Hanna was absolutely amazing with our dogs, Cooper and Zola, this weekend! From the start, she was incredibly kind, sweet, and genuinely caring, you can tell she truly loves what she does. She walked them multiple times and kept us completely at ease with frequent, detailed updates and the best pictures. Her communication was top-notch, and it meant so much to know exactly how they were doing while we were away. Cooper and Zola were clearly happy, well cared for, and loved every minute with her. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Hanna went above and beyond, and we will 100% be booking with her for all of our future needs. Highly, highly recommend! 🐾

Gillian did great caring for my dog and 4 cats over night. They were all very comfortable with her and allowed for me to enjoy my night away from home.

About: I have been around all sorts of animals my whole life and I have always helped take care of them. I am able to properly feed, exercise and care for any of your dog needs. I have also been caring for horses and learning about animal needs while working at the horse barn. I’m currently a student at IU Northwest and working at a horse barn, but that doesn’t mean that your pet isn’t one of my top priorities. I have mornings free as well as most afternoons. While I take care of your pet I hope to keep a safe and happy environment for your pet. If you let me know of any needs that your animal has. I will ensure that they receive the best care that I can give them.

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience working as a veterinary assistant along with my genuine love for animals. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and overall well-being. I have experience helping with feeding routines, exercise, medications, basic grooming, and providing calm, patient care for both energetic pets and older animals who may need extra attention. I understand how important consistency and trust are for pets, so I work hard to keep them comfortable and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m also very dependable, organized, and communicative. I make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already have a pretty busy schedule balancing college, workouts/practices, and everything else going on. Since I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant before, taking care of animals has become second nature to me. I usually build pet care into my mornings and evenings with feeding, walks or playtime, cleaning up, and just making sure they’re getting attention and affection throughout the day. During the week, I also make time for things like washing bedding or toys, restocking supplies, and keeping up with overall health and wellness. Even when life gets hectic with school, stunt, lifting, or work, I see pet care as something that helps me slow down a little and brings comfort and consistency to my routine. I care for pets by making sure they stay comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine as much as possible. In my home and in a client’s home, I focus on feeding schedules, fresh water, potty breaks or litter box cleaning, exercise, playtime, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure the environment stays clean and stress-free for them. Because I have experience working as a veterinary assistant, I pay close attention to animal behavior and health, including monitoring for changes in mood, appetite, or energy levels. I am comfortable helping with basic grooming, administering some medications if needed, and following any specific instructions the owner provides. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I also respect the home by keeping everything tidy, following routines carefully, and sending updates or photos so owners feel reassured while they are away.

Juliana was beyond great. She took care of my dog as if it were one of her own. My flight got canceled, and she happily took care of the dog for two more days. I don't know what I would have done without her help. I highly recommend her to others.

Samantha was amazing! She took such great care of all our pets. Our dog was so relaxed when we got home. This was also a last minute booking since our sitter bailed on us and she really saved the day. She sent lots of updates and pics too so we could see all our babies being well care for. We’ll absolutely use her service in the future.

About: I have been around all sorts of animals since I was a baby. I had a German shepherd growing up. Now I own a hound mix who is very energetic and keeps me busy which I like. While I was in college I worked at my teams stable and took care of my coaches horses, chickens, and her donkey. Since I own a dog of my own, pet care is in my every day life. I am a server at Dante’s house of pizza. Even with my busy work schedule I still have plenty of time to take my own dog to the park, walk him, and play with him. I want to share my love by taking care of other peoples animals. I can ensure them that their furry friends will be safe in my care. My dog’s name is Gino and he loves being outdoors whenever we can be. He loves going on walks with other dogs. He is really happy when I take him to my friend’s house to play with their dogs. My dog is very spoiled and gets to snuggle up with me in bed. I am responsible to take him to the vet when he needs his yearly check up. I make sure he is well groomed and well fed.

About: Hello, I'm Katie! I helped my mom run a cat rescue for over 8 years (that includes waking up every 2 hours to bottle feed, giving medication, handling moody kitties, cleaning up constant messes, etc). Since then, I've been trusted to pet sit for friends, coworkers, and family members. I have more experience house sitting with cats than dogs, but I love all pets equally and would be so happy to meet them! I offer overnight stays/house sitting, drop-ins, and dog walking. I am currently pet sitting full time. I am available on weekdays and weekends however early or late as needed, and for as many drop-ins as needed. My schedule is very flexible! The care and safety of your pet is the most important thing to me. I make sure to keep human food out of reach along with plastic bags, cords, or other potentially harmful items. I always try to keep pets entertained, happy, and out of trouble. I am a very clean person and will never leave a mess behind, I can assure your home will be well looked after. I can provide photo or text updates as often as needed!
