“I could not have asked for a better sitter. My baby girl has been struggling lately. Not only did Katelin take amazing care of her, she stayed in touch with me and gave periodic updates. She sent pics and videos to ease my mind. Her whole family loved my baby like their own. She came home the happiest puppy ever. 10 out of 10 - Highly recommend. We will definitely be booking more stays!”
“This was the first time leaving our pups in 2 years outside our home. Kelsie was very communicative about one of our dogs not wanting to eat. The second stay a week later, the dogs ran to the door and have been doing great. We have gotten lord of photos and she has been very communicative.”
“Cinthia did an amazing job caring for my cats! she immediately communicated with me about how they were adjusting, sent photos, and was very friendly and easygoing when I reached out on short notice. My cats loved her and her kids!”
“Aricela was an awesome host. Both our cat and dog stayed with her for more than two weeks and returned home in great condition. Aricela sent daily pictures of each animal, and both appeared to be happy and enjoying themselves. Our family is greatly appreciative of the care Aricela provided to our animals while we were out of town.”
“Fantastic! She took great in-home care of our high energy pups who usually struggle with separation anxiety - they did not! They were happy and well adjusted when we returned. She even replaced their treats - above and beyond. Thank you!”
“Taylor took great care of our 7 year old Aussie. He got comfort and exercise. Taylor is a true dog lover. Unfortunately she is an hour away from us BUT worth it and close to the Indiana lake that we visit.”
“Abigail was loving and attentive to my Hercules. She sent pictures and updates at least once each day. She is very easy to talk to and made sure Hercules ate on time and received plenty of exercise. I appreciate Abigail's flexibility and responsiveness. I will definitely be hiring her again and I know Hercules is looking forward to his next stay!”
“Brody was well cared for and was treated with love and kindness. We received pictures of Brody "taking over" their own dogs big boy bed instead of his own smaller version, but it it didn't look like he cared very much! Pretty sure Brody was in charge as usual. I truly appreciate having someone who cares for our Brody's needs while we are away- he has such separation anxiety now that he is older! Thank you again Ashley for your kindness- I would recommend her for your pup's needs.”
“Edna was AMAZING! I have 2 senior doxies and 1 has very bad eye sight. She took her time with them especially my doxie with the bad eye sight who moves slow. I recommend her to anyone and will rebook with her again. She was also nice to provide pictures and updates while they were staying with her. That was nice.”
“I reached out to Raegan with a last minute request, and after a super prompt reply, and her asking all the right questions, we worked out a two-night stay for my dog at her place. She was easy to reach, kept me up to date on how things were going and sent pictures of my dog getting along splendidly with hers. She was flexible with our pick up time (because traffic is always a crapshoot) and Poppy looked happy when we got her. We will definitely keep Raegan on our list of great sitters!”

However, the yard is not fenced. I have 3 litter boxes in my home that are scooped daily as well as provide privacy. I have 3 cats who are all friendly with each other and love to play. Their ages are 4 years, and 2 of them are 7 months. All my pets are neutered and spayed. I also have a rabbit who loves to play with the cats as well. However, if you are uncomfortable with this idea he is also always willing to chill in his cage.

“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!”

“Andrea was spectacular and took such good care of my kitties! She was communicative, kind, thorough and went out of her way to provide the best care she could. I came home to healthy, happy cats who got their meds, were well fed and watered and had clean litter! She even brought our mail in and watered plants so they wouldn't die - along with a detailed daily checklist of everything she completed. We will absolutely try to rebook with Andrea when we need a sitter again and will recommend her to others in the area!”
“Amara is so sweet and caring towards the pets! She even spent extra time with our pets, fully without us asking! She even tidied up our space a bit and left the cats a goodbye present. She’s absolutely wonderful and a good choice for all your pet needs!”
“Natalie did phenomenal! I had no worries being out of town because I knew my fur babies were well taken care of. Definitely going to rebook with her the next time I have to go out of town 😊”
“Quincy was fantastic. My senior cat has been having health issues and I was very worried about leaving her. Quincy was very knowledgeable though, and I felt sure I was leaving my cat in good hands. Throughout my trip I received photos, videos, and detailed updates. Quincy even left a written summary of the stay for when I got home. I couldn't have asked for more.”

“I booked a 15 day drop in for my three pets. He was great with all of them and even cared for the living room when my pets made a mess while I am gone. I would definitely recommend booking him for your pet sitting needs. He cared for the pets perfectly even when there was slow communication due to time difference being on a trip overseas.

“Kelsi and her family took really good care of my Axel. We took time to make sure her and her dog were comfortable with my dog. From the pictures I received, Axel made himself at home rather quickly. I really appreciate that! I would recommend Kelsi’s services and I plan to use her again 😊.”
About: Hello! I recently moved to Warsaw, Indiana all the way from Arizona and I’m excited to meet new furr-babies. I’ve grown up surrounded by animals, and I couldn’t imagine my life any other way. I’ve also worked at Petsmart as a dog bather and I’m very experienced in reading a dogs body language. I am a stay-at-home wife, I have a dog named Oakley and two cats. Oakley, a 80-pound golden retriever, is very friendly and has never had a problem with any other dogs. Oakley loves having a good play buddy. I also have plenty of toys for dogs to play with. My cats, on the other hand, prefer to stay to themselves. I have the free time and all the love to be home with your babies. I’m a stay-at-home wife who loves spending time at home and I enjoy going taking my dog out for a walk or playing with whatever toy my brings me. I ensure that every animal is comfortable and feels safe, regardless of whether it prefers solitude or running around. Oakley is incredibly energetic and loves to greet everyone who will let him.

“Kayla was excellent and extremely flexible at coming an extra visit at late notice during the holidays. She took great care of our older English Bulldog and cat and we felt very comfortable and at ease while we were traveling for the holidays as she was great at sending us updates and some nice photos. Very responsive and followed all the nuanced needs of our aging bulldog. Highly recommend Kayla, would love to use again!”
About: I love all dogs and cats!!! I’m also a volunteer foster for Fulton County Animal Center. I have volunteered for over 6 years. Animals just bring so much happiness to your life. I’m a mom of 5 and 1 fur baby. I work part time so this is a great opportunity to make extra money while doing what I already love to do. I will make sure that the fur babes are supervised at all times just like I would with any of our own or foster babies.

“Janet was great. She came out the day before for a meet and greet so that the dog would be familiar with her, which I really appreciated. Everything worked out as planned. I receive notification when she arrived, she sent pictures and received a notice when she was finished. I've already made plans to use her again. I'm lucky to have found somebody who genuinely enjoys pets as much as she does.”
About: I’m a multiple pet owner, with a love of animals and some extra time to take care of yours! I’m great with dogs, especially the big mean scary ones. They can tell right away that I just don’t get intimidated, so we always get along. I love cats, too! My goal is to always get to tummy rubs! And parrots love me for some reason, lol. Since I was little, I’ve had dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, hamsters, rats, raccoons, fish, turtles, lizards, snakes, frogs, and maybe something I forgot…☺️ I work full time, but the youngest just graduated and I have to find a hobby (and maybe start paying for all that stuff you need when the kids are still at home, lol). I currently help my wife Caitlin on Rover when she’s booked full, or whenever she gets a particularly challenging animal, and I really enjoy it. I follow all instructions, knowing that routine and comfort are essential to our little ones.
