House Sitting in Shipshewana

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the past 11 years, I own 2 golden doodles. I can bath, walk, feed and play with any dogs. I’m currently a senior in high school trying so save for college. I am free all the time after school or sports practices, and free on weekends! I can drive which makes it very easy for me to go watch your puppies! I can easily come to your house to watch your dogs any time you need. I will follow any instructions you have for the care of your dog!

About: Hi, I'm Jaela! I’m an elementary school teacher, and animals of all ages and sizes have been the absolute center of my world for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm surrounded by a wide variety of animals, which taught me from a very young age how to read animal body language, handle different temperaments, and provide compassionate, patient care. Throughout high school and college, I regularly watched and walked dogs and cats. I love house sitting because it allows your pets to stay completely relaxed in their own environment while maintaining their exact daily routines. I come from a family of veterinarians, so I grew up immersed in the world of animal health, safety, and care. As a full-time elementary school teacher, summer is my favorite time for pet care! Because I am on summer break, my schedule is completely wide open. Your pets get my undivided attention, structured routines, and endless love right at home.🏠❤️ As an educator, structure and safety are second nature to me. I focus on keeping your pet’s exact routine. I provide consistent feeding, fresh water, medication if needed, plenty of playtime, and lots of love. I treat your home with total respect, keeping it clean, secure, and tidy while sending you regular photo updates!📷🐾

About: I grew up with dogs & cats my whole life. I dog and cat sit for a relative of mine which kind of inspired me to start this. Hey there! I'm Michael I work evenings at AT&T, so my mornings and select days off are completely free – which means I have reliable, consistent time to care for your pup or cat. A little about me so I'm no stranger to hard work, staying on my feet, or handling messy situations calmly. I'm punctual, pay close attention to details, and I'll treat your pet like my own.

About: I’ve taken care of all different ages and types of animals and i love working with them all, Im willing to house sit at your house over night or just to feed, let the animals go to the bathroom during the day! I work full time on the weekends (friday-saturday) and on weekdays I have full availability. Depending on the circumstances I can make changes, just let me know beforehand When it comes to pets I handle them with care, respect and love. With dogs, i appreciate owners who have a specific diet for their dog, it doesn’t bother me to go that extra step to feed them, i like to take them on walks and play with them! With cats I love to take care of as well, playing with them and making sure every animal is healthy and safe!

“We were a little unsure about having someone come stay with our dogs, but Mykala was definitely the answer to prayers. Our concern was completely gone upon meeting her and our dogs loved her. She was so attentive to them and of course they loved that. She always kept us up to date with what was going on and she sent us pictures, which showed us how content and happy they were. We definitely will be taking more trips knowing Mykala will be keeping Bandit and Lindy company.”

“Rebecca was amazing! My dogs liked her the minute she came in the door! It was so reassuring to know Rebecca was caring for our babies while we were away. She also took excellent care of our home. We definitely recommend her for drop in visits or - as in our case - full time care in our home. We like to travel, and will definitely be calling Rebecca for our next trips!! Thank you very much, Rebecca! P.S. Avalon and Sierra miss you! ??”

“Kaylie did an awesome job, and now has a new best friend. I will definitely have her watch my pup again.”

“We had a great experience with Jordan. He was not intimidated by the energy of our two rambunctious boxers, and he gladly handled any behavior issues that arose while they were in his care. He took wonderful care of our home and did the things we asked like get the mail and take the trash to the road for pickup. Jordan was responsive whenever I checked in and he took the time to provide thorough updates. We highly recommend Jordan and hope to use his services again in the future!”

About: Hello! I’m Valeria (you can call me Val) and I am a part time pet sitter. I currently work full time remotely. I enjoy running/walking at the park so having a partner tag along won’t be a problem. I am willing to provide any extra care your dog may need. This includes providing snacks, preparing specific meals, or even spending extra time outside. I have experience handling dogs, cats, birds, small animals and even chickens! I don’t have experience with senior dogs or giving injections/oral medication but I am willing to learn and will provide the best service for your babies needs. Feel free to message me for your specific needs or if you have any questions. Thanks! I usually let clients know my availability and advice on how I will structure my schedule to best accommodate their pets needs. During weekdays my availability is flexible because I work from home. I like to tour homes to be aware of exits/entrances, restricted areas (if there are any), and exchange contact info in case of an emergency.

“Morgan was so lovely, helpful and flexible. I had reached out several times and our schedules finally collided. She was friendly and responsive and I’d have her watch/take care of my girls (2 dogs) any day. Thanks Morgan!”
