Pet Sitting Lake Station

“I needed care for our cat unexpectedly over Labor Day weekend and Megan not only quickly responded to the request but was flexible when booking. She showed up and sent the best pictures and thorough update. She made it really easy and gave us peace of mind. Thanks!”

About: I have 10 years of experience as a pet owner as well as 3 years of experience as a dog walker / behavior specialist volunteer at a local animal shelter. Over the course of the past five years, I can confidently say I’ve handled over 1,000 dogs of different sizes with ease. Additionally, one of my dogs is a senior with a daily medication regimen, so I know how to pill dogs without any fear tactics. I am also Fear Free Certified! I’m available for boarding throughout most weeks but really open up on the weekends. I am enthusiastic about meeting pups every day of the week! I have a privacy fenced yard and 3 dog friendly dogs to keep your babies company! I am comfortable leaving your pup in a crate if need be, but if not, they can free roam in the dog room (complete with a toddler bed and a tv!).

“Mekynzie is great, I always get so cute pictures from her stay with my dog, it makes me feel beeter knowing that she visit him and take him pee. Thank you!”

“Katie was absolutely wonderful! She watched our dogs, Nico and Nora, while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was always punctual, incredibly patient, kind, and genuinely loving with both of our dogs. She also made such a great impression during our meet-and-greet by being so sweet and patient with my little girl, which meant a lot to us. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dogs were in such caring hands while we were away. Katie is truly a wonderful person, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter!”

“Chyanne was very attentive and went the extra mile to make sure my cat was occupied and taken care of while I was gone. She even left a card with treats and a toy. Would highly recommend!!!”

“Melanie is the best! It is the first time using her services to care for our cats and she did a great job. She is kind, punctual and professional and most importantly, was great with each of our 3 cats who have 3 very different personalities. Will definitely be calling upon her for future care visits.”

About: Grew up having a dog (or 2 at times…as well as bunnies…and some other reptiles!). I currently live in an accommodation where I am not able to have a pet and I have become to miss animals more and more! There is no such thing as a bad animal, only a poorly trained one, and I treat them all with love and care. I’m available every Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday all day (and night)! My schedule can be as free as needed on those days and I am open to spending lots of time with your pets to make sure they get the best care possible! I am very careful and thoughtful around pets and other people’s property. I will treat your belongings and animals with the utmost respect and care.

“Allie was wonderful with my dogs and put me at ease. It is so hard to find a trustworthy and reliable human that you trust to take care of your beloved dogs. She was timely, sent pictures, and our golden girls really adored her! To top it off, she washed my dog's bowls after their lunch! That was so unexpected, but it was sweet surprise to come home to clean bowls. She definitely goes the extra mile. I would definitely use Allie again, ven for overnight pet sitting while we are out of town.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals has always been something I genuinely enjoy. My family has trusted me to care for their pets over the years, whether that means feeding them, taking them for walks, giving them plenty of attention, or simply keeping them company. I also had the opportunity to regularly care for a family’s dog for over two years, which gave me valuable hands-on experience and taught me how important it is to understand each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I treat every pet in my care like they’re part of my own family and strive to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy and want to make an important part of my life. I plan to make caring for pets a priority and dedicate the time and attention needed to make sure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I understand that pets are family, and I want to provide them with the same love, patience, and attention I would want someone to give my own pets. I’m excited to build a routine around pet sitting and create a dependable experience for both pets and their owners. When caring for pets in someone’s home, their safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications if needed, walks, playtime, and any specific needs they may have. I also pay close attention to their behavior and surroundings to help prevent accidents and make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. I treat every home with the same respect and care that I would want someone to show my own home and pets.

“Daryl is the sweetest and treats my fur babies like her own. We’ve already re-booked with her to take care of our kitties. If you want a kind and caring individual who cares for your pets the way you do, look no further, she’s the BEST!”

About: I have over five years of hands-on pet care experience and currently own a senior cat who is currently 13 and a 9 month old puppy who I recently adopted. Both have taught me the importance of patience, routine, and gentle care. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, including seniors who may need extra attention, slower pacing, or medication reminders. I focus on understanding each pet’s personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my routine, as I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of time and attention. I’m available for weekday services after 6 PM on Fridays, and I’m fully available on weekends for boarding, drop-ins, or extended care. This flexibility allows me to be present, attentive, and consistent with your pet’s routine. I focus heavily on creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I follow owners’ instructions closely, maintain clean spaces, and make sure pets are always supervised and secure. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and individual needs, and I always prioritize your pet’s comfort, safety, and well-being whether in my home or yours.

“April was amazing with Zoë! She provided updates throughout the day and Zoë had an amazing time. I look forward to working with April again in the future.”

About: I always love to make sure the pet is well taken care of not just physically but mentally. I always wanna make sure they're happy just like normal people. The biggest thing that does make me happy is seeing other animals, I used to try to help every animal I came across ever since I was little I always wanna go up to them and give them every percentage of love (with owners permission of course). If you have cats i will definitely do cat care also and can take care of them in our home. For dog's I unfortunately cant take care of them in our apartment because its too small and unfair for them, but i can do stop by visits before work or on my days off or even after work. If your cat or dog needs any type of special needs, just teach me how to care for your baby and i will learn it quickly and give them the care they need. I do work nightshfit at the Valpo Highschool from 9pm to 5:30am I am currently working another job so unfortunately I have a small tight availability. I work mostly closing shifts(1:30pm-10pm) and the off days i have are Fridays and Saterdays I also have a 2nd morning job from 7am-1pm but my Husband has a more open scedual I love to take photos of people's pets so a photo update will be no problem! I treat other people's pets like they are my own or like they are someone's child.

About: We have always had pets (Mostly Dogs) growing up and have never met a dog or cat that didn't like us. We are the type of people that animals (Fur Babies) just feel at ease with. From the smallest of toy and lap dogs to the much larger Great Danes and Mastiffs. We will always get along, even the dog that nobody can handle and scares them. My patients never wears thin and eventually all, even the most stubborn pet warms up to me. Any pet under our supervision will always be taken care of from walks, to alone time to calm their nerves if need be but NEVER neglected. We truly believe that your Dogs and/or Cats should and will be treated just you would. Thanks, Between my wife and I we are essentially available 24/7. And hope to accommodate any ones schedule. Our routine will be scheduled around whatever is needed We have a full half acre completely fenced in (Wooden privacy fence). And of course whatever it is you and your dogs like enjoy we will accommodate.

About: I have had a lot of experience since my teens and I continue to have a constant bond with animals. My newest edition is a Bern doodle. I have a wonderful home for your fur babies and sometimes watch my fur grandbabies also . So they can have interaction with them and me . I can basically offer services of your needs just let me know what your baby loves and I can agree to almost agree with anything to make them happy and comfortable.

About: I have taken care of all different kinds of dogs from sizes and breeds since I was a kid. Throughout my life I’ve had several dogs all types of different breeds and sizes, from a mastiff to a miniature poodle. So, I have lots experience in dealing with dogs in different ranges with breed,size, and age. I also have experience with cats, hedgehogs, guinea pigs, and hamsters. I am working full time currently, I am off on the weekends unless and normally completely free these days. I work during the day most days. I usually work evenings one day out of the week,tuesdays. I am very flexible outside of my time with work! I currently have a dog and 3 cats. With my dog we feed him in the morning and evening, throughout the day I usually play with my dog let him out to go potty, and a couple walks throughout the day to keep them moving. I also feed my cats morning and night and play with them throughout the day and clean their litter box in the evening.

“We were very pleased with how Sabrina showed great patience with our pets. She communicated very well throughout the entire visit 👏 with text and pictures. Thanks Sabrina 😊. We hope you will be available in the near future because of your professionalism.”

About: I’ve been a dedicated dog mom for 6 years and have experience caring for dogs through all kinds of situations — from energetic puppy stages to recovery days that require extra patience, comfort, and attention. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, and I’ll care for them like family. Pet care is already a big part of my daily life. My days naturally revolve around walks, playtime, feeding schedules, outdoor time, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, relaxing together, or giving extra attention when they need comfort and patience. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medication instructions if needed, and make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and comfort. I also respect my clients’ homes by keeping things clean, secure, and providing updates so they can feel at ease while they’re away.

“Our meet and greet was good. Cleo was a bit anxious but Sonya was able to get her calmed down. Thank you”
