“Crystal went above and beyond for our Teddy! She was very welcoming and we loved getting all the updates and pictures. We highly recommend her caring for any dog!!”
“Mallory was phenomenal watching Mozzie on a last minute booking. Sent pictures and kept us up to date on what he was doing. Taking him out to the dog park and playing with other puppers. Even sent him home with some dog treats :) highly highly recommend. If I come back to Indiana and need a sitter, she’s who I would book every time.”
“Kyungyeon was above and beyond the most incredible sitter for our Copper!! We got so many updates and made sure our boy was happy and comfortable the whole time!!!! We are so thankful!!”
“Bethany was the most welcoming and confident host for our 12 yo poodle mix. Our dog has struggled with anxiety for years, so I was excited to see how accepting he was of being dropped off in a new-to-him environment. Bethany’s energy was perfect for his temperament, and I feel lucky to have found her for future visits. She tended to his needs, and even though he had a couple accidents- due to nerves or aging - she took this in gracious stride. We received photos and updates that made our trip away from him feel seamless. We highly recommend her, and will book with Bethany anytime she is available.”
“Bindi had a great time! It’s obvious that Gabriel cares deeply for his guests. I appreciated the updates and the flexibility on pickup and drop off. I’ll definitely be using his services in the future!”
“Joshua was great from start to finish. He was flexible and accommodating, sent lots of updates, and Luna took to him immediately. We will absolutely rebook with him for future needs and are very happy to have had the chance to work with him!”
“Karen was wonderful with our pups. She is very kind and adaptable. Her home is perfect for dogs, including the beautiful large fenced-in yard with lots of grass (and squirrels and birds for the pups to chase). Would highly recommend!”
“We are so pleased we found Julie! She was so consistent with communicating and sending photos. Our girl had so much fun with her dogs (and even seemed to get along with the cat!). Needless to say, Lady come home exhausted! :)”
“Kailly was so good with our pup! She walked him twice daily and gave him a lot of love and attention. She's also very flexible and communicates/replies very quickly. We'll definitely be using her again!”
“How I know Ellie is an amazing sister for Marshall? Just disassembling his crate tells him he is going and he gets very excited. He and their dog are perfect attitude for each other.”
“Amy did an excellent job caring for our dog, Penny. Penny loved playing and snuggling with Amy and her son. We received great communication and pictures throughout the time Penny was with Amy. We would definitely recommend Amy and will use her in the future.”
“Janay and her family took such great care of our fur baby! I don't think she wanted to come home. I am so grateful we were able to relax on vacation knowing our baby was in good hands. Janey sent plenty of pics and remained in communication our whole stay”
“Clara did a really good job at taking care of my two boys. I could noticeably tell they were both calm and relaxed when I picked them up. I will definitely rebook. Thank you Clara”
“Brendan is always great with our dog! We had to unexpectedly extend our time away and he was very accomodating about the changes and incredibly helpful. Our dog always comes back from Brendan’s very happy and doesn’t want to leave!”
“Yelena immediately started sending pictures and updates on my pooches and continuously sent them throughout their stay. My one dog was having allergy issues affecting his paws and she was able to wipe them down and correct some marking behaviors he was displaying. They seem to get a lot of time outdoors and were able to roam about inside and could choose to go into crates. When my travel plans were delayed, she was quite accommodating and I really appreciate that.”
“Samantha was great! She sent me pictures and updates everyday without my having to ask. Her home was clean and her dog was friendly. I will definitely utilize her services again!!”

“Elissa did a wonderful job caring for my two bunnies, Mila and Lucky. They were well fed and cleaned up after daily! I look forward to continuing to use Elissa in the for all their bun-sitting needs!”
“Another excellent job by Mary! Mary has been our kitty sitter for over 2 years. She is reliable, and always on time. Our cats aren’t the most social but they allow her to pet them and take pictures. We look forward to her daily photos. We highly recommend Mary!”
“Thos was my first time using a dog sitter and Rover. I was nervous. Claire was great a reassuring me, assisting with using Rover to adjust my original request, and sending me pictures to show how she was doing. She reached out regarding issues and worked to get Cinnamon to adjust to her. I appreciated her greatly! Would definitely use River and Claire again.”
“Kathryn was responsive and had no problem with my specific requests! I have a skittish rescue and she made sure to give both pups time and attention and keep them safe and sound while we were out of town. As an anxious pet parent I appreciate it!”
“Elizabeth was amazing she was thorough and left everything looking fabulous. We had an issue with our cat hiding because my husband left a door to the bathroom open and she was thorough and came back and found him in the closet which was completely our fault but she took time out of her schedule to locate Theo sleeping soundly in the closet. We will be using her again and would like to hire her for our next trip in October.”
“Zoe was absolutely incredible. She met with us beforehand to make sure everyone was at ease with the arrangement. She spent plenty of time with our cats at each visit and took plenty of pictures to make sure they got some love and attention. On top of all that, she seemed like a genuine and caring person. We will be happy to use her again in the future and you should too!”
About: Hi! I've been an animal lover my whole life and genuinely enjoy caring for pets. While I have years of experience with dogs, I also love spending time with cats and understand that every cat has a unique personality and routine. Whether your cat is playful and social or prefers a quiet environment, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I'll provide fresh food and water, clean the litter box, give them plenty of attention (or space if they prefer!), and make sure they stay happy and comfortable in their own home. I'm reliable, patient, and will always follow your cat's routine and any special instructions to ensure they're receiving the best possible care. I know how important it is to have peace of mind while you're away, and I'll treat your cat as if they were my own.
“Kasmine was an amazing cat sitter, other than a miscommunication on the first day, she was absolutely amazing, keep the apartment clean and cat cuddled and well taken care of would for sure hire again!”
About: Hello! You should consider me over others because I live on a farm and deal with all sorts of animals. As I previously stated my Uncle called me Elmira from a young age because I loved to take care of his dog…we even shared treats haha. If anything were to go wrong with your pets I would be able to handle the situation no problem. I am flexible especially because I am graduated, so I can do a midday check in! I am willing to be flexible and do what I need to keep your pets happy! I make sure when I am house/pet sitting to spend time with the animal. Even if it means going to your home and watching an episode of tv and just loving on the animal for an hour or so!

I’m also able to take care of other types of pets (Reptiles, amphibians, birds, etc.) if needed. Lots of experience with walking and looking after different animals (Clinical experience in vet hospital, Zookeeper at the Indy Zoo, Volunteered at the Humane Society and Columbian Park zoo) I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes We have a dog and 3 cats of our own that we rescued, but we have owned quite a few dogs at my house in the past. I also have a bearded dragon. While I am home, I am able to give my time to take care of animals and provide attention to them. I want to make sure each pet is given the best care! Although I don’t do drop offs at my own home, I will listen to whatever the owner tells me is needed and make sure their pet is treated with the best care

About: Hello, my name is Hailey! I currently work full-time through the week (Sun-Thurs 10-6) and am looking to make extra cash doing what I love - spending time with dogs! I previously have worked at a dog boarding center in Whitestown, Indiana, making me suitable to take care of your pet, whether it be feeding, exercising, or even medicating them for you while you’re away at work, traveling, whatever the case may be! While I have experience with all kinds of animals, currently I have two large breed dogs, an Australian Shepherd mix who is 6 years old and an Alaskan Malamute who is 7 years old! Both are dog and people friendly, so your dog can have a playmate, or we can arrange your pet to have space to him/herself if necessary! As I have worked for a business that is used to various pets having various needs, I will do my best to accommodate you in any way necessary! I also am used to working with cats (as the dog boarding also has a cat portion as well) so I am more than happy to help your feline friends, too! Hope to see you soon! I have open availability outside of Sun-Thurs 10-6. I work hard to make sure that I am transparent about the time I have to spend with your pets! I have a lot of experience watching other people’s pets, as well as being a lifelong owner of dogs. I love all breeds and ages!

“Veronika was so welcoming and took great care of our pup. She sent me updates and pictures throughout the day and our pup had a blast. Thank you Veronika for all you do.”
“Jinna and Dui kept Nissy for 5 hours today as a way for them to get to know Nissy and vise versa before she stays with them for a week starting this Friday. Jinna sent pictures and a video during the stay to help alleviate my fears (we’ve never left Nissy with anyone but family before). When I picked her up, she was happy and interacting with Jinna’s dog and another dog Jinna was sitting for…which was really a wonderful surprise because Nissy usually just tries to hide from other dogs. Jinna’s house is very clean and pet friendly, she has a great back yard and she is so sweet and gentle, and is obviously very comfortable caring for other people’s pets. I can finally relax and enjoy myself when we can’t take our pup with us knowing she will be loved and well cared for by Jinna!”

I can provide all the care the client would require for their pet either at my house or their house during any time but I prefer at my home.
“Our energetic Doodle could not have been in better hands. My wife often worries about using overcrowded and overstimulating pet daycare. We’re so glad we found Ellie (and her dog Red!). Luna is so happy to go there and we have no doubt she is safe. Bonus that she still comes home tired from all her fun!”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover who has grown up around dogs my entire life. I currently have two Rhodesian Ridgebacks at my family home that each weigh over 120 pounds, so I'm very comfortable handling large, energetic breeds as well as dogs of all sizes. I've always enjoyed spending time with animals, whether that's going on walks, playing outside, or simply giving them plenty of attention and companionship (I love to cuddle with dogs). Growing up, I regularly babysat and cared for my neighbors' dogs whenever they were away, which taught me how important it is to provide dependable, loving care while owners are gone. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I always do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy. Whether you need someone to walk your dog, stop by for drop-in visits, or house sit while you're away, I'll treat your house and pets like they're my own. I'm reliable, communicative, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I'd love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members! Pet care fits easily into my schedule because I work remotely and have a very flexible work routine. I'm available for morning, afternoon, evening walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting, allowing me to provide dependable care whenever it's needed. I always follow each pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. Whether I'm in your home or caring for your pet during a walk or drop-in visit, I'll make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, fresh food and water, and lots of love. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages if you want so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I've been caring for my own family pets for over 10 years and have also provided pet care for friends and family while they travel. I'm comfortable with daily feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, administering simple routines, cleaning up after pets, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I'm able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Pets are rarely left alone for long periods, and I can easily adapt my schedule to meet their routine. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I follow each family's care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special routines. I provide a calm, loving environment with plenty of supervision and positive attention. While my family loves animals and my children enjoy helping with supervised play and affection, I am the adult responsible for all pet care and supervision. I believe in treating every pet like one of our own and keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they can relax while they're away.
About: My furry family has been growing since 2017! Over the years, we’ve rescued, puppy trained, and kitten trained our way to a home filled with three four-legged friends. During COVID, we spent about a year fostering animals through our local shelter. We quickly learned we weren’t the best foster parents because we ended up adopting one of the kittens from our very own litter! There are currently more animals in our home than humans, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. 🐾 My husband and I both work from home, which gives us the flexibility to provide walks, check-ins, and plenty of love and attention whenever your pets need it! I'm currently working full time but I work remotely so have the flexibility to come check on your animals whenever! We are also available most weekends. We have a fenced in yard, so if play time calls, they can go in and out as much as they want! We have plenty of toys and two dogs to keep them company. We also try to go on walks once or twice a day so they will get their steps in if they like to get out of the house!
“Bella had a great time with Christina and her family. She was super flexible and accommodating. The visit went really well and Christina is clearly very experienced with dogs. We really appreciated her letting Bella hang out at her house.”
“We were so grateful that she was able to help us with a last-minute booking. She was kind, welcoming, and took wonderful care of Joy. It gave us peace of mind knowing Joy was in such good hands. We would love to have Joy stay with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“We are very thankful with Gabriel for accepting taking care of our Peanut, and understanding how we feel when we can't be with her, we appreciate the pictures and videos a lot, we see how he cares for her and definitely we recommend him to any pup owners. He is very caring and patient, dachshunds are known for being very particular, he understands her dynamics and kept her calm and happy. We're very fortunate that we found Gabriel. Thanks to Rover too for having people who love what they do and are so caring and professional.”
About: Hi! I’m a stay-at-home mom offering full-time, one-on-one care for your dog in a calm, loving home. I only board one family’s pet at a time, ensuring a peaceful, low-stress environment with truly individualized attention, no overcrowding, no chaos. Because I’m home all day, your pup will never be left alone or feel lonely.

I also hold a degree in Psychology from Florida State University, which gives me a strong understanding of behavior, emotional needs, and patience—helping me create a calm, reassuring environment for every dog. We recently said goodbye to our sweet dog who lived nearly 18 wonderful years. While we aren’t ready to welcome another of our own just yet, we have so much love to give. Caring for other dogs feels like a meaningful way to honor him while giving pet parents peace of mind that their dog is safe, happy, and truly cared for. I am home full-time as a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to provide consistent supervision and companionship throughout the day. I am available for boarding and daycare most weekdays and weekends with flexible drop-off and pick-up times. Because I only accept one family’s pet at a time, early booking is encouraged.

My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving home where your dog feels comfortable, secure, and cared for while you’re away.

My days are filled with walks, playtime, belly rubs, and the occasional game of fetch. Since I work from home, I'm able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. Whether it's an early morning walk, a midday potty break, or an evening adventure around the neighborhood, caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy. Adding another furry friend to the mix just means more wagging tails, more happy walks, and more fun in my week! 🐾😊 I recognize the importance of finding a trustworthy person to care for your pet, because they are truly part of the family. As a lifelong dog owner with over 15 years of customer service experience, I understand the value of reliability, communication, and providing exceptional care. As the proud owner of a Golden Retriever, I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and understand their unique needs. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care, regular walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I believe in keeping pet parents informed and giving them peace of mind, so I am happy to provide regular updates and photos while you're away. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet and provide a safe, caring, and fun experience for your furry family member!
“Emily was great with Lena! She went beyond expectations and my dog loved her. Rover Cards were very informative and it made me feel closer to Lena while I was out of the country. I definitely recommend Emily and I trust her.”
About: Hi! I’m Jenn! I worked for more than 10 years at a local animal hospital as a receptionist and vet assistant. I have more than 20 years experience in the animal care field between volunteering and my career. I have regular pet sitting clients and am looking to expand upon that. I was the proud mama of two fur babies in my adult life and had lots and lots of pets growing up. I offer boarding and daycare in my home and can also do daily visits in yours. I have experience with dogs and cats of every age, size and breed. I have years of experience administering medications, both oral and injectable. I have cared for my own insulin dependent pet and currently care for many of my clients aging and/or ill pets. I would absolutely love to meet your fur baby! I work from home and my schedule is flexible. I do not have any pets of my own and there are no children living here. I am able to do leash walks multiple times a day as well as scheduled feedings and medication administration. I also have an invisible fence around the entire house and can use my collar (so it is the right frequency) for those pets who are already trained. My home also has a video/security system for added safety for all. I treat all my pet sitting fur babies like family! My four-legged guests have free reign of the house, except the upstairs bedrooms, and are welcome to sit with me and cuddle while we watch TV. 🐾
“Kendra! You were amazing. Thank you for your patience on our little hiccup today. And especially thank you for walking Grizzly. I love the pictures and I am grateful for your care of our fur baby! Stacy”
About: Hello, my name is Hailey! I currently work full-time through the week (Sun-Thurs 10-6) and am looking to make extra cash doing what I love - spending time with dogs! I previously have worked at a dog boarding center in Whitestown, Indiana, making me suitable to take care of your pet, whether it be feeding, exercising, or even medicating them for you while you’re away at work, traveling, whatever the case may be! While I have experience with all kinds of animals, currently I have two large breed dogs, an Australian Shepherd mix who is 6 years old and an Alaskan Malamute who is 7 years old! Both are dog and people friendly, so your dog can have a playmate, or we can arrange your pet to have space to him/herself if necessary! As I have worked for a business that is used to various pets having various needs, I will do my best to accommodate you in any way necessary! I also am used to working with cats (as the dog boarding also has a cat portion as well) so I am more than happy to help your feline friends, too! Hope to see you soon! I have open availability outside of Sun-Thurs 10-6. I work hard to make sure that I am transparent about the time I have to spend with your pets! I have a lot of experience watching other people’s pets, as well as being a lifelong owner of dogs. I love all breeds and ages!
About: I’ve been walking dogs for as long as I can remember. I’ve had countless dog sitting jobs and want to further it and continue doing something I love I work Sunday through Wednesday at our local humane society! I have experience with dogs and cats and other types of pets including small animals and large animals. I am very flexible even on the days I work. I have one dog who is extremely with every kind of dog and loves everyone and everything. Accommodations can be made to watch your pets.

“Kyungyeon was above and beyond the most incredible sitter for our Copper!! We got so many updates and made sure our boy was happy and comfortable the whole time!!!! We are so thankful!!”
“Bethany was the most welcoming and confident host for our 12 yo poodle mix. Our dog has struggled with anxiety for years, so I was excited to see how accepting he was of being dropped off in a new-to-him environment. Bethany’s energy was perfect for his temperament, and I feel lucky to have found her for future visits. She tended to his needs, and even though he had a couple accidents- due to nerves or aging - she took this in gracious stride. We received photos and updates that made our trip away from him feel seamless. We highly recommend her, and will book with Bethany anytime she is available.”
“Joshua was great from start to finish. He was flexible and accommodating, sent lots of updates, and Luna took to him immediately. We will absolutely rebook with him for future needs and are very happy to have had the chance to work with him!”
“We are so pleased we found Julie! She was so consistent with communicating and sending photos. Our girl had so much fun with her dogs (and even seemed to get along with the cat!). Needless to say, Lady come home exhausted! :)”
“Kailly was so good with our pup! She walked him twice daily and gave him a lot of love and attention. She's also very flexible and communicates/replies very quickly. We'll definitely be using her again!”
“How I know Ellie is an amazing sister for Marshall? Just disassembling his crate tells him he is going and he gets very excited. He and their dog are perfect attitude for each other.”
“Brendan is always great with our dog! We had to unexpectedly extend our time away and he was very accomodating about the changes and incredibly helpful. Our dog always comes back from Brendan’s very happy and doesn’t want to leave!”
“Yelena immediately started sending pictures and updates on my pooches and continuously sent them throughout their stay. My one dog was having allergy issues affecting his paws and she was able to wipe them down and correct some marking behaviors he was displaying. They seem to get a lot of time outdoors and were able to roam about inside and could choose to go into crates. When my travel plans were delayed, she was quite accommodating and I really appreciate that.”
“I needed someone last minute to watch my dog Hazel for 8 days! I was already super hesitant because I am used to boarding and have never left my dog somewhere for so long. Nancy was quick to respond and set up and meet and greet. I could tell Hazel immediately felt at home. Nancy sent honest updates and lots of pictures. My dog looked like she was having so much fun, I was almost nervous she wouldn’t want to come back home with me! I can tell Nancy and her husband showed lots of care and love to my dog. I am very happy she had such a safe and loving environment to stay in for her long stay. I highly recommend Nancy to anyone, as I will be contacting her for any future stays my dog may need.”
“Our 40 pound Bernie doodle enjoyed nine days with Marietta & Nanette. Their large fencedbackyard and other dogs they were caring for were perfect matches for our 20 month old pet. We received great pictures every day and were assured during the very hot Indiana Summer that our pet had adequate time outside but also was well protected from the heat in their home. We would highly recommend this Rover t and will certainly rebook on our future vacations.”
“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!”
“Diana & Kevin took such good care of our anxious pup, Gus. They sent us updates and were so sweet to him! Highly recommend. We can’t wait to use Diana & Kevin again soon.”
“Candie was so good to our boy, Riley. She made drop-off and pickup easy, she sent daily updates with pictures, and she left us have great peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. 5 stars without hesitation for Candie. Thank you!!!”
