About: I have always loved taking care of animals of every kind and I have been doing it for forever. If you let me take care of your pet, they will be loved and cherished and you will have a trustworthy and respectful person in your home. I am currently a college student so I am hoping to work with your pets on my breaks at home. On breaks or weekends I will be over to see your pet regularly and I will make sure each pet is well taken care of. That means working them into my daily routine. At your home, I am putting your pet and your house first. I will clean, take care of and watch anything you need me to while you give me permission to be at your home with your pet. No matter what I will make sure your house is taken care of and your pet is comfortable around me.
About: I grew up around dogs and have often been tasked with dog sitting, walking, playing, basically anything. Most of my family are dog people, and I was in charge of a lot for my childhood dog. I work nights, so I’m available during those busy days when you can’t find the time! I’m the perfect flexible carer during this hectic summer. I am incredibly respectful in spaces that aren’t my own, and while I can’t currently welcome your fur babies into my home, I’m comfortable in new environments and taking the pups for a walk anywhere!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, at one point we had 10. I’ve taken dog sat for many people in my church and in our neighborhood. I am currently a freshman at Trine University, so afternoons are best for me! I typically get out of class at 1 pm Monday-Friday. Thursdays I am completely free. I have a wood fenced yard that my two dogs play in and have plenty of space to roam. I can easily care for your dog if they have any special needs that need to be met.
About: I absolutely adore dogs. I have 5 of my own: 2 huskies (8 & 10), 1 Aussie (5), 1 Berne mix (1), and 1 rat terrior (17). My dogs and clients' pets get to enjoy my dog friendly home and 16+ acres. Your pet will be safe and happy enjoying the 5 acre yard space, walks, and treats alongside our pets. Hikes in the woods can be given upon request. I'm currently working part-time during the week. My schedule is very flexible to work around my pets and yours! The dogs receive breakfast and 2 potty times before I leave for work. When I get home in the afternoons they immediately go outside to potty and have playtime. We have a snack when we get back inside. Between then and supper the dog gets let out frequently and taken on a walk. Bedtime is usually around 9pm, and the dogs will be let out one last time before bed. My 5 acre yard is not fenced in, but I have leads available for our guests. The road is a private lane with only one other home past mine, so cars are not a big concern. My dogs are all friendly, so your pet can make new friends quickly. I do offer kenneling for when I am not home to directly supervise everyone. If your dog is not kennel trained, I also have a private room they can stay in.
