“Mary Jane took great care of my foster dog Eclipse while I was out of town! I'm so glad she had new doggie friends to play with was able to meet cats. They have a great yard for the dogs to play in, and Eclipse had her very own cozy room to relax during the day and at night. Thank you Mary Jane!”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and I was honestly really uneasy about it. After meeting Rachel, she completely put my mind at ease and made me feel confident that Bleu would be in great hands. I was especially nervous since we were going out of the country and couldn’t just come get him if anything went wrong, but Rachel went above and beyond. She sent multiple updates throughout the day along with lots of photos, which meant so much to me and helped me relax. I’m so happy with her care and attention, and I would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Madison was wonderful and flexible. First, we were able to modify our dates before the trip. Second. We ran into traffic on our way home and Madison was able to watch our dog for extra tune until we got home. We got picture updates and our dog was happy.”
“Mariah was an excellent sitter for our girl Millie. She sent us lots of pictures, and Millie looked so happy and cared for. She got lots of walks and hikes, as well as indoor playtime with doggy games and puzzles. She was also generously flexible with our pickup time. We are extremely satisfied and will definitely be booking with Mariah again!”
“Celsei was amazing!! She sent tons of pictures and videos while we were away. Buddy had other dogs to play with and loads of love from the family. He came home tired and happy!”
“She was amazing there dog aurora is so cute and friendly. My dog had the best time and came home absolutely exhausted will definitely have them as my first choice for all bookings”
“Trista did a great job with our girls as always. She sent photos and daily updates to us so we knew how the girls were doing. She had them all packed up and ready to go for us when we got there. We will definitely continue to use her as our dogs’ sitter.”
About: I love animals so much that I made it my career! As an Animal Sciences graduate with 12 years of experience in Veterinary Medicine, 3 years of fostering rescues, and 5 years of raising farm animals, you can trust that I have seen it all. My expertise includes medical management, basic training for puppies, senior care, and working with shy or high energy puppers. I have experience with a wide variety of breeds and personalities which means your pet will receive the individualized care they deserve. During our time your pet will be treated like a member of the family: walks, time outside in my half acre fenced yard, snuggles on the couch, playing with toys, or maybe a trip to the local dog park and to get a pup cup. I work 15min from home and can create my own schedule. If I have to go into work or leave the house, I have comfy dog beds, toys, and peanut butter Kongs to keep your fur baby cozy and happy until I return. If your pet prefers to be kenneled, I can provide a small or large kennel. Pet cameras are also installed in the house to give you the extra peace of mind that your dog is monitored even when I am away. *I am also available for livestock, pocket pets, avian or exotic animal care. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby 🐾 I'm currently working nearby (15min) in a flexible job where I can create my own schedule/hours. This gives me the ability to go in late, leave at lunch to let pets out/ give mid-day medications, or leave work early. I take most weekends off and occasionally take whole days off during the week as well. Our home is on a quiet gravel road that borders the forest, so your pet can enjoy some tranquility while being entertained by wildlife. I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs to keep your pet company. Both dogs have had years of experience with foster dogs in our home and being around other animals in the veterinary clinic. My daughter also lives in the home and is an animal lover like me. She has grown up learning how to give animals the care and space they need. My daughter shows yearly in 4H Obedience and Agility and would love to play with your pet if they desire a human playmate. While she may be around your pet(s), she will never be left alone or responsible for them. We have cameras in the yard and home to monitor the pets while we are away. Pets can be separated by rooms or kennels on request or if I need to leave for work or an appointment. I can provide kenels from small-large size and/or a private apartment for those that need their own quiet space.
“Ginger loves when she’s able to stay with her friends! As soon as we turn onto their street, she gets super excited and runs right up to the door. I always know she’s having a great time and is safe when she stays at their house. Couldn’t ask for a better place for her to be!”
“Kelsey has a wonderful and kind energy. I truly can’t say enough good things about our experience with her. Spot was immediately made to feel like one of her family and I loved getting updates and photos of him receiving so much attention and love, especially from her daughter his new BFF. My only fear was that Spot was having too much fun and would be sad to leave. We definitely have to plan another trip so Spot can go back to visit his new friends.”
“Super understanding when our elderly boy was just too anxious to be away from us for a night. Debbie’s home is spacious, with lots of yard space for exercise. Their sweet and lovable pup Chesney was ready to greet and befriend both of us upon arrival. With her experience and sensitivity, your pet will be safe and well-cared for in Debbie’s capable hands.”
“Ana was a great host for our dog’s 2 night, 3 day stay!! Very communicative and flexible with our dog’s needs! Her background in fostering dogs definitely shows! Will highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Mrs Susan and Mr Kenny were amazing! I have already booked her for Christmas vacation that we have planned. I never worried about my babies while in her care. We received pics and updates daily and our pups loved their time with Mrs Susan. This is the first time we have ever used a dog sitter that was not family and I hit the jackpot! Thank you Mrs Susan and Mr Kenny.”
“Her service was remarkable. Ruby kept me informed on her daily task, sent picture mail and videos daily, I will use her service again. She welcome Purpose with open arms and made me feel good about leaving my little baby, especially being my first time leaving her with strangers and around other dogs.”

“Cole was put in a situation that could have ended badly for all involved. The neighbors let their dog roam knowing it’s history as an aggressive dog. Cole was quick thinking and handled the situation very well. His communication and quick action saved the day. I can’t say enough about Cole and his professionalism and communication”
About: Hello! My name is Mirte (pronounced meer‑tah), and I’ve been caring for pets professionally for several years now. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and a goofy beagle named Mylo, and I adore them both like family. That same level of love, patience, and attention is what I bring to every cat I care for. Before pursuing social work I originally planned to become a veterinary technician, so my love for animals runs deep. Cats have always held a special place in my heart. Whether your kitty is shy, social, playful, or independent, I connect in a way that feels right for them. 🐈🧶 My schedule is very flexible right now since I’ve just wrapped up my internship, and I offer everything from drop‑ins to overnight stays. I always prefer meeting in person beforehand so you and your cat feel completely at ease. I’d love to connect and support you however I can; your pet’s well‑being truly matters to me.

I spent one year in a vet tech program so i know the basics of animal medicine, 6 months taking care of the marine mammals at Shedd Aquarium, and I also have a bachelor's degree in Zoology. I understand it is hard to leave your pets unattended for hours on end and stressful when you come home to an accident but they can't help it. I want to help alleviate that stress for you and your pet by giving them the best care possible. I can only provide check-ins and walking services. I am looking for some supplemental income to help support my little family. I have a 3 year old and an 8 month old but have recently gotten a full time job in the Bloomington area. I am available during early evening hours and weekends. They are family so they get treated with respect and love and I will treat yours like I treat mine to make sure they are happy and living their best life.

I work after 4 or 2pm so anytime before then I’m available to walk or care for your pet! I follow any rules you have at your home that you request and I will respect them.

I like incorporating play time generously through the day to keep them occupied.

“Celsei took great care of my little buddy Theo last minute when he wasn't feeling well and I didn't want him home alone. She took great care of him and kept me very informed of all of theos activities throughout the day. I will definitely have Celsei be my go-to sitter in the event I need one again! ?”

About: My fiancé and I have cared for dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, from puppies to senior dogs requiring special attention. Our experience includes feeding according to dietary needs, ensuring regular exercise through walks and playtime, administering medications, and maintaining a safe, clean environment. And let’s not forget, all the cuddles your pup will allow! Pet care fits seamlessly into our weekly routine, as both my fiancé, Renas, and I work from home. I work part-time and he works full-time, which means one of us is always home to provide attentive care. Renas shares my love for animals and is always actively involved in caring for the pets we welcome. Our schedules are flexible and fully adaptable to meet your pet’s unique needs. While your pet is in our care, we will follow any schedule/routine that fits your pets needs. We will also ensure proper feeding/watering and any dietary restrictions. Pets will have regular walks and playtime as well as proper physical and mental stimulation such as engaging in games or activities that cater to the pet’s personality and energy level. If games and activities aren’t your pets cup of tea, we can be great couch potatoes and cuddle buddies as well. Maintaining a clean pet environment is a priority ensuring their space is free from hazards. Any basic grooming needs will also be provided. Last but not least, we are happy to keep pet owners updated regularly through messages, pictures, or videos to provide peace of mind. (Pets are allowed on furniture and are welcome to sleep in bed if preferred 😊) Side note- We live in a two story home on a half acre lot that backs up to a wooded area. Our yard is not fenced in so dogs will need to be leashed when going outside. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly with tree lined streets and sidewalks on both sides. There’s also several trails nearby that’s great for dog walking and adventures!
“We cannot recommend Kim enough! Firstly, she was willing to take us last minute and was very accommodating and communicative (with pics!). When we first got there we did a slow introduction with the other dogs there and left after everyone felt confident the dogs would get along. You can tell Kim loves what she does, we felt really comfortable and happy knowing we were leaving Goose in Kim’s capable hands. Goose came back to us tired (in the best way possible) and happy. We already have another appointment with Kim on the books and can’t wait to book with her again. Thanks, Kim! :)”
About: I am a loving trustworthy pet sitter with 10 years experience watching family, friends, and neighbors animals. My experience in training, exercise, play time, boarding, and spoiling set me apart and provide your animals the best care possible while you are away! I watch dogs full time. I am able to devote any range of attention and care that your animal needs. I can come to you or your pet can come to me. I have a loving home with lots of toys to fit your animals needs. I keep the animals inside and prefer to let them be free and comfortable. I have found that using a blanket, shirt, or bed from home usually helps when boarding that they can cuddle with, or I can use a crate if your animal is more comfortable that way. I have the ability to separate animals if your animal requires one on one love :) I do this full time and just started an in home kennel! I can do home visits, doggy daycare, and boarding at any time or day that fits your schedule! I have home on 3 acres out in the country with 2 fenced in areas, along with an outdoor inclosed kennel. I take animals on walks and we love spending time outside when the weather permits! I always keep them on a leash when we’re outside for the safety of the animals.
“Our dogs loved their time at Kelli's! She is very friendly and obviously loves dogs. Kelli provided photos and updates during the day and is really communicative. Her fenced-in back yard provides a great opportunity for the dogs to romp around. Our dogs were worn out from playing and having such a good time! I would definitely love to use Kelli again.”
“Destinee and her family always take amazing care of our little girl Xena and they are always very understanding of my schedule! Xena absolutely LOVES going for daycare and she is always so excited to see them when I drop her off!”
“Kelly really saved me in a pinch and did exactly what I had in mind my for 2 dogs experiencing doggy daycare for the first time! I gave her a brief overview of their personalities and my expectations for the day and she provided an easy, stress-free day for me! She was also flexible with my drop off and pick up times possibly changing and was incredibly kind/understanding about me not being able to give her an idea of drop off/pick up. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: As a retired teacher, I’ve spent my life nurturing, encouraging, and caring for others, and that same patience and dedication extend to every dog I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment where your furry friend can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply a calm companion nearby, I tailor my care to their unique personality and needs. With years of experience building trust and creating positive relationships, you can have peace of mind knowing your beloved pet is receiving plenty of attention, affection, and gentle care. I look forward to treating your dog like one of my own! 🐾❤️ I am available to watch your dog for you if you need a short-term doggy daycare option or someone reliable to care for your furry family member while you’re on vacation for several days. I have a fenced-in yard and two fur babies to keep your fur baby company while you’re away. We will have regular yard playtime and potty breaks, every 2-4 hours during the day. I am also happy to come walk your dog for you if you prefer that.
About: I own a King Charles Cavalier and a German Shepherd currently! I grew up on a farm in southern Indiana with multiple foster and adopted animals! My mother instilled a serious love and adoration for people and their favorite pets. I volunteered at our local animal shelter, was trained in multiple animal science courses, and was taught to love and respect the animals I work with, both domesticated and exotic. I have handled dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, foxes, raccoons, bobcats, farm livestock, petting zoo animals, and more. I love them and have tons of professional experience to give your fur-baby the best experience possible. Please feel free to message or call whenever needed and I am more then happy to accommodate ANYTHING you or your sweet pet needs. I have lots of time on my hands, currently we start our mornings with a good meal and a long walk along our neighborhood. We will head to the house for a quick nap or so that our older dogs and puppies can rest. We then head to either the local state park or a dog park for some new stimulation. When we return home, we have some free time with toys and puzzles, enjoy another good meal, take another long, walk around the neighborhood, and then cuddle on the couch or in the beds until bedtime. I don’t have a fence in yard however, we have multiple leashes here as well as one that you would prefer to use. All of our animals are continuously monitored, I work part-time, and we also have cameras in the house. Feel free to request photos or videos of your baby at any point in time.
“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 ☺️”
About: Hey there! I am Jen. I can’t walk past a dog without saying hi. Love being active outdoors, going for walks, and making new animal friends. Pets bring so much joy, and I’m here to make sure they have just as much fun (and comfort!) while you’re gone- as they do when you’re home. I work from home, with a fenced in yard. I often just keep the back door open, unless it's winter... so they can explore and potty as they wish. I think animals do better with company so we really like the social aspect of this app where animals can be together with each other
“Nichole Is an excellent care taker for Appa! Also, That goes To any other dog too, from how I see how she handles these beautiful good boys/girls! Definitely going to be working with her family more! So genuine!”
“Jasmine was great. I was in town for an event and decided to let my puppy play instead of join me. I contacted Jasmine last minute and she was available! Roxie had a great time and was well cared for. I got several pictures and video up which was great for this nervous mom. Thanks so much!!!”
“Tawny was fantastic! Was able to get me and my friends dog in on short notice! She was great to work with, and I felt very good about leaving my babies with her! Thank you!!!”

About: Hi there! I’m an avid animal lover with a gentle, patient approach to pet care. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and my rescue beagle, Mylo: a lovable goofball who keeps me humble and well‑trained. I always look after every pet with the same attentiveness, patience, and high quality care I give my own little crew. 🐾 Before pursuing social work, I actually planned to become a veterinary technician, and that early passion for animals has stayed with me. I’ve volunteered at the Wabash animal shelter, spent years riding horses, and gained hands‑on experience with all kinds of personalities and needs. Mylo, who struggles with anxiety, has taught me a lot about de‑escalating reactivity and building trust through positive reinforcement. He also takes daily medication, so I’m very comfortable administering meds and following specific care routines. Mylo likes to think of it as his “evening treat with extra steps.” Over the past several years, I’ve pet‑sat for friends, family, and their extended circles. This has allowed me to care for pets of all ages and ranging needs. No matter the temperament, I adapt to each animal’s personality, mood, and boundaries. Striving to create a calm, reassuring environment where your pet feels understood is central to my approach as a caregiver. Please reach out if you have any questions! Your pet's comfort is my priority ❤️ My schedule is currently very open as I wrap up my internship, and I’m available for daily check‑ins, walks, and overnight stays! Please feel free to reach out with any questions, I’m always happy to connect. ❤️🐕🦺🎾 I love caring for pets where they feel safest, their home 🏡🐾. While I’m there, I carefully follow your pet’s routine and keep their space clean and comfortable, so you return to a happy, relaxed fur baby and a home that feels just as you left it (or better).
About: I've never worked for a company like Rover but I've watched many people's pets, mainly friends of the family. My household has two dogs and 3 cats, two of the cats are kittens. I like small dogs but big dogs are my absolute favorite. I personally have a great dane who is a dork and I love him so much. We used to bread great danes so I can work well with puppies. :) I currently work part time, I work most mornings till about 10am and am free after that. I can watch animals on weekend afternoons or evenings. I would like a set schedule with someone if that works out. I have a big back yard and a very loving great dane to keep company. I also have a pin for my dog if for some reason they don't get along. Also a cat poll in my house for those who need cats watched.

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: I’ve had dogs my whole life, currently have an Australian shepherd named Birdie who i love with all my heart. I know how important it is for dogs to be able to get that energy out with a nice walk. Im available basically whenever just need a days notice. I typically prefer mornings most days. But im not opposed to other types of scheduling! Just let me know! Im just available for walks. You can definitely trust me with your dog. I know how important dogs are to a family. My dog is like my child.
About: I've had animals my entire life. Dogs and cats! I take care of humans in the ER, and want to take care of my preferred kind of babies (fur babies) on my days off! I'm an RN! So I am working 3-4 shifts a week which leaves plenty of time to take care of fur babies on my days off! I will take care of my clients fur babies in ways that are preferred by the client! If that's stopping in for play time, snuggles, walks, etc! I can do it all!
About: I own 20+ animals. I own cats, dogs, reptile, fish, and a hamster.I have animals of all ages so whether you’ve got a puppy or a senior kitty I’ve got the experience! Pet care is a part of my everyday routine. I take my dog out every morning and night and feed our kitties every morning. Litter and water are also done every day. I take the upmost care in all of my animals and would do the same with yours. Out pets are our family and deserve to be treated as such
About: Ive had my own Doggy Babies and taken care of doggies for 20 years!! Friends and family have relied on me to walk, bathe, sit overnight and care for their pets. Im currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups!! Ive always loved doggies and love to play and have fun or just sit and chill together!! I have a fenced in yard where our doggies run and play. We have one small guy named Cooper. And one medium girl named Sage. Cooper is Morkie (maltese-yorkie) and LOVES every other animal and humans. Sage is mixed breed and is so gentle and little shy till she gets to know you
About: I started taking care of animals when I was eight. Since then, I have cared for guinea pigs, rabbits, a tarantula, fish, chickens, cows, and of course cats and dogs of various ages. Typically, I will set up a phone call or meet and greet before officially booking. This helps to make sure owners and I are have the same expectations and to meet your adorable pets. I am a full time college student, so my availability is flexible. I am available to check in or stay overnight with your pets. Walking is also something I love to do for exercise or a study break. I currently live in an apartment with a roommate's cat that scares easily with other animals. Therefore, I will only sit in owner homes. I look forward to having a proper place to make a loving dog a home at. When I watch pets in other homes, I like to follow whatever regimen the owner has in place. I have found animals adapt to a new person in their territory when they stick to a routine and are in a familiar place.

“Nora was great with Stevie, and we will definitely be using her services again! She was very communicative, and you can tell she really loves dogs. Stevie had so much fun playing with Scarlet and another pup in her care. Thanks 😊”
“Destinee is amazing. Our high energy dog has stayed with her twice and she's been so great with him! We feel completely comfortable with her and never have to worry about our dog when we are gone.”
“I believe my pups had an awesome time at Kelli’s during the long Thanksgiving weekend. Kelli sent me pictures and kept me updated on their stay which made me feel so comfortable. I didn’t worry much about them because I could tell they were well looked after. Kelli has great price and will definitely use her in the future.”
“This was my first time leaving my dog with someone I didn’t know, and I was honestly really uneasy about it. After meeting Rachel, she completely put my mind at ease and made me feel confident that Bleu would be in great hands. I was especially nervous since we were going out of the country and couldn’t just come get him if anything went wrong, but Rachel went above and beyond. She sent multiple updates throughout the day along with lots of photos, which meant so much to me and helped me relax. I’m so happy with her care and attention, and I would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Madison was wonderful and flexible. First, we were able to modify our dates before the trip. Second. We ran into traffic on our way home and Madison was able to watch our dog for extra tune until we got home. We got picture updates and our dog was happy.”
“Mariah was an excellent sitter for our girl Millie. She sent us lots of pictures, and Millie looked so happy and cared for.

About: I love animals so much that I made it my career! As an Animal Sciences graduate with 12 years of experience in Veterinary Medicine, 3 years of fostering rescues, and 5 years of raising farm animals, you can trust that I have seen it all. My expertise includes medical management, basic training for puppies, senior care, and working with shy or high energy puppers. I have experience with a wide variety of breeds and personalities which means your pet will receive the individualized care they deserve. During our time your pet will be treated like a member of the family: walks, time outside in my half acre fenced yard, snuggles on the couch, playing with toys, or maybe a trip to the local dog park and to get a pup cup. I work 15min from home and can create my own schedule. If I have to go into work or leave the house, I have comfy dog beds, toys, and peanut butter Kongs to keep your fur baby cozy and happy until I return. If your pet prefers to be kenneled, I can provide a small or large kennel. Pet cameras are also installed in the house to give you the extra peace of mind that your dog is monitored even when I am away. *I am also available for livestock, pocket pets, avian or exotic animal care. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby 🐾 I'm currently working nearby (15min) in a flexible job where I can create my own schedule/hours. This gives me the ability to go in late, leave at lunch to let pets out/ give mid-day medications, or leave work early. I take most weekends off and occasionally take whole days off during the week as well. Our home is on a quiet gravel road that borders the forest, so your pet can enjoy some tranquility while being entertained by wildlife. I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs to keep your pet company. Both dogs have had years of experience with foster dogs in our home and being around other animals in the veterinary clinic. My daughter also lives in the home and is an animal lover like me. She has grown up learning how to give animals the care and space they need. My daughter shows yearly in 4H Obedience and Agility and would love to play with your pet if they desire a human playmate. While she may be around your pet(s), she will never be left alone or responsible for them. We have cameras in the yard and home to monitor the pets while we are away. Pets can be separated by rooms or kennels on request or if I need to leave for work or an appointment. I can provide kenels from small-large size and/or a private apartment for those that need their own quiet space.
“Ginger loves when she’s able to stay with her friends! As soon as we turn onto their street, she gets super excited and runs right up to the door. I always know she’s having a great time and is safe when she stays at their house. Couldn’t ask for a better place for her to be!”
“Kelsey has a wonderful and kind energy. I truly can’t say enough good things about our experience with her. Spot was immediately made to feel like one of her family and I loved getting updates and photos of him receiving so much attention and love, especially from her daughter his new BFF. My only fear was that Spot was having too much fun and would be sad to leave. We definitely have to plan another trip so Spot can go back to visit his new friends.”
“Super understanding when our elderly boy was just too anxious to be away from us for a night. Debbie’s home is spacious, with lots of yard space for exercise. Their sweet and lovable pup Chesney was ready to greet and befriend both of us upon arrival. With her experience and sensitivity, your pet will be safe and well-cared for in Debbie’s capable hands.”
“Ana was a great host for our dog’s 2 night, 3 day stay!! Very communicative and flexible with our dog’s needs! Her background in fostering dogs definitely shows! Will highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Mrs Susan and Mr Kenny were amazing! I have already booked her for Christmas vacation that we have planned. I never worried about my babies while in her care. We received pics and updates daily and our pups loved their time with Mrs Susan. This is the first time we have ever used a dog sitter that was not family and I hit the jackpot! Thank you Mrs Susan and Mr Kenny.”
“Her service was remarkable. Ruby kept me informed on her daily task, sent picture mail and videos daily, I will use her service again. She welcome Purpose with open arms and made me feel good about leaving my little baby, especially being my first time leaving her with strangers and around other dogs.”
“Julie and her son took great care of our Sheepadoodle over the New Year’s Holiday. Our pup returned home happy and we are very thankful too have someone that we can trust to care for our dog while out of town.”
“Tracy watched our two puggles for 5 days. She sent pictures updating me on how they were doing. She was very responsive and our boys were well loved and taken care of. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
