“Rachel and Seth were great with Mellie. Their schedules are super accommodating and Mellie loved their pool, sunny backyard, and front yard windows. She would love to go back any time!”


“Rosie was so good to our little Ella. We went on an 11 day cruise and were nervous to leave her. The daily photographs helped a great deal. It turns out Ella and Rosie's dog became fast friends and Ella settled in very well. We would highly recommend Rosie!”


“Valerie was a lifesaver when I needed to book her and she had the availability last minute to watch after my 2 dogs. She updated me every single day under her care and would contact me when she had questions just to make sure that my dogs were comfortable and had the proper csre that they needed while I was away. She took them on walks and to the park (checked in with me first), and they had a great time with Valerie! Would absolutely recommend!”


“I needed someone to watch my pup while I was away for a wedding this weekend, and Claudia was quick to respond and let me know she was available. She was very accommodating and gave me so much peace of mind knowing Zoey was in good hands while I was away! Would definitely use her again and can’t recommend her enough!”


“I typically leave Bootz with my parents so I was extremely nervous to try someone new. I absolutely loved Jacklyn! I didn't have to check in (which I thought I would have to do) because Jacklyn sent morning and evening updates with pictures. She provided very vivid descriptions including his habits for the day, what he was eating and what he was drinking. She even slept on the couch with Bootz in the living room because he doesn't sleep well by himself. Jacklyn was perfect. I will be utilizing Jacklyn for all of my future boarding needs!”


“Richard & his wife Elyce took the best care of our 8 month old goldendoodle. Penny loved playing in the fenced-in backyard with Bruce, their bernese. During our trip, Richard kept us updated with how Penny was doing-including pictures! When we picked her up, they included the most adorable puppy report card which is now hanging on our fridge. We will definitely be calling Richard and family the next time we go away.”


“Yaima was a wonderful dog sitter! She was very responsive, flexible, and so sweet. Cooper loved playing with her 4-year old golden retriever, Stella! I would recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking her again! ☺️”



“This was our first time trying Rover, or having anyone watch our pup. Karen was quick to respond, friendly, flexible, and did a wonderful job. She was also very reasonably priced! Oscar liked it there so much I don’t think he wanted to leave! She sent us updates, pics, and videos. We already have our next stay for him there planned. Will continue to use so we can visit family in Indy. Thank you Karen!”


“I booked with Annie twice now & and she’s been absolutely fantastic both times - my dog actively gets excited when I take him up to her door, which is a great sign. Zero drama, very flexible with pickup/dropoff, good with medication, & her little dog is a super fun ball of playful energy that my dog loved. You can’t go wrong :-)”


“We are so thankful that Holli and Susan were available to care for Zoey. I felt comfortable and confident with their ability to meet the needs of my senior dog while we were away. I was sent pictures and updates. Holli and Susan were accommodating, professional, and personable. I hope that they are available when we travel again!”


“My girls just love hanging out with the pack, they come home satisfied! I never have to worry about them knowing they are having a great vacation while I am! Lydia”


About: We are an energetic family with four boys ages 5-12 who love to play! If you are looking for a safe space for your dog(s) to receive lots of love, play, belly rubs, and time outside, we would love the opportunity to share our home with your pet! We are a homeschooling family, so I am home much of the time and available to allow your pet to take frequent potty breaks and have plenty of time to play and exercise. If your dogs love kids and are eager to play, our loving family and home are a fantastic solution! We have a large fenced-in backyard (6ft. privacy fence) with plenty of room to run and chase tennis balls. Our home is comfortable and inviting. Dogs are allowed to roam on the main level and in the basement but are not permitted upstairs in the bedrooms. Well-trained pets are free to roam whenever we are out of the home during the day. Our younger children still wake up during the night, so in order to prevent any "scares" or barking, dogs must be crated at night. Owners must provide the crate. Dogs are given a final potty break around 10PM, crated, and then released from their crate around 6:30 AM and immediately taken outside to use the bathroom, then free to roam and play for the duration of the day. Whenever a dog shows any signs of wanting to go outside, they are immediately let out. If our high-energy environment becomes overwhelming for your pet, I can offer a safe, quiet space for rest. Dogs who would be a good fit in our home: -can easily tolerate (and NOT dominate) young children -love to play -enjoy lots of run time/exercise -enjoy (and don't shy away from) physical affection (i.e. belly rubs, head scratches, fully body hugs) - easily sleep in a crate at night -are not bothered by general kid energy (yelling, running, loud noises) -are not highly anxious or territorial or aggressive toward kids of any age in any way -do not chew on strewn toys, furniture, stuffed animals, etc. All feeding and any medication instructions will be strictly followed. I will provide regular updates and photos of your pet's stay with us so that you can continue to feel connected even while away.

“We drop our pup off with peace of mind at Katie’s house. She and her family love on our dog like he’s their own. We know he’s cared for, played with, loved on, and well taken care of with them. I also appreciate the updates and photos she sends while we are away. We have used this sweet family twice and plan to continue when the chance arrives. Highly recommend them!”


“Amanda was amazing taking care of my guy Kenny! I needed a last minute sitter and she was super flexible with drop off and pick up. She sent sweet pictures throughout and was very responsive. He was never alone and had a great time with her. We will definitely be using her again!”



“Yuan and her family took great care of Snowball! He seems both tired and content, so he must have had a great time at their place. It's clear they’re pros when it comes to dogs. Yuan also shared lots of details about Snowball, and I can tell she's both patient and passionate about caring for dogs. I’d definitely love to board Snowball with them again!”


“Our dog, Nellie, had an amazing time with Kim! We got regular photos and updates, and Nellie is exhausted from walks and playing with Kim’s dog, too. Would love for Kim to watch Nellie again!”


“This is our second time using Casey to watch our dogs when we visit our friends in Carmel/Indy. She’s great as Bobbie and Bandit always leave happy and energetic! She’s understanding and has been very awesome! Thanks so much!”
