About: I volunteer and foster regularly with Homer's Helpers. I have experience with special needs animals ranging from diabetes, epilepsy, fear aggression, and severe separation anxiety.Any pets that stay in our home must be good with other dogs and cats as we have several in our home. I have a passion for animals of all shapes and sizes and have experience with small animals, reptiles, birds (large and small), and horses in addition to dogs and cats. I have had dogs since I was born. I have fostered many different breeds, from mutts, to pit bulls, to Great Pyrenees. Our dogs are Copper (Pom mix 12.5 lbs), Dexter (Golden Retriever 50lbs), and Versace (Pom mix 4.2lbs). All dogs that come to our home must be 30lbs or under as we don't want to risk our littles getting injured when they play. Our front yard is 1500sqft fully fenced and I have secured chicken wire to the bottom to ensure small dogs can't squeeze through. Our backyard is 500sqft fully privacy fenced, so we are able to accommodate dogs that could jump a 3ft. Our homes exterior is completely covered in security cameras so I can monitor the dogs at all times even if they are not in my immediate line of site. I am certified in dog and cat CPR/first aid through PetTech. I recently began a dog grooming apprenticeship. I am very comfortable giving medication, be it pills or injections I know how to do it. Any dogs that board in our home will be given a complementary "Night Night Cookie" as we call it. A buddy biscuit before bed. They are a healthy treat with no corn, wheat, or soy and come in many different flavors for dogs with different allergies. Dogs who board will be kenneled at night, we have crates available for use that are sanitized after each dog. We also feed meals in crates to avoid food aggression. I also offer Boss Dog frozen yogurt for $3 a serving and organic bone broth as a treat or food topper for $2. I can provide a lickimat or Kong filled with organic peanut butter for $2. I am able to provide Blackwood kibble for $2 a day if you forget to pack their regular kibble. We do also have a freezer that we can store raw food if needed. All dogs who board/play in our home must be up to date on vaccines or have a recent tider test. All dogs must be on current HW and flea prevention to be able to come to our home. We also have a dog treadmill that we can have dog boarding with us use to ensure adequate excercise during their stay. All dogs who board/play in our home must be up to date on vaccines or have a recent tider test, this is the policy of the rescue I work with in order to maintain my foster status. I have security cameras on the exterior of my home with all of both yards visible. I am planning on adding cameras in every room in the house. Dogs are crated to eat their meals to prevent food aggression. Toys are not made available until I have monitored how all the dogs in the home interact together on multiple occasions to ensure there is no resource guarding. All cabinets and closets are child locked so no dog is able to open them and get into anything they shouldn't. All dogs who board/play in our home must be up to date on vaccines or have a recent tider test. All dogs must be on current HW and flea prevention to be able to come to our home.

About: I have always been around pets since I was a baby and therefore am aware of a range of needs they have. I have experience with elderly pets as well as younger, and currently take care of my own cat. I often help my grandpa take care of his dogs and cat, two of which have anxiety and one being 12 years old. I have also pet sat for several friends before, some with several cats and some with single dogs. I love bigger dogs, especially bully breeds. I work Mon, Tues, and then Thurs - Sat, 9 - 3 most weeks. I am available EVERY sunday. Most of the time I spend with animals anyway, and I know I’m great with them! I also love going on walks and being outside when I can. I can easily accommodate my company to both lazy and playful pets, and can switch between being playful and resting easily. I tend to follow rules of the house fairly well and refuse to overstep boundaries.

About: My family has always owned a dog. Ever since I was young, my family and friends have relied on me to care for their animals, whether it be a walk, or an overnight sit. I’m a current Ball State Social Work grad student and love paying visits to the local Animal Shelter in my free time! I am a part time grad student at Ball State University, and also work part time at a daycare. I still have a lot of free time I’d like to fill throughout the week doing something I love, like taking care of animals. I am very attentive when it comes to caring for other peoples babies. Safety for myself and the pet is my number one priority. I do have a fenced in big back yard, and I also live right next to campus!

“Synthia is the best! She is so careful, kind, and consistent! With the long hours me and my boyfriend work she provides a great walk to our two pitty babies!”

About: I have been around pets my whole life. Recently, I have been caring for friends' and coworkers' pets, and it has been so rewarding for me as a pet lover! Your pet's love takes care of me as much as I hope to take care of them! I am currently between jobs, so my availability is practically limitless. I am happy to work around your schedule to provide the best possible care for your pet! I understand how much trust you need to have in a stranger coming into your home and taking part in your pet's routine. I am very respectful of the homes I enter, and with the pets I interact with, as that is what I'd want someone to do for me.

“Taylor did a great job taking care of my dog! Took him for walks, played ball, fed him if needed, and made sure he had water when she left. She also gave nice updates from each visit. Very grateful for her!”

I work part time at a dog grooming shop as a bather, I interact with many different dogs. What sets me apart is my patience, attentiveness, and ability to adapt to each dog’s unique personality and routine.

I’m reliable with planning ahead so I can make sure each pet gets consistent attention, walks, and care without feeling rushed. Even with a part-time job, I prioritize being fully present and dependable when I’m caring for animals. In my client’s home, I always follow their instructions closely to keep pets comfortable in their normal routine. I make sure pets are safe, supervised, and never left unattended for long periods. I keep water fresh, follow feeding schedules, and provide regular walks, playtime, and attention. I’m careful with doors, leashes, and any safety concerns to prevent escapes or accidents. I also respect the home by keeping it clean, organized, and treating it with care, just like I would my own.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up around them, I learned early on that dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. Throughout my life, I’ve helped raise, nurture, and look after dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies who need patience and structure to older dogs who need gentle care and attention, I’ve always been comfortable meeting each dog’s unique needs. My experience includes feeding routines, playtime, basic reinforcement of good behaviors, and making sure dogs feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I pay close attention to a dog’s body language and personality so I can provide care that keeps them happy, calm, and engaged. Whether that means active outdoor time, mental stimulation, or simply relaxing companionship, I’m happy to adapt to what each dog enjoys most. Above all, I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and plenty of affection. My goal is always to give owners peace of mind while making sure their dogs feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm very active and love spending time outdoors. I have a large fenced yard with a doggy door.

Dogs are allowed on furniture and the bed. I spend a lot of time with my dogs playing outside and inside. I can accommodate crate training if needed.

Give them the love and attention that you want to give them, but unfortunately aren’t able to. I wake up in the mornings and give my babies food and fresh water. Give them attention once they wake up a little bit. I check their bowls periodically when I’m home and change the water at night and give them a little more food before bed. Along with nighttime cuddles because house are important. I wake up in the morning and take care of my cats first thing. Get them food. I wash their water bowl out and get them fresh water. I give them attention after they wake up a little bit more. I pay attention to their body signs and try to give them what they need. I love and care for my pets and I will do the same for yours.
