About: I have grown up with animals in my household and family for as long as I can remember. I love dogs (big and small), and have helped train the many we have had. I go to Purdue and I’m home for the summer so my availability is very open. Weekdays and some weekends all day. Just hit me up! As long as you give instructions, I will follow them closely. I have no problem handling big dogs as I am a big guy, as long as they are friendly 😊.

About: I’ve took care of a lot of animals in different breeds for friends, family, strangers. There will never be a dull moment with me and your babies I am a college student so this is a great way to make money and do something I love. I’m basically available anytime after 3 but could work out other times in your favor. I have a nice private backyard, a good size apartment that is always clean, I have 2 male pups that can keep your baby company and if they don’t do well with dogs I can keep them separate as well.

So pleased with Ashley who watched our dog this weekend. She is a great communicator and always kept us informed with picture updates. She left the house in perfect condition like nobody was ever here. Super reliable and highly recommend her and we also plan to use her services again.

Sierra watched out two dogs for the first time and we could not be happier! We received updates and pictures of our pups and felt very comfortable having her watch them! We will be using Sierra again!

We had an amazing experience with our Rover sitter! From the beginning, communication was excellent and we felt completely comfortable leaving our pets in their care. We received updates,and could tell our pets were happy, relaxed, and very well loved while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were being treated like family. We came home to happy pets and everything was perfect. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, I have dog sat for my sisters and friends. I can feed, walk, and bath them. I care for my pets as if there my children and I would do the same for any pet! I got to college online and work a full time job Monday through Friday, when I’m not working I’m home with my pets! They enjoy relaxing with me and my Niko loves car rides! I can do drop in visits and dog walking on weekends any times! Message me and we can definitely work something out! I live in an apartment so I don’t have much of a yard so when it’s not super hot I take Niko on walks let him run around, he enjoys laying outside and chillin. He has so much fluff the heat gets to him ☺️

Bree was awesome and the cats appeared to like her also. She sent pictures and even took out the trash. We will be using her services again. It is so relaxing to be away and know that your pets are happy and well taken care of. I can't say enough about Bree.

About: I've taken care of many different dogs since I was a kid. Family friends, coworkers, and family have relied on me to feed, walk, and play with their dogs. I am a recent college graduate so I have a very open and flexible schedule. I am more than willing to adjust my plans to ensure your pets always have the care they need! I have cared for many different pets with all sorts of medical and behavioral needs. Whether your pets needs round the clock care or just a nice long walk while you're at work I will make sure they get what they need.

About: Let me care for your loved ones while you are away, so you can rest at ease and enjoy your adventure with your family and friends. I love being on the move and having a variety of tasks. I love helping to build a strong community as well in this area. Pets are important family members, and I believe owners should know they are valued as such when they are away. Providing your house and/or your pets is the priority while you are away/or needing services. Let me provide you the peace of mind that your house and your pets will receive the highest quality of attention. I have lived in many countries, led international mission trips, and have cared for many owner's houses/pets.

After 1 1/2 days of being home from one trip Donna came back to stay at our house so we could visit relatives. It was so easy having Donna come and stay at our house for a second time. Familiarity with routines, the house, and dog personalities made it easy for us to go away and easy on our 3 dogs because they remain in familiar surroundings. The timing of this trip to visit relatives wasn't planned much in advance but Donna looked at this stay as a way to help us by providing worry free care for our dogs. The bonus was finding a great macaroni salad in the fridge.

Amara was wonderful with our dog, Coop! She sent us pictures and updates on how he was doing! We were thrilled with her care of our dog and our house as well. When we need another pet sitter, Amara will for sure be on our short list to call! She was wonderful and Coop did so well under her care!!!
