“We can't say enough wonderful things about Bree! She took care of our two cats, Coco and Buddy, with so much love and attention—it truly felt like she was treating them as her own. From the moment we met her, we knew our fur babies were in great hands. Bree went above and beyond in every way. She didn’t just make sure they were fed and comfortable— but kept them happy, and even managed to groom Coco better than we ever have (and that’s saying something!). Coco looked like she stepped out of a cat salon when we got home! We came home to two very content, well-loved cats—and a clean, organized space, which was such a bonus. If you're looking for a trustworthy, kind, and truly exceptional pet sitter, Bree is it. We feel so lucky to have found her.”

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 have experience working in a vet clinic. I know how to access needs beyond the basics. I have experience in sitting and training. I work well with seniors. I currently work full time during the week. I will be available during the weekends to watch your furry friends! My schedule is fairly flexible during the weekend. I have a fenced in yard at my residence. Also, the house is in a safe location. I am able to drive to and from client's home. I have access to a vehicle at all times of the day.
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: The majority of my dog sitting caring experiance is for medium-large sized dogs such as Heelers, Huskies, Golden Doodles, and Corgies to name a few. I dog sat for family, friends, neighbors in high school then split my time childcare once I began college. I love all animals truly. I have two cats (an orange tabby and a Maine Coon mix) and a gorgeous Blue Heeler mix. So everything from overnight to quick walks I am at your disposal. I am currently working part-time in the mornings, so afternnoons and night stays work for me. This applies for both week days and weekends. My availablity is very flexible so I look to work around your schedule. My care is completely dependent on the need of each animal. If your baby needs to be hand fed every hour or just a pre-walk snuggle, I'm on it. Regardless giving them love and meeting your expectations is the priority.
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.

I currently work part time with a lot of availability. I’m available at almost any hour of the day. I currently have a cat but he has his own space if tensions were to rise.
