Dog Walkers in Gem, IN

About: I've had dogs since I was born and throughout my entire life. I've had puppies, senior dogs, and all big dogs! I've been sitting for neighbors and friends for years, too. I love to play inside or outside. My specialty is cuddling the love bugs. I'm currently working a very flexible part time job and I have a reliable vehicle, so pet care fits very easily into my day! I keep a close eye on all the pets (mostly because I'm trying to get them to hang out with me). I set reminders and have notes to keep on top of things and never forget a step! I am very attentive to my surroundings when I am sitting so I can keep the love bugs safe and comfortable.

“Gabriel was the best! He took time to get Luna to trust him and didn't rush her. Took great care of her and had a super nice walk. We're so grateful ☺️”

About: I'm a huge animal lover and was lucky enough to grow up with lots of pets from rodents to dogs to horses. I've walked big (150lb+) dogs, small dogs, and everything in between with no issues. Until I was 15 years old, my dad had my siblings and I convinced he was allergic to cats because he didn't want us asking to get one. Jokes on him that the majority of us are now cat parents. While I've had my menace of a cat (I love her to pieces even though she's turning my hair as gray as hers) for only a few years, I've still been around cats throughout my life and am attuned to their particular brand of affection. I have experience pet-sitting from bunnies to a pack of seven high energy dogs. If you're looking for a non-dog or cat sitter, give me a shot! I'm very determined to give pets the best care possible, and if I'm unsure of any instructions will not hesitate to ask for clarification no matter how menial the task may appear. No animal's needs are too particular or niche for me. Must walk counterclockwise around the block? Easy. Food must be microwaved for 12 seconds, but stop it with one second on the clock? No problem. Got to pretend their medicine is human food that was "accidentally" spilled on the floor and I need to "rush" to pick it up before Fido gets it? Done. I'm currently working part-time and am open to one-time, long-term, and everything in between. My availability leans more towards the morning or evening, but I'm happy to work with you to best fit your care requirements. I do my best to keep my calendar updated, especially for weekends, but if you're wondering if I'm available please don't hesitate to ask! No amount of instructions are too much for me! I once left three hand written pages of notes on how to care for my hamster. I will follow them to the letter, and not hesitate to ask if I have any questions. Ensuring your family member is happy, healthy, and comfortable in their home is my number one priority.

“Lauren is amazing! She responded quickly when I first reached out and made time for a meet and greet, which immediately put me and my pup at ease. When she takes my dog for a walk. she always shares thoughtful updates and the cutest photos. It’s clear she truly loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. My dog adores her, and I felt so comfortable knowing he was in such great hands. I’ll definitely continue using Lauren as my dog walker—she’s the best!”

“Thank you so much Kristina! We can’t wait to have you back!!”

About: I have been a regular pet sitter for friends, family, and coworkers since I was a teenager. I have experience with large or small dogs, elderly dogs, cats, and pets that need medication or other accommodations. I have experience with dog-sitting for up to two weeks at a time. This has sometimes included, but is not limited to, administering medication, cleaning up messes inside and outside, walking, feeding, and bathing. Ensuring the safety, health, and happiness of each pet I take care of is my top priority and it is one of my favorite things to do in the world! I do not have the same schedule weekly, so I will constantly update my availability. I only know my availability up to 3 weeks in advance. Unless I have to work very early the next day, I am available for overnights at least 3 days a week (typically). I am unable to have pets at my house because I live with a family member’s dog that does not do well with other animals. Please give me any and all instructions! I will make sure to follow any routine that I can for your pet to be comfortable. I will provide as many updates/photos as requested.

“Shelby was amazing with our dog! As first time Rover users, we will most definitely be reaching out for her services again.”

“WOW. Reliable, professional, friendly, and skilled, Taylor is extraordinary! Taylor has been taking our dog Gracie on daily walks while we are at work and even incorporating leash training into her sessions. In just one week, Taylor has bonded with Gracie and worked with us to significantly to improve her leash manners. We are astonished! Taylor has also been exceptional in her communication, sending us daily updates with photos, which are so cute and appreciated. Most importantly, Taylor is extremely thoughtful and caring, which comes through in her interactions with us and Gracie. We would recommend Taylor without hesitation to anyone!”

“I found Lorrie on Rover when I needed someone to walk my Emmee after my foot surgery. She did such a wonderful job!! Emmee took to her right away. Lorrie showed such love to my baby. I knew she was safe. I wouldn't hesitate to ask Lorrie to care for my Emmee again! Nancy T. Fishers, IN”

About: Hi! I’m Hope, a dedicated animal lover based in Greenfield, IN 🐾 I’ve had dogs my entire life and have worked with them professionally for the past 6 years. I also spent nearly 2 years working at a dog boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I offer drop-in visits that include feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, and quality time with your pet. I’m also happy to include a short walk during visits if time allows or provide dedicated walks as needed. I work full-time during the day, so I’m available for consistent morning and evening visits with the potential for mid day. I prioritize reliability, communication, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’m especially comfortable with larger dogs and always aim to treat every pet like my own. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re gone. I’d love to set up a meet & greet to make sure it’s a great fit for you and your pet 🤍 I work full time Monday- Friday 7:30-3:30. I am mostly available Friday-Sunday but will be available for potty breaks throughout the week day as well. I currently have three dogs. I have a Labrador, Golden Retriever, and a Beagle. I am used to big dogs so I will have no problem handling those big pups of yours.

“Lucy is so sweet. I will be working with her again. Amazing overall!”

“Grace was amazing! I rescued a dog that has been very timid,scared,ready to bite. She worked with her on their walks twice each day and even at my hotel room when Indy didn’t want to leave her space, Grace stayed and comforted Indy every day and built a trust and relationship with Indy. and within a few days was able to build a trust with Indy who obviously has had minimal human contact or care,zero training, was left to roam and survive alone,trauma from being left alone in the middle of nowhere in Indiana, obviously scared of being the great dog that she is. But Grace helped Indy across a bridge that most people wouldn’t have tried to do. Not only is Grace a great dog walker, she’s a dog lover.. Great to work with, I have n zero complaints and a list of things she did outside of her walks that I should compliment her for that she did out of the kindness of her heart for Indy! Amazing person to have with your pet”

About: I will genuinely treat your pups like my own! I’ve had pets ever since I can remember - dogs, cats, & even fish. Today, I'm a proud plant & cat mom. Because I love traveling myself, I totally know how stressful it is to leave your babies behind & how important it is to have reliable, trustworthy help you can count on. I love taking dogs on adventures, whether that’s hitting trails to burn off energy or just enjoying a long, sniff filled neighborhood walk. I have experience with all kinds of personalities from high energy pups who want to play non stop, to sweet seniors who just want a slow stroll & some good couch cuddles. I love sending lots of photo updates & making sure your dogs feel safe, happy, & loved! I have a super flexible schedule. My days are open enough that I can easily prioritize structured potty breaks & long walks, without having to rush back to a strict 9-5 desk job. In my home your pet becomes a part of the family! My place is a pet friendly environment where they can fully relax & get cozy. While I don’t have a fence, I have a massive yard with a secure lead, so the dogs can get plenty of space while staying safe. Plus, they’ll get tons of attention & plenty of couch cuddles! If I’m coming to your house for a walk or a drop in, I’ll treat your space with total respect. I’ll strictly follow whatever routine you have for feeding, crating, or locking up. I'm always mindful of the little things like wiping muddy paws if it's rainy & making sure the water bowl is totally fresh before I leave. Plus, you can definitely count on lots of fun photo updates so you know exactly how great they’re doing! Whether your pet is hanging out at my place or I’m visiting yours, making sure they feel safe and comfortable is my biggest priority.

About: I have always had a pet, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and rats. I love animals and realize the difficulty in leaving your animal babies with someone you trust while you are gone. I take that responsibility very seriously. I recently retired and would like to include in my day, caring for animals whose owners need help when they are gone from the home. I have a fenced yard, and an easy going home environment. I also have two older dogs, 4 indoor kitties, with a total of six cats. They are all pretty laid back.

“Sara is very caring and such a wonderful addition to my tribe for Gus ❤️”
