“Very polite and professional, will definitely be a returning client for Kari! She walked my chocolate lab named Hiccup even though it started to rain. Thank you so much!”


About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have experience with small dogs and big dogs. I have gone through puppy kindergarten classes with my dog as well. I have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, Guinea pigs, birds and bearded dragons. Pet care fits into my routine as I am pretty flexible on weekends, so that I can let them out frequently. I work as an instructional assistant for an elementary school. I can care for animals before and after work as well as my lunch breaks. I follow the school schedule and get holidays and breaks off as well. I prefer staying in the clients home so that the pets can stay in their comfort zone and as close to their normal routine. With that said, I am also very flexible. I can stay in the home, offer drop in visits or care for them in my home. Whatever the client prefers.

About: I have cared for many different breeds of dogs. Whether that be just feeding, to training and grooming. I have had my personal pets for over 10 years. I have a very open schedule and I am open most of the time. I could fulfill a full or part-time schedule for any owners in need. I have a fenced in yard. My dogs eat off a feeding schedule. I have also potty trained all of my dogs. I bathe my dogs once a week as well to keep them not matted and promote hair and skin health.

About: I’ve grown up with pets and have always been around them. I’m very skilled in dealing with all pet ages, cats and dogs, and all kinds of different breeds. I’m very caring and love to take care of pets the best I can. I will make sure I do any caretaking to the absolute best of my ability. I have a very strong work ethic I am a very vigilant caretaker and provide lots of attention and love. I currently am taking time off from my job and graduate school so I have open availability aside from any personal life obligations. Pet care fits perfectly into my current lifestyle and I have plenty of time to dedicate towards exceptional service. I partake in daily pet care at my parents' home in many ways. I help with cleaning the cats' litter box, picking up messes/accidents around the house, and making sure to clean up animal hair with plenty of vacuuming and laundry. I also love to play with them and provide plenty of cuddles! Additionally, I have gained experience in pet care with our dog Coco throughout his multiple leg surgeries and providing 24/7 care when he was unable to put any pressure on his leg or walk. We have also had sick animals in the past that I have gained experience with. My parents also like to travel and I am the go-to house and dog babysitter during their times away. In regard to providing pet care at clients' homes, I have a year of past experience on Rover. I am always diligent about following all instructions and requests, and providing the level of care needed for each animal. Cleaning the home is also important to me and I make sure to prioritize leaving the home cleaner than I found it. I am detail-oriented and value going above and beyond with communication and exceeding my clients' standards.

About: Willing to negotiate prices! :) I’m a dog lover with 8 years of experience caring for a variety of breeds. I’ve cared for my own two dogs (a pit bull and a boxer mix) as well as neighbors’ and friends’ dogs, including chihuahuas, labs, and golden retrievers. My responsibilities have included daily walks, feeding, administering oral and topical medications, bathing, and more. I’m a full time Ball State student on summer vacation. I typically work Monday to Wednesday 10-5 and Thursday and Friday from 6:30-5. With at least three weeks’ notice, I can adjust my schedule to accommodate you and your pet. :) I’m also available after my shifts and on weekends! I prioritize safety, trust, and respect in every home I enter. I’m always mindful of my surroundings and make sure to clean up after both myself and the pets. You can trust that I’ll leave your home just as you left it—if not better!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life! Not only my own dogs, but friends and neighbors dogs as well. I love animals and they love me. I am flexible and can adapt to serve your pets needs. I have great attention to detail and care for pets in a timely manner, feeding and walking consistently according to their normal schedule to avoid disrupting their routine.

I also have 2 cats of my own at home. I will travel to your home by car! I do not offer care for your pets in my home due to my cats not being very sociable haha!!

“Ella is one of my best friends and she has been walking and dog sitting my ESA when I either need a break or I'm busy with work. She's also insisted me with dog/pet related chores and maintenance, like keeping Marion calm while I clean her ears or brush her teeth. She's even knitted Marion a sweater for the winter time! My ESA is named Marion, she's a "mystery breed" Or mutt. And she adores Ella. Ella is also one of the few people I trust in my private space (i.e. my dorm room or family home), alone with my pet who I consider as my baby. She's never complained when I've asked her to dog sit, if anything shes always happy to do it. Marion trusts and loves Ella and I trust and love Ella. She's a good dog sitter and overall a good person.”

“Noah watched our dog for 9-10 days while we went to Florida. He took amazing care of him. He sent pictures frequently and even kept our house clean. He is a very responsible young man who loves animals. He also took care of our hamster and cat while we were away. I highly recommend him if you are looking for someone to watch your fur babies.”
