About: I have professional experience working in veterinary medicine and providing compassionate, attentive care to animals with a wide range of personalities and needs. Through my experience, I have developed skills in recognizing changes in behavior, safely handling pets, administering medications when directed, monitoring overall health and comfort, and helping reduce stress during care. I’m comfortable caring for energetic pets, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or attention. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important trust, communication, and consistency are. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in experienced and caring hands. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM–6:00 PM, with Thursdays and weekends off, but I still make time to provide dependable pet care around my schedule. I’m available for morning drop-ins, evening visits, overnight care when planned in advance, and have greater flexibility on Thursdays and weekends for longer visits, walks, and quality time. I understand how important routines are for pets and will work with owners to make sure their pets receive consistent, attentive care that fits their needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. With my background in veterinary medicine and hands-on animal care experience, I pay close attention to behavior, routines, and any signs that a pet may be stressed or uncomfortable. I believe trust is built through communication, consistency, and treating every animal with patience and respect. I work to create a calm, safe, and positive environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away, and I provide updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and experienced hands.
“Allyson is an excellent dog sitter! She’s been wonderful with my YorkiePoo, Jamaica, while I work from home. She keeps him active and entertained throughout their time together, and it’s clear he genuinely enjoys her company. Jamaica always seems happy and well-exercised after their walks. I really appreciate how engaged and attentive she is with him. Highly recommend Allyson if you’re looking for a reliable, caring dog sitter!”
About: I have lived in a home with a dog or cat since I was 3 years old. I have taken care of other people’s dogs and cats over the last 7 years, whether that be visiting their home during the day, staying in their home overnight, or bringing the pet to my own home. I love animals and am always respectful of people’s homes, care instructions, and boundaries. I currently work from home part time as a freelance video editor, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m happy to fit animal care into my schedule and am very dependable. I have visited and even stayed overnight at many people’s homes to care for their pets. I’m always very respectful of people’s spaces, their care instructions, and their boundaries.
“I was nervous about leaving my dog for the first time in his life. Monica was great. She reassured me everything was fine and sent photos and video of his visits. She even went above dog sitting and brought treats on her last day for both the dog and myself, cleaned up around the house and even brought in the house a very large package that was delivered on the wrong day so that it was secured. Monica is great and will be using her again when needed.”
“Molly provided exceptional drop-in care for our cat, Thomas, while we were away on vacation for a week. Thomas is a very affectionate house cat, but he’s usually hesitant around new people. I wasn’t sure if he would come out during her visits, but I needed someone responsible who would maintain his normal routine by providing fresh food and keeping his litter box clean. Molly exceeded every expectation. She sent us daily photos of Thomas enjoying snuggles and playtime with her, along with thoughtful updates about his behavior and how he was adjusting. It was clear she took the time to make him feel comfortable and cared for. Knowing Thomas had companionship and comfort while we were away gave us peace of mind. We would recommend Molly to anyone looking for a dependable pet sitter who is truly in tune with cats. She is a natural with them.”
“Angela took wonderful care of our pets while we were away! She handled our somewhat complicated routine for food and medication without a hitch, and her thorough updates put our minds at ease while we took a much needed break. We came home to find our pack happy and relaxed. Thank you Angela!”
“We had to leave our fur family over the holidays. Lucky for us and them, Kara was available. She is great with our three cats; they now all greet her at the door. She provides excellent feedback, which is reassuring when traveling.”
About: 🐾 Registered Veterinary Technician Providing Exceptional Pet Care 🐾 Hi! My name is Kelsey, and I am a Registered Veterinary Technician with 7 years of experience in the veterinary field. I currently work in both general practice and shelter medicine, where I care for pets of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments every day. Animals have always been my passion. I became a veterinary technician because I wanted to give animals a voice and help ensure they receive the care, comfort, and advocacy they deserve. As a pet sitter, I bring that same dedication into every visit. I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting services throughout the Indianapolis area. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, medication administration, or companionship while you’re away, you can feel confident knowing they are in experienced and capable hands. My veterinary background allows me to provide a level of care that goes beyond traditional pet sitting. I am experienced in administering oral medications, insulin injections, subcutaneous fluids, and intramuscular injections. I am also trained to recognize changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, and overall health. If I notice anything concerning, I will not hesitate to contact you. At home, I share my life with a Husky, two Husky-Pitbull mixes, a German Shepherd mix, and a turtle. Caring for a diverse group of pets has given me firsthand experience with different personalities, energy levels, and care requirements. My goal is simple: to keep your pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I love building relationships with both pets and their owners and treating every animal as if they were my own. I am comfortable caring for: • Dogs of all sizes and breeds • Senior pets • Puppies and kittens • Multiple-pet households • Pets requiring medications or special care • Shy, nervous, or reactive pets I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I currently work full time but my schedule is flexible! If there are any specific needs you have, I am willing to accommodate you and your fur babies :) I currently care for my pets through a large privacy fence and lots of attention! Our pets are very routine-based, but I am also flexible when client’s pets have specific needs.

“Tilmer is an excellent sitter! He took great care of my cats and provided detailed drop in updates. He sent photos and let me know how they were doing. He even took care of any messes they made in the kitchen and brought packages in for us. He’s very kind and the kitties loved him! Will definitely book with him again.”

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - West Newton
Tess did a fantastic job taking care of our cats while we were on vacation. One of our cats has diabetes and she did great administering his insulin. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures that we very much looked forward to. There were a few things that came up at the house that I needed help with, and she went above and beyond to help out. I was able to relax knowing my kiddos were in great hands. Will 110% book with Tess again!
My cat Hudson was in fine Health when I returned from my trip . Kaitlyn sent me photos each day . When I talked to Kaitlyn before I left she proved to be a very kind and loving Young woman. Hudson was his normal self when I returned! I hope when I go on my next trip Kaitlin will be available to look in on Hudson.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
