About: Since I was born, I have been around animals, and dreamed to work with them and take care of them. I went to school ar SJVC to become a Veterinary Technician, so I have developed skills on how to administer medications. I have watched over my friends pets, whether dogs, cats, rabbits, etc. I am comfortable around all sorts of animals, be them furry, feathery, or scaly. I am currently working part-time at Ross Dress for Less and volunteer at M.A.R.E when free and, so I have a flexible schedule to pet-sit or even walk your furry family members. I provide a safe, and calm environment for the care of all animals, will provide daily walks as needed. If needed, can help with crate training new puppies.

Our pup, Tilly, was happy with Jess and so are we. He took her for her walks and the neighbors who ran into him and Tilly said that he was great. Upon our return, the house was neat and clean. Can't get much better. Will definitely use Jess again.

Sidney was absolutely amazing!! It was our first time using Rover and she put us at ease the moment we met for a little meet-and-greet with our crew. She sent videos and pictures everyday which we absolutely loved. We had two dogs and a cat, all with their own special quirks, and Sidney was so great with all three. Our vacation was stress-free knowing she was there and she left the house in perfect order for when we returned. We can’t recommend her enough (in fact, we bragged about her to the family our entire trip 😂) and will absolutely be booking her again.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals from dogs to rabbits. I have been a huge animal lover since I was a kid. I had a friend once joke and say that my pets had better health insurance than her because of how much I loved and cared for my pets. Clients, friends and family always ask me first if I can take care of their pets when they are gone. I am always reliable and love their pets as my own. I will let your dogs out for potty breaks in between my day at work. They will get unconditional love and attention. My best friend is my pug. My fur babies are my children and will treat your pet the same way. I’m self employed running my own business that has busy days and slow days. If I am responsible for the care of someone’s animals I will make sure to schedule around their care. Potty breaks, food and attention will be considered first. I am a very easy going and responsible person. I have a fenced yard and a doggy door. My pug is the biggest social butterfly and welcomes anyone who comes in our home including cats. She was raised with cats so she loves them like they are her people. Haha She loves to have new doggy friends too. I spoil her like crazy so your pet will be given the same attention and care. I take their safety very seriously. If you have rules for your pet in your home I will abide by those rules.

About: I have had a dog of my own for 6 years now. Some more in past years. I have taken care of my friends and families pets for years now. Pets can be scared and intimidating but I know that with my love and patience with pets they do become comfortable with me. I work with kids, but my schedule is really flexible and I have breaks in between each client which gives me the opportunity to check up on pets. I have a fenced yard with two dogs. One of them is Charlie, a poodle/shih tzu, who is super sweet and the other dog is my sisters, who is a Rottweiler named Blue. Blue and Charlie are both sweet dogs. Blue is very energetic and playful and has never been aggressive as well as Charlie. Charlie mainly stays in my room in his kennel and Blue stays separated from the backyard and stays in the side area or in his kennel in the garage. All pets have always been separated but do give them opportunities to play with each other often and supervised.

Nena watches my 5 year old Shiba Inu while I am at work or go out of town. I am very protective of who enters my home or watches my pet and I have no issues with her being in my home and around my dog without me being there. Nena is great, reliable and friendly. Communicates about everything and gives you a report on how your dog did for the day or visit. She follows specific instructions if needed and asks questions before doing anything not listed. Highly recommend!

During our 21 year old, senior cat’s last days, Vanessa ensured our cat was comforted and cared for. Our loving senior was fed, loved, and watched after with the utmost attention and care. We know it is harder for people to want to care for senior animals as they have become fragile, sedentary, and overall have lost their young cuteness. Vanessa instead let our sweet angel take her time, playing with and petting her gently. She also made sure our tiny senior was fed around the clock, making sure to prepare her special diet thoroughly (she had oral surgery twice with teeth removed both time). I would recommend Vanessa for all animal needs. She is intuitive, attentive, and meets all demands you might have for your fur baby.

About: I’ve own dogs my whole life. I currently have 1 male dog, A 3 yr old mix lab/border collie who is neutered. I am experienced with giving medication, liquid and in pill form. all fur babies will be fed, bathe, walked and cuddled. I’m in the military, I work from 6am to 12pm during the week typically have an hour and a half break in between, which I come home and care for the dogs, and on the weekends I am off . I will be able to take the dogs for a walk every afternoon if not every other afternoon, feed them as scheduled and have water available to them. Baths will be once a week unless there is a preference.I have a huge yard for the fur babes to play and run around. I have a fenced yard with plenty of space for fur babies to run and play, my dog has low energy but when theres new comes hood energy varies and love to play and run. There is a park behind my house where I can take the dogs out for a walk or a run. My dog is super friendly and loves to play with other dogs at the dog parks, A huge clifford! I have my dogs sleep inside the house with there own kennels. I do have an extra kennel if you do not have a kennel. if a dog has medication i will be following all rules to ensure your dog is well taken care of. photos and videos will be sent everyday at the end of the day :)

About: I’ve had a lot of pets in my past from large and small dogs to cat from every age. I currently have a dog and a cat. I am currently a student doing online classes at Indiana state where I play basketball. I have a great sense of time management and taking your pet would give something to look forward to after a hard day. I have dog park near by and a very social dog to get your pet some nice company. He’s about a year old and he’s a gentle giant.
