We are very grateful for them and will surely use their services again.”

“Emily is such an amazing dog sitter. She has such a great understanding of behaviors and very confident in her abilities. My dog Elle, is a senior and needed a little extra care and she handled it with such ease. This meant so much to me and my kids when we were out of town, I didn't worry at all. I knew she had it under control and she sure did! She kept our house so nice and even rinsed out our dog bowls for me. I couldn't ask for someone more responsible, trusting, and caring! Absolutely the best at what she does!”
“Jenna always does such a fantastic job with our 2 cats! We have one cat that is a bit wary of new people, but she has done wonderful with getting him to come out of his shell. The boys are always in good spirits when we get home, so we know they have been well cared for!”
“Megan did a really great job taking care of our boys while we were away. She reached out to ask for advice on how to make friends with our shy-boy. We are very grateful. Thank you.”
About: I have been around cats for many years and have begun taking care of them in the past 3. Cats are dignified animals that set their boundaries firmly. Their homes are their safe area and that must be respected. Patience and understanding is what I bring when visiting so that I can perform any housekeeping with minimal disturbance to their mood. It is all at their pace and their openness.
“Courtney was absolutely wonderful with my cat Twan Twan. Before my trip, she even took the time to come by for a meet-and-greet so she could get familiar with my home and get comfortable with Twan Twan. That thoughtful gesture gave me so much confidence before I left. She was incredibly caring and thoughtful during every visit. She made sure he was well taken care of, spent quality time playing with him, and sent detailed updates with photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 6 years. I’ve also worked for a dog daycare/boarding facility where I was trained in Fear Free dog handling. Outside of official pet care experience, I grew up with three family dogs! I work as a barista tuesday-Friday 6am-12pm. My shifts are never longer than 6 hours, so accounting for travel time, I would be gone 7 hours at a time max. At my dog daycare job, I took courses on the “Fear Free” technique. Fear free techniques encompass a considerate approach, gentle handling, positive reinforcement, and creating a calm environment. Listening to the behavior cues of the pet is most important to me.
“Carly took great care of our pup while we were on our trip! We got updates and photos with each visit and our dog was excited to see and play with her each time. Will definitely book again in the future!”
“Susan exceeded our expectations and she took really good care of Zoey. Zoey really loved her, too. She took in our mail and packages. Overall, a great experience and we look forward to using her again. We highly recommend her.”
“Kelly Lea did a phenomenal job caring my two kitties. They were well fed, and kept so happy with playtime and treats. It’s great to be able to enjoy your time away when you know that your fur babies are taken care off by such a caring and wonderful person as Kelly Lea. She kept us updated on their well being with messages and photos. She was on time to every visit even when she needed to adjust one of the visit times. Rest assured we will definitely book Kelly Lea for future needs, what a great experience for all.”

“Another fun filled week for Karley at Destinees getting much needed socialization, attention and playtime. My girl is living her best life as displayed in the wonderful photos I receive after pick up. I’m so thankful she has a nice big yard to run and play in to let out that puppy energy!”
“Pete comes how tired so I know he had a good time. Hey we're able to take Pete with only a days notice which I appreciate...but I usually try to plan ahead. I know Pete enjoys the big yard and lots to explore. And it is always a bonus when he is able to take a nap because he is often too excited to do so. Super easy to work with!”
“Lauren was fantastic with my two pups for doggy day care! She took some really sweet photos, was flexible with drop off and pick up and they were really happy and relaxed with her. 100% recommend!”
“Pete had a good time, got to.play with other dogs in a nice backyard, and Sheila was very easy to work with and easy to schedule a meet n greet with. I'm sure we will be back. I appreciate her willing to take Pete for my odd work hours.”
“Jesica was great contacting us back when we wanted to have a day care visit for Lucky. She was very good playing with Lucky and slowly introducing him to the other dogs staying with her. She kept us informed of how he was doing and sent photos. We will definitely be using her in the future. Great job Jesica!”
“Kamela was fantastic with my puppy! Her and her family accepted my baby as their own and I never had to doubt her safety or well being. Will definitely be using in the future and 100% recommended ☺️”

“Nicole and her family are the best. We have been bringing Pearl here about a year and a half now. She was able to get me booked last minute this weekend. Like, within the hour last minute. We love having a great place to take Pearl and not have to worry about her!!”
“A wondering family that took excellent care of my canine. You can expect lots of walks and updates and they even had fresh toys for my dog when I arrived. I will definitely request their services again when I am in town. Thanks so much!”
“Omg, Ian loves it here and will be coming for many more to come. Mary had informed me that he had found a favorite quiet spot on the bed and was content there and happy. He loves being with other dogs and in her environment.”
“Let me first say, I was a little skeptical about using Jackson. But once I met him, some of those worries washed away. I still worried, but throughout the day Jackson communicated and sent photos and my worries washed away. Jackson is the ultimate professional and Milo was extremely happy and pooped when we picked him up. Finding out Jackson offers other services, and I think we have found our new EVERYTHING. I'm already reaching out for a booking tomorrow.”

“I dropped off Oz, our 6 year old, curious, mischievous and playful Husky-Keeshond, at Laura’s house for daycare and as well a surprise overnight boarding and he loved it!! He was good and tired from playing all day with other dogs and walking in the park and to top it all off the photo updates on the dog’s activities throughout the day were awesome!! My wife and I just wish we had found out about her sooner!! We will definitely consider her our first option the next time we need daycare, boarding or or the next time Oz just needs a day of fun!”
“Sharon was fantastic! Appears my dogs never even missed us! Ideal arrangement for us to have her watch them while we visited with a friend and her husband when passing through Indianapolis on our way to Wisconsin from our home outside Nashville, TN. Thank you Sharon! I highly recommend others use Sharon if wanting a loving home your pets can stay at when not able to accompany you. I have one dog around 60 lbs and other around 20 lbs. both rotten so loving care is what I want when needing an alternate care arrangement. Sharon met our needs! Now back on the highway.”
“Pete had a good time. Tonya is very easy to work with and was accommodating with my weird work schedule. You can tell she likes dogs. I'm sure we will be back in the future.”
About: Hi, I’m Bayley! ✨ I’m a pet lover with a 4 year old Lab and two crazy cats of my own. I also foster dogs through a local lab rescue. (I do not take clients in my home while I foster so if I’m away, this is most likely why!) I have a year of experience working at a dog board & train facility and have also spent time volunteering at animal shelters caring for cats, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities! I look forward to meeting your furry family members. ☺️ I offer drop-in visits for both cats and dogs, as well as dog walking. I recently purchased a home and have a fully fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. I work full time, but I am fully remote. My schedule is pretty flexible, so a quick drop in or walk is no problem! I am home most weekends as well. I will always treat your animal as my own while I care for them. I always have extra leashes, treats, toys, etc. on me so that they never go without. I am happy to provide and do anything for your pets as if they were my own!

About: I’ve been passionate about animals my entire life and bring a deep understanding of dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments to every pet I care for. I have experience with both puppies and adult dogs, and I’m comfortable adapting to a wide range of energy levels, personalities, and behavioral needs including behaviors such as resource guarding. Whether your dog thrives on structure, needs extra patience, or has a more outgoing and playful nature, I take the time to get to know them individually so I can engage with them in the way that suits them best. I understand that every dog and household has its own routines and expectations, and I’m committed to following any specific instructions or precautions to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and also very outgoing, which helps me build trust with dogs while keeping them happy and engaged. I’m also able to administer oral medications if needed and am attentive to any health or behavioral cues. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own—with care, respect, and genuine love. I’m new to the area and currently planning my wedding, which gives me a very flexible schedule to dedicate to pet care. Because I’m not working a traditional 9–5 right now, I’m available during weekdays, evenings, and for overnight stays—making it easy for me to give your pets the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I have experience caring for pets with a wide range of distinct temperaments and understand how important it is to recognize and respect each animal’s unique personality and needs. I’m very mindful of the routines, boundaries, and safety measures that help pets feel secure, and I make it a priority to follow them closely. I treat every home with the same respect and care as I would my own, and I approach each pet as if they were my own as well. My goal is to provide attentive, reliable care while maintaining the natural flow of your home and your pet’s routine—ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away and that you feel comfortable as well.
“Courtney has been absolutely amazing with our dog Bia. She has accommodated last minute requests. Her communication is excellent during scheduling requests and walks. Most importantly Bia loves her! Highly recommend.”
About: I've lived with dogs and cats, big and small, since I was five years old. I have a passion for animals of all sorts and I previously worked as a kennel tech for a veterinary office and worked as a dog groomer for several years before my son was born. I’m currently a stay at home mom to my children. I especially love dogs and cats of all sizes and I love being able to work from home taking care of them and helping pet parents know their pets are safe and loved when they’re with me. I'm open to caring for animals of other species as well! I’m experienced in taking care of many different types of animals with different levels of care, such as senior pets, medically needy pets, puppies and kittens, aggressive/reactive pets, as well as exotics. I took a 4 year long veterinary assisting course and I received my CVA (certified veterinary assistant) license in July 2016! I’m a stay at home mom to my children, so I work from home and have pretty open availability to help whenever I’m needed, including weekdays! When caring for someone else’s pets, my main goal is to make sure your pet is happy, healthy and loved. I strive to follow the directions given and keep your pet in a routine they are familiar with, so please don’t hesitate to ask for special requests! For grooming: I have been a professional groomer for several years, plus animal experience as noted above! Please let me know what haircut you would like, your pets’ temperament with grooming, any special requests or concerns you may have during the groom, I am happy to accommodate. I am familiar with most breed specific haircuts and I’m well versed in many different breeds, so please feel free to let me know exactly what your desired haircut looks like! I have open availability as I am a stay at home mom! I’m usually available most days of the week, but may need a couple days to plan, so please shoot me a message and I’ll be happy to get something scheduled! I care for pets as the owners intend me to. I strive to provide a safe and loving environment whether your pet is in my home or yours. When your pet is in my care, rest assured that I am doing everything in my power to keep them happy and healthy :) My schedule can be quite flexible, so please reach out to me to see if we can make something work! I have pretty open availability most days. My goal is to take care of your pet in the same manner that you typically would, so that you can leave them in my care knowing they are loved, safe and cared for as you intend.
“Taylor took such great care of my pup! She was very communicative, and Trooper seemed to have a great time with her. I’ll definitely be using her for his walks in the future!”
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is the level of personalized care, attention to detail, and genuine love I bring to every pet I care for. I don’t just show up to feed and walk—I take time to understand each animal’s routine, personality, and special needs. Whether it's a shy cat who needs extra patience, a high-energy dog who loves long walks, or a senior pet with medication needs, I adjust my care to make them feel comfortable and loved. Pet care fits beautifully into my retired routine because I now have the time and flexibility to truly dedicate myself to it. Each day, I enjoy starting my morning with a walk or play session with the pets in my care—it keeps me active and gives structure to my day. Throughout the week, I schedule pet visits or overnight stays around my personal commitments, allowing me to be reliable and fully present for both the pets and their owners. Caring for animals brings me joy, purpose, and a sense of companionship, which is a wonderful complement to my retired lifestyle. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or simply offering comfort and company, I enjoy making each pet feel safe and loved while their families are away. Caring for your pet in their own home helps them feel safe, secure, and relaxed while you're away. Here's what I provide to make sure they receive the best care possible: 🐾 Familiar Routine I follow your pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and medications. Keeping things consistent helps reduce stress and keeps your pet happy. 🐾 Individualized Attention Every pet is different, so I adjust my care to meet their unique needs—whether that’s extra playtime, quiet companionship, or special handling for seniors or shy pets. 🐾 Safety & Wellness I monitor your pet’s health and behavior during each visit, and I’ll contact you right away if I notice anything out of the ordinary. Their safety is always my top priority. 🐾 A Clean & Comfortable Space I make sure food and water bowls are clean and full, litter boxes are scooped, and accidents are cleaned up promptly. Your home stays tidy, and your pet stays comfortable. 🐾 Communication & Peace of Mind You’ll receive regular updates with photos and notes so you can feel confident knowing your pet is being well cared for—even when you’re away.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I make sure each pup gets the right mix of exercise, playtime, and affection to keep them happy and healthy while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or sticking to their specific feeding and care routines, I treat every dog like they’re my own. My goal is to provide a safe, loving environment so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands! I am at home full time and manage my business from home. I am available 24/7, 7 days a week for all your needs of care for your pet! I have a large secure privacy fenced in backyard for lots of free run and potty breaks. Your pet will be able to roam free or be crated if that is your typical routine! They are able to go out to potty every 30mins- an hour and playtime is all day! Feeding schedule varies on the pet and the preferences of the owner. We provide lots of fresh treats always! Please let us know of any allergies or things you would rather your pet not consume (treat wise).
About: I have a master's and bachelor's in animal science and plenty of experience with an array of different animal needs, demeanors, and personalities. Taking care of animals is truly what I love to do. Pet care is built into my routine through daily feeding, walks, playtime, and grooming, plus weekly cleaning and health checks. It provides structure to my day and keeps me active, mindful, and consistent. I care for pets by providing regular feeding, exercise, supervision, and enrichment. Although I don’t have a fenced yard, I use a designated area in my apartment where dogs can safely roam, play, and relax, along with scheduled walks and attentive care.
About: Being an energetic and patient person, your pets will thrive in my care, getting loved like they are my own. I have many years of experience w/ dogs & cats, a couple reptiles, and an occasional hamster. Not having any pets of my own, and being an empty nester, I have a very flexible schedule as well. I am now an empty nester, with no pets of my own, so my schedule is very flexible. I can happily provide short- or long-term care for your pets. I will ensure that your pet is loved and kept safe from harm. I can also give your pet a bath if needed, take them on walks and/or runs, give medication and lots of snuggles!
About: Hi! My name is Susannah, and I'm a 24-year-old animal lover living in Indianapolis with my husky and orange cat. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all sizes and personalities. In addition to caring for my own pets every day, I regularly help care for my family's three large dogs and two cats, so I'm comfortable with both dogs and cats, including larger breeds. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, pet sitting, and cat care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring outside, or simply relaxing with company, I'll tailor my care to their individual needs and routine. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide reliable, attentive care. I'm happy to accommodate your pet's routine as much as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medication (if needed and instructed), and lots of attention and affection. Your pet's safety and happiness are my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. I'll make sure they receive plenty of exercise, fresh water, meals on schedule, bathroom breaks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I strive to create a calm, positive environment so your pet feels comfortable and secure while you're away.
About: I have experience with several breeds of dogs and different types of animals. My Macee is a 4 year old Frenchton! I have previous experience with cats and goats. My previous Boston Terrier, Angel (and she was an Angel❤️) unfortunately passed away from cancer in 2025 so I also have some senior/disabled pet care experience. I currently work full-time with children so some dates are limited but I am happy to help when/where I can! My availability is typically every other weekend but I may be able to make an exception where needed. Don't hesitate to ask! I currently do not have a fenced in yard so I am only offering drop in/pet sitting in the pets home at this time.
About: I have had a dog of myself for 10+ years, and he has definitely helped me learn a lot! I’m able to easily form great relationships with any dog I have met (so far), and absolutely adore being around them and caring for them. Thanks to my experience as a dog owner, I know all there is to know of the basics of caring for dogs of all ages. My current job has me working 2-6 Monday through Friday, and 1:15-6 on Wednesdays. Since I don’t work long hours, that leaves me pretty open when it comes to pet care! Since I don’t offer boarding in my own home, I will travel to yours to care for your pet. When housesitting, I tend to hang out in the area where your pet is in the most to keep an eye on them if they need anything, and to keep them company while I’m around (if I can, I also like being on the floor so if they want to come and say hi or get some pets I’m right within their reach)! Also, I may be unfamiliar with the neighborhood, but that won’t discourage me from taking your furry friend on walks if they’re able!
About: I’ve taken care of various dogs, cats, and reptiles my entire life. From a young age I trained, fed, walked, and bathed dogs. I currently have 6 dogs, two turtles, and a bearded dragon. I am extremely familiar and comfortable taking care of elderly dogs/medication management. I also have impaired dog experience- one of my dogs is deaf and blind and an another dog who is fully deaf. I have owned dogs of all kinds and breeds. I have a hybrid nursing job with a lot of flexibility. I also tend to be home and available majority of weekends to dog sit! My day fits around a dogs schedule of getting walks/outdoor time, having enrichment with lick mats or puzzle toys, and having the comfort of someone around nearly 24/7.
About: We’ve had animals since our whole life, me and my partner love to take care of the animals and would love to meet all of your animals and to take care of them, take them on a walk, etc I’m currently working part time, my partner, Taylor is a online college student so we have a lot of time between us to go and take care of the animals whenever it is needed (: When I’m at your home I’d watch them all the times, put on leash everytime we go out or go on a walk, make sure they’re keeping themselves busy

“This was my first time using Rover for my own dogs, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I felt completely at ease leaving my pups with Brook. She sent daily updates with photos, and it was so nice to see how comfortable they were while there. My dogs loved being around her and her family. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Juno was well taken care of at Lauren's! She has a big backyard and such sweet doggos to play with my sweet girl. Lauren updated me daily and responded quickly when I checked in on my baby. I'll definitely count on Lauren again for boarding.”
“Jackson was courteous and responsive and even waived a meet and greet based on our dogs pictures and videos which was greatly appreciated given our tight schedule and distance. Obi looked happy at pickup and we have no concerns. My daughter would’ve loved more pictures of Obi while we were away, but no real complaints here! Thank you!”
“Kamela went above and beyond. She allowed Abbott and me to do a meet and greet to see her family, home, and yard to ensure it was a good fit before booking. She sent frequent updates about how Abbott was doing. This made me feel comfortable leaving home without my baby. I definitely will book again.”
“I had an excellent experience leaving my dog, Waylon, with Keith. Keith was responsive to messages before & during Waylon's stay. I also received a few pictures. I felt confident that Waylon was in good hands while my family was on vacation.”
“Sharon was an amazing pet sitter for our 🐶 . She treated her as if she were her own dog, always making sure she was happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. She kept us updated with photos and videos all the time, which we truly appreciated. You can really see the love and dedication she puts into her work. We highly recommend her!”
“Nicole was wonderful with our new puppy. She sent pictures and videos during our time away from our baby. It was so reassuring to know she was in good hands. We will definitely allow Nicole to sit for us again.”
“Julie was great with Tucker and he had a great stay! She took care of him like he was her own! She sent photos and kept us updated on how things were going. We wouldn’t hesitate to have Julie take care of Tucker again! ?”
“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!”
“Nicole has a great space for pups, and she's very kind and knowledgable about how to care for animals. Fin had a great time with her and her big boy Gus. He must have played so hard because he went right to sleep when I brought him home.”
“Josh and Katie were wonderful pet sitters! They provided individualized care, made sure that my pup felt safe and comfortable, and provided daily updates with photos. I am beyond happy to have found such a wonderful family that I feel safe leaving my pup with. I would highly recommend them to anyone!”
“We are so grateful for Joseph and his family for their care in watching our dog, Jack. On the day we were to drop Jack off to Joseph, Jack had an accident where she required veterinary care. Joseph was still willing to accept Jack and administer antibiotics and pain medication for a week while we were traveling. Joseph sent daily pictures and provided updates so we felt more at ease. Joseph and his entire family show care and love when Jack really needed it. I fully recommend them. Thank you.”
“This was our kitten’s first time staying away from home, and Shelby made it care-free and easy! She kept such a close eye on our kitten, even if the kitten didn’t necessarily want her too, haha! She made Willow feel so comfortable that by the end she was snuggling with Shelby! Looking forward to the next stay!”
“I do not have enough wonderful things to say about Tilmer and his family! He had fantastic communication, and photos everyday with an update! I felt like my pup truly fit into their family and was so well loved over her week stay! Next time I go out of town I won’t have to even think about where my fur baby will stay, Tilmer!!”
“We were blessed to find Victoria and her sweet family to love our two furry girls while we were away for a whole week. Leaving them with someone I did not know was very stressful. She settled my fears by staying in touch daily and sending pictures. When we picked them up, I could completely see the girls had been loved dearly while I was away. I will absolutely call on Victoria if we need a sitter in the future. XOXO”
