“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’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.
“Beth was great with my cat Winry. Normally Winry hides when someone else is checking on her, but Beth managed to get her to come in just 2 days. She communicated well and did an excellent job taking care of things”
“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!”
About: Hello! My name is Logan. I grew up with cats and dogs in my house, and cared for friends/neighbors pets since I was a teenager. I have my own two mixed babies at home. I have experience managing multiple pets and administering basic medication. I have worked at a doggy daycare, and volunteered with dogs. This is my full time job right now, so your pets will get plenty of time with me. I know how important it is to have reliable pet care while you are away, so let me be that person for you! I take excellent care of my two dogs. Reya is 8 years old, and Ziggy is 3 years old. I enjoy quality play time, cuddles, and walks! I will provide your pets with the same love and care that I provide my own. I pay close attention to detail. I am a teacher, so I am very patient. I will leave your home better than when I arrived. I know how nice it is to come home to a clean and happy house!
About: I am a veterinary student. I'm comfortable caring for animals at every stage of life—including neonates (newborns). I understand the special attention, feeding schedules, warmth, and monitoring that newborn puppies and kittens need to thrive. In addition to neonatal care, I’m also experienced with senior pets, including administering medications and mobility support. Whether it's a playful puppy, a gentle senior, or a fragile newborn, I tailor my care to each animal's needs with patience, knowledge, and lots of love. You can trust that your pet is in caring, capable I'm very flexible and have plenty of time. As of now when I am a student, I will be free to take nights throughout the week I have three indoor cats they are not allowed to go outside. Because it is too dangerous in my area. I have tracker callers on them and harnesses and leads, if thay want to go on walks and explore
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
About: I'm a dog lover through and through! I have two of my own that I treat like my children. I have dog sat for neighbors, friends, and family in the past and look forward to caring for yours! I am currently working full time, so I am available in evenings and on the weekends. Let me know when I can be of service! I have had pets all my life and provide them with the utmost care and love. I am familiar with body language and signs that our pets communicate with us with, and will do everything to ensure your pet is always safe and comfortable.
