Dog Sitting East Chicago

“Kayla has been great! She went above and beyond cleaning up after our puppy. The dogs are super excited to hang out with her. It’s given us such peace of mind knowing our pups are well taken care of during the day. Will definitely book with her again.”

About: I grew up in a multi pet home and learned to walk, train and groom pets from a young age. I cared for the last family dog through her medically tedious senior years. Through college I pet sat and walked for friends and family. For 2 years I worked for a veterinary clinic, although my job was marketing I often was asked to assist with holding and monitoring patients. When I became a pet owner I adopted puppies raising them through potty and crate training. I am proud to say they continue to be healthy and happy. Now we foster and pet sit dogs of all ages and sizes because of the dog friendly environment we’ve created at home. My success in pet lies with gaining the pets trust. I approach them slowly and go at their pace, sitting and waiting on the ground if necessary. I am pet sitting and walking full time so I have plenty of time to dedicate to my clients! Dogs are typically walked and out between 7am and 9pm. I have a fully fenced yard with ample room for running and playing. There are four resident dogs who are friendly and used to guests. We can crate your pup or have them sleep in a bed or in bed with me. Water is available at all times through a 2 gallon water dispenser.

“Mark is extremely responsible, timely communicates very well about any issue is able to handle a reactive dog. His patience and kindness are quite the asset.”

“Grace was wonderful with our four cats! She was so patient with one of our cats who needs to take oral mediation twice a day and gave us a lot of updates on how it was going. We don’t travel often so it was a relief to know our boys were taken care of!”

About: I’ve had the joy of working with dogs of all sizes at the Homewood Adoption Center, where I learned to care for every personality—from playful puppies to wise seniors. I love helping each dog feel safe, happy, and loved, and I bring that same dedication to every pet in my care. I am available to care for pets all week and can adjust my schedule to meet your needs, including overnight stays if required. Your pets’ comfort and happiness are my top priority!

About: I've had dogs my whole life including senior dogs and large dogs. I have experience in drop-in sitting for several days at a time. I've taken care of three small elderly dogs at once, including one that was completely blind and hard of hearing. I'm comfortable walking and bathing larger dogs, as I myself have had a dog over 100 pounds. I do not have professional experience, meaning I've never been paid to dog-sit, but I have been sitting for neighbors and friends for several years. He tenido perros todo mi vida, incluyendo perros grandes y de edad avanzada. Tengo experiencia cuidando perros a domicilio durante varios días seguidos. He cuidado a tres perros pequeños y mayores al mismo tiempo, entre ellos uno que era totalmente ciego y tenía problemas de audición. Me siento cómoda paseando y bañando perros grandes, ya que yo misma e tenido un perro de más de 100 libras. No cuento con experiencia profesional, es decir, nunca he cobrado por cuidar perros, pero llevo varios años cuidando los perros de vecinos y amigos. I am a full time university student working part time on my campus! All my classes are scheduled in the morning Monday-Thursday so I’m available after 3 then. Friday-Sunday I can be there for your pets anytime! I do not currently sit in my home, but I do have harnesses and leashes available if you do not already have one. We could discuss whether the leashes and harnesses I own are a good fit for your furry friend! :)

“Nicole was amazing with our puppy! We were very anxious dog moms and they did everything to calm our nerves! The pictures they took had us dying! Our puppy was clearly have the BEST time and was very comfortable with Nicole. Would highly recommend them!!”

“Lydia was very kind to help me out last minute, was understanding after Zella barked at her for 5 minutes and was very responsive. I appreciate her very much!”

About: Hi Rover! My name is Alex. I have been a pet owner since I could walk; dogs, cats, fish, birds, gerbils, even rats! 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. I do work a full time job, however, I have flexibility in my day for walks, playtime, feeding, etc. I can provide plenty of daily updates and pictures. For new clients, I offer a doggie report card and Polaroid photo to ensure your pet was taken care of with the same love you give. If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to ask. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! I have a hybrid schedule of work from home and office time, with flexibility to ensure your pet, like mine, are not left alone for extended periods of time throughout the day. I have a home with huge fenced yard to roam and play. I live within walking distance to regular parks and don’t mind taking a trip to the dog parks for socializing and exercise.

“Gabrielle was the perfect fit for our pup! She showed up on time and stayed the time that was requested which sounds basic, but I personally really appreciate that. She took great care of our dog and provided a great summary of her care for him letting us know how he was on his walk, refilled his water and played with him and gave him treats. I look forward to having her take care of our dog again!”

“Guillermina was great with my cats. She was able to visit everyday to feed, play and administer supplements. I recommend her for your visits.”

Daniel G.

“Acoya is an animal whisperer. Our girls were happy and relaxed after leaving them for an extended stay, which is really saying a lot. Love that Acoya stayed for the full amount of time during each visit. She also gave us peace of mind in giving our kitty her pill on schedule. Looking forward to having her again.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid. It was a side job for me to make money for extra activities. I would watch neighbors, families, and the communities fur babies I try to be pretty flexible with schedules, I do have a full time job to also keep in mind. So, just let me know what works for you and we can work something out! I care for your fur babies in your home like I would a child or my fur baby. I offer whatever services that makes you comfortable!

“Taylor did a great job with my three cats while I was away. She followed all feeding instructions, took time for play and communicated daily.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐✨ We had a last minute worry about our cat sitting situation so I went on Rover for the first time. We were gone for a few weeks and felt really bad for the cats. We feel so lucky to have found Lisa. She ended up spending more time with our cats than scheduled. She also was able to fix the schedule when we had to make a change. There are other things that helped our peace-of-mind like turning the porch light off each day and bringing the mail in so our home didn't look vacant. She cleaned up before leaving. She left detailed notes and sent cute photos daily of cuddling and playing with our cats :) We will definitely reach out to Lisa for our cat sitting in the future.”
