“Indy and Lex loved staying with Gerard! They were very comfortable with him and settled into their routine without issues. He was reliable, easy to communicate with, and treated them like his own! Highly recommend!”
“Our dog Zeus ran up to Steve like they were long lost friends. We were worried as we only rescued him a couple weeks ago that he met not acclimate very easily and were very excited to see Steve build such a relationship with him off the get go. Zeus came back home happy, healthy, and excited after staying with Steve and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible sitter for their beloved pets. Steve was extremely kind, professional and personable and let us know how Zeus was doing at the house. Thank you and we'll be sure to book with you anytime we need a sitter!”
“Aurora was very sweet and caring for my Luna, she took Luna in at a very short notice, and was even able to drop her off early ahead of her drop off time which helped me tremendously since I was in the process of moving. Luna was groomed and I received updated pictures of Luna. I would definitely book again in the future!”
About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of pets since I was a young girls. I’ve been a reliable pet sitter for family and friends for many years. I have four pets of my own, two cats and two dogs. I understand the trust that it takes to have someone watch your pet, and I will make it my priority to treat your pet like family. I am a full time student with a very flexible schedule. I have a lot of free time both on weekdays and weekends to be able to care for your pets! I have a fenced in yard with a pool. I also have two cats and two dogs of my own. I have the perfect environment to board extra animals with plenty of extra space and opportunity for enrichment. I also don’t mind caring for pets in their home because I understand the importance of keeping your pet in an environment that they are comfortable with.
“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!”
“John is a great sitter. His home is clean and comfortable with fresh water always available for my dog. His dog Shaggy is adorable and very sweet tempered and got along great with my Kyda. He has a backyard where dogs can get some exercise and sunshine. He always responded quickly to messages and even sent me a picture of how well my girl was doing. My dog can be shy and doesn't always eat the first night in a new place. I was happy and impressed that she ate her normal meal because John and Shaggy made her feel comfortable. I highly recomend John as a sitter!”
“OMG!! Julie is sooooo amazing! She sent us videos of our fur baby interacting with her grandchildren and other dogs she was caring for. I was so worried having to be away from Sonic for over a week, but Julie turned my worrying into happiness seeing Sonic enjoying himself. Thank you sooo much! Sonic will definitely be back! ❤️”
“Britny, Jeremy, and Remy were the BEST sitters for our pup Jager. They kept in contact, got some of the best pics, and overall were so kind to work with! We will definitely use them in the future so that Remy can visit with the “tiny dog” again 😊🤍”
“Sarah was a great fit for Duke. I had to leave town for a funeral so short notice and she was very accommodating. She kept me updated with how Duke was doing through my trip. I would recommend her for everyone to use.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my dog while I was out of town! Alexis gave me so much peace of mind by sending regular updates, including lots of photos and videos. It was clear my pup was happy, well-cared for, and loved while I was away. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful pet sitter!”
“Riley (the dog) seemed to be happy in pictures that Bethany took. Bethany was easy to deal with and had good communication. Very satisfied with the overall experience. I would use Bethany again.”
“Samantha was fantastic. She took great care of our Irish-doodle, Fitz. She was great about communicating and sending pictures. Her home was very clean and they have a very large fenced in back yard. We will definitely use Samantha again.”
About: I’ve always been around animals! Having cared from a wide variety of animals from a young age I’ve picked up on tons of tips and tricks for training and enrichment! I’m confident in my training abilities, and especially care with disabled/ elderly dogs. Puppies are no challenge either! Any animals are welcome big or small! 🐾 I’m currently working full time, however I get off pretty early in the day and have a ton of wiggle room in my schedule! Weekends are fair game completely! I am incredibly accommodating, so when it comes to pet care in other homes, I 100% prioritize maintaining the current schedules/ routine the animal is used to. I’ll follow specific instructions for playtime, feeding, administering medications, and additional needs. I ensure a clean and happy environment, so cleaning up messes is nothing I’m not used to! On walks I prioritize safety, so the dog will never be off leash and I remain very spatially aware of potential hazards. Walks are where I like to do the most training, so I will also provide a ton of positive reinforcement and patience!
“Another great experience with Gabriel. Barnaby wagged his tail when we first arrived at Gabriel's house so we know he was excited to stay. Gabriel communicated regularly and sent photos each day. He kindly accommodated our last-minute scheduling change. We really appreciate the care and attention Gabriel provides. Absolutely 5 stars.”
“My two senior dogs got excellent care with Monika. I am not sure they wanted to come home! I am using her again next week. Her yard is fenced and she sends pictures and reports which I greatly appreciate. She is the best!!”
“Katia was so awesome and took care of my husky Ethel for 5 days while I was out of town. She came home so happy and exhausted. 10/10 She accommodate us last minute which was super sweet of her.”
“Joe did a great job watching my dog. He was kind enough to meet me at the airport to pick her up, and then drop her off. This saved me a lot of time, and was very convenient. He kept me updated on how she was doing throughout her stay. I’ll use his services again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was about 10 years old, babysitting family and friends dogs along with taking care of my own dogs. I’ve been around them for as long as I can remember! I currently work three 12 hour shifts a week at the hospital, but I am looking to fill my days off with some doggy care! I will care for your dog at your home in the best way that I possibly can! I have a small dog of my own, I treat him as if he’s my child and I will do the same for any and every dog I take care of:)

“Kellsy did an incredible job dropping in to feed our cats while we were on vacation! Our other plan for a family member to watch our cats fell through and we sent a request last minute through Rover. Kellsy responded quickly and was excellent communicating with us all through the process. Her updates each visit gave us peace of mind that our cats were well taken care of so we could enjoy our trip. We highly recommend Kellsy caring for your pets, she's the best!”
“Traci is an amazing dog sitter always sends pictures with funny captions of what happened during her visit! She is very flexible and truly learns your pups behaviors. Makes leaving your fur baby with her less stressful.”
“Ashlyn did I wonderful job of taking care of my cat! Hired her for drop in visits and she did amazing. Very attentive to instructions and great communication. My kitty loved her and I would definitely recommend her/will be using her in the future if I need to!”
“Issabella did a great job stopping in to care for our cat while we were out of town. She even brought a toy with her and the videos of our cat Doug seemed so happy. Grateful for Issabella!”
“Elizabeth is excellent! She is very reliable and professional. She helped me take care of my cat for a month when I traveled internationally. She followed my instructions well and beyond. She offered extra help when unexpected situations happened. I greatly appreciate her help!”
“Mirabella was really great with our dogs! Some of them usually take a while to warm up to others, but seemed to warm up to her quickly. She also sent us pictures which I really loved!”
“I haven’t had to leave my cats for more than a weekend in years so I was a bit nervous! But Declan was fabulous - I loved the daily updates and found that I was looking forward to the pictures every day that I was gone! And on a pet level, Declan managed to befriend my most skeptical cat, and even expand the group of people whose lap she will voluntarily sit on to a whopping three people. So, he definitely passed the vibe check! The other cat at one point attempted to go home with him, lol. Declan was super communicative and definitely made it a lot easier to not worry about the cats, will definitely book him again when needed!”
About: I grew up with at least always one dog in childhood home and was one of the few, if not only, kid on the street that parents and neighbors would ask to not only watch their kids but also take care of their fur (etc.) babies . Cats and dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs, snakes, lizards and birds are all animals at one point or another I have cared for. I also believe every breed and age of dog or cat deserves as much love and care any any other breed or aged pet! I love the outdoors, including days that arnt sunny and bright, and would love to play and entertain your beloved animal while also making sure all their needs are meet. Home with time to share with your family pets! I try to give ample notification if any changes occur. I am usually very responsive to texting, more so when I am caring for someone's beloved pet. If a client would like to keep their pets stress levels lower while they are on their vacation by having me come take care of their pet at their own territory that is great! I will always take time to play, pet, clean up after and or feed your pet if that is the service you require. Dog walks usually wont end unless the animal has relieved itself (individual pet dependent) and they are smiling those big goofy doggo smiles. My previous occupation had me perform security so I understand the importance of people needing to feel safe and secure in letting someone into their home while its unattended. Please feel free to ask me any types of questions and feel confident that none of your information will be shared/copied etc in any way in addition to the sites our background check.
About: Hi! I'm Sami, and I am THRILLED to meet your loved one. ME AS A SITTER: My number one priority while caring for your loved one is their comfort. I believe having patience and allowing your pet to make the first move is important when first establishing a routine or any sort of bond. Anything you or your loved one needs for our time together, I'm there for it all! I have always had a passion for animals and find it an absolute blessing to spend time with any and all. WHAT I CAN DO: I am comfortable with pets of all shapes, sizes, and energy levels. This includes pets that need medication, special dietary restrictions, or even pets that don't like to be too close but need a little company- I'm just happy to meet your pet no matter what they need! MY CAT BACKGROUND: I'm currently taking care of and slowly bonding with a feral calico cat my family rescued from a car hood, and it's already taught me so much about patience and trust with cats that need a lot more than your typical attention. I have been taking care of her for a few months now and can't wait to continue to grow with her. Before this, I housesat for family friends for over a week, during which I cared for their 3 cats and 1 dog, feeding twice a day and making sure they got plenty of playtime throughout the day. This also included me caring for their house and plants, doing general upkeep throughout the week. I also have experience caring for a sweet but playful grey tabby in my home in Indiana. While shared with 5 adults, holiday breaks were spent just me and the cat, which is honestly where my favorite memories of us come from! I have given pets medication many times, including wound care, vet visits, and special feeding instructions. You can see pictures of my grey tabby in his cone after he got fixed (and unfortunately had to be on antibiotics) on my page!
“Emma was amazing! She always updated me on my kittens and even sent me little videos of them playing! Her updates were always detailed and she answered any questions you had during the drop-ins! She even scooped the litter, gave them their meds, and cleaned the few accidents that popped up! At the end of the week, she even took out the used litter, washed the boxes, and replaced the litter! Seriously stellar! I recommend her 100%!”
About: I began volunteering in an animal shelter with both cats and dogs when I was 8. I’ve continued ever since, and have been doing independent drop-in and overnight pet care for friends, family, and my community since I was 12. I prioritize maintaining care routines, animal enrichment, and ensuring that pups and cats and happy and safe. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in to say hello, or an overnight visit, I want to make sure pet parents know their animals are in loving hands. I’m currently a graduate student at Ball State, meaning I have plenty of availability in my schedule! I am consistently available before 12pm, and am also available evenings after 5pm. I will not be able to accommodate pets in my home due to my lease agreement, but I’m so excited to come to your pets!
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since the time I was very little. I just have a passion for animals and they bring me lots of joy! I’m very free since there’s summer. So I’m pretty flexible and free in morning and and evenings. Really anytime, I love going on walks and usually out and about! I have a fenced yard. My house is pretty big, there able to be out and about! I’m able to be flexible and do what you ask for your animal
About: I've been a loving cat owner since 2018, since I found my (currently senior) kitty Olive at 2 weeks old, after she was abandoned by her mother. Thanks to Olive and my experience with her, I am familiar with and comfortable with bottle feeding kittens as well as generally caring for the tiny babies! I am known for being the designated cat sitter when my friends go out of town because I genuinely love to care for cats of all kinds! I have four cats of my own and love them to pieces. Two are seniors, one is age unknown (he was rescued from the street as an adult and the vet was unsure of his age due to already missing teeth and the generally rough life of a stray), and one is 6. She's on the verge of being a senior, way too soon! I am currently living with my mom, and she is able to care for my kitties when I am gone for overnights. Do not worry about them - grandma spoils them more than I do!!

About: I love to make others feel more comfortable about leaving their beloved dog in capable hands while they are away! I work from home so the dogs are not left alone.

I am able to follow a strict routine, give medications and have very flexible drop off and pick up times. My dog is very friendly and I have a fenced in yard for plenty of playtime. I work from home so am here to care for them all day.

“Samantha and her husband did a great job while Becket was at their house today in doggy daycare. She kept us updated with pictures throughout the day and gave us a summary of his day at the end (eating, potty habits, etc) . Our dog loved playing i their big backyard with their dog, Marci. Just what we wanted was a worn out puppy at the end of the day! He enjoyed it so much! We have already booked another date.”

About: Hi furry families! My name is Iris and I’m an animal inspired gal.

About: Although I have more experience with cats, I love all pets in all sizes! I will treat your fur baby exactly the way they are supposed to be treated, like a member of the family. I will make sure your pets are well cared for, loved, and I will try my best to make sure you receive updates along the way because that is what I would like, if it were me. If your buddy needs medicine or special care instructions, I am happy to oblige. I want to make sure your pet feels the least amount of stress possible, because I know how hard it can be when they are away from you. I'm a stay-at-home mom, so I have plenty of time during the week to care for your pet and take them for walks. Boarding can happen any day of the week. I have 2 kitties and a pup at home with an unfenced yard in a safe neighborhood. I will make sure your fur baby is cared for on the schedule you need to keep them on track. I do not have a crate, but if you'd like to provide one, I'm happy to crate your baby as needed. Because I stay at home, I will be picking up my kids from school during school days and would love to be able to bring your buddy with me during that time (if they aren't stressed about it).
“learned about day care day before I needed it and Casey responded quickly and agreed. She was attentive to my dogs individual needs. She kindly pottied them just before pickup, knowing I would be traveling. I would use her again”
“Khalie had an awesome time with Brendan and Duke. She’s always super excited to hang out with them all day. Brendan communicates very well and I always enjoyed getting pictures of Khalie playing with Duke. Highly recommend!”

About: Hello! I have been taking care of family and friends' pets of all ages, including dogs, cats, fish, and rodents since I was in elementary school. I love going on walks outside as well as playing with and loving on all kinds of animals. A friend had a hedgehog and I loved his spiky self! I have had dogs my whole life and currently have four rescued cats, one of whom I nursed from two weeks old after she was abandoned by her mother on the streets. Only two of the cats live with me in my current living situation, but they're all still in my heart! They just live with my partner in another state because I currently live with my mom and she said I could only have two with me. :/ Trust that if it was up to me, I'd have all four! I also live with my mom's 3 dogs, a German Shepherd, a Poodle/Bernese Mountain Dog/Golden Retriever mutt, and a lil 4lb baby that is scared of everything except the giant dogs she thinks she can fight with! Because of the big dogs I live with, I do know that I unfortunately cannot handle walking a large, strong dog that is not leash trained because they will absolutely drag me all the way down the street if they take off running. I won't let go, but they'll take me with them! If you have a low energy/senior larger dog, or have a fenced-in backyard and are okay with us having our active time in the backyard instead of going on walks, we can discuss the situation! If I say no, please do not be hurt or offended. It is for your pet's safety as well as my own! I am currently only working on Rover, so my days are pretty free! I spend most of my days hanging out with my own pets, junk journaling, going thrifting, stalking eBay for vintage clothing and home decor finds, reading nonfiction books, and watching way too many video essays on Youtube! I do not currently have the space to care for a client's pet in my own home (between my mom and I, there are already 3 dogs and 2 cats in one house!). I have years of experience house and pet sitting in others' homes, and always take care of their places even better than my own. If you would like me to grab the mail, check for packages, or do light maintenance housework (separate from your pets' needs) while I stay at your place for an overnight, just let me know and I'd be happy to discuss whether I am able to help!
About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and have hands on experience with puppies, high energy dogs, and caring for multiple dogs at once. I work part time at a dog grooming shop as a bather, I interact with many different dogs. What sets me apart is my patience, attentiveness, and ability to adapt to each dog’s unique personality and routine. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, bathing, basic training reinforcement, and giving dogs plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I genuinely treat every pet like my own and focus on making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits into my schedule as I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible but structured routine. I’m able to balance my job while still making time for pet care during my off days, mornings, evenings, and weekends. I’m reliable with planning ahead so I can make sure each pet gets consistent attention, walks, and care without feeling rushed. Even with a part-time job, I prioritize being fully present and dependable when I’m caring for animals. In my client’s home, I always follow their instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their normal routine. I make sure pets are safe, supervised, and never left unattended for long periods. I keep water fresh, follow feeding schedules, and provide regular walks, playtime, and attention. I’m careful with doors, leashes, and any safety concerns to prevent escapes or accidents. I also respect the home by keeping it clean, organized, and treating it with care, just like I would my own.
About: I have gained the reputation in my neighborhood to be the one to call for any pet needs. I’ve taken care dogs, cats, even chickens and I love every second of it. I am currently a college student and I am taking classes over the summer. I am basically free all the time and I am able to schedule my week around pet care. I have pets at home so I will not be able to bring animals into it. I will care for animals at the clients home, allowing the animal to be comfortable in its own environment.

“Indy and Lex loved staying with Gerard! They were very comfortable with him and settled into their routine without issues. He was reliable, easy to communicate with, and treated them like his own! Highly recommend!”
“Our dog Zeus ran up to Steve like they were long lost friends. We were worried as we only rescued him a couple weeks ago that he met not acclimate very easily and were very excited to see Steve build such a relationship with him off the get go. Zeus came back home happy, healthy, and excited after staying with Steve and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible sitter for their beloved pets. Steve was extremely kind, professional and personable and let us know how Zeus was doing at the house. Thank you and we'll be sure to book with you anytime we need a sitter!”
“Aurora was very sweet and caring for my Luna, she took Luna in at a very short notice, and was even able to drop her off early ahead of her drop off time which helped me tremendously since I was in the process of moving. Luna was groomed and I received updated pictures of Luna. I would definitely book again in the future!”
About: I’ve been taking care of all kinds of pets since I was a young girls. I’ve been a reliable pet sitter for family and friends for many years. I have four pets of my own, two cats and two dogs. I understand the trust that it takes to have someone watch your pet, and I will make it my priority to treat your pet like family. I am a full time student with a very flexible schedule. I have a lot of free time both on weekdays and weekends to be able to care for your pets! I have a fenced in yard with a pool. I also have two cats and two dogs of my own. I have the perfect environment to board extra animals with plenty of extra space and opportunity for enrichment. I also don’t mind caring for pets in their home because I understand the importance of keeping your pet in an environment that they are comfortable with.
“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!”
“John is a great sitter. His home is clean and comfortable with fresh water always available for my dog. His dog Shaggy is adorable and very sweet tempered and got along great with my Kyda. He has a backyard where dogs can get some exercise and sunshine. He always responded quickly to messages and even sent me a picture of how well my girl was doing. My dog can be shy and doesn't always eat the first night in a new place. I was happy and impressed that she ate her normal meal because John and Shaggy made her feel comfortable. I highly recomend John as a sitter!”
“OMG!! Julie is sooooo amazing! She sent us videos of our fur baby interacting with her grandchildren and other dogs she was caring for. I was so worried having to be away from Sonic for over a week, but Julie turned my worrying into happiness seeing Sonic enjoying himself. Thank you sooo much! Sonic will definitely be back! ❤️”
“Britny, Jeremy, and Remy were the BEST sitters for our pup Jager. They kept in contact, got some of the best pics, and overall were so kind to work with! We will definitely use them in the future so that Remy can visit with the “tiny dog” again 😊🤍”
“Sarah was a great fit for Duke. I had to leave town for a funeral so short notice and she was very accommodating. She kept me updated with how Duke was doing through my trip. I would recommend her for everyone to use.”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my dog while I was out of town! Alexis gave me so much peace of mind by sending regular updates, including lots of photos and videos. It was clear my pup was happy, well-cared for, and loved while I was away. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful pet sitter!”
“Riley (the dog) seemed to be happy in pictures that Bethany took. Bethany was easy to deal with and had good communication. Very satisfied with the overall experience. I would use Bethany again.”
“Samantha was fantastic. She took great care of our Irish-doodle, Fitz. She was great about communicating and sending pictures. Her home was very clean and they have a very large fenced in back yard. We will definitely use Samantha again.”
About: I’ve always been around animals! Having cared from a wide variety of animals from a young age I’ve picked up on tons of tips and tricks for training and enrichment! I’m confident in my training abilities, and especially care with disabled/ elderly dogs. Puppies are no challenge either! Any animals are welcome big or small! 🐾 I’m currently working full time, however I get off pretty early in the day and have a ton of wiggle room in my schedule! Weekends are fair game completely! I am incredibly accommodating, so when it comes to pet care in other homes, I 100% prioritize maintaining the current schedules/ routine the animal is used to. I’ll follow specific instructions for playtime, feeding, administering medications, and additional needs. I ensure a clean and happy environment, so cleaning up messes is nothing I’m not used to! On walks I prioritize safety, so the dog will never be off leash and I remain very spatially aware of potential hazards. Walks are where I like to do the most training, so I will also provide a ton of positive reinforcement and patience!
“Kari and Clint let me book last minute after another Rover sitter canceled last minute. Hank did really well during his stay. We received many pictures every day with an update. We will definitely be using Kari and Clint in the future!”
“Kept me up to date on how my dog was doing while we were out of the country for a couple of weeks, and took good care of my senior dog while we were away. Would definitely recommend.”
“Joe did a great job watching my dog. He was kind enough to meet me at the airport to pick her up, and then drop her off. This saved me a lot of time, and was very convenient. He kept me updated on how she was doing throughout her stay. I’ll use his services again!”
About: I grew up around untrained dogs, not afraid of any animal. I had two cats of my own and raised them from kittens so I’m great with cats!! I am nice and patient and have never been one for caging in animals unless it’s to travel to appointments, so your little loved ones will always be free to wander with me. I like to give them freedom to explore. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out. I like to play a lot and encourage activities. I try to put on interactive games and toys are highly encouraged to bring! I do freelance work so if I’m pet sitting your baby will be the number one priority! Open space apartment, I like to be outside a lot so I will spend a majority of time allowing your pet to be free and safe if they’re an outside animal. We have local shops within a mile that allow cats so if you’re open, I can allow your pet to go for outdoor time.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was about 10 years old, babysitting family and friends dogs along with taking care of my own dogs. I’ve been around them for as long as I can remember! I currently work three 12 hour shifts a week at the hospital, but I am looking to fill my days off with some doggy care! I will care for your dog at your home in the best way that I possibly can! I have a small dog of my own, I treat him as if he’s my child and I will do the same for any and every dog I take care of:)
