About: I have taken care of pets since I was 11. Mostly my own family’s pet and occasionally a friend or family member’s pet. Our pets are our family. I can stop by your home twice a day for feedings, walks, litter care, etc during the week or it can be arranged on the weekends if I am not booked For boarding, we have a spacious backyard for the fur babies to run around in as well as a quiet neighborhood to go on walks I can feed your pet according to their dietary needs and preferences, take them out of their crate if they are crate trained, etc. I will definitely make sure your pet gets love!
“Chris and Erika were great! Their pup, Kinzie made for a great play buddy for our dog, Boba during his stay. Sitters were very responsive to our inquiry and questions. Would recommend them to anyone!”
“My two (big) dogs stayed with Amy over Christmas. It was a first time experience for us and I am so thankful that we picked Amy! She sent us pics and updates daily and I could tell my boys were happy, relaxed, peaceful, and loved in her home. They have only stayed with my mom in the past and I’m so glad that we had a positive experience all around. Amy is kind, professional, calm, and trustworthy. Thank you for taking such good care of our boys 💕🐾”
“This was our first time having our puppy sleep over with a sitter. Kat was very patient with me and answering all my questions. I never felt pressured or rushed! Kat sent pictures and was prompt with responding to my check ins. I will definitely use Kat again.”
About: I have had pets in the house since I was a kid. Dogs, cats, hermit crabs, rats. I’m punctual and able to adhere to your rules/guidelines concerning your pet. I’m currently retired enjoying my time at home. Will work part time in the fall. We have 2 responsible adults and a teenager in our home that can take care of any needs or playtime your pet may need. I have a fenced yard and one high energy doggie that eats twice a day. Potty breaks are always available. I have 2 gentle, loving cats that enjoy being around other people and dogs.
“Keandra went above and beyond to make sure my dog had a good time. She also was very flexible with pickup/drop off times which was helpful since I had a flight early in the morning. She also gave my dog a free shower and made sure he got plenty of exercise and play time with her dogs. 100% would recommend Keandra”
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life and loved them each so much. I am experienced with a gentle heart and genuine love for animas. I’m currently home all week raising my kids and cats. I’m available anytime throughout the week to take care of your animals needs and wants! ❤️ I have a fenced in yard and can easily crate your animal inside my house. I have three friendly cats that sleep on their own level of the house at night.
About: With over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments, I provide compassionate, attentive care that feels just like home. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or a calm walk, I adapt my approach to meet each pet’s unique personality and health needs. What sets me apart is my patience, consistency, and ability to earn trust quickly, from both pets and their owners. I have a golden doodle of my own so caring for pets is what I do all day. He is very energetic but also loves his naps. I am a college student so during the summer i am with him 24/7 Whether caring for pets in my home or at a client’s home, my top priority is creating a safe, stress-free, and loving environment. I stick closely to the pet’s normal routine—feeding times, walks, play, and rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space and follow all instructions carefully, from feeding and medication to keeping favorite toys or beds in the right spot. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and exercise, and I’m always alert to signs of stress or discomfort. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space where animals can relax and feel at ease. I keep a regular routine and make sure all pets have plenty of room to play, nap, and feel at home. Since I have a friendly Goldendoodle, pets who stay with me will also have a built-in playmate—unless they prefer solo time, in which case I provide quiet areas just for them. I send regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away.

Amy P.
“It is my genuine pleasure to recommend Amy for any position in pet care. She is a warm, nurturing soul by nature, and her love for animals is evident in every interaction I’ve witnessed. Whether she’s caring for her own pets or looking after someone else’s, Amy approaches each animal with patience, gentleness, and a deep sense of responsibility. What stands out most about Amy is not only her attentiveness, but also her willingness to learn and adapt. She doesn’t just go through the motions—she takes the time to understand each animal’s unique personality, needs, and quirks. I’ve seen her research new techniques, ask questions, and go the extra mile to make sure every pet in her care feels safe and loved. I would entrust Amy with any of my animals without hesitation. She has both the heart and the work ethic to excel in this field, and I know she will bring warmth, reliability, and dedication to any pet care role she takes on. Sincerely, Maggie Holliday”

Keandra went above and beyond to make sure my dog had a good time. She also was very flexible with pickup/drop off times which was helpful since I had a flight early in the morning. She also gave my dog a free shower and made sure he got plenty of exercise and play time with her dogs. 100% would recommend Keandra
Chris, Erika and family made my Ellie part of their family during my 2-week trip to Africa. I could travel across the world knowing that my Ellie was in good hands. They communicated frequently and sent pictures throughout the 2 weeks. Being about 18 months old, Ellie needs to burn off a lot of energy and it was blistering hot and humid while I was gone. But they took Ellie on a good walk early every morning before the heat hit. If you want your dog to feel like they are in a home away from home, a stay with Chris, Erika and family will do just that. Thank you for your attentive care that allowed me to thoroughly enjoy my trip abroad.
sarah was very sweet and gave updates about my baby girl. she followed our instructions for care well and harley came back a happy and tired girl. we booked last minute but she was very accommodating for us. if you need care in the normal / blooomington area, reach out and see if she’s available. :)
Laney was absolutely amazing with my senior Chihuahua, Pixie! My little one can be quite a handful because she’s older, needs special care, and doesn’t always warm up to new people easily. But Laney was incredibly patient, gentle, and attentive from the very beginning. Laney proved her dedication to make sure Pixie and I were comfortable from the start. We chatted during a video call and arranged an in person meet up from there. Laney took the time to understand my Pixie’s unique needs and daily routine. Laney sent me regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear that Laney truly loves animals and has experience with senior pets. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and I will not hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Laney to anyone looking for compassionate, reliable care!
Madison and Jason are lifesavers. I was traveling to Bloomington for a work meeting and unexpectedly needed to have my dog in tow. They agreed to dog sit for a few hours while I was occupied with my work call. They sent me so many pics in only the few hours that they watched Chevy, and I could tell he was very comfortable with them. 5/5
