House Sitting in Bethany

“Shelly was wonderful! She took great care of our pets while we were away for the weekend, send plenty of pictures and stayed in touch, and was very respectful of our home. We really appreciated her looking after them!”

About: I did an internship at medical mutts where I trained service dogs and helped take care of them. I’ve watched friends dogs. I train dogs too! I’m not really doing anything, so I’m available pretty much whenever, I am totally flexible. I can do long term or short term schedules. I want your dog to be safe! I’m unfortunately not able to do boarding at my house, but I can take your dog out to see my little brothers or my grandma because she loves dogs, I can take your dog to the park and I can even train your dog!

“She was great and very communicative! Would definitely use again!”

About: **I have 4 years experience fostering and training reactive, aggressive, and fearful dogs. I’ve seen many transform into well-adjusted companions under my care** I have lots of experience caring for and tending to older dogs and cats with various health issues like hip dysplasia and incontinence, and I have ample experience with puppy and kitten care, too. I am patient and kind even with the highest maintenance puppies. I fostered neglected/previously abused dogs with Carolina Adopt-A-Bulls rescue for over 4 years. I am very experienced with mitigating leash reactivity and caring for heartworm-positive pets throughout their treatment, and I look out for dangerous situations before they happen. I am well versed in canine first aid and wound care. I am also a foster volunteer through the Bloomington Animal Shelter. I do not currently have a foster dog. I am attentive, caring, experienced, and kind. I can’t wait to meet your pets. I am a doctoral student, so I have some flexibility in my schedule. I’m booked up until 6pm on Wednesdays, but have more flexibility the rest of the week. I can take your pup for walks around the neighborhood, campus, or the many parks Bloomington has to offer. I have a comfy dog bed for canine visitors to lounge in while I’m studying.

“Zoe was very attentive and communicative. Warner and Vivie loved having her hangout with them and are already looking forward to having her back!”

“Stacey was amazing and went above and beyond for me and my pets. She mentioned she has 3 large dogs and her experience really showed. At one point I ran out of dog food and she offered to go pick some up. She also watched over my guinea pig and took great care of him, since she has rabbits of her own. I will definitely be booking her again and again!”

“Kayla took great care of Lucy while we were out of town. She was very responsive and sent lots of photos! We would definitely recommend her to others!”

“Shakarra was great with our 2 dogs! They can be a lot but they loved her! She was very responsive and sent pictures. I was so grateful to have her here and take care of them!”

About: I’ve had over 10 years of experience caring for dogs from growing up around them and helping care for family pets. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, giving lots of attention, and making sure dogs feel comfortable and safe. I also studied with the goal of becoming a veterinarian, which helped me learn more about animal behavior and proper care. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of different sizes and personalities. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I have a dog of my own and have grown up around animals. I’m already used to responsibilities like feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for every day. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so pet care feels like a rewarding part of my routine rather than just a task. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they’re in my home or a client’s home. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and any special instructions from the owner. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, patience, and supervision so they feel relaxed while their owner is away. I keep the environment clean, calm, and pet friendly at all times.

“Christina was wonderful to our pets while we were away on vacation. She shared photos and general updates that all was well. Christina was responsive when I reached out too. Overall, the house and animals were well loved while we were away. Thank you, Christina!”

“Abbigail was great for our two dogs! We had never used this service before and were a bit nervous. She met us and our dogs before we left and she did a wonderful job with them while we were away. It was so much better for us to allow them to stay home with her than to transport them somewhere else while we were away. We will definitely book again in the future! Thanks, Abbigail!”

“This was our 1st time using Danielle and could not be happier with her. She communicated quickly with us, sending updates and photos of our 2 dogs. Out of concern our poodle not eating (1st time being left alone) she was excellent at being creative to get her to eat and make sure they were healthy. Our great Dane didn't care, she eats no matter what. Haha. The house looked great when we got home and look forward to working with Danielle again. Definitely recommend.”

About: With experience in 4-H dog training and a lifetime of owning and caring for animals , I have developed strong skills in pet care, including walking, feeding, basic training, and recognizing animal needs. I understand how to be patient, calm, and responsible when working with pets, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I am dependable and truly enjoy spending time with dogs or any animals Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I work a job every day except Monday, Sunday, and Wednesday, so I am available to provide pet care services on those days. I can also offer flexible times on my available days, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on the client’s needs. I am committed to being reliable and making sure pets receive consistent, attentive care around my schedule. I always prioritize the safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medication needs, and house rules to keep the pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure doors and gates are secure at all times, and I never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. I stay alert during walks and outdoor time to ensure they are safe from other animals, traffic, or hazards. I treat each pet with patience, respect, and kindness, creating a calm and positive environment where they feel comfortable and cared for, just like they would with their owner.

“Once again - Sarah did an amazing job! She communicated well and took wonderful care of our fur babies and our home. She even helped with some gardening! Sarah is welcome anytime!!”

About: I am pawsitively the best. I have been around pets and taking care of pets my whole life my family adores pets, so we’ve always had them. I used to be the neighborhood sitter for children and pets, growing up during my teenage years and in my college years. In my opinion, nothings more wonderful than caring for our furry friends and making sure they are happy and comfortable and have the best life they can have. I am also skilled at working with elderly pets and giving medication’s including insulin shots and I’ve had to administer an IV regularly on one of my cats in the past who had diabetes and her pancreas was going out, with that said, I am very comfortable administering any medication’s that your pet may need. I am an entrepreneur, and I’m currently working on putting together my business adventures. Sometimes I Uber and DoorDash or Instacart, which creates an open schedule. I can work around my pet care schedule with my current obligations. When I care for pets in my home, I am able to take them to the pet park that is provided by my apartment complex. There’s also a lot of wonderful places nearby to go on walks. If I am taking care of a cat, I would play with the cat and keep him/her very comfortable. If I am taking care of a cat or dog in your home and you have a fenced in backyard, I will make sure your pet has time to run around and play and I will play as well with you furry friend or take your dog for a walk around the neighborhood.

“maya was seriously amazing and so easy to chat with about the care of my pets.”

About: Have been around dogs my entire life. I have siblings with multiple dogs and whenever they are out of town I am always the one they have watch them. Currently just graduated and I don’t start my job until June. I’m free all times of the day and any day of the week works. Spend time with them and make sure they’re are staying out of trouble. Treat every animal the right way when taking care of them at all times.

“Gracie is absolutely wonderful! She is very friendly and easy to work with—she came right out to do an initial meet and greet to see if we were a good fit. She has been just great with our animals, clearly spending a lot of quality time with them, and she has been very reliable and responsive with communicating. Gracie is a great house guest too—she left the house in pristine condition ! We felt very comfortable leaving our home and animals in her care for the first time, and will be definitely be using her again. We highly recommend her services 😁”

About: I've taken care of pets all of my life. From puppies all the way up to seniors. I love them all. They all need someone to care for them and feel the extra love especially when their normal family is away. I'm currently flexible and can fit pet care into my daily routine. Occasionally, I will pick up an additional job. But that shouldn't interrupt with taking care of what I love to do and that is to take care of fur babies. I would rather take care of your pets in their environment due to the fact that they are most comfortable there. I also have two fur babies of my own. But I feel as if fur babies are normally happy in their own surroundings.

“Tasha did a great job dog sitting Nala for me! She was kind, attentive, and caring toward Nala and was willing to work with me on scheduling! It was so nice to be able to go out of town for a night and have peace of mind knowing my girl was being taken care of by a fellow animal lover :)”
