“This was our first time booking Zachary to come drop in on our cats while we were gone for a week, and we could not be more pleased with his services! Although our set up is very simple because we have automatic feeders and a water fountain, he went above and beyond by spending time and playing with our cats. He left detailed updates on how they were doing, and you could tell that he was very attuned to their personalities and quirks. We felt so at ease while we were away because we could tell the cats were getting alot of attention and care. We will definitely use Zachary in the future!!”
“Sierra was fantastic! Our spooky little cat was excited to see her and playing by the end. She went above and beyond in checking on her during a storm, and we came home to a happy, satisfied pet. :) We will absolutely call Sierra again!”
“Beth was amazing! We had a rejected 2 week old kitten and she was such an amazing help! She was very easy to get a hold of and sent lots of adorable pictures! She helped us when we were a bit clueless at some points and overall is not just a great sitter but a great person. I will always highly recommend Beth to anyone needing a pet sitter!”
About: i’ve had cats&dogs all of my life, my childhood cat was my best friend growing up. i don’t think i’ve gone a week without being around animals. i have 2 dogs & 2 cats of my own now and they’re literally my babies. there isn’t a fur baby out there that i wouldn’t care for as much as my own 🫶 i go to school 8am-5:30pm through the week, so my evenings are open and most of my weekends are free! i accept some services in the Kokomo & Logansport areas. 🙂 i do not stay overnight so if you are needing me to do so i will charge you +$25 and if your home is over 20 minutes away from me it will be another +$20. please message me and everything will be discussed before actually booking 😊 i will not be keeping pets at my home because one of my dogs is not friendly and neither are my 2 cats but i will treat my clients home with the utmost respect, follow all the rules you require me to and leave it the way i found it because i would hope for the same if the roles were reversed.
“Mary is fantastic--a true animal lover. She even got our shy cat, Chika, to allow petting. It was great to be on our vacation, knowing that someone trustworthy and kind was looking after our adored cats. We will be using her services on all of our vacations.”
About: I have 3 years of experience working at a professional grooming salon and doggy daycare, and I’ve been a lifelong pet owner. My passion for animals and hands-on experience allow me to provide quality, compassionate care for every pet I work with. I’m currently a stay at home mom! I have all days available as well as most hours needed. I have my own fur baby as well. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a dog run. I also provide at least 3 walks a day to ensure your pup is getting the exercise it needs!
“Marissa took great care of our cat Igor while we were away visiting family. He’s a shy kitty, but she got him to come out and play many times! She’s got great pet sense, and we would absolutely hire her again!”
“Karis was fantastic! Our cats quickly came to enjoy each visit and had lots of fun. Even our most timid cat was friends with Karis by the last visit. Communication was great and all of our cats' needs were taken care of. We will definitely rebook!”

About: I have been pet-sitting for 5 years. I have a dog of my own as well and know how important it is to be able to trust who you are leaving your companion with.

I am able to accomodate the schedule and routine you need for your pet's needs and am able to be flexible to ensure all your pet's needs are met!

About: Hi!! My name is Marissa Gordon, I’m 27, married and own a bi-level home with lots of space. I have a backyard with a large deck overlooking a woodsy ravine that dogs love hanging out on to watch wildlife and relax with us! Our house is setup to keep your pets separated from ours if necessary- with 2 living rooms upstairs and downstairs. We love watching movies with them and taking them on nature walks in our neighborhood! I am a business owner so I am able to work my schedule around caring for your pets. I can tend to them and may need to leave the house for appointments no longer than 3 hours if needed but my husband also is home in the case I can’t be there 24/7. We keep your pets areas clean and cozy. Temperature controlled, access to water and we take them out to the yard when they need to potty and for walks if possible.

“Liz was an absolute pleasure!! Our fur babies had no problems with her at all and even got our dog to eat her food(she never eats while we are away). Thank you so much for an amazing experience Liz💜”
About: I grew up on a cattle farm with two dogs (inside) and 10 cats (6 inside/outside and 4 outside). I am very experienced with the care that animals need and I will give them the care and attention that they need. I have experience giving medication to my own animals so I can give medication to a pet if needed. I am used to playing with my own dogs outside and at the end of the day I cuddle with them on the couch. I am a part time student at Penn Foster online with their vet tech program and a full time Animal Care Technician at Purdue University. I excel at belly rubs and head pats. I will treat your animals like my own and my pets are my children. I work full time at Purdue University as an Animal Care Technician so I care for all animals on the daily. I also have my pets at home as well. I always make sure that the animal is comfortable, fed, watered, and feels safe in my presence. I love to give attention and comfort to all animals.
About: I have had animals for all my life. Taking care of them is something I love to do. Having 2 cats and 3 dogs of my own I would love to help with your fur baby too. I am currently a stay at home mom. So I would be able to take care of your pet anytime. Unfortunately with having animals of my own it would have to be ether at your place or for walks. When I visit your home I will spend time playing and feeding your animal. If the need to be brushed or walked I would gladly do that too.
About: I grew up on a farm so I've always been around animals. At a very young age I started helping care for the animals which lead to me house sitting as well as walking them. I work 4 days a week and do this part time. I love spending time with my animals and love working taking care of them. We have a fenced in yard we have lots of toys for them to be entertained and well taken care of. And plenty treats for them to enjoy.
About: I have been a dog mom my whole life and many of my friends think I’m crazy for how much I love my pup. I think it’s just enough! I have a border collie/lab mix who is high energy. I have taught him many tricks and how to be the best boy! I have also pet sat for my friends for many years- dogs and cats. I love every animal like it’s my own and none of them are strangers to me. I throw my dog birthday parties, we’ve had professional pictures together, and you name it. I don’t have children, so my dog is my whole life. I will talk to your pet in an obnoxious baby voice and tell them I love them the second I meet them! :) I am a real estate agent- so time is definitely flexible! I will need a little bit of a heads up before to make sure I don’t have an appointment, but going into strangers houses is literally what I do for a job. AND the best part of being a real estate agent is when their pets are home for showings! I live in Frankfort, but work from Lafayette. My profile says Frankfort- but Lafayette is where I spend most of my time! I currently don’t have a fenced in yard for my dog- so we go on 2 walks a day and sometimes to the dog park. I am available for walks, dog park visits, just hanging out with your pet so they aren’t lonely, and anything else you need! I am also open to feeding/watering/crating

“Keigan is an amazing and loving pet caregiver. She has four pets who she goes above and beyond for. They always get to celebrate their birthdays, wear a Halloween costume, and have a stocking on Christmas. She makes them special food with vitamin's they need and makes them individually for each pet. They all go to the vet regularly and are in good health and happy mindset. She is also great with other people’s animals. I have a cat and she helped me buy all of the products and taught me everything I needed to know to be a good pet owner. I would trust my pet with her if something happened to me and I was unable to.”
