7. Camden J.
About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my whole life, so caring for them feels second nature to me. From a young age, I started helping take care of family and friends’ pets whether it was feeding, walking, playing, or just giving them some love and company while their owners were away. I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities, from energetic puppies to independent cats and gentle seniors. I know how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and on their usual routine, and I treat every animal I watch with the same care and attention I give my own. I am currently a student athlete at Indiana here all summer with my team. I did graduate last semester, so I have no classes or other responsibilities after my workouts in the mornings. I have all day after to get pets all the care and love they need without being rushed for time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, pet friendly environment where animals can feel at ease and stick to their regular routines as closely as possible. In your home, I respect your space and follow your instructions carefully making sure feedings, walks, medications, and playtime all happen just the way your pet is used to. In my own home, I provide a clean, secure space with plenty of love, attention, and room to relax or play, depending on your pet’s needs. I always keep a close eye on their behavior and well being, and I’ll stay in touch with updates so you can feel confident your FAMILY is in caring, capable hands.

9. Dani P.
“Dani did an awesome job taking care of our cat. We loved receiving pictures while we were away.”
10. Kensey L.
“Kensey did great as always! Spooky really likes her, and I loved how communicative and responsive she was when our area was hit with bad storms while I was gone. I would absolutely recommend her!”
11. Aaliyah B.
About: I have spent my whole life taking care of all different types of animals, I have been a pet sitter for many. I’ve been around a diverse animal population. Right now I’m currently unemployed, working on getting a full time job soon. My schedule is pretty open until then, I have all the time in the world to take care of your fur babies. I always make sure fur babies have an enclosed area and are always supervised. I would never let one wander around off its leash. Whatever my client is most comfortable with, I will provide. ☺️
12. Katherine F.
“Katie is truly amazing with animals! She’s incredibly loving and gentle with our 14-month-old kitty cat, Mali — always cuddling with her, playing, and making sure she feels safe and adored. Katie has two dogs back home, Gracie and Luna, who absolutely adore her, and she treats them like her babies. She’s constantly feeding and petting the neighborhood cats, and she lights up every time she sees an animal. Her phone is filled with thousands of photos of her furry friends — each one loved like family. Katie is kind, reliable, and has a natural, heartfelt connection with animals. You can trust her completely to care for your pets as if they were her own.”
13. Jeffery G.
“Jeffery once again has been wonderful to our cats. He is trustworthy and communicative! One of our cats are shy and he went out of his way to go upstairs to make sure he got a picture of him under the bed. Thank you so much Jeffery again!”
14. Phoebe H.
“Phoebe took great care of our cat while we were gone and provided updates everyday! She left the house just as clean as we had made it for her”
15. Marisa H.
“Marisa adopted a puppy two years ago, and I have watched her develop into a fantastic dog mom these past two years. Marisa demonstrates extraordinary patience, love, and commitment to not only her dog, but all animals she meets. The first thing she does when she comes home is greet her dog, Cow, with the biggest smile. She always has time to give him plenty of love and attention. Cow has lots of special needs due to allergies, and Marisa is amazing at being accommodating and caring for anything he requires. I promise that if you hire Marisa to care for your furry friends you can expect her to provide the same level of love, attention, and care to your pets as she gives her own. I would trust her in a heartbeat to watch over my own pet, and I can guarantee you will feel the same way. Book Marisa while you can!”
16. Stephanie H.
“We were happy to find the cats and chickens all well when we returned. Thank you, Stephanie.”
17. Jackson M.
“Jackson always does a great job taking care of our sweet kitty cat. He is very dependable while making sure that Yakko has everything he needs and wants including lots of attention. We appreciate the care that Jackson provides for Yakko so he can stay at home while we’re away.”
18. Jessie M.
“She was great! Took good care of Whiskey and answered texts in a timely manner. Will for sure ask her again to look after my cat.”
19. Tawny S.
“Tawny is great at caring for pets. She has helped me with my 2 large dogs on multiple occasions. They love her! She treats her pets like family and goes above and beyond to give them attention and care. I have known Tawny for many years (more than I would like to say!), and she has always been someone I can count on. Her own dogs are well-trained and friendly with other people and pets. She can provide a safe and loving place for your pet, too!”
20. GAGE E.
