“Mallory was phenomenal watching Mozzie on a last minute booking. Sent pictures and kept us up to date on what he was doing. Taking him out to the dog park and playing with other puppers. Even sent him home with some dog treats :) highly highly recommend. If I come back to Indiana and need a sitter, she’s who I would book every time.”

About: I have had dogs and cats all my life. I am willing to keep special needs pets and am able to give medication. I am open to discussing any special requirements your pet might have. I live at home with my mom and this is my only job. I am free to give your pet all the love and attention they need. I have a lead in our yard for potty time and live near a dog park for fun and exercise. We will take walks, having brushing time to bond, and have lots of play time. I do have a dog kennel available inside and will have food and water bowls for your pup. We do have cats, so please make sure your dog is cat friendly.
“We’re so grateful for Julie! It can be really difficult to find willing and compassionate care for longer trips. Julie was very responsive and flexible with changes we had to make. She went above and beyond for George and took such good care of him. We had no concerns or worries while we were away and it was such a gift to our family. I highly recommend Julie to anyone and we’re excited to have her care for George in the future!”
“Amy was excellent. She treats dogs as if they were her own. Very safe and warm environment, and she works from home so your dog is always cared for. We already rebooked with Amy.”
