About: I don't remember a time when I didn't have a dog in my life! I grew up with dogs and have been involved with dogs since I was little. I have owned and interacted with a variety of breeds. I grew up helping my grandfather train horses and my grandmother train service dogs. So the love of animals is instilled in me! I am very comfortable around a variety of dog breeds and personalities! I have 5 dogs( 2 senior girls and 3 active ladies)! I own 2 Mudi which is a Hungarian herding breed. I actively show and compete with them in AKC and UKC events. I also own a cat! She is a feisty gal who is very opinionated! I am a medical assistant and with that comes the confidence to handle medical issues or requirements your pet may need! I am comfortable providing medication or medical care that a vet has prescribed to your pet! I have also completed a cat and dog first aid/CPR course through the Red Cross! I look forward to getting to know you and your pets! I am a stay at home mom which allows me to adjust my schedule to fit the needs of you and your pets! My family members will not be helping with pet care. I can't do visits until 8am due to kids schedules. I am currently unable to stay over night in your home. I can stop by your house 3-4 times a day depending on pet needs but I can’t sleep at your home. I would provide high quality, loving care on a schedule to help maintain your pets comfort. Safety of your pet is my top priority closely followed by their comfort. I want to get to know each of your pets like they are my own. I want your pet to enjoy me and much as I will enjoy them! If your pet comes to my house for day care I do require them to be create trained. Occasionally I must leave my house for no longer than 2 hours. My pets get created if I am away as that keeps them safe! I do have a security camera I would keep on your pet if I must step away. I have also completed a cat and dog first aid/CPR course through the Red Cross!

About: I’ve taken care of family friends pets and neighbors pets over the years including cats and dogs. I have 5 dogs and 1 cat of my own. I have always had dogs growing up and we also had cats over the years as well! I have 5 dogs and 1 foster cat of my own! My typical day is pretty open at this time as I do not have a full time job, I spend most of my days with my pets and house cleaning! Due to me having 5 dogs I do not offer watching in my home, but I’m more than willing to do drop in visits, walks, or even overnight stays in your home!

About: I grew up with an Australian Shepherd Blue Heeler mix and loved teaching him new tricks, going for walks, and playing enriching games that helped get his energy out. My parents added a Chiweenie to the family a couple years ago, so now when I visit, I love to walk them both! I often dog/house sit for my parents; being in their home environment seems to be most comfortable for them. Aside from dogs, I graduated from IU Bloomington in 2021, and have switched careers to work for a local school system. I am looking for something fun, active, and outdoors for the summer - what better activity than dog walking?! I cannot wait to connect and meet your furry family! I have the summer off to help care for your pups! My current schedule is open and flexible - I can be available almost any time with some notice. Send me a message and I will get back to you ASAP! I will ensure to adhere to any dog schedules/routines, send regular photo/text updates upon client request, and care for your dogs like my own. I will do everything in my power to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. You can expect frequent and thorough communication - don’t be afraid to leave detailed lists/notes of exactly how you want your dog cared for. I will do my best to mimic how you care for your pet to ease any distress and make your absence as enjoyable as possible for them.

I really appreciate Devin’s availability and willingness to respond to me when I blew up her phone ;) I literally could not find a pet sitter in this area that would respond to me. I have a lot of anxiety about leaving my dogs, and so it was nice to have someone who responded so quickly. (On a semi-unrelated note to pet sitting, she also took really cute pictures of my dogs which was helpful to my daughter while we were gone).

Lorissa was very good with my fur babies while my husband and I were gone on vacation for 4 days. she followed my Instructions very well. Gave the dogs their meds every other day, she was patient with my Cowy while he was stressed. We really appreciate the updates and photos she sent to us regarding poop reports, feedings and water intakes each visit. I’ll definitely recommend Lorissa to take care of your fur babies too.

About: I’ve always had dogs, ever since I was born, so I have a LOT of experience! I have been trusted with my friends’ pets as well, going over to their houses to take care of the dogs and play with them! I am working part-time right now, so I have pretty good flexibility when it comes to needing someone to come and take care of your pets. I can do some weekends and weekdays. I am not available Wednesday evenings after 4. I will feed them (a certain amount of times a day if that is what you normally do) and make sure they have plenty of water. If they normally go in a crate during the day/at night, I can do that for you as well.

Carolyn was absolutely amazing with Sissy! She took the time to make sure Sissy was well cared for, making sure she was fed, let out for potty breaks, and given plenty of outdoor time to play and explore. I really appreciated how patient and attentive she was, ensuring Sissy had every opportunity to go potty and get the exercise and attention she needed. Carolyn was also very communicative throughout the entire process, which gave me great peace of mind. She was able to accommodate us on short notice, and her flexibility and reliability were truly appreciated. I could tell she genuinely cared about Sissy's well-being and happiness. I would highly recommend Carolyn to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and attentive pet sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of Sissy!

She is perfect! She responded quickly and even tho I was booking last minute she fit me in to her schedule. Our first time I booked an in home visit and a 30 minute walk with Ann, I had seen such a huge difference in my dog queen when I got home! Not only that but I had went outside for break and just so happened to see her and Queen walking across the street. I got to see how nice and soft-spoken she was to queen and how safe and attentive she was towards her.I am extremely satisfied and and will be booking regular weekly visits! She is great with animals and I highly recommend her. I can't express enough how grateful I am and how much of a difference she made for queen.❤️❤️

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to really get to know them and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have experience working with goats, cats, dogs and lizards, chickens and even horses, along with senior pets. I’m patient and consistent when it comes to basic training, potty routines, exercising and helping reinforce good habits. I know how important that is, so I focus on structure, positive reinforcement, and lots of encouragement. For senior pets, I have lots of experience in administering medication, and sticking closely to their routine, or providing extra attention and care. Reliability and communication are very important to me. I make sure you stay updated with messages, photos, and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make your pet feel happy, secure, and cared for every step of the way. I’m currently working part-time and remote, so I have plenty of flexibility to help others take care of their fur baby. You can count on me! I provide a safe, loving environment. I currently have a 4-year-old Bernedoodle who is everything to me. I grew up surrounded by animals and have always had a strong love for them. Over the years, I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors by dropping in to care for their pets, feeding them, spending quality time with them, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I make it a priority to follow each pet’s routine closely, give them plenty of attention, and create a calm, safe environment where they feel at home. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family
