About: I grew up owning and taking care of many different animals. I always wanted to be a veterinarian and went to Purdue University and graduated with a degree in Veterinary Technology. I now work for Purdue as an advisor for that program! I love animals and am very attentive and knowledgeable. I can administer medications, trim nails, etc. I will give your pets the best care possible! I work remotely (from home or anywhere) and have flexible schedule for the most part. I can work with you to fit your pets’ needs. I have a big yard, one dog, and 3 cats of my own. I take walks daily and will gladly take your dog for walks.

“Lisa was kind enough to help me when I needed a last minute sitter for my puppy. I got updates throughout my work day and pictures showing my Cider being loved and cared for. I was nervous using this service for a non housebroken pup but Lisa took care to give her breaks outside and show her to pee pads. I can’t thank her enough!!!”

“Kayla and her husband were so welcoming and careful with our puppies! You can tell right away Kayla genuinely cares for making our puppies feel at home with her and her family. Murray and Rio surely had a great time at Kayla’s home. I’m beyond grateful for having found someone to care for our puppies when we’re away. Thank you so much for having our puppies at your home, Kayla! And thanks for taking care of them as if they were your own. It means the world to me!”

About: I have fostered for the Greater Dayton Lab Rescue for several years. I have experience with dogs of all ages and I love them all. I am currently working two half days of week. Sometimes I go out to run a quick errand, but I am home most of the day. I have a fence in yard for the dogs to go out to play, run, and do their business. They stay in most of the time.

“Casey and her brother were fantastic with Wren! She came back tired from playing all day, and ready to cuddle up and sleep! Casey sent me updates with pictures and videos throughout the 9 hours she had her, which made me feel good about leaving my girl with her!”

About: Hi, I’m Lisa! I’ve been lucky enough to share my life with dogs since I was a kid—and I truly can’t imagine a day without them. With decades of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities, I bring more than just a love for animals—I bring a lifetime of knowledge, intuition, and calm, confident care. Whether your pup is playful and energetic or a laid-back snuggler, I take the time to understand their unique needs and routines. I’m comfortable with everything from puppy training basics to senior dog care, and I know how important consistency, affection, and communication are when you’re away. I offer a safe, loving environment where your dog will be treated like family—because to me, that’s exactly what they are. Let’s chat! I’d love to learn more about your furry best friend and how I can help! I am a stay at home grandma who has nothing but time for your fur babies! I love to go on walks and have loads of play time available! I offer a home away from home experience to minimize anxiety and maximize care so you can enjoy your time away with no worries or issues!

“Michelle was great! We felt comfortable leaving our sweet girl in her care, and the pictures that Michelle sent us put our minds at ease that she was having a good time. Thanks Michelle!”

About: I have been taking care of animals for my whole life. I currently own two Ferret, two dogs, and two cats. I love training dogs I am actually trying to save money to start taking certifications for dog training. I am a disabled human, so I spend almost all day at home able to care for animals. Dogs will go outside to potty every 4 hours unless special instructions are given. My dog Ruger will not be around any male dogs that I watch. I will only accept to watch a dog if the owner also bring their dog a crate, their own toys, and some of the dogs food. I will not accept dogs that have any aggression.

“Bill was great with our dog! I felt very comfortable leaving him there and he seemed happy when we picked him up. I would definitely use bill for dog sitting again.”

About: We’ve had dogs of all sizes in our home since I can remember. And I’ve raised a few of my own along with 2 cats I am available all week. I can check in on your pets and let them out and feed them according to your routine. I will also walk your pets. I can also board and host daily care of multiple pets. You can leave me any detailed instructions on how you’d like your pet cared for. I’ll come in and take them out into the yard to do their business, or change their pads/clean up cat litter and clean any messes they may have left. If they need to be fed I’ll give them food and water also according to your instructions. And if they need to be walked around the neighborhood or park I can do that also. When they are in my home you can bring toys, beds, or Blankets that they feel more comfortable in, but I can provide that as well. You may bring your own food that does well for their diet.

“Medusa loved it here! Jordan was so patient with Medusa given the separation anxiety she has away from me. 10/10 recommend! Will definitely book again :)”

About: Hi, I’m Misty — a former dog trainer, lifelong animal lover, and the heart behind your dog’s next favorite place to stay. We live on 5 peaceful acres with my Bernese Mountain Dog and Mixed breed rescue dog who love new friends! We also have two kindhearted boys who never turn down a game of fetch or a belly rub. We do have two indoor cats that typically hide from unfamiliar dogs. All dogs are required to complete a compatibility meet-and-greet to ensure they get along with our dogs and are safe around our cats. Your dog will have plenty of room to safely roam thanks to our GPS-tracked fence, or if preferred, a cozy designated spot inside our home. Whether they love playing with new friends or need a quieter stay, we’re happy to match their vibe. Crates are available if that’s part of your dog’s routine, and I’m always here to make sure they feel secure, seen, and loved. Here, your dog isn’t just boarded — they’re welcomed like family. I am a business owner that works from home. Aside from school drop off and pick up, with sports mixed into the week, you will find me at the house with our family. I have raised many pups and understand that some have potty requirements that might involve getting up through the night. Our setting is ideal for dogs that are already used to sound and vibration as we use a Spot On Collar for our guests. Part of the meet and greet will be spent setting up the collar to best suit your dog. Some respond to mild beeping some respond best with audio and vibration. For those that request it, there is adjustable static available on the collar as well. Our dogs prefer spending most of their time indoors and we would treat your dog the same, allowing them to safely be where they prefer.

About: I'm 30. I have had dogs all my life. I've trained since age 8(in 4h and then as an adult) I've trained service dogs, search and rescue. Protection training, basic obediance, conformation, fastcat, dock diving.... dogs are my life other than my other half and our girls! I work a couple hours a day. I train dogs daily. I'd love to help if somebody needs a sitter(I cannot stay the night as I have a toddler) but I can go let dogs out as many times a day as needed. Not afraid of messes. Dogs are my life I crate my dogs and introduce slowly. Dogs don't get rushed. We live for the dogs! I take the dogs seriously. And their needs come first!
