“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 .”
“Another great experience with Gabriel. Barnaby wagged his tail when we first arrived at Gabriel's house so we know he was excited to stay. Gabriel communicated regularly and sent photos each day. He kindly accommodated our last-minute scheduling change. We really appreciate the care and attention Gabriel provides. Absolutely 5 stars.”
“Best rover experience so far! We rebooked with Mallory and will rebook again. We love her flexibility, reliability and amazing updates. Our little guy loves his time with her. He’s truly treated like a king with Mallory.”
“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!”
“Yelena was great! She watched my four month old puppy and did a great job slowly introducing her dogs to him so that he was comfortable. She also sent a lot of pictures and videos giving me updates on how he’s doing. I’ll definitely reach out again in the future.”
“Julie and her family took incredible of our golden while we were out of the country!! This is our second time leaving Lily with Julie and we definitely will be again in the future. Thank you so much, again, Julie!! :)”
“Amy has been someone we trust with our furry friend. We've used her 3 or 4 times now and will continue to use her as we need. Easy to work with and great communication. Thank you, Amy.”
“Ellie took great care of Obi! He isn’t a dog that warms up quickly to others, but he seemed right at home wi the them! Ellie was loving from the beginning and I’m hoping they can be his home away from home from now on ❤️”
“Kylie was an amazing sitter. My cats almost didn’t want to leave! She sent pictures with updates which kept my mind at ease. Will definitely be using her again when visiting family :)”
“We had never left our Mellie (Maltese) with anyone. We chose Kara and couldn’t have made a better choice! Mellie was instantly fond of Kara. Kara is sweet, thoughtful and very easy to communicate with. We have several more trips planned in 2024 and will definitely use Kara again.”
“Literally the most incredible sitter. I had just gotten a little puppy, Elvis, recently and was terrified to leave him with a sitter for the first time. I would trust Sam with my life!!! She sent me so many photos and updates, and followed my list of things to a T. She is so awesome and I will definitely be booking her again. Such a great sitter, and I can tell she’s a great person too!!! And I think my dog loved her too hahah!!”
“This is the first time I have left my dog with anyone outside of family and I could not be happier with our choice of a caregiver. Nancy and her husband were so good with our dog and I’m sure she was spoiled the whole weekend! I definitely recommend and would use again!”
“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.”
“Christopher (and his son) were the best sitters we’ve ever has. Our dog gets anxious easily and this is the first home we feel at ease knowing she is 100% happy, safe, and cared for. He sends updates and pictures and is very understanding and flexible with scheduling. HIGHLY recommend.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and have hands on experience with puppies, high energy dogs, and caring for multiple dogs at once. I work part time at a dog grooming shop as a bather, I interact with many different dogs. What sets me apart is my patience, attentiveness, and ability to adapt to each dog’s unique personality and routine. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, bathing, basic training reinforcement, and giving dogs plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I genuinely treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits into my schedule as I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible but structured routine. I’m able to balance my job while still making time for pet care during my off days, mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m reliable with planning ahead so I can make sure each pet gets consistent attention, walks, and care without feeling rushed. Even with a part-time job, I prioritize being fully present and dependable when I’m caring for animals. In my client’s home, I always follow their instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their normal routine. I make sure pets are safe, supervised, and never left unattended for long periods. I keep water fresh, follow feeding schedules, and provide regular walks, playtime, and attention. I’m careful with doors, leashes, and any safety concerns to prevent escapes or accidents. I also respect the home by keeping it clean, organized, and treating it with care, just like I would my own.
“Kyla was amazing!! She dropped in many times throughout the weekend to feed, change our kitties water, and spend some time playing with them! Our kitties & family both loved her and will be surely returning for services as she is very professional, so so kind, and truly has a huge heart for animals!! 😇”
“Jordan was a wonderful sitter and took such great care of my cat while my husband and I were on a long trip. She was consistent with her care and provided detailed updates and adorable pictures. Our chronically shy cat really warmed up to Jordan and they were fast friends. As a bonus, Jordan’s sons were welcome and respectful additions. I loved that our cat got to interact with multiple caring people while we were away.”
“Brittney has been wonderful on our recent trip. We reached out to her for a last-minute vacation and she quickly learned everything about our home and pets. Brittney was very responsive to our calls and texts and sent pictures during visits and overnights. We plan on hiring her again for future trips. Thank you, Brittney!!!”
“Elizabeth did a great job of taking care of my cats. She came everyday and sat with them too… a first in pet sitting for me. Incredibly trustworthy, super sweet, and a pleasure to meet; will be booking Elizabeth on my next trip away, for sure!”
About: I've been surrounded by cats by whole life and bring calm, patience, and genuine affection to every visit. I take time to know each cat's personality, making sure they feel safe and cared for while you're away. Visits include plenty of pets, engaging play, fresh food and water, and a clean litter box. Based in Cincinnati, I'm available for catsitting and drop-ins anywhere in the metro area. My flexible schedule and free weekends allow me to adapt to your cat's routine. I'm experienced with oral and topical medications and always treat every cat as if they were my own.
“Paige was delightful to work with and Kylie really seemed to love her! Paige was very consistent with he timing in the morning and even spent some extra time there on her last visit which was greatly appreciated! Paige also took some amazing photos during her visits which we have actually added to our photo album. Overall, Paige was wonderful and the next time we have to travel we will definitely be rebooking with her!”
About: I’ve had the opportunity to cat sit on multiple occasions for friends and my softball coach, caring for their cats while they were away. My responsibilities included feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, spending quality time with the cats, and making sure they stayed comfortable and on their normal routine. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, so I take the time to earn their trust and provide care that fits their individual needs. My goal is to make sure each cat feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for while giving owners peace of mind through reliable communication and updates.
“We are so pleased with the service that Iris provided for our senior kitty, Marilyn, while we were away on vacation! Iris was a great communicator throughout and very patient and thorough with the care she provided. Iris exudes a true love and passion for animals. We would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Synthia has been absolutely fantastic each time she’s cat sat for us. She is so communicative and it’s clear that she really cares about making sure the cats are staying happy and healthy! I feel so fortunate that we found Synthia as a cat sitter!”
“Kasmine was an amazing cat sitter, other than a miscommunication on the first day, she was absolutely amazing, keep the apartment clean and cat cuddled and well taken care of would for sure hire again!”
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 am a mom and local school teacher! My family would love to take care of your baby. We have watched many dogs throughout the years and would love to meet you! **Out for summer break so home the majority of the time!**. I can run home to let out to potty if needed.

About: Hi furry families! My name is Iris and I’m an animal inspired gal. I have owned multiple breeds of dogs/cats throughout my lifetime from family mutts to tea cup chihuahuas to 100lb terriers but I do have an extra special place in my heart for bullies.

“This was our first time using a dog sitter and Rover. Gabriel was super friendly and made us and our dog feel comfortable. I could tell my dog was well taken care of and will gladly use Gabriel again.”
“They are so wonderful, nice, accommodating, and took great care of our girl! We loved getting updates throughout daycare and love that they have two sweet similar pups themselves! Thank you so much for everything!”
About: Although I have more experience with cats, I love all pets in all sizes! I will treat your fur baby exactly the way they are supposed to be treated, like a member of the family. I will make sure your pets are well cared for, loved, and I will try my best to make sure you receive updates along the way because that is what I would like, if it were me. If your buddy needs medicine or special care instructions, I am happy to oblige. I want to make sure your pet feels the least amount of stress possible, because I know how hard it can be when they are away from you. I'm a stay-at-home mom, so I have plenty of time during the week to care for your pet and take them for walks. Boarding can happen any day of the week. I have 2 kitties and a pup at home with an unfenced yard in a safe neighborhood. I will make sure your fur baby is cared for on the schedule you need to keep them on track. I do not have a crate, but if you'd like to provide one, I'm happy to crate your baby as needed. Because I stay at home, I will be picking up my kids from school during school days and would love to be able to bring your buddy with me during that time (if they aren't stressed about it).

“Brendan took such good care of my dog Minnie, and was able to help me out with doggy day care pretty last minute! Minnie loved spending time with his dog and she was exhausted by the end of the day when I picked her up from all the playing. Thank you Brendan!”
“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!). Luna is so happy to go there and we have no doubt she is safe. Bonus that she still comes home tired from all her fun!”

About: I have been around animals my entire life, however, I certainly have the most experience with caring for cats and dogs as they have lived in my home all this time and still do today! I am currently on summer break for school and therefore I am available any hour of almost every day until school starts back up in the middle of August! When it comes to my own pets, my cats have full access to food as they all have the same diet, and they are additionally fed wet food twice a day. They are also given outdoor time and all of mine are trained to stay around the house and come back inside when prompted! Their litter boxes are cleaned daily, each of them are brushed regularly, etc. When it comes to dogs, my family dog is fed twice a day, taken on walks at least once a day, spends lots of time outdoors, and is groomed routinely. All of these are dependent on owners, but that is how things are done in my house hold specifically!

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and know how to love and care for each of your pets while you are away. While I do not have any professional dog experience, I’ve had dog in my family since the day I was born and had owned my own dog for about 10 years until she recently passed away. Dogs my family has had were a mutt, three Labradors, Golden Retriever, and a Belgian Malinois. The pet I recently had was a mix of a Labrador and German Short-haired Pointer. I had been to training classes recently for about 3 years as well. I have pet sit cats and lived with cats in the past so I would know how to care for a feline. Do not have a problem with cleaning litter boxes. FYI: NO LITTER BOX AT RESIDENCE (will need to bring your pets). I will make sure to be very professional, care, and love your pet as if they were my own. Looking for services inside or outside of my home. I currently work full time in Carmel Monday-Friday 8am to 4:30pm and typically have nights and weekends free. I am looking to become more active (I had a senior dog with no ability to walk) so physical activity is welcomed! I have a fenced in yard and walking trails throughout my community. No additional pets. I can easily crate your pet with a collapsible travel crate.
About: I treat every pet like family, providing personalized care, dependable service, and plenty of love and attention so owners can have peace of mind while they're away.

I am currently home for the summer from college, so i can be available whenever it is needed! Pet care can be fitted in my daily routine while i am home. I prioritize each pet's safety, comfort, and happiness by following their routine, providing plenty of attention and exercise, and keeping owners updated with photos and messages throughout their stay.
About: I’ve been surrounded by cats my whole life and bring a calm, patient vibe to every visit—but I love dogs just as much, so tail wags are always welcome too! I take time to get to know each pet’s unique personality, whether that means cozy cuddles, zoomie-fueled playtime, or just being a reassuring presence while you’re away. Expect plenty of pets, play, fresh food and water, and a sparkling clean litter box for cats—or fun walks, outdoor time, and belly rubs for dogs. Based in Cincinnati, I offer pet sitting and drop-ins across the metro area. My flexible schedule (and free weekends!) means I can stick closely to your pet’s routine. I’m experienced with oral and topical medications and treat every furry friend like my own—because they deserve nothing less 🐾 I'm currently on the hunt for a new Agency position, so my days and weeks are completely free currently. Able to be booked at any time. I tailor my care to each pet and the service you choose, because every animal has their own routine and personality. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping things as familiar and stress-free as possible—sticking closely to feeding schedules, walk routines, and favorite playtime activities. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, along with fresh food and water, and I keep their spaces clean (litter boxes, food areas, etc.). For dogs, that usually means walks, outdoor time, and lots of play (plus belly rubs, of course). For cats, I match their vibe—whether that’s interactive play or just quiet companionship and gentle pets. I’m also experienced with oral and topical medications and always keep an eye on behavior and health, so I can catch anything unusual early. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re my own, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands.

Through my experience working at a veterinary hospital, I have learned how to recognize signs of stress, illness, or discomfort and how to handle animals calmly and safely. I will carefully follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions and provide updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. I treat every pet with patience, compassion, and the same level of care I would want for my own pets.
About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have experience caring for pets for many families. I’ve owned a large dog myself, so I’m comfortable handling bigger breeds as well as dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I’ve cared for senior dogs that needed extra patience and attention, administered oral medications, taken dogs on walks, and made sure they felt safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners were away. I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I enjoy getting to know each one’s routine and personality. I also enjoy learning about dog grooming and pet care, and I’ve spent time researching proper grooming techniques and overall canine health to better care for the pets I watch. My goal is to take care of every dog extremely well while you’re away. I’ll provide plenty of love, playtime, exercise, and regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. My goal is to treat every dog with the same love, patience, and respect that I would want for my own pet.
“Gabriel did an absolute outstanding job! We will always be choosing Gabriel to look after/ walk our babies! Gabriel was very considerate and communicative, he'd always send pictures and videos. He's all around a really great guy! Loved this opportunity to have him as my dog walker!”
“I can’t recommend her enough! She has been absolutely amazing with Mollie. She always walks & plays with her, is incredibly reliable, and has been so flexible with my schedule. Mollie was always in great hands. I would highly recommend her!”
About: Hi there! I’m a big animal lover and I would love to take care of your fur baby. I'm available weekdays as well as weekends. I live 5 minutes away from a park so going for little run or a nice walk will always be something fun to do. If you plan on leaving your dog with me more than one night I'm totally comfortable with that. We have a nice fenced in play area at the apartment complex for the dogs to run around. I am willing to take your dog to get groomed or bathed if your schedule is too busy. I'm your go to girl. If your dog is ready for some adventure then let's get this party started. Thank you. I work full time, evenings from 3-11pm, but my roommate is home by 5pm at the latest, so someone will always be around. I’m also free on Friday and the weekend. My pets are allowed all over the house, they sleep in bed with me, and I let them on the couch as well. They are my roommates and have the same privileges as me lol
“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: 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!

“Jody was great! He took great care of Pickles! He took into consideration the heat of the day and didn't let him stay outside for too long. He kept us apprised of how Pickles was doing each morning and evening along with pictures. He was patient in answering questions that were asked and knowledgeable in understanding needs and met those needs. Will definitely ask him to take Pickles again.”

“We’ve had Christina and her family watch our 10 month old Cavapoo a couple times now and have had such a great experience every time! Christina is the sweetest and loves the dogs she watches. Her daughters and cats are also so gentle and great with our puppy. They send lots of photos! We went out of town for a few days and felt completely at ease knowing our puppy was with them. They give her so much love and attention, and she’s always so happy there (and she is played out when we pick her up). We feel really lucky to have found them and highly recommend! 🐾 would give them more stars if we could!:)”
“Kristan was absolutely wonderful! She provided updates and my dog Harris loved hanging out in her fenced in back yard! I would highly recommend Kristan and will be using her again for my future pet sitting needs!”
“Having two elderly furry babies makes going on a trip a truly difficult decision. We're so lucy to found this warm and loving family take really good care of them. They send us messages and photos every few days to let us know how our babies are doing, which really puts our minds at ease. Michael & Jessica are gentle and attentive, and their children are also sweet angels who love to spend time with our precious babies.”
“This was my first time using Taylor and Kevin. They watched Poppy for 7 days while I was out of town. Did a great job at communicating with me each day. Sent pictures and videos to keep me updated. They asked great questions at our meet and greet to get to know all of my dog needs. Will definitely use this family again!”
