Dog Walking Hardscrabble

About: I have grown up with multiple dogs my whole life and have administered meds to cats & dogs. I’ve pet sit for multiple families and love what I do. If you need potty breaks, walking, feeding, play time and cuddle time I’ve got you covered! Weather it’s a short drop in visit or a weekend away I will do my best to meet your animals needs with love. I have a fenced yard if you prefer to drop off or I can come to your home within 15 miles. I have participated in several obedience and therapy dog trainings and can assist in keeping your dog practicing whatever training you have started. You can trust your animals are in good care. I work full time on a rotating schedule with dog sitting on the side. Your pets will always be well cared for in my care. I have a fenced yard and 4 fur babies to keep your dog entertained. Plenty of toys and free play. Can crate if needed. They sleep with me at night.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats and have volunteered at the animal shelter to walk, care for, play with both cats & dogs I am very flexible with my schedule and available most days, including holidays. I can do early mornings and mid-day and evenings. Late night depending on locations & individual needs. Not presently offered. Maybe once I have added a fenced in yard, I might consider boarding. I am not interested at this time to board at my home. I'm devoted to taking good care of your furbabies when I have a booking. Your animals are my #1 priority. I can do drop in visits or stay with them overnight depending on your needs. I have a fenced yard and supervise the furbabies while in my care. I have a friendly small dog who will play with yours. I also have 2 cats that are accustomed to being around dogs, but stay away for the most part.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and know how to love and care for each of your pets while you are away. While I do not have any professional dog experience, I’ve had dog in my family since the day I was born and had owned my own dog for about 10 years until she recently passed away. Dogs my family has had were a mutt, three Labradors, Golden Retriever, and a Belgian Malinois. The pet I recently had was a mix of a Labrador and German Short-haired Pointer. I had been to training classes recently for about 3 years as well. I have pet sit cats and lived with cats in the past so I would know how to care for a feline. I will make sure to be very professional, care, and love your pet as if they were my own. Looking for services inside or outside of my home. I currently work full time in Carmel Monday-Friday 8am to 4:30pm and typically have nights and weekends free. I am looking to become more active (I had a senior dog with no ability to walk) so physical activity is welcomed! I have a fenced in yard and walking trails throughout my community. No additional pets. I can easily crate your pet with a collapsible travel crate.

“Steph was wonderful. Definitely would hire her again!”

About: I know it can be nerve racking to find someone you can trust to take care if your pet like you would. That’s why I started pet sitting! I want to provide peace of mind to owners by providing the same routine for your pet and updating you daily. I have experience caring for all types of animals; dogs, cats, chickens and reptiles. All sizes, special diets, oral medications, whatever care your pet’s need! If you have a dog or cat that doesn’t “like” people, I’m your girl! I am a full time student at Ball State which makes my schedule pretty flexible throughout the week and weekend to be able to drop in on your pet. I will care for your home like I would care for mine. I’ll make sure windows and doors are locked before leaving. Ensuring your pet is secure and comfortable! When you return, you’ll never know that I was there. Everything will be as you left it or better!

About: Growing up with a veterinary technician mother, I have seen how crucial animal care is up close. I have also spent years working in animal foster care and of course, caring for my own babies. I grew up with multiple friends and family who had everything from dogs and cats, to lizards, to horses and am well prepped to take care of your furry friend too! I only work part-time several days a month as my job is currently moving into off-season. My schedule is therefore quite open right now until the season shifts but I will communicate and update as things change. I would love to fill my time with both pet care and the exercise of dog walking! When possible, I visit clients homes prior to their departure so we have a mutual understanding. This helps me see the owner and pet interactions in person, understand the home, and ask any upfront questions as well as answer any that may immediately come up. It is easy for me to find a relaxed activity to do that can keep me with the pets and at their attention at all times.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and currently have a dachshund, and a cat! I’ve cared for puppies, energetic dogs, and senior dogs who needed extra hands-on care. I’m patient, attentive, and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and needs. Your pet will be treated like family with me! I am a full-time college student at a community college. I have recently finished taking all my prerequisites and trying to make some extra money while waiting to apply to my college programs. I have two Australian Shepherds, a dachshund, and a cat at home. I make sure all of my pets have fresh food and water, plenty of exercise and playtime, and lots of love and attention. I’m also very attentive to their individual personalities and needs. I treat every pet like my own and take the time to learn their routine and personality. I want them to feel happy, comfortable, and loved while their family is away

About: I started my pet setting journey pet sitting farm animals, dogs, and a potbelly pig. Next I watched family and friends dogs of all sizes. I have experience at working at a dog daycare and boarding. At this job I fed, cleaned, and was a daycare leader (daycare groups include: 20 large dogs per person or 40 small dogs per person). I also volunteer for a dog rescue in which I also feed, cleaned kennels, did vet transport, and have helped with adoptions. I have 3 dogs of my own. Tia, Smokey, and Jimmy! After 3 years of being in corporate- I have decided to take a break. Excited to see what new doggy friends I can make! After 3 long years in sales and corporate, I’ve decided to step back into pet sitting. I’m extremely flexible—the only thing I don’t offer is overnights, so I can still keep some kind of normal. I have three dogs of my own, and one of them is dog reactive. I’ve also got a husky who hasn’t escaped. I never let them outside without me watching!

About: I have dog sat since I was 15. It was my first job. I love taking care of animals in general and I thought why not get paid to do what I love. I’m available whenever, my schedule is very flexible. I could work 7 days a week or when every someone needs me. It all depends on the clients needs. I walk, I feed, I play, and I love for dogs. I have had my own dog that i personally have taken care of since I was 12 years old. Since then i have taken care of multiple dogs all by myself.

I just graduated high school so I am free every day. I’m willing to do overnight days, weekly stays drop in visits. My schedule is always very flexible. We don’t have a fence so one dog goes outside on a leash and the other dog has recall so he doesn’t need a leash. In clients homes I always follow the checklist or rules that are sent to me. I don’t wanna risk anything bad happening. I feed on schedule, give meds when needed, provide multiple potty breaks, and always make time for playtime.
