“Deanna was great, very accommodating with a short notice meet and greet, and took excellent care of the dogs. Loved getting pictures of them playing outside during the visit. Thank you!”

About: I’ve had dogs and other pets for as long as I can remember. When I was about 10, I became obsessed with reading about different dog breeds and their needs. My first job actually working with pets was a dog daycare. I loved building connections with the pups and their parents. At this job, I learned defensive handling skills (how to avoid or break up fights or attacks) and how to handle reactive, scared, and stubborn dogs. I work shorter hours on weekends so I’m able to make plenty of time for your baby, plus my wife is always home and will occasionally help care for your pet when I’m not around. I like to have group play or just time outside when it’s cool in the mornings and evenings. I have a fenced backyard that I check for holes daily and an open front yard (leashes at all times out front). I’m able to crate your dog at anytime they might need it and can even have them in a separate room if crates aren’t their thing. Another bonus is that my wife is home just about full time and is able to care for your pet when I’m not around. If I’m at your house, I will take your dog outside on a leash the first few times just to see how they are and to make sure they aren’t an escape artist once mom/dad is gone

“Ann Marie has been a life-saver! She has been checking in on my dog Ruby for weeks now and has always been so flexible and communicative with me! Definitely recommend! 🙂”

About: Hello everyone! My name is Laina and I’m an animal behavior student at Indiana University open for work! I have extensive experience in animal care with my education experience, volunteer training, and personal pets as well! In my past I have trained service dogs through ICAN and volunteer at The Love Pet Project. Currently I have six dogs at home that I care for as well as two cats! I’m highly experienced with various animal care and aspire to make a career out of my passion! I am available for full time care through the week and weekends or part time if needed as well. I provide daily care, hourly check ins, long walks, bathing/grooming services, or I’m potentially open to overnight stays depending on the client. I provide excellent and safe care for all animals. Depending on the animals needs and behavior I am able to bring them to parks, trails, back yards, or pet stores for play and enrichment! Animals will be kept on their leashes when in public at all times and kept from a safe distance from other animals that may be around! All fences will be checked for damage before animals are let loose to play! In the home all food will be placed in high areas that are up and away from the animals reach. Sharp objects that could causes harm are also placed away!

About: I have had dogs of my own since I was born and pet sat since I was 15...but had experience with drop ins, housing, and walking dogs since I was 12! I love all animals, and currently have 3 dogs of my own since Small, medium, and large! I would love to love on your pets while you are away, so reach out if you need me for anything! I work as a nanny and have a very flexible schedule that allows me to take mostly all visits that are booked a week in advance, and I can work around later bookings! I have a fenced yard and 3 dogs at my house...a small, medium, and large, that LOVE to play. This is an option if you are comfortable with that or I am happy to do house visits or stay at the house!

“Lauran did a wonderful job with our girl, Judy. She sent photos and videos of her daily, which we so very much appreciated! She played with her, gave many pets, and took overall great care of our energetic and talkative cat :) will definitely be rebooking for future trips and would recommend to anyone else!”

About: Since I was 14, I’ve been responsible for taking care of my own dogs and those of my neighbors, family, and friends. I come from a large dog family, from a Great Pyrenees to Labs and German Shepherds, but I’ve also been able to care for smaller dogs in my neighborhood. I’ve also cared for sensitive and reactive dogs who came from hard backgrounds, so I have experience taking it slow to build trust. I also care for cats as well, with experience from my own 13 year old orange cat and my mom’s two crazy kittens. Whether it’s taking them on walks, playing tug of war, giving them meds, or just keeping them company, I love any time I get to spend with fur babies. I’m preparing to leave for a scholarship in Poland at the end of September after graduating with my Master’s degree in May, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am free most days and times with the exception of a few days with prior commitments throughout the summer. I strive to provide the best care with the utmost respect for you and your fur baby’s home. If there’s anything I should know about your pet’s care preferences or any neighborhood/environmental concerns, please let me know so that I may keep your pet safe at all times. I have experience with fenced in yards and open areas, as well as plenty of experience with flight risk dogs (those German Shepherds love to run!) and returning them safely home. My goal is to keep your pet and place safe and clean until you return home.

About: I have had cats and dogs since the day I was born and I have never had an empty house since. I currently own two cats and a dog myself and it gives me such joy being able to take care of others people's pets. I have watched over friends and families dogs and cats since I can remember and I have never had a bad experience! Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, as I prioritize creating a balance that allows me to provide attentive and loving care. My schedule is flexible, enabling me to accommodate feeding times, walks, play sessions, and any special needs a pet may have. I take pride in being organized and ensuring that each pet gets the time and attention they deserve, whether it’s daily check-ins or extended stays. Caring for animals isn’t just a task—it’s a fulfilling part of my life that I genuinely enjoy. I will not be allowed to bring animals into my home sadly. I am more than able to come to you or pick up your dog and hang out with them for the day!

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 10. I love dogs and cats both and have 2 Australian Shepards of my own. Would love to help care for your furry family members. I am open Fridays and most weekend days. I am able to stop in to let out or walk your pet after 5:30 during the week as well. I personally have a fenced backyard and have two crate trained dogs so I am familiar with the process and always strive to keep pets safe.

About: Hi! My name is Hannah Joy, I go by Joy and I grew up on a farm and house sat for Neighbor's and their farms growing up! I have now been house and pet sitting through various apps for 2 years all around the world! I structure my daily routine around the pets I’m caring for. I work remotely on not set schedule and I believe keeping your pets routines the same will help relieve any anxiety or stress while their parents are away. I’m home body so besides an occasional outing I am home throughout the day and prioritize feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and keeping pets company so they feel comfortable and safe. I’m flexible with my schedule, which allows me to adapt to each pet’s specific routine — whether that means early mornings, multiple walks, or extra time for attention and care. I also make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and maintain a calm, consistent environment. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and respectful environment in every person’s home that allow me to have that opportunity. I follow all instructions exactly as given, including feeding routines, medication schedules, and house rules, to ensure pets stay comfortable and stress-free in their familiar space. I always keep a close eye on pets to ensure their safety, whether indoors or on walks, and I avoid any situations that could put them at risk. I also maintain a clean and tidy home while I’m there and treat every space with the same respect I would my own. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away. I also do not smoke/vape and am pescatarian.

“Layla did a great job with my very scared baby.”
