5. Brianna R.
“Brianna did an amazing job and did well with our dogs. She was accommodating and understanding of their needs. She does only work within a certain radius, though, and neither of us realized that until too close to time. For this reason, we will not book again.”

About: Sometimes, humans have "ruff" days. And that's okay. I take care of your fur babies so that you can relax and have fun the human way! Hi! I'm A.J., and I love dogs. I’ve been dogsitting since 2017, and I've lived in a multiple-dog household since I was born. I've grown up taking care of dogs from the moment they enter the world on into old age. Playtime is an absolute must for this household, and payment for potty breaks is accepted in the form of tail wags and sloppy kisses. If you decide to book with me, you can be sure that your pooch will get plenty of time outside, lots of play and cuddles, and many happy memories for you in the form of photos and videos. Rope toys! Balls! Chew toys! Frisbees! We have it all. Plus plenty of opportunities for hugs, kisses, and treats! No aggressive breeds, please, but all ages are welcome! If you qualify and are interested, schedule a meet-and-greet with me today! I have a very accommodating schedule. If house-sitting isn't going to work for you, I love taking dogs out for walks, so we can arrange something like that, too! NOTE: All dogs must be up-to-date on their immunizations! I currently work full time with a very flexible schedule that I can change depending on your needs. I am never gone from the house more than four hours at a time. I’m very concerned with safety and comfort while I dogsit. Your pup will never be without indoor supervision longer than 4 hours at a time (if I needed to leave for work), and will never be outside without supervision at all. I check all fences for holes before I stay anywhere, and any walks taken will be on harnesses and leashed.
7. Jaydyn B.
“Jaydyn has always taken amazing care of my cat! She always makes sure he gets lots of love. She goes above and beyond with making sure hes fed on time and his litter box is clean.”
8. Sara H.
“I actually met Rey, Sara's Golden Retriever, before I met Sara; just a couple of seconds sooner but, hey, who's counting! I met Sara in August of 2021 at an accelerated leadership program for incoming Ball State freshmen. From day one, her outgoing and caring personality immediately struck me and we have been best friends ever since. Her bond with animals is personal and loving throughout, she wants what is best for those companions that we share the world with. Sara is the kind of person who slows the car down and pulls over on the side of the road to make sure that the dog we just drove by has a home and is safe, and if they don't, Sara wants to help them in any way she can. Any animal she takes into her care will be treated as one of her own with kindness, compassion, and joy.”
9. Lilli S.
“Lilli took amazing care of my senior cat. She kept me updated and sent pictures. He was very relaxed when I got home because he got so much love. She also left my apartment spotless which was greatly appreciated.”
10. Erin D.
“Erin was awesome with Anubis and very flexible when my plans had changed. I will definitely have her watch Anubis again knowing he will be in excellent hands.”
11. Mason H.
“Mason was fantastic! There are not enough words to describe the care he provided to our two dogs and cat! We were worried about one of our dogs due to that dog being apprehensive to new people. Mason came over to introduce himself to the dogs and communicated throughout his time housesitting!”
12. Lisa B.
“Lisa gave great updates, followed my dogs’ schedules properly, even cleaned up some messes which I am so appreciative of! She gave them lots of love and care! She was great!”
13. Melinda G.
“Melinda took care of our dog and rabbit during a vacation. She spent time giving them attention, and was able to administer medicine to our rabbit. She kept us updated with any concerns. I would recommend Melinda as a pet/house sitter.”
14. Mary C.
“Mary was great with Thor, our senior German Shepherd, while we were away for two nights. And he loved her too! She even took great care of our house.”
15. Bree B.
“Bree was wonderful! And most important, Sophie was a happy girl and well taken care of. Bree’s experience is such a plus and, after just a short time, we felt comfortable and assured that Sophie would be in good hands. We will definitely use her services again.”
16. Hannah H.
“Hannah helped me out with a last minute request when my sitter got COVID. She was awesome!! Kept me updated and took great care of my pets. Highly recommend booking with Hannah!”
17. Amy N.
“Amy was amazing! We have a 15 year old bichon who gets anxious when we are not home. Amy was so good to our little guy! He warmed right up to her! Amy was a fantastic house guest. We would definitely use Amy again and I would highly recommend her.”
18. Jordan H.
“Jordan took great care of our pup. He spent quality time with him and was very responsive even while we were traveling. His stay was over the holidays and even then Charlie was given plenty of quality time.”
19. Amanda P.
“Amanda was great watching our 2 older dogs and cat for a week! We would definitely use her again. Highly recommend!”
