Personalized care for your dog or cat - Spurgeon
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Spurgeon
“Bennie went from the car— to Nick immediately— and didn’t even care where I was! Great experience for our first over night stay! Superb communication throughout the whole caretaking, along with many pictures of Bennie! Love the fact he always had someone present during his stay. When picking Bennie up- I got great information on how he ate and interacted with others. Definitely a 5 star boarding experience. Will be giving Nick a call again! 🐕”
“Our dog, Jack, was treated like a part of the family. He was energized and happy when we picked him up. I could tell he missed Lynana's children and her dog. Indy. I feel fortunate to have found her thru Rover. I strongly recommend her.”
“Our pup was so well taken care of! We felt very comfortable knowing she was in good hands while we were out of town. Deb and family looked after our dog as if she was their own. Highly recommend!”
“Our dog Kona absolutely loved her time at Ambers. She had tons of fun playing with her dogs and came back happy and tired. Amber was great at communicating while we were away and sent us pictures of our dog. Would recommend!”
“Raechel was amazing with my dogs. We got daily pics and sometimes twice a day! One of my dogs was on medication and she made sure he got them on time. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“Michelle is amazing, not only a great person and loves dogs, very down to earth, she is very responsive, gives great updates with pictures so you can see how your babies are doing. She has the sweetest little Yorkie for a playmate. She was willing to keep your exercise and feeding routine going to the best of her ability. We absolutely loved her and will be using her services again.”
About: Hi, I am Marlene and I love just 5 Miles from Holiday World, Santa Claus, Indiana. l am self employed as a Senior Caregiver and a Dog Groomer. I have loved all animals my whole life and we have always had dogs in our home. I love all animals and even volunteered at the Louisville Zoo from the age of 13-15. Our animals are part of our family and priority in my life. It would be a privilege to care for your Pup Kids too, where they will receive lots of love, attention, and play time! Whatever your pet needs to be comfortable in my home, I will make sure they have the best experience possible. See me on Facebook under Pup Kids Groom N Board. I am self employed, so I can arrange my schedule to be available to care for your pup! I'm available for boarding hourly, daily and overnights. Short Notice = Less than 5 days will be an additional $20 to rearrange my work schedules. All pet’s safety is my first priority. I have 3 very friendly and social Mini Bernedoodles so vaccination records will be required before booking approval (Rabies, Bordetella, and Distemper). My home is pet friendly and I allow morning zoomies and play in the house as well as pets on our couches. I have a large fenced backyard with a covered deck, as well as a completely fenced 1 acre beyond that. My fenced backyard is dog-friendly, clean and free of anything that could harm your pet. Because each dog is different, please inform me of any specific personalities or needs that I need to be aware of to keep your pat safe and happy.
About: I have had animals ever since I was born. My grandma had a ranch in Wyoming, and I have owned my own pet since I was 8. I am available for boarding on weekends after 3. During the week I work full time, but am available to sit or walk in the evenings. I have a fenced in yard and a golden doodle and retriever. I also have my own crates so if your dog needs kenneled you don’t have to bring your own. I am available for in house sitting as well. I will send a ton of pictures so you know your fur baby is getting taken care of.
“Courtney is wonderful! She took such great care of our pup and definitely put on minds at ease while we were away! I would definitely recommend Courtney for anyone who is needing help with their dogs - she’s amazing!”
“Such a great feeling to be able to travel and know my girl is loved and safe. Amanda and her family are excellent sitters, great communicators, and go the extra mile to reassure you your pet is being well cared for. Highly recommend.”
About: I have taken care of pets since I was young, and always had pets in my home! I am a huge huge animal lover! We currently have 3 dogs, 3 cats, 2 bearded dragons, chickens, ducks and rabbits. We love all animals! I have been a Stay at Home Mom since my girls were born. Now that they are older, I’m looking for new things to do that I enjoy, and can still be around for my family when they need me. I have a fenced in yard that the dogs run and play in, a detached garage with an attachment. Inside the attachment there is a couch, TV, AC, and heat, with plenty of room to run around and play! It makes a nice little hang out spot. We come out here to play and run around at times. There is also a security camera in the attachment as well. Dog must be potty trained, and good with other dogs and cats. Please be honest, so it won’t cause conflict while taking care of your baby and others. If we take care of larger dogs, they will stay in the attachment and not in the house.
“We were first-time users of Rover.com and this was the first time we have left the critters for a vacation…it’s an understatement to say we were nervous!! Alyssa was fantastic with both the pups and with us! Her calm demeanor was so appreciated and she definitely knows her stuff when handling anxious fur babies and their nervous owners…now that we’ve been back a couple of days, I’m pretty sure my female is pouting because she misses Alyssa and her puppies! We will definitely book with Alyssa for future pet-sitting needs and I highly recommend her services for anyone looking for a knowledgeable, loving pet-sitter… she will put your mind at ease and your pups will love her!🐾💙”
“Joshua did a great job! Very personable and seemed to get along well with Lucy. His home was very clean and was set up with a large backyard. Lucy has a difficult time with separation anxiety but he seemed to be able to settle her down pretty quickly. I would definitely use Joshua again!”

About: I bathe the dogs, water/feed, play/go on walk or running, take them outside to use the bathroom after they get done eating there supper. If they need medicine before or after eating there meal, I can do that because I had to do it with my German Shepherd once. Animals give me pride, joy, and make me feel special inside and stress is gone. Animals should be treated like a family member in your home. Currently this is my only income along with uber eats. This fits my schedule between my daughter going to school even then I have a babysitter. I will make sure that fences are shut, doors are shut as well as making sure theres no holes in the fences for them to squeeze through.
“Wow! I couldn't have asked for a better sitter! My cat, Pickle is happy and healthy when we came home.

I WILL ALWAYS USE JENNIFER IN THE FUTURE!”

“Ellie was fantastic with my kitty. All visits were done timely and well. She’s a great caregiver and my kitty liked her. She sent photos and videos each visit. I’ll re-book Ellie again.”
“Evelyn/Evie did a great job taking care of my 3 cats while I was out of town for 8 days. She even managed to get Gandalf's daily steroid medication down! She sent frequent pictures and videos of them including when Mimi and Gandalf would sit on her lap in the recliner. I highly recommend Evie to pet sit your furry companions.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Spurgeon
“This is our first experience with Doggy day care and I must say Lynana made this experience wonderful! She kept me updated by sending me pictures of Blaze! He seems to really love her family! I will be using her again and again in the future.”
About: Seasoned in dog care, I offer a blend of companionship and responsibility. From tailored walks to playtime, your canine companion's happiness and health are my top priorities. Using positive reinforcement techniques, I foster good behavior, ensuring a well-behaved and happy furry family member. I am a student at USI and have time in between classes to care for pets. During the week my course load varies giving me the opportunity to commit entire days or parts of my day to non academic activities. I have a fenced in yard and 3 playful dogs for your fur baby to play with. I care for my clients home as if it were mine and ensure timely potty breaks and walks for dogs with ample playtime. For cats I make sure they have a fresh litter box and clean water bowls. I strictly follow feeding instructions and dietary guidelines for the animals in my care to ensure the happiest and healthiest pet.
“I will ABSOLUTELY use Debbie for mac's daycare again! I was so nervous to leave my puppy but Debbie sent me messages and pictures, reassuring me. she was excited to go to daycare each morning and worn out when she got home. thank you so much for caring for my sweet puppy.”
About: If we’ve ever been at a social gathering together, I was the girl hanging out in the corner petting the dogs! I love all dogs, but large and extra large ones have a special place in my heart. I’ve been lucky enough to have many dogs throughout my life, but currently have a Saint Bernard and a Great Pyrenees, both of which I have raised from puppyhood. Having had many big dogs throughout the years, I have become quite familiar with what it takes to give them a good life. I also have experience in many stages of dog life, from puppies to senior dogs, and conditions like arthritis, blindness, and even severe anxiety. I have learned from having my own dogs that it can be really difficult to trust your babies with a stranger. But I want to provide care for your dogs just like I provide for my own- lots of attention, gentle care, and a feeling of safety. And I want to provide YOU with peace of mind, whether it be for your dogs getting a daily walk, check-ins while you’re at work, or overnight stays while you’re out of town. Please reach out to me if you have any questions about my services and I’d be happy to help you come up with a solution that works for you and your pup(s)! I currently work in a freelance fashion so my schedule is typically pretty flexible. I am available most days and times, but this may vary from month-to-month as my work projects evolve. Please reach out to me if you have any questions about certain dates/times! In my home, I have two dogs- a Saint Bernard and a Great Pyrenees, both of which love other dogs! They can often be found snoozing around the house for most of the day, or cuddling with us on the couch in the evenings. If your pup joins us for a night, you can expect us to treat them like one of our own as long as they are comfortable with that! If you prefer your dog be crated or kept separate from my dogs overnight, that is totally fine and I can definitely accommodate that. We have a very large back yard with plenty of space to explore (on-leash as we don’t currently have a fenced-in area). I take my dogs out 3x/day minimum but can take yours out as much as needed per your request. For puppies and some senior dogs, I understand the bathroom frequency is much higher. Because of the nature of my full-time job, I am home most of the time and will likely only accept boarding/daycare when I am planning to be home for the full time. If I should need to leave for a short period of time, your dog would likely be crated or kept separated from my dogs to avoid any potential issues (not that I suspect there would be any, but better safe than sorry!) For dog walking services, I can come to you, or meet you and your pup where you’d like! Depending on what’s available near you, this might look like walking around the neighborhood, or heading to a nearby park for some exercise. If you’re interested in check-ins, I am available to come to you, although price may slightly vary depending on distance from my home. I can provide potty breaks, replenishing of food and water, and just general loving attention for your pup! If there’s any questions you have you don’t see answered here, please reach out!
“Amber was absolutely terrific a really sweet person she took care of my dog very well and I would highly recommend her and would feel very comfortable bringing my dog back to her again”
“Very caring, great with my dog. My dog had a great time with there dogs. I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her after seeing how attentive she was with him as soon as she met him. Would def come back.”
About: I love dogs more than people. I’ve always had a dog as a pet since I was young. You wouldn’t regret having me spend time with your animal. Your dog will feel welcomed and loved they will feel right at home. I love all types of dogs, big, small, old, young even puppies. Best way to contact me is through text message I always have my phone handy with me. If you need my number just ask. I’m available Monday through Friday. I can take last minute appointments if need be. I’m able to work with your schedule if you need anything just message me. I have a very friendly neighborhood, people drive slow just incase I make sure to take the dogs out back. I have one 3 year old goldendoodle and 2 year old Aussie doodle they are extra friendly able to keep you dog company. Plenty of dog toys. I have 2 kids when home from school they love to play with dogs. Any needs you need to met I can meet them for you.
About: I've loved animals all of my life and wish I could rescue every animal in need. Currently my little 9 y/o Yorkie, Ellie May is my whole world, not sure how I'd survive without her so I deeply understand the concern of leaving your babies in someone else's care! My daily schedule is very open and flexible & rates are negotiable. I'm willing to coordinate with you on your needs whether it be for weekdays, weekends and/or holidays. I will always be in tune with your pet's needs and wants and give lots of love and attention so your dog/s will always be safe & happy!
“Yoda LOVED doggy daycare with Raechel! His tail was flying when he realized he got to spend a second day with her and her lovely family - especially sweet doggo Charlie. I will definitely use Raechel again next time I am in Evansville.”
“Marlene was fabulous. She is very close, yet tucked away from Holiday World, so we were able to stay in the park all day long. She sent so many great photos and updated us often, which gave us peace of mind and allowed us to have fun without worrying about our babies. Our dog that is iron clad at home was acting out (and embarrassed me to death), but Marlene took him in stride and made his day fabulous despite the initial hiccup. Our dogs are elderly and we are so grateful for her and her family welcoming our pups for the day 🥰”
About: My fiance and I are lucky to be allowed to sleep in the home that belongs to our dogs by Gus the Goose, Bianca Jane, and our cat Cyrus Been. They live better lives than most humans and people often comment on how well behaved and socialized they are. With that said, they are not that “trained”. They snuggle in bed, lie on the couch and Gus barks at the Amazon man. I am willing to board, day sit and/or walk your furry creature(s). I am available most times and willing to work with your schedule. Obviously overnights will need planning but I can easily pop over for a potty break or for a walk most days. My prices can also be negotiable. I believe I covered most of this, but I’m pretty open. I will cater to your dog as you do. Mine are treated like members of the family, but still as animals. If you want me to treat your animal in any specific way, I will of course oblige. Most of my pics are of just my pets. I often forget to snap a photo while playing but I am more than willing to take pics of your creature all day long if you so desire. But left to my own devices I’ll send around 3 a day while boarding if requested. I have an open schedule. I’m very type A organized, so I generally know well In advance if something may impede my schedule. I can help out any hours of the day or night generally. I don’t have a fence, but I do have a long 40ft lead with nothing to get tangled on. My dog Gus doesn’t require a leash at home but I would never let your dog off leash. I keep a door closure system in place to keep dogs away from the litter box. Toys are out and about to be played with freely in my home. And I may just show up with a new toy or snack for your animal.
About: I am a recent animal science grad from Virginia Tech, pursuing a career in veterinary medicine. My journey in this field began at a young age when I commenced volunteering at an animal shelter, an endeavor that has remained a cherished source of solace and fulfillment. Over the years, I have garnered hands-on experience through roles as a kennel attendant and doggy daycare handler at a veterinary clinic and grooming center. Presently, I am engaged in an internship under the guidance of a seasoned veterinarian. Additionally, I have accumulated four years of experience in house and pet sitting, catering to animals of varying sizes, ranging from 150-pound Cane Corsos to 10-pound Yorkies, and have cared for both arthritic and diabetic seniors in the past. Complementing this professional background, I am also a devoted owner of three dogs. Taking time off before moving and starting a new job. I’m currently free all day to hangout with your fur babies, happy to help make your schedule easier! Whether you have a couch potato or a runner, I’m happy to do it all! I love hanging out with a furry friends and do whatever they like!
About: Hi there! I'm Kels; lover of all things furry, but especially dogs. I've had dogs all my life. Grew up in a home that fostered often. I tried fostering once and she never left. 😆 I have 2 doodles of my own. A 9 year old labradoodle and a 4 year old golden doodle. I've dog sat for friends and family for years in their home, my own, or regular drop ins. I promise to give your dog real attention and affection. My furs are my life and I will treat yours with as much care as I treat mine. I love sharing pictures of your pets while you're away to give you peace of mind and hopefully a few smiles. I know that's something I look forward to when I am away from my pups. I work full time from home with a fairly flexible schedule. I can easily modify my break times for walks, potty breaks, and of course snuggles and playtime. When visiting your home I promise to treat it with respect; valuing your property and privacy. My home offers a fenced in front yard for safe potty breaks, but they will always be monitored when they have access to the yard. For those needing more adventure and space there are 12 acres of grass, trees, and lake to play in. We can discuss placing a GPS fence collar on them if they will have time outside the fenced yard. Safety, fun, and affection are the priorities over here.
About: I love dogs! I’m a full time dog groomer here in Evansville at my in home salon. I love providing dogs with the utmost love and care. I also have safety certifications for first aid for dogs! I work full time at home and will be available all day so your pup will have the most fun and freedom that they could want and need! I live in a 2 bedroom home with a dog of my own that LOVES to play and be around other dogs. Your dog will be in great hands!
About: My family always had dogs and cats growing up, so naturally, I am a pet lover. I have professional experience working with dogs and cats, as well as 3 dogs of my own. I stay at home, so I spend a lot of time caring for my dogs. I am available most hours of the work week, and occasionally on weekends. I keep a close eye on pets and how they are interacting with myself and/or each other. I treat pets like family members, and make sure they are getting adequate care and mental stimulation required for a happy pet.
About: Offering a peace of mind while you are away! I have a huge yard and live in the country with access to a big lake for swimming ! I want all dogs to live their best life, whether it’s a drop-in or a home away from home. I work remote so I am able to provide consistent care. I work a couple of hours/1-2x a week at night. I have a very very flexible schedule and I am rarely out of the house for more than a 3-4 hours. Recently my 13 year old husky lab male passed so it’s just my female 1 year old Golden Retriever (not spayed) who is the most submissive loving pup! We go for walks several times a day , play fetch in our huge yard , and hike 2 miles to our private family lake to enjoy a day in the sun !
About: Now accepting summer boarding, holiday booking, 4th of July coverage and vacation stays! I bring 13 years of professional animal care experience, including roles in general practice, emergency medicine, internal medicine, and lab diagnostics. As a former vet tech, I’m skilled in medication administration, symptom monitoring, and anxiety management. For the past three and a half years, my husband and I have run a private, in home doggie daycare and overnight boarding service. We offer one on one play, a spacious quarter acre fenced yard, and a secure clean cozy indoor space tailored for comfort and enrichment. With no other pets or children in our house, and the luxury of us both having a schedule that allows us to be home full-time, your pup receives our full attention and supervision 24/7 and they’re cared for like family. Doggy daycare and boarding is our full-time focus, and we’re home 24/7 to provide attentive, personalized care. Each day begins at 8:00am with one on one enrichment play in our spacious, fenced backyard. We avoid group play for safety, only allowing interaction between bonded pets. This approach lets us welcome dogs who may not thrive in traditional daycare settings. After morning play, pups rest before and after meals to prevent bloat, then enjoy relaxed indoor time on our cozy futon or human sized dog bed. Outdoor breaks and play continue throughout the day until dinner at 5:00pm, followed by evening rest and a final potty break at 10:00pm. All dogs are monitored via live feed cameras, ensuring constant supervision. Our goal is to make every stay feel like a safe, joyful home away from home. If you require greater than 8 hours of doggy daycare, pricing will go up to reflect the number of hours needed and the level of care we provide as well as your dog or puppy's needs. Your pup will enjoy full access to our home’s main floor, outfitted with baby gates, plush dog beds including a human sized one for large breeds or bonded pairs and sun bathing areas by large windows perfect for lounging. During the day, dogs are never kenneled unless we need to leave the home for a short period of time and can freely explore both indoors and our spacious, fenced backyard filled with squirrels, rabbits and birds to chase. At night, all pups sleep safely in kennels, monitored by a live feed camera system that streams directly to our phones. We welcome dogs of all ages and sizes. Safety and comfort are our top priorities, and we’re happy to answer any questions during your meet and greet.

“Bennie went from the car— to Nick immediately— and didn’t even care where I was! Great experience for our first over night stay! Superb communication throughout the whole caretaking, along with many pictures of Bennie! Love the fact he always had someone present during his stay. When picking Bennie up- I got great information on how he ate and interacted with others. Definitely a 5 star boarding experience. Will be giving Nick a call again! 🐕”

“Our dog Kona absolutely loved her time at Ambers. She had tons of fun playing with her dogs and came back happy and tired. Amber was great at communicating while we were away and sent us pictures of our dog. Would recommend!”

We absolutely loved her and will be using her services again.”

“Such a great feeling to be able to travel and know my girl is loved and safe. Amanda and her family are excellent sitters, great communicators, and go the extra mile to reassure you your pet is being well cared for. Highly recommend.”
“We were first-time users of Rover.com and this was the first time we have left the critters for a vacation…it’s an understatement to say we were nervous!! Alyssa was fantastic with both the pups and with us! Her calm demeanor was so appreciated and she definitely knows her stuff when handling anxious fur babies and their nervous owners…now that we’ve been back a couple of days, I’m pretty sure my female is pouting because she misses Alyssa and her puppies! We will definitely book with Alyssa for future pet-sitting needs and I highly recommend her services for anyone looking for a knowledgeable, loving pet-sitter… she will put your mind at ease and your pups will love her!🐾💙”
“Joshua did a great job! Very personable and seemed to get along well with Lucy. His home was very clean and was set up with a large backyard. Lucy has a difficult time with separation anxiety but he seemed to be able to settle her down pretty quickly. I would definitely use Joshua again!”
