“Cooper had a fantastic time with Lina and her two pups. She was very quick to respond and very open to time changes and schedule conflicts. She sent plenty of videos, played with him a ton, and made sure that I knew he was good hands! I will be using her services again!”



“Lynana was great with Lexi. I am leaving on vacation in a week and have been stressing because I’ve never left lexi with someone she didn’t know plus she has anxiety. Lynana kept me updated and sent me photos to let me know lexi was doing fine. After this stay I feel confident in leaving her with Lynana when I’m gone on vacation.”

“Kathryn and her family are amazing dog sitters and took care of our three dogs kindly and patiently. We are super grateful to have found this family in Evansville to help us during our vacation time.”


“Oh my gosh! Rudy had the best time! Like a vacation for him, with so much love and attention! Went joy riding in a golf cart, shopping at Rural King, walks, and lots of cuddles!! Thank you Dana and JR!!!”


About: I've had a dog since I was 2 years old and that's a long time! I am a retired RN who is wanting a little more relaxing job. My husband is a retired Air Force veteran who ran the Military dog school. Although I will add all of my pets were pretty spoiled but very loved. I have a 13 year old Chihuahua named KT. I boarded a friend's small dog for a month and KT and my 15 year old cat Frank did fine with her. I'm am so looking forward to loving your pet ! I do travel several times a year . I do some home health visits but not obligated so I can always work around your pets needs. I live in a fairly large condo with a fenced in patio off of a sunroof. I normally leash my dog in front yard for quick potties and walk her 1 or 2 times a day. I have a medium size wired crate that can fit a small dog bed food and water for your pets safety if needed. I know accidents happen once in awhile especially in New surroundings but would prefer dog be housebroken.

About: I am experienced in energetic puppies and also senior dogs needing frequent medication and some extra love. The only thing I have not done is teach a dog to eat my homework. Pet care plays an important role in my life, even while I'm at university. Since moving to Evansville for school, being away from my family dog has been one of the harder parts of the transition. Even with classes, taking care of other people's pets easily fits into my schedule. I prioritize safety, comfort, and cleanliness when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s. I follow owners’ instructions closely, ensure the space is secure and keep everything clean. I build trust with the pets by respecting their routines and giving them gentle attention. I also keep owners updated so they feel confident their pets are in good hands.

“Emily is absolutely terrific! This was our first time leaving our little guy, Waylon, to go out of town. She took him for walks and some water time at the lake. She has a Golden Retriever that was an awesome companion for Waylon to play with. She sent us plenty of pictures and updates to let us know he was doing great. Even came home to a freshly washed and blown dry pup! We would highly recommend Emily!”


About: I have experience caring for small to large dogs over the past 40 yrs. I am currently fostering a Momma dog and her 5 puppies. My four-legged family members have consisted of 5 Alaskan Malamutes, 1 American Eskimo, 1 Pitbull Lab, 1 Golden Retriever, 1 Maltese, 1 Whoodle, and 2 Flame point Siamese. For other families, I have cared for Dobermans, Dalmatian, Labs, Pitbull Lab, Pomeranian, Golden Retriever, German Shepherd, Rottweiler, Great Pyrenees, Mixed Breeds, Cats, and more. I started caring for other's pets when I was a teenager. I am available to care for your pets while you are away during the day, evening, or an extended period. I am happy to walk, feed, play, and take them to the groomer, veterinarian, etc. In addition to caring for pets, I also have experience with housesitting. I am happy to provide references. I work part-time, and I am available on weekdays and weekends. I look forward to caring for your furry family members. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. I have a fenced-in area for my two furry family members. I will care for your furry family members as if they were my own.

About: I’ve had several animals in my lifetime. I had my late dog Lucy (terrier mix) for 17 years until her passing in 2021. I helped rescue a husky in 2013 and have recently adopted a golden retriever puppy that just finished puppy training classes! I love caring for animals and helping those on busy days who need help caring for their furry friends! I’m currently working part time and have the flexibility to come and care for animals through the week and weekends as needed! I can assist with just letting animals out for potty breaks or walks - whatever the client needs! I have a fenced in yard but also live in the country and am able to take my pup on walks a few times a week. My dog and cat are both regularly brushed and played with each day and receive adequate vet care. I also help a family with their house cleaning and lab each week and let the pup outside while they’re away.

“Wonderful host for our dog. Took great care of her, kept us updated, was very knowledgeable about working with dogs and making them feel safe in a new environment”


Lily M.
“I can’t say enough great things about Lily Meyer! She took care of my bulldog, Brisket, over the weekend while I was away on a short trip, and honestly, I don’t think Brisket wanted her to leave! From the moment she met him, Lily was warm, attentive, and totally in tune with his personality. Brisket is usually a little stubborn (as bulldogs tend to be), but he took to Lily right away—tail wiggles, snorts, the whole nine yards. What really impressed me was how much care she put into not just meeting his needs, but going above and beyond. She sent me regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. And the best part? She actually taught Brisket a couple new tricks while I was gone! He now knows how to give a high-five and spin in a slow little circle—something I’d tried for months with no luck. Lily clearly has a gift with animals and a ton of patience. When I got back, Brisket was happy, healthy, and clearly had a great time. I highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, and skilled dog sitter. Brisket and I will definitely be booking with her again!”
