Dog Walking in Marion

About: I have experience with all animal types. Dogs, cats, reptiles, and farm animals. Owning a hobby farm, has given us the experience we need for wider options for pet sitting capabilities. I'm currently a stay at home farm wife! I'm available most days, 24/7 care! Most days start at 5 am and end towards 10pm, so all day care is given. We live on a 2 acre hobby farm. While we don't have a fenced in yard, all pets are given the chance to run on a given lead or leash walked for safety! We have 3 dogs of our own, big and small.

“Absolutely the best walker! She was caring and always focused on Sasha. She was prompt and even took extra care to make sure all her needs were met!”

“Syndey has made my life so much easier just in the past couple weeks using her. Winston is very hesitant around most people, but with Syndey he we went right up to her and let’s her take him on walks! Being gone on my long hour days, it is so nice not having to worry about my pups not getting attention because she gives them tons of it!”

“We hired Cindy to dog sit our two boxers. Our oldest dog has anxiety whenever we leave him. She was patient and won him over and he didn’t seem to care when we got home. We have used her twice since and both dogs go crazy when they see her coming! She even did my dishes. We have missed going places because we never felt comfortable leaving our dogs, our daughter is getting married next month and we will be using Cindy once again!!!!”

About: I co-direct a rescue where I foster dogs and have tons of experience handling all sorts of dogs. Your babies will be well cared for, as well enjoy everything from walks to cuddles. Between me and my husband, someone is always home to care for your babies! We already have dogs of our own who need our care as well! I have experience handle of all sorts of dogs! I am patience with the scared ones, as well as the fearful ones. I do also have experience with bite histories and things like that. Someone is always home to watch your dog. We have different dogs on different schedules and are able to keep dogs on the same schedule to ensure low stress levels. We are very understanding with every dog and are able to provide a variety of services depending on the dog or cat. We have the ability to take things slow if needed.

“Lexi is a fantastic pet sitter, as it is obvious she truly cares about the well being of animals. I appreciated how well she looked after my dogs, ensuring they were given lots of love and attention. She also does a fantastic job of providing them with plenty of opportunities throughout the day to get their energy out. This is so comforting to me because I am normally at work for the majority of the day, so I loved knowing my dogs were being exercised and cared for! I feel lucky to have her as my go-to contact for all my dog walking needs.”

I enjoy walks and do not mind going for daily exercise (weather appropriate) or hang in your back yard and play fetch!

“Amanda was wonderful with my Rosie & Gracie. She did everything I asked plus kept me updated on her arrival and sent pics the entire time she was at my house. I definitely recommend her and I will use her when needed again.”

“Bree was super helpful when taking out Ozzy for his walks while I was at work. It seemed like he had a lot of fun when she took him to the park too!”

“Kylie loves fur babies and makes sure to spoil them well. She adopted one of my cats that we could no longer keep and he fits right in with her other two and I could not have asked for a better home for him to go to. When I first met her, she worked with animals and she seemed very happy being able to. Since then I've seen her take on the care of animals (not just her own, including dog sitting for friends) and have so much fun doing it. It's her first priority that animals in her care have food, water, play time, and the appropriate vet care as well. Kylie has a big heart and there is plenty of space in it for your fur baby too!”

“Shelby has always been so great with my 3 year old black mouth curr. I know she grew up with several dogs in the house so I know she is familiar with different breeds and the care for them. I would trust Shelby with my dog any time because I know she would take great care and love her like she was her own!”

“Cass is the most loving pet caregiver you could find. Her love for animals is great. She has taking care of my dog and cats over the years. She has a special bond with each animal she is caring for. She is responsible and trustworthy. She would be a great addition to your team. Thank you Vicky Husselbee”

About: I love working with animals and showing them the love they deserve. I have many years of experience, including 2 years of professional experience. As a child, I had 2 cats at my mom's house and 1 dog at my dad's house. I learned how to care for them at a young age, and I only continued to learn how to care for pets as I got older. I began pet sitting when I was 12. I watched my teacher's black lab multiple times over a 4 year period. Then, I adopted a puppy and a stray dog who showed up at my porch a couple of years ago. I have taken them to dog training classes and have learned many strategies to help further their education. I also worked with the Wabash County Animal Shelter over the summer of 2022. Now, my wife and I volunteer at the Kokomo Humane Society by walking dogs and fostering. I am getting ready to start my first year of teaching in late July, so I am currently on summer vacation and looking for some fulfilling ways to spend my time. I have an open schedule besides a few days here and there for family events. Therefore, I have lots of time to care for your pets during the week and weekends. I realize that every owner has a different parenting style, so I will happily follow the routine and care as specified. I know that I would be nervous having someone take care of my pups, so I will help alleviate some of that stress by communicating clearly, being flexible, and sending plenty of photos.

“Piper is a very caring young lady. She loves all animals. She has a dog of her own that thinks the sun rises and sets in her. She will take care of your pet or pets like they were her own.”

“I have known Erin for may years. Erin has always loved animals. She has a special connection to dogs. They seem drawn to her. I have never seen her being harsh with any animal. I would trust her completely with my family pets.”

“Brody is the best! He has been a sitter for my senior pets, a dog and a cat, many times over the years. He’s always checked on them at the times promised, communicated with me clearly and effectively, and been an overall great pal of my pets!”

“Zack is great with pets! He has a big heart for animals. I have had him dogsit many times, and he takes great care of the dogs. He always makes sure their needs are met before anything else. I highly recommend him!”

About: I've had experience taking care of a variety of pets. I used to have 2 dogs of my own. One of them was missing a leg and required special care. I always treat pets with love and respect. I have Sunday, Monday and Tuesday off of work and I am available anytime on those days. I would love to take care of your dog/dogs! I have a 2 bedroom apartment by myself and have a yard. I will take them on frequent walks and potty breaks. I will play with them and make sure that they are well taken care of and happy.
