Dog Walking Cumberland

About: I've had dogs since I was born and throughout my entire life. I've had puppies, senior dogs, and all big dogs! I've been sitting for neighbors and friends for years, too. I love to play inside or outside. My specialty is cuddling the love bugs. I'm currently working a very flexible part-time job as a babysitter, typically 9 am - 12 pm Mon, Tues, and Thurs. I have a reliable vehicle, so driving to a house is no problem. I keep a close eye on all the pets (mostly because I'm trying to get them to hang out with me). I set reminders and have notes to help myself keep on top of things! I am very attentive to my surroundings when I am sitting so I can keep the love bugs safe and comfortable.

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: 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 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.

“It is a joy to work with Amanda. I would recommend Amand to my friends.”

About: I grew up as an active 4-H member, showing any animal I could! I have loved animals all my life and turned that passion j into a lifestyle as veterinary assistant. I work very well with anxious pets, pets with medical needs, and elderly pets. Please reach out with any questions you have and I would be happy to chat! I work in the Indianapolis and have the flexibility to care for your pet in the morning, evening, or even during my lunch hour If the distance allows. I care for pets in your home where they are most comfortable. I love pets as if they are my own while being extremely mindful of the pet's usual routine and owner preferences.

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 had my own dog for 5 years, and it’s taught me a lot of responsibility. I used to dog walk for my neighbors before I moved. Also, I have a lot of patience when it comes to dogs.

About: I have worked with all kinds of animals: reptiles, amphibians, dogs, cats, and small mammals. I have worked for shelters, pet stores, and a zoo in my time with animals.

I try to do my best to make sure your pets have the opportunity to retain some normalcy and routine while you're away to help them stay happier and healthier while they wait for your return. (This includes trying to make sure I don't disrupt any previous training.) I also go out of my way to give them lots of affection and mental stimulation to help keep them occupied and entertained.

About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for animals and have worked with dogs, cats, and other household pets of different sizes, temperaments, and needs. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, play with, and care for their pets while they were away. I genuinely love helping people and building connections within my community.

About: I have been taking care of animals all my life, from the pets I grew up with (dogs, cats and horses) to my first job at a small boarding kennel. I grew that love of animals to becoming a vet tech for the past 4 years so I'm well versed in all pets and ailments that come with them. I can medicate and assist with limited mobility creatures of all shapes and sizes. I'm currently working part-time so have plenty of time to take care of your furry friend's! I schedule my days with walks, feedings, and playtime in mind, ensuring each furry client gets the individual attention and love they deserve. I am experienced in meeting pets on their terms and in their environment. I am also respectful of others spaces and their own pets requirements (needing to be crated, etc.).

About: I've been a dog and cat owner and caretaker for more than 30 years. I love spending time with dogs and cats of all sizes and ages! I currently have a German Retriever mix named Callie and a Miniature Pinscher mix named Pippa - both are spoiled rotten, love to play with other dogs and do well with cats. I also have 2 cats - Michonne and Betty White. Both do well with other cats and dogs. I'm currently home most days but will occasionally work from home. I am available to provide all services 7 days a week, unless my calendar shows that I’m unavailable due to an appointment. I live in a home that does not have a fenced in yard, but we are close to Pleasant Run trail and area parks. My Golden doodle is a little shy but gets along with all kinds of dogs and cats big and small. The cats also get along with other pets.
