About: I have three pups of my own and am trusted by friends and neighbors to care for their fur babies while they are at work or away from home. I am currently off work for the summer and will have plenty of flexibility and time to care for your pup while you are away. I have a large fenced in yard where your pup can play and a dog friendly home where your dog will have access to the furniture and cozy places. I also have two small dogs to keep your pet company during their stay.
“Victoria was very attentive to all of Peaches’ needs, even though Peaches never showed her mouthy, fuzzy face. My home was very respected and was as if we hadn’t been gone. Victoria went above and beyond by even bringing in our mail and packages. The comfort level and communication was stellar.”
About: I have taken care of cats, dogs, and guinea pigs since I was 11.

I am available any time, including weekends and holidays. I will keep in contact if something comes up such as a family issue or something else. I will feed, clean, and walk your friendly pet. I will play with them in your backyard or in your house (and make sure we don’t make a mess in your house), I want to make sure that they are happy.
About: I love and get along with most animals. Would love to add some play time, or lap sitting time when I visit to care for your pet.

About: We are Larry and Jen. We love all things furry. • We've lived in our home (on a dead-end county road) for 30 years. • There have always been dogs (big and small) and cats inside our home. • Some may say we love our pets more than our kids. :P • I (Jen) own my an online business and work part-time at home. • Larry works in New Paris, IN, four days per week. He comes home every day for lunch. • In our home, we currently have two dogs: a 9-mo-old cattle doodle (who loves everything and everyone) and a 14-yr-old toy schnauzer heading toward the rainbow bridge. Our pets are always spayed/neutered/vaccinated/etc. • We have a big backyard with a small portion fenced in to keep our pets safe. We also have a fenced-in pool (all dogs welcome). • Our kids are all married, and the grandchildren live 900 miles away. So, most of the time, it's just us here. • Our home is set up for pet care with room for cages and play yards. Our upstairs and downstairs are both gated off (we don't use either). • We have a mid-size doggie door that leads from the house to the fenced yard.

Additionally, all dietary needs will be taken care of carefully and accurately. Exercise, quality time and care with your pet, and the utmost respect for your home are non-negotiables.
About: Peace of mind is priceless; I’m here to provide it for you and your pet. My beloved boys passed away a few years ago; it gives me great joy to care for your dogs while you are away. As a dog owner with 30 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and horses, I understand how important it is to create a loving, safe space while you're away. Previously, I owned and managed a horse boarding facility in Goshen for 15+ years, where I cared for up to 20 horses alongside countless dogs and cats. I work from home full-time, allowing me to provide dedicated, attentive care for your pet. Whether it’s snuggles, treats, or frequent walks and potty breaks, your furry friend will be well-loved and cared for as if they were my own. I’ve even been called a “dog whisperer” by some!

Your pet is welcome on the furniture, on adventures, and in my heart. Thank you for trusting me with your beloved family member! 🐾 I work from home full-time, which allows me the flexibility to provide attentive care for your pet throughout the day. From morning walks and playtime to mid-day snuggles and evening potty breaks, I can easily integrate your pet's needs into my routine. I ensure they receive plenty of love, exercise, and attention while keeping their schedule consistent and comforting. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities! I live in a quite, safe neighborhood where your pet will be able to have plenty on potty breaks and outside time for walks. I do work full time, however I’m able to come home on my lunch hour for a potty break for your pet.

About: I am currently unavailable until April 8th, 2020 due to a study service trip with Goshen College. Feel free to contact me, but know you will not receive a response until April 8th. Thank you for understanding. I have no professional experience with dog care, however I have cared for numerous pets over the last 15 years of my life (I'm 21 now) and have loved every bit of it. I am looking to get some extra cash by doing something I love while in college. I love taking dogs to the park to play for hours and then snuggling up with them later because they are so tired. It's my favorite thing to do is tire a dog out so much that all it does is want to sleep later (kind of like a kid, haha). Really just looking for an excuse to spend time with animals. Professionally speaking, I am a student in college studying Sociology and Psychology. I am a part time lifeguard/supervisor, a swim coach, and part time data and research assistant at a local nonprofit organization. I anticipate a Spring 2020 graduation

I make sure eating and drinking bowls are clean for the next use, and if its a cat, I make sure that their litter box is clean for next use also.

My dogs are very active and she tires them out every time - running, fetching, playing, etc. My boston terrier LOVES Emma. Since she started coming to pick her up for play sessions a couple times a month, my puppy gets so excited every time she's here. I believe that the fact that my dogs love her and are eager to see her to go play with her, says more than what I could ever put down into words. Highly recommend!!”
