About: Hi! I’m Sydney, and I have over 6 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I previously worked as a kennel attendant at a local animal shelter, where I was responsible for feeding, walking, cleaning, monitoring behavior, and ensuring the overall health and safety of the dogs in my care. I am experienced with senior and special needs dogs, including administering oral medications and carefully following detailed care instructions. I understand how important patience, consistency, and attention to detail are, especially for pets who need extra support. I’ve cared for puppies, high-energy dogs, anxious dogs, and pets with strict routines. My goal is always to keep your pet comfortable, safe, and on their normal schedule while you’re away. I treat every dog like my own and provide regular updates so you can feel confident and at ease! Pet care is my full-time focus, which allows me to dedicate consistent time and attention to every pet I care for. I structure my daily routine around feedings, walks, playtime, and any special care needs to ensure each pet receives reliable and attentive care. Because this is my primary job, I am able to be flexible, maintain consistent routines, and provide dependable updates while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can remain in their familiar environment and routine. I understand that staying in their own space reduces stress and helps them feel safe and secure while you’re away. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medication, and any household rules. I am respectful of your home and maintain a clean, secure environment at all times. I ensure doors, gates, and crates are properly secured and prioritize your pet’s safety during walks and outdoor time. Clear communication is very important to me, and I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

He listens to all of your wants/needs. Again, Eli is amazing & thank you so soo much!!! <3

Amanda was awesome and so communicative. She made sure we knew our babies were being taken care of and having a good time. She gave them more than adequate play time and i’m betting our cats miss her already. Thanks Amanda !

Maddie was responsive and understanding of the special care our older cat needed. Our pets were happy and comfortable when we got home. She sent a video of one of our skittish pets being comfortable enough to come out, which was nice to see. Thanks Maddie!

About: I currently have two cats, but have taken care of many dogs and cats throughout my life. I’m a nursing student but also have a huge passion for animals. I’ll be sure to treat your fur baby like one of my own! I’m currently in nursing school so my schedule changes multiple times a year, but I am currently available all day on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and the weekends. I am unable to care for pets in my home due to one of my cats not getting along with dogs and most cats, but I have no problem caring for your pets in your home. I will follow all provided instructions regarding care for your beloved pet.

About: Growing up with 5 dogs in my mom's house at all times, I can assure you I know how to handle whatever situation arises and your dog will be showered with care and affection! I am currently a student at IU Bloomington with a pretty open schedule so I am free whenever your furry friend needs me! My weekends are pretty free, especially during the day!

Andrew is a godsend. We've had him to sit for our Rhodesian ridgeback and our Staffy twice, for 4 days and 10 days, respectively, and we have both times come back to 2 happy and healthy dogs, who looked at us like we had only been gone a short while. They had neither gained stress weight nor become too skinny, and we could tell Andrew had been diligent taking them out frequently. He had mixed in their favorite food toppers and given them their medicine as we asked. He is a kind person, and you can tell he thinks deeply about things, and people's and pets' feelings. He even swept and tidied up, got our mail from our mailbox, and had our packages all neatly inside. He is as the proverb says, a good traveler who leaves no mark, leaving our house exactly as, if not better than, he found it. I can't say enough about the peace of mind Andrew has given us, especially the second time, since we already knew we could trust him. We were able to go to Disney World and have a truly magical time because we knew he was caring for our dogs and our house as we would have done.

Alexandria was awesome! We used her for overnight stays. She kept in contact with us during her stay. Jack, Tequila & Moo all seemed to love her! Tequila is almost 18 and needed oral medication and she administered it without any issues. The house was very clean and probably in better condition then we left it. We definitely will be using her again!

Was very pleased from the meet and greet through the fur baby sitting time. It snowed and Becca kept an area shoveled for the dogs to go outside and shoveled the front for us to return . Everything seemed the same as we left it and the dogs were very happy to see us but not in an anxious manner. They got along well. Would definitely have Becca back again.
