“Tara always gives the best updates, lots of pictures, and takes such good care of my dog while I’m away. I never have to worry about him when she takes care of him.”
About: I’ve always grown up Surrounded by dogs and cats , along with a few fiber creatures. I’ve done all the responsibilities for taking care of them since very young age and adopted my own cat at 17 and since then have had several cats in the care Of my home along with dogs also. Big and small. I’m able to do the standard grooming for your animals and make sure they are clean. We have 4 animals here at the house and they all have their own uniqueness. With them you do so many diff things to make sure all animals feel included . Also with them being crazy always getting a mess it’s a lot of cleaning to do and looking out to make sure everyone is ok and healthy . Basically a lot of cleaning and looking out for them. They are pets but they are also like children We have a private wooden backyard fence for the animals to go out there and chill and play outisde without having to be on a leash. We also live next to parks and good walking places for if they want to go out walking and sniff around
About: I am the proud grandchild of a certified crazy pet lady. My grandmother had five cats and two dogs for most of my childhood, so I am well-versed in the patience and love it takes to care for your pets. I work part-time and am a full time student, but I have lots of availability on the weekends and during holidays to care for your pets. I also find myself out and about in the city all the time, so I’d love the opportunity to care for your pets while exploring new neighborhoods. I know that your space is your own (and your pet’s, of course) and I will be sure to treat it with the care and respect that I would my own.
About: I have taken care of my families dogs and cat ever since I was 13. I have plenty of experience feeding, walking, and bathing pets! I am currently a student and work a part time job, so I am mainly available early in the morning or later in the evening. I have more availability on weekends! I currently live on an on campus apartment, but have plenty of outdoor space to take pets out. I can crate your pet if that's your preference and will give your pet plenty of love!
About: I have experience with dogs of all kinds. One thing that separates myself from other dog walkers is that I treat each pet how I would treat my own and I treat my own like my kids. My goal is to provide the same care for your dogs as I expect for mine. Pet care is a major part of my daily and weekly routine since I own a dog walking/sitting business. I am almost always available to meet my clients needs for their furry companions. The only times when I am not available is when I am coaching basketball. Unfortunately, I do not care for pets at my home. However, when caring for pets in your home I will keep them on the exact routine as they are accustomed to to make them as comfortable as possible.
About: I have taken care of many animals from dogs, cats, horses, cows, and even hamsters. Animals are more than just pets they are family members. All throughout high school till now a lot of family and friends have reached out to me to take care of their pets for days or just walks. I’m am great at keeping routines, and making sure you pet gets all the attention they need. Most importantly I want to take great care of your companion and family members. Right now I have a completely open schedule unless communicated other wise. Anytime and any days works for me. Contact me for scheduling details. Thank you! I will follow all guidelines when taking care of your pet. Safety is my number one priority. Making sure your pet and/or home are safe at all times though out my time with them.
About: I'll make sure your animal is well taken care of. I will treat them like my own. From a morning walk to a relaxing night, I'll be there for your animal. For me, fur baby care comes before myself. They get fed when it's time to eat, never late on that. Don't forget the morning treats for those teeth either. I always have an extra leash in my car. No fur baby ever leaves my eye site. I always walk the yard to make sure there is nothing that can harm them.
About: Ive had pets my whole life. Ive had 2 golden retrievers the last 15 years and lost my last girl last spring. I miss them terrible but not in a position to own an animal full time presently. Looking to love your animals... I currently teach school. I will basically live at your home until you return. This is the least stressful for your animals. Especially for older animals. My goal is happy pets when you return. I have no other family commitments. Love animals and their company. I will walk them daily and play to help with built up energy. Keep them on their schedule. I talk to them, treat them with respect and will be affectionate as much as they are comfortable with.

About: Hi! I’m Gianna — a lifelong animal lover with a dream of becoming a veterinarian. I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, so I’m confident with everything from playful puppies to senior sweethearts. I offer flexible availability, including walks, drop-ins, overnights, and plenty of cuddle time. Whether your pup needs exercise, company, or just a loving presence while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family. Animals are my passion, and your pet’s comfort and safety always come first! I’m currently a flight attendant but I usually only do day trips so I’m always available after or before work. I know my schedule a head of time so that will never be an issue. I’ve grown up always having dogs and cats but since moving out I don’t have any. So I currently don’t have any animals as of now.
About: I have cared for animals of all kinds—cats, dogs, and birds—since I was a kid. My experience includes caring for my own dogs, from newborn puppies to senior dogs with special needs like managing diabetes. I also volunteer at Jeffersonville Animal Shelter, where I walk puppies and help get them some fresh air and exercise. Additionally, I’ve had the opportunity to care for coworkers’ dogs, which has made me comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds—no dog is too small, big, young, or old for me. My own fur baby sadly passed away this past April due to cancer, and because of that, I’m passionate about spreading love and care to as many animals as possible. This work means as much to me as it does to those I’m helping! I work Wednesday through Saturday from 8 AM to 6:30 PM, so I’m happily available to care for your pets full days on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays. I’m also available to stay overnight during the week to keep your furry friends company and make sure they feel safe and loved. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or just being there for snuggles, I treat every pet like my own and make their happiness my priority. :) When providing in-home boarding, my goal is to ensure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for in their own familiar environment. I follow your pet’s daily routine as closely as possible—from feeding and medication to walk times and bedtime rituals! I treat your home with the utmost respect and care, keeping it clean, secure, and just as you left it. I maintain open communication throughout the stay, providing regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: After going through dog training with 4 dogs (and 2 additional in service dog training) as well as volunteering at a cat shelter for 3 years in college, I feel prepared to encounter many pet situations! From administering medication to meeting basic needs and providing lots of love for all ages of animals, I've done it all! First thing in the morning, I walk my velcro dog, Shadow, a loyal lab/border collie/beagle mix for about a mile. When I get home from work, Shadow and his momma, my Sunny Girl, and I eat dinner together before curling up to watch their favorite show, Law & Order: SVU until we fall asleep. Occasionally we snack on cheesesticks or whipped cream together, too! In a client's home, I value following detailed directions to ensure the pet's routine is as close to normal as possible. Their safety is my priority, and I know they may be a bit dysregulated with me taking care of them instead of their normal human! I focus on creating a bond with them through whatever their motivation may be - snacks, positive reinforcement, petting, etc - and will only go for a walk with a secure leash. In the backyard, I'll verify that the gate is secure before heading out! I'm there to do a job, and it's one I take seriously: giving them the best wags-and-purs experience I can until they see their humans again!
About: Hi, I currently am in school to become a vet technician! I have experience with difficult dogs and cats from my time working in the animal shelter, as well as dog and feline medications! I have 3 poodles of my own! and I have also owned rats and hamsters before. I would love to cater to your furry family! I currently work a 9-5 pm at a veterinary hospital. I have plenty time for your furry friends and their overall well being and task that may come with that. I am very flexible to fitting your normal schedule to keep your pets as comfortable as possible. I will make sure your pets are take out frequently and are able to get lots energy out and love.
About: I have been an animal sitter for several years and have loved every minute of it! I treat your fur babies how I would want my fur babies to be treated and loved. I currently work full time during the day. Over my animal sitting years, I make sure to take care of your animals in the morning before work, on my lunch break if needed and all evening after I get off of work. When I am with your fur babies, they get my full attention. I have stayed at clients homes with their animals several times over the last 8 years. I find it makes it easier for your fur babies to be in their own element while you are away.
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and I even worked in veterinary care for a while. I now am a work from home dog mom, and I am here to help make sure you know your dogs are safe and cared for while you deal with everything else life throws your way. I work from home so I am able to provide attention and regular bathroom breaks for dogs. Weather permitting, we have a backyard safe for playing and we can get some light exercise in on my lunch or after work. I have a fenced in yard and a dog at home to keep your pet company. If you prefer it is not an issue for me to keep the dogs separate. I do require a meet and greet before officially accepting any new dogs to confirm that our pets will get along.

Gianna P.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Gianna P. as a caregiver. She has provided safe, loving, and reliable care for my large dog during long workdays and frequent travel. Gianna is attentive, responsible, and incredibly warm—qualities that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She consistently went above and beyond, ensuring my dog felt comfortable, exercised, and cared for. Her thoughtful communication and natural ability to connect make her a standout not just as a pet caregiver, but as a person. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”

Olivia C.
“Dependable. Friendly. And genuinely cares about the animals. Have used her multiple times to watch my 2 older dogs because they do not do well in a kennel and it’s nice to have someone who will reliably come check on them when I am away. She will send updates when she checks in and lets me know my animals are safe and well cared for. Highly recommended.”
Michaela R.
“Michaela has provided care for our pets on multiple occasions. We have 3 dogs, 2 very large. One of my dogs requires medication when it storms or there are fireworks in the area. Without this medication he has hurt himself due to anxiety. It was nice to have someone as knowledgeable as Michaela take care of him. I know my pets are safe and I trust that Michaela knows how to handle most situations regarding pets.”
Caitlyn P.
“Caitlyn has cared for my Maverick several times, and she's simply the best! She sends adorable updates and pictures while watching him. In fact, Maverick gets so excited to see her that he sometimes even pees himself—just one more sign of how much he loves her. Highly recommend her care!”
