About: I've been caring for people's furbabies for many years in my home and staying at the clients homes. I'm very patient and flexible in caring for these pups (and cats!). Let me know what you need, and I will figure out how to meet that need! I live in Marion and am more than willing to travel the region. Again, I am flexible and willing to negotiate! Let me help you relax. Don't worry while you are away, I will help your furbabies chill and have a vacation of their own. I am willing to tidy up your house while you are away too! Just let me know what you need and I'd be happy to help! I work a flexible schedule so I can rotate my work needs around your pet's needs, no worries, I will get what is needed done! You can trust me to be gentle with your pet and give them the care and safety they need. If they need walks, play time, whatever, I can provide! I am currently able to have a flexible schedule and have minimal life responsibilities. Therefore I have quite an open schedule and am willing to accommodate almost anything! Again, I am flexible and willing to think outside the box to meet the needs of your family. I communicate frequently with the client to best understand the needs of the furbabies. I will make sure the animals (and humans) have the opportunity to build a relationship to establish trust and confidence in my ability to provide high quality of care.

“She did well walking Sasha, however, reliability was an issue. In her last walk, she never contacted that she wasn’t going to be there. Several of the last days were canceled. She also is caring for an infant!”

He the most well behaved boy I know!

I also am a camp counselor for Hoof-prints horse camp, I have been helping with that for over 10 years. Most importantly I love dog-sitting, and I love the feeling that people can put their trust in me. I also love that I’m helping the dog to stay in its normal environment. I even have my own dog, a lab/golden cross named Marbles. I can’t wait to meet your dog!!!! I have an open schedule currently! I can care for your pet(s) whenever is convenient for you. Whether it’s overnight stays or a quick drop in, I’ve got you covered! Since I will be in your home my goal will be to follow the routine that you prefer your dog or other pets to follow and is their normal routine. Including what time they get up in the morning, potty breaks, feedings, walking, and play time. This is something we will go over during a meet and greet at your home so that we can go over it together.

About: I have had dogs since I was a child and have over 35 years experience of caring for my own pets and even helped in rescuing and rehoming dogs who have been dumped and left in wanted. I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes and demeanor, from the little dogs who think they are ferocious monsters to the ones who are the big couch potato babies. I work full time now but it is still a daily requirement for me to feed my big fur babies and I can still work in a schedule/ if I’m not home my wife is able to take care of your babies needs as well. Our son, and two other fur babies Samson and Critter can see too it that they also get plenty of play time. I have an unfenced yard but I can place on a lead for your baby to do their business and a 3 year old lab who is a huge baby, I also am married with a son who will definitely help your fur baby burn off some energy. I walk my own dog almost daily and have no problem walking yours. My dog does stay in a crate when we are gone for a period and only then, but crating is always your choice if you crate yours that’s fine if not he/she is free to run the house and even lay on any of the furniture. We use covers.

About: For my career I am a zookeeper taking care of all types of species from young to old. I have provided medical care and geriatric care. I currently work full time as a zookeeper and am looking for some side work that encompasses my passion of animals. Pet care is my full time job and full time home life. My pets have a fenced yard, an in/out kennel that allows them the freedom to be in or outside all day long. They have heat in the winter in the kennel and fans/fresh air in the summer. They stay in our home when we are home.

About: My family has had dogs my whole life. Currently I have a niece (goldendoodle) and nephew (labradoodle), but I miss my son (staffordshire) every day. I am active at my local humane society and I'm ready to care for your furry family member as well. I currently have a part-time job, so my availability is very flexible and can be easily adjusted to accommodate pet care. I look forward to adding your dog to my schedule! I live very close to my local park, so it is a frequent stop when I care for dogs. Additionally, I prioritize play and indoor enrichment if weather isn't conducive to a safe walk.

About: I have had over 30 years around pets. People trust me with their pets and love the care and attention that I give their pets. I substitute teach and also work part-time.

I am available all weekends & evenings as well. I can be as flexible as possible with your needs. I have a fenced in yard, I have a cat. I have a big home and big luxurious yard for plenty of leg room for zoomies.

About: I’ve spent the past 10 years or so dog sitting for 1-6 dogs at a time along with farm animals. I am welcome to caring for all animals! I will soon be off work full time and more than happy to take on dog walking / pet caring responsibilities as often as possible. I have a fenced in yard. I am willing to care for your animal at your home to keep them and you comfortable, also. I do not currently have pets but previously lived with multiple dogs, horses, and cats throughout my life.

About: I love working with animals and showing them the love they deserve. I have many years of experience, including 2 years of professional experience. As a child, I had 2 cats at my mom's house and 1 dog at my dad's house. I learned how to care for them at a young age, and I only continued to learn how to care for pets as I got older. I began pet sitting when I was 12. I watched my teacher's black lab multiple times over a 4 year period. Then, I adopted a puppy and a stray dog who showed up at my porch a couple of years ago. I have taken them to dog training classes and have learned many strategies to help further their education. I also worked with the Wabash County Animal Shelter over the summer of 2022. Now, my wife and I volunteer at the Kokomo Humane Society by walking dogs and fostering. I am getting ready to start my first year of teaching in late July, so I am currently on summer vacation and looking for some fulfilling ways to spend my time. I have an open schedule besides a few days here and there for family events. Therefore, I have lots of time to care for your pets during the week and weekends. I realize that every owner has a different parenting style, so I will happily follow the routine and care as specified. I know that I would be nervous having someone take care of my pups, so I will help alleviate some of that stress by communicating clearly, being flexible, and sending plenty of photos.

About: I’ve had pets pretty much all my life. They each become a part of me and stay in my heart forever. I’ve had cats, dogs, fish, birds, and I have cared for them along with bunnies and snakes when I worked at the shelter. I love my pets dearly and will treat your pets with as much love. I currently have more open availability in the mornings so I would be able to check in on your pets for you while you run your errands or you’re at work. Give them the love and attention that you want to give them, but unfortunately aren’t able to. I wake up in the mornings and give my babies food and fresh water. Give them attention once they wake up a little bit. I check their bowls periodically when I’m home and change the water at night and give them a little more food before bed. Along with nighttime cuddles because house are important. I wake up in the morning and take care of my cats first thing. Get them food. I wash their water bowl out and get them fresh water. I give them attention after they wake up a little bit more. I pay attention to their body signs and try to give them what they need. I love and care for my pets and I will do the same for yours.
