About: I have taken care of cats, dogs, and guinea pigs since I was 11. I have had neighbors rely on me to take care of their dogs, and I have had my own family pets to take care of by feeding, bathing them and taking them on walks. 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've taken care of pets since I can remember. This past year I have started dog sitting for friends and family and they have trusted me to care for their animals like I would for my own. I am currently working part-time and am enrolled in college, doing mostly online work. I am able to work around my work schedule and leave periodically if needed to care for a pet. I make sure to have lots of outside time with my own pets. We play fetch and go on walks daily. I have a fenced in yard to make sure my pets are safe.

“Christy does a great job - highly recommend”

About: For my 10th birthday I got a golden retriever. She was my best friend and sparked such a love for animals in me. I’ve taken care of every farm animal you could think of, every kind of dog ranging in every size, I love all cats and have cared for many as well! I’m doing schooling online and I’m extremely flexible on a day to day basis and on weekends as well. I wake up early and go to sleep early typically so I can adjust to whatever feeding schedule any animal may be on. I have a very large property with woods and lots of room to run around. I live on a road I take daily walks on. I have a large house and a barn outside as well. I’m flexible depending on what your fur baby is most comfortable with. I can offer a lot of exercise, cuddles, they can sleep in a crate if that makes them comfortable or they can sleep out of the crate.

“Irene is a good communicator and is flexible. She walked my dog the day after I booked her and I appreciated her for doing it on short notice. She clearly loves dogs and is looking to pursue a career working with them. She is patient and kind and I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”

About: I’m a registered nurse who has owned dogs my whole life and has previously worked at a dog kennel. I love dogs and can assure your pets will be safe with me! My schedule is currently wide open. I would prefer a normal 9-5 workday, however I can be flexible. With enough notice I have no problems making time for your fur babies! I understand how important routine is to pets and promise to follow any instructions given. Pets function better and live more stress free lives when they run on their daily routine.

About: I grew up helping out on my friends parents farm. After we moved away my family signed up to foster for the humane society and my love for animals only grew. I’ve helped deliver and care for puppies and kittens. I now have 2 daughters of my own that love animals just as much as I do and our favorite thing to do is go to the humane society to play with the pups and cats 💕 I run my own business and work from home. Both my girls are in school so I have a lot of free time I’d love to use on with helping some furbabies 💕 I live in an apartment right of the millrace so we love walls on the trail! We also love going to the dog park here in goshen because it’s always empty. I will make sure your furbaby is very well cared for in the time they are with me 💕

About: I’ve always been asked to take care of animals by friends and family. I’ve always been asked to pet sit due to my love for animals and my ability to love them as my own. I’m currently working part time and am taking college classes online at Western Governors University! I enjoy the flexibility of pet sitting and how well it works with my schedule and how I also get to build bonds with animals! Fenced in yard with two cats. We do not accept animals that have no experience with cats/ dogs not get along with cats. We also require meet and greets to provide the best care for your animals make sure our home is a good fit.

About: Head out of town with the confidence that you furry one will enjoy excellent care. Our golden doodle loves to welcome guests. And our teenage son is here to take your dog on walks (we’re just off the Goshen millrace), play fetch in our back yard, and generally lavish attention on them. We offer seasonal times mostly. This is focused around times when our son is off school in order to give constant care. The adults also have flexible work schedules ensuring plenty of support for the rhythms of pet care. We keep a tidy home where your pet can relax and play. We make every effort to maintain the rhythms (exercise, feeding, etc) that your pet is accustomed to.

About: I've successfully adopted and trained a shelter dog named Eben. I have taken it upon myself to learn how to train dogs, how they think and how they view the world around them. This isn't just a job for me. This is a passion. It is my personal goal to keep dogs healthy, active and in their homes with loving families. My goal is to keep dogs out of shelters and off the table. I plan on doing this by helping YOU take care of your dogs by making sure they have exercise, enrichment, structured routines and structured play. I have trained a 2yr old dog and a 4 month old puppy in basic obedience, crate training, potty training, basic recall, proximity, socialization and leash walking. These are basic things i have done on my own with my own personal dog as well. I only supply healthy food and treats to any dog under my care, unless i am provided with it. Any special requests can be discussed. I currently work at petco part-time, along with pursuing a career in dog training. I spend most of my free time helping others with their dogs. I bring a calm, loving, trusting and fun presence in order to build trust and a bond with any pet under my care. I can also help reinforce training regiments, diet plans, and other things. Your dogs will be walked, cuddled, played with and given mental stimulation through puzzles, toys, and other things.

About: Animals have been in my life since I was born. Cats, dogs, rodents, fish... even spiders! I've loved and cared for them all. I'm confident around all pets no matter their size or demeanor Working in education, my summers are always guaranteed off so I have plenty of time for your animals! Mornings, afternoons, evenings...even emergency visits! I can do them all. Including WEEKEND AVAILABILITY Any instructions given about your fur baby will be followed to a T. They are my number one priority and will always be treated as such.

About: I can't help but attempt to nurture every animal I come across, from a baby squirrel to adopting my former streetcat (Iroh). In addition to housesitting, catsittting, and dogsitting for a number of people in Indianapolis, just in this past year alone, I've also taken upon the responsibility of self-fostering 3 kittens. Recently, I finished 5 months of bathing/grooming training experience through Petco. This past experience has taught me the importance of pet safety and taught me much about dog care and health, from regular bathing to nutrition. I've taken care of several different species of pets in the past 15 years, including several in/outdoor cats, a rabbit, two hamsters, a chameleon, and a former family Labrador Retriever. Since I was young, I've had a large amount of compassion and consideration for all living critters and creatures. I now spend much my time commiting to reading and research about dogs, cats, and other animals. My experience, multiple-species expertise, and unconditional care creates a space where your pet is not only looked after, but loved on. Being a total free-spirit, I currently possess a large amount of flexibility and an open calendar. Especially around those family holidays. I can offer what few others can in this moment, time, intentionality and availability in pet care. 🗓️✨ As a current cat parent myself, I appreciate when I know my cat is in good hands. This not only relieves my stress, but his as well. I can return to preparing for my trip, meeting, or holiday prep worry-free. I have firsthand experience placing my pet's care into another's hands. It took so much much trial, error, and good luck before I settled on a small roster of people who look out for my baby just as well as I can. My fur child deserves to be just as safe and comfortable in his living arrangements as I am in mine, no matter where I am. Finding that type of care is no small feat either. Assuaging my worries (and his) on top of everything else that traveling demands, can really be the cherry on the top of my stress-out sundae. If you resonate with some of these concerns, then I may be the pet sitter for you. I will read the list of your special care instructions AND follow through on their necessities to soothe your nerves and those of your pet. Given the opportunity, I'd love to be a companion they can count on for meals, play/fun times, walks, and any other special activities you share with your little one. Meanwhile, allowing you to relax and lean into your confidence that your pet is in great hands. So, let me do what is necessary to remedy, not only your anxiety, but your pet's as well. I'd love to be the person for you and your companion. 🤓📝

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.

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

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats since my sophomore year in high school! I’ve never had an issue with a pet and love being able to help :) I’m currently on my summer break so I would like my availability to be Monday- Friday and I can make exceptions on weekends for emergencies :) I have a fenced in yard but prefer to care for your pet in the comfort of your own home as I think that makes meeting and interacting with your pet much easier and comfortable!

About: I grew up with cats & dogs. We always had at least two in our house as kids and I've owned lots and lots of pets with human names. Since I’m a teacher I am available all summer long. I am an early riser and can accommodate all times you may need for your pets My pets get walked four times a day and seem to be my mode of exercise. I can accommodate early and late hours in particular.
