About: All my life I’ve grown up with a variety of different pets, from cats named “Refrigerator”, an Iguana named “Dude-Man”, and your average Joe of a dog. During these years, I’ve learned that each dog, cat, and iguana has specific needs unlike any other of its kind - whether that’s extra love, time to be an introvert, or health care. I have skills to do basic trainings with dogs, as well as a strong skill in consistency to make sure your pet’s training you’ve worked so hard on continues to be worked for under my care. I’m a college student located at Indiana State University. I’m free nearly every evening and have a very flexible schedule to leave campus and ensure your pet can get the attention it deserves. I enjoy a written list of what your specific pet needs- just to make sure I hit every mark. I grew up with my grandmother, so I know how to respect a home!
“My cat Fig loved her time with Anj, and I loved knowing she was getting lots of playtime, pets, and her food and water taken care of. Anj sent pictures each time she visited Fig which gave me peace of mind seeing how happy she was, even while I was away for a week.”
“Madie was incredibly nice and attentive. She was also very thorough with care instructions and making sure our cat would be comfortable while we were away. I'd 10/10 recommend her to anyone, and I'll definitely rebook her in the future.”
About: I’ve always had an extremely overbearing love for dogs 😍 I’ve been a dog mom for 6 years and would love to be a help ! I’m usually available on Thursdays and Fridays but if you ask for another availability any other day after 4:30 we could work that out as well! As a dog lover I’d take care of your babies just as much as I take care of mine ❤️ heavy on the love and affection for the fur babes!
“Sherri was so wonderful with my puppy and trustworthy! She loved him just like her own. She never failed to make sure he had plenty of exercise and everything he needed with each visit. She did a great just keeping me updated throughout as well. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her for future needs. :)”
About: I’ve always had some species of animal since I was a child. I’ve cared for them, bathed, walked, fed, taken vet trips, went on road trips with them. You name it, I’ve probably done it! My favorite people are animals! My fur babies are just that: my babies. They look to me for love and care and guidance. I try my best to ensure they live their best lives with as much love and happiness as possible. I have a fenced in yard but I would rather do drop ins as I have physical disabilities that would hinder playing with my fur babies as well as yours. I only want what’s best for your furry children!
About: I own several animals which include cats, dogs, and a leopard gecko. I love animals, and I am good with feeding on time, bathroom breaks on time, and I love to spend quality time with animals! I am good with puppy and kitten care as well. I am a house cleaner as well, so it tends to mix in with the pet care. I am consistently taking care of myself, my house, and my animals. I walk my dog every day, I feed all of my animals at the same time every day, I keep regular vet appointments, and all of my animals are up to date on their vaccines and spay/neutering.
“Amy was great! She worked well with 2 senior dogs, fish, and pill bugs! She was dependable, and communicated well about any questions she had. I will definitely use her again, and recommend her without hesitation,”

Merida D.
“You couldn’t get a better applicant to Rover.com than Merida. The way she cares for her own happy, playful dogs is just part of the reason we trusted her to come into our house and care for the furry members of our family when we were away. I have known Merida for many years She is a loving person, as well as trustworthy, dedicated, and honest. I wouldn’t trust my dogs with anyone else.”
