“Bridget was amazing! Our dog Luna loved her. She was reliable and very sweet to our wild dog. She actually went out of her way to help us when she noticed an ant problem while we were out of town. We will definitely be booking her for our next trip!”


“It took about 10 days to get Dakota comfortable with Layla to not be afraid. She's an older rescue and signs of abuse are apparent. Dakota is afraid of peopke. Layla was patient and calm and went a Dakota's pace. Now, They go for a walk on every visit! Layla is the best!”


“Mariah accepted my request last minute and was a huge help. She went above and beyond when walking my pup on an abnormally hot day to make sure he didn't overheat. Great communication. Will request her help again.”


About: I have been around dogs and cats since I was a kid. Growing up I had an adorable pit bull that I would feed, walk, and bathe regularly. My family and friends also had cats that I would occasionally watch and feed as well. Recently I have excelled with sticking to strict dietary restrictions for a senior dog I sat to also helping leash train and walk my siblings 6 month old dog. I'm currently working part time and expect to attend college when the semester starts in late August. Luckily between my class schedule and work schedule I have more than enough flexibility to provide the service you and your pet need. I have personal dog walking experience and can provide a comfortable walking environment for your pet. I also have experience with rowdy dogs and can safely handle playtime.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I’m genuine, patient, and pay close attention to every pet’s individual needs. Whether that’s a playful pup full of energy or a senior dog who just wants a calm, comfy space. I treat every animal like they’re mine and part of the family. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and truly present with your pet! I’m available Monday through Friday during reasonable daytime and early evening hours. I try to keep a consistent routine so your pet gets reliable care. I’m flexible with advance notice and happy to work around your pet’s usual schedule as much as possible. I offer care in clients’ homes only, since I believe most pets do best in their own space and routine. I’m available for drop-ins, dog walks, and in-home sitting. I’ll follow whatever your pet is used to whether that’s a specific feeding time, meds, or just getting out for a walk and some fresh air. I’m always respectful of your home and try to keep things as low-stress as possible for both you and your pet!

About: As a dog owner for the first 20 years of my life, I was used to walking, playing with, and administering medication to my best friend. Now, I find myself sitting animals of friends or family! I'm currently in the process of obtaining my Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology at Governors State University. Besides classes and studying, my availability is open to whatever your pet needs! I can give undivided attention on weekends. No other animals are in my home, which allows for your pet to receive royal treatment! Unfortunately, unfenced yard, so your pups would have to be leashed.

About: I've had dogs ever since I was born, I've walked and played with them. I've been dog sitting for neighbors since 2018. I've also volunteered at local shelters to help get the animals adopted by walking them around, and I helped keep their cages and surrounding area clean. I don't have any other commitments I'm obligated to, other than previously scheduled family engagements. I am happy to spend all my time towards caring for your pets! I won't take clients' pets in my home due to me having dogs and one of them is reactive towards other animals. However, this gives me better opportunity to bond with your pets as they won't be stressed from having to leave their home. If you have cameras in or around the home, please let me know prior to me entering, and I am perfectly fine with that! I can follow directions and schedules to a tee, and am happy to do what is needed to give extra love to your pets!

About: I have owned a dog my entire life. I have lived with four, including our old foster dog. I am a kitten foster with Humane Indiana since 2020. Since then, I have fostered over 30 kittens. I am used to the hard work that comes with taking care of animals, and more than happy to do so. I am currently a full time college student so will have time to take care of your pet before, after, and in between my classes. My weekends are pretty free. I have a fenced in backyard along with one dog (king charles spaniel). He is very friendly but can stay separate if need be. I have four cats that are used to other animals with my fostering experience. They will stay away from dogs or can be in the basement.

About: As a previous dog owner and sitter of nearly a decade, I have a very strong skill set when it comes to catering to your unique pup's needs! I am keen on carefully following the instructions left by dog owners while also using my own sensible judgement to make the best decisions for each pet. I can't wait to meet both you and your pup! I am a full-time CMU student, so I'm available to care for your pet(s) predominately on the weekends and all semester breaks during the school year, but anytime during the summer! I live in an apartment that doesn't allow dogs unfortunately. However, I do live within 3-5 minutes away from several parks, including Mellon Park, The Walled Garden, and Baum Grove Park.

“Ashley is so great with Melo. We appreciate you being flexible and accepting this booking just two days ago! Thank you for being so patient, kind, and gentle to Melo. See you again, soon.”


About: I had a Boxer (Lola) for 7 years until she passed away from a heart condition. I trained her myself and she was the most behaved boxer. Even with all her energy Lola still listened to my commands. I live with one American bully and one pit-bull right now and they are always crawling on me wanting pets and love. I love giving animals the attention they need and deserve. I’m currently a pilot for a major airline and looking to play with pups on my off time. I’m available most days. I can do overnights too. I can be available whenever is convenient for you as I can adjust my work schedule as needed. I care for my pets by giving them lots of love and attention. I feed them the best food, good healthy treats, bathe them regularly.

About: I started dog sitting at the age of 14 for my neighbors senior dog. I have always loved animals and love being able to take care of them. I am a certified dog groomer so I have experience with a variety of different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I work part time so I have several days available to pet sit and have plenty of energy to go on walks even after work days I have an unfenced yard and a dog park nearby. I have my 4 year old dog who I take out regularly for walks and potty.

About: As a dog sitter, my dedication to providing personalized care tailored to each dog's unique needs sets me apart. With a background in having dogs, I work well with puppies, helping them develop good manners and basic obedience skills. Additionally, I have experience in senior dog care, ensuring older dogs receive the attention, patience, and gentle care they deserve. My commitment to creating a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment for every furry friend entrusted to my care is unmatched. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine. Each day, I allocate specific time slots for feeding, exercise, and playtime with the dogs under my care. I prioritize their well-being by ensuring they receive regular walks, and plenty of love and attention. Flexibility is key, allowing me to accommodate any unexpected changes or emergencies that may arise while always prioritizing the health and happiness of the pets in my care. In both scenarios, whether caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment for the pets. In my home, I ensure that it's pet-friendly, with designated areas for eating, sleeping, and playing. I maintain a consistent routine, including regular feeding times, walks, and play sessions. I also provide plenty of mental stimulation through interactive toys and games. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their routines and preferences while providing attentive and reliable care. This includes following feeding schedules, adhering to any medication regimens, and maintaining the cleanliness of the home. I strive to keep the pets' environment as consistent and stress-free as possible while their owners are away.

“I would highly recommend Lilly if your looking for a reliable and caring dog walker/sitter. She has always gone above and beyond for our dog Kylo and she is also very understanding when it comes to a schedule change. My job continued changing my scheduled days due to the pandemic, Lilly was able to figure out a way to still make it work for us. Which we really appreciated. She even contacted Rover for us to ensure we got refunded for days that we may have cancelled. Not to mention, she also makes notes after every walk to make sure we always in the loop with Kylo. Lilly is the best!”

Knowing that our animals are receiving the same kind of love and care that our family gives is so important to us. Punctual, responsible, so sweet...Juliana will forever be our go to sitter!”
