About: I have a dog and two cats of my own and I have a deep love for all of them. I can’t wait to meet some of your animals or pets in the future. I do have school from 8 to 3:10 and involved in extracurricular activities but on the weekends and sometimes throughout the week, I am free. My dog is trained to stay in our yard, but in public, I always walk him on a leash and I would be sure to keep your pets and animals on a leash, unless stated otherwise in your directions.

About: Hi! I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid and somehow became the go-to “can you check on my pet?” person for all my friends. I also have a cat, so I’m fluent in both tail wags and judgmental stares. I’m a local teacher, which means I’m patient, responsible, and fully background checked (trusted with a room full of kids—so your fur babies are in good hands). I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they’re happy, safe, and maybe a little spoiled. You can trust me with your fur children—I promise to return them just as adorable as you left them :) As a full-time teacher, my weekday availability begins after 3:30 PM, once the school day has ended. This makes me a great fit for afternoon and evening drop-ins, walks, or overnight pet sitting during the week. I’m reliable, consistent, and used to managing a structured schedule, so you can count on me to be punctual and attentive to your pet’s needs. On weekends and during school breaks, my availability is much more flexible. I’m typically free throughout the day, which allows me to accommodate a wider range of services, including extended stays, multiple daily visits, or last-minute bookings. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and pet sitting is a perfect complement to my teaching schedule. Whether you need help during the workweek evenings or more comprehensive care on weekends and holidays, I’m happy to provide a safe, caring, and dependable experience for your pets. I’m attentive, caring, and fully present during every walk, drop-in, and pet sitting visit. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s keeping up with routines, providing exercise, or offering extra affection and reassurance, I treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: Hi! I am a current Veterinary Assistant, and former Surgery Tech/Animal Behavior volunteer. I have had cats and other pets my entire life, and have tons of experience with pet sitting of all types, and as a dog walker for an animal shelter and another walking service app. I can administer any medications, as I do that every day all day at work. I am accustomed to all types of medical and behavioral needs. I have all kinds of relevant experience but the most important thing is that I can provide safe, reliable, and dedicated care for your pet while you're away. I know how stressful it is to trust your pet and potentially your home with a stranger, but I can assure you, they are in the best hands with me. I will respect your home, your rules, and your pet! I work Wednesdays through Saturdays, and am off Sundays through Tuesdays, and will be fully available during those days. I have no other commitments during those off days. I have only 2 hamsters, so I can provide tons of attention to your pet! I can board cats at my place, but otherwise I can do dog sitting at yours, and can do stop-in visits or just walks. Whatever your pet needs to be comfortable. I am flexible.

“We were happy to find the cats and chickens all well when we returned. Thank you, Stephanie.”

About: Hi there! I’m an avid animal lover with a gentle, patient approach to pet care. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and my rescue beagle, Mylo: a lovable goofball who keeps me humble and well‑trained. I always look after every pet with the same attentiveness, patience, and high quality care I give my own little crew. 🐾 󠁺 Before pursuing social work, I actually planned to become a veterinary technician, and that early passion for animals has stayed with me. I’ve volunteered at the Wabash animal shelter, spent years riding horses, and gained hands‑on experience with all kinds of personalities and needs. Mylo, who struggles with anxiety, has taught me a lot about de‑escalating reactivity and building trust through positive reinforcement. He also takes daily medication, so I’m very comfortable administering meds and following specific care routines. Mylo likes to think of it as his “evening treat with extra steps.” 󠁺 Over the past several years, I’ve pet‑sat for friends, family, and their extended circles. This has allowed me to care for pets of all ages and ranging needs. No matter the temperament, I adapt to each animal’s personality, mood, and boundaries. Striving to create a calm, reassuring environment where your pet feels understood is central to my approach as a caregiver. 󠁺 Please reach out if you have any questions! Your pet's comfort is my priority ❤️ My schedule is currently very open as I wrap up my internship, and I’m available for daily check‑ins, walks, and overnight stays! Please feel free to reach out with any questions, I’m always happy to connect. ❤️🐕‍🦺🎾 I love caring for pets where they feel safest, their home 🏡🐾. While I’m there, I carefully follow your pet’s routine and keep their space clean and comfortable, so you return to a happy, relaxed fur baby and a home that feels just as you left it (or better).

“Sarah is an absolute godsend!! She was able to take care of Dean over the weekend on such short notice—literally night before. She was diligent in following all care instructions, sent pictures every day (so grateful), and was respectful of my home. Will definitely be rebooking if we need drop in visits in the future!”

“Jaime, Was very prompt responding to requests and questions. Was on time and very good with the dogs. Sent us a message when leaving at the end of the evening. Would highly recommend.”

Tim M.

“Rebekah was prompt, responsive, responsible, resourceful, so caring, considerate, proactive, took pictures to give us updates, & called us with questions. She helped figure out a solution when our puppies had escaped their pen while we were out of town. What a relief to have her there!”

About: I have always loved animals and have grown up with at least one dog or cat at the house, I currently have 3 dogs and 3 cats. I have been dogsitting for about 3 years and have experience with dogs ranging from small (like toy breeds) to large breeds (such as mastiffs) . I usually send pictures of your pet having fun on walks or enjoying outside. I have taken care of animals that need medication either orally or through injection. I have taken care of dogs ranging from a year to 15 years old. I strive to give your pet the best experience and can't wait to work for you. I am currently working and have the availability to be work from home. Excited to get to know you and your amazing pet or pets. I treat the pets like my own. I keep the care instructions, while trying to keep the difference to a minimum to keep the pets at ease.

“Paige was wonderful! She provided pictures and videos of our fur babies playing; I could tell they were happy and well taken care of by Paige. ? She kept me updated and was kind and professional. Thanks Paige for taking great care of everything while we were gone!”

About: Caring for animals is my passion, and I have been providing dedicated pet care for over 10 years. I prioritize the comfort and happiness of every pet, treating them as if they were my own, and ensuring a safe, stimulating, and consistent routine. I manage the needs of high-energy breeds with active play and outings, maintain a clean and secure environment, and am vigilant in observing any signs of distress or health changes. I am CPR and First Aid trained. In emergencies, I remain calm, follow pre-discussed plans, and always have emergency contact information readily available. Witnessing their unique personalities and helping shy pets feel comfortable brings me joy. My kindness and empathy make me a great fit for caring for your beloved companions. I would love to use my pet-sitting, walking, and grooming skills to care for your dogs and cats! Available any time or day. Date night, work, sleep, jus need a break I’m here to help with your pets and would love the opportunity. Fenced in yard, treats and food , safe and clean house, plenty of toys and treats and care and anything extra they may need. Thanks

About: I have been caring for animals for 8 years plus counting and it's by far my favorite kind of job. I'm very comfortable with reactive dogs and can use my training to help better understand their behaviors. I have experience with senior dogs and post surgery care. I am comfortable with pet medication and administering when needed for pets. I'm currently working part-time, so my time is very open. I'm available anytime after 1pm during the weekdays and anytime after 12pm during the weekends. I have a fenced in yard and live near a park with trails. I also have 2 crates, a small and large one, if your baby prefers to have their own space. Lots and lots of toys for heavy chewers.

About: Although I haven’t spent much time caring for animals of other people, I have always had a dog in my life to care for and love. I am a mommy to an 11 1/2 year old pitbull named Cash. We have traveled the country together several times and we are always looking for our next adventure. I am his personal chef, driver, groomer, and belly scratcher. I would love to care for your best furry friend! I am currently a part-time nanny, working most of the day on Thursdays and Fridays. Aside from that, I run my own clothing company which allows me a ton of flexibility on a daily basis. My living situation does not allow me to watch animals in my home, but I would love to come to your home where your pet is most comfortable and care for them in the ways that they know and love.
