“Bridget was amazing! Our dog Luna loved her. She was reliable and very sweet to our wild dog. She actually went out of her way to help us when she noticed an ant problem while we were out of town. We will definitely be booking her for our next trip!”
About: I have owned a dog my entire life. I have lived with four, including our old foster dog. I am a kitten foster with Humane Indiana since 2020. Since then, I have fostered over 30 kittens. I am used to the hard work that comes with taking care of animals, and more than happy to do so. I am currently a full time college student so will have time to take care of your pet before, after, and in between my classes. My weekends are pretty free. I have a fenced in backyard along with one dog (king charles spaniel). He is very friendly but can stay separate if need be. I have four cats that are used to other animals with my fostering experience. They will stay away from dogs or can be in the basement.
About: I've had a dog for 17 years as a family pet that I took care of. When he got older he needed to be carried everywhere. My parents were always working so I took on the role of taking care of him. Now I have a puppy of my own that is less than one. I have trained her along with my other 4-year-old golden. I love animals, and I want to be able to help others in need. I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I have two dogs of my own that I take care of. I am available during the week at any time to help you and your pups! When it comes to walking pets it's important to prioritize their safety and well-being. I also care about the dogs being comfortable with me, and I will ensure that. Overall, I will be attentive, patient, and loving, and make sure they have a great time.
About: They call me that because once you start feeding squirrels, birds, stray cats, neighborhood dogs walking by, and maybe a raccoon & possum once or twice, like me, then you’ll start to befriend them. Soon after it’ll start to feel like animals are attracted to you (but it’s mostly because I give them food lol). I go by Janet and I love animals from feathery to furry. I have 3 birds, 6 cats and 1 turtle (all rescues). I know that with the proper care and instruction I can take care of any friend! New update from November 2025 - I’m back on Rover after a year-long hiatus and accepting new clients in the Chicago land area and northwest Indiana. 😊 My husband and I moved into a house with a spacious backyard in Lansing, Illinois. I’m open for arranging pick up and drop off as I do have a reliable transportation. Lastly, a meet and greet at my home would be ideal so your pup(s) can meet my husband, who will be there a majority of the time, and get a feel of where they will be staying. But rest assured I will be 100% responsible at all times for your pup(s) while under my care. I currently work from home. I set my own schedule, so I’m available to work whenever I am needed including mornings and weekends. Preferably daytime and Fri - Sat date night evening. I care for pets by making sure to thoroughly read care instructions and immediately contacting the owner by either call or txt if I have any questions. And most importantly by never letting them out of my sight!
About: My name is Jorineè and I am a certified veterinarian’s assistant. I have been certified for about 3 years now. I’ve received my experience while working at a veterinary hospital to help pursue my passion for helping animals. I am pretty flexible this is my full time job. I am fully available throughout the week. Your pet will definitely be in good hands. Contact me in advance because I am always able to work around schedules. I will follow directions given by pet parents and if any special needs are needed to be met I am always willing to accommodate your pets needs.
“I have big dogs. They are trained, but I still tend to worry about their strength taking an outside person by surprise. Alex was GREAT with my Boerboels (aka South African mastiffs). I really look forward to her working with my dogs again!”

I can’t recommend Hali enough! She does an amazing job with my energetic pup—by the time I get home, my dog is completely slumped and satisfied. It’s clear she gets the exercise and attention she needs during their walks. After just a week of consistent outings, I’m already seeing an improvement in her behavior at home. I feel so much more at ease knowing she’s in such good hands!
