About: i have cared for and worked with all animals from little kittens to strong horses. i love cuddling with lazy couch potatoes but also have given daily meds and walks for higher maintenance pups so they’re always in good hands. i work part time so i have plenty of time to care for your furry friends. i’m available all days of the week and can take time off or commute depending on what your pet needs :) i can give full time, in home care. your pet will be comfortable in their own space, instead of going through the stress of kennel boarding.

About: I've always had the ability to easily connect with dogs. I've spent the past ten years walking and socializing rescue animals as a volunteer at the Humane Society. I've worked with every age range, from puppies to senior dogs in hospice care. I bring that experience with me each and every time I work with an animal, as each and every animal is unique. Pet care is a part of my everyday life. I'm currently working part-time, leaving me with plenty of time during the day to take care of both my animal, and yours. I also volunteer my free time at the Humane Society of Elkhart County. Communication is key. I'll set up guidelines and boundaries with you ahead of time, making sure each animal has their specific needs met during the visit. Leashes will always be used on walks and doors will always be closed and locked when not in use. Do you have certain areas, rooms, or furniture that are off limits? Boundaries will be set up and respected to ensure that both your pets and home will be treated with respect.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life. I’ve potty trained them, taught them how to walk with a leash, taught them tricks like sit stay and say your prayers, and too many to say. I will spoil your fur babies like I do mine. You would never have any worries while you’re away they will be in good hands. I love and enjoy being around dogs and or cats. I’d send you videos and or pictures of your fur baby. Some owners have their fur babies on a schedule if so I will do the same. if there is a park nearby I’d probably take them there. But first I would ask the owner what they would like me to do sense it is their pet. I'm retired so I'm flexible. My routine is the fur babies routine. I'd like to keep it that way for them, so I would need to know. I have a fenced in yard, not big for big dogs tho. They will be fed, played with and cuddled. If they need to be caged I have a large one for their comfort.

About: I’ve spent years caring for dogs and cats of all personalities, and I always make sure each pet feels safe, understood, and genuinely loved. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and comfort so every visit feels familiar and stress-free. What sets me apart is my reliability, patience, and the personal connection I build with each pet—your animals get real, focused care every single time. I’m currently a senior in high school, and have lots of free time after school! I’m available any time after 4pm during the week. On the weekends, I’m almost always available! Whether your pet stays with me or I come to you, I focus on making their routine feel as normal and comforting as possible. In my home, pets get a calm, clean, and safe space with plenty of attention, playtime, and downtime. When I’m caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I follow your instructions closely—feeding schedules, walks, medications, and special habits—so your pet stays comfortable in their own environment. No matter where the care happens, your pet gets gentle, reliable, and personalized attention every time.

About: I have taken care of family pets since I was 15! I am a proud owner of 2 awesome dogs, one is a 6 year old lab mix, the other one is an 11 month old Irish-doodle. I have experience with many different sizes and breeds of dogs while working as the daycare coordinator for a local boarding facility. I know how to do basic grooming such as, trimming nails and bathing dogs. I have worked with animals in many different stages of life with a multitude of medical conditions. I have also earned many different animal care certifications! I am currently dedicating my day to taking care of animals for family and friends. I would love to expand and be able to turn this into a full time job! I would care for another’s person animal as if they were my own. It’s very hard leaving your pet behind, for a day, or week, and they need to know there animals are in good hands. I am willing to give the best service anyone could ask for, especially for the animal and the client.

Marlie is amazing. Very kind, professional. She works with animals every day so she was very good with meeting my two pups. She came to meet me in person last minute the day of booking my dogs. She is very good with communication. Let’s me know if there are any issues/concerns, asks questions once. Leaves detailed notes with pictures. Responds quickly regardless if it’s outside of the time she dedicates for my animals. I would highly recommend her. Thank you!
