YGive stars plus a million more!!!”
About: I have worked with and cared for all kinds of animals including dogs, cats, birds, and common fish. I have been pet sitting for various neighbors and family friends over the years, and I’ve loved every minute of it. Also, I own a special needs dog, so I have a fair understanding of dogs who need a little extra care! I work part time as a non medical caregiver in various clients homes in northwest Indiana. This means my schedule differs from day to day, but I often have breaks during the day between clients. This means I’ll have the means to pop in to take care of your precious animals. While I won’t be boarding in my own home, I am very used to tending to people and animals in their own homes. Every client of mine will receive nothing but the best in terms of safety, trust, and maintaining a nice environment!

“Lilliana is always so great at communicating to us while she sits for our cats and our cats always seem so happy to see her in the photos!! Thanks for everything!!:)”
About: I grew up raising dogs, both taking care of the family pets as well as raising puppies for my grandmother repeatedly. I also have some experience in dog training I work full time, but only four days a week. I can always check on animals in the evenings and I always have Friday/saturday/Sunday free for pet care In a clients home I am respectful of the space that’s there. I find it easier to deal with pets in an environment that is familiar to them as they seem more at ease that way. I do my best to follow any routine an animal has to keep the animal calm and to make sure they receive proper care
