“Katie has been so awesome for our two difficult dogs!! They’re always on their best behavior at her house. She is our designated dog sitter, they love them like a second family! They have always been very communicative and friendly with us and sends the best pictures of our fur babies and their new friends! (Other dogs who are being looked after) they will be our first and only pick as our sitters! We love them!”
“Laurie was absolutely great! She was so good to Odin and welcomed into her home as if he was her own. He adapted well to her family and she kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout his stay. We are so thankful for her!”
“Bethany and her family were amazing! We got pictures daily and it looked like our dogs had an amazing time! Bethany exceeded my expectations making sure my girls were happy and having fun! She gave us regular updates and even made sure they were clean for pickup after playing in the doggy pool! We will definitely be using Bethany again!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for pets of all personalities, ages, and needs. As a proud Pomsky parent myself, I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I provide patient, loving, and dependable care while treating every pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether your pup needs playtime, walks, extra cuddles, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they deserve. I’m also comfortable with senior pets and pets who need a little extra patience and reassurance. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and right at home while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility and allows me to be home throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m also a mom of two girls who are both in school (elementary and middle school), so my daytime schedule is fairly consistent. I occasionally work evenings outside of the home, but I plan my schedule around my pet-sitting commitments and make sure every pet gets the care, attention, and routine they need. Since I have a pup of my own I’m already used to keeping a consistent routine and making time for plenty of exercise, play, and cuddles! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a privacy fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air, playtime, and exercise. I provide a clean, comfortable, and welcoming environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and personality, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care I give my own pup!
“Ann was wonderful! If you're looking for someone who will love your pet like you do, then Ann's your gal. I felt very comfortable leaving Charlie with her and he seemed to enjoyed his time with her. I definitely would rebook with Ann. Best decision ever!! Thanks, Ann!”
“Janice is super friendly and very thorough. We really enjoyed the photos and updates she sent us over the weekend. Janice is good with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Our dog came home happy and we know she was in good hands with Janice and her family! We work forward to working with Janice again soon!”
“My pup Cardi stayed with Whitley for almost a week and she had such a wonderful time with Whitley. Whitley is really quick and responsive to answer any questions and she sent so many pictures and updates of Cardi while in her care. Cardi and Whitley’s dogs got along so well and I would love to bring Cardi over anytime just for a play day! Highly recommended- thank you, Whitley!!”
About: I have over 15 years of hands-on experience with dogs and currently live with four large working dogs, (German Shepherds). I operate a Kennel, where I work with dogs through training and boarding, and I am actively involved in dog sports and AKC and UKC conformation. My experience is primarily with working breeds, including high-drive and energetic dogs, but I have worked with a wide range of temperaments, ages, and personalities. I enjoy getting to know each dog as an individual and adjusting their care accordingly. Some dogs thrive on activity and training, while others need more time to settle in and feel comfortable. Dogs are a significant part of my everyday life, so caring for them is not something I have to fit around my lifestyle. It is simply part of it. I work a hybrid job, so my daytime schedule varies depending on which days I am working from home or in the office. Regardless of my work schedule, my early mornings and evenings are dedicated to the dogs and I spend multiple hours on my property interacting with them. A typical day includes outdoor time, exercise, individual attention, play, training or enrichment, and periods of quiet rest. I use a structured crate-and-rotate routine so that each dog gets intentional time out of their crate rather than simply being left loose for the sake of being "out." This structure allows me to give each dog meaningful one-on-one time while also making sure they have adequate opportunities to rest. I adjust the amount and type of activity based on the individual dog's age, energy level, and personality. I operate a successful dog training and board-and-train business outside of Rover, giving me extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and needs. This includes puppies, seniors, high-drive working dogs, and dogs requiring additional structure or individualized care. My home is located on a fenced property with space for supervised outdoor time and enrichment. Dogs are never left outside unattended, and Rover dogs are kept separate from my personal dogs to maintain a safe and comfortable environment. As a professional dog trainer, I am experienced in canine behavior, safe handling practices, and recognizing changes in a dog’s health or behavior. I keep a canine first aid kit readily available and take a proactive approach to supervision, cleanliness, and emergency preparedness.
“We needed to leave our dog for a week and were very happy with the care and attention he received at Savanah’s house. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. We would definitely recommend Savanah and would happily have our dog stay at her house again!”
About: Ive dog sat for my sisters who both have giant dogs more than I can count and I’ve kept my fathers friends service dog. I love animals and it just feels right I currently work part time so it’s easy to work something out ! All I ask is to ask and let me see what I can do to help! I currently don’t have a dog but I’m looking! My yard isn’t fenced but it it however quite big and if needed I will walk them out there with a leach! My house is big and they are allowed to come inside!
“We are a rescue that was transporting a Foxhound, pulled from a high-skill shelter in SC to our rescue in SE Minnesota. We were unable to secure a volunteer to do overnight boarding for our girl Charlene. I was apprehensive but, I did a search on Rover.com for an overnighter in the Greensburg IN area. Kayla W appeared. I asked the questions, she responded. It was a late drop-off and an early pick-up; no problem, Kayla could and did accommodate us. This woman is top-notch. She is professional, informational and kept us apprise of rescued girl- Charlene. We will definitely be booking with Kayla W again. Thank you for an awesome, first-time experience. Dianne”
“I would definitely recommend Corinne, she was great! She was easy to communicate with, flexible, and sent lots of updates and pictures. She also made sure Nova was well-exercised and comfortable. I came back to a very happy puppy! :)”
About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and have grown up around dogs my whole life. I currently have two dogs at home, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I know every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals whether that’s going on walks, playing, giving attention and cuddles, or just keeping them company. I love all kinds of animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand how stressful it can feel leaving your pet with someone else, so I always try to provide updates and make sure both pets and owners feel comfortable.

Over the summer, I’m living at home with my family, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I work as an RBT, but I only work around 3 hours a day and I’m completely free on weekends, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and lots of attention throughout the day. Because of my flexible schedule, your pets won’t be left alone for long periods of time and will get plenty of care, playtime, and supervision. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a safe, pet-friendly home with my family and have experience caring for animals with different personalities and energy levels. We have two friendly dogs at home, a Labradoodle and a Schnoodle, who get along very well with other animals. Our home also has a large open backyard with a pond, a front yard, and plenty of space for pets to play and explore safely. We also have a crate available if your dog is crate-trained or needs their own quiet space. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, and I will always treat your pet like part of the family. I’m responsible, attentive, and committed to making sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

“We had a great experience with our drop-in visits! Communication was excellent, our dog was well cared for, and we really appreciated the updates and photos. It gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands. We’d absolutely book again.”
“Crystal started taking care of our dog Chloe. She comes in for 30 min. Check ins on the rover app, then checks out through the rover app. She walks her. Gives her love and treats. And reports her pees & doodies. She is great with Chloe and love the flexibility of being able to have her when here when I'm not available.”
About: i have taken care of a variety of cats with diverse ranges in size, personality, and friendly towards both strangers and close relatives. I have trained my own cat, Korin (aka Mufassa) well! To the point he’s comfortable with commands although he does not always obey! 🤣 he’s got a very rogue personality. Korin is over a decade old at this point but still in prime condition and health! I honed my cat caretaker skills over the years with many feline furry friends, and will likely always have one in my life as cats bring a certain balance to life that is hard to otherwise find. Cats tend to be the easiest animal to care for from my experience, as they are the most obvious to read. You know fairly quickly where you stand, with both dogs and cats, and no matter where you stand you can build from that by maintaining constant gas in your JEEP Jesus Enthusiasm Encouragement Peace Long as you operate in the JEEP everything will be exactly what it is meant to be🎶
About: I've owned animals all my life. I currently own one outdoor cat and 4 horses. I recently lost my dog of 13 years to cushings disease. I currently work part time at a horse boarding facility and previously worked for several years as a kennel techician. Traveling for a week every year with my family, I know it's hard to find good quality care for my pets. I'd love to be able to provide that care to the pets of other families. I work part time at a horse boarding facility 4 days a week (Thursday - Sunday). I work 2 shifts each day for 3- 4 hours each and have a 2-3 hour break between my shifts. So, I'm basically home every day. We live in a ranch home with a fenced backyard. I live with my Mom who is a big dog lover and would welcome your dog with open arms.
About: I’ve literally ALWAYS had a cat in my life, so I’m basically part cat. A true cat whisperer. I’m currently a proud cat mom of one. I’ve also lovingly cared for a sick kitty of my own who required daily medications for almost 5 years. Because of that, I’m completely comfortable administering meds & handling specific medical routines with zero stress. I also love traveling myself, so I know exactly how nerve wracking it is to leave your babies behind. Whether your cat is super high energy & wants to play, or they're shy & just need someone patient to give them space, keep the litter box clean & food bowl FULL! I’m here to make sure they feel totally safe, happy, & loved while you’re away.
About: I’ve cared for cats for many years and have experience working with cats in animal shelters. I’m comfortable caring for cats of all ages, from energetic kittens to senior cats, and can administer medications when needed. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level, and I take the time to earn their trust while maintaining their routine. You can expect attentive care, photo updates, and a calm, reliable presence to help your cat feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I stand out for my calm, reliable care and my ability to understand each pet’s personality and needs. I’m attentive to routines, clear on communication, and focused on making every animal feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work 7:30-4 Monday-Friday. I am happy to provide care during the week if the pet is used to going a full work day alone. I can provide full day care on weekends. :) I prefer to care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. I follow their normal routine; feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions so everything stays familiar and stress free. I keep the home tidy, give plenty of attention, and make sure each pet feels safe and relaxed while their family is away.
About: Since about 12 years old my neighborhood friends would hire me to dogs sit while their family went out of town. I’ve always had a huge amount of love for animals so I never had any problem doing so. Fast forward 5 years later my parents began breeding French bulldogs. My siblings and I had a lot of responsibility on our hands are far as feeding them, bathing, keeping them groomed, making sure they’re up to date on shots and etc. I currently work from home so that’s enables me with plenty of free time to walk, play with/take to the park, and feed your lovely animals! In my home my dog is crate trained. I do have a crate for my puppy for if friends come over and are not comfortable with him I can put him away for a few hours. I prefer all animals be crate trained , but only go to the crate if they would like to do so. I do not mind dogs walking around my house. I have a puppy of my own so every morning I get up and take my puppy on a 30 minute walk as well as every evening once I get home from work. I have an animal friendly house so I usually let pups/kittys run around the house as long as they’ve been fed and taken out for a potty break.
About: I've literally love pets all my life taking care of mines and my family pets I just love doing what’s right for me and this is the job for me either if that's towards people or animals I work part time but I will definitely have time to be there for your pets at full cost no if ands or buts about it I have all the time they'll need I live in a quite neighborhod with plenty of open fileds for them to run around and play with me and a nice home for them to have a good time
About: I have years of experience caring for cats of all ages, from playful kittens to senior companions. I’m skilled at administering medications, ensuring their health and comfort, and maintaining clean, stress-free spaces—including perfectly tended litter boxes. My attention to detail and genuine love for cats help me provide personalized care that keeps them happy and relaxed while you’re away.
“Whitley is my go-to petsitter! She genuinely cares for my pets, and they know it too! I don’t want to leave them in anybody else’s care. She has watched my pets for me multiple times and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. 🤗”
About: I do not have a cat of my own, but I have a dog who is friendly to cats. I have a lot of experience with cats from watching my friend’s cat when they go on vacations! I would love to help and be able to watch your cat or cats!

“What a delight! Senator had a wonderful time with Mindy and canine babies. Mindy was so kind and ready to spend time with him. He was exhausted afterward, but….that’s a compliment. Hope to visit again soon.”
“Just phenomenal! I can not recommend Kayla enough. She and her whole family are just wonderful and my Riley Girl LOVED staying with them. I would use them again in a heartbeat. Very accommodating and sweet with my girl!”
About: I have owned and helped take care of my family’s animals since I was around 6 years old. I am a dog mom to a 4 year old golden retriever and she is my world. I would love to do anything that I can to help you and take care of your pet while you are away or just need an extra hand. I can go on walks with them, play with them, feed them, and keep them safe! I can also help bathe them and keep them groomed by brushing them. I am a photographer so I have relatively open availability. If you’re interested in hiring me, please let me know and we can talk about your pet and your expectations for me as a sitter. Looking forward to talking with you and meeting with your pets!! My dog is my entire world so I know exactly how anyone who trusts their pet with anyone else feels. There is so much love and support coming from my side of taking care of them. I talk to them like they are people and give them reassurance when it rains or when they miss you. For stop ins, it’s super easy for me to sit with them for up to an hour, giving them affection and company. For my own dog, we go on walks a lot and do tricks and puzzles to ensure brain exercise during the day. I do not have a fenced in yard yet, but we do walk with a leash around the town as well as use a beeping and vibrating collar to keep pets in our yard.
“So thankful for her quick response to help us in a bind with a few short days' notice. Perfect place and home for our pups to stay one afternoon. Great yard, and our dogs felt instantly comfortable with Whitley and her other pups. Many thanks, Whitley!”
About: I have over 10 years of experience of caring for dogs. I have 2 of my own and they love making new friends! I am a stay at home mom of 2 children so your fur baby will always have someone with them. I have a spacious backyard and a large deck so your pet will have lots of room to roam around safely. Caring for your pet fits perfectly into my life as if they were my own. I am home every single day of the week to provide love and care for your pal Your pet will have a spacious yard to roam around, and a large deck to lounge on (or sunbathe! 😉). Lots of potty breaks, and playtime.
About: I began professionally caring for animals 10 years ago when I got a job at PetSmart as a Pet Care associate! From there, I became a kennel technician at one of the top rated veterinary clinics in Cincinnati, Animal Care Center, and after a year of working there as a kennel technician they trained me to be a veterinary technician. I then had my first son and stayed home with him and had a farm with pigs, chickens, and all kinds of wonderful animals! When I decided to rejoin the work force, of course I went back to what I love most, caring for animals. I worked at two different kennels full time and helped manage one of them. I am able to give medications to pets and I’m comfortable giving insulin shots. If you’re interested in drop-ins for medication only while you’re at work or out, I can do that! I’m available any time, just discuss with me what would work best for you. During overnight stays, I will fill out a report to return to you so you will have complete details of how your pet was while you’re away! I’m also willing to FaceTime and send pictures so you know that your pet is safe and sound. Housemates would be my loving and gentle 5 year old son and my fiancé. I have a small chihuahua myself who is very friendly with all other pets. Since I do have children, any pets staying at my home must be child friendly. I’m always available whenever you need me. I’m a stay at home mom, so I’m very flexible with my schedule. Short notice or planning months in advance? I’m here! I have two children who love pets and give them plenty of friendly attention. I also have a chihuahua who gets along with other dogs but is convinced she’s truly a cat so she doesn’t play much! Pets remain leashed at all times during walks and get walked multiple times a day during pet-sitting.
About: My name is Zack. I have had dogs my entire life. I have owned all different breeds of dogs. From miniature pinscher to pit-bull terriers. I started training my own dogs 20+ years ago. As I have gotten older, it grew with me. I enjoy playing with dogs and training them. I currently have my own dog training business on the side. So while your dog is with me, I will take special care of him/her and your dog will have a lot of fun. I also have 4 dogs of my own that we got from the shelter. Two are lab mixes, 1 is a maltese mix and 1 is an AustralianCattleDog. I also have 2 kids in their teens that help me with training dogs and also help me with dogs I take care of and take for walks. My wife and kids love dogs just as much as I do. Dogs are family in this home, not pets. I'm just glad my kids enjoy it as much as I do because it's a great way to teach my kids while spending quality time with them. My family and I have plenty of time with your pet while they are here for play time, walk time, socializing, lounge time and more. I currently have 4 dogs myself that are dog friendly that ur fur family can play with. I also have crates for dogs if I feel like dogs need a break from eachother. Your pet is treated like family in our home.

About: I've had a lifelong love of animals — caring for them was a responsibility I embraced from childhood and carried into adulthood. Over the years, I've dedicated time to researching training methods and best practices for working with dogs of varying breeds and temperaments. My hands-on experience includes Great Danes, German Shepherds, Cairn Terriers, Pit Bulls, Yorkies, Goldendoodles, and Labrador Retrievers, giving me a well-rounded foundation for understanding different sizes, energy levels, and personalities. I am currently a full-time student, so I have the flexibility to make sure your pets are walked and checked on through the day. I can also be available for overnights in your home or will consider boarding here on a case-by-case basis. I firmly believe that regular exercise is one of the greatest gifts you can give a dog — both for their physical health and their overall disposition. Ensuring every pup gets the activity they need for a calm, content evening is always my top priority. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, attentive, and caring environment.
About: I’ve spent my entire life loving and caring for animals. So much so that I’ve devoted my life to them. For the last 10 years I’ve worked as a registered veterinary technician. I’m able to handle any and all pets and anything your loved one might need. Please note that if you are planning on boarding with me I do have small children and cats, so a meet and greet is non negotiable and must be done before the stay. Please message me with any questions I’m very flexible with days and times. Basically I’m available more times than not since I only work part time away from home. Please feel free to message me with any questions on my schedule! In my house everyone is treated like family, lots of love, cuddles, and playtime. But please note, I do have two small children and cats. Due to some serious issues in the past, I do require a meet and greet first. If your pet is known to eat/ destroy blankets or toys please let me know so we can be prepared for their stay.

About: Since having my own pets (cats, dogs, fish) since I was younger, I learned to take care of them and love them unconditionally. I’ve also helped family, friends and neighbors with their pets when in need. I always get excited when an animal/pet is around. I love every animal as my own! I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to play/check in on your pets. I’m available 3 days a week and on weekends. I also have an hour lunch break that I am willing to come by. Happy to come by in the early mornings and late evenings/nights as well. At this point in life, I can only come to your home to check in on your pet, take walks, play, etc! Hoping to be able to bring them to my home/overnight stays soon.
About: I absolutely live for pets to get the care they deserve. After all, our pets are part of our family. I have always had family pets and feel like they are an extension of our family. I work from home and I have a very flexible schedule. If you call...I'm there to take care of your furry friend. It simply takes one phone call for great service. I provide great service to all my clients when ever they need me to go to their home to care for their furry friends. Allow me the possibility to become an extension of your family. Pet care fits my work schedule because I work part time. I can free my schedule anytime. Having a flexible schedule just means I can spend more time with your furry friend and I don't have to be in a rush to get back to work. I have always pampered my pets. They all have a little personality, we just have to take the time to really understand them. Allowing them to be home and comfortable while you are away is the perfect time for you to see.. though the lens of a camera. Enjoy the new video communication!
About: I’ve taken care of family/friends dogs and cats. I’ve been a pet owner for 8+ years so I know how much animals mean to us! I’m saving up to pay for my studies and I currently work part time so the rest of my time can go to caring for your pet. I’m available from 8am-9pm weekdays! I have a fenced yard and a Shih Tzu who loves others pets and will keep your furry loved one company. We go on daily walks.
About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my entire life, and for the last five years I’ve been the “call Lacey, she’ll do it!” pet sitter for family and friends. I’m obsessed with animals, and I take spoiling them very seriously. I love being outside, so your pup will get all the walks, sniff breaks, and adventures their heart desires. Your pets will get cuddles, playtime, and very special treatment every time! I also go by the name “Lu” so if you hear me called that it’s still me! I work full-time as a server, but I still have a flexible schedule and make plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they deserve. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, so feel free to reach out anytime—I’d love to help care for your furry friends! I personally have a fenced in yard and two friendly doggies. One is 8 years old and the other is 2. I can do whatever your pets need!
About: I will genuinely treat your pups like my own! I’ve had pets ever since I can remember - dogs, cats, & even fish. Today, I'm a proud plant & cat mom. Because I love traveling myself, I totally know how stressful it is to leave your babies behind & how important it is to have reliable, trustworthy help you can count on. I love taking dogs on adventures, whether that’s hitting trails to burn off energy or just enjoying a long, sniff filled neighborhood walk. I have experience with all kinds of personalities from high energy pups who want to play non stop, to sweet seniors who just want a slow stroll & some good couch cuddles. I love sending lots of photo updates & making sure your dogs feel safe, happy, & loved! I have a super flexible schedule. My days are open enough that I can easily prioritize structured potty breaks & long walks, without having to rush back to a strict 9-5 desk job. In my home your pet becomes a part of the family! My place is a pet friendly environment where they can fully relax & get cozy. While I don’t have a fence, I have a massive yard with a secure lead, so the dogs can get plenty of space while staying safe. Plus, they’ll get tons of attention & plenty of couch cuddles! If I’m coming to your house for a walk or a drop in, I’ll treat your space with total respect. I’ll strictly follow whatever routine you have for feeding, crating, or locking up. I'm always mindful of the little things like wiping muddy paws if it's rainy & making sure the water bowl is totally fresh before I leave. Plus, you can definitely count on lots of fun photo updates so you know exactly how great they’re doing! Whether your pet is hanging out at my place or I’m visiting yours, making sure they feel safe and comfortable is my biggest priority.
About: I have cared for dogs of all kinds - including puppies, seniors, dogs with medical issues requiring medication or a special diet, dogs with behavioral issues, and more. I treat each pet as if they were my own, because while I am not in a place to have my own pet, pets are family! I have open availability, including overnights at either my place or yours - whatever is best for you and your four-legged companion. I have reliable transportation so I can safely transport your pet in my vehicle if necessary. I live in a very walkable neighborhood with a large park, and take the dogs I care for at my apartment on frequent long walks. I have space to crate them if necessary. I will care for your pet in your home in whichever way is best and most comfortable for you!
About: I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life and started pet sitting for neighbors at 12 years old. I have experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians, and other small pets. I’ve volunteered walking dogs and caring for cats in animal shelters and am comfortable administering medications and caring for both young and senior pets. As a pet owner myself, I understand the importance of dependable care, communication, and maintaining your pet’s routine while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my routine. I work part-time at a café, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule for pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays. Outside of work, I prioritize providing attentive care, exercise, enrichment, and companionship to the pets I care for. I communicate regularly with owners and do my best to maintain each pet’s normal routine while they’re away. My priority is always keeping pets safe, comfortable, and maintaining their normal routine. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and household rules. During visits, I make sure pets have secure access to appropriate areas, fresh water, and plenty of attention. I provide regular photo and video updates so owners can feel confident their pets are receiving excellent care while they are away. I am experienced with a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, reptiles, and amphibians, and I adapt my care to each pet’s individual needs and personality.
About: What sets me apart is that I treat every dog like they're part of my own family. I'm dependable, patient, and attentive to each dog's unique personality and routine. I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, affection, and mental stimulation while following their owner's instructions closely. I also provide regular updates with photos and messages, so owners have peace of mind knowing their pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

I also keep pet owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are safe, comfortable, and happy while they're away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help their pets feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they have fresh food and water, take them on walks or let them out for bathroom breaks, provide playtime and affection, and give any medications according to the owner's instructions if needed. I also keep the home clean by picking up after pets, cleaning food and water bowls, and respecting the client's space. Throughout the stay, I send regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and energy levels. From fun-filled walks and playtime to administering medications and providing attentive senior care, I tailor my approach to each dog’s unique needs. I’m also skilled in basic training and maintaining a clean, safe, and comfortable environment. My passion for keeping dogs happy and healthy ensures they feel loved and cared for while you’re away. Daily Routine: 1. Morning Care: • Start the day with a morning potty break for Tootsie, followed by her breakfast. Puppies often have high energy in the morning, so I set aside 15-20 minutes for a walk or playtime to help her burn off energy. • This ensures she’s settled while I begin my workday. 2. Midday Break: • Working from home allows me to schedule a midday potty break and a short walk. This keeps Tootsie active and gives me a mental break from work. 3. Afternoon Engagement: • I incorporate short play sessions between tasks to provide Toots with mental stimulation, whether it’s a game of fetch, tug, or a puzzle toy. • These breaks are timed to coincide with natural pauses in my workflow, helping me stay refreshed and productive. 4. Evening Care: • I dedicate time for a longer walk or play session to meet her exercise needs. • Dinner and another potty break follow, ensuring she’s relaxed for the evening. 5. Winding Down: • We end the day with cuddle time and one last potty break before bed, maintaining her routine and comfort. Weekly Routine: • Training Sessions: I include short, 5-10 minute training sessions daily to reinforce good behaviors and teach new commands. • Socialization: On weekends, I take my dog to a park or pet-friendly area to expose her to new environments, people, and other dogs. • Grooming and Maintenance: Weekly brushing keeps her long coat healthy, and I check her nails and ears regularly to prevent any issues. • House Cleaning: I allocate time to clean her bedding, toys, and the areas where she spends time to maintain hygiene. Working from home makes it easier to integrate these tasks naturally into my day. It ensures Tootsie’s needs are met while allowing me to balance work responsibilities effectively. When caring for pets in either my own home or a client's home, I prioritize safety by ensuring a secure environment, following their specific care instructions diligently, closely monitoring their behavior, and always keeping their well-being at the forefront, including providing proper food, water, exercise, and access to designated bathroom areas, while fostering a trusting relationship through consistent routines and gentle interactions. Key aspects of pet care, depending on the service offered: Basic Needs: Feeding: Providing the correct amount of their prescribed food at scheduled times, ensuring fresh water is always available. Waste Management: Regularly cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs outside for bathroom breaks, and proper disposal of waste. Exercise: Engaging in appropriate physical activity based on the pet's breed and needs, such as walks, playtime, or interactive toys. Safety Measures: Secure Environment: Checking for potential hazards like open doors, toxic substances, and securing areas that could be dangerous for the pet. Leash Supervision: Always using a leash when walking dogs outdoors in public areas. Medication Administration: Following strict instructions for administering any prescribed medications. Trust Building: Positive Reinforcement: Using positive training techniques and rewards to build a positive relationship. Gentle Handling: Respecting the pet's boundaries and comfort level, avoiding forceful actions. Communication: Maintaining open communication with the client regarding any concerns or changes in the pet's behavior.
About: Since about 12 years old my neighborhood friends would hire me to dogs sit while their family went out of town. I’ve always had a huge amount of love for animals so I never had any problem doing so. Fast forward 5 years later my parents began breeding French bulldogs. My siblings and I had a lot of responsibility on our hands are far as feeding them, bathing, keeping them groomed, making sure they’re up to date on shots and etc. I currently work from home so that’s enables me with plenty of free time to walk, play with/take to the park, and feed your lovely animals! In my home my dog is crate trained. I do have a crate for my puppy for if friends come over and are not comfortable with him I can put him away for a few hours. I prefer all animals be crate trained , but only go to the crate if they would like to do so. I do not mind dogs walking around my house. I have a puppy of my own so every morning I get up and take my puppy on a 30 minute walk as well as every evening once I get home from work. I have an animal friendly house so I usually let pups/kittys run around the house as long as they’ve been fed and taken out for a potty break.
About: Hi! I have one dog, she gets along with dogs and cats. I have watched my aunts dogs multiple times. I would be more than happy to watch yours. I love animals. I am very good with them! I work as a PCA, but it is early morning shifts. I will be able to let the dogs go to the bathroom while I go to work. I don’t work everyday since I am in college. I don’t work any weekends at my job so I’m able to be with a dog on the weekends. I am always home with my dog, so she is never alone. When I’m at work my sister is here and she is able to help with the pets. I have a fenced in backyard, so your dog can run around and play with mine. I also have a pool in my backyard, if your dog likes to swim! I let my dog sleep with me so she isn’t alone. I will always be with your dog and mine so that i can give them the best care that they can get!

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for pets of all personalities, ages, and needs. As a proud Pomsky parent myself, I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I provide patient, loving, and dependable care while treating every pet like they’re part of my own family. Whether your pup needs playtime, walks, extra cuddles, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they deserve. I’m also comfortable with senior pets and pets who need a little extra patience and reassurance. My goal is simple: to make your pet feel safe, loved, and right at home while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility and allows me to be home throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m also a mom of two girls who are both in school (elementary and middle school), so my daytime schedule is fairly consistent. I occasionally work evenings outside of the home, but I plan my schedule around my pet-sitting commitments and make sure every pet gets the care, attention, and routine they need. Since I have a pup of my own I’m already used to keeping a consistent routine and making time for plenty of exercise, play, and cuddles! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a privacy fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air, playtime, and exercise. I provide a clean, comfortable, and welcoming environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, routines, and personality, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pets with the same love, patience, and care I give my own pup!
“Janice is super friendly and very thorough. We really enjoyed the photos and updates she sent us over the weekend. Janice is good with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Our dog came home happy and we know she was in good hands with Janice and her family! We work forward to working with Janice again soon!”
“My pup Cardi stayed with Whitley for almost a week and she had such a wonderful time with Whitley. Whitley is really quick and responsive to answer any questions and she sent so many pictures and updates of Cardi while in her care. Cardi and Whitley’s dogs got along so well and I would love to bring Cardi over anytime just for a play day! Highly recommended- thank you, Whitley!!”
About: I have over 15 years of hands-on experience with dogs and currently live with four large working dogs, (German Shepherds). I operate a Kennel, where I work with dogs through training and boarding, and I am actively involved in dog sports and AKC and UKC conformation. My experience is primarily with working breeds, including high-drive and energetic dogs, but I have worked with a wide range of temperaments, ages, and personalities. I enjoy getting to know each dog as an individual and adjusting their care accordingly. Some dogs thrive on activity and training, while others need more time to settle in and feel comfortable. Dogs are a significant part of my everyday life, so caring for them is not something I have to fit around my lifestyle. It is simply part of it. I work a hybrid job, so my daytime schedule varies depending on which days I am working from home or in the office. Regardless of my work schedule, my early mornings and evenings are dedicated to the dogs and I spend multiple hours on my property interacting with them. A typical day includes outdoor time, exercise, individual attention, play, training or enrichment, and periods of quiet rest. I use a structured crate-and-rotate routine so that each dog gets intentional time out of their crate rather than simply being left loose for the sake of being "out." This structure allows me to give each dog meaningful one-on-one time while also making sure they have adequate opportunities to rest. I adjust the amount and type of activity based on the individual dog's age, energy level, and personality. I operate a successful dog training and board-and-train business outside of Rover, giving me extensive experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and needs. This includes puppies, seniors, high-drive working dogs, and dogs requiring additional structure or individualized care. My home is located on a fenced property with space for supervised outdoor time and enrichment. Dogs are never left outside unattended, and Rover dogs are kept separate from my personal dogs to maintain a safe and comfortable environment. As a professional dog trainer, I am experienced in canine behavior, safe handling practices, and recognizing changes in a dog’s health or behavior. I keep a canine first aid kit readily available and take a proactive approach to supervision, cleanliness, and emergency preparedness.

“We are a rescue that was transporting a Foxhound, pulled from a high-skill shelter in SC to our rescue in SE Minnesota. We were unable to secure a volunteer to do overnight boarding for our girl Charlene. I was apprehensive but, I did a search on Rover.com for an overnighter in the Greensburg IN area. Kayla W appeared. I asked the questions, she responded. It was a late drop-off and an early pick-up; no problem, Kayla could and did accommodate us. This woman is top-notch. She is professional, informational and kept us apprise of rescued girl- Charlene. We will definitely be booking with Kayla W again. Thank you for an awesome, first-time experience. Dianne”
