“Hope is kind, and my dog, Artie, took to her very quickly. I even think he might have been looking for her or wondering where she was after I got home. She is also so great about providing updates and photos if that's what you're looking for.”


“Bralynn was amazing with our fur family. She treated them like family and they responded well to her. She stayed with them for the weekend and it was so nice knowing someone was with them. She was so great to us with our chaotic weekend changes also. Very flexible and helpful. The house looked the same as when we left. Thank you so much! Highly recommend and will definitely use again.”


“We couldn't be more grateful for Jessie! She took amazing care of our beloved shepherds and our home while we were on vacation. Before finding Jessie, my husband and I rarely traveled together—we're very particular about who we trust with our dogs and our home. Jessie exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we booked with her, communication was clear, timely, and thoughtful. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and photos that gave us total peace of mind. It was clear our pups were happy, relaxed, and in great hands. We were able to truly enjoy our vacation knowing everything back home was being cared for so well. Jessie’s attention to detail, reliability, and genuine love for animals completely won us over. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and are already looking forward to future travel plans now that we have someone we trust completely. Highly, highly recommend!”


About: I have the freedom to go anywhere needed with the ability to drive. I can also take care of the pets special needs such as giving medicine. I enjoy walking and playing. My little dog has a big dog attitude, so when she gets aggressive I know how to handle her, and keep a safe distance not letting anyone get hurt. I can take care of pets anytime of the week when needed, though I do have an online college class Monday through Thursday that's from 1-3:50pm. I can take it anywhere since I have a laptop and tablet to work with. I will have that schedule until June 26th. I have a fenced in backyard, and a small dog that goes through the doggy door. I am always available to open the door to let your pet out at anytime. I walk my dog around the neighborhood 3 or more times around the week at least.

“Evelyn was great with my pets and they enjoyed her. I got lots of cute pictures and updates. She worked great with my schedule that was based on how quickly I was driving through not good weather and we got back almost 12hrs later than intended. I came home to my house cleaner than I left it too which was a great surprise after driving 1800 miles in under 48 hours. She even watched a couple of my clients pets that had last minute bookings!”


About: I have experience with watching dogs and cats. I have dealt with puppies and senior dogs a like. I have had to give senior dogs pills for their health while watching them. I have dealt with puppies and potty training them. I have walked dogs before. I have plenty of time to watch and care for your dogs. I can watch them just about anytime during the week and after 1pm on the weekends. I watch pets and take them out when they need to. I can crate your dog if needed and can also feed them and clean up after them.

About: I’ve been a dog owner and foster parent my whole life. I’ve trained and owned all kinds of dogs from Jack Russels and Pomeranians to Great Danes and Golden Doodles. The relationships I build with dogs are enriching and rewarding. The innocence and desire to just be themselves is what I love about animals. I treat my new dog friends like family and I believe they prosper in a relationship that promotes their inner dog as well as setting boundaries that help the human/canine relationship prosper. I embrace the belief of calm assertive dominance and find it that dogs seem to find peace in me being in that role. I am a stay at home parent whose availability is an asset that I utilize for the sake of the animals I care for. I hope to one day befriend your best friend. I’m a stay at home father of 10 and 12 yr old boys. I raise 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 24 chickens. I have lots of flexibility to ensure the care needed for you pet. I love to spend time with animals in the environment they feel most comfortable. With my flexible schedule and the abundance of land on my property and in my locale, I know I can fit the needs of your furry friend.

About: Most familiar with cat care all the way from little kittens to senior cats. I do dog walks and dropin visits on the Wag app and have a perfect 5 star rating for every job I have done and am looking to expand my clientele here. I absolutely love being able to care for pets and see how happy they are when we go for walks or play fetch. I also dogsit my family's golden doodle who is learning tricks and has anxiety around people. I have a part time job and do contract work on my own schedule so I can fit pet care around my current schedule easily. I intend your home space to be the same as you left it when you return from your trip with a happy pet waiting for you.

“We love Alexis! She took such good care of our 7 year old dog. We rescued him and he has always been a little anxious. He immediately felt at ease with her! She took him on lots of walks and he got lots of pets and cuddles(his favorite). She stayed in our home and kept everything nice and tidy! We hope she is available to watch him again in the future!”


About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was little. I’ve had both big and little dogs, with other small animals as well. Many neighbors, family members, and friends have trusted me to take care of their animals when needed. I am a student at Ball State with have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I am available everyday, so clients work schedules are no problem for me. This past summer I worked for a cleaning service to take care of peoples homes. I am responsible with others belongings and handle them with care. While I am not taking care of pets then, I handle everything with the same attitude.

“Excellent in all ways and so happy Charlie received so much love and attention. I really appreciated everything nice and tidy as well! What a nice welcome home after our long trip!! #1 sitter in my book!!”


About: I have been around dogs and livestock my entire life. I currently work at a veterinary clinic as a receptionist and am going to school to become a veterinarian hopefully. I look forward to see you and your fur babies. I’m currently a student at Ball State. I have a lot of downtime after 5pm or so. I also have breaks in between classes. Let me know what you need and I will make it work! I have 3 dogs currently, that are all very social and loving. But can be put up if your fur baby gets nervous or anything else.

About: I have experience taking care of animals, it’s my favorite thing to do. I would love to continue to learn and meet other animals to care for My schedule is pretty open at the moment, would love to avoid weekends if possible but I am willing to work anytime, until my schedule is more full I love spending time with the animal I am in charge of, whether it’s walking or playing outside or inside and just sitting on the couch. Whatever the animal would need

“Sarah was absolutely awesome watching our dg while we had to go out for the day. I felt very comfortable with her watching our Freya and she let Freya get to know her for a while. She sent us updates and pictures and for the first time I’ve ever used a house sitter or had someone watch my dog I am very pleased.”


About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have raised my 13 year old dachshund and 7 year old Great Dane! I have babysat pets for my friends and family for years as well! I love all animals! I currently travel the states with my husband for his job. I am free all hours of the week. I can check on your pets or simply walk them for you! Unfortunately, we move every month so I can not do long term visits. I am honored to help out as much as I can. A pets safety is my top priority! I never let the pets out of my sight and follow all pet instructions carefully. My 13 year old dog is on several medications, so I am very particular about how someone else takes care of her. I would never want my clients to worry that their pets are not being taken care of.

“Vada was awesome! My dog can be very anxious and I always worry about him but Vada communicated so well with me and it was my first trip not worrying the entire time. I am so thankful! She spent so much time with him and kept him very happy!”
