About: Hi! My name is Susannah, and I'm a 24-year-old animal lover living in Indianapolis with my husky and orange cat. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all sizes and personalities. In addition to caring for my own pets every day, I regularly help care for my family's three large dogs and two cats, so I'm comfortable with both dogs and cats, including larger breeds. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, pet sitting, and cat care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, exploring outside, or simply relaxing with company, I'll tailor my care to their individual needs and routine. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide reliable, attentive care. I'm happy to accommodate your pet's routine as much as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medication (if needed and instructed), and lots of attention and affection. Your pet's safety and happiness are my top priorities. I take time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. I'll make sure they receive plenty of exercise, fresh water, meals on schedule, bathroom breaks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I strive to create a calm, positive environment so your pet feels comfortable and secure while you're away.

About: I am a dog mom through and through! Growing up in the country we had many dogs of all breeds I enjoyed. Now I am the proud mom to two mini dachshunds who love to hike and nap with me. I have watched many friends dogs and cats throughout the last couple years. Connecting with new animals brings me happiness plus I know how hard it is to find a trusted pet sitter for your animals. I want to be the best fit for your fur babies so let's connect! I am available part time for pet sitting. Weekends are more open than week days at this moment. I will only accept work I can fully dedicate my time and energy to. I always provide the safest transportation if needed. I carry dog treats, water, poop bags, and leash with me in my SUV. Plenty of room for a dog of any size. When visiting your home I will respect your privacy and home. I promise to leave all areas as clean as they were when I arrived. I will always double check locks, doors and the animals needs before exiting.

“Sara has become a great addition to Gus’s hooman friends! Gus looks forward to her visits 😀”

About: I have had pets my entire life. From dogs and cats, to reptiles, fish and rodents! I’m very good at training. I have been caring for pets since I was 10 years old, starting with an elderly ladies puppy cocker spaniel. I’m also very patient, and I love activities like walking, and playing. I currently have mornings from 6am-4pm available. I have night classes from 5pm-11pm Monday-Thursday. My weekends are available with open availability being Friday-Sunday I have a fenced in yard, with one dog, one cat, and one Betta! We have a feeding schedule, we take walks, and so mentally stimulating activities such as training and puzzles

About: I was born with pets, cats and dogs. My best friend, a vet tech, has trusted me with her elderly husky and the 2 young ones. All adopted! I loved it so I adopted my own Husky, Kingston (that’s him in my photo). I know training is for the pet AND the human. Exercise, affection, and discipline are keys for a happy pet life, not aggression or cruelty. Pet health and grooming are second nature to me, and I have access to a licensed veterinary opinion in case of emergencies. Ask me anything if concerned, I want to be friends with your fur babies! I work 8 hour days during the week, off by 5. That leaves my availability at evenings and weekends for now. Pet has a LOT of energy? We’re gonna burn it! I go for walks 30 minutes twice daily, morning and evening. Feeding times are specific to the dog so I communicate with you on their routine so they can continue it and still fit in at puppy daycare! I have a two story duplex in Irvington, where I’m surrounded by parks and the Pleasant Run Trail. Pet has a LOT of energy? We’re gonna burn it! I go for walks since the husky boy needs it, and he is trained and friendly and likes to play with friends if allowed so he’s as excited as I am! We take 30 minute walks twice daily, morning and evening. We go to the the dog park (broad ripple or clay terrace) on Sundays. Feeding whenever convenient for the pet I’m watching, some dietetic pets need a strict timeline so we stick to that. Playtime when they are ready to play, but also an organized routine of games and training during that time. Whether I come to you or they come to me, the environment and schedule is pet friendly.

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and enjoy making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and responsible, and I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. My experience with pets includes caring for dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, and other small animals, including feeding, walks, playtime, giving lots of attention, and keeping their environment clean and comfortable. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and any special instructions you provide. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play, enjoys a relaxing cuddle, or needs a little extra patience to feel comfortable around someone new, I’ll take the time to get to know them and make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m also happy to keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Feline drop-in care fits incredibly well into my daily routine because cats naturally appreciate structured, predictable visits rather than round-the-clock supervision. Because I focus strictly on non-live-in services, I can easily coordinate my schedule to arrive at your home during your cat's preferred morning or evening feeding windows. This setup allows me to give your cat my completely undivided attention for essential routine tasks, fresh food, and dedicated playtime, while comfortably balancing my other daytime dog walking and professional commitments. I know that cats thrive on consistency and familiarity. During each drop-in visit to your home, my priority is keeping your cat safe, relaxed, and happy by focusing on three main areas: Routine & Health Maintenance Fresh Food & Water: Feeding exactly according to your instructions and washing bowls daily to prevent bacteria. Meticulous Litter Box Care: Scooping the litter box during every single visit and sweeping up any tracking around the box. Medication Administration: Safely administering any necessary pills, supplements, or specialized care your cat requires. Affection & Companionship Respecting Their Boundaries: Letting your cat set the pace—whether they want immediate head scratches or prefer to observe me from a safe distance. Interactive Play & Socialization: Engaging energetic cats with wand toys, lasers, or catnip to keep them stimulated.Comforting Presence: Spending quiet time in the room for shy or independent cats so they never feel entirely alone. Communication & Home Security Daily Updates: Sending you a detailed text update alongside photos or videos of your cat during every visit so you have total peace of mind.Basic Home Care: Bringing in mail/packages, watering plants, taking out the trash, and adjusting lights so your home looks active and secure.

About: I have been responsible for dogs for most of my life. I absolutely LOVE dogs. I have loved and cared for every breed of dog from a 4 lb teacup chihuahua to my now 80+ lb St. berdoodle, Luca. I currently work from home, so I’ll always be with your fur baby, and my Luca. I have the flexibility to potty breaks as needed and can accommodate just about any routine needed to make your dogs stay comfortable! I unfortunately do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a screened in porch, Luca and I hang out on the porch pretty often to get the fresh air he loves. Potty breaks will all be leashed, and weather permitting we can walk down to the dog park for some additional fun! Luca has been coined the “gentle giant” from his sitter we met from Rover. He will tire your dog out wanting to play, but no fear, nothing but nice, just LOVES to run and play - with any size friends!

“Jessica did a wonderful job taking care of our dog while we were away. We highly recommend her!”

About: When I was a kid, I helped my grandfather on his horse farm and would take care of the barn cats. Since then, I have lived in a 3 cat household where two of the cats did not get along and created a schedule so they could both be happy. I can bathe a pet myself if needed, as I have done this for my cat Juniper. My grandparents have two smaller dogs Ginger and Cleo I have cared for for a few days. We have fun taking walks and exploring nature. For bigger dogs, when I was in high school, I would help with the neighbors' Bernese mountain dog Abby, and I have spent a lot of time with my aunt A's doodle Bruno. I have also spent time with medium size dogs, as my aunt B has two pitbull mixes, that are very affectionate and love the dog park. I know that all dogs have different needs and I try to met them. This means that with my uncle’s older pup we won’t do any jogging, but with my aunt’s younger doodle we will definitely jog a bit. I work in education and currently have my days free to spend with furry friends. This means I can be flexible when it comes to pet sitting and spending the night. I am a very friendly, clean, and organized person and I’ll make sure that if I am coming over to your home that food is served and any accidents are cleaned up. As long as you give me a list of what needs to happen for your furry friend, I’ll make sure it gets done. From crating your pup to tricking your pet to take their medication For pups, I will ensure they’ll get the amount of walks needed a day, as well as some outdoor playtime with whatever games they like to play. I will make sure that there is no poop left on our path and check to make sure there isn't anything concerning. Plus, I will feed them according to their schedule. For cats, I will ensure that they get two square meals a day and that their water is never empty. I will also pet and play with them as much as they desire because some cats are more recluse than others. I will also scoop out their litter box, and clean out the litter box if needed

About: I have professional experience working in veterinary medicine and providing compassionate, attentive care to animals with a wide range of personalities and needs. Through my experience, I have developed skills in recognizing changes in behavior, safely handling pets, administering medications when directed, monitoring overall health and comfort, and helping reduce stress during care. I’m comfortable caring for energetic pets, senior pets, and animals that may need extra patience or attention. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important trust, communication, and consistency are. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in experienced and caring hands. I work full-time Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM–6:00 PM, with Thursdays and weekends off, but I still make time to provide dependable pet care around my schedule. I’m available for morning drop-ins, evening visits, overnight care when planned in advance, and have greater flexibility on Thursdays and weekends for longer visits, walks, and quality time. I understand how important routines are for pets and will work with owners to make sure their pets receive consistent, attentive care that fits their needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. With my background in veterinary medicine and hands-on animal care experience, I pay close attention to behavior, routines, and any signs that a pet may be stressed or uncomfortable. I believe trust is built through communication, consistency, and treating every animal with patience and respect. I work to create a calm, safe, and positive environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away, and I provide updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and experienced hands.

About: I’ve had 2 pups for over a decade. Bonzo is my first born, a 12yr old Mini Aussie. He’s a trip and great with my kids. Recently lost my 15yr old Sheba Inu/German Shepherd mix. Akai was the love of my life. Not so great with the kids when they became mobile. We had a couple warning bites when the kids were toddlers. Everyone said to get rid of him, but I wouldn’t even consider it. Akai was telling the kids “he doesn’t like that” and the kids needed to learn to respect that. I understand and respect pups, sometimes better than people. I can try to teach the basics to a pup, but definitely not a dog trainer. I’ve considered getting another pup, but Akai was one of a kind. Instead I thought I could share my extra puppy love with other pups. I’m a single mom with two school age kids. So I am available during school hours, 8am-1pm. During the summer my schedule will vary, but mostly available every day of the week. My pup is one of the kids. I give him just as much love and attention as my kids. We have a fenced in backyard and quiet street for walks, if I decide to offer daycare or boarding.

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for many years. I have provided pet sitting services for over 15 years and was a devoted dog owner for 15 years, giving me firsthand experience with every stage of a pet's life.Since 2018, I have been actively involved in fostering, caring for animals with a wide range of needs and personalities. My experience includes senior dogs, small breeds, cats, puppies, newborns, nursing mothers, and pets requiring medical attention or specialized care. Through fostering and pet sitting, I have become comfortable administering medications, monitoring health concerns, and providing extra patience and support to pets who need it most.What sets me apart is my ability to adapt to each pet's individual needs while treating them like family. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, a senior needing extra comfort, or recovering from a medical issue, I provide attentive, compassionate care that gives both pets and owners peace of mind. 🐾 Pet care is my primary focus, so I have a very open and flexible schedule. I do not work outside the home, which allows me to be available throughout the day for feedings, medication schedules, playtime, and individualized attention. My daily routine is already centered around caring for foster animals, so I am accustomed to maintaining consistent feeding times and providing attentive care to pets with a variety of needs. Whether your cat requires extra monitoring, a structured routine, or simply companionship, I have the time and flexibility to ensure they receive the care and attention they deserve. 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and a pet-friendly home environment. I also have resident cats, so any visiting pets should be comfortable around cats or able to be safely separated if needed. With over 15 years of pet-sitting experience and fostering since 2018, I am experienced in caring for pets of all ages and needs, including seniors, medical cases, kittens, puppies, and nursing mothers. I closely follow each pet's routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions provided by their owner. Because I have an open schedule and caring for animals is my primary focus, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, affection, and enrichment throughout the day. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and at home while their families are away. 🐾🐱🐶

About: Ive had animals my entire life, from small rodents to Great Danes. They all just need a little trust building and play time. Happy to provide any level of care needed. I currently work in the school system, so I dont have availability during the work day, but I am completely availability week-nights, weekends, and school breaks! I am willing to adjust activity levels to fit your animal's needs, how often they need play time, walks, downtime, or potty times. And Im willing to adhere to any rules of the household, if housesitting.

About: I absolutely live for pets to get the care they deserve. After all, our pets are part of our family. I have always had family pets and feel like they are an extension of our family. I work from home and I have a very flexible schedule. If you call...I'm there to take care of your furry friend. It simply takes one phone call for great service. I provide great service to all my clients when ever they need me to go to their home to care for their furry friends. Allow me the possibility to become an extension of your family. Pet care fits my work schedule because I work part time. I can free my schedule anytime. Having a flexible schedule just means I can spend more time with your furry friend and I don't have to be in a rush to get back to work. I have always pampered my pets. They all have a little personality, we just have to take the time to really understand them. Allowing them to be home and comfortable while you are away is the perfect time for you to see.. though the lens of a camera. Enjoy the new video communication!

“Bee was great with Evey! They were communicative and showed up in the agreed time frame. Evey was happy to have some long afternoon walks and came home both times worn out which I appreciate!!”

About: I live in Indianapolis with my husband and our two cats! We can’t yet afford our own dog, but I always jump at the chance to walk with, jog with, pet, feed, and love on other dogs! (See photos for proof). However, cats really have a special place in my heart. I also worked at two different veterinarian’s offices in 2020, 2023, and 2026 where we cared for dogs, cats, and rabbits. I am pet sitting while job searching, so I’m available to give your pets whatever they may need, whether that be medicine, special food, lots of bathroom breaks, or just some affection. Thanks for reading! I left a corporate job because the strict etiquette rules and micromanagement left me unfulfilled. Now, I am on the hunt for whatever my next step is! To you, this means I am very flexible with scheduling. In my clients’ home, I will pay attention to all notes and requests from the owner. If an owner says “no dogs on the couch”, as much as it pains me, that is what I will follow!

About: Walk. Wag. Repeat. 🐾 Hi, I’m Sebastian! Animals have always been the center of my world, and my business, Silly Moose & Co, is named in honor of my late, beloved dog, Layla. Her nickname was "Silly Moose," and she taught me everything about patience, unconditional love, and the joy of a wagging tail. I founded this business to carry on her legacy by treating every pet I meet with that same "Moose-sized" love. 📬 The "Pet's Best Friend" Professional By day, I’m a Letter Carrier, which truly makes me a pet's best friend! I’m out in the community every day, rain or shine, and I’ve mastered the art of making friends with every pup on the block. My career means I am exceptionally reliable, punctual, and used to being active in all types of weather. 🐾 Rescue-Tested Experience When I’m not on my route, I’m dedicated to rescue work. I am a current volunteer at Sketchy Mutts and Underdogs, and I previously spent time with the ASPCA as a shelter walker and dog photographer. These roles have given me invaluable experience with all personality types—from the shyest "underdogs" needing a patient hand to high-energy pups ready for an adventure. 🐈‍⬛ Tailored Care for Cats While the dogs are out walking, the feline family members aren't forgotten! I offer tailored services specifically for cats. As a "servant" to two cats who rule my own home, I know that every cat is unique—whether they want high-energy laser chasing, gentle brushing, or just some quiet company. I’m happy to handle feedings, litter box maintenance, and plenty of "slow blinks." 🏠 My "Moose" Crew at Home My home is shared with Buttercup, my sweet 5-year-old blue nose Staffordshire Terrier, and my two feline house-rulers. Because I live with a Staffy, I am especially comfortable and experienced with "bully breeds" and larger, powerful dogs. 🤝 The Silly Moose Promise Whether it’s boarding, walking, or house sitting, I know your pets are your family. My background in hospitality and community work means I bring a high level of reliability, attention to detail, and clear communication to every booking. Ready to start the cycle? Let’s Walk. Wag. Repeat. I am a Letter Carrier for the United States Post Office, I love animals and will always make time to meet new friends. I am in a transition phase in my career post injury and am trying to be a full time pet friend. At Silly Moose & Co, my care philosophy is built on the cycle of Walk. Wag. Repeat. I believe that a happy pet is one that feels safe, stimulated, and understood. Here is how I ensure your furry family member gets the best experience: 1. Building Trust Through Patience Every pet has a unique "vibe." Drawing from my experience with Sketchy Mutts and Underdogs, I never force a connection. I use "slow blinks" with cats and respectful body language with dogs to let them come to me. Whether they are shy rescues or high-energy "Silly Mooses," I meet them where they are. 2. Structured Walks & Sensory Play As a Letter Carrier, I know the streets like the back of my hand. I don’t just "walk" dogs; I provide structured outings. This includes sniffing breaks for mental stimulation (sensory play) and consistent pacing to ensure they get the physical exercise they need. 3. Meticulous Routine & Safety Pets thrive on consistency. I stick strictly to your feeding, medication, and bathroom schedules. My background in hospitality means I have a sharp eye for detail—I check water bowls, ensure gates are latched, and keep litter boxes "deep-clean" fresh for my feline clients. 4. Communication is Key I know how much you miss them! You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can see the "Wag" in action. I treat your home with the same respect I give my own, ensuring everything is secure and tidy. 5. Specialized Skills From handling "bully breeds" like my Staffy, Buttercup, to administering medications or even bathing a reluctant cat, I have the hands-on experience to handle the unexpected with a calm, steady hand.

“I had my address wrong on my account and she went above and beyond to keep looking for my place to ensure my dog got walked. She has a real dedication towards animals.”
