Dog Sitting in East Chicago

About: I fell in love with animals when I got my first dog cubby at only 12 years old. Ever since then I knew I had a passion for animals of all kind. Now I care for my own 1 year old puppy and have since he was 7 weeks old. I never knew how important animals would become to me and to be with dogs all the time is a dream come true! I currently work at Texas Roadhouse part time 3 days a week. I am a full time student, mostly online classes. When I am not at work I am committed to taking care of your fur baby. I have a 1 year old Aussiedoodle who LOVES other dogs and would love to play with your furry friend if this is something you and your baby would be interested in. I am committed to making sure your home & pup are well kept while you are away!

“Lupe took care of my cats during the holidays with great care! She paid attention to all their needs and kept me updated on everything. This was my first time leaving them alone like this, so I'm really glad I had Lupe to count on.”

“Jorinee was excellent with both of my cats. I am so glad I found her. I use to be concerned about who would look after my fur babies or even if I would be able to travel at all. My cats were very comfortable with her. They were relaxed, well fed and their litter box was clean. You can tell it was done on a consistent basis. I have another lengthy vacation for next year and will no doubt be requesting her. She is excellent and I would recommend her to anyone asking.”

“Coretta did an amazing job taking care of our cats while we were away. She went above and beyond - taking care of unforeseen issues that popped up and sending thoroughly documented (and cute) reports after each visit. I would recommend her to anyone as a trustworthy, compassionate, and knowledgeable caretaker for your animals.”

Amanda E.

“They took wonderful care of my cats and sent helpful updates every day. I’ll definitely book with them again!”

About: I have been taking care of animals from a very young age. I had a variety of pets growing up including dogs, cats, a lizard, guinea pigs, and a chinese dwarf hamster. I have experience taking care of family members’ and friends’ dogs and cats while away or on vacation. I’m attentive, detail-oriented, and comfortable caring for pets of all ages. I treat every pet like my own and provide consistent, loving care while keeping owners updated for peace of mind. I’m currently in between jobs, so I have extra availability! I should be available any time you need me, but I will let you know otherwise. I will treat your animals like my own, and they will be under great care! I’m an animal lover and animals love me too!

About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was born from dogs, to fish, and even a turtle. Given, I have experience in both raising puppies and senior care. My family has lost our 16 year old labrador retriever last year, Mac, due to old age and would like to continue to show our love for pets through helping other families! We recently got Mickey, who is an energetic and fun Shih Poo looking to make friends! I am currently not working so I have plenty of time to take care of any of your pets needs. I currently have open availability! I have a spacious home and large unfenced yard for your dog to play and relax. Your pet will also be very safe under consistent supervision and attention to their needs.

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 10 years old. My first dog was a beagle pup and I have taken care of dozens of breeds of dogs since then, from chihuahuas to great danes. I have walked the largest of breeds and have trained them as well. I have had friends and family members entrust their dogs to me to care for weekly stays as well as to exercise regularly. Your fur babies will be in good care with me! Also whenever I see a lost dog running around I try my best to catch it and get it back to its owners. My son has been with me several times when this has happened and now he does it too. I am a stay-at-home mom so I can make my availability whatever it needs to be for you and your best fur friend (within reason and safety limits). I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog named Flash. He loves playing with other dogs that come stay with us. The best thing about him is his absolute obedience to my commands. He truly is the smartest dog I've ever had! 💜 While caring for your dog at your home I will follow all of your rules and respect how you wish for your dog to be cared for. Your dogs will be treated like family in my home. I love to take the dogs outside to play or just to soak up some sun when the weather cooperates. Snuggles come at no extra cost in my house, and your pup will be relaxed and happy when you come back. I follow all instructions given to me by my client and give updates on their well-being throughout the duration of their stay. I answer texts and calls quickly. I will not accept dogs that display aggression to other dogs or humans under any circumstances for boarding in my home.

“Riley did an amazing job checking in on our pup Charlie. She came over and met us ahead of time, sent us updates and pictures, and was very flexible. It really put our mind at ease to know Charlie was well taken care of. We plan on using her again in the future!”

I absolutely love animals and I am sure I can give your pet the love they require while you are away. I am the fur mommy of Sāj (pronounced Sage), and my angel fur baby Stasi 🕊️💕. Sāj loves other dogs almost more than she loves me. We have fur friends of all ages, shapes and sizes. So big or small, she can adapt and be a fun friend to play/cuddle with.

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: For as long as I can remember I have taken care of, rescued, and cared for animals. Through out my life I have over all had 18 animals in my house hold (at one point in time 8 cats all under the same roof) and I have often helped taken care of animals of family and friends. I have checked in on dogs for noon outside time and potty breaks as well as stayed at a home for as long as a month to take care of a cat. I have experience with pets in all stages of life and in handling animals with different temperaments. I have also given animals medications (from diabetic shots to thyroid pills to special prescription food) and I am very active in taking care of them. Currently I have one dog and three cats that I share with my partner, all of whom I have taken care of from early on in their lives. I am currently in between jobs so most days and times I am available. I do share a car but we always work together to figure out who can use the car when. Just let me know what you need and when and I will work with you to figure out a schedule that works for both of us. I am very respectful of other's homes, making sure things are clean and nothing is messed up. Whether your fur baby tore up a rug or I accidentally broke something, there will be full transparency on what happened while you're away. I can send daily text check ins and don't mind being called daily to ensure everything is alright, your animals are family and I will treat them as such. Any house rules or animal schedules you have set I will abide by. I will give your animal full attention and do what I can to give them what they need.

I’m free most of the day and I already take care of my fur babies at home full time, I don’t mind helping out others as well. I’m in a perfect location for dog walking, a block away from a park. I also have two friendly cats at home that have experience with other animals in and out the house.
