Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal Rescue Founder and Foster
In 2008, I began fostering dogs for a local Great Pyrenees rescue in Indiana. In 2010, I founded my own non-profit animal rescue which helped animals and kids through reading. 150 cats and dogs were rescued and adopted, and hundreds of children read to the volunteers' dogs to improve their literacy. Of the 150 rescued animals, approximately 30 were kittens. The non-profit dissolved in 2016, but I continued to foster for other rescues. I am experienced with cats, kittens, puppies, senior dogs, dog training, crate training, obedience training, leash training, aggressive dogs, and fearful dogs. I do not breed discriminate and am familiar with many dog breeds, I am also adept at giving medications, shots, and attending to special needs. I have my own fur baby which consists of a rescued Great Pyrenees.

Ratings and reviews
Pepper absolutely loves Miranda and has fun every time she goes there.
Carolina absolutely LOVES Miss Miranda! When we pull up in the driveway, she can hardly wait to get inside and play! She sends videoed and photos through the day and gives us great eating and playing updates on the River card! I absolutely recommend her! Thank you!
Miranda was wonderful with our 4 month old puppy Darcy. She took time to meet with us prior to booking and answered all of our questions. She was on time and great with communication and pictures. Very reliable, would absolutely book with her again and again.
Miranda is the best! She has taken wonderful care of our elderly English Bulldog two times and we are so pleased with her level of care. She sends text, pictures, and videos to keep you informed. 100% We will book with her again!
Miranda is great with our dog, Pani loves to go, it's like summer camp for her. We not only get regular videos of our dog, but some helpful training tips.
The care and attention Miranda gives our fur baby is amazing! We can enjoy our family reunion because we know our Apollo is loved and happy! She is amazing!

Schedule
I am pet sitting full time and also teach craft workshops, so please know that if I board or provide day care that I MOST LIKELY WILL BE GONE FROM 11 AM- 2 PM each weekday for walks. In addition, I may have workshops to teach at random times in the day or evening and will be gone for 4 hours max. For dogs, I can do drop- ins, walks, and daycare from 6 AM - 11 pm. I limit travel time to 20 minutes or less one way. I also board dogs and cats and limit boarding to 3-4 dogs at a time with safety being my key priority.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a 6 foot privacy fence in my back yard and live in a quiet cul-de-sac. There are two gates and rooms in my house to keep any dogs or cats separated, and I have crates, as needed. I can easily rotate dogs inside and outside. My Great Pyrenees is fine being by himself inside or outside if other pets are at my house.
Pets
A typical day
With the dogs, we can play fetch, play with other dogs, run around in the yard, and do mental stimulation exercises, such as commands. With the cats, we can play with toys, pet them, let them sit in my lap (if they are lap cats), and just give them affection and play time.

- I would prefer to meet any dogs ahead of time with the owner so there is a proper introduction. I would like to know of any special dietary needs, any triggers, dislikes and likes, any physical issues (arthritis,...), if the dogs get along with other dogs, and any other circumstances in order to keep everyone safe.
