House Sitting in Pecksburg

“Victoria was such a great babysitter for Melvin, he had an awesome time with his new friend. She sent lots of pictures and was kind, clean, nice, and professional. Highly recommend her to look after your fur babies”

“We have 2 dogs. 6 month old puppy and 4 year old. Susan helped train them. She walked them and had them outside playing every day. They were treated like royalty! She’s wonderful to communicate with. You can tell she is very experienced with dogs. We felt like we won the lottery.”

About: I’ve had over 10 years of experience caring for dogs from growing up around them and helping care for family pets. My experience includes feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, giving lots of attention, and making sure dogs feel comfortable and safe. I also studied with the goal of becoming a veterinarian, which helped me learn more about animal behavior and proper care. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of different sizes and personalities. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I have a dog of my own and have grown up around animals. I’m already used to responsibilities like feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for every day. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so pet care feels like a rewarding part of my routine rather than just a task. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they’re in my home or a client’s home. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and any special instructions from the owner. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, patience, and supervision so they feel relaxed while their owner is away. I keep the environment clean, calm, and pet friendly at all times.

“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 :)”

“Kristle was amazing!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter to watch our Coco Bella! Kristle was loving and caring! She was so good to Coco! She took her out on walks, played with her, and made sure she was well taken care of. She sent us pictures everyday and was quick to respond! I am so happy we met Kristle and we will be in contact with her for future needs! I highly recommend her services! Thank you Kristle and family! Coco loved you guys!”

About: I'm a recent graduate from IU Bloomington with several years of experience caring for animals, especially cats. I spent two years working in an animal shelter, helping with daily care, low-stress interactions, and making pets feel comfortable around new people and routines. I also have clinical experience caring for a high volume of cats, including shy, sensitive, or easily stressed cats who need a calm and patient approach. I’m very comfortable reading cat body language and adjusting my care to what each individual cat needs. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for many families and individual pet owners, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I’m the type of sitter who wants your pet to feel comfortable and cared for, and I always send clear updates and photos so you feel completely at ease while you’re gone. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. My current availability is: Monday: fully free Tuesday: fully free Wednesday: fully free Thursday: fully free Friday: fully free Saturday: fully free Sunday: fully free I’m very careful about safety and trust, especially with cats who can be cautious with new people. I follow their routine closely, move at their pace, and never push interaction if they’re not feeling it. I’m careful about doors and any escape risks when entering or leaving. I pay close attention to body language and the small things that can signal stress or discomfort, and I’ll always reach out right away if anything seems unusual. I send clear photo updates each visit so you always know how things are going while you’re away.

“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.”

About: I’ve worked with both cats and dogs in a humane shelter setting for multiple years, and I’m ready to meet and get to know your pet! I work full-time but mostly weekends and evenings. I have most weekdays off of work and am always available for a morning check-in for your pet. I am able to move pets between rooms and crate animals if needed in your home. I do not host pets for boarding at my own home.

“I booked Laura for the first time as a drop-in for my 3 dogs. She not only let them out, but she played with them and loved on them. I appreciate the time she spent letting them get to know her. I will be booking her in the future! She was wonderful.”

Kate A.

“Gracie is absolutely wonderful! She is very friendly and easy to work with—she came right out to do an initial meet and greet to see if we were a good fit. She has been just great with our animals, clearly spending a lot of quality time with them, and she has been very reliable and responsive with communicating. Gracie is a great house guest too—she left the house in pristine condition ! We felt very comfortable leaving our home and animals in her care for the first time, and will be definitely be using her again. We highly recommend her services 😁”

Rachael C.

“As always. Zach was the best dog and house sitter! Goes above and beyond, sends lots of photos and videos, and makes sure our dog is getting lots of love and care while we’re away.”

About: I’ve had cats my whole life and started pet sitting other people’s pets in high school. I’ve looked after all types of pets such as hermit crabs, rats, rabbits, cats, and dogs. Since then I’ve adopted two kitties of my own and I can’t wait to look after yours! I am happy to stop by for drop in visits before or after my shifts at work or on my days off, send me a message for more specific scheduling. I am very comfortable navigating your home to your needs. I am happy to follow any instruction given and will make sure your fur baby is happy and safely taken care of.

“Rav did a great job sitting with Charlie, Cooper, and my daughter's rabbit, Sebastian. She sent lots of pictures while we gone. Unfortunately, she got locked out of our house with a bad doorknob. It took her and two neighbors to get the door open! Needless to say, we're getting the doorknob fixed before we go out of town again! I hope that didn't dampen her enthusiasm for sitting our dogs because we have asked her to sit for us again for a longer trip in June. Thanks so much, Rav!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs my entire life. I’ve always had animals in my household. Neighbors, family, and friends have always trusted me to watch their furry friends while they were away. I work part time at a school from august to may. I have plenty of time every day at home to watch and play with your animals. I have a large fenced in yard for my dogs at home. I live with parents so my dogs have multiple people to let them out and play when needed. In clients homes I let them out often and I am able to walk them and play with them frequently.

About: I have my own dog. I've grown up with dogs. I worked at a pet store when I was a teenager, and have house/pet sat before. Although, I'm not a vet, I'm observant and will keep an eye out for issues that concern you. Pet health is important. That includes nutrition and grooming. I know some think there is such a thing as over involved pet parents, I think they're family and should be treated as such. I volunteer at my church every Thursday, Backpack Program fifth Wednesdays (when they occur) and Orphan Grain Train every other month on the third Thursday. Otherwise, I take care of my dad who has COPD. I have to be home to cook for him. And take care of my own dog. Eventually, I will allow dogs to stay with me overnight, but I want to make sure my dog and said dogs get along. So that is my availability. I have a pitbull mix. She is very good around other dogs. Especially after she gets to know them. She's not aggressive, just tends to hump when excited. All dogs will need a leash if they are coming with me. I have walking trails in my community. I have no problem walking your dogs in them. Please make sure they have up to date tick meds. Also I live with my dad he will be petting and loving any pet that spends the night. My house is two story, so if you have a senior dog that needs help just let me know.

“Hannah was very flexible, meet n greet, and is kind, confident, and understanding. She clearly has experience with loud and large dogs as well. I would trust her to watch the dogs again!”

About: I grew up with 7 dogs and loved every second of it! I am looking forward to the day I can adopt dogs in the future. It’s on my bucket list :) I am available on weekdays after 5pm and anytime on weekends. I will love to play with your pup and take it to the park that’s across the street from me for walks. We also have a dog park in my building so that’s also a great place for the dogs to run around and get some energy out. I do not have any animals of my own so your puppy will get 100% of my attention. I live in a very safe neighborhood and building so your pet will be safe without a doubt.

“Sara’s first stay with Mabel was a 10 day stint. She sent daily updates and did a great job. My house was clean when I arrived back home and Mabel was happy. I will be using her again.”
