“I cannot express how much I appreciated the service. Above and beyond in all respects. Pretty last minute booking, very quick to respond. So sweet and kind. Top notch communication and sent all kinds of pictures. Even swept up the litter and did other extras that were absolutely more than was needed. So very appreciative. Absolutely the best pet sitter experience! Thank you so much for your time and effort. You're amazing!”
“Abbi is so sweet and was so nice with my dog!! He is a handful but Abbi took great care of him and was so kind and patient with him. She even called me to tell me that my ceiling was leaking and stayed over while the guy fixed it. I highly recommend Abbi and will be asking her for any of my pet-sitting needs :)”
“I've found my forever sitter! Haley was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! My pets were very well cared for and loved playing with Haley's sweet and gentle dog, Sophie. We returned home to find happy dogs with full water bowls, the mail stacked neatly, plants watered and the floors swept up from my shedding husky. Haley was very tidy and respectful while we were gone. She sent us regular updates and pictures of our doggies. We were so happy with her services and can't wait to travel more now that we've found her!”
“Tasha did a great job dog sitting Nala for me! She was kind, attentive, and caring toward Nala and was willing to work with me on scheduling! It was so nice to be able to go out of town for a night and have peace of mind knowing my girl was being taken care of by a fellow animal lover :)”
“Our pup was clearly happy and well taken care of while we were away. I appreciate how much Sarah took care of our needs (to get lots of updates) and was so flexible and understanding when the airline changed our travel plans on us. Our dog is happy to see us but I bet he’ll be looking for Sarah to come play with him soon! Will definitely hope to have Sarah come take care of him again!”
“Alison was a fantastic pet sitter! We have two big dogs and three cats that are used to having people around all the time, and she fit right into the mold and took excellent care of them - providing plenty of play time, exercise, and snuggles. Alison was super communicative and shared great updates and pictures, and she also took great care of our home while we were away. I would (and already have!) absolutely book Alison again in the future!”
About: I have had dogs and cats of my own since I was 8 years old and love all animals. For the past few years, I have been helping care for the pets of family and friends when they need me. I love going on walks with them and playing with them. I currently work 3 12 hour shifts at and indianapolis hospital and would love to spend my free time around animals. I am scheduling pet care around my hospital schedule so you and I don’t have to worry while I’m at work. I am a very loving care giver and will spend as much time as possible playing with your pets. I love taking dogs on walks or throwing a ball in the back yard or even just snuggling on the couch.
“Shelby was great with the boys. They seemed happy and calm when I got home from a longish trip. She contacted me immediately when there was a bit of a scuffle and handled a couple of surprises well.”
“This was our first time using Rover. We had Ben come over for a meet and greet. Ben paid close attention and took notes on everything we discussed. We had him do one overnight at our house with the dogs. He communicated well and let us know how the dogs were doing. Also sent daily pictures of the dogs. We would recommend Ben for dog sitting.”
“Maya did a great job watching our pup Nefi while we were out of town.”
“Stacey was amazing! Our baby has pretty high energy and he was having a really hard time the first day but she had so much patience with him & kept working with him to make him feel more comfortable. She even did daily check ins with me. We will definitely be using her again! :)”
“Ann was fabulous with our elderly min pin and kitty. They both have meds and a schedule that works well and Ann was able to master that for the time she cared for our two furry kids. She spent a couple of nights and days and both pets were calm and fine when we returned. I would have Ann sit for our kiddos again!”
“Kyla was dependable and attentive to our dog Rue. She took daily care of Rue including medications and sent us daily updates. She also left the house looking just as when we left it. Highly recommend.”
About: As a child, I had several pet dogs. As an adult, I had two great dogs for the family. Now recently retired, I occasionally sit and dog-walk two grand dogs. As a retiree, my schedule is quite flexible. I am available any day of the week. I can walk or check in on your pet at any time during the day. I'll be consistent with your pet and alter my interaction depending on your and your pet's style. If I'm at your home, I'll treat it with great respect and leave everything as it was when I arrived.
“We hired Emma to house sit our three pugs for a week while we went out of town. She greatly exceeded our expectations and was reliable, friendly and trustworthy with our dogs, staying in daily contact with us and providing excellent care!”
“Kaylee stayed with our doggies for 12 days while we were on vacation and she did an amazing job. Both Aspen & Ruger were well taken care of and loved and at the end of the day that's all we could ask for and all any pet parent really wants. The house was clean when we got home and we'd absolutely have her back. Our dogs are a handful, but she was always so kind when we checked in with her and I appreciate that. Book Kaylee, she's so awesome!!!!!”
“Lexi is one of the best sitters out there! You can tell she is passionate for animals and treats them as her own. She was so great at communicating with us and is very responsive. We received a video update on our pups as well. The house was left in the same shape we left it in. Very kind, sweet, and caring girl!”
“Thank you so much for watching the dogs last minute!”
About: I did an internship at medical mutts where I trained service dogs and helped take care of them. I’ve watched friends dogs. I train dogs too! I’m not really doing anything, so I’m available pretty much whenever, I am totally flexible. I can do long term or short term schedules. I want your dog to be safe! I’m unfortunately not able to do boarding at my house, but I can take your dog out to see my little brothers or my grandma because she loves dogs, I can take your dog to the park and I can even train your dog!
About: Hello! My name is Nicole, and I recently moved to the Martinsville area and am reopening my pet sitting business. I’ve been providing professional pet care for dogs and cats since 2016, and my boyfriend, Evan, and I are excited to continue offering services here. We're animal people. We share our home with two senior cats and a playful young Basset Hound named Banjo. I am a nurse by profession, so I’m comfortable giving all types of medications. My boyfriend, Evan, works from home, which means there’s always someone around to give your pets undivided attention, frequent walks, and potty breaks. We're well-experienced with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. The dogs we sit in our home must be comfortable with cats and other dogs. We offer a calm, quiet environment for docile, shy, or senior dogs, and for young or active dogs, we can provide a fun and playful atmosphere. We're also comfortable reinforcing any obedience or training you've been working on, so your pet won't miss a beat. If you're looking for a safe, loving home for your pet while you're away, we'd be honored to take care of them! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a meet-and-greet. My partner and I work from home so we are here and very attentive to all pets that we board. We're familiar with basic dog training, obedience, and safety. We live on a quiet farm in a small house. The area is really quiet and not close to any main roads. We prioritize safety for our pets and boarders
