Cat Sitting in Ravenswood

About: Many of my friends and family refer to me as an animal whisperer. I have a genuine love for animals and experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I’ve helped care for dogs and cats by providing feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, so I follow all care instructions closely—whether that includes specific feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, or just extra cuddles. I’m also respectful of clients’ homes and make sure everything is kept clean and secure. I’m looking to make a career out of animal care. I’m currently free at whatever times you may need. All days of the week, I am available! When I care for your pets in your home, my top priorities are trust, safety, and keeping your pet comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires confidence, and I take that responsibility seriously. I follow your pets routine as closely as possible—whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or medication—so they feel secure and stress-free while you’re away. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and any changes to make sure your pet stays happy and healthy. Your home will always be treated with respect and care. I keep things clean, organized, and secure, and I make sure your dog’s space remains calm and safe. I’m mindful of doors, gates, and surroundings to prevent any accidents or escapes. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing and can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home.

About: I have worked in pet resorts and boarding facilities, and whether a pet needs extra playtime or snuggles, medicines (including insulin), a special comfort item, or needs to be separated from housemates during meal time, no request is too far-fetched when it comes to taking care of your beloved pets! My experience in pet resorts allows me to offer enriching playtime and exercise, and to notice any irregularities in mood or eating habits, and to efficiently relay that information to pet parents. When it comes to walks, I have a defensive handling certification from The Dog Gurus, and am always aware of the risks that leaving the home entails. In addition, I have completed their Knowing Dogs 101 and 201 courses, which provides me with a solid knowledge base when it comes to dog behaviors and body language. I also am comfortable caring for bunnies, as I have a senior rabbit myself, and am familiar with the closest neighborhood vet that will treat our long-eared friends! Rover is my current focus, so I have a flexible schedule to offer passionate pet care to your dogs and cats! Whether it's walks or a visit, I can get it on the books! Currently not offering boarding in my home, but when it comes to a client's home, I'm able to follow any routines or schedules the pets may have!

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs! I've spent almost 3 years at a doggy daycare, where I'm actively learning how to read dog body language, keep group and 1-on-1 time safe, and handle feeding routines. Over the years, I’ve gained experience working with a variety of personalities including dogs who are reactive or display aggressive behavior. I also have my own reactive dog so I understand firsthand how important it is to be patient, attentive, and consistent. Taking care of animals is something I truly enjoy, and I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently working part-time, but I’m free most Mondays and Wednesdays from the morning through late afternoon. Fridays are usually open from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., since I work at 2 p.m. Feel free to ask about other days too, and I can let you know what works for me 😊 I unfortunately can't provide space for your beloved pet as I have a reactive dog and cat. However, I believe that I'm able to make your pet feel comfortable in its own home even if you're gone. I can be playful but also relaxed. I will be able to give your pet plenty of attention when they want it!

“Annie was amazing to work with and took care of our crazy pups even when they decided to try to be a problem. We will definitely rebook with Annie in the future.”

About: I’ve loved animals for the longest time and have been pet sitting for a while now. Being able to connect with an animal is always a blast. I have friends and family who have relied on me to look over their pets multiple times before. I also pet sit in surrounding neighborhoods. I’m an 2026 Indiana University graduate and my schedule will be very open and available for a while. I have other part times jobs like door dash but other than that I am free. I am very punctual and specific when taking care of pets. I am able to follow instructions very well and I spend quality time with each pet every visit and play with them. I know how to cooperate with pets to accommodate them in any way necessary.

About: I have owned dogs and cats my entire life! I volunteered for the Indianapolis Humane Society for 2 years where I gained experience walking dogs of all energy levels and sizes. I also have experience dog walking for my friends and family. I love all dogs and cats and I am excited to spend time with yours! I am currently home from college for the summer and I am not working, so I have a lot of time to care for your pets! I am available any day of the week or the weekend. My house has a fenced in yard and I do not currently own any dogs and cats, so your pet is more than welcome to stay at my house for the day. I am aware of near by emergency pet care facilities in case of emergency. I am very conscious of how I hold the leash when walking and I ensure that all doors and windows stay shut.

“Katie was great with my kitties. They got to know each other and bonded quickly, and she always sent informative notes and took great pictures of my little guys. They seemed to do really well with her. I would definitely like to schedule with her again.”

Dawn K.

“Tyler has been wonderful! I needed a dog sitter last minute and he really showed up for me. The first day had some scheduling issues and mix-ups (100% mistake on my part) and he was flexible and worked with me. He’s been great at communicating and send multiple photos. I highly recommend Tyler.”

About: I currently specialize in dogs and cats that take a little longer to warm up to new people and pets that need someone with a high attention to detail! Throughout my life I have had 2 rottweilers and a Havanese with my family. I personally owned a black lab who lived to be 16 and now currently own a French Bulldog who is 6. I have watched many friend's and family's pitbulls, lab mixes, golden retrievers and doodle mixes. I have been around dogs my entire life and frequented social settings/dog parks with my dogs so I can easily recognize anxious/stressed behavior in dogs. I would love to walk or watch your puppy and treat them like my own! I currently work summer hours meaning my time is flexible. I typically work about 5 hours a day but I can leave and go back if needed. I currently do not work weekends. I will treat your pet like my own. My dog, Archer, is my baby. He is allowed on all furniture and we enjoy sitting on the porch and people watching. My dog has allergies and a sensitive stomach so I am used to watching what dogs eat/do around the house. I highly detailed oriented so feel free to leave detailed instructions and I will follow them to a T!

“I couldn’t be happier with the care Debbie provided for my Peter! From the very first meet-and-greet, it was clear she cared about animals. Debbie kept me updated with adorable photos and little notes about my dog’s day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Debbie is also very communicative and responsive to all my questions. I highly recommend Debbie to anyone.”

“Nakasha did an excellent job. She communicated expertly with me ahead of time, she arrived on time, did everything I asked and more. I definitely recommend!”
