Love to spoil

Pet care experience

I’m a huge animal lover. I have had many fur, and non fur, family members my entire life from horses, dogs, cats, hamsters, amphibians, and fish. I love all animals as if they were my own and will treat your fur baby the same, with love and respect to not only earn their trust but yours as well! I currently have 2 dogs, a 4y female Maltese that we adopted from a friend. She is very loud/boisterous. We adopted a 5-6y male Cane Corso from Kiya Koda in January. I have 3 older children, 18yr who chose to do his Eagle Scout Project for Kiya Koda in 2019 and 2 (15 & 13) girls who are also planning to achieve Eagle as well. My Full Time job is at the Middle School working with Special Education students. We are a family that goes above and beyond to offer love, support, and patience to the furbabies, and their families, that are trusted to us. I am super flexible with your travel plans because I know how stressful it can be and we can make alternate plans to help ease your mind. I would love to chat more about how I can help you and your fur baby have a fun filled and exciting visit!

Holly was wonderful as always! She took our Poppy to stay in her home for the second time while we went on vacation and made house visits to take care of the kitties. She is the best. Very sweet and loving. I highly recommend her!

Holli was fantastic with our pups! Very grateful that we could leave for a week and know she was at our home with them. She sent updates and photos every day and took great care of them. Our home was in perfect order when we returned - we’d never have known she was there. Would highly recommend hiring Holli as a sitter!

Holli was absolutely wonderful! She and her loving family watched our Poppy for a week while we were on vacation. Right from the start we felt very comfortable and knew she was in a good home. Communication was perfect and we received pictures throughout the stay. We highly recommend Holli and plan to use her in the future!

I would would like to know about any Special diets or feeding habits you us. If your pups have allergies besides the common pollen so I can make sure to avoid those.

A typical day

We love to take our dogs on walks as we are close the the bike trail or car rides to Banner. We love the dog park in Indy and watching them play or throwing balls or frisbee. I reward for positive behavior with treats .. especially after potty breaks! On mellow days, we just enjoy being in the backyard enjoying the nice weather or throwing around some toys.
