“I have three senior dogs. One is diabetic and another has Addison’s disease. They are somewhat high maintenance. I couldn’t imagine taking them to a dog boarding place. As always I never worry about the pups when Angela is with them. She’s there when she says she will be and loves my dogs. Makes travel so much less stressful.”


“Don’t let her being new-ish to the platform deter you, she is great and went above and beyond, staying longer and coming more often than every other caregiver we have had. She followed very specific directions to a T, including complex medication. We will be hiring her again”


About: I currently have a dog sitting business around my home Lawrenceburg Indiana! I have been dog sitting for 5 years and I have worked at a doggy daycare for over three years. I currently have one job! My shift usually ranges from 5-8 hours! So if your fur babies are used to 8 hours I’d love to help! I will treat your babies like my own animals! I consider my dogs my children and I love them to death. I constantly do update and send pictures!


About: You know when you walk by a dog, he starts walking towards you, trying to drag their owner towards you, and you know he just wants to say hello and be pet? My thought process is the same as the dogs every time I pass one. Nine times out of ten I will stop, ask the owner if it's alright to pet their dog, then sit and chat with them and love on the dog for a while. (And I only chat to pet the dog longer). All my life I have heard many cases of, "Don't touch my cat or he'll scratch you" or "Watch out for the dog, he growls at everyone" and before my visit is over I have the cat in my lap and the dog following me where ever I go. My fiancée calls me Dr. Doolittle.

About: I graduated from the Veterinary Assisting program at Diamond Oaks in 2018. I have over 5 years of experience caring for cats/dogs/small animals/reptiles, as well as 2 years caring for farm animals. I am able to administer medication to animals of all sizes. I own 3 dogs, a rabbit, a bearded dragon, 4 leopard geckos, an iguana, 7 chickens and a cat! My pets are one of my main priorities and yours will be too. I provide top notch care and have many years of experience caring for pets. Our pets are used to having a human around them daily. They are VERY spoiled. My pets are family and yours will be treated as such too ❤️

About: I have had dogs my whole life, I strive to make all animals’ lives better. I believe mental stimulation is just as important as physical activity. I am currently preparing to start grooming school this year! (I also have quite a bit of experience with houseplants!) I work night shift (6pm - 4:30am) so it can be difficult but I make pet care a priority. I make sure to spend as much time outside as possible doing a mix of basic training and puzzles. I live on a farm with an open field and one semi-reactive dog (Which would be put in the house to prevent accidents). While outside I take my dog for walks around the field so she can sniff and dig as much as she would like. I also do snuffle mats/dog puzzles

About: Since I was a very young child I have taken care of animals. My first was Queenie whom I had for 18 years before we had to put her down from old age. I have taken care of cats and dogs of all ages as well as other domestic and exotic animals. I believe all animals are to be treated as family with love and compassion as well as getting all the attention and love their heart desires. I am currently available just about whenever needed due to being a stay at home mom who also does Instacart. I have animals of my own who are my fur babies and I am blessed to have a family who is able to be here for both the kids and fur babies anytime I may be needed for a job. I am able to handle walking any size dogs and control them without issues. I also have a crate if one is requested that can fit from a large breed down to a cat, a small bed, food, water, and litter box. My vehicle is large enough to take animals to parks if desired for a nice stroll or maybe to the pet store to get a treat. I will always provide whatever service is requested with love, care, and compassion as if they're my own fur babies!

Nick O.
“I can’t recommend Nick highly enough as a pet caregiver. He has a natural gift when it comes to animals, patient, attentive, and full of love. From the first time I saw him interact with a dog, it was clear how much he genuinely cares for their happiness and well-being. Whether it’s going on long walks, playing fetch, or just giving belly rubs and snuggles, Nick truly goes above and beyond to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for. Nick is also incredibly responsible. He always shows up on time, follows instructions to the letter, and checks in with updates and photos to keep you in the loop. It gives such peace of mind knowing that your pet is not only being looked after, but is being treated like part of the family. He’s handled everything from energetic puppies to older dogs who need medication and a gentler touch, always with compassion and professionalism. Beyond that, Nick is just a kind and trustworthy person. He creates a calm, positive environment that animals are naturally drawn to. My own dog absolutely lights up when Nick comes around, and that says everything. You won’t find someone more dedicated or more genuine. If you’re looking for someone who will love and care for your pet like their own, Nick is your guy. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my fur baby in his care again, and I know they’d be wagging their tail the whole time.”

Natalie T.
“Natalie loves sitting for us. Our pet (a male English Cream Golden Retriever) loves her easy caring approach and when we get home he's always settled, happy and relaxed, even when we extra take time away. He trusts her and so do we. She's kind and attentive and he behaves really well whenever she sits for us. Natalie is detail oriented and checks in often keeping us posted with pics and comments. We can relax and enjoy our time away knowing our boy is in good hands.”

Ron H.
“Ron and I were roommates for several years. Ron had a pittie and I owned a French Mastiff. Through the years of living under the same roof and both of us owning dogs, I have true first hand, day to day knowledge of just how amazing Ron is with dogs. Ron's dog Loki had possibly an allergy of some kind and I would see Ron giving Loki his meds like clock work. Ron always fed Loki quality dog food. Loki never lacked for love, attention, and was well behaved due to Ron being so diligent with him. Kind and caring. Ron earned my trust immediately and I would leave my Mastiff, Aubrey in his care. I NEVER left my Aubrey with anyone, ever. Aubrey adored him. Loki adored him. Ron was attentive to every tiny thing about Loki (and Aubrey) and so when he spotted a tiny lump on Loki, to the vets they went. Loki had cancer and he didn't waste one minute to have it removed. Ron was extremely vigilant watching over Loki (although, he obviously always did) and if there were any question or doubt, off to the vets he would go. I could not name one single person who I would trust more with my dog than Ron. Ron loves dogs with a passion that you only see in a handful of people.”


Anastasia M.
“Anna, is truly a pet lover. She has multiple lizards, fish as well as a cat and she treats out 5 dogs like her own. She goes out of the way to make sure they are happy and well taken care of.”


Taylor B.
“Taylor has been taking care of our animals for some time. She is dependable, caring and flexible. She follows all directions that I leave for her. She is very responsible and if an issue arises she has contacted me for instructions on what I would like to do. I really appreciate that she contacts me when something other than the normal happens.”


Amber K.
“I've known Amber for over 15 years. Shes a down to Earth person and never looks down on anyone. She has tons of friends and people seem to gravitate to her. She has an undying love for animals and seems really connect with them. I've seen her make sacrifices in her life too help animals she's met by chance encounters. She helps strays every day of her life. The love she has for her pets in equal to the love she has for any family member. Anyone should feel comfortable trusting her with their pet as I have no doubt she would lay down her life to bring them back safe. Amber is a rare breed and one of the "real ones".”
