“Adrianne and her family have been a safe haven for my dog, Shaggy! First of all, I appreciated Adrianne’s meet and greet where we got to know each other briefly, talked about the expectations. Adrianne went above and beyond to accommodate Shaggy. She made my day by sending his pictures from morning till night 2-3 times a day:) it felt like I stayed connected with my dog and ensured he was happy and cared. Because of an inconvenience I personally experienced, I had to extend Shaggy’s visit one more day. She was very kind and understanding about the situation. We were able to extend the stay one more day. So long story short, she was amazing! I hope I can meet people like Adrienne when I move to Minneapolis because she is a really caring and kind pet lover and very friendly and kind person!”


“Hilary was great. She sent pictures everyday, and I could tell my dog was having a great time in them. She made sure he got all the things he likes: walks, play, and cuddles. Very easy to work with too with good communication between me and Hilary. My dog was in good spirits when I picked him up like he was at home there.”



“Very comfortable stay at Steve's. Casey had a wound at the time, but he cared for it greatly. He administered meds and kept me at a complete peace of mind.”


“Katia was so awesome and took care of my husky Ethel for 5 days while I was out of town. She came home so happy and exhausted. 10/10 She accommodate us last minute which was super sweet of her.”


About: I’ve been a dog owner and foster parent my whole life. I’ve trained and owned all kinds of dogs from Jack Russels and Pomeranians to Great Danes and Golden Doodles. The relationships I build with dogs are enriching and rewarding. The innocence and desire to just be themselves is what I love about animals. I treat my new dog friends like family and I believe they prosper in a relationship that promotes their inner dog as well as setting boundaries that help the human/canine relationship prosper. I embrace the belief of calm assertive dominance and find it that dogs seem to find peace in me being in that role. I am a stay at home parent whose availability is an asset that I utilize for the sake of the animals I care for. I hope to one day befriend your best friend. I’m a stay at home father of 10 and 12 yr old boys. I raise 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 24 chickens. I have lots of flexibility to ensure the care needed for you pet. I love to spend time with animals in the environment they feel most comfortable. With my flexible schedule and the abundance of land on my property and in my locale, I know I can fit the needs of your furry friend.

“Sarah was a great fit for Duke. I had to leave town for a funeral so short notice and she was very accommodating. She kept me updated with how Duke was doing through my trip. I would recommend her for everyone to use.”


“He was so good at keeping in touch and sent pics thru the week. And Gracie looked content and happy when I came to pick her up! ❤️🥰 very affordable also!!”


“John took excellent care of Ginger for a few days over the Thanksgiving holiday. She does have a bit of separation anxiety but he made sure she got plenty of attention. Sent us pictures and reports throughout her visit.”


“Alexis was just wonderful! Great communication and updates, thoughtful little touches that shows how much she loves caring for fur babies. She did exceptionally great with our over-eager Pit mix!”


“Savannah took great care of Aero and Finn! They were very excited to see her again after a meet and greet and not excited to leave ?. They came home happy, healthy, and tired! A great vacation for them! Thanks again!”

About: With four years of professional kennel experience, I understand that every dog has unique needs and personalities. I go beyond basic pet care, providing attentive, personalized care that gives your dog the comfort and routine they’re used to as if it were you. From playtime and exercise to medication management, I bring a trained eye to every detail, ensuring your pup is safe, happy, and stress-free. I’m always excited to make a new furry friend and treat them like family! I am currently a student at Ball State University with a part time job at Menards. I only have classes a couple hours a day around noon. I am looking to fill up my mornings and evenings with a care that I deeply enjoy and am passionate about! For house sitting, I stay overnight and follow the pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. I provide companionship, keep the home clean, and send regular updates with photos to keep the owner informed and reassured. For drop-in visits, I stop by three times a day for about 20 minutes each visit. During each drop in I handle feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and basic care, while making sure to send detailed updates and pictures after every visit.

“Virginia met us at a local park so we could introduce our shepherd to her before her stay. We talked for almost an hour.... it was wonderful and Virginia is amazing with people as well as dogs. She sent us pictures of our Maggie while we were away to keep us updated on how she was doing. I definitely would use Virginia again in the future and recommend her to anyone needing a loving caretaker for their pet when they are away.”


About: I have fostered dogs my whole life, and rehabilitated many untrained fosters. I basic obedience train all my personal dogs and foster dogs. I have also volunteered at the local animal shelter for the past 3 years. My husband and I work opposite schedules so someone is home majority of the day. I start my day at 4am taking care of my own dogs and work 8-4. My husband’s home all day and leaves for work at 2:30 so your beloved family member will have around the clock care! I have a 6ft privacy fence. I also am very trained in crate and rotating dogs if need be. I am equipped in medication administration as I have two personal dogs on daily meds. I have been trained on how to properly introduce dogs and have fostered many dogs over the past few years. I also have the room and availability to keep your pup separate from other dogs in the home if need be.

Samantha & James R.
“I have known Samantha and her husband, James, for quite some time now. We volunteer together at our local animal shelter. I've seen her love on the broken dogs, take them on as fosters, and literally love them back to health. She gives each of the dogs in her care "training time" which makes for great enrichment. She is also skilled in what is called "crate and rotate" for situations when your pet may not necessarily get along with everyone else, they would get their own potty time outside in the yard. I would trust her with my pets, time and time again.”
