About: I treat dogs like family. Have had dogs for over 30 years. My labs and daughters love hosting other friendly dogs. We look forward to meeting you and yours! I work from home and am very active. Live on a loop that is .5 miles long and have 3 acres of yard. Ur dog will enjoy it here. I have 3 acres of yard and alternate between freedom in the house, walks, long runners outside and kennels for alone time. I make my own treats and will not charge u extra for basic southern hospitality

About: Hi! I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid and somehow became the go-to “can you check on my pet?” person for all my friends. I also have a cat, so I’m fluent in both tail wags and judgmental stares. I’m a local teacher, which means I’m patient, responsible, and fully background checked (trusted with a room full of kids—so your fur babies are in good hands). I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they’re happy, safe, and maybe a little spoiled. You can trust me with your fur children—I promise to return them just as adorable as you left them :) As a full-time teacher, my weekday availability begins after 3:30 PM, once the school day has ended. This makes me a great fit for afternoon and evening drop-ins, walks, or overnight pet sitting during the week. I’m reliable, consistent, and used to managing a structured schedule, so you can count on me to be punctual and attentive to your pet’s needs. On weekends and during school breaks, my availability is much more flexible. I’m typically free throughout the day, which allows me to accommodate a wider range of services, including extended stays, multiple daily visits, or last-minute bookings. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and pet sitting is a perfect complement to my teaching schedule. Whether you need help during the workweek evenings or more comprehensive care on weekends and holidays, I’m happy to provide a safe, caring, and dependable experience for your pets. I’m attentive, caring, and fully present during every walk, drop-in, and pet sitting visit. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s keeping up with routines, providing exercise, or offering extra affection and reassurance, I treat every pet as if they were my own.

“Leah was an excellent sitter! She took great care of our senior dog, Reggie. I appreciate that she sent lots of updates. I would be happy to have her watch Reggie again!”

“We are new to the area so did not know anyone to ask for dog care, so I found Elliot totally organically via Rover and am glad I did. Elliot was awesome. We had him house/dog sit for us for close to a week and he was great. Very responsive and understanding when the dates of our trip got moved around. Also he was able to swing by and let the dogs out again when our flights got delayed. The dogs were happy and healthy when we got home and seem like they loved him. We will be asking (hoping) Elliot can dog sit for us again in the future.”

About: Hi there! I’m an avid animal lover with a gentle, patient approach to pet care. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and my rescue beagle, Mylo: a lovable goofball who keeps me humble and well‑trained. I always look after every pet with the same attentiveness, patience, and high-quality care I give my own little crew. 🐾 󠁺 Before pursuing social work, I actually planned to become a veterinary technician, and that early passion for animals has stayed with me. I’ve volunteered at the Wabash animal shelter, spent years riding horses, and gained hands‑on experience with all kinds of personalities and needs. Mylo, who struggles with anxiety, has taught me a lot about de‑escalating reactivity and building trust through positive reinforcement. He also takes daily medication, so I’m very comfortable administering meds and following specific care routines. Mylo likes to think of it as his “evening treat with extra steps.” 󠁺 Over the past several years, I’ve pet‑sat for friends, family, and their extended circles. This has allowed me to care for pets of all ages and ranging needs. No matter the temperament, I adapt to each animal’s personality, mood, and boundaries. Striving to create a calm, reassuring environment where your pet feels understood is central to my approach as a caregiver. 󠁺 Please reach out if you have any questions! Your pet's comfort is my priority ❤️ My schedule is currently very open as I wrap up my internship, and I’m available for daily check‑ins, walks, and overnight stays! Please feel free to reach out with any questions, I’m always happy to connect. ❤️🐕‍🦺🎾 I love caring for pets where they feel safest, their home 🏡🐾. While I’m there, I carefully follow your pet’s routine and keep their space clean and comfortable, so you return to a happy, relaxed fur baby and a home that feels just as you left it (or better).

About: Hello! My name is Christina. If you are looking for a reliable and responsible adult person to tend to your home and animals while you are away look no further. I have been in Bloomington for about 16 years and when I moved to Indiana the only person I knew was my dog. Therefore I know what it is like to have to rely upon strangers to take care of my dog or watch my place while I am away. Let me be the person you can count on to take care of your home. I am available to: Take up your mail and newspapers Feed and walk pets Take trash and recycling to the road for pickup Water plants Notify you if there is an issue with your home For your peace of mind I do not take jobs that I cannot do. This minimizes frustration and increases reliability. I hope to see you soon ? I work full time but I do have weekends off and I’m usually off of work around 3pm. Afternoons and evenings work best for me. On the weekends I tend to be an early riser so I can drop in first thing in the morning. I have been a pet owner for the last 16 years. I understand if you have certain routines and preferences for your pet. I have no issues following the instructions left.

“Andria was wonderful. First, she took a week off of her day job in order so spend full time 24/7 with my two dogs; one of which is a puppy and a handful. She took great care of them and provided us with a few updates while we were out of town. When we came back, we found that she had also mopped the floors and our home was much nicer than when we left. She is very sweet and obviously loves what she does.”

About: I am currently a proud parent to two cat, so I’m very well versed in their play styles and respecting their boundaries. However I spent my childhood with a loving dog who recently passed away. Navigating his senior years taught me that care isn’t just about walks or treats but about patience, sometimes administering medication, and recognizing subtle cues of a senior pet that may need a little extra comfort. Whether your pet is a high energy pet or senior pet who needs a gentle hand, I provide intuitive, dedicated, and delicate care that I’d want for my own. I’m currently a college student, but have lots of time to care for your pets! I’m available on Mondays and Wednesdays from 12:30 PM-4:00 PM or 5:30 PM-10:00 PM. Thursday- Sunday I’m available anytime after 7:00 PM. Whatever your pets need, I have it covered and their safety is always my number one priority. From double checking that every gate is latched and every lease is secured/correctly on to closely monitoring your pets for any sign of discomfort, ill treat your home and your pets with the highest level of care. Whether it’s following a strict medication schedule or navigating a high energy walk, I’m prepared for any situation!

“Rebekah did an incredible job both house sitting and dog sitting our dog Arthur! We were so nervous to leave our fur baby and she made us feel so comfortable with her sweet updates! We highly recommend her services!”

About: I have a dog and two cats of my own and I have a deep love for all of them. I can’t wait to meet some of your animals or pets in the future. I do have school from 8 to 3:10 and involved in extracurricular activities but on the weekends and sometimes throughout the week, I am free. My dog is trained to stay in our yard, but in public, I always walk him on a leash and I would be sure to keep your pets and animals on a leash, unless stated otherwise in your directions.

About: I have taken care of pets ever since I was young. Looking forward to taking care of your fur babies as if they were mine I recently lost my pets and the apartment I live in doesn't allow pets so I look forward to loving your fur babies as if they were my own I'm pretty flexible at dealing with animals I used to have a Australian shepherd and a Shih Tzu Chihuahua mix and two cats so I'm used to taking care of a lot of babies

About: I am pawsitively the best. I have been around pets and taking care of pets my whole life my family adores pets, so we’ve always had them. I used to be the neighborhood sitter for children and pets, growing up during my teenage years and in my college years. In my opinion, nothings more wonderful than caring for our furry friends and making sure they are happy and comfortable and have the best life they can have. I am also skilled at working with elderly pets and giving medication’s including insulin shots and I’ve had to administer an IV regularly on one of my cats in the past who had diabetes and her pancreas was going out, with that said, I am very comfortable administering any medication’s that your pet may need. I am an entrepreneur, and I’m currently working on putting together my business adventures. Sometimes I Uber and DoorDash or Instacart, which creates an open schedule. I can work around my pet care schedule with my current obligations. When I care for pets in my home, I am able to take them to the pet park that is provided by my apartment complex. There’s also a lot of wonderful places nearby to go on walks. If I am taking care of a cat, I would play with the cat and keep him/her very comfortable. If I am taking care of a cat or dog in your home and you have a fenced in backyard, I will make sure your pet has time to run around and play and I will play as well with you furry friend or take your dog for a walk around the neighborhood.

“Heidi is an excellent pet sitter! She was attentive with my pets needs, remained very proactive with her communication, sent regular photos and updates and gave my blue Heeler plenty of exercise! Highly recommended!”
