“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.”


“Jordan was great! She gave us frequent updates and photos of our dog and cat while we were away. She was also a very kind guest in our home. We will definitely be reaching out to her any other time our animals need care!”


About: Hi, My name is Sierra! I love animals because they're loyal and the best reason to get up in the mornings! I have never met a dog I didn't immediately fall in love with. I have watch my friends and family pets when they have gone out of town. I could never discriminate against dogs or cats, but cats do hold a special place in my heart because I have always one or several growing up. You are constantly learning when taking care of animals, but most importantly they teach us to love unconditionally. I couldn't imagine my life not being surrounded by furry friends, so I can't wait to meet you and your pet family! I'm currently in between jobs so I have more time to dedicate to checking in your fur babies and provide the best boops around town! I currently live in a house with a fenced in yard but will never leave them unattended while chasing squirrels, and getting much needed exercise.

“Dhara housesat the dogs while I was on a week vacation. The dogs hada great time and she left the house clean and made my vacation more enjoyable by making sure my fur babies were safe and happy too. So thankful!”


“Jenna stepped up when I needed her. She did a great job and I appreciated her attention to detail. I would use Jenna again and recommend her to anyone looking for quality care.”


About: I’ve been pet sitting and house sitting for many years for family, friends, and neighbors. I have experience house sitting, pet sitting, dog walking, and lots of experience with cats. My most recent pet I had for nearly 9 years was a cat I found at the shelter- we became inseparable. I’ve spent the last year traveling the US in my self converted camper van, and I’ve felt that the lifestyle doesn’t suite having a pet at this time- so being able to step in and help others with their animal’s needs truly fills a void in my heart! My most memorable pet sitting gig was for a litter of 8 Dutch Shepherd puppies and their momma. I also have experience with senior pet care and enjoy taking pets out and about if the owners would like. I also clean houses on the side which has exposed me to many different kinds of animals in the home and their varying personalities, needs, and sensitivities. Please let me know if you have any questions. Looking forward to being of service to you and your pet/home! 😌 I’m currently working in the surrounding area for a cleaning company. My daytime hours are pretty full doing that, however I am available for evening care as well as overnight care. Let me know if you would like more details regarding my schedule! I recognize what a large responsibility and privilege it is to step into someone else’s home and to care for their pets who have become their family. I treat each animal and home as if they were my own and try my very best to accommodate the specific needs of your pet whether it be crating, potty, medication schedules, anxiety, play time/favorite toys, etc.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and love my 6 year old Aussie like she’s my own flesh and blood. Taking care of dogs is like second nature to me and doesn’t even feel like work! I work fully remote and am available to work from anywhere, so I can handle dogs who need a little more attention or a few more potty breaks easily! I want the dogs I’m sitting to feel comfortable in their own homes, so I’ll generally follow whatever pre-set rules there are for the household!

About: I grew up with all different species of pets and am comfortable and more than happy to care for any pet you have! I have loved animals my entire life! I have experience with companion animals, pocket pets, and reptiles/exotics. I worked at a doggy daycare center for two years and have professional veterinary clinical experience for three years total, so I am most knowledgeable about animal behavior, health, and wellness. Bonus: I graduated from Purdue University and have a Bachelor’s Degree in Animal Science! I have always had a huge passion for animals of all breeds and sizes! I have dog sat for friends and family, and would absolutely love to have furry friends over to give them lots of love while you’re gone! I am currently not employed, which is subject to change. I have open availability M-F as well as weekends for all of your pet needs! My biggest concern is to give your pets a safe, stress-free, and fun atmosphere. I will give your pet constant supervision and ensure he/she is well fed, given fresh water, and LOTS of love! I will provide walks for high energy dogs, give baths, and trim nails all upon request. I will make sure your pet comes home happy and healthy. I will send picture/video updates throughout your pet’s stay to show you how much fun we are having together! I know how difficult it can be to leave your pet in the hands of a stranger, and I am here to decrease your anxiety and give you more peace of mind by knowing your pet is being treated like one of my own—FAMILY!

About: I love pets! I have had dogs and cats since I was little and have always enjoyed sitting for my family and friends.

About: I love taking care of furry friends! Family and friends have relied of me to pop in and take their fur babies on walks, get them all clean, and make sure they get their tummies full. Not only do I take care of pets but also people! I am a registered nurse with a passion for helping others! Have a last minute trip you need to go on don’t worry I offer same day services. Just send me a message and we can work something out. I love taking care of furry friends in my free time! Request your time and I will let you know if I am available to watch your fur baby! I treat everyone with kindness including your fur babies. A day with me your fur baby can expect to have water always available. We will take a half mile walk and play for 30 minutes. There will be opportunities for cuddles and snuggles. You will need to provide the food for your baby with instructions on how much and how often to feed. I do require that all fur babies be potty trained as I rent the space that I live in.

“Kendall was amazing with our boy!! He is going blind so he was a little standoffish at first but she knew exactly how to handle his idiosyncrasies. She was very communicative and sent plenty of photos and updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again. She is amazing with animals!”


“Grace was very nice and we felt very comfortable leaving the care of our fur babies in her hands. 3 labs can be a handful. We were able to take an overnight trip and leave them at home so their routine did not change. For us that helped ease our minds so we enjoyed our trip more. Thanks Grace! ?”


About: I have taken care of cats for the last five years for friends and family! I love spending quality time with them and have experience with a variety of different needs. I am currently in the middle of the job search and have a lot of flexibility. I will be able to stay overnight with your pets! I am attentive to the needs of the animals that I care for and I am sure to keep the environment clean. This includes regularly scooping litter boxes and sticking to a consistent feeding schedule when needed.

“Shannon watched our dog, while my husband and I were getting married. She sent us many photos, and I knew Ivy was in good hands. We were able to enjoy our evening with ease that our beloved dog was happy!”


About: I've had at least one pet my whole life. I grew up with an older dog that gave me a safe and comforting feeling. I am well experienced with different personalities and ages. I make sure my pets have been taken care of and also played with, that they feel loved and safe as my first dog had made me feel. I wake up fairly early at 6am to 7am. I make sure my animals are let out and fed soon after. I make sure throughout the day they have been given plenty of time to exercise and play before bedtime. The first thing I would do when first meeting a new friend is to not rush into it. I'd get to know them and their routine especially cats because they don't like their routine changed. They would have all their needs met even if it was specific on time and amounts. I would give additional attention and care for your pet because they experience a lot of stress while their owner is away.

About: I’ll follow exactly what your animals need to be the happiest while you’re away! I’m very flexible and willing to stay with animals that need it! I am currently doing this full time so I’m very flexible with when and where I am able to take care of pets around town! I prefer to take care of pets in their own home, if they need someone over night I can stay with them or just hang out!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years — my own pups, plus dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. I love every part of it, from daily walks and mealtime routines to giving extra attention to senior dogs who need a little more help. Whether it’s belly rubs, medications, or just keeping them company, I’m here to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m home for the summer from college and have a super flexible schedule right now. Since I’m not juggling classes or assignments, I have plenty of time to give your pup the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I’m available and happy to help! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow care instructions closely, keep a watchful eye during walks and playtime, and make sure your dog stays in a secure, stress-free environment. You can trust that your pup will be treated with the same love and attention I give my own.


About: I have worked with dog rescues since 2018, and have adopted 4 dogs and a cat of my own. I am wanting to help others in and around my community with their pets! My full time job is Monday through Thursday, and I have the capability to care for dogs prior to 9am, and after 8pm. I also can make a stop during the day at almost any requested time for a midday potty break. I will follow directions to ensure I meet the expectations of each individual client. I can exercise your dog whether you want your dog to be leash walked, or to have play time in a fenced yard. I will adhere to feeding schedules, and ensure proper amounts are given to each individual dog. I am also able to give oral and injectable medications as needed.

Rachel B.
“I had a wonderful experience with Rachel who watch our two Boxers. Our girl CJ was an old lady who was prone to accidents and Tank who was easily 90lbs of energy. Rachel was communicative, responsible, and clearly experienced with large, active breeds. She took the time to get to know CJ and Tanks schedule and needs. The dogs were happy and well cared for. I don't think they missed me at all. It's not always easy to find someone who can confidently handle two big dogs, but she did it with ease and genuine affection. Even more recently, our Dutch Shepherd had a litter of puppies! Rachel helped watch the pups from when they were just a few days old until they were ready to go home. She handled them, made sure they nursed, mixed their gruel, took them through stimulation protocols, and didn't hesitate to clean up after their messes. Rachel has proven herself capable to take care of tough breeds (i.e., Dutchies and Boxers) at every stage of life from new born pups to senior dogs. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter.”


Rachel H.
“I can’t recommend Rachel enough as a dog sitter! She’s incredibly responsible, caring, and truly loves animals. I've seen firsthand how patient and attentive she is with dogs, whether it's making sure they get enough exercise, sticking to their feeding schedule, or just giving them plenty of love and attention. She has a natural connection with animals and always treats them like part of the family. If you’re looking for someone you can trust completely with your furry friend, Rachel is the one.”


Courtney C.
“Courtney is such a kind soul and always comes home from work at the vets talking about all different kinds of animals she sees every day and how happy it makes her to keep them healthy. She truly loves animals and would adopt them all if she could!”

Charles L.
“Charles was my preferred cat sitter for four years while I lived in Indianapolis. I had two temperamental cats who did not get along with each other, let alone other human beings. He won them over with his persistence and care, often sending me photographs as evidence while I was away (one of those still graces my home screen six years later). I could not recommend Charles more highly (and he also doesn't let a garden die in the heat of the summer so that is a bonus).”

Elizabeth P.
“Elizabeth has watched both of my senior dogs (14,12). The love and care she showed was amazing. She gave them so many scratching sessions and they loved all of their attention. She even asked if she could do 1:1 small walks with them. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth. And although I only asked for dog care, she went above and beyond and did light house cleaning as well.”




Valerie E.
“Valerie has a real passion for animals. She will love your dog more than you do and take wonderful care of them in your absence. She is responsible and trustworthy. Mary E”
