About: I’m the kind of sitter who loves your pets like family—because to me, they are. I’ve cared for animals of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I’m always learning more about their behavior so I can give them the best, most thoughtful care. I’m patient, playful, and love building trust with each animal I meet. When I’m babysitting, once the kid is in bed, I usually end up curled up with the family pet (not saying who I like more—that wouldn’t be fair). And if I ever disappear at someone’s house, you can bet I’ve found the pet and made a new best friend. Whether it’s walks, snuggles, structure, or quiet company, I’m here to make your pet feel safe, loved, and completely at home. I’m currently an athletic training student at Valparaiso University and doing an internship over the summer, but my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m often able to work around short-notice requests or odd hours, so don’t hesitate to reach out—even if it looks like I’m booked or unavailable. I’ll always do my best to make it work for you and your pets! Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pets. I’m probably someone who does a little too much research to make sure every detail is right—whether it’s proper walking manners, keeping pets safe in different temperatures, or understanding the best foods and treats for their health. I want you to feel confident that your furry family member is in knowledgeable, caring hands and that their environment is always secure, comfortable, and loving.
“Tormud is extremely picky with new people, but he took to Nichole very quickly. He behaved well with her and loved the routine he had with Nichole. Tormund was also fine snuggling with Nichole for days where he did not want to do a long walk. Nichole always showed during the times we discussed and even took in some unexpected packages for me. We will love to have Nichole again!”
About: I have always loved animals, dogs especially hold a place in my heart. I grew up with several different breeds of dogs and cats, so I feel my abilities are diverse enough to take care of many different breeds and types, big or small :). I’m currently working full time mostly from home and I am an OT grad student, my classes are online, and just trying to make ends meet! I recently bought a home, and my fiancée and I absolutely love animals and we are looking for some company with your pups or cats:) I am very willing to adapt to whatever will make your lives easier, at the end of the day it’s your animal and I can understand how important they are in the family, so disrupting a routine is the last thing I would want to do!
About: I currently have 2 senior pups who I’ve raised since they were puppies. I love dogs of all kinds and conditions. I’m willing to do whatever to make your puppy happy and healthy. I am a full-time IU student on summer break. I will be here and available in Bloomington until July 12 and I will have a lot if availability while I’m here ☺️ I am very comfortable with animals and will listen to what they want and need. I am an attentive listener and will follow your every direction down to the letter. I know dogs and cats can be sensitive and the smallest change in routine could cause distress so I make sure that I understand what they need to be comfortable.
About: I have taken care of animals for friends and family for years! I love taking care of dogs and cats, and giving them extra love. I’m temporarily unemployed (actively looking for a job) so I have all the availability in the world. Once I have a new position, I’ll readjust! I’m a very adaptable person who love rules and information, I’ll always work closely with you to ensure your fur babies’ have the consistency needed.
“Excellent, highly communicative, did not late cancel/showed up on time. Treated our animal with respect and kindness, very personable. Highly recommended, she saved us in a pinch!”
About: Hi I’m Regan! I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 12, with services including pet sitting, dog walks, drop in visits and more! I work for myself and as a Pilates instructor, so I would be able to check on your pets throughout the day as needed :) I make sure the home is tidy and animal safe and create a space for them if they have a bed, kennel, or toys depending on the needs of the pet.
About: I have been house sitting and taking care of pets throughout high school and college. I have two cats of my own. I treat any pet as if it is my own when watching them! I am free a lot of the time and can work around many different schedules. I am easy to work with and am very flexible! I play with my own cats every chance I get and make sure they have everything they could need or want. I do this with the pets I watch as well because that’s how I would want my cats taken care of!
About: I have been around animals my whole life. My family and I have always had pets in the house. Currently we have 7 pets- 5 cats and 2 dogs. I am confident while handling all sorts of animals. I can make almost any animal love me. I will play with your dogs, let them run around and play outside, and if they enjoy, will play with them outside as well! You can expect your pets to be well taken care of. I will feed them on time, walk them, give them treats and make them feel loved while you are away. I have an online job so my schedule is pretty flexible! I am free most times of the day, so if your dog needs to get a little energy out with a mid-day walk, let me know! :) I am also a photographer so would love to send pictures of your fur babies to you while you are away. I love meeting new people and would love to work with you and your family to ensure your pets are well taken care of while you are away! I'm currently working part time online so I have plenty of time to play with your pups or kitties! I can make most schedules work! One thing I ask is to be made aware of any pineapple scented items(soaps, air fresheners, food, etc.) before entering the home as I am severely allergic. I will be sure to feed and play with your pets according to their regular schedule. If they have certain bed times/times to wake up I will be sure to follow all rules!
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, parrots, chickens, and horses, and have some dog training experience. I just graduated from college, so I have a relatively free schedule as I transition, and would love to dedicate that time to animal care! I make sure I am very attentive when seeing what the pet needs, and I make sure to accommodate for whatever recommendations my clients would like to see being done. I also have a flexible schedule and can work around whatever is needed for them to remain happy and healthy.
About: Hello! I am an IU alum and live on the west side! We have a fenced in yard in case your pup needs to run off some energy while boarding! We have two 5 year old black labs - Kennedy & Finn - who are our babies!! I work from home full time and I am available most weekends as well! I am very responsive via phone, text, or email. I work from home and my work schedule is very flexible! I am able to care for dogs in my home and visit homes to take dogs out and on walks! My husband and I keep a very tidy house and have automatic secure trash cans. We never leave food out and do not believe in scraps given to our pups. We definitely take the necessary precautions such as neutering/spaying, chipping, and vaccinating our pups. They are also on flea tick & heartworm medicine.
About: I’ve cared for animals of all kinds for 20+ Years. Mostly horses, dogs and cats. My friends, family and colleagues have relied on me to help with daily essential needs (grooming/bathing, exercise, quality cuddles etc). I really enjoy learning and bonding with each animal and getting to know their different personalities. I am currently working part time to help my mother while she is on dialysis. I thought this would be a great opportunity for me and my community, as I have the extra time on certain availability days selected. I try to keep to a schedule in my own home. Our family dog gets let out at 6am, fed at 8am, outside time 8:15am, morning nap, walks from 10am-11:30am, playtime/snuggles 12pm-2pm, outside time, 3pm-4pm walk, 5pm-6pm dinner, outside time, 8-9 bedtime.
“Wonderful job as always. She was available on one days notice to come let my dog out. Does a great job and is very friendly. I highly recommend her and will continue to use her. Thank you,”

McKenzi B.
“McKenzi has watched my 9 year old bulldog consistently for about 3 years now. She does a great job at sending photos and updates while I’m away on travels. My dog, Lucy, struggles with anxiety and has to take daily medication for her joint pain. McKenzi is always consistent and provides the needed care. She also goes above the standard expectations by giving extra TLC when needed. Lucy looks forward to having her over anytime I’m away and I know my beloved pet is in good hands with her.”
Sara C.
“She does great! Very friendly and calm with our high energy dog. He really likes her and is happy when he realizes now is time for their walk!”

Lexia H.
“We usually travel with our dogs, but when we left the country for the first time a few years ago, we hired Lexia to take care of our 3 dogs. She sent us daily picture updates like we asked and followed their schedule to a T. She has watched our dogs several times since then because now I have someone I trust in my house and with my girls. I would not hesitate to hire her again.”
Lucy D.Star Sitter
“Lucy has stayed in my home for multiple days to care for my 3 dogs - one of whom was elderly and unwell, one who is high needs, and one who is rambunctious. They can be a challenge with their different food and medication needs, one of them can be aggressive when the mood suits him, and they all demand constant attention. She handled them like a pro! She also left my home in excellent condition. We could barely even tell she was here. I would trust Lucy to stay in my house and care for my dogs again without hesitation!”

“Mya was wonderful with the care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats. She did exactly what we asked and cared for our animals extremely well. She communicated with us well and gave us updates and photos during her time with our animals. Mya is caring and loving with the animals giving them the attention they need. We definitely highly recommend Mya for your dog or cat needs and will hire her again!”
Dani P.
“In the 12 years of being parents to Oreo, our Shihtzu, we have always taken him with us everywhere with the exception of 2 previous times with family. Due to our last travel being to a Mayo Clinic in Az we couldn't take him. Plus we recently adopted Tillie, a kitty cat. Dani was available to pamper and love on our babies with a list of dos and don'ts to follow 24/7 for 10 days. We received adorable pictures, Oreo happily ate, which is rare, and we weren't to sure we were missed by them! We were beyond pleased with Dani being in our home and giving the best of care and love to our fur babies.”
Abigail G.
“Abi is an amazing person, and I would trust her full heartedly anytime with the care of my two dogs. She is very reliable, kind, and consistent. She follows through with what she is asked to do, and is a diligent worker. I have had the honor of being her professor in the psychology program at our university, and she has excelled as a person and in her work throughout getting her degree. I could not recommend her more!”
Addison D.
“I’ve know Addison for years now and I highly recommend her for this position. She is very caring and kind, loves to help others, organized and responsible, and is an amazing dog caregiver!”
