About: I have a senior Chihuahua and a puppy Anatolian Shepherd Pyrenees mix. I love my dogs and have spent many hours training and playing with them. I have also had two cats in the past and have pet sat for friends before and never had any issues. I have a part-time job so I am pretty flexible. I do have my own pets that I take care of too but I can work around my schedule I really love dogs so I give them lots of love and walks and play time, as well as structured training. I understand that different pets have different needs so I don’t mind catering towards their needs.

“Maddie has been AMAZING with our anxious dog! She is always communicating with me, and our dog absolutely loves her! Would recommend 100%!”

About: I have grown up with at least two dogs in my house my whole life. I have experience with rabbits as well. Since coming to college I have missed being around animals! I am currently a college student and I don’t have any other jobs. I am looking to have this be my main source of income and be available as much as I can. I am capable of crating your dog if needed. I always keep an eye on the dogs if we are outside. I make sure all of their needs are met including water, food, and play time!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and now as an adult rescuing cats I have plenty of experience with animals! I’ve cared for lots of senior animals, and kittens! I’d love to give your fur babies extra TLC during your time away! Pet care fits naturally into my routine, even with my full-time work schedule. I’m most available during evenings and weekends, which allows me to give pets my full attention without rushing. Whether it’s evening feedings, walks, playtime, or weekend check-ins, I’m able to provide consistent, reliable care that works perfectly for both your schedule and your pet’s needs. I’m committed to providing a safe, trustworthy, and comfortable environment for every pet I care for. From secure handling and attentive supervision to maintaining a calm, clean space, I make sure pets feel protected and at ease. My goal is to build trust with both you and your pets, creating an environment where they can relax, play, and feel completely cared for while you’re away.

About: I have owned pets all my life and always hated boarding my pets due to the stress they endure thats why I offer my services. I also offer care for cats and small animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs ect. As of right now I am available anytime. Ive worked at vet clinics and volunteered at shelters. Ive taken care of senior dogs, hyper and young dogs. Also have administered meds to animals. Recently I have watched farm animals such as chickens,goats,horses and a Llama. I currently have 4 dogs of my own and 2 of my moms dogs. We have 1 cat. Ive had several dogs and 2 other cats in the past as well as 2 rabbits. I also have been petsitting since 2012 and have refrences. I do walks with dogs. I also offer nail trims, brush outs ECT. If you would like to know more please message me and I would be happy to answer. I do also have a Facebook page Howling Hounds Pet Care. Unfortunately my prices have increased due to Rover taking 20%. Please note i am willing to work with people on pricing if contacted PRIOR to services. I am currently doing this as my full time employment as I go to school for pet grooming in the spring. I am an owner to 4 crazy beagles so I know what it's like to make sure pets have the stress free environment when we are gone. All pet care is done in the client's home. This creates more calmness within the pet and less stress. They can be where they are used to.

About: Growing up with an Australian Shepherd Blue Heeler mix (Buddy), I loved teaching him new tricks, going for walks, and playing enriching games that helped get his energy out. My parents added a Chiweenie (Joey) to the family a couple years ago, so now when I visit I love to walk them both, give Buddy back massages, and snuggle little lap dog Joey. I often dog/house sit for my parents; being in their home environment seems to be most comfortable for the pups. Aside from dogs, I graduated from IU Bloomington in 2021, have switched careers from management and sales to healthcare, and now work for a local school system. I am looking for something fun, active, and outdoors for the summer - what better activity than dog walking/sitting?! I cannot wait to connect and meet your furry family. I am currently working full time, but will soon have the summer off to help care for your pups! My current schedule varies, but I am available some evenings and weekends. Send me a message and I will get back to you ASAP! I will ensure to adhere to any dog schedules/routines, send regular photo/text updates upon client request, and to care for your dogs like my own. I will do everything in my power to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. You can expect frequent and thorough communication - don’t be afraid to leave detailed lists/notes of exactly how you want your dog cared for. I will do my best to mimic how you care for your pet to ease any distress and make your absence as enjoyable as possible for them.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to really get to know them and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have experience working with goats, cats, dogs and lizards, chickens and even horses, along with senior pets. I’m patient and consistent when it comes to basic training, potty routines, exercising and helping reinforce good habits. I know how important that is, so I focus on structure, positive reinforcement, and lots of encouragement. For senior pets, I have lots of experience in administering medication, and sticking closely to their routine, or providing extra attention and care. Reliability and communication are very important to me. I make sure you stay updated with messages, photos, and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make your pet feel happy, secure, and cared for every step of the way. I’m currently working part-time and remote, so I have plenty of flexibility to help others take care of their fur baby. You can count on me! I provide a safe, loving environment. I currently have a 4-year-old Bernedoodle who is everything to me. I grew up surrounded by animals and have always had a strong love for them. Over the years, I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors by dropping in to care for their pets, feeding them, spending quality time with them, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I make it a priority to follow each pet’s routine closely, give them plenty of attention, and create a calm, safe environment where they feel at home. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family

About: every sitter loves animals, but I really do adore animals and I love being able to just enjoy and meet new animals. My special skills with animals is to cuddle! I love making sure the fur babies are taking care of with love and respect! I currently work a full time job, M-T from 7 to 5, which is the main reason of dog sitting on the weekends! I can do full weeks just need to know ahead of time to be able to discuss with work! The best option is to have them at the client’s home, animals are always comfortable when at home and a place they know! It’s already scary that a stranger is in there house but much better than a scary car ride into a new house!

“Melanie was very responsible and Roxy loved her! She took her on an extra long walk and fed her and left everything very tidy and clean. Melanie is very communicative and highly trustworthy! I recommend her fully!”

About: I have a few years of experience house-sitting for dogs. During these visits, I take the dogs on walks, make sure they are fed, play with them, and provide companionship. I also am comfortable spending the night to be there for the dog at all hours. Most recently, I was a volunteer dog walker for Indy Humane, and have experience with all breeds and sizes of dogs. This is a summer job for me so I am extremely flexible! I can work at any hour and any day of the week except Sundays, but will make exceptions for multiple night stays. I care for dogs by keeping them on a leash when there is not a fenced in space. I also make sure they get adequate exercise and love while their owners are away.

About: Within the past couple years I started my own small business in pet transportation. I received licensing from the USDA and am knowledgeable in best practices in caring for pets while their families are away. I truly believe that our pets are our family and will aim to make your pets feel loved and well-cared for while you’re away. Beyond my own pets, transporting gave me experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I do have references to attest for the high standard of care I will provide. I am no longer transporting pets due to being away from my family (pets and humans) for extended periods of time. Recently I have become a stay at home mom, but really miss all the extra animals I got to love on. My availability is pretty flexible throughout the week now and I’m excited to meet your furry family members! I am available to care for your pet in your home or through walking. I will accept puppies/young dogs for boarding and doggy daycare in my home as I have my own large dogs, who are friendly, but intimidated by other large dogs. This can include feeding, administering medicine, walking, play time, crating, etc. I will always aim to stick to you and your pet’s schedule. I have a couple of years of experience in a vet office, initially attending college for veterinary medicine.

About: Since I was little we have always had a dog in our house! We currently have an adorable little Westie named Tilly. I am currently a college student in a Master's program and would love to help take care of your animals while I am away from mine! I have a partially fenced in backyard and right by Valparaiso University campus with lots of safe space for walking! I have been taking care of animals since I was little, so I can easily adapt to your living space! I am currently a graduate level college student at Valparaiso University! I have class from 9am-5pm M-F and am typically free on the weekends. Sometimes my schedule changes so always feel free to ask! I have a partially fenced in backyard and live near the campus of Valparaiso University. I am used to having my schedule organized, so keeping up with visits will be no problem!

“Sydnie was great! She took such good care of my puppy and sent me pics along the way. She also followed all of the notes I left and made sure he was fed before she left.🩵”

About: I am a 19 year old, currently a stay at home doggie mom. I was previously a Kennel Technician for 3 years at a Training, Boarding, and Grooming facility. I take pride in treating all dogs like my own I do not currently work so I have lots of time on my hands to care for you babies!! I offer mom-sat but take Sundays to myself I treat all dogs and cats like my own. I will cleanup any accidents they have prior to my arrival. And promise to get as much energy out of your dogs and/or cats possible

About: I brought home my first puppy of my own, Tucker, almost 2 years ago! He is my very best bud and I work diligently to make sure I’m raising him right! I love dogs of all sizes and love getting to spend time with them. I’ve attend quite a few dog training sessions to be prepared for certain situations! I’d love to help take care of your pup while you’re away! I work 8-3, but I let my dog out during my lunch break everyday! Your pup won’t be kept inside for more than 4 hours at a time. Once I’m home, I spend lots of time walking my dog or playing outside in the backyard! After doing a meet & greet, I am perfectly comfortable coming to your house to watch over your pups for you! If you would like me to keep them at my house, I would like to do a meet and greet with my own pup to make sure both of them feel comfortable with each other! I have a fenced in backyard and way too many toys!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages and sizes. I love animals and I love being active so your dog will be sufficiently walked. I’ve been entrusted to give animals medications, including shots during some of my sitting experiences, so I am familiar with that. I’ve also taken care of homeowners’ plants/yards while they’ve been away! I’ve had many friends and families re-use me for their pets! I am a salaried employee at my job, so I am available to take your dog out throughout the day. If I am gone for work, it’s only about 2-4 hours at my actually office building. I live in Warsaw, so I’m close to Winona Lake, Grace College, and the lake itself. I have two cats of my own, so I’m not currently boarding animals at my house, but am able to do drop in visits, house sitting jobs and dog walking jobs!

About: I have been around dogs all my life, especially at my grandparents house. Friends, family and members of the Akron community have relied and trusted me to walk their dog. I am currently doing school online, so I am available in the morning before class and anytime after 5pm during the week. Also available on weekends. I care for family and friends dogs either outside or inside their house, depending on the their request and preferences. I am willing to accommodate needs.
