About: I'm an incurable animal lover, and have lots of experience caring for dogs and cats, as well as snakes, turtles, frogs, salamanders, fish, gerbils, hamsters, guinea pigs and ponies. I have had a lifetime of close, loving relationships with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I'm a recently retired naturalist and am a wildlife biologist by degree. I've had dogs and cats for pets all of my life. My most recent pet was a beautiful lab mix, Tucker. He was my best friend and constant companion for 13 years but recently crossed the rainbow bridge. So I have plenty of free time, and am ready to spoil your pet with lots of love and fun! I can visit your pet in your home up to 3 times daily to walk, feed, play and cuddle as needed by your fur baby. I can also stay overnight, or I can bring your pet to stay with me at my lake house.

About: Hi there! I am currently the Executive Director of our local animal shelter. Prior to that position I worked at a spay/neuter vet clinic for 5 years in Indianapolis. Total animal welfare experience of over 10 years! I would be glad to stop by your house to care for your pets while you are at work/vacation or take your dog for a walk. While I am unable to stay overnight at your house while you are away for an extended period of time, I am willing to stop by several times during the day and before bed to care for your house and animals! I am very experienced in handling all different types of dogs (and kitties). I have bathing experience and am trained in giving medications. I would be happy to show off my impressive resume :) Additionally, I have two dogs of my own, two cats, and 3 children. Why I love dog sitting I've been a dog lover ever since I can remember. I can remember begging my mom if I could pet every dog we passed on the street, emptying out my piggy bank every month for the local animal shelter, and writing all my school reports on dogs. Throughout school I was a volunteer at local shelters, in college I was the student Volunteer Coordinator for the local shelter, and now I work as the Director of our local shelter! Dogs (and cats) are my life! My experience administering medication Yep. I have lots of experience. I am flexible and can work around your schedule! I am not available between the night hours of 9pm-7am but daytime I am free to help! Stress free is important! I like to stick as closely to the routine as they are used to with their owners. I will update owners as often as they’d like!

“Maddie has been AMAZING with our anxious dog! She is always communicating with me, and our dog absolutely loves her! Would recommend 100%!”

About: I've worked in multiple animal shelters walking dogs, feeding all animals, playing with them, cleaning up after them but most of all showing them the love they need and deserve I am currently on leave from the US Air Force and have plenty of time to visit and take care of your pups or cats. I am able to take out the dogs, clean litter boxes, play with the animals, feed them, walk them, and give medications if needed. I can also lock up the house and make sure the dogs or cats are crated or put up before I leave if needed.

About: I’ve taken care of several animals, my own and family members since I was 10. I’ve raised and trained a few puppies over the years as well as my own dog who is now two. He the most well behaved boy I know! I work for DoorDash so I make my own schedules I decide when I work and when I don’t so I have a lot of free time to take care of and play with all your beautiful animals! I have a 3 bedroom house with a large dining room and living room as well as a good sized backyard. It has an 8 food privacy fence!

About: I have two huskies and a mastiff! I absolutely love them to death and adore taking care of them. I’d love to help take care of your pets as well! I have years of experience with animals. I want to make this a full time position! I love taking care of pets and making sure they are happy and healthy. I will always make extra time to care for not only my own pets, but your pets as well! I have experience working with pets in other peoples homes. I follow directions thoroughly and I make sure to care for your pets the way you would wish!

About: I've had dogs of all sizes my whole life. From a Yorkie to a 180 pound Saint Bernard! I have taken some basic dog handling care classes and even work in the local shelter with the cats. I'm currently working full time, so I would show up in the morning to check on the animal, during my lunch break if I can, and once I'm off work I would show up as well. Every visit with the animal, I check their eyes, nose, and ears to make sure they aren't getting sick and I also take the morning to care for their food and water needs.

About: I have been involved in several volunteer groups for pets and rescue organizations. I’m sure I could help your peace of mind when you need. I’m currently working for Rover full time. I’m looking to make this a career path and I’m trying to earn more than happiness from Rover. My apartment has a private entrance and I have parks and trails to take them near me that are secure. I have multiple options for boarding.

“Juan was on time. My Teo is always so excited to see him. Which means so much to me. Juan went above and beyond he even walked him a little more than he needed too. Overall a wonderful experience. Will recommend to anyone!!”

About: I am a 19 year old, currently a stay at home doggie mom. I was previously a Kennel Technician for 3 years at a Training, Boarding, and Grooming facility. I take pride in treating all dogs like my own I do not currently work so I have lots of time on my hands to care for you babies!! I offer mom-sat but take Sundays to myself I treat all dogs and cats like my own. I will cleanup any accidents they have prior to my arrival. And promise to get as much energy out of your dogs and/or cats possible

About: I’ve grown up arounds dogs my whole life, and worked in a grooming salon for 3 years, so i have plenty of experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes ! I currently work part-time, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I have an very open schedule Thursday-Sunday and would love to hang out with ur fur-babies! Your pets safety is my #1 priority when entering, visiting, and leaving your home and while on walks. I want you and your pet to have the best experience possible (:

About: I've been a pet owner my entire life from dogs and cats to birds, fish, hamsters, hedgehogs, sugar gliders, and more! I occasionally pet sit for family members on vacation. I am also in pursuit of a training certificate. I work from home full time as an accountant and get to make my own hours! This enables me to be flexible and fit your pet care needs into my daily schedule with ease. I am not currently offering overnight visits. However, I can drop into your home to check on your pets periodically through the day and night, I can take them for walks, rides in the car, bathe them, feed them, or simply keep them company and play with them!

About: I have had dogs since I was a child and have over 35 years experience of caring for my own pets and even helped in rescuing and rehoming dogs who have been dumped and left in wanted. I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes and demeanor, from the little dogs who think they are ferocious monsters to the ones who are the big couch potato babies. I work full time now but it is still a daily requirement for me to feed my big fur babies and I can still work in a schedule/ if I’m not home my wife is able to take care of your babies needs as well. Our son, and two other fur babies Samson and Critter can see too it that they also get plenty of play time. I have an unfenced yard but I can place on a lead for your baby to do their business and a 3 year old lab who is a huge baby, I also am married with a son who will definitely help your fur baby burn off some energy. I walk my own dog almost daily and have no problem walking yours. My dog does stay in a crate when we are gone for a period and only then, but crating is always your choice if you crate yours that’s fine if not he/she is free to run the house and even lay on any of the furniture. We use covers.

About: every sitter loves animals, but I really do adore animals and I love being able to just enjoy and meet new animals. My special skills with animals is to cuddle! I love making sure the fur babies are taking care of with love and respect! I currently work a full time job, M-T from 7 to 5, which is the main reason of dog sitting on the weekends! I can do full weeks just need to know ahead of time to be able to discuss with work! The best option is to have them at the client’s home, animals are always comfortable when at home and a place they know! It’s already scary that a stranger is in there house but much better than a scary car ride into a new house!

About: What sets me apart as a pet caregiver is my hands-on experience with training and caring for my own dogs. As a proud owner of a Pitbull and a Great Dane, I understand the unique needs of different breeds and how to create a comfortable, safe, and stimulating environment for them. My passion for animals goes beyond just feeding and walking – I’m dedicated to ensuring your pet feels loved and cared for while you’re away, and I have the skills to provide extra support for pets who might need it. Whether it’s basic obedience or more specialized attention, I bring a personalized approach that makes sure your pet is treated like family. As a student, I’ve structured my schedule to allow flexibility when it comes to pet care. I can easily accommodate pet boarding any day of the week, or stay at your home to ensure your pet receives the attention and companionship they need while you’re away. I understand how important it is to have a reliable and caring person looking after your pet, so I make sure to prioritize their needs while balancing my studies. Whether it’s a few hours or several days, I’m here to offer consistent, loving care when it’s needed most. I provide loving, hands-on care for pets both in my own home and in yours. As someone who truly loves spending time with dogs, I make sure they feel right at home by playing with them, cuddling, and offering lots of affection. I’m happy to give them a bath if needed and take them out regularly for potty breaks, making sure they stay comfortable and well-cared for. Whether it’s keeping them entertained or providing some quiet time, I tailor my care to each pet’s personality and needs, ensuring they feel safe and loved while you’re away.
