“Lauren is amazing! She responded quickly when I first reached out and made time for a meet and greet, which immediately put me and my pup at ease. When she takes my dog for a walk. she always shares thoughtful updates and the cutest photos. It’s clear she truly loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. My dog adores her, and I felt so comfortable knowing he was in such great hands. I’ll definitely continue using Lauren as my dog walker—she’s the best!”


“Cybele is perfect for Rover. She loves animals and has worked in shelters. She was always on time and happy. Felix the dog likes her quite a bit. Highly recommended!”


“Mary has been so helpful with my Aussie. I just started a new job and moved to the area and I don’t know what we would do without her help. She is communicative, reliable, flexible, friendly, and my dog loves her. Highly recommend.”


“Christy is awesome! She is kind, friendly, professional, and amazing with animals. She has a lot of experience and will instantly become friends with your pet”


About: I have taken care of friends' dogs and cats on and off throughout the years with no problems and I really enjoy caring for for fur babies! I also care for chickens from time to time! I'm pretty flexible with my schedule! I can stop by your house a couple of times a day or stay over night if needed. Right now I cannot keep pets at my house. I will follow the instructions you give me and lovingly care for your pet as if it were my own. I can transport your dog to park if needed.

About: I'm Kort! I'm a full-time pet sitter & dog trainer in Indianapolis and I have been around dogs & cats my entire life! I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities- including pups with anxiety and behavioral issues. I love to play with dogs doing the things that they love, whether that be cuddling, running, or playing with their toys. I always treat my clients pets as I treat my own, and make sure they're as comfortable and happy as possible, whether I'm in their home, or they're in mine. I have 2 cats and 3 dogs who are happy to play with your pups, but I am also able to keep client dogs separate from my pets if needed- safety is my top priority! I'm excited to meet you and your best furry friends!! I create my own schedule, so I can be home or with your dogs whenever they need some extra attention! Whenever I have dogs I'm looking after they are my first priority and I make sure they get the best care possible! I have a large fenced-in yard, and plenty of inside space for pups to run around and play, as well as friendly dogs for you pup to play with if they want (and if they don't, that's fine too)! I have experience with high behavioral cases and can easily crate or muzzle your dog if needed.

“Megan walked our high energy pup for a few days in a row when we needed help. Our Portuguese Water Dog, Phoebe, absolutely adores her and she gets so excited when I say “Megan’s here!” Megan was super reliable and I’d recommend her to anyone.”


About: Since a young age, I've had a passion for animals of all kinds. I've taken care of animals ranging from goldfish to bearded dragons to rabbits to doggies. I love them all, which is why I'm training to be a veterinary technician as I transition out of the technology industry, and eventually into a career as a veterinarian. My husband and I work from home full-time so aside from the morning that I have class, we're both home all day. We're also off on weekends and most holidays so that we can give your pup plenty of opportunities for adventure and quality time. I near a walking trail so I can take your dog on a long walk at least once a day. On weekends, I typically go hiking, or to a nearby trail for a long walk.

About: I have many years of experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I have cared for puppies as well as senior dogs and dogs with disabilities. I am available to help with dogs in the evenings after 5 and on the weekends. I am also free to help full-time in June and July. I have a fenced yard and a senior dog to keep your fur baby company. I can also travel to your home if that is preferred.


“Cole was excellent! He kindly agreed to walk my pup with less than 24 hours notice. He even allowed us to let him and my dog meet the evening before. Very communicative, prompt, and thorough. Definitely will ask Cole to walk for us again!”


“After reading and searching through many profiles in the hope finding the right individual, I was very fortunate to stumble into Rafaels profile. After contacting and explaining to Rafael my situation that I just rescued a Pitbull and that I need help looking after him until I find his home, he took great interest and was immediately available for a one-on-one meet. I could sense that Rafael and this sweet Pittie (Eddie) instantly connected, the moment they had met. Watching Rafael interacting with Eddie, I immediately could tell that he is a very experienced and respectful person, who cares deeply about the needs of animals. Rafael took on the mission walking and spending time with Eddie every day for 30 minutes, which turned out a huge success. Every day, while I am at work, I get a message from Rafael, informing me when Eddie gets picked up for his walk and when he gets dropped off back home. He also sends me a little report card showing me what they did along their walk with a few pictures. Rafael is also open with texting him for anything and everything and he always replies. It’s been three weeks or longer since Rafael has been caring for Eddie now and I could not be happier. Even though I do a lot with Eddie in terms of entertaining and training, but being away at work for long hours, it is totally calming to know that Eddie is in safe hands with Rafael. What is also extremely great and important to know, is that Rafael has a backup person, in case he is already too booked for one day and sends his replacement named Darius, who is just as kind, caring and professional as Rafael. Both, Rafael and Darius are always on time and very communicative, which is such an important factor. And most important.... Eddie loves both of them! It is really wonderful to watch that sweet pup jump, skip and wiggle for joy, when either one of those two come to be with him. All in all, I am very grateful and happy with Rafael and Darius and would recommend both for caring for your Dog, if you ever were in need of a really wonderful, trustworthy and caring Dog-walker or sitter.”


About: I have taken care of dogs of all kinds, shapes, and sizes since I was a teenager. Beyond, that, I have never lived in a home without a dog since I was born, and I think this has really shaped me into the dog-lover that I am today! Currently, I have two pitties that I love more than anything! I work full-time, but have a pretty flexible schedule, leaving me ample time to help care for your pups! Especially on evenings and weekends, I'm your girl! I pride myself on working hard to earn the trust and love (and licks!) of all the fur-babies I work with. I look forward to hearing from you, their parents, about the best ways to do that, as each pupper is different!

About: I’ve never not had a dog! I worked as an animal care technician for over a year. I also have grooming experience from a friend who started their own business! I work a full time job and do this as a side thing. My off days are Tuesday and Wednesday, that’s when I’ll be watching pups. To give the pups the best care I have a dog park in my appointment complex that they will frequently run around in. We eat twice a day. We take at least one walk a day as well as going to the puppy park in the complex. We work on enhancing our skills (training) at least three times a week.

About: I am experienced with dogs mainly as a foster parent with many GSD rescues in Illinois before I moved to Indiana. I am currently employed as a front desk associate and veterinary assistant at Banfield Pet Hospital. I am first aid certified for pets through the Red Cross and am able to give medication and first aid if the situation calls for it. My goal is to provide care and peace of mind to you and your pet. I offer grooming services through my business as well and always provide a report card, goodie bag, and regular check-in's so you are never out of the loop. Any questions are always welcome! I am also always excited to celebrate a pets birthday and will make a safe for them to eat cake because I love seeing everyone happy and excited so please let me know if your pet has a birthday coming up! I am currently a full-time online student which leaves me plenty of time to watch, cuddle, and play with your pets. I also am very active and love to be outside so me and your four-foots will be getting our workout in every time. 🐾 We currently have a chainlink fence completely secured around the entire backyard and covered by a screen that is hard to climb. We do have a creek that runs along our property line but, it is unable to be reached due to a 8 foot fence. We have a trail that starts with a bridge over the creek directly next door and I love to use that as our daily walk path.

“Megan and John are wonderful! Communication is great and they care so much for out dogs. It really helps to have someone you can trust with your dogs and that will treat them as if they are their own.”

“I've had the pleasure of entrusting Sage with the care of my animals, and I can't recommend her highly enough. She's incredibly kind and personable, not just with the pets, but with me as well. You can tell right away that she truly cares. Sage has a gentle, reassuring way with animals that puts my babies at ease, and she's been amazing at giving medications to my pets when needed, and is always calm, confident, and careful. Her experience working at a vet clinic really shows in everything she does. It's clear she’s not just doing a job, but she really loves and understands animals. I feel so lucky to have her caring for mine!”
