I would highly recommend her to anyone who needed a sitter because she’s definitely great at her job.”

About: My 17 years of experience as a dog owner has given me a deep understanding of each dogs unique needs and behaviors. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all ages and sizes—whether in my home or theirs—tailoring my care based on each dog’s unique needs. Whether it's providing extra attention for senior dogs, teaching a puppy basic manners, or adapting to any special requirements, I make sure every pet feels loved, safe, and well-cared for. Since my Australian Shepherds don’t have a flock of sheep to herd, I’m their "job" instead! When I’m at home, they’re my loyal little shadows. They’re surprisingly chill for Aussies, but I like to think it’s because I’m an awesome dog mom... and they’re technically working most of the day as my supervisors. They make sure everything runs smoothly by reminding me if I'm even a minute late with their meals, when it’s time for potty breaks, when to wake up my son, when it’s time to play—the list goes on! I offer caring and reliable dog sitting and walking services tailored to keep your pup happy, healthy, and engaged. As a proud owner of two Australian Shepherds, I understand the importance of attention, exercise, and companionship for dogs. Whether it's a stroll around the neighborhood, a quick potty break, or some fun playtime in a safe and nurturing environment, I’ll make sure your dog feels right at home while you’re away. I provide both in-home dog sitting, so your dog can remain in the comfort of their own space, as well as dog sitting at my home for longer care needs. My dogs are friendly and enjoy making new friends, so your pup will have plenty of companionship during their stay. While I do have a crate available if needed, please note that I do not have a fenced-in yard. My dogs love off-leash play, so if your dog needs to be kept on a leash outdoors, please provide clear care instructions to ensure their safety and comfort.

About: I have taken care of dogs from 8weeks old to 10 years old, and many breeds from small, Chihuahua size to big, great pyrenees. I used to foster cats, and have a cat of my own. Coworkers have even relied on me to feed outdoor animals while away, etc. I work part time, usually 5-6 days a week but gone for no more than 6 hours a day, and can go back to let out and walk on a lunch break. I am in school full time, but all my classes are online so it allows me to have complete free flexibility and not have to attend class in person. I always make sure pets are comfortable, if not more comfortable as me. Pets are a huge part of family’s. They are family members themselves. They deserve love and attention, and to be played with, and fed on a schedule, and exercise too. Also words of affirmation like “good boy” if they do something correct. And “bad boy” if wrong. I have never once hit an animal to show a sign of bad behavior, and think that is wrong.


18. Patrick H.
About: I've been watching animals since I was 14. I watch my families personal pets and watch neighbors pets. I walk them, feed them, take care of dogs, cats with all shapes and sizes. I am currently a student at Purdue and working at a restaurant. I cannot work Tuesday's, Thursdays because of school. Weekends, Monday's, Wednesday, and Friday are pretty open, depends on what time you want to book. I am very gentle with pets, I make sure they have food and water. I love walking dogs, making sure they are getting the right amount of exercise, and I always pick up after them.


19. Shannon C.
About: I've cared for my own animals my entire life..I just turned 40 years old and love caring for other peoples animals to help out if I can. I'm a single mom with my 15 year son. I am unemployed due to personal circumstances, but it helps me take care of my friends, family, and other peoples animals. I want to provide lots of walking and petting and loving to all animals needed watched. All I am wanting to accomplish is my clients animals happy in the end of the day. I watch any and all kinds of sizes and types. No one animal is ever excluded. I used to work as an Correctional officer this last year until now. Thank you for your valuable time.
