Pet Sitting in Somerset

“This was the first time I had someone other than family care for my dogs and Taylor put my mind completely at ease! My dogs loved her! She sent tons of pictures and kept me updated. She was great!”

About: Hi my name is Vada and I’m 27 years old. Ever since I can remember I’ve had a love for animals. I’ve been helping to train future service dogs for almost 10 years. I also am a camp counselor for Hoof-prints horse camp, I have been helping with that for over 10 years. Most importantly I love dog-sitting, and I love the feeling that people can put their trust in me. I also love that I’m helping the dog to stay in its normal environment. I even have my own dog, a lab/golden cross named Marbles. I can’t wait to meet your dog!!!! I have an open schedule currently! I can care for your pet(s) whenever is convenient for you. Whether it’s overnight stays or a quick drop in, I’ve got you covered! Since I will be in your home my goal will be to follow the routine that you prefer your dog or other pets to follow and is their normal routine. Including what time they get up in the morning, potty breaks, feedings, walking, and play time. This is something we will go over during a meet and greet at your home so that we can go over it together.

“Ian is the best! Our girls loved him from first sight. We got great communication from him the entire time we were gone. The pictures he sent us captured their personalities which reinforced that we chose the best sitter for them! We were so happy to find Ian and will definitely be using him again. I highly recommend him!”

About: I have 3 dogs at home. I LOVE animals! My oldest is diabetic and gets shots 2 times a day so I have experience in injections. I work 3 days a week so on my days off I’d like this to be a part time job if you will. Love animals I am offering dog walking and drop in visits. I have 3 dogs of my own so I cannot house sit or do doggy daycare.

“Couldn’t be happier! She took such good care of my boys! I think they really would not have minded me being gone longer. Will definitely be asking her to sit for them again. She was great! Thank you so much!”

“I was very happy with Hope. She communicated and took photos on every visit. My buddy was very relaxed and happy around Hope. I will use Hope again in the future and would fully recommend her.”

About: I started pet sitting in 2022 for a family friend and continue to do so for them. I have watched other cats and dogs for family friends. After these instances, I realized how much I enjoyed pet sitting! The people that I work with are very kind and make it so easy on me. I have gathered a few new clients since I started promoting my pet sitting but I still have so much to learn! I try to send many pictures and updates throughout the day and will respond quickly to any questions you may have for me. Hopefully one day I can make this a full time commitment, but for now, I am here to provide care for your dogs whenever I am available. I am a recent college graduate still searching for a job but I have pretty open availability for now. For long periods, the services that I provide are pet sitting and house sitting in one. Staying at your house makes your pets feel more comfortable with me and also gives me the ability to keep your house clean. I will always leave your home looking just the way it did when you left! I can also do drop in visits as well, but I do not bring pets to my house.

About: I've had pets my whole life and make it my goal to make animals feel loved. I have 2 cats of my own currently but grew up taking care of big dogs. I have plenty of free time and most of the time you'll find me laying in bed with my cats. My pets are my whole world and I work hard to make them feel loved. I provide them with love, food and water, bathroom needs, and entertainment. When I'm somewhere new, you'll find me looking for the nearest animal to pet.

About: I love working with animals and showing them the love they deserve. I have many years of experience, including 2 years of professional experience. As a child, I had 2 cats at my mom's house and 1 dog at my dad's house. I learned how to care for them at a young age, and I only continued to learn how to care for pets as I got older. I began pet sitting when I was 12. I watched my teacher's black lab multiple times over a 4 year period. Then, I adopted a puppy and a stray dog who showed up at my porch a couple of years ago. I have taken them to dog training classes and have learned many strategies to help further their education. I also worked with the Wabash County Animal Shelter over the summer of 2022. Now, my wife and I volunteer at the Kokomo Humane Society by walking dogs and fostering. I am getting ready to start my first year of teaching in late July, so I am currently on summer vacation and looking for some fulfilling ways to spend my time. I have an open schedule besides a few days here and there for family events. Therefore, I have lots of time to care for your pets during the week and weekends. I realize that every owner has a different parenting style, so I will happily follow the routine and care as specified. I know that I would be nervous having someone take care of my pups, so I will help alleviate some of that stress by communicating clearly, being flexible, and sending plenty of photos.

“Great as always!”

About: I’ve had pets pretty much all my life. They each become a part of me and stay in my heart forever. I’ve had cats, dogs, fish, birds, and I have cared for them along with bunnies and snakes when I worked at the shelter. I love my pets dearly and will treat your pets with as much love. I currently have more open availability in the mornings so I would be able to check in on your pets for you while you run your errands or you’re at work. Give them the love and attention that you want to give them, but unfortunately aren’t able to. I wake up in the mornings and give my babies food and fresh water. Give them attention once they wake up a little bit. I check their bowls periodically when I’m home and change the water at night and give them a little more food before bed. Along with nighttime cuddles because house are important. I wake up in the morning and take care of my cats first thing. Get them food. I wash their water bowl out and get them fresh water. I give them attention after they wake up a little bit more. I pay attention to their body signs and try to give them what they need. I love and care for my pets and I will do the same for yours.

About: I’ve had experience caring for horses, cats, and dogs. I have nursed many cats back to health in my youth on the farm. I have trained my two puppies and am happy to help in any way possible. I do have experience with diabetes and insulin injections. Senior care with blindness, deafness, and senility is something I’ve very familiar with as well. I am a stay at home dog mom of 3 and cat mom of 1 and have an open schedule to help care for your pets too. I am meticulously tidy and respectful of homes. I am honest and trustworthy and treat your home as I treat my own. My goal is to create a comfortable and happy environment while you’re away and for your pets to be as stress free as possible.

“Paul is so sweet! I have a pup who has high anxiety and he took great care of her. I highly recommend him!”

About: I've had animals since I was 4. Been caring for other people's animals almost as long. I would walk my neighbor's dogs any time they would allow it. I also have a background in veterinary care and am used to administering medications as well as injections to dogs and cats. I have 3 cats and a dog, so I have my small menagerie that I take care of daily. But that won't stop me from taking care of your critters too! I have a partner at home that will take care of my own animals if I need to stay over to care for beloved furry family members. So no need to worry if your fluffy friends need round-the-clock care, I can do it! I have a large yard with lots of space for my dog to run, he knows not to go to the front of the house and stays close to me when we're outside and there are lots of parks nearby to go on walks. We have lots of high places for our cats to climb and perch.

About: I’ve taken care of family members dogs and I also have worked at a dog boarding facility where I was the manager there so I have experience with all kinds of dogs. I currently work full time Monday-Thursday. Here for you long weekend needs or even just evening needs. Very flexible schedule in winter and early spring. I care for them as if they were my own. Spoiled and well loved on but yet also have boundaries to ensure the safety and well being of the dog.

“Jacqui did great with our cat, Flower. We were gone for a week and Flower seemed very at ease when we came home. Jacqui went above & beyond making sure our porch light was on/off when necessary & bringing in our mail. She was on time for every visit & sent photos/updates through out the week. She also responded to texts very fast which was relieving because our service was choppy. We will definitely be requesting her services again in the future!”

About: I have worked at a dog boarding facility in the past, as well as pet sitting! I have experience giving medication and with special diets. I am comfortable with younger pets up to senior pets! I am responsible and responsive! I currently have a full time job Monday-Thursday, so I am looking for pet care work Friday-Sunday! There is an option to provide morning walks every day of the week. I will be very respectful of your home and space while caring for your pet. I don’t offer pet care in my home, because I have a cat.

“I'm so happy I chose Kara! Such a nice person and FluffyPants made a new friend! My shy kitty actually said hello to her! I'll be rebooking her for our August trip.”

“Abigail did such a great job with our dogs and was super communicative the whole way!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every breed for about 15 years. My family runs a pet sitting business as well as fostering dogs. I grew up with all kinds of animals my whole life which made me into the animal lover I am today. I’ve been relied on to walk, feed, bathe, and play with the animals all my life. No breed is too much for me! I recently moved to the area, so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur baby and spend plenty of time with them while I’m finding a job that best suits me! I have a pup of my own and he has lots of energy and will keep your fur baby busy! I live in a house with a fenced in back yard with plenty of room for your pup to run around!
