“In the past, Louie hasn’t done well while we are away. Jennifer was exactly what he needed. She stayed with him and kept him calm and comfortable. She sent us pictures so we knew that he was doing great. When our return plans got changed, she stayed longer to make sure Louie wasn’t left alone. She’s the best!”
“Merissa came through in a pich- very last-minute. The dogs had shredded some papers and she cleaned it up (when she didn't have to). I know I can count on her to take good care of my fur babies.”
“We just moves here from out of state and was nervous about leaving our dogs for a week. Ellie did a great job with our senior babies. She went above and beyond with shampooing our carpet when our dog had an accident on the floor. Our dogs are 15 and 13 and are quite needy and she made sure they were well taken care of. We would use her again”
“Arysson did a great job with my pups! She was willing to drive out to meet them (we live in Owensboro and she lives out in Evansville) before the actual dog sitting. She left the house the way she found it and sent me pictures of my dogs.”
About: I am experienced in energetic puppies and also senior dogs needing frequent medication and some extra love. The only thing I have not done is teach a dog to eat my homework. Pet care plays an important role in my life, even while I'm at university. Since moving to Evansville for school, being away from my family dog has been one of the harder parts of the transition. Even with classes, taking care of other people's pets easily fits into my schedule. I prioritize safety, comfort, and cleanliness when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s. I follow owners’ instructions closely, ensure the space is secure and keep everything clean. I build trust with the pets by respecting their routines and giving them gentle attention. I also keep owners updated so they feel confident their pets are in good hands.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. My family has a certain love for dogs and that has definitley passed to me. My grandmother has a passion for saving unloved pups, from saving a runt from a puppy mill to an old man from a shelter, and I admire her so much for that. I now advocate for shelters and saving even the senior babies. I got my first puppy when I turned 15, an adorable brittany spaniel, and watching him grow into the old man he is now is one of the most gratifying experiences of my life. I helped train him in obedience, gave him baths as often as I could, took him on walks almost every day, and played fetch until the sun went down. My friends and family now ask me to watch their fur-babies. They have asked me to stay in their home and take care of their pets, both dogs and cats. I love saying yes to watching their pets and getting to experience the personalities of each pup and cat. I love grooming the dogs and cats, and then helping my family and friends to make sure not only their pets are taken care of but also their homes. And now I can’t wait to branch out and help you with your fur-babies and your home. I just recently retired from the military and therfore am not currently working, so I have a full schedule to watch fur-babies! I do plan to start studies for animal behavior this year, but will still continue to have time to pet sit. I currently live at home with my family and cannot watch your pets in my home. I do have reliable transportation and can drive to your home whenever you need me, whether it is to juct check on your pet, feed and walk them, or stay in your home for an extended time.
“Evelyn is the best dog sitter! Our two dogs LOVE her. She sends pictures and videos which is nice when you are gone for a while! She also takes them on several long walks a day!”
About: I have always been an animal lover since I can remember. I have grown up being around dogs and have 2 of my own! I am very reliable and would take care of your furbaby like I do my own! I do have a full-time job, but I’m available before work, during lunch breaks, after work, and on weekends to care for your furry friends. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow any specific routines or instructions closely—from feeding schedules to favorite toys or walking routes because I know consistency is important, especially when their humans are away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind while I worked at Pawsitive Pet Perfection for 4 years. I’ve also always had a dog growing up and have the biggest heart for them! I currently work full time but I am completely free on weekends. I can start Fridays after 5 and then give all my attention to your animals the rest of the weekend! I live on the ground level of my apartment so I can easily take your dogs outside and play with them. I also can easily crate and have a huge couch to cuddle and give all the love to the animals!
“Maddie is an amazing pet sitter. She was patient with my Frenchie, Lucille, who can take a bit to warm up to strangers. They are now best friends! Maddie is professional, prompt, responsive and treated Lucille like her own. I highly recommend Maddie!”
About: A safe environment for your furry friends when you're away. I will ensure that your dogs receive the attention, care, and exercise they need. From playtime to walks, cuddles to feeding, I will keep your pups happy and healthy. A loving pet owner of a nine year old St. Bernard. Can administer medicine if needed. I will spend mornings and evenings with your pet(s)! I do work full time; if your home is a reasonable distance from where I work, I can drop by for lunch time potty breaks or walks. Your pet will go no more than 8-hours without me being there. As someone who travels often, I know what it feels like to worry about your pet while gone. I will abide by any house rules (even if that means they can’t sleep in the bed with me), and send lots of pictures and updates to give you a sound mind while away from your pups.
About: I've loved animals all of my life and wish I could rescue every animal in need. Currently my little 9 y/o Yorkie, Ellie May is my whole world, not sure how I'd survive without her so I deeply understand the concern of leaving your babies in someone else's care! My daily schedule is very open and flexible & rates are negotiable. I'm willing to coordinate with you on your needs whether it be for weekdays, weekends and/or holidays. I will always be in tune with your pet's needs and wants and give lots of love and attention so your dog/s will always be safe & happy!
About: I’ve been working with dogs since I was 12 and have spent the past year at a professional pet boarding facility, where I care for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra patience and attention, I’ve gained hands-on experience with a wide range of needs. I’m confident in daily routines like feedings, walks, cleaning, playtime, and helping dogs feel calm and comfortable while you’re away. I truly love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for like family. I work part-time during the week, so I’m available for pet care anytime after 1 PM on weekdays. Weekends are even more flexible—I’m free all day to give your pet the attention they need. This schedule allows me to provide focused, quality care without rushing. Whether it’s regular visits, walks, playtime, or last-minute care, I’m here to fit your schedule and make sure your furry friend feels happy, safe, and loved. I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, so I’m committed to being reliable and attentive every time we meet. I prefer caring for pets at their own home because it’s a familiar, comfortable environment for them, and my home can be a bit busy at times. However, I’m happy to make arrangements to care for pets at my home if needed. My home has a securely fenced yard, so dogs can play and explore safely. Whether at your place or mine, your pet will receive the same loving, attentive care, with plenty of supervision, playtime, and comfort to keep them happy and safe.
About: I have had a dog in my life since age 2. I know what it takes, and will take amazing care of your four legged friend! Walks, playing, and bonding. I am free every day, for the whole day. Besides the daily errands, I will be able to provide all day sitting for your pet, and multiple walks and potty breaks. Overnight stays are welcomed! I live in a house, near a neighborhood, good for walking. Back yard is big and 3/4 fenced in. So your pet can have plenty of room to run around and play. If your dog needs to be leashed outside I’ll make sure I abide by that. I like to provide the owner with daily pictures and or text for updates of your dog. 🐾 I work for myself, and can make my own schedule. I’m very flexible on dates and time, so what ever works best for the owner/pet. Fenced in 3/4 back yard. pretty big. House is cozy. If your dog is crate training and or uses crate I have room for that.
About: For the majority of my life I have lived in a house with dogs, ranging in size from a chihuahua to a rhodesian ridgeback. I would love to stop by and check up on your pup while you are out for the day, or to simply take your dog on a long walk to give them some exercise! I currently have a cat of my own and plan to get a dog down the road when I have more time to care for one, so getting to hang out with your dog for a bit during the day would be as fun for me as I hope it will be for your dog as well. I will try to give your dog all the love and affection they deserve while I am with them. I am in graduate school and have a part time job, but when I have the time to be avaible I will devote it to your pet. I will follow any and all guidelines provided by the owner to ensure your pets safety, health, and security. If entering your home I will ensure that everything stays the way I found it.

“Michelle was amazing! She did a meet-and-greet and was very patient & understanding with us as we're overprotective with our pups. She kept us updated with lots of pictures & videos and responded immediately when we texted with questions. She took such great care of our pups that they stood at the door whining when she left, hoping she'd come right back!! We used her regularly for years until we had to move to Tennessee, wish she could've come with us as we all miss her!”

“Austin was simply amazing! He consistently sent updates, was easy to stay in contact with, even went the extra mile by having treats for my little fur baby. Aside from his professional knowledge on handling pets he is very passionate and personable as well. From the moment my dog saw him it was apparent that he had an unwavering love towards dogs. I came home to a happy and content pupper! I know he's definitely looking forward to hanging with Austin again!”
