“Camden was very caring and conscientious about taking care of our six cats, while we were away for six days. He took pictures and gave status reports, and even took in my mail. He has familiarity with many different kinds of animals, and we trusted him in our home 100%!”

“My two shy kitties obviously loved Amanda based on the pictures of them playing! One of them had to get medicine and had to be encouraged to eat and Amanda was successful every day! She seems very knowledgeable about cats. I appreciated her daily photos of the cats (and the empty food bowl!). She was always on time and did a great job. She was also really helpful and responsive about a small snag with Rover’s charges. I would definitely book again with Amanda!”

About: Hi! My name is Bree, and I am a lifelong animal lover who would be thrilled to help care for your pets while you're away. Animals have always been a part of my life, and I have owned dogs for as long as I can remember. Currently, our family shares our home with a dog, a cat, and a flock of chickens, so I am comfortable caring for a variety of animals and understand the importance of providing reliable, attentive care. My husband and I live in Zionsville with our three children, and we stay actively involved in our community. I work at our local middle school during the school year and have a very flexible schedule throughout the summer. In addition to caring for my own pets, I volunteer extensively with my children's activities. I serve as the treasurer for my daughter's club soccer team, help my husband run our youth lacrosse program, and enjoy participating with my son in Boy Scouts. Whether your pet needs a drop-in visit, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, or a walk, I will treat them with the same love and attention I give my own animals. I understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I am on summer break from our local middle school where I work during the school year. I am available Monday thru Fridays, morning/afternoon/evenings, and occasionally on weekends. I am available for daily drop-in visits and check-ins to feed, walk, play with, and give your pets the attention and companionship they deserve. Whether your pet needs a potty break, exercise, playtime, fresh water and food, or simply a friendly visit while you're away, I am happy to help.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. I was always the one to clean up after them and ensure they had new toys and a clean space to enjoy. I am currently working part time and off Fridays. I would like to earn some extra cash to continue growing my daughters savings so she can get a good education. I have a fenced in yard. I currently have 3 dogs and a fish and a toddler. When walking my dogs, I usually take all 3 and make sure I am aware of my surroundings due to have frenchies I am always extra cautious.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, including a Black Lab, Miniature Pinscher, Rottweiler, and German Shepherd. Being around such different breeds has taught me that every dog has their own personality, energy level, quirks, and way of showing you what they need. I also have hands-on experience caring for dogs in my family. I regularly help care for my sister’s two dogs—a 1-year-old Corgi and a 13-year-old English Bulldog. Having both a young, energetic dog and a senior dog has given me an appreciation for how different their needs can be. One may want to play, explore, and keep you moving, while the other may need a slower pace, extra patience, comfort, and a little more attention. I also frequently care for a French Bulldog in my family when his dad needs someone he trusts to look after him. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog individually and learning their routines, personalities, favorite activities, and little quirks. I also have experience caring for Ozzie, my mom’s boyfriend’s 7-year-old Whoodle. Spending time with Ozzie has given me even more experience caring for an adult dog with his own personality, routines, and preferences. I enjoy taking the time to learn what makes each dog comfortable and happy rather than assuming every dog needs the same type of care. And of course, I can’t forget Mochi, my boyfriend’s approximately 5-year-old Chihuahua-Terrier mix. Mochi is another special part of my life and has given me even more experience getting to know a dog’s individual personality, routines, habits, and quirks. Caring for him has also taught me that sometimes the smallest dogs have the biggest personalities! What makes pet care special to me is that I don't look at it as simply a job or a checklist of feeding, walking, and letting a pet outside. Your pets are family, and I want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you're away. I’m naturally very patient, attentive, and nurturing with animals. I pay attention to the little things—whether a dog needs some extra exercise, some quiet time, reassurance in a new situation, or simply someone to sit beside them and give them some love. I’m also comfortable giving pets the time and space they need to warm up to me rather than expecting them to immediately feel comfortable. Whether your pup is a playful youngster, a laid-back senior, or somewhere in between, I’ll take the time to understand what makes them happy and make their care feel as close to home as possible. And because I’m a lifelong animal lover, I genuinely believe that four little paws come with a whole lot of love—and deserve a whole lot right back. My schedule is currently flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, including weekends when available. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and make sure they receive the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they need. I communicate openly with pet parents and do my best to be dependable and flexible with scheduling. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or visiting for a walk or drop-in, I treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. Before caring for a pet, I like to learn about their normal routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications if applicable, favorite activities, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. I’m patient with pets who may be shy or take some time to warm up to someone new, and I pay close attention to their behavior so I can recognize when something seems different. I’m also very mindful about doors, gates, leashes, feeding instructions, and keeping pets safely supervised. I want you to feel confident knowing that while you’re away, your pet is receiving loving, attentive care and your home is being treated respectfully. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable—and for you to have peace of mind while you’re away.

“Jac was a wonderful cat sitter — extremely attentive, great at communication, and made me feel safe leaving my little buddy alone with her for close to three weeks. This was my first time using Rover and I was initially nervous, but immediately from the meet and greet it was apparent Jac was both a true professional and animal lover. She was so gentle with my cat and attentive to the cat’s level of comfort, be it initial wariness or a later desire to play. Throughout my trip Jac sent wonderful updates and lots of photos, and even let me FaceTime with kitty when I was particularly missing her. I never for one second had to worry about if she was being well taken care of, and it was evident even from my cat’s body language in the photos how happy my cat was. Normally when I get home from a trip, kitty is absolutely crazed, but this time she was remarkably calm and didn’t seem stressed at all. I will absolutely be using Jac for future cat sitting needs, and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a top notch sitter!!”

Absolutely Wonderful Cat Care! 🐾❤️ We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for our 2 kittens and our adult cat! From the very beginning, we felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such caring, capable hands. Our cats were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved while we were away. The communication was wonderful, and we truly appreciated all the updates and attention to detail. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our fur babies were in good hands. We highly recommend Hailey to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and dependable.😸😻😸
