Dog Walking in Indianapolis

“Deontae is great with my giant schnauzer Sir Onyx! Sir looks forward to the walks that they go on. I like the fact that Sir Onyx is always excited to see Deontae.”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of animals, including large dogs, cats with different personalities and needs, and even rabbits. This has helped me become adaptable, patient, and attentive to the unique care each animal requires. Whether it’s managing the energy of larger dogs, understanding the subtle behaviors of cats, or providing gentle care for smaller animals, I always prioritize safety, comfort, and consistency. I believe every pet is an individual, and it’s important to take the time to observe and meet their specific needs. I approach all animals with the same level of care, attention, and respect that I give my own. I am currently taking a month off from work to allow myself some much needed self care time before I transition into pursing a Vet Tech degree. When I inevitably get back into a standard part time job, still allowing myself the time to focus on bettering myself- I will always ensure I have enough time to care and love for animals in my care as if they were my own. As of now, I will be available round the clock for care- as early as 6am and as late as 10pm. For all animals- I will ensure that I follow all instructions left- because we all care for our fur babies in our own ways. But what is non negotiable is ensuring they are safe and content at all times.

“I appreciated the pictures and the details of the walk. My dog looked very happy and instructions were followed to a T! Great and timely communication too!”

About: Hey there! I’m a dedicated pet caregiver with 5+ years of professional experience offering pet sitting, dog walking, and drop in visits. I’ve cared for pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m calm, patient, and loving pets usually warm up to me right away! I’m reliable, attentive to routines, and always follow instructions carefully to keep your pets safe and happy. I have a 17 year old cat of my own named Merv that I absolutely love. He’s a sweetheart and gets along well with others. I’ve had many dogs like 2 English bulldog’s, and a Black Lab. They all lived a happy life and passed of old age. I’m hoping to welcome another cat or dog soon. I take pride in providing compassionate, high quality care every visit. Your pets will be in great hands! 🐾💛 I do pet care full time, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available for walks, drop ins, and sitting throughout the week, with boarding available most days as well. I only accept one pet family at a time for boarding, so your pet will always have my full attention and care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. It’s just me, my boyfriend, and my cat Merv at home, and I create a calm, loving environment. I’ve had two English Bulldogs and a Black Lab who lived long, happy lives, so I understand different needs and temperaments. I do not overbook and only care for one pet family at a time, ensuring a safe, low stress, and personalized experience. 🐾💛

About: i have taken care of both cats and dogs throughout the past few years, in and out of my own place. i am experienced in walking, feeding, and playing with them while their owners are away. my favorite part of making sure the owner feels secure and confident that their babies are in good hands is catering to specific needs. getting to know your animal is important to me! i work in an office mon-fri, but i am usually home in the evenings & all day on weekends. i’m also available for short or long-duration overnight stays. my partner, Daniel (a Rover sitter!), usually tags along in my sits as well. we live in an apartment, so for the comfort of your dog (or cat, if they’re a fan of the outdoors), i would be thrilled to make use of the environment that they are already familiar with. if you have a home with a yard, i’m sure getting some exercise in for the day would be no problem.

“Josephine was great!! Very communicative and CeCe loved having her come by to walk her throughout the week when I was traveling! I would definitely recommend her as a dog walker/sitter as she was very attentive to CeCe and what she needed!”

“Maddie has stepped up so many times when my other sitters fell through during my long shifts at the hospital. I always come home to a happy dog ❤️ I’m so thankful I found her!”

About: Hi everyone! My name is Maya and I am cat mom to two lovely gals who made me realize you can be a dog and cat person after all. I have experience working with pups at all life stages including senior pups needing medication and/or specific diets. I am currently a graduate student, which means that right now my summers are quite flexible for most days of the week. I love taking local walks, so having a companion (or two) is perfect for me. I am a lover of lists and details! I understand how much our pets mean to us (I am a rover user myself so I am very familiar with this process of finding the right person). I will follow the instructions you leave exactly as you would want it and treat your space with respect.

About: Walk. Wag. Repeat. 🐾 Hi, I’m Sebastian! Animals have always been the center of my world, and my business, Silly Moose & Co, is named in honor of my late, beloved dog, Layla. Her nickname was "Silly Moose," and she taught me everything about patience, unconditional love, and the joy of a wagging tail. I founded this business to carry on her legacy by treating every pet I meet with that same "Moose-sized" love. 📬 The "Pet's Best Friend" Professional By day, I’m a Letter Carrier, which truly makes me a pet's best friend! I’m out in the community every day, rain or shine, and I’ve mastered the art of making friends with every pup on the block. My career means I am exceptionally reliable, punctual, and used to being active in all types of weather. 🐾 Rescue-Tested Experience When I’m not on my route, I’m dedicated to rescue work. I am a current volunteer at Sketchy Mutts and Underdogs, and I previously spent time with the ASPCA as a shelter walker and dog photographer. These roles have given me invaluable experience with all personality types—from the shyest "underdogs" needing a patient hand to high-energy pups ready for an adventure. 🐈‍⬛ Tailored Care for Cats While the dogs are out walking, the feline family members aren't forgotten! I offer tailored services specifically for cats. As a "servant" to two cats who rule my own home, I know that every cat is unique—whether they want high-energy laser chasing, gentle brushing, or just some quiet company. I’m happy to handle feedings, litter box maintenance, and plenty of "slow blinks." 🏠 My "Moose" Crew at Home My home is shared with Buttercup, my sweet 5-year-old blue nose Staffordshire Terrier, and my two feline house-rulers. Because I live with a Staffy, I am especially comfortable and experienced with "bully breeds" and larger, powerful dogs. 🤝 The Silly Moose Promise Whether it’s boarding, walking, or house sitting, I know your pets are your family. My background in hospitality and community work means I bring a high level of reliability, attention to detail, and clear communication to every booking. Ready to start the cycle? Let’s Walk. Wag. Repeat. I am a Letter Carrier for the United States Post Office, I love animals and will always make time to meet new friends. I am in a transition phase in my career post injury and am trying to be a full time pet friend. At Silly Moose & Co, my care philosophy is built on the cycle of Walk. Wag. Repeat. I believe that a happy pet is one that feels safe, stimulated, and understood. Here is how I ensure your furry family member gets the best experience: 1. Building Trust Through Patience Every pet has a unique "vibe." Drawing from my experience with Sketchy Mutts and Underdogs, I never force a connection. I use "slow blinks" with cats and respectful body language with dogs to let them come to me. Whether they are shy rescues or high-energy "Silly Mooses," I meet them where they are. 2. Structured Walks & Sensory Play As a Letter Carrier, I know the streets like the back of my hand. I don’t just "walk" dogs; I provide structured outings. This includes sniffing breaks for mental stimulation (sensory play) and consistent pacing to ensure they get the physical exercise they need. 3. Meticulous Routine & Safety Pets thrive on consistency. I stick strictly to your feeding, medication, and bathroom schedules. My background in hospitality means I have a sharp eye for detail—I check water bowls, ensure gates are latched, and keep litter boxes "deep-clean" fresh for my feline clients. 4. Communication is Key I know how much you miss them! You’ll receive regular updates and photos so you can see the "Wag" in action. I treat your home with the same respect I give my own, ensuring everything is secure and tidy. 5. Specialized Skills From handling "bully breeds" like my Staffy, Buttercup, to administering medications or even bathing a reluctant cat, I have the hands-on experience to handle the unexpected with a calm, steady hand.

“Lauren is the best and goes above and beyond!! She was very patient with my pup who was giving her a hard time the first day. But she is a dog whisperer and now they are best friends! Lauren is very reliable and flexible. Marley takes great naps after their walks together. I would definitely recommend her for your pet needs!”

“Thanks Megan!”

“Emily has walked my dog Reese 3 times now, and she has been great!! She communicates well, spend quality time with Reese and takes great photos, and I know Reese is in good hands with Emily. She has been available to walk Reese with minimal notice when I had a long day at work, and I really appreciated it!”

“Christy is a reliable and competent caretaker, and also a very compassionate, adaptable person. Not everything went according to plan with my dog Marcel because he was quite freaked out by my absence. Thankfully I had someone who rolled with the punches and did the best thing I could ask for: be a calm and consistent presence for my little friend. I'm very grateful for Christy's service and cannot recommend it highly enough.”

About: I have always had dogs in my household growing up. And my dream was always to own my own dog one day. We adopted our sweet Gibby in 2021. My 4-year old boxer is my world, so I know how scary it can be to leave your pets care in the hands of someone else. Rest assured, I will treat every dog like it is my own as I would want someone to do for mine as well! I work your typical 9-5 Monday-Thursday. I have Fridays off so I have a little extra time In my weekends to spend with your fur babies! I will care for every pet as if it’s my own! I am great at following instructions and can do any special things your pet needs to feel safe and loved

“Gigi was very communicative during the week she watched our pups. She took great care of our pups and was flexible when we had a medical emergency with our one dog. We truly appreciated her watching our babies while we were out of the country.”

I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! I am available full time between jobs, so I can be available as needed to care for your pet in and around your home.

I can bring leashes if needed. I will not feed or give treats unless specified!

“Five stars are not nearly enough! Stacey is fantastic! She does a great job and really provides you with peace of mind that everyone is well taken care of.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Natalie! My dog, Moose, is not always an easy dog to walk (or get to hold still), but Natalie listened to all my nervous explanations and is able to confidently walk/run Moose while I am working. It makes such a difference to be able to trust that my dog is in good hands and getting sufficient enrichment during the day.”

About: I have been a dog owner and lover for 10 years, providing care for dogs of all sizes and ages. Since I have moved out of my childhood home and away from my own dogs, I am looking to spend time with pups of all types from around the area. :) I am available full time on the weekends (including Friday. With my fenced in yard, I have secure and ample play room for your pup. I own a very curious and dog-friendly cat named Lilo who will thoroughly enjoy all of the company provided. I also have a pup, Charlie, who loves to meet new friends! I will be sure to treat your pets as if they are my own, and I am willing to provide any special treatment you might need to ensure your furry baby’s’ happiness and health. I am currently a contracted worker, so if my schedule shows I’m available, I’m available all day! I can provide whatever care necessary for your pet. I have a fenced in yard and a fenced in park down the street for my pup to run around. We go on three walks a day and I ensure he’s well exercised! My cat, Lilo, also is played with throughout the day and both of my furry babies received all of the love they desire. :)
