Brenley was the first sitter ever that Finley took to. He has always been very guarded and wouldn’t open up or trust others. Brenley sent pictures everyday and let me know he was doing. I will definitely book her again for any future trips!

Abigail was great! She watched our dog Luna for a few days while we were out of town and she was respectful of our house and also followed Lunas feeding schedule, dog park time and other request. I’d trust her for any future stays for sure!! Thanks again!

Super sitter! Always asks questions, pays great attention to the dogs, and even though I had nothing, always asks what he can improve on. My dogs enjoyed their time with him during a full day of house sitting, and he was very attentive and flexible with our schedule.

Beth was very communicative and worked with our older dogs to accommodate both of their needs (our little one doesn’t love walks but the big one loves and needs them.) During the meet and greet, she noted even little things, like where the dog beds are/where they like to sleep. I definitely plan to ask Beth back.

Wendy was absolutely amazing with my two dogs! From the moment we met, I could tell she truly cared about their comfort and happiness. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Both of my pups seemed so relaxed and happy when I got home—it was clear they were well cared for and given lots of love and attention. I’m so grateful to have found someone so reliable, kind, and attentive. I’ll definitely be booking with Wendy again!

About: I have taught my dog multiple tricks and continue working on separation anxiety and reactivity. Since getting my dog I have learned a great deal about dog food, behavior, and training. I've always had love for animals, and have had a dog in the house since I was 4 years old ranging from small dogs too big dogs. Growing up I would binge animal planet and had hopes of being a veterinarian. Now as an adult, I have had Midas for 3 years. I treat every new dog I meet with respect, and of course love. I've learned to be able to adapt my energy and interactions with different dogs depending on their personality. I would love the opportunity to be of service to you and your lovely fur-baby! I will be un-employed from my seasonal lawn and landscaping job starting December 12th. I will be returning to that job sometime April 1st. I also plan on starting an odd jobs side hustle during the winter months. So if i become too busy from odd jobs I will adjust my availability accordingly and stay available for constant communication to ensure no scheduling conflicts. Christmas and new years (December 22nd- January 2) will be limited availability. February 14-21 i will be on a trip to Arizona. I take my dog for a jog every morning, at least one walk, to our little dog park at the apartment two times per day, and the big dog park a couple of times per week. We go on adventures together and explore different walking paths and nature trails. We feed him once a day and ensure he does a series of tricks and waits for the "ok" command before he can eat. We feed him a three way mix of fresh pet, Dr. Harveys, Meats, and Kibble. I intend to provide a healthy and fulfilled life full of play and love for my dog, and I will treat your dog the same.

About: I have been around so many dogs. Let me say they somehow are always attached to me. I always have to usually babysit my puppy everyday. How I will work is to make sure your baby’s are safe and healthy. I wanna make sure your little fur ball is getting the care it needs. I wanna do this because dogs have such a huge place in my heart. They mean so much to me. I’m currently a senior in high school, but I am open to discuss and fit in my time to take care of your pup. I get off school at 1:15pm if you need me on a school day. Weekends would be best though! In the moment due to having a German Shepherd puppy and still being in school. My home probably won’t be the best space for your little fur baby.

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I have always had at least one cat, and had dogs for 17 years of my life. I have also taken care of family and friends’ pets while they are out of town plenty of times. I am available all day every day for any kind of pet needs, and I can house cats overnight, however, I am unable to house dogs overnight. I am within walking distance of a dog park, and can bring animals inside or outside, whichever their needs are. I can also keep and transfer pets inside crates as needed.

Deborah is outstanding! She took great care of our puppy, sent pictures several times a day. My wife loved that. We totally felt good leaving our baby with her. Deborah allowed us to have a relaxing trip without worry. Max bonded with her from the beginning and I think was sad when Deborah left. I would recommend her totally.

About: I’ve been caring for my mom’s dogs, a German Shepherd (Kiera) and a Pomeranian (Rocco), for over 12 years, along with helping care for her previous pets. This experience has given me hands-on knowledge with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and behavior changes, and I provide patient, consistent care. I prioritize safety, structure, and making each dog feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m available anytime Sunday through Tuesday. Wednesday through Friday, I’m available after 5:30 PM, and on Saturdays after 2:30 PM. I work during the day midweek but am happy to provide reliable evening care, including drop-ins, walks, and overnight house sitting. Please feel free to message me with any scheduling questions. I’m always happy to help! I primarily provide care in the client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all care instructions carefully, maintain a safe and clean space, and provide attentive, reliable care while keeping owners informed.

About: I have experience taking care of dogs when my friends travel. I usually keep them at my place but since I am renting apartment now can’t have them stay overnight. I make sure that your pets are well taken care off and won’t leave them out of site when walking them. I had cats as pets but I am more a dog person. I love dogs and I think they are the most loving pet and care about you. I am doing research in microbiology at IU and I pretty good at finishing all my task at time. If something urgent or something unexpected happen I can be pretty flexible with my work. I promise I will take good care of your loved once’s as my own. My work schedule is flexible enough to allow consistent walks, feeding, enrichment, and companionship, so pet care fits smoothly into my daily routine. During the week, I build in regular breaks for walks and enrichment, and on weekends I’m able to offer longer walks, play sessions, and extra one-on-one time. I keep a structured but flexible routine, which allows me to adapt to each pet’s needs while making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. In my home or a client’s home, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, comfort, and plenty of attention. I provide regular updates and make sure pets feel relaxed and cared for.

Sara stayed at my house with my labrador for 11 days! She was wonderful! She sent daily pictures and updates. My dog loves to play fetch and go on long walks, and by the looks of the pictures and videos, he was not lacking in either! Sara even went above and beyond caring for my dog. She watered my plants, took out the garbage and brought in the mail. I returned home to a house in order and a happy dog! I highly recommend Sara and will use her again!

Katie went absolutely above and beyond for us when we were gone for a few days. From the beginning meet and greet, I felt extremely comfortable having her stay with us from the way she interacted with our pack of 3 large dogs, and just how she interacted with us too. Our dogs can be a lot and she handled them amazingly. During our trip, Katie sent us the perfect amount of updates and pictures (which she is cognizant to ask during the meet and greet!), and the pictures were all incredible. Our dogs looked so happy and playful and adorable! I could tell they were having a blast with her ❤️. Katie was also super responsive to my texts which I very much appreciated - it let me know she was here and very active with our pups! Katie left the house far cleaner than when we left too, making the day after a long trip so easy. Katie is truly a star sitter that has a wonderful heart for people and animals, takes her role very seriously, and I would use her again without hesitation.
