“Mallory was awesome with my mini goldendoodle Bella. She took her to the dog park daily, gave her lots of cuddling time and made Bella feel right at home. You can tell that Mallory truly loves dogs. I highly recommend her!”
“Crystal has kept our pup several times while we were traveling and she is amazing! I always enjoy seeing a few photos and knowing she's in excellent care and having fun while we are away.”
“Kyungyeon was AMAZING with our depressed doggie! He always mopes and eats very little when we are away, but Kyungyeon would not give up until he felt comfortable and happy in her home! We got so many pictures and updates and I am so grateful for the amazing care she took of our Obi!”
“Bethany was the most welcoming and confident host for our 12 yo poodle mix. Our dog has struggled with anxiety for years, so I was excited to see how accepting he was of being dropped off in a new-to-him environment. Bethany’s energy was perfect for his temperament, and I feel lucky to have found her for future visits. She tended to his needs, and even though he had a couple accidents- due to nerves or aging - she took this in gracious stride. We received photos and updates that made our trip away from him feel seamless. We highly recommend her, and will book with Bethany anytime she is available.”
“I'm always a little nervous to leave my dog with someone new, but Kailly was very responsive, flexible with drop off and pick up times, and sent photos of Cleo. She was so friendly and excited to meet Cleo that I felt so comfortable that Cleo would be well taken care of and she was.”
“My dogs have never had such an easy drop off! They instantly bonded with Julie’s friendly dogs and went off to explore. A great experience for our dogs. We’ll look to book again with Julie!”
“Tilly's previous owner has taken her to Karen for years. So when Tilly came to live with me, I also took her to Karen. Tilly loves staying with Karen. And as Tilly's mom, I love that Karen sends me periodic updates and photos of her time there when I'm away. Everyone I've talked with loves taking their dog to Karen. I agree and will certainly take Tilly there again.”
“Boarded our lab puppy with Jody for several days and our experience was great! We had to extend our stay also after some unexpected changes in our schedule, and he was super accommodating. We got pictures and updates and Murphy got walks etc. It was incredibly hot also during Murphy’s stay, and Jody sent messages updating us that the dogs were in the AC etc.! Would definitely book here again!”
“Josh was super great at communicating with us and really flexible with pick up/drop off when we needed to make changes. Our dog Walter was very well taken care of and we would absolutely recommend Josh as a pet sitter!”
“We received peace of mind by daily checkins with pictures or videos of our little pup. Our Daisy girl was in very good capable loving hands with Gabriel. We highly recommend him and will plan on booking him again if we need it.”
“Brendan is always great with our dog! We had to unexpectedly extend our time away and he was very accomodating about the changes and incredibly helpful. Our dog always comes back from Brendan’s very happy and doesn’t want to leave!”
“Amy has a beautiful home where she watched our dog for a week while we were out of town. Our dog can sometimes be timid of new places/faces, but not with Amy. She took great care of him and we saw this in the photo updates she shared. She works from home so your dog almost always has someone to keep them company. We can’t thank Amy enough. Absolutely, we plan to use her again. (This was our second time using her)”
“Clara did a really good job at taking care of my two boys. I could noticeably tell they were both calm and relaxed when I picked them up. I will definitely rebook. Thank you Clara”
“Rajesh was an incredible dog sitter! From the moment I left my pup, I knew he was in great hands. He treated him like family and went above and beyond by sending daily updates with photos and videos. It meant so much to see how happy and well cared for my dog was. I would 100% book with him again!”
“Janay and her family took such great care of our fur baby! I don't think she wanted to come home. I am so grateful we were able to relax on vacation knowing our baby was in good hands. Janey sent plenty of pics and remained in communication our whole stay”
“Chris was amazing. Our little man had an amazing over nite stay. He was well taken care of and enjoyed playing with the others dogs there. Chris went a live to accommodate us after our regular sitter was unable to watch him. We will be using Chris many more times again.”
“We were so pleased to have Jane take care of our dog over the holidays. She provided daily photos, videos and updates. Milo was clearly happy in her care and we would definitely have him stay with her again!”
“How I know Ellie is an amazing sister for Marshall? Just disassembling his crate tells him he is going and he gets very excited. He and their dog are perfect attitude for each other.”

“Leslie was great watching our cats Cork and Oslo! She took a lot of time to make sure they got plenty of attention while we were away! We definitely will book her again on our next trip!”
“Our dogs are older and extremely skeptical of strangers. Claire's approach was spot on and decreased their anxiety quickly. She is no longer a stranger, but a new BFF! Additionally, her communication and timeliness has been greatly appreciated. We are looking forward to a long relationship as our go to sitter for drop-ins and extended stays.”
“This is the third time we have used Mary and just like the other two times, she was great. Everyday that we were gone she found all 4 cats in their hiding places and sent pictures. She is reliable and does a nice job.”
“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!”
About: Hi! I've been an animal lover my whole life and genuinely enjoy caring for pets. While I have years of experience with dogs, I also love spending time with cats and understand that every cat has a unique personality and routine. Whether your cat is playful and social or prefers a quiet environment, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I'll provide fresh food and water, clean the litter box, give them plenty of attention (or space if they prefer!), and make sure they stay happy and comfortable in their own home. I'm reliable, patient, and will always follow your cat's routine and any special instructions to ensure they're receiving the best possible care. I know how important it is to have peace of mind while you're away, and I'll treat your cat as if they were my own.

I have watch my friends and family pets when they have gone out of town.

About: Hello, my name is Hailey! I currently work full-time through the week (Sun-Thurs 10-6) and am looking to make extra cash doing what I love - spending time with dogs! I previously have worked at a dog boarding center in Whitestown, Indiana, making me suitable to take care of your pet, whether it be feeding, exercising, or even medicating them for you while you’re away at work, traveling, whatever the case may be! While I have experience with all kinds of animals, currently I have two large breed dogs, an Australian Shepherd mix who is 6 years old and an Alaskan Malamute who is 7 years old! Both are dog and people friendly, so your dog can have a playmate, or we can arrange your pet to have space to him/herself if necessary! As I have worked for a business that is used to various pets having various needs, I will do my best to accommodate you in any way necessary! I also am used to working with cats (as the dog boarding also has a cat portion as well) so I am more than happy to help your feline friends, too! Hope to see you soon! I have open availability outside of Sun-Thurs 10-6. I work hard to make sure that I am transparent about the time I have to spend with your pets! I have a lot of experience watching other people’s pets, as well as being a lifelong owner of dogs. I love all breeds and ages!

About: I've been caring for my own family pets for over 10 years and have also provided pet care for friends and family while they travel. I'm comfortable with daily feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, administering simple routines, cleaning up after pets, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I'm able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Pets are rarely left alone for long periods, and I can easily adapt my schedule to meet their routine. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow each family's care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special routines. I provide a calm, loving environment with plenty of supervision and positive attention. While my family loves animals and my children enjoy helping with supervised play and affection, I am the adult responsible for all pet care and supervision. I believe in treating every pet like one of our own and keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they can relax while they're away.
“Jinna took great care of our dog. She provided updates throughout the day and was very accommodating when our timeline changed last minute. We highly recommend and will definitely book again”
About: I have been taking care of friends and family’s pet for 5+ years now. My sister used to do rover and I used to help her out, she moved to a different state so I decided to open my own rover. I work from home so i can take pets out for walk and provide pee and potty breaks anytime. I work from home so I am usually home whole day and I’m home in the evening time as well to take care of pet. I can provide all the care the client would require for their pet either at my house or their house during any time but I prefer at my home.
About: My furry family has been growing since 2017! Over the years, we’ve rescued, puppy trained, and kitten trained our way to a home filled with three four-legged friends. During COVID, we spent about a year fostering animals through our local shelter. We quickly learned we weren’t the best foster parents because we ended up adopting one of the kittens from our very own litter! There are currently more animals in our home than humans, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. 🐾 My husband and I both work from home, which gives us the flexibility to provide walks, check-ins, and plenty of love and attention whenever your pets need it! I'm currently working full time but I work remotely so have the flexibility to come check on your animals whenever! We are also available most weekends. We have a fenced in yard, so if play time calls, they can go in and out as much as they want! We have plenty of toys and two dogs to keep them company. We also try to go on walks once or twice a day so they will get their steps in if they like to get out of the house!
“Stephanie was amazing!! Took such great care of and was so kind to Ivy. Was very flexible and gave great updates. Was very grateful for all she did for my pup and would definitely book again!”
About: Hi! I’m a stay-at-home mom offering full-time, one-on-one care for your dog in a calm, loving home. I only board one family’s pet at a time, ensuring a peaceful, low-stress environment with truly individualized attention, no overcrowding, no chaos. Because I’m home all day, your pup will never be left alone or feel lonely. I provide constant supervision, affection, and care tailored to your dog’s personality, whether that’s playtime, cuddles, structured routines, or a quiet place to relax. We also have a large, fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play and access to nearby walking trails for exercise and enrichment, so your dog can stay active while still being in a secure environment. I’ve had dogs my entire life and understand how deeply they’re loved as family. I also hold a degree in Psychology from Florida State University, which gives me a strong understanding of behavior, emotional needs, and patience—helping me create a calm, reassuring environment for every dog. We recently said goodbye to our sweet dog who lived nearly 18 wonderful years. While we aren’t ready to welcome another of our own just yet, we have so much love to give. Caring for other dogs feels like a meaningful way to honor him while giving pet parents peace of mind that their dog is safe, happy, and truly cared for. I am home full-time as a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to provide consistent supervision and companionship throughout the day. I am available for boarding and daycare most weekdays and weekends with flexible drop-off and pick-up times. Because I only accept one family’s pet at a time, early booking is encouraged. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I only care for one family’s pet at a time, which allows me to give your dog my full attention in a calm, low-stress environment. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home full-time, so your pet will have consistent supervision and companionship throughout the day. I follow your dog’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special care instructions. We have a large, fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play. For dogs who enjoy walks, we also have a quiet neighborhood trail nearby, and I’m happy to include them in my regular 3-mile walks if appropriate. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving home where your dog feels comfortable, secure, and cared for while you’re away.
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover who has grown up around dogs my entire life. I currently have two Rhodesian Ridgebacks at my family home that each weigh over 120 pounds, so I'm very comfortable handling large, energetic breeds as well as dogs of all sizes. I've always enjoyed spending time with animals, whether that's going on walks, playing outside, or simply giving them plenty of attention and companionship (I love to cuddle with dogs).

I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages if you want so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

I also have my own high-energy Border Collie, so I’m experienced in meeting the exercise, enrichment, and mental stimulation needs of active dogs while ensuring every guest gets the right balance of play and rest.

“Our energetic Doodle could not have been in better hands. My wife often worries about using overcrowded and overstimulating pet daycare. We’re so glad we found Ellie (and her dog Red!).

“Emily was great with Lena! She went beyond expectations and my dog loved her. Rover Cards were very informative and it made me feel closer to Lena while I was out of the country. I definitely recommend Emily and I trust her.”
About: Hi! I’m Jenn! I worked for more than 10 years at a local animal hospital as a receptionist and vet assistant. I have more than 20 years experience in the animal care field between volunteering and my career. I have regular pet sitting clients and am looking to expand upon that. I was the proud mama of two fur babies in my adult life and had lots and lots of pets growing up. I offer boarding and daycare in my home and can also do daily visits in yours. I have experience with dogs and cats of every age, size and breed. I have years of experience administering medications, both oral and injectable. I have cared for my own insulin dependent pet and currently care for many of my clients aging and/or ill pets. I would absolutely love to meet your fur baby! I work from home and my schedule is flexible. I do not have any pets of my own and there are no children living here. I am able to do leash walks multiple times a day as well as scheduled feedings and medication administration. I also have an invisible fence around the entire house and can use my collar (so it is the right frequency) for those pets who are already trained. My home also has a video/security system for added safety for all. I treat all my pet sitting fur babies like family! My four-legged guests have free reign of the house, except the upstairs bedrooms, and are welcome to sit with me and cuddle while we watch TV. 🐾
About: I’ve been walking dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve had countless dog sitting jobs and want to further it and continue doing something I love I work Sunday through Wednesday at our local humane society! I have experience with dogs and cats and other types of pets including small animals and large animals. I am very flexible even on the days I work. I have one dog who is extremely with every kind of dog and loves everyone and everything. Accommodations can be made to watch your pets.
About: I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds since I was younger. Family, and friends have relied on me to help house sit, walk, play dates, and take their animals to day care. I’m currently in school online, but I am available to spend time walking the animals during the week and on the weekend. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I do not have a fenced in yard, living on a huge property that they are allowed to run, but if your dog is an inside animal I am willing to bring him/her to my home. I have two friendly playful dogs of my own, they are a Golden Doodle, and a German Shorthaired Pointer. I am also willing to spend time at your home playing and walking your animals as well. I am willing to do play dates inside and outside.
“Kendra! You were amazing. Thank you for your patience on our little hiccup today. And especially thank you for walking Grizzly. I love the pictures and I am grateful for your care of our fur baby! Stacy”
About: Hello, my name is Hailey! I currently work full-time through the week (Sun-Thurs 10-6) and am looking to make extra cash doing what I love - spending time with dogs! I previously have worked at a dog boarding center in Whitestown, Indiana, making me suitable to take care of your pet, whether it be feeding, exercising, or even medicating them for you while you’re away at work, traveling, whatever the case may be! While I have experience with all kinds of animals, currently I have two large breed dogs, an Australian Shepherd mix who is 6 years old and an Alaskan Malamute who is 7 years old! Both are dog and people friendly, so your dog can have a playmate, or we can arrange your pet to have space to him/herself if necessary! As I have worked for a business that is used to various pets having various needs, I will do my best to accommodate you in any way necessary! I also am used to working with cats (as the dog boarding also has a cat portion as well) so I am more than happy to help your feline friends, too! Hope to see you soon! I have open availability outside of Sun-Thurs 10-6. I work hard to make sure that I am transparent about the time I have to spend with your pets! I have a lot of experience watching other people’s pets, as well as being a lifelong owner of dogs. I love all breeds and ages!

“Kyungyeon was AMAZING with our depressed doggie! He always mopes and eats very little when we are away, but Kyungyeon would not give up until he felt comfortable and happy in her home! We got so many pictures and updates and I am so grateful for the amazing care she took of our Obi!”
“Bethany was the most welcoming and confident host for our 12 yo poodle mix. Our dog has struggled with anxiety for years, so I was excited to see how accepting he was of being dropped off in a new-to-him environment. Bethany’s energy was perfect for his temperament, and I feel lucky to have found her for future visits. She tended to his needs, and even though he had a couple accidents- due to nerves or aging - she took this in gracious stride. We received photos and updates that made our trip away from him feel seamless. We highly recommend her, and will book with Bethany anytime she is available.”
“I'm always a little nervous to leave my dog with someone new, but Kailly was very responsive, flexible with drop off and pick up times, and sent photos of Cleo. She was so friendly and excited to meet Cleo that I felt so comfortable that Cleo would be well taken care of and she was.”
“My dogs have never had such an easy drop off! They instantly bonded with Julie’s friendly dogs and went off to explore. A great experience for our dogs. We’ll look to book again with Julie!”
“Boarded our lab puppy with Jody for several days and our experience was great! We had to extend our stay also after some unexpected changes in our schedule, and he was super accommodating. We got pictures and updates and Murphy got walks etc. It was incredibly hot also during Murphy’s stay, and Jody sent messages updating us that the dogs were in the AC etc.! Would definitely book here again!”
“Josh was super great at communicating with us and really flexible with pick up/drop off when we needed to make changes. Our dog Walter was very well taken care of and we would absolutely recommend Josh as a pet sitter!”
“Brendan is always great with our dog! We had to unexpectedly extend our time away and he was very accomodating about the changes and incredibly helpful. Our dog always comes back from Brendan’s very happy and doesn’t want to leave!”
“Rajesh was an incredible dog sitter! From the moment I left my pup, I knew he was in great hands. He treated him like family and went above and beyond by sending daily updates with photos and videos. It meant so much to see how happy and well cared for my dog was. I would 100% book with him again!”
“We were so pleased to have Jane take care of our dog over the holidays. She provided daily photos, videos and updates. Milo was clearly happy in her care and we would definitely have him stay with her again!”
“How I know Ellie is an amazing sister for Marshall? Just disassembling his crate tells him he is going and he gets very excited. He and their dog are perfect attitude for each other.”
“We’re so glad we found Diane + Kevin! Our girl was in complete heaven the entire time. We received several pictures and updates throughout. Diane + Kevin are a great stay for your pups!”
“Veronika took really good care of Daisy, sent frequent updates and made sure she was comfortable during our week long trip. Daisy came home happy and we will not hesitate to use Veronika again.”
“Christina and her family are absolutely wonderful! My pup Ellie loves her time there and I can trust she’s being so well taken care of and loved! We are moving away and will miss using Christina as our Rover sitter.”
“Zoe provided exceptional care for our dog Luna during her five‑day stay from July 1–5. She is truly a compassionate and attentive sitter. Zoe took the time to meet Luna beforehand, followed all of our feeding and walking instructions, and went above and beyond during a holiday weekend full of fireworks and storms — situations that normally cause Luna a lot of stress. Zoe used Luna’s snuggle harness and headphones exactly as instructed for fireworks and potential thunderstorms which included extra snuggling by Zoe and her son to get through these extra loud events. Luna also enjoyed fun outings with Zoe and her family, and the photos we received throughout each day were such a comfort. Luna had a great time playing in Zoe's large yard where Luna could exercise her zoomie runs with Zoe! Zoe’s kindness, reliability, and genuine love for animals were evident in every interaction. She even handled pickup and drop‑off for Luna, making the entire experience seamless. We are incredibly grateful for the care Zoe provided. Luna adored her, her son, and her extended family. We would trust Zoe again without hesitation!”
About: I've been caring for my own family pets for over 10 years and have also provided pet care for friends and family while they travel. I'm comfortable with daily feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, administering simple routines, cleaning up after pets, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I'm able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Pets are rarely left alone for long periods, and I can easily adapt my schedule to meet their routine. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow each family's care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special routines. I provide a calm, loving environment with plenty of supervision and positive attention. While my family loves animals and my children enjoy helping with supervised play and affection, I am the adult responsible for all pet care and supervision. I believe in treating every pet like one of our own and keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they can relax while they're away.
“Marietta and Nanette really love having guest pets at their home. They are welcoming and friendly, there is a chance they may spoil your dog during their stay, lol. I appreciate the time they spend on the meet and greet to ensure a good fit with their little Erin Rose and other regular clients. Highly recommend!”
“Katie & her family were just amazing. Our Pup was very well taken care of & looked very happy. Katie was communicative, she sent pictures & updates & she was also flexible & helpful. I would 100% recommend her services. Our little Pup had the best time ever under her care. Thank you Katie!”
