About: With over a decade of hands on animal care experience, I provide dependable walks and attentive home visits rooted in patience, consistency, and genuine care. My experience in animal shelters, professional grooming, and veterinary medicine has allowed me to work with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, helping me understand their individual needs, adapt to different personalities, and remain calm in new or challenging situations. . Clear communication is one of my top priorities. After every walk or drop in, you’ll receive detailed updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I pay attention to the little things, from changes in energy and appetite to shifts in mood or behavior, because those details often matter most. . Whether you need recurring walks, midday check ins, or dependable care while you’re away, I show up on time, respect your home, and help maintain the routines your pet knows and trusts. As the owner of a very smart senior poodle, I understand the trust it takes to place your pet in someone else’s care. My goal is to build that trust through consistency, attentiveness, and open communication, while providing the kind of care that gives both pets and their people peace of mind. I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the week. Whether you need recurring walks, drop-in visits, or last-minute care, I prioritize clear communication and dependable service. My goal is to keep your pet on as consistent a schedule as possible. I follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any household guidelines you provide. Every pet is unique, and I’m happy to accommodate the little details that help them feel comfortable and at home. Whether that’s a favorite walking route, a special bedtime routine, or even a specific way they like their meals prepared, I’m happy to help.

About: I have owned a dog my entire life. I have lived with four, including our old foster dog. I am a kitten foster with Humane Indiana since 2020. Since then, I have fostered over 30 kittens. I am used to the hard work that comes with taking care of animals, and more than happy to do so. I am currently a full time college student so will have time to take care of your pet before, after, and in between my classes. My weekends are pretty free. I have a fenced in backyard along with one dog (king charles spaniel). He is very friendly but can stay separate if need be. I have four cats that are used to other animals with my fostering experience. They will stay away from dogs or can be in the basement.

About: I have taken care of animals for years, I have experience as a veterinary intern and as a volunteer at a cat cafe. I also have had the pleasure of owning multiple pets, 3 dogs and a cat. I’m currently working part time and about to start summer break from my university! I have one cat who I take of. So I am extremely available. I have a fenced in yard and have a cat that I feed and clean up after, I bathe, feed, and provide love and attention to my grandmas dog. In my clients home I’m there to provide their pets with comfort and reliability while there owners are you.

About: I have experience caring for a variety of pets with different needs and routines. I have taken care of a 1-year-old cat along with 3 other adult cats, including a cat who required at least 30 minutes of playtime and interaction every day. I have also cared for a large dog who ate home-cooked soup mixed with his food at specific feeding times, as well as a husky who stayed in an air-conditioned dog house unit and required daily vitamins and attentive care. I am good at following direction for the desired care you and your pet need. I work remotely and any activities I plan I would plan around a schedule if at all with the pet in mind. I will plan in advance for the openings I have in my schedule to permit me to be with the pet. I typically stay in the pets home to create a less stressful environment for the pet and go about its daily routine as instructed by the pet owner. I will stay as long as required by the pet owner or stay in a guest bedroom all day depending on what makes the pet owner most comfortable with.

About: Growing up I had a dog, and I have pet sat for neighbors, friends and coworkers. I love to be outside and play, and will make sure your dog has the most fun while being the most safe 😊 I am in grad school, so my schedule changes per semester! I am always free mornings and nights, and anytime on weekends. Let me know what you need and I should be able to work it out! I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether we’re on a walk or I’m just dropping in! I stick to the pets regular schedule and make sure they have lots of affection and play!

About: My experience has been mostly my family and friends. I have taken their animals on walks, bathed them, fed them, played with them. Took them to parks and even trained them on new skills. Since I just graduated I have very open availability and ready to help. I am very organized and dependable, I value time management, my career/education, and most importantly taking care of people and animals. I am currently waiting for the new school year to roll around and continue my education so my schedule is free. I wake up early to work out but that time can be flexible depending on if I have a pet to watch. I keep the animals on the schedule they are used to. Feed them, fill water, walks, clean behind them, playtime, medicine if they need. Also litter box maintenance for cats. Also making sure we’re safe in the house and my phone near me to contact the owners if needed.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 5. I have had 2 dogs in my life time and I just really love animals. I have a lot of experience taking care of animals. I have a pretty open schedule and available a lot. My schedule is pretty open and I will have lots of time to take care of your animals. I take pride in making sure I have time for animals because they are very important for me. I make sure that whenever I am taking care of a dog or cat they are supervised and especially if they are outside. I will also make sure they have water and food and they use the bathroom regularly.

About: I’ve had 2 dogs in my family since I was in middle school. I was very hands on in potty training when they were puppies. I’ve also gone to a lot of dog training classes in the past that taught me how to form healthy relationships with dogs. I am very flexible since I work from remotely Monday through Friday. I also have open availability on the weekends. Having a job that supports me working wherever allows me to provide more time to sit. Having a conversation with each owner really gives me insight into the dogs routine. I always ask what time their meals are as well as their walking schedule. I also like to ask home owners where all the dog’s items are located. I like to provide the dogs with a lot of affection and playtime.
