“Such a wonderful couple that took such great care of our Kandi! Received pictures and updates of how she was doing! Thank you Tiffany and David….will definitely be using you to take care of our girl again!”
“Fantastic service! Very accommodating to my travel schedule with pick-up & drop-off. Great communication in very timely way including daily updates. Very knowledgeable of dogs, and how she introduced my dog to her two. Even allowed me to meet her pups. I’m in process of booking again, and very grateful for Lisa and her thorough care of Winston!”
“Definitely recommend Madison to watch my pup. She has few other dogs and I was not sure how she would react with other dogs as she likes to play but can sometimes be a handful. Madison was nice enough to meet Nala before I even booked and let her meet her dogs so we could see how they would react. She put my mind at ease by sending videos and pictures during Nalas stay showing me how Nala was getting along with her pups and just having a grand ole time. She has plenty of field for dogs to run around and enjoy/ tire themselves out. Will definitely be trusting her with my pup again and can not recommend her enough.”
“Great communication and so sweet. I wasn’t worried about Jester the entire time I was out of town. He had a blast playing with his new friends! I definitely will be using Elissa again!”
About: I have had a dog in my home for as long as I can remember. I love caring for, playing with, and doing basic training with dogs of all kinds. I'm comfortable and confident to care for my own as well as other's. I'm happy to walk, play with outdoors, bathe, do basic training, and administer medication if needed. I currently stay home with my two young children. We leave the home once our twice a week for errands or activities. This leaves us home and available to care for and play with pups all day or for the majority of the day. We're in a slow season of life, so we're also available on the weekends in most cases. I have a large property for dogs to run and play. For those who need fencing, I am able to offer that as well or am able to take dogs out on the leash. Willing and and to crate dogs. We have two dogs of our own, they are livestock guardians and spend most of their time outside, but they are an integral part of our family and have been decently socialized with other dogs.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, I have dog sat for my sisters and friends. I can feed, walk, and bath them. I care for my pets as if there my children and I would do the same for any pet! I got to college online and work a full time job Monday through Friday, when I’m not working I’m home with my pets! They enjoy relaxing with me and my Niko loves car rides! I can do drop in visits and dog walking on weekends any times! Message me and we can definitely work something out! I live in an apartment so I don’t have much of a yard so when it’s not super hot I take Niko on walks let him run around, he enjoys laying outside and chillin. He has so much fluff the heat gets to him ☺️
“For my first time ever using Rover, Carli is a great option! She sent lots of photos and multiple updates, which i greatly appreciated! Will definitely be booking with carli again! Loved the experience!”

“Bree was fantastic! She took amazing care of Lucy and sent the best updates and photos. Her detailed messages made me feel so comfortable while I was away, and it was clear Lucy warmed up to her quickly. Highly recommend Bree—she’s wonderful!”
“Kaitlin did a wonderful job taking care of our 3 cats while we were away. She tended to all their little needs and then some and even watered my flowers! The cats were very comfortable with her. Would definitely book her again!”
“Michelle was awesome! She is very genuine and loves animals. She took great care of our kitty Hazel. She completed all of the visits as planned and sent great images and messages about the visit. She made our first experience with Rover a great one! We will request her again!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting/cat sitting for years through word of mouth. I prefer overnight stays so your pets aren’t lonely while you’re away. Treating all pets like they’re my own is very important to me. My cat is my little world and I’d do anything for her! I know how it is finding someone you can trust to watch over your friends and home. I’m a very conscientious guest and will leave your home exactly as you left it. No need to change sheets or wash towels when you return. I look forward to your message!
“Natasha was wonderful! She was very thorough and communicative, and we never had to worry about our cats while we were away because she was so on top of everything. She spent plenty of time with them on each visit, and also kept us updated with lots of photos. Our cats are senior citizens and need medications, so they're not the easiest to take care of, but Natasha handled everything incredibly well. We would happily have her watch our cats again.”
“Audrey was great!! I didn’t worry once that my kitties were being well taken care of. She sent pictures and videos, played with the cats, and communicated with me everyday! 100% will request her in the future.”
About: I have taken care of my 18-year-old cat since she was born. She recently went deaf, and has required more attention. I have also been watching my family’s cats when they are out of town since I was young.
About: I’ve always had a love for cats and animals in general. I grew up with two cats of my own and even fostered cats when I was younger, which helped me learn how to care for cats with different personalities and needs. I love how every cat has their own little personality, whether they’re playful, cuddly, shy, or more independent. I have experience with feeding, cleaning litter boxes, giving attention and affection, and making sure cats feel comfortable and safe in their own space. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I’ll treat your cat with the same love and care I would give my own.

About: Hi! I grew up on a hobby farm of sorts - chickens, goats, calves, guinea pigs, cats, dogs, and even the occasional injured wild bird or rabbit. I have since moved around, explored the country, and landed here in Henry County. During my trvels, I voluntered at many shelters as well as adopted 5 dogs who have sinced crossed the rainbow bridge. I now have two big squishy pups who love traveling and soaking up rays of sunshine. I work from home during the week and have a few home depot shifts on the weekend. I work from home during the week and home depot on the weekends. We like going for morning and evening walks along with some rolling around in the back yard over lunch. This will depend on the pet and his/her personality. I have many ways of separating animals should it be needed. Or, if wveryone is getting along, we have a nice big back ars for playtime and wrastling.

We live in the country with a lot of land and are saving up to open our own dog boarding, training, and grooming business! We would love to care for your pets ☺️ My husband has trained our dogs and is very knowledgeable, while i support him with helping care for and love on all animals. We love what we do!!! My husband and i are both working full time but have certain days off to make sure we can fit dog boarding in our schedule. We have a lot of land and space in our home to care for many animals at a time. We have plenty of space for crates when necessary. We spend a lot of time outdoors and use safety precautions to ensure no animal is ever lost.
About: I’ve had very many different types of dogs in our family through the years. I’ve raised dogs from 6 weeks old to senior.

About: I have loved and have been owned by many animals for all of my 61 years. Caring for them is an honor I cherish greatly! I taught high school for almost 30 years at Concordia Lutheran High School and almost 8 years as a social worker. I’ve absolutely adored my students and clients and would like to shower my love on your pet-angel(s) as well! I have recently retired from my careers as a high school teacher and from social work. What this means is that I now have ample time to spend with your pet(s) each weekday and weeknight as well as on the weekends! create my own schedule on an as-needed basis for you…plus I usually have weekends free for ample time with your pet. I love to walk, play and give lots of love and attention so those will be incorporated frequently! I will treat your pet(s) and home with the utmost respect as I do my own. I will stay in frequent contact with you and will take pictures throughout the visit and send updates each night so you can be assured of my service and your pet’s well-being.
About: I've spent my whole life with dogs and cats, and some crazier pets like snakes or even a tarantula! My dad has a tendency to get pets he can't afford... but it certainly taught me to take care of animals! I work full-time, and would love to spend my days off meeting and caring for pets (as well as making a little extra lol... things are expensive!) I have two indoor cats who I love love love! They've got lots and lots of toys, and I love playing with them :) I grew up with a dog who unfortunately had to stay with my parents after I moved out, but I absolutely loved him and playing with him too!
About: I previously worked for my local humane society for over a year, caring for a wide variety of animals ranging from young kittens and puppies to senior pets. I also have experience with birds, rats, and rabbits. During that time, I cared for animals with special needs, administered daily medications, and worked with pets who were highly reactive or needed extra patience and understanding. I'm also a proud foster fail—I adopted both a tiny kitten I fostered at just a few weeks old and an older, grouchy cat who stole my heart. I work part-time and am very flexible. Caring for animals fits naturally into my routine, and I love spending quality time making sure pets feel happy, safe, and loved. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. I make sure the environment is clean, secure, and comfortable, with spaces where pets can relax and feel safe. I keep toxic items and hazards out of reach and follow any specific routines or rules you share. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and your pet’s routine, from feeding schedules to favorite toys and walking routes. I always keep a close eye on pets, use positive reinforcement, and take extra care with animals who have special needs, medications, or reactivity.

About: I have grown up with animals in my household and family for as long as I can remember. I love dogs (big and small), and have helped train the many we have had. I go to Purdue and I’m home for the summer so my availability is very open. Weekdays and some weekends all day. Just hit me up! As long as you give instructions, I will follow them closely. I have no problem handling big dogs as I am a big guy, as long as they are friendly 😊.
“Thank you Audrey for helping out with Terra on such short notice (and on a holiday weekend, to boot!)! I really appreciate you! Fast, friendly communication. Very attentive to our needs & special requests. Terra was perfectly happy when I got home from my trip!”
About: I have been taking care of my 18-year-old cat since she was born. She has recently gone deaf and requires more attention. For two years, I frequently took care of a family with 5 children and 2 Great Danes. I give my cat attention daily, making sure she feels loved and content. This often includes filling her food, water, and changing her litter box, as well as many pets and cuddles. I would love to walk, play with, and take care of your pets. At home, I make sure my cat has a clean litter box and plenty of attention.

“Natasha is my go-to for my dog walking needs! She is flexible and works with me and my crazy schedule, and best of all my doggo loves her. I really appreciate the pictures and updates she sends me during her visits - it’s a relief to me during a long day at work to know that I don’t have to worry about my pup.”
