Dog Walkers in Borden, IN

About: I've been surrounded by dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, frogs and fish for 35+ years. I've raised, house-trained, walked, entertained and loved a variety of dogs and cats my entire life. I never get tired of these sweet creatures! I have experience with all dogs and cats, regardless of age, breed or temperament. As I'm now only working part-time providing early intervention services for children, and am self-employed, I have a great deal of flexibility to care for your dogs and cats. I'm available for drop-ins to feed, play with and care for your sweet pets as needed - throughout the day and night - as well as dog-walking, as it fits into your schedule. I've spent the last 20+ years working as a teacher and developmental therapist, educating children who have developmental delays and disabilities. Now, I've decided to focus additionally on my love of animals. Since I was a small child, I've adored pets, and have many years of experience caring for a variety of them. I'm very patient and appreciative of each animal's personality. I currently have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own, and have used this service as a customer as well, so I can understand your point of view as "parents".

“We have previously used Penny for our dogs, one is our old guy, blind and needs special assistance. She is so kind and caring with him, sends pics as well. She goes above and beyond! Will for sure be using her again.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, usually multiple at a time, all shapes and sizes. Your pup will receive top-tier, attentive care with your instructions followed to the letter. Beyond that, expect plenty of walks, play sessions, cuddles, and adventures. I genuinely love dogs and treat every pet like my own. As a student, I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate almost any timing mornings, evenings, weekends, you name it. I work around your needs and will always make your pet my top priority. I have a friendly dog at home who loves meeting new friends! When watching pets in your home, you can expect to come back to everything exactly as you left it, if not a little cleaner. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and care.

About: I have had cats and dogs all my life. Currently I have thirteen fur/feather babies. Two cats, one Australian shepherd and ten chickens. My pup just turned a year old so I have more knowledge with younger pups. Can't wait to meet your fur babies! I am a stay at home mom and have flexible availability. I can be there for your fur babies practically whenever you need me! I have better weekday availability, while weekends require planning ahead. Whether you need me to walk your dog, come over to ease their anxiety or simply let them out to potty, I can meet all their needs. Or if you have a high energy dog like my Aussie, I can get some of that energy out by playing with them while you are at work.

“Reliable and awesome with our big dogs!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, so taking care of them truly feels second nature to me. I’m calm, and patient and I take the time to figure out what each dog needs to feel relaxed and happy. I treat every dog I watch like they’re mine, giving them the same care and attention I give my own. I can help puppies get settled and comfortable in a new environment, and I give senior dogs the extra care and love they need. I recently moved into a house with a secure yard, so dogs staying with me have access to a safe outdoor space. Pet care is already apart of my daily routine. I take care of my own dog by feeding her, taking her out for long walks, and giving her plenty of attention. I love spending time with animals and making sure they’re well cared for. I make sure every pet in my care feels safe and comfortable weather in my home or theirs. I pay attention to their personality and what they need and make a happy space for them while there owners are away.

“Eleanor is a staple of my Zeke dog’s care team. She has been walking him every week for over a year (and clearly demonstrates patience with me). Eleanor is dedicated, reliable, communicative and repeatedly steps up to help as her schedule allows. Eleanor provides invaluable care and I’m happy for those reading this to have found her!”

About: I have always been a natural animal lover and genuinely enjoy spending time caring for pets of all kinds. I have regularly helped friends, family, and neighbors with pet sitting, drop-in visits, feeding, walking, and giving lots of attention and love while they’re away. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone you trust. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs and personality. Whether your pet is high-energy and loves long walks or prefers a calm environment and extra snuggles, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I am happy to provide updates, photos, and consistent communication so you always have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make your life easier and ensure your pet feels loved every step of the way. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide reliable care throughout the week. I’m available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits. I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine and can accommodate multiple check-ins per day if needed. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I know it takes trust to leave your pet in someone else’s care and I do not take that responsibility lightly. I take time to understand your pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions before care begins. During visits, I ensure doors are secure, food and water are refreshed, and the environment is kept clean. I provide a calm, low-stress environment and treat your home and pet with respect and care.

“Amazing Job!!”

About: I've lived with and taken care of dogs my entire life. Trained my current dog Frodo since he was puppy. Got him to get along with cat siblings too! I'm currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets needs. I'm willing to spare as much time as I can for the pets. While I cant house any pets at my own house due to hyper (but friendly!) pets, but I intend to treat every pet and house as my own.

About: I have always loved animals and have grown up with at least one dog or cat at the house, I currently have 3 dogs and 3 cats. I have been dogsitting for about 3 years and have experience with dogs ranging from small (like toy breeds) to large breeds (such as mastiffs) . I usually send pictures of your pet having fun on walks or enjoying outside. I have taken care of animals that need medication either orally or through injection. I have taken care of dogs ranging from a year to 15 years old. I strive to give your pet the best experience and can't wait to work for you. I am currently working and have the availability to be work from home. Excited to get to know you and your amazing pet or pets. I treat the pets like my own. I keep the care instructions, while trying to keep the difference to a minimum to keep the pets at ease.

About: I have been taking care of pets for over 2 years. I love all pets no matter what type! I understand that pets are family and require the best care! My current work schedule allows for me to be off in the summer! I want to use that time to take care of pets! I love my dogs like family and I will yours too! I can take care of your pet the way you need me to. I have experience with walking, crating, or letting dogs out in the yard. Whatever your needs are, I can deliver.

About: I've grown up around animals my whole life and not only do I take care of animals of my own I've taken care of friends' animals as well. I have experience working with animals of all ages and sizes as I currently have 9 year old Great Danes who I've helped raise since they were puppies. I have cared for rabbits, hamsters, and even frogs. With my dogs I have experience managing medications and special diets. I wake up every day with my Great Danes and hamster so daily pet care is just a part of what I do. I have a flexible schedule and am happy to take care of pets any day of the week. I will follow your instructions to ensure each pet is cared for in the way they are familiar. I can take them on walks, give them play time inside or out and lots of cuddles.

About: I've had dogs, cats, and rabbits but have also cared for guinea pigs, turtles and fish. Caring for your pet the way you do is most important. I am available most days and times. My open availability leaves you with piece of mind knowing there's someone that can help any time of the day. I have a big yard and will be spending lots of time outside. Really big on taking hikes, and playing ball. Staying hydrated will also be priority.non smoker.

“Alli is great! She treated my baby like her own and I fully trusted her! She is my go-to from now on! Thank you Alli!!!”

About: I treat every animal like family and I always aim to leave tails wagging and hearts at ease. With over 9 years of hands-on experience caring for everything from gentle giants like Great Danes to tiny companions like hamsters and frogs, I bring dependable, loving, and knowledgeable care to every pet I meet. I specialize in senior and special-needs pets, including medication administration and mobility support, and I’m confident handling everything from playful puppies to geriatric animals. Pet care has been in my daily routine since childhood, with myself having two senior Great Danes. I am available all weekdays and weekends from any time in the morning to any time at night I am comfortable taking your dog out on a leash if you don’t have a fenced in yard to let your dog out in. I am a quick learner and know how to administer medication. I have nine years of experience handling and caring for two Great Danes. I love to play and cuddle with animals so they get individualized care and attention.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was a kid—everything from dogs and cats to livestock, thanks to 10 years in 4-H. That hands-on experience taught me not just how to love animals, but how to read their behavior, keep them safe, and give them the structure they thrive on. I now have a pug named Otis (a total goofball), and I know firsthand how important it is to trust the person watching your pet. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, calm energy, and genuine love for every animal I care for—like they’re my own. I take the time to get to know each pet’s routine, quirks, and comfort zones to make sure they’re not just cared for, but actually happy while you’re away. I’m currently in college and working part-time, which gives me a lot of flexibility in my schedule. Pet care fits into my daily life really naturally—I love being active, I’m often out walking anyway, and spending time with animals is something that genuinely brings me joy. I’m looking to grow this into a consistent side hustle that doesn’t feel like work—because caring for pets never has. Whether it’s quick drop-ins, long walks, or overnight stays, I make time for each booking and treat every pet like they’re my own. This isn’t just extra income—it’s something I’m committed to doing well. I’ll be caring for your pet in their own home, where they feel safest and most comfortable. I always follow your instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding, meds, or just how they like to be tucked in. I treat every pet like family and make sure they’re calm, happy, and cared for while you’re away. You can count on me to keep your home clean and your pet in great hands.

About: Louisville’s own Doctor Doolittle! I absolutely love animals and understand that they are part of the family. I have taken care of an array of pets other than cats and dogs including rabbits, hamsters, and little fishy friends. Pets needing specialty care are my specialty! I have experience with puppies who are potty training, pregnant dogs, dogs with anxiety, dogs needing medications, and dogs recovering from surgery. I want to make sure their needs are met first and that they feel secure in their own environments. I do work a full time job, but outside of my 8 hours per day, I am fully committed to taking care of dogs at any time, day or night. Walks, potty breaks, before or after work, checking in on my lunch break, etc. Whatever works for me! Even if they just need someone to come over and give a few scratches. As a pet sitter, I prefer making house calls and coming to you at your convenience. These services also include tidying up, sweeping floors, #2 yard clean up, and more.
