“Hope is great about leaving updates of the pets and sending pics! She's a wonderful sitter!”

About: As a lifelong dog owner, I provide compassionate care tailored to each pet’s needs. I'm comfortable bathing, walking, handling multiple dogs, and ensuring a safe play environment. I also have experience with puppy training and senior care, ensuring pets of all ages feel loved and secure. I work from home, which allows me to provide flexible and attentive care for your pets throughout the day. Your pets will always have my full attention! I prioritize safety and comfort by creating a secure, pet-friendly environment in my home and ensuring close supervision during all activities. In clients' homes, I follow their care routines closely and maintain clear communication for peace of mind. From safe play areas to regular walks, your pet’s well-being is always my top priority. I have a super friendly Corgi to keep your puppy company if needed or we can separate if need be and your pup will get to be king/queen for the day.

“Fantastic sitter, Allison took great care of my corgi. She had plenty of fun outside and even bathed my dog. 10/10 would rebook with Allison.”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the level of care, structure, and attention I bring to every animal I look after. I take a lot of pride in providing excellent care for my own pets, and I treat every animal in my care with that same level of love and responsibility. I’ve had dogs of my own for over 4 years, and even before that, I was trusted to care for multiple dogs belonging to friends and family. Through that experience, I’ve learned how important consistency, safety, and intentional care are for keeping pets happy and stress-free. I provide a structured, safe environment while still making sure each pet feels comfortable, loved, and understood. I also have experience caring for cats, so I’m comfortable working with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority, and I’m committed to making sure they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is a huge part of my daily life. My routine truly revolves around my animals. I already structure my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure my pets are happy, healthy, and well cared for. Because of that, adding pet care for others fits very naturally into my weekly routine. I have plenty of time, flexibility, and attention to give, so I’m able to be very present and intentional with every pet I care for. Whether it’s sticking to a specific schedule, providing exercise, or just giving them extra love and attention, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I live in a house with two dogs of my own and about 2 cleared acres, giving plenty of space for safe, supervised outdoor time. While my property isn’t fenced, I’m very mindful about safety and always use leashes, harnesses, or close supervision. My neighborhood is also great for walks, and I have a park nearby that I love taking dogs to for extra exercise and enrichment. I’m fully equipped with supplies like leashes, harnesses, crates, and bowls, so I can easily meet each pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize respect, consistency, and attention to detail. I follow all instructions closely to maintain your pet’s normal routine and comfort. I’m very mindful of your space and always aim to leave your home even better than I found it. Most importantly, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

“Wonderful job caring for my cat while out of time - prompt, good communication, and clearly cared about the well-being of the animals in her car. Highly recommend!”

“Wonderful! Simba loved her so much. I wish I could adopt her. Thank you , Emily, for loving my baby when I couldn’t be there. You are such a special young lady. I will be sure and call you again when Simba needs some special loving by a caretaker. ❤️❤️❤️”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs through childhood into adulthood. I have 4 dogs of my own. I have also taken care of neighbor dogs and church members dogs as well. I currently work weekdays from 8am-4pm. I’m free on weekends all day. I can dog sit during weekdays if need but I do still go to work. I have 4 dogs with different personalities and ages that range from 1yrs old to 13 yrs old. I bath them, feed them the right type of food based on needs, and administer medication if need be. I also do some basic dog training.

About: I’ve always had and truly loved cats, so I’m comfortable with everything from playtime and feeding to litter care and respecting their unique personalities. I understand cats need patience, calm energy, and trust, and I take pride in making them feel relaxed and secure in their own space.

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for cats and currently share my home with three of my own. Two are happy indoor companions, while my third is harness-trained and enjoys going on walks and even joining me on outings in a carrier backpack — so I’m very comfortable working with cats who have unique personalities, enrichment needs, or established routines. I understand that cats thrive on consistency and a calm environment. I take time to learn each cat’s individual preferences, whether that means interactive play, quiet companionship, maintaining litter box routines, or simply respecting a more independent personality. I’m experienced with kittens as well as adult and senior cats, and I’m comfortable administering medications when needed. My goal is always to reduce stress while you’re away by keeping your cat’s routine familiar and providing attentive, gentle care tailored specifically to them. I prioritize a calm, low-stress environment and let each cat set the pace for interaction and care.

About: I have taken care of animals on my own for about 10 years now. I’ve always had cats and dogs. I have years of experience caring for family members animals while they were out of town, sick or unavailable. I have two little boys who absolutely love puppies and would love to help me care for your animals!! I am currently a stay at home mom to two boys, so I have all the time to love on and care for your fur babies! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do not mind taking them out to play, or playing with them inside. We live on a farm, so there is plenty of space to walk and play! I can easily crate your dog if they are trained.

About: I grew up with plenty of cats and dogs in and outside the home. At 12, I started a "business" dog walking and learning how to give shots to a diabetic cat. For a few years I also worked with 4Pawed Redemption, a veteran-run non-profit designed to help rehome military family pets. I also successfully trained my own pup to qualify as a service animal to help a friend in need, but care doesn't stop with dogs! I've also helped with ferrets, snakes, tortoises and parakeets before-just please no tarantulas! Hope you find the help you're looking for :) Currently working part-time before going to college in August, but I have plenty of time to work around nearly any schedule within my range, and with most addresses in Batesville I can even visit the local dog park! I always ask up front about any allergies or sensitivities your pet might have, in addition to what training they have gone through and their everyday personality. By knowing how they usually act, I'm better able to help them with any signs of nervousness or anxiety and adjust their care accordingly, so it's not just about food and water with me :)

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 12. I know how to give them medicine, hugs, treats, and plenty of love. I haven’t met a dog that hasn’t loved me. The only tricks I know how to teach is sit and lay down. I am currently looking for a job so my time is pretty flexible until then. but even with a job I will always have time for my furry friends. Whatever instructions you have I will always follow it to my best ability. Whenever your pet is in my care they are going to be treated like royalty👑

“Lisa is perfect ! On time. My two dogs ( Great Pyrenees and golden retriever) love her and respond to her. She knows how to calm my eager, energetic golden down so she can walk and not pull.”

About: I’ve grown up in a pet-loving home with both cats and dogs and understand how important routine, patience, and affection are. I have experience caring for senior dogs and always adjust care to each pet’s unique needs. What sets me apart is the genuine joy I find in making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I currently have lots free time so I would love to make it easy to care for your pets, at the best times for you. When caring for pets in their home, I prioritize safety, consistency, and respect for theirs and their family's space. I carefully follow routines, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a clean, calm environment so pets feel comfortable and stress-free. I treat every home with care and communicate openly, giving you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life and currently share my home with three dogs and three cats of my own. Animals have always been central to my life, and I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. In addition to lifelong pet ownership, I have extensive experience in dog rescue. At one point I was actively caring for and rehabilitating 14 dogs at once, working with animals from a variety of backgrounds, temperaments, and medical needs. That experience taught me patience, strong observation skills, and how to quickly recognize changes in behavior or health. I’m comfortable caring for pets at every life stage — energetic puppies and kittens, adult animals with established routines, and seniors who need extra time and compassion. I also have hands-on experience with special needs pets, including administering medications, maintaining detailed care schedules, and assisting animals with mobility challenges. Most recently, I cared for a senior pit bull with hind-end weakness who required lifting assistance to stand and walk, along with consistent medication management. Providing calm, steady support for pets who need extra help is something I truly enjoy. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine familiar and low-stress while providing dependable care, lots of affection, and clear communication so you always know how things are going at home. I treat every pet as if they were my own and provide regular photo and message updates so you always know your pet is safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I currently work part-time as a work-from-home contractor, which allows me a very flexible schedule and makes it easy to adapt my day around pet care needs. Because I’m home much of the time, I’m able to provide consistent attention, regular check-ins, and reliable care throughout the day. I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for to ensure feeding times, walks, medication schedules, and companionship needs are met without disruption. Whether it’s short visits, overnight stays, or extended care, I’m able to adjust my routine to prioritize your pet’s comfort and consistency. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is maintaining their normal routine and environment as closely as possible to reduce stress. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walk routines, medication needs, and any specific behavioral or medical guidelines. I approach each home with respect and responsibility, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as I found them. I understand the importance of trust when someone is caring for both your pets and your space, and I communicate regularly so you always know how things are going. With experience caring for animals of all ages—including rescues, seniors, and pets with special medical needs—I’m comfortable adapting to whatever level of care is required. My goal is always to provide calm, attentive care so your pets feel safe, understood, and well cared for in your absence.
