“Absolutely amazing. Emily was able to take my dog last minute. Not only my schedule changed once but twice and she was very flexible and manage to take care of my dog. My dog got neutered the same day and she did an amazing job watching over him. Not only that I was happy but my dog was filled with joy as well. Would definitely rebook 🥹”
“Addison took such wonderful care of our dog Lily, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Addison was incredibly attentive, kept us updated, followed all of Lily’s care instructions, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Lily came home happy, comfortable, and well cared for, which means everything to us. We would absolutely trust Addison with Lily again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and thoughtful pet sitter. Thank you Addison, for taking such great care of our little girl!”

“Savanna did an amazing job taking care of our kitten! She was very accommodating to his needs and ours--meeting us first and discussing all the details, feeding him as often as he needed at his age. We got pictures and videos of him while we were on our trip. He was in great hands!”
“Breanna did a great job of caring for Bailey. It was good for Bailey to be around other dogs and children and Breanna was considerate of all involved, making the introductions with sensitivity and good sense. I will call on her again for sure.”
“Nicole was wonderful with our new puppy. She sent pictures and videos during our time away from our baby. It was so reassuring to know she was in good hands. We will definitely allow Nicole to sit for us again.”

“There are not enough good things to say about Emily! It was like having a friend I’ve known for years look after my pet! The open communication and reassurance she provided is unmatched. She was patient with the fact I’ve never boarded my cat, so was a little nervous with how he’d do…but she was so understanding, compassionate and loving towards my little guy! I picked Emily randomly…and am so thankful I did!! Highly recommend and now feel at ease with any future trips…as I’ll be using her again.”

“Allyson was an absolute lifesaver! When my regular sitter was on vacation, she stepped in and took amazing care of my YorkiePoo for 6 days. She came twice daily to walk and play with him, which was such a relief while I was working remotely. From the very first Meet & Greet, my pup was smitten—tail wagging nonstop and showering her with kisses! It’s clear she has a wonderful way with dogs. I couldn’t have asked for a better backup sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Monica watched our pets and she did an amazing job! She kept us updated and sent us photos of our babies. I am so happy with her service and look forward to using her services again!!”
“Sarah did an excellent job with our girls Molly and Chloe. Molly is very picky about who she "likes". I was happy to see her playing and coming out when Sarah was there. I will definitely book Sarah again when we need someone in the future.”
“Absolutely LOVE using Kara! She did drop ins for our cat while we were gone on vacation and apparently we developed an ant issue while we were gone. Kara caught it and then went and got ant traps for us and took care of the issue so we didn’t have to worry! She is so sweet with the animals and I don’t think I would use anyone else !”
“Angela watched our two cats while we were away. Both cats require daily medicine, and Angela was a pro at gaining their trust and delivering the medicine (both topical and oral). We would definitely recommend Angela to take excellent care of your cats!”
“So glad we found Lexi! During our meet and greet, the dog and many of the cats fell in love with her at first sight. Lexi did all the drop-in visits, and everyone was very well taken care of. I would absolutely ask Lexi to take care of our four-leggeds again!”

About: 🐾 Registered Veterinary Technician Providing Exceptional Pet Care 🐾 Hi! My name is Kelsey, and I am a Registered Veterinary Technician with 7 years of experience in the veterinary field. I currently work in both general practice and shelter medicine, where I care for pets of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments every day. Animals have always been my passion. I became a veterinary technician because I wanted to give animals a voice and help ensure they receive the care, comfort, and advocacy they deserve. As a pet sitter, I bring that same dedication into every visit. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting services throughout the Indianapolis area. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, medication administration, or companionship while you’re away, you can feel confident knowing they are in experienced and capable hands. My veterinary background allows me to provide a level of care that goes beyond traditional pet sitting. I am experienced in administering oral medications, insulin injections, subcutaneous fluids, and intramuscular injections. I am also trained to recognize changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, and overall health. If I notice anything concerning, I will not hesitate to contact you. At home, I share my life with a Husky, two Husky-Pitbull mixes, a German Shepherd mix, and a turtle. Caring for a diverse group of pets has given me firsthand experience with different personalities, energy levels, and care requirements. My goal is simple: to keep your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I love building relationships with both pets and their owners and treating every animal as if they were my own. I am comfortable caring for: • Dogs of all sizes and breeds • Senior pets • Puppies and kittens • Multiple-pet households • Pets requiring medications or special care • Shy, nervous, or reactive pets I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I currently work full time but my schedule is flexible! If there are any specific needs you have, I am willing to accommodate you and your fur babies :) I currently care for my pets through a large privacy fence and lots of attention! Our pets are very routine-based, but I am also flexible when client’s pets have specific needs.
“Crystal was fantastic! We decided last minute to leave town for the 4th of July, and she responded immediately to help take care of our two cats. Our boys loved her! She gave one of our cats his daily medicine, and she loved and played with our boys like they were her own. We also really appreciated the pictures she sent us! I'm sure our boys will be excited for her to visit again in the future!”
About: Cats have a special place in my heart, and I understand that each one has a unique personality and routine. As a Registered Veterinary Technician with years of experience, I'm comfortable caring for cats of all ages, including seniors and those with medical needs. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, quiet companionship, or simply having their routine maintained, I'll provide patient, attentive care while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in your absence.
About: I have had and cared for pets my entire life. Highly experienced with dogs and cats from puppy/kittens to seniors. I am comfortable enough with all animals that with some instruction I can care for anything. Experience in administering medication, even with cats. Patient with all animal personalities. I am very detail oriented and thorough. Reliable and great with instructions. I love animals and since semi-retiring I thought it would be nice to spend time caring for them when owners are on vacation or just need a little extra help. I practice reward based motivation. Semi-retired with plenty of time to play with and care for your animals. Happy to care for in home or take for walks. I can do multiple drop-ins a day. I am very good with instructions and will abide by any house rules and needs required for your pet. Experience house and pet sitting prior to joining Rover.
“Danielle is amazing! She took care of our elderly kitties and gave one of them meds twice a day, kept the kitty box clean and sent pics of our babies! Thank you Danielle your the best!”
“Tilmer is an excellent sitter! He took great care of my cats and provided detailed drop in updates. He sent photos and let me know how they were doing.

“Tracy has been so patient and kind with our pup. CC is a shy but goofy little girl and we worried about finding someone who would wait for her to adjust to their home. Tracy has been so good with her and we just love knowing she is safe and cared for while we are away.”
About: I have had dogs for the past 40 years and cannot imagine my house without them. I have one dog currently, Toby. He is a very sweet boy who loves all dogs and people. I would love to pamper your fur baby! I am retired and have all day to take care of your special fur baby. I would love to play with your dog and make them feel special. I have a fully fenced in yard with a privacy fence, and also a doggy door, so your pooch is able to go out and in as they wish. My dog, Toby, is very social and friendly so your baby will have a playmate.
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.
“Moose had such a great time with Brittany and Waylon! Brittany is very thorough in making sure she knows everything about your pet and ensures they have a great stay. Thank you, Brittany!”
“Nicole and her family are the best. We have been bringing Pearl here about a year and a half now. She was able to get me booked last minute this weekend. Like, within the hour last minute. We love having a great place to take Pearl and not have to worry about her!!”
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!
“Destinee has been great to work with! My schedule changes a bit and I haven't had any issues scheduling or communicating. And Miss Josie loves going over there, that's the best part!”
“As always, Hank had SO MUCH fun today with Mrs. Emily!! He got to play outside with the other dogs and dig in the dirt, and those are his most favorite things to do!! (He also got a bath after covering himself in dirt:) And mom gets to go to work worry free when Hank is with her.. We’re SOO thankful we found Mrs. Emily!! She’s the best sitter EVER!!!!”
“Janet was absolutely wonderful! My dog Pumpkin stayed with her for the entire day for daycare, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She kept me updated and let me know how he was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind. Janet is so kind and caring, and it’s obvious she truly loves the dogs she watches. Her sweet basset hound, Mildred, is absolutely adorable too! Pumpkin came home happy, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such great hands all day. I would absolutely book with Janet again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my little guy! 💕🐶”
About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by animals, which taught me how to read their body language and understand their needs from a young age. On top of that, I bring six years of professional dog grooming experience to my pet sitting. This means your pet isn't just getting a companion—they are staying with a professional who knows how to handle coat care, spot skin issues early, and keep anxious dogs calm and comfortable. Our daily routine starts in the morning with a quick potty break, followed by individual feedings so everyone can eat safely and at their own pace. Afterward, we head out for our morning walk or yard play while energy is high, followed by a quiet midday nap/relaxation to let food safely digest. Throughout the afternoon, your dog will get another bathroom break, a professional coat brush-out to check skin health, and some mental enrichment like puzzle toys or lick mats. As we transition into the evening, we serve dinner according to your exact instructions and burn off any remaining energy with a fun sunset play session. Finally, at night, we wind down with plenty of couch cuddles in a true home environment before a final potty break and a peaceful, secure lights-out. Every pet in my care receives individualized attention focused on their physical safety and emotional well-being. I design a calm, low-stress environment where your pet can relax, ensuring their unique routines are strictly followed to prevent anxiety. By carefully reading their body language, I respect their personal boundaries and use gentle, patient interaction to build genuine trust at their own pace. Safety is always my top priority, which means I maintain secure environments, supervise all activities, and use my professional handling skills to keep every situation controlled and peaceful. Your pet will never be rushed or forced into interaction, giving them the secure, comfortable home-away-from-home experience they deserve.
“We are truly thankful and appreciative for Jessica! She was not only attentive, professional, and reliable, but more importantly, we trusted the care and safety provided by her. If I can confirm your belief or bring comfort to the idea of leaving your loved ones, then book Jessica. She (and her adorable pup, Sunny) are the one for you!”
About: I’ve had animals my entire life, most of which was more than 3 dogs at a time! I’ve had everything from small 30 pound mutts to 120+pound mastiffs. I currently work from home and have 2 wonderful pittie pups, one of which is a tripod. I live in a quiet neighborhood in Plainfield perfect to host your fur baby while you’re away! I work from home and am able to do drop ins, walks, can stay in your home, or host your fur babes at our house. I don’t have human kids, only fur kids! I have a fenced in yard and have 2 dogs of my own. I have a house that has plenty of space for everyone to feel comfortable and safe.
“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.”
“Let me first say, I was a little skeptical about using Jackson. But once I met him, some of those worries washed away. I still worried, but throughout the day Jackson communicated and sent photos and my worries washed away. Jackson is the ultimate professional and Milo was extremely happy and pooped when we picked him up. Finding out Jackson offers other services, and I think we have found our new EVERYTHING. I'm already reaching out for a booking tomorrow.”
“Jaclyn is the BEST! I was so nervous to leave my puppy with someone but he comes home with the biggest smile and I know he was well taken care of :) I can tell he plays hard over there with her dogs! Nothing but great things to say ❤️”
About: Hey there! I am Jen. I can’t walk past a dog without saying hi. Love being active outdoors, going for walks, and making new animal friends. Pets bring so much joy, and I’m here to make sure they have just as much fun (and comfort!) while you’re gone- as they do when you’re home. I work from home, with a fenced in yard. I often just keep the back door open, unless it's winter... so they can explore and potty as they wish. I think animals do better with company so we really like the social aspect of this app where animals can be together with each other
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: I've taken care of all sorts of animals (including farm) since I was old enough to drive. I was also a vet tech for years!!!

I have a fenced in yard and a big fur baby of my own to keep your baby company and entertained. The more the merrier.
“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!”
“Very happy with Aña’s care of my two dogs! They can be a handful, but both took to her immediately. She gave them several walks throughout the week and always communicated when she was heading over, and often sent a text letting me know how it went in addition to the thorough Rover cards. Upon coming home I was further reassured of the care and exercise provided by Aña’s services as the dogs did not boredom destroy anything, there were no accidents in the house, and both dogs seemed happy! Definitely planning on rebooking!”
About: I grew up with labs and when I was in high school, my mom adopted cats. I adopted my own cats in January and November of 2023. Through my time on Rover and Wag!, I have experience with all sorts of dogs! My gallery consists of all of the animals I have cared for as well as my own pets:) I am in my last year of my full-time Master’s program and am in a part-time internship downtown MWF from 9-4 as well as working part-time three days/week downtown. I know I have a busy schedule and I understand if this doesn’t work for your pet’s needs, but know that I will give your pet/s all of my love and attention and the best care possible when I am with them:) I do my best to go off of their needs and their schedule! If a pup needs a little bit to get comfortable with me, I let them take their time before I approach them or before we do anything. First and foremost, I want everyone to feel comfortable.
About: What sets me apart is a combination of specialized, hands-on care experience and a commitment to personalized, stress-free care. I am trained in managing complex senior care needs, including medication administration, while also focusing on positive reinforcement training to help puppies build confidence and good manners. My goal is to create a safe, loving environment where your pet feels as comfortable as they do when you are at home. I am able to stop by as many times as needed everyday throughout the week (Monday-Friday) after 3:00Pm and able to stop by as many times as needed on the weekends (Saturday and Sunday) after 3:00Pm. Caring for pets requires prioritizing safety, building trust through communication, and maintaining a secure environment. Key actions include adhering strictly to routines (feeding, walking), securing hazards (cleaning supplies, small objects, gates), and keeping detailed records of veterinary contacts. Daily photo updates and maintaining hygiene ensure peace of mind.

I currently work a part time 3 days a week so I’m open on Wednesday and Friday mornings to help out and possibly do some sitting if my schedule allows it. Feel free to message me and we can work it out :). When caring for your baby, I will make sure to send plenty of photos and updates. I have used other sitters in the past and appreciate the reports I would get from them regarding my pup was doing and it always made my day. I am a very active individual so I love going on long walks with my pup Millie. We’d love for your dog to join us! I have plenty of experience feeding, giving meds, playtime, and lots of snuggles!
“Danielle is amazing! She took care of our elderly kitties and gave one of them meds twice a day, kept the kitty box clean and sent pics of our babies! Thank you Danielle your the best!”
About: I have spent my entire life surrounded by animals, which taught me how to read their body language and understand their needs from a young age. On top of that, I bring six years of professional dog grooming experience to my pet sitting. This means your pet isn't just getting a companion—they are staying with a professional who knows how to handle coat care, spot skin issues early, and keep anxious dogs calm and comfortable. Our daily routine starts in the morning with a quick potty break, followed by individual feedings so everyone can eat safely and at their own pace. Afterward, we head out for our morning walk or yard play while energy is high, followed by a quiet midday nap/relaxation to let food safely digest. Throughout the afternoon, your dog will get another bathroom break, a professional coat brush-out to check skin health, and some mental enrichment like puzzle toys or lick mats. As we transition into the evening, we serve dinner according to your exact instructions and burn off any remaining energy with a fun sunset play session. Finally, at night, we wind down with plenty of couch cuddles in a true home environment before a final potty break and a peaceful, secure lights-out. Every pet in my care receives individualized attention focused on their physical safety and emotional well-being. I design a calm, low-stress environment where your pet can relax, ensuring their unique routines are strictly followed to prevent anxiety. By carefully reading their body language, I respect their personal boundaries and use gentle, patient interaction to build genuine trust at their own pace. Safety is always my top priority, which means I maintain secure environments, supervise all activities, and use my professional handling skills to keep every situation controlled and peaceful. Your pet will never be rushed or forced into interaction, giving them the secure, comfortable home-away-from-home experience they deserve.
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: Over 7 years experience caring for all different kinds of animals in all capacities! I know how to administer medication, orally or injection, and wouldn’t mind doing so. I received my trainers certification from Catch Trainers Academy in 2024 and am well versed in dogs language and behavior. I’m also pet CPR/first aid certified through the Red Cross. I’m a full time pet sitter & dog trainer so I’m able to have an extremely accommodating schedule because of this. This allows me to be there for pet parents when needed! **House sitting is for the hours of 5pm-8am - price reflects 6 hours of care | please reach out if you have different needs** I believe in patiently caring for every animal, as every animal is different and special in their own way. Your animal will be loved on and given plenty of cuddles and treats. I’m willing to walk them wherever is convenient. If your dog just wants to chill (it’s like that sometimes) we can hang out. I can properly and gently re-crate any dogs and, if needed, put up any cats.

“There are not enough good things to say about Emily! It was like having a friend I’ve known for years look after my pet! The open communication and reassurance she provided is unmatched. She was patient with the fact I’ve never boarded my cat, so was a little nervous with how he’d do…but she was so understanding, compassionate and loving towards my little guy! I picked Emily randomly…and am so thankful I did!! Highly recommend and now feel at ease with any future trips…as I’ll be using her again.”
“First time using Mary for our boys George and Frank on a week long trip. Having recently moved from the PNW we have had to find our new “dog people” and this has been very anxiety provoking! Mary was great with them and sent me pictures throughout the week, we added on baths at the end of the week so they were fresh for our return. We will absolutely send them to Mary’s for our future vacations ?”
