“Juel was wonderful! My dog, Grace, was smiling in every picture and was totally calm and happy when I came to pick her up. I’ll definitely be checking on Juel’s availability every time we take a trip and need boarding.”
“Nick is the best! Molly has never been left with a sitter, always boarded at kennels. This personal care was so reassuring. He sent pictures of Molly. She loved being there. Would give 10 stars if possible”
“Dexter had a great time as always at Jordan’s place - she was even kind enough to give him a bath after he got dirty one day! Jordan also gets the best pictures, and is always sharing updates, couldn’t recommend a sitter more!”
About: Hi, I am Marlene and I love just 5 Miles from Holiday World, Santa Claus, Indiana. l am self employed as a Senior Caregiver and a Dog Groomer. I have loved all animals my whole life and we have always had dogs in our home. I love all animals and even volunteered at the Louisville Zoo from the age of 13-15. Our animals are part of our family and priority in my life. It would be a privilege to care for your Pup Kids too, where they will receive lots of love, attention, and play time! Whatever your pet needs to be comfortable in my home, I will make sure they have the best experience possible. See me on Facebook under Pup Kids Groom N Board. I am self employed, so I can arrange my schedule to be available to care for your pup! I'm available for boarding hourly, daily and overnights. Short Notice = Less than 5 days will be an additional $20 to rearrange my work schedules. All pet’s safety is my first priority. I have 3 very friendly and social Mini Bernedoodles so vaccination records will be required before booking approval (Rabies, Bordetella, and Distemper). My home is pet friendly and I allow morning zoomies and play in the house as well as pets on our couches. I have a large fenced backyard with a covered deck, as well as a completely fenced 1 acre beyond that. My fenced backyard is dog-friendly, clean and free of anything that could harm your pet. Because each dog is different, please inform me of any specific personalities or needs that I need to be aware of to keep your pat safe and happy.
“Emily watched our boy for us while we spent the day at Holiday World. Winston loved spending the day with Copper and Scout in the back yard and even felt comfortable enough to sit on Emily’s lap - trust me, this says a lot because Winston doesn’t like anyone! Lol ? I will definitely be booking with Emily again and am so thankful I found her!”
“This was our second time boarding Ruby with Amber. She had another great stay and seems to really enjoy her time with Amber and her family. Amber is our go-to sitter now for boarding needs for our Ruby girl!!”
“They were sweet to my dog who felt right at home when he got there! They sent pictures and asked thoughtful questions about my dog’s routine. I’d recommend Katie and her family to my friends and family.”
About: I have 3+ years of professional pet care experience and currently work at an animal rescue! I have training in administering medication, bathing, nail trims, and teeth cleaning. I adore all pets and have personally owned dogs, fish, snakes, lizards, frogs, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, rabbits, and ducks! I have also taken care of cats, parrots/parakeets, and sheep. I am available 7 out of 7 days of the week! I get how chaotic life can be! That’s why my scheduling times are flexible to meet your and your pets needs. Safety is the top priority! My services and activities will be customized to the outdoor conditions (too hot or too cold = shorter walks outside and more indoor play time). As a pet parent, my house stays pet proof: no loose wires, batteries, sharp objects, etc. I have a 6ft privacy fence and use no chemicals in the yard. I am certified in animal first aid and CPR.
“Nathalie was amazing with my Bean 😁 She gave me multiple updates throughout the day with pictures. She even took my dog for walks at the dog park which was very sweet. Bean misses her already 😢 Thank you and your mom so much for going above and beyond for my baby. 1000% recommend!!”
“Gail was everything my boy needed and more! I have no doubt in my mind that he was well taken care of. She kept me up to date throughout our whole trip and even sent pictures. She couldn’t have been a more perfect fit for my boy. I had never used anything like this before but I would choose Gail over and over again. Thank you for loving my boy like he was one of your own.”
“We have an almost 14 year old sweet senior dog, and I get nervous leaving him, but Sarah was so wonderful! She asked thoughtful questions in our interview, and followed our routine perfectly. She gave him everything he needed and more! We would definitely recommend her!”
“Ruby had a great stay at Courtney’s house! I got updates and pictures throughout the week. Courtney’s kids helped take care of Ruby and enjoyed having a pup in the house. I’m grateful Courtney was able to keep Ruby for us!”
About: I love dogs and they deserve the best! I have had a dog for 7 years and he is well trained and gets along with other dogs. I work full time 9am-5pm. I can work evenings and weekends. I take my dog for walks often on the riverwalk or at parklands. I have an adjustable lunch in case I have to check on pets during the day. I have 1 dog that is dog friendly and house trained. I’m pretty flexible for what needs your pets may need in home. I do not have a fenced yard and will leash them to potty outside.
About: My husband and I have had dogs and cats our entire lives. We currently have a 5 year old Husky, 2 Cocker Spaniels, ages 2 & 3 and recently rescued a 2 year old English Setter. We love meeting new friends and treat them as our own. We also have 3 cats. We work full time but 3 days we work from home during the week. We are available on Saturday and Sundays and weekday evenings on case by case basis. We have a large fenced in back yard and very friendly dogs to keep your dogs company and can crate your dogs or cats if needed. Can abide by your regular home schedules with food, breaks and walks.
“Kyla was fantastic! Her home was clean and geared for dogs. The fenced in backyard was nice and spacious and had obstacles toys set up. Kyla was very communicative and sent lots of pictures with updates. Our Luna felt right at home and was treated like their own pack. 10/10 will book with her again.”

“Marlene is great with my dog. My fur baby loves visiting with Eyela (mom), Arie (dad), and Tuc (brother). They have free play inside and outside.

I love that she is located so close to Holiday World where my human kids go for fun and my fur baby has her own place to go for fun.”
