy, safe, and well cared for. You can tell she genuinely cares about him, and that gives us total peace of mind. Brutus loves her, and we couldn’t ask for a better person to trust with him. Highly recommend Alexis to anyone looking for someone reliable and amazing with dogs!”
“It is so nice to be able to leave your pet and know that they are loved and cared for while you are away. Lyndsey is great at communicating and send updates frequently, which definitely gives me peace of mind ❤️”
About: For the past 9 years, I have been a dedicated dog owner, providing a loving home filled with care, affection, and attention. My experience includes participating in a variety of dog training classes, such as obedience, agility, and dock diving. Through these experiences, I’ve learned that every dog has a unique personality and responds differently to people, requiring patience, understanding, and tailored care. Currently available anytime after 5:30pm Monday through Friday… and every weekend. I will keep my schedule as up to date as possible so you never fall without care. Security is top of mind for your home and mine. Making sure they know wherever they are is a safe space for playing and fun.
“Rebecca is a wonderful sitter. This is my dog’s first time with a sitter and he’s very happy in her home. He’s a little “special needs”. We talked them through before his first visit, and she was willing to learn the best practices to set him up for success. We plan to use her services again soon!”
About: Hi I’m Hannah, a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to a German Shepherd! With over 10 years of experience caring for family and friends pets and 2 years working at an animal boarding facility. I can’t wait to meet your pet :) I work a full time night shift job so I am home during the day. My sister works first shift so she is home during the night so no pets will be left alone :) I’m flexible during the day so walking and pet sitting are available as well! When caring for pets in my home, I treat it like their second home, making sure they feel comfortable and safe. I stick closely to your pet’s routine, from feeding schedules to playtime, ensuring they get the attention and care they’re used to. I ensure your pet feels calm with unfamiliar surroundings. I’m there to give them all the love they need while you’re away!
“Donut was well taken care of by Millie! I had to be at work last minute and Millie was able to watch him for the entire day and into the evening. I loved how Millie would send photos and updates throughout the day. I would definitely book with Millie again!”
About: I have owned dogs for most of my life, usually rescues from the pound until I fell in love with the keeshond breed. I have handled everything from 2 month old puppies to senior dogs. Hello. My name is Diana. I am a stay-at-home mom with 2 dogs of my own (a friendly but old lady 10 yr old Bischon Frise and a goofy, very active 10 month old Keeshond. I am willing to work with many different personalities and will cater to your dog’s specific needs. Rest assured that I will treat your dogs like they are part of my own family. I live in a clean, smoke free home with plenty of room for your furr baby to stretch their paws and have a good time. If they enjoy the outdoors im just a 10 minute walk to The Pufferbelly Trail. I will provide regular updates and focus on creating a safe, fun environment for every dog, ensuring they get tailored attention and enrichment. I'm excited to meet you and your furry friend! I have everything needed to take care of both puppies and elderly dogs. A large home with lots of space both inside and outside and plenty of toys for them to enjoy!
About: Hello! I am an active pet rescue volunteer ready to care for your pet. Snuggles, playtime, and photos are guaranteed! I feel like I have the best job in the world because I get to meet and care for all kinds of species and breeds, like my very own personal menagerie! I truly look forward to meeting you and providing your furry family members with the extra special care and attention they deserve while you are away. 😊 Trust me, when I say your pet is special to me. My schedule is flexible, so I am available to drop in for a visit in the morning, before work, after work, and/or again in the evening. As a lifelong pet owner and foster mom, I am dedicated to giving every animal the special love and care they deserve, especially when their families are away. It's completely normal for your pet to feel restless during the first couple of days and evenings. This behavior can vary based on each pet's background, and I understand that it is to be expected. I will do my best to give your pet the time they need to adjust to me at their own pace, while providing plenty of love, comfort, and patience.
“We are so thankful Agnatha was able to watch our baby, Jett! She was so nice, friendly and very welcoming to Jett. We loved getting pictures & knowing our baby was in safe hands. If we are ever back in town we’ll be using Agnatha again! Highly recommend her!! ❤️”
“Heather was very welcoming and great with the girls. She took time to get to know them and spent most of her time with them. They loved her baby bunny smelling back yard. I would definitely take them back.”
About: I have experience caring for dogs at all stages of life, from puppies to senior and those with special needs. I previously had a small blind incontinent senior terrier who has since gone over the rainbow bridge, so I understand the extra patience and attention required to make them feel comfortable. I have also raised and house-trained two puppies into adulthood, who are still with my family today! One of them is a unique mix of Belgian Malinois, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, German Shepherd, Alaskan Malamute, and Rottweiler (Try saying that five times fast!). We had his DNA tested, so we can now confidently confirm his impressive mutt status. His high energy and intelligence required consistent training and socialization. After raising him, it's safe to say that I'm comfortable with puppy routines, basic obedience training, and how to handle a wide range of temperaments and needs. What sets me apart is that I take the time to understand each dog's routine, personality and comfort level so they receive the best care that fits their individual needs. Whether your dog is a playful puppy, an active adult, or a gentle senior, I will provide the best and reliable care while you are away. I am currently homebound so your fur baby will have my full undivided attention! I recently lost my senior baby so having a temporary walking companion would be great therapy! In my home, your dog will be family. I follow each dog's routine, including feedings times/medications, and any special care instructions provided by the owner. I keep leashes and harnesses ready by the door so dogs are always secured before any potty breaks or walk. If a dog wants to just sunbathe outside, I also have a stake and tie out, so no fence, no problem! To help prevent accidents, stairs and basement access are blocked off at all times, and rooms remain closed. All interactions between dogs will be supervised and there will never be any forced introductions. If a dog needs time to decompress or prefers their own space, I have multiple safe options available, including an end-table crate in the main living area so they can remain close by while I relax, a standard metal crate, and a dedicated quiet room for dogs that may become overwhelmed or simply need a break.
“Alicia is AMAZING! She was wonderful at communicating throughout the day and sent the BEST pictures! She was willing to deal with the craziness that comes with a young puppy, and Fig came home content and sleepy! We are so lucky to have found her!”
“Hank absolutely loved being with Amara and the other pups. We received tons of pictures updating us of his stay. We’ll certainly ask her to watch Hank again whenever we need it.”
“Emily is amazing!!! She gave me updates on my baby throughout the day. Tons of pictures. I would absolutely use her again in the future! Best first experience using this app.”
About: Growing up I’ve always had a love for animals. We had a range of different pets, you ask and I probably had one! I have worked a few years in a grooming salon. Friends and family have made me the go to person to pet sit for them when it’s needed. I enjoy it every single time and can’t pass up the opportunity. I have three dogs and one cat of my own. “Be the person your dog thinks you are.” Pet care is my focus on a full-time career. Whatever needs you may want we can work something out to accommodate those needs. Available during the week anytime and occasional weekends, as pet care is my full time job! Every pet and client is different. You tell me your needs and wants and they will be implemented. Lots of love and belly rubs will be given to your fur baby. We will become best friends!

“Ronica did an amazing job caring for our dog, Leia, while we were out of town for a week. From the first meet and greet we knew she would be the perfect fit. She was professional and her communication was excellent. A bonus for us: she was less than a mile away. We look forward to being repeat customers!”

“Deanna has skills. When our reactive rescue got out of the car, Deanna kept her hands relaxed and at her sides. She continued to talk with us and did not look at our girl. This is exactly how to meet an anxious dog! And our Portia responded by walking right up to Deanna and sniffing her. Portia walked with Rick this walkie. But Portia did walk between Deanna and him. She would normally be as far from anyone not us, as she could get! Most excellent! Our Mr. Baloo has never met a stranger and he was happy to make her acquaintance! We have already rebooked! Thanks Deanna!”
About: Hi! I’m Alicia. I’m a second grade teacher and lifelong Fort Wayne resident.

I am very flexible during the summer, school holiday breaks & weekends, but I also continue Rover services during the school week as well.

Plenty of playtime, cuddles, and attention are always on the agenda, and I'm quick to adapt to each pet's unique personality and needs, providing personalized care that keeps them happy and secure.
About: I have been involved in several volunteer groups for pets and rescue organizations. I’m sure I could help your peace of mind when you need. I’m currently working for Rover full time. I’m looking to make this a career path and I’m trying to earn more than happiness from Rover. My apartment has a private entrance and I have parks and trails to take them near me that are secure. I have multiple options for boarding.
About: Since I was a child I have been around dogs and cats. They are always part of the family not just a pet. All pets will be treated like they are my own and I will give them love and attention. I currently have 3 small dogs that I have raised since puppies. I also have experience with walking and sitting large dogs for family. Whether they are puppies/kittens or senior cats/dogs I will take care of them and treat them with love and care. My days are usually split up between myself and my wife taking care of our dogs. We keep them on a schedule with feedings and trying to take them out as much as possible. I am always willing to walk dogs and keep any routine or schedule needed for them. Taking care of dogs is a daily routine for me. I have 3 dachshund that I split time with my wife taking care of them. We love to take them outside and either play with them or go for walks. They are like children to us and will always see them that way. Keeping up feeding schedules and potty time is always a must to keep them full and happy.
“First meeting went well. Sally is kind and was aware of the surroundings at the park where we met. She was understanding about our fearful rescue Portia. So that was just a meet ‘n greet. Our second dog, Baloo, happily walked at her side. Will be booking more walkies with Miss Sally!”
“Alexis did a great job with Sophie. Sophie liked her when she first walked in the door, which is always a great sign because dogs have great instincts in people thanks, Alexis, see you Wednesday!”

“I had a last minute booking that Lyndsey graciously accepted. She was incredibly communicative and responded back quickly. She has a beautiful property that's a great place for my fur babies to stay. It was my first experience using Rover and would happily book with Lyndsey again!”
“Allison & Nicholas are the best!!! They took such good care of my Deso. He couldn't have been in better care. They sent me pictures and kept me updated. Would recommend if you need a good sitter. Will definitely be using in the future as long as I am Ft Wayne. Thanks again.”
“Alexander & Jaycee were absolutely incredible and took phenomenal care of my dog. They have a lovely home and perfect yard for exactly what my dog needs / is used to. And my dog actually became friends with their dogs (shout out to Stormy)! I would highly encourage anyone looking to let them take care of your pup! I’ll certainly be a repeat customer 😊.”
“Cory was very kind and made me feel so comfortable with leaving my pupper (Roko) with him. The communication was 100%, great amount of space for Roko to run off his energy and play, and just awesome understanding and care for him. I will be rebooking for the next time we have a family trip because my Roko felt so loved and comfortable and happy here.”
“Hannah was amazing . Valarie was very calm coming home and not anxious at all . She responded amazingly with text and pictures . She was flexible with our schedule and just a great first experience with a dog sitter overall.”
“April and her family were so inviting to Luna! She would send photos of Luna daily to ensure she was having a good time! Definitely eased my mind while I was on vacation!”
“Heather is very experienced with dogs and is careful to not board dogs that won’t get along well with other dogs. Messages are promptly answered and she sent us pictures to reassure us that Pepper was adjusting well to her stay. 🥰 We would be happy to book with Heather again!”
“One of the best! Ted was well taken care of during his stay. Great communication and pictures every day. I felt very comfortable leaving Ted with Agnatha and her family. No doubt in my mind I will use her again when needed. Extremely professional and unlike a lot of others she followed Ted's feeding restrictions. Thanks to Agnatha and her family!”
“We got lots of pictures showing just how relaxed and comfortable our dog was while we were gone. He came back home happy and healthy. Thanks for taking care of him for us!”
“Wai was amazing! She took a lot of care to ask lots of questions to best accommodate our dog, sent us daily updates and photos, and far exceeded what was expected! I will be using her from now on”
“I just want to say I really appreciate Emily so much. My boyfriend and I were here in Indiana for work and came across an issue with the hotel where we were staying, as they said they didn’t allow pets. Emily instantly came through for us. I didn’t know what to do; we couldn’t drive 8 hours back home, and no one wanted to watch him anyway. But overall, the experience was great. You can tell she has a passion for this and is a dog lover who doesn't discriminate against any dog. She was professional, and when it comes to communication about my dog, top tier. Please book her — trust me, she is worth it.”
“Millie was great! This was my first time being away from the puppy and she was so sweet and loving with her, and she communicated with me and sent me updates and pictures. So cute! And she has a backyard and a park nearby. I will definitely use Millie again!”
“So many pictures were provided to us while we were on vacation, and that alone put us at ease! I didn't want my doggo in a kennel at a facility, so I turned to Jennifer, and she didn't disappoint! Onyx looked so incredibly happy and enjoyed spending time with the other doggos. My fiance and I 100% recommend Jennifer and her services for anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“Omg Anne was simply amazing and super easy to work with. She was able to accommodate me while my plans changed and allowed me to be able to put my mind at ease knowing my fur baby was being well taken care of. I will be using her on an ongoing basis and I strongly recommend her to care for your pets any day of the week. I appreciate this app so much!!”
“This was the first time I used Rover, Alicia was great! I went on vacation and had to leave my senior Lab mix Sugiebear behind for the first time. She is 12 yrs old and has some health issues. Alicia's home is very neat and was accommodating to my Sugiebear 's needs. Alicia took great care of her and sent me pics and updates everyday. I also had car trouble coming home which caused me to be late picking Sugiebear up, Alicia was very understanding. I will definitely be using Alicia again and I will be recommending her to everyone I know. Many thanks”
