Personalized care for your dog or cat - Maxwell
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Maxwell
“Christopher took great care of our cat. It was very easy to coordinate the schedule with him. He sent regular updates and shared photos with us. He also administered medicine to our cat in a timely manner. Overall, I felt very comfortable and at ease with my cat being in safe hands while I am away. Will definitely book with him again!”
“Gabriel was beyond amazing he provided updates, pictures and videos throughout the stay! His doggies are so sweet and chill and our coco felt very much at home. I can tell by the videos that she was enjoying herself and she’s usually nervous when staying at other peoples houses. They let her sleep in their bed and snuggle and treated her as their own. You can tell they truly love animals we would 100% use them again thank you 🙏❤️”
“Samantha was great! She took great care of our pup Indie and gave us daily updates on how she was doing. Our flights were at crazy times, so she even went above and beyond by picking up and dropping her off at our house for us. I would highly recommend.”
About: I have 9 years experience of professional dog training. I have 3 shepherds of my own who I use as demo dogs when teaching classes! I work with dogs of all breeds and sizes (always love a challenge:)). I also do a lot of boarding, dog sitting and walking for a lot of my clients and bring my dogs to tag along for a full pack walk! I also do baths, nails, blow drying and brush outs! I currently make my own schedule as I do dog training, grooming and boarding. I am able to attend to every dog immediately and do not need to leave them alone long at all! Sundays are the only days where there will be a 4 hour gap due to church :) I have a fenced and yard with plenty of space to roam and run and I have my 3 shepherds to keep your fur baby company! I also have crates that I can use as well!
“I have nothing but great reviews for Brook. She is kind and communicated with me over the weekend while keeping my little guy. I felt good knowing that I left him in good hands!!”
“Kylie was great! She kept in communication with us and sent pictures of how Dolly was doing. We weren’t worried or stressed and could feel like Dolly was in a safe environment. We will definitely use Kylie again!”
“She was great with Leo. Sent great photos of Leo having fun with others. And so communicative and very friendly. Will book everytime we’re in town and highly recommend her services! 🤎”
“Brendan was a life saver! He responded to my last minute boarding request for my mastiff at close to midnight the night before the stay started😅 My boy spent two nights with Brendan and his pup. He’s never been away from home before so I was a little nervous but everything seemed to go well. Brendan was very easy to reach and he sent pictures and updates regularly. I would definitely book with Brendan again! Thanks so much!!”
“We dropped our Bonz off on Thursday afternoon and they steadily send us pictures until we got home 3 days later. We messaged a few times to check on him and no response was usually accompanied with a photo. I think he enjoyed his stay. Thank you”
“Easy communication and nice community so I felt safe leaving my senior dog. Super clean environment, felt just like home so I was sure my pup felt at ease. I didn’t have to lug the bulky cage with me, they provided one for her. I brought pee pads since my senior dog has accidents at night and food. We were gone two full nights and part of the last day. She was eager to see me and I could tell she was given plenty of attention during her stay. We rebooked for just a day to give our pup a break during a family function that is upcoming. Great experience, fantastic and communication and some photos to check in. The children are older and I felt they respected my senior pup well!”
“Yelena is simply awesome! Bella had a wonderful time, settled right into her home and back at ours without any issues! We received lots of updates and Bella was treated like part of the pack. We'll book with Yelena for as long as she's offering her services!”
“Jennifer did such an amazing job with our 2 pups! One of them ended up with an ear infection the first day we dropped off and she took such great care of him, even buying him some drops for relief. She was so great at communicating and I could tell she gave them so much love while we were away!”
“We had such a wonderful experience Lynna. She took such great care of our Bella and treated her like her own. She kept us updated throughout the stay by sending pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. She was incredibly patient and caring—even hand-fed our little one when needed! Her two dogs were also so sweet and well-behaved, and they got along wonderfully. She even went the extra mile and did a little photoshoot for our pup, which was absolutely adorable! 🥰📸 We truly appreciate all the love, attention, and care she gave our dog. We would definitely recommend Lynna and would happily book with her again! ❤️🐾”
“Louie was very happy at Sharon’s and even had a play date. He got walked and Sharon went above and beyond with texts, pictures, and videos. We would definitely go back.”
“Mae and I love Mary! She gives me updates and sends lots of pictures while I’m away. Mae can be a pretty anxious pup, but she settled right in. Mary learns the ins and outs of each pup that stays with her, and she really works to make them comfortable. I completely trust Mary with my Mae.”
“My pup was very loved and pampered while staying with Jennifer. She took her for walks, made sure she was eating and always had water, let her outside to play, even turned on my dog's favorite TV show when she was bored. I will absolutely be booking Jennifer again soon! Thanks!”
“Candie was awesome! I was so nervous to leave my pups and she made it such an easy experience. She sent me pictures every day, updated me, she made my nerves calm a lot. For sure taking my pups to her again!”

“She did an amazing job taking care of our cats while we were gone. She pilled our epileptic cat twice daily for the weekend we were away! Very thankful for her and a great Rover sitter for cats, especially those that need medication!”
About: I have had cats all my life and have been the proud owner of a mini Aussie dog for almost 1.5 years. I have always had a passion for animals and actually have a degree in Animal Health and Behavior. I had dreams of being a zookeeper but unfortunately had to postpone those due to personal reasons. However, my heart is still in taking care of animals/pets, and I'd love to help you with yours! I am currently unemployed and my husband works a 7-5 Mon-Fri job. Therefore I'm available to pet sit or do walks on the weekdays! Late morning-afternoon preferred. If needed, I can provide house sitting on weekends. I can drive to your house and walk your dog around the neighborhood. I have my own dog as well, and could even have them play at our apartment complex (lots of outdoor space). Because of my skittish cat, it would be difficult to bring your dogs inside my apartment, but can do so if necessary.
“Catherine was great!! She is communicative and reliable. She was very flexible with coordinating drop-in visits for our two dogs. Will rebook with Catherine next time!”
“Once again Nicole was so wonderful. This is our 2nd time we have used Nicole. We were gone for longer time than usual and I felt so reassured that Nicole was there every day for our kitties. She provided regular updates and pictures. It means a lot to see that our kitties were doing well. I would definitely book with her again in the future.”
About: IVDD experienced dachshund mom with hands on rehab experience, plus years caring for rescue dogs and high energy heelers through walks, training, and overnight sitting with deep compassion. Pet care is a central part of my routine. With a part time job and flexible schedule, I’m able to prioritize walks, enrichment, and one-on-one attention so dogs feel safe, supported, and at home. I provide calm and structured care that closely follow a dog's existing routine. I do use crate training with positive reinforcement when I have to leave the house. I offer IVDD safe handling, walks, interactive play, and will send you 2 updates per day with photos while you're away.
About: I am not a professional but sometimes I believe that’s okay. I’ve had dogs since I can remember. I’ve always had such a big heart when it comes to animals. I worked at a shelter while I was in high school and the hardest for me was not bringin them all to my house. I have two dogs of my own. They’re both older girls and very very laid back and friendly. I think every dog has personality of their own and that’s what is beautiful about dogs. I think taking care of dogs is more than a chore or a job, i think it’s more of passion. In my opinion you have to love dogs to be able to take care of them the way they need. I hope I can be what you’re looking for.
“Jasmine is the absolute best!! She goes above and beyond - even taking in our trash can and bringing in our packages. She is so sweet and cleans up a little as well. She even stays with my pets for at least half an hour every visit and gives them loving. I don't trust anyone more than Jasmine and will keep choosing her as my #1 to watch my pets!”
“Lucy is the BEST of the BEST!! This was our first time having pet sitting for our cat and with negative boarding experiences in the past, we were so nervous at how she would do with being left at home but Lucy did an INCREDIBLE job with Jinx! She has been so comfortable being in her own space and I can see how happy she was when Lucy came to check on her and play with her. She set up a meet and greet before booking to make sure everyone was comfortable and sent some adorable photos with every check in visit which gave us so much peace of mind while out of the country! Lucy is the sweetest and truly, truly treats your pet(s) like her own pack and I absolutely cannot recommend her enough. Thank you, Lucy!!”
About: I have 5 years of cat drop in service experience. When my sister travels, I typically spend the weekend with her cats. I will feed the inside and outside cats, provide water, brush them, play, etc.
“This was our first time using the Rover app and so happy we found Kayla! She is very communicative, friendly, and made us feel comfortable immediately. Our cats seemed so happy by the time we got home :)”
“I hired Kari for two drop in visits. She first came to my house to meet me and my cats, Kari is professional, friendly, detailed, instantly took to my cats, I feel like she is a friend after she left, I felt comfortable leaving my cats in her care. She did an excellent job! Sent me an update and pictures every time she visited. Highly recommend her and will be using her services in the future.”
About: I’ve always had pets in my life, from dogs to cats, and they mean the world to me. With two pups of my own, I know how important it is to provide love, patience, and attentive care.

Whether it’s walks, playtime, or snuggles, I’ll be there to keep them happy and cared for while you’re away.” When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat them just as I would my own. I make sure to follow all routines closely—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications or special instructions. I also give plenty of attention and affection so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. I keep the home environment tidy, respect the client’s space, and provide regular updates with photos and messages for peace of mind. My goal is to ensure both the pets and their owners feel confident and cared for throughout the entire experience.

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.

“Jinna was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and leaving our baby with someone else. Reese seemed to have a blast with her dog Didi and her cat. He was very excited to see her again.

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Maxwell
About: I'm a huge animal lover and was lucky enough to grow up with lots of pets from rodents to dogs to horses. I've walked big (150lb+) dogs, small dogs, and everything in between with no issues. Until I was 15 years old, my dad had my siblings and I convinced he was allergic to cats because he didn't want us asking to get one. Jokes on him that the majority of us are now cat parents. While I've had my menace of a cat (I love her to pieces even though she's turning my hair as gray as hers) for only a few years, I've still been around cats throughout my life and am attuned to their particular brand of affection. I have experience pet-sitting from bunnies to a pack of seven high energy dogs. If you're looking for a non-dog or cat sitter, give me a shot! I'm very determined to give pets the best care possible, and if I'm unsure of any instructions will not hesitate to ask for clarification no matter how menial the task may appear. No animal's needs are too particular or niche for me. Must walk counterclockwise around the block? Easy. Food must be microwaved for 12 seconds, but stop it with one second on the clock? No problem. Got to pretend their medicine is human food that was "accidentally" spilled on the floor and I need to "rush" to pick it up before Fido gets it? Done. My availability leans more towards the morning or evening, but I'm happy to work with you to best fit your care requirements. I do my best to keep my calendar updated, especially for weekends, but if you're wondering if I'm available please don't hesitate to ask! No amount of instructions are too much for me! I once left three hand written pages of notes on how to care for my hamster. I will follow them to the letter, and not hesitate to ask if I have any questions. Ensuring your family member is happy, healthy, and comfortable in their home is my number one priority.
About: Hi! I’m Hope, a dedicated animal lover based in Greenfield, IN 🐾 I’ve had dogs my entire life and have worked with them professionally for the past 6 years. I also spent nearly 2 years working at a dog boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I offer drop-in visits that include feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and quality time with your pet. I’m also happy to include a short walk during visits if time allows or provide dedicated walks as needed. I work full-time during the day, so I’m available for consistent morning and evening visits with the potential for mid day. I prioritize reliability, communication, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m especially comfortable with larger dogs and always aim to treat every pet like my own. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re gone. I’d love to set up a meet & greet to make sure it’s a great fit for you and your pet 🤍 I work full time Monday- Friday 7:30-3:30.

I am used to big dogs so I will have no problem handling those big pups of yours.
About: I have been a regular pet sitter for friends, family, and coworkers since I was a teenager. I have experience with large or small dogs, elderly dogs, cats, and pets that need medication or other accommodations. I have experience with dog-sitting for up to two weeks at a time. This has sometimes included, but is not limited to, administering medication, cleaning up messes inside and outside, walking, feeding, and bathing. Ensuring the safety, health, and happiness of each pet I take care of is my top priority and it is one of my favorite things to do in the world! I do not have the same schedule weekly, so I will constantly update my availability. I only know my availability up to 3 weeks in advance. Unless I have to work very early the next day, I am available for overnights at least 3 days a week (typically). I am unable to have pets at my house because I live with a family member’s dog that does not do well with other animals. Please give me any and all instructions! I will make sure to follow any routine that I can for your pet to be comfortable. I will provide as many updates/photos as requested.
About: I have always had a pet, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and rats. I love animals and realize the difficulty in leaving your animal babies with someone you trust while you are gone.

About: I grew up with pets, and love being around pups! I have done some pet sitting for friends which sparked a desire to care for pets more frequently.

“I found Lorrie on Rover when I needed someone to walk my Emmee after my foot surgery. She did such a wonderful job!! Emmee took to her right away. Lorrie showed such love to my baby. I knew she was safe. I wouldn't hesitate to ask Lorrie to care for my Emmee again! Nancy T. Fishers, IN”

About: I have always helped my parents and papaw when it came to taking care of the animals. It started with my first dogs, Maddy and Wallee. Ever since people have always commented on how big my heart is for our four legged friends!! My everyday job schedule changes every other week! I’m very flexible and wanting to stay active on my days off to help others and their furry companions! I have two young labradors that absolutely love the outdoors and going on walks. They both have lots of energy so this would help my girls durning the warmer times. Any and every animal they come across just have to be their best friend.
About: Aside from caring for my own animals, I have dog and cat sat for friends and family in the past. I'm a huge animal advocate and lover, so much so that I am a vegetarian and have issues with the way animals are treated from slaughter houses, to puppy mills. Animals are truly my best friends and I can't think of anything I would enjoy more than taking care of others and the bonus is getting paid for it. I have had pets since I was small and taking care of animals brings me a lot of joy and comfort in my life and its what I prefer. What better way to make money than by doing what you love most. I enjoy walking daily so bring a special little fur buddy along would be a huge plus. I’m dog sitting full time on most days. Have retired and am now doing what I enjoy the most.

I have over 12 years of experience caring for dogs and have grown up around many different breeds. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely passionate about animals. I believe they are truly precious and deserve to be treated with the same love, care, and compassion I would give my own. I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where pets feel secure and cared for. I follow their routines, respect their individual needs, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, supervision, and affection. I have a large fenced in back yard, as well as a fenced in side yard (the backyard has a pond, if it needs avoided, I can use the side yard)
About: I am not a professional but sometimes I believe that’s okay. I’ve had dogs since I can remember. I’ve always had such a big heart when it comes to animals. I worked at a shelter while I was in high school and the hardest for me was not bringin them all to my house. I have two dogs of my own. They’re both older girls and very very laid back and friendly. I think every dog has personality of their own and that’s what is beautiful about dogs. I think taking care of dogs is more than a chore or a job, i think it’s more of passion. In my opinion you have to love dogs to be able to take care of them the way they need. I hope I can be what you’re looking for.
About: I know it can be nerve racking to find someone you can trust to take care if your pet like you would. That’s why I started pet sitting! I want to provide peace of mind to owners by providing the same routine for your pet and updating you daily. I have experience caring for all types of animals; dogs, cats, chickens and reptiles. All sizes, special diets, oral medications, whatever care your pet’s need! If you have a dog or cat that doesn’t “like” people, I’m your girl! I am a full time student at Ball State which makes my schedule pretty flexible throughout the week and weekend to be able to drop in on your pet. I will care for your home like I would care for mine. I’ll make sure windows and doors are locked before leaving. Ensuring your pet is secure and comfortable! When you return, you’ll never know that I was there. Everything will be as you left it or better!
“Kayla is the best! She continually goes above and beyond and absolutely cares about my puppy. She’s flexible, very easy to communicate with, and sends me better pictures than I can get myself! Highly recommend Kayla”

About: I have 9 years experience of professional dog training. I have 3 shepherds of my own who I use as demo dogs when teaching classes! I work with dogs of all breeds and sizes (always love a challenge:)). I also do a lot of boarding, dog sitting and walking for a lot of my clients and bring my dogs to tag along for a full pack walk! I also do baths, nails, blow drying and brush outs! I currently make my own schedule as I do dog training, grooming and boarding. I am able to attend to every dog immediately and do not need to leave them alone long at all! Sundays are the only days where there will be a 4 hour gap due to church :) I have a fenced and yard with plenty of space to roam and run and I have my 3 shepherds to keep your fur baby company! I also have crates that I can use as well!
“I have nothing but great reviews for Brook. She is kind and communicated with me over the weekend while keeping my little guy. I felt good knowing that I left him in good hands!!”
“Kylie was great! She kept in communication with us and sent pictures of how Dolly was doing. We weren’t worried or stressed and could feel like Dolly was in a safe environment. We will definitely use Kylie again!”
“Brendan was a life saver! He responded to my last minute boarding request for my mastiff at close to midnight the night before the stay started😅 My boy spent two nights with Brendan and his pup. He’s never been away from home before so I was a little nervous but everything seemed to go well. Brendan was very easy to reach and he sent pictures and updates regularly. I would definitely book with Brendan again! Thanks so much!!”
“We dropped our Bonz off on Thursday afternoon and they steadily send us pictures until we got home 3 days later. We messaged a few times to check on him and no response was usually accompanied with a photo. I think he enjoyed his stay. Thank you”
“Easy communication and nice community so I felt safe leaving my senior dog. Super clean environment, felt just like home so I was sure my pup felt at ease. I didn’t have to lug the bulky cage with me, they provided one for her. I brought pee pads since my senior dog has accidents at night and food. We were gone two full nights and part of the last day. She was eager to see me and I could tell she was given plenty of attention during her stay. We rebooked for just a day to give our pup a break during a family function that is upcoming. Great experience, fantastic and communication and some photos to check in. The children are older and I felt they respected my senior pup well!”
“Yelena is simply awesome! Bella had a wonderful time, settled right into her home and back at ours without any issues! We received lots of updates and Bella was treated like part of the pack. We'll book with Yelena for as long as she's offering her services!”
“Jennifer did such an amazing job with our 2 pups! One of them ended up with an ear infection the first day we dropped off and she took such great care of him, even buying him some drops for relief. She was so great at communicating and I could tell she gave them so much love while we were away!”
“Louie was very happy at Sharon’s and even had a play date. He got walked and Sharon went above and beyond with texts, pictures, and videos. We would definitely go back.”
“Mae and I love Mary! She gives me updates and sends lots of pictures while I’m away. Mae can be a pretty anxious pup, but she settled right in. Mary learns the ins and outs of each pup that stays with her, and she really works to make them comfortable. I completely trust Mary with my Mae.”
“Candie was awesome! I was so nervous to leave my pups and she made it such an easy experience. She sent me pictures every day, updated me, she made my nerves calm a lot. For sure taking my pups to her again!”
“Destinee watched our dog for a long weekend and did an amazing job! She sent daily updates and photos, and was so thoughtful in slowly introducing him to new dogs since we recently adopted him and weren’t sure how he’d do off leash. He came home happy, tired, and clearly well cared for!”
“Leta and spouse treated my pups like royalty! We got lots of pictures and they were well loved, exercised and entertained. I’d highly recommend and will use them again. They even gave my pups a bath!”
“I had just gotten my four month old golden doodle less than a week before I had to go on a trip that was planned a while back so I didn’t have a lot of information to give Ruby about the puppy when he stayed with her for three days. Ruby was wonderful with him! She was in constant communication and I knew he was in very good hands! I would absolutely recommend Ruby to anyone.”
“Bobbie was AMAZING!! She took such great care of my dog and sent me messages and pictures of my dog while I was away. She really cared for my dog and I can tell he had an amazing time with her. She went above and beyond to make sure that my dog was comforted during his stay with her. I will definitely be bringing my dog back with Bobbie the next time I am away. She is so caring and wants the best for the dogs she sits. Thank you so much Bobbie!”
“Nicole was so sweet and she gave our dog such a nice home away from home while we were out of town. She was very responsive and was willing to work with our schedule which was very helpful! We got pictures of our dog and she looked happy and comfortable. Highly recommend Nicole as she is very friendly and easy to work with!”
“Samantha and her family welcomed Bubba as their own pup! She kept us posted on his behavior and sent picture, which we loved. She has several kiddos and dogs that kept Bubba socialized and he had ongoing play all weekend. We’d definitely recommend Samantha and plan on booking her again in the future!”
