About: Hi! My name is Lynette, and I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. One thing that makes me a great dog walker is that I love being active. I have a daily step goal that I work toward, so long walks are something I truly enjoy not something I rush through. Taking dogs on walks makes reaching that goal even more enjoyable, and I love giving them the exercise, attention, and outdoor time they deserve. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities and am always willing to adapt to their individual needs. Whether your dog enjoys a leisurely stroll, an energetic walk, or extra playtime, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I would love the opportunity to spend time with your furry friend and make their walks the highlight of their day! I start every morning with a walk, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy staying active and have a daily step goal, which means I genuinely look forward to spending time walking and caring for dogs. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I can dedicate time throughout the week to ensure pets get the exercise, attention, and care they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, maintain their normal routine, and make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, water, and care. I am attentive on walks, keep dogs securely leashed, and always prioritize their well-being. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to create a positive, stress-free experience for both pets and owners.

About: I am a huge dog lover! My 7 year old lab/pit mix Conway is my rock and best friend. I care for all dogs like I care for Conway. I have had a dog all of my life, so I am very comfortable with pet care of all types. I am an experienced dog-walker as well and have cared for friends' and neighbors' pets for many years. Also, I am working on Conway's summer body and we are up to 3 mile walks a day. I am not saying that your dog needs all three miles but I am up for doing the long walks, if needed. I work from home every day. I have essentially wide open availability (minus some scattered meetings that will be scheduled ahead). I can care for your pet on any week day or weekend. Day or night. *Unfortunately, I do not have any pet care for my own dog. At this time, I will have to bring him with me for any house sitting opportunity. I am happy to set up any meet and greet.* I am caring and respectful of the owner's wishes. Having a dog of my own, I know how important it is for owners to ensure that they are leaving their fur babies home with somebody that cares and they trust. If an owner has specific directions of care, I will follow those to the T.

About: I’ve spent most of my life rescuing and transporting animals with mother via her company , especially cats and dogs, across America. From a young age, I’ve always had pets, and caring for them has been a central part of my life. My passion for animals is driven by my deep compassion and the desire to give every animal a better chance at life. Over the years, I’ve worked hard to transport animals to their forever homes, and I’ve always approached my work with kindness, patience, and a genuine love for all cpets . My caring nature and dedication to their well-being fuel everything I do in this mission. Hello I'm Abigail I currently work part time fluctuating hours , that's why I asked for 3 days in the advice but I am available most times I'm available in the morning , evening , and overnight and Im off weekends at this point. Having animals most of my life, I'm every comfortable cleaning up after both cats and dogs. Also I'm very comfortable giving oral medicine to both. I love taking walks with dogs, also, I plan on investing in a cat stroller to take your feline friends with us!

About: I have been taking care of my family goldendoodle since my sixth birthday. He is my best friend and I love spending time with him. He gets along great with other dogs in our extended family and is extremely friendly with people. I have been trusted with several dogs and can assure you I will love on your dogs and keep them well taken care of! I’m looking into a part time nanny position but my hours are flexible currently. My weekends are guaranteed to be open for overnight or daytime care! I have a sweet 13 year old mini golden doodle who gets along great with all kinds of dogs. I am also able to provide care in your home if you’re uncomfortable with other dogs around yours. I love to go on walks on the trails around my house, play fetch in football fields, and go to dog parks nearby. You can rely on me to follow your dogs feeding/crate schedule as well as ensure they are getting exercise!

About: I grew up with dogs, cats, and other exotic pets. I enjoy spending time and caring for animals, I try to keep them entertained or just relaxed. I often volunteer at IndyHumane with their dog day out program. I don’t have weekend availability due to my part time job. So throughout the week I have lots of time. I am available Monday afternoons through Thursdays. When caring for pets in a client’s home, the priority shifts to maintaining their established environment to reduce stress. This includes following precise instructions for feeding, administering medication, and adhering to their regular walking schedules, while providing plenty of companionship and updates to the owner.

About: Hi! I signed up for Rover because I love dogs and my daughter loves all animals and wants to be a vet when she grows up! My children are 4 and 6 and we are not ready to get a dog of our own but would love to spend time loving on others dogs until we are ready to make the leap ourself! I work from home and will be able to spend lots of time with your dog and my children will add in the playful side for some great exercise! I currently work from home and having young kids means we wake up early and have tons of flexibility for multiple walks and play time! Typical pet care for us means lots of rubs and talking while enjoying some cuddles and walks. We like to relax and have some fun at the same time.

I am not sure where to even start Melanie is absolutely amazing. She didn’t meet and greet with my dog. It went great, but when I left and she had to do it all alone to walk my dog, he was very skeptical and was in defense mode. She was very patient with him and earned his trust, she went out her way to get to know Maverick. She updated pictures every day. She kept me updated. She even went above and beyond to give the guinea pig that I have water. I am very thankful for her and how patient she was with, not only my dog, but with me. She is very understanding and takes everything into consideration. I will make sure I always pick her in advance to watch Maverick. To see Maverick grow with her was absolutely amazing just shows her character. This was my first time ever leaving my dog alone without me and I did not know how bad his separation anxiety was until this situation but Melanie handled the situation with love and care as if Maverick was her own and that’s all I can ask for if I could give her 10 stars I would!!!!

Whether you need someone to administer medicine or have someone play with your energetic one, I'm your sitter. I understand that some loved ones need patient and reassurance whether it's the 1st time or the 12th time. Just know your fluffy guy or girl is safe with me! I'm currently free for the most of the summer since I'm a teacher. I work part time on Saturdays at another job. I can look after your fluffy one during most days and times. I provide drop-in visits for your fluffy one. This can include walking, play time, feeding, medicine intake, potty break, clean ups, litter box cleaning, etc. My visits can range from 15 minutes to 1 hour - just depends on your fluffy one's needs. Clear instructions are always followed and I can provide fast responses if need be.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and hands-on experience with all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets needing gentle, specialized care. I’m skilled in basic puppy training, administering medications, and keeping routines consistent. I’m also dependable, patient, and always focused on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I balance my studies with pet sitting by planning my schedule carefully around walks, feedings, and playtime. Caring for animals gives me a meaningful break from school, and I genuinely enjoy the responsibility. It keeps me active, focused, and connected to something I truly love doing. I care for pets by sticking closely to their routine, whether in my home or the client’s. I make sure they’re fed on time, have clean water, get daily walks or playtime, and receive lots of love and attention. I’m comfortable administering medications, cleaning litter boxes, and keeping their space clean. In my home, I create a safe, cozy, and pet-friendly environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I take pet care seriously and treat every animal like they’re part of my own family.
