“Outstanding care of our beloved Schnauzer! This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t be more pleased with Chris. Our dog came home happy instead of traumatized when she’s had to stay at kennel. Chris even sent pictures and updates while we were gone. Thank you!”
“D is absolutely wonderful. She took perfect care of our pup, sent photos and videos, and was very responsive. She ensured that Luna followed all of our rules so she did not forget her training, while also showing extra care and attention so she did not get lonely. Our pup just loved her and it was evident that she felt right at home. We will definitely be returning.”
“Julie took very good care of Lilo. She provided timely updates with pictures. Both of her dogs are very friendly. Lilo had a great time and looking forward to use Julie for future pet sittting needs.”
“I couldn't have asked for better care for my sweet baby Myla! Kevin & Diana went above and beyond to make sure she felt at home, showering her with love and attention. They kept me updated with adorable photos and videos, which put my mind at ease while I was away. Myla came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared for. Thank you so much for your kindness and professionalism—I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for trustworthy and wonderful dog sitters!”
“Jane took amazing care of our 10 month old puppy, and her dog was a great playmate. I felt she cared for our pup as if she were her own. Each evening she’d send a detailed update and several photos and even videos of our happy pup. This resulted in the most worry-free arrangement we could have asked for. Great communication, reliable and kind interaction all around. Very grateful and we highly recommend Jane!”
“I always get so nervous and guilty leaving my dog behind when I am out of town but Odalys made it so easy. I got tons of pics and was very comfortable knowing my dog was in great hands. She is extremely professional and responsive. I definitely recommend.”
“Thank you to Danielle and family. They all accepted my Suga with open arms and made her feel at home. Suga was happy to see me, and at the same time it was hard for her to leave. I highly recommend them and definitely will be using them in the future.”
“Sara was amazing! She sent lots of pics and updates. She was very responsive to my messages. I will definitely be a repeat client. My pup was so happy with her and her dogs. Thanks sara for taking such great care of my sweet boy!”
“Graham had a great time at Claudia’s house! She sent us pictures and kept a log of all of his activities for us to see when we picked him up. Graham was certainly well taken care of while we were gone. Thank you Claudia!”
“Jett had a wonderful time! I think he wanted to stay longer & play 😂 We were thrilled to get tons of pictures and videos of our baby as well as really good communication while we were away. Thank you for taking such good care of him and I know he’s looking forward to the next play date!”
“My dog Kobe had a great experience for 4 days being taken care by Rajesh. Words cannot describe how happy we are and now my dog is missing Rajesh and wants to go back.”
“Thank you for being so flexible when the airlines put us in a bind! I love that he was loving on you as much as me when I picked him up! What a great sign of his enjoyment all week! Thank you!!”
“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”
“Mallory was phenomenal watching Mozzie on a last minute booking. Sent pictures and kept us up to date on what he was doing. Taking him out to the dog park and playing with other puppers. Even sent him home with some dog treats :) highly highly recommend. If I come back to Indiana and need a sitter, she’s who I would book every time.”
“Kailly was so good with our pup! She walked him twice daily and gave him a lot of love and attention. She's also very flexible and communicates/replies very quickly. We'll definitely be using her again!”
“Once again Nelli had a good stay & it's comforting to know she's being well taken care of when we're gone. We had an "incident" with our camper, which led to a later start home, plus hit Chicago at the wrong time. Karen was very understanding & accommodating with our later than planned pickup time. Appreciated that so much!”
“Thank you so much for letting my pup stay with you and Toby. For those reading this, Rosie's communication is superb as she responded to our messages within a minute or two and sent lots of pictures. Watching how she and Toby interacted with Buddy made me realize he would be in excellent care. Rosie was the most responsible doggie sitter I've ever dealt with, and we'll be repeat clients for sure.”
“Melissa did a fantastic job with Chloe. She went above and beyond when my plans changed. Chloe was very well taken care of & we had no trouble resuming our normal schedule as soon as I returned after a 10 day trip. I received updates via text, photos & movies. I will be using her services again : )”
“Stephanie was fantastic with my two, rather large pitties. Being a first time Rover user and really a first time pet sitter user in general, I was very apprehensive to what felt like giving up my dogs to a stranger. But any apprehension I had quickly went away with Stephanie. She gave constant updates and sent pictures on a daily basis of my pups playing in her beautiful fenced in backyard. She clearly has a love for dogs and maybe a soft spot for pitties. I would recommend her to anyone.”

“Deanna was amazing. She took great care of our three cats. We really appreciated the updates and photos from each of her visits while away traveling. It was a great peace of mind knowing that she was checking in on them each day.”
About: Since I was 14, I’ve been responsible for taking care of my own dogs and those of my neighbors, family, and friends. I come from a large dog family, from a Great Pyrenees to Labs and German Shepherds, but I’ve also been able to care for smaller dogs in my neighborhood. I’ve also cared for sensitive and reactive dogs who came from hard backgrounds, so I have experience taking it slow to build trust. I also care for cats as well, with experience from my own 13 year old orange cat and my mom’s two crazy kittens. Whether it’s taking them on walks, playing tug of war, giving them meds, or just keeping them company, I love any time I get to spend with fur babies. I’m preparing to leave for a scholarship in Poland at the end of September after graduating with my Master’s degree in May, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am free most days and times with the exception of a few days with prior commitments throughout the summer. I strive to provide the best care with the utmost respect for you and your fur baby’s home. If there’s anything I should know about your pet’s care preferences or any neighborhood/environmental concerns, please let me know so that I may keep your pet safe at all times. I have experience with fenced in yards and open areas, as well as plenty of experience with flight risk dogs (those German Shepherds love to run!) and returning them safely home. My goal is to keep your pet and place safe and clean until you return home.
“Raelyn did a wonderful job watching our cat, Soleil! The day before we left for vacation, we had to take him to the vet because he seemed to be having some kidney issues. This made me extra nervous to leave him, but I was put at ease with all the pictures and updates Raelyn provided. Raelyn’s communication and love for animals (especially cats) is top notch and we will definitely be booking her again.”
About: With a background as a Veterinary Tech and a lifetime of personal experience, I offer expert care tailored to your cat's unique personality. Whether your feline friend is a social butterfly who needs non-stop play or a 'wallflower' who prefers quiet companionship from a distance, I excel at reading their cues and respecting their boundaries. As a dedicated cat owner myself, I am highly experienced in daily medication administration and understand the importance of maintaining a routine. I am well-versed in feline enrichment—from providing high-perch views to safe hiding spots—ensuring your cat feels secure, stimulated, and loved while you are away.
“Brelynn is amazing! She was so kind and gentle with my senior dog, who needs medicine hidden in wet food and also needs assistance getting up and down the stairs to my deck. Even in frigid January temperatures, Brelynn gave my dog the outdoor time she needed and then cuddled with her indoors for the rest of the visit. She gave my dog more time and attention than I can provide over a rushed lunch hour, and I’m so grateful for the loving care she gave my doggy!”
About: I’ve lived with cats for as long as I can remember. I remember when I was about 10, I bought so many books about cats and decided they were my favorite animal. They are such interesting lil guys that have huge personalities. I love getting to know each individual kitty I meet. I have 7 cats of my own and I know that each one has a weird trait. One is picky about how deep the litter is, one is picky about which bowl she eats from, stuff like that
“We highly recommend Zachary! He took great care of our kitties for 2 weeks. we could not have been more pleased. We loved getting pictures of our boys while on vacation. We will definitely use him again.”
About: I have never had a cat of my own due to family allergies but have sat for families with cats and for friends who have multiple cats at home. I do not mind claws or playful cats I understand that can be part of their love
About: I am kind, tidy, and endlessly patient with my furry clients. I’m Humane Society-trained in cat care, and I’ve spent years as the go-to pet sitter for neighbors’ and family members’ dogs. Whether it’s a shy rescue cat or an energetic pup, I bring the same mix of gentleness and reliability to every visit. I am very flexible; I can do all week. I can do both mornings and nights. I am available from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm, and those times work best for me. Your pet’s care is my top priority. I provide fresh water at all times and feed them one to two meals a day, depending on your pet’s routine — plus daily walks, playtime in the yard, and any training reinforcement they need. I’ll brush them when needed and give treats in the exact amounts you specify, always making sure they’re happy and comfortable. You’ll get plenty of photos and videos along the way so you can see how much fun they’re having! I also take great care of your home while you’re away. I make sure your pet leaves no mess behind, water indoor and outdoor plants as needed, and even help out with light housework like vacuuming and mopping. Your home will be just as clean — if not cleaner — than when you left it.
About: Whether it’s playtime with toys, brushing, or just keeping them company while they nap, I genuinely love spending time with cats. I understand how unique each cat’s personality is — some want all the attention, and some prefer quiet companionship — and I’m happy to adjust to what makes them feel most comfortable and safe.
About: I am a mom of two boys ages 14 and 12. They are both very responsible and loving to all animals.I am a behavior specialist with elementary schools and love being around people.

Thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope I will be able to help many families.

“Dustin is terrific! Our dog, who had undergone some minor surgery earlier in the week, was in good hands. We wanted to be sure she didn't bother her stitches, and Dustin kept a close eye on that. Tess got along well with his dogs, and the property is lovely. We had no worries with Dustin on the job!”
About: I’ve had dogs and other pets for as long as I can remember. When I was about 10, I became obsessed with reading about different dog breeds and their needs. My first job actually working with pets was a dog daycare. I loved building connections with the pups and their parents. At this job, I learned defensive handling skills (how to avoid or break up fights or attacks) and how to handle reactive, scared, and stubborn dogs. I work shorter hours on weekends so I’m able to make plenty of time for your baby, plus my wife is always home and will occasionally help care for your pet when I’m not around. I like to have group play or just time outside when it’s cool in the mornings and evenings. I have a fenced backyard that I check for holes daily and an open front yard (leashes at all times out front). I’m able to crate your dog at anytime they might need it and can even have them in a separate room if crates aren’t their thing. Another bonus is that my wife is home just about full time and is able to care for your pet when I’m not around. If I’m at your house, I will take your dog outside on a leash the first few times just to see how they are and to make sure they aren’t an escape artist once mom/dad is gone
About: ABOUT ME: Completely insured WITH Animal Bailee Insurance and Vet Protection Coverage through PCI. I have been on and off Rover since I was in college and own my small business. I am a previous dog owner. My animals were not only my pets, but they were my family. I had my Labrador for 13 years and my Boxer mix for 15 years. We used to love to take long strolls around the neighborhood and visit our pals at the local dog park. We would cook dinner and lounge around watching our favorite flicks. We even took car rides around town when we got bored. Over the years, we went through everything from crazy puppy phases, to professional command/leash training, and experienced all medical scares (labs love to chew on EVERYTHING) under the sun. Maple was a diabetic for 7 years. I can assist with any type of need ranging from long walks, simple belly rubs, to training help. I am highly experienced in administering topical, oral and injectable medications, as well as eye and ear medications. My senior pets care needs helped build my knowledge in senior dogs. I am well educated on many types of medications and daily care pills. Whatever the need may be just ask me! EDUCATION: I am a graduate with my b.s. in buisness from Purdue. I currently am a stay at home mother, with much freedom to build my own schedule. Therefore I am always available for drop-ins and pup walks throughout the week and weekends. I am completely insured with $1M general liability, Animal Bailee Insurance, and Vet Protection Coverage. I care for pets in the same way I would care for my own pets, like family. Play time, walks, relaxing on the couch, eating treats, you know... just hanging out.

“As first-time Rover users, we were a little nervous leaving our dog with a sitter, but Rebecca & Jonathan did an incredible job and quickly put our minds at ease. They were attentive, trustworthy, and took great care of our dog. We truly appreciated the experience and would absolutely book with them again! 10/10 would recommend!”

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.

“Veronika was so welcoming and took great care of our pup. She sent me updates and pictures throughout the day and our pup had a blast. Thank you Veronika for all you do.”
“Aunty Stephanie took such great care of my boys! They are A HANDFUL, but she’s a total pro. The weather was terrible, but she still managed to wear them out each day. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were safe and having so much fun with her. I’m just glad they still wanted to come home each day!”
“Mark and Kelly were very sweet and patient with our little 14 year old dog, Roxi. Roxi stayed at their house for a couple days while we were in town visiting. She was nervous at first with the elderly dogs that lived there but Mark and Kelly made sure she had a "safe place" and over time she even started to venture out of her shell. The stay there was good for her.”
“We were so grateful that she was able to help us with a last-minute booking. She was kind, welcoming, and took wonderful care of Joy. It gave us peace of mind knowing Joy was in such good hands. We would love to have Joy stay with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“I reviewed a few months ago and wanted to follow up. At this point Zach has watched all my pups and I can’t stress enough how great he is. He takes the time to build with each dog, he asks a lot of questions, and genuinely cares about making sure they feel as comfortable as possible when we are gone. He is such a good dog sitter, and a really great guy in general. The only down side is now we don’t want to share him! Haha. Honestly though, your dog would be in very capable hands. Thanks Zach!”

“D is absolutely wonderful. She took perfect care of our pup, sent photos and videos, and was very responsive. She ensured that Luna followed all of our rules so she did not forget her training, while also showing extra care and attention so she did not get lonely. Our pup just loved her and it was evident that she felt right at home. We will definitely be returning.”
“Julie took very good care of Lilo. She provided timely updates with pictures. Both of her dogs are very friendly. Lilo had a great time and looking forward to use Julie for future pet sittting needs.”
“I couldn't have asked for better care for my sweet baby Myla! Kevin & Diana went above and beyond to make sure she felt at home, showering her with love and attention. They kept me updated with adorable photos and videos, which put my mind at ease while I was away. Myla came home happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared for. Thank you so much for your kindness and professionalism—I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for trustworthy and wonderful dog sitters!”
“Jane took amazing care of our 10 month old puppy, and her dog was a great playmate. I felt she cared for our pup as if she were her own. Each evening she’d send a detailed update and several photos and even videos of our happy pup. This resulted in the most worry-free arrangement we could have asked for. Great communication, reliable and kind interaction all around. Very grateful and we highly recommend Jane!”
“Thank you to Danielle and family. They all accepted my Suga with open arms and made her feel at home. Suga was happy to see me, and at the same time it was hard for her to leave. I highly recommend them and definitely will be using them in the future.”
“Jett had a wonderful time! I think he wanted to stay longer & play 😂 We were thrilled to get tons of pictures and videos of our baby as well as really good communication while we were away. Thank you for taking such good care of him and I know he’s looking forward to the next play date!”
“My dog Kobe had a great experience for 4 days being taken care by Rajesh. Words cannot describe how happy we are and now my dog is missing Rajesh and wants to go back.”
“Kailly was so good with our pup! She walked him twice daily and gave him a lot of love and attention. She's also very flexible and communicates/replies very quickly. We'll definitely be using her again!”
“Once again Nelli had a good stay & it's comforting to know she's being well taken care of when we're gone. We had an "incident" with our camper, which led to a later start home, plus hit Chicago at the wrong time. Karen was very understanding & accommodating with our later than planned pickup time. Appreciated that so much!”
“Melissa did a fantastic job with Chloe. She went above and beyond when my plans changed. Chloe was very well taken care of & we had no trouble resuming our normal schedule as soon as I returned after a 10 day trip. I received updates via text, photos & movies. I will be using her services again : )”
“Stephanie was fantastic with my two, rather large pitties. Being a first time Rover user and really a first time pet sitter user in general, I was very apprehensive to what felt like giving up my dogs to a stranger. But any apprehension I had quickly went away with Stephanie. She gave constant updates and sent pictures on a daily basis of my pups playing in her beautiful fenced in backyard. She clearly has a love for dogs and maybe a soft spot for pitties. I would recommend her to anyone.”
“Jessica and David took great care of Mocha. They communicated well, sent us lovely photos of our pooch during her stay, and treated her to a walk, car ride and pup cup. They are true dog people! Absolutely would book them again.”
“Ernie didn’t skip a beat while with Bethany. I appreciate that she was flexible with a schedule that kept changing due to emergency. Sweet family and furry friends .”
“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!”
“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!”
“Buddy was boarded with Emily for a few days and she did a great job, as always! Lots of pictures of Buddy over the weekend and I didn’t have to worry at all! Thank you so much!!”
“Dayna was great with Panny and although it was not a great fit for our dog in particular ( she can be a little old and grumpy) I would highly recommend her skills and sweet personality!”
“Yelena is a caring, and experienced dog sitter. My dog Lily has been recovering from knee surgery, and Yelena was very mindful of how my dog was interacting with the other dogs in her care, so she didn't reinjure her knee; and she ensured my anxious pup was comfortable when she spend the night. She sent me updates and pictures too, so I knew how Lily was doing! Yelena is great!”
“Gabriella was amazing with Skylar. From the minute we met at the meet and greet to her 4 night stay with her. Lots of pictures and updates. Skylar was living her best life! Will definitely be using her again! Thank you!!!”
