About: Cats have been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love. I've been a volunteer at Midwest Pet Refuge for almost a year, working with cats of every age, temperament, and background. For the past 8 months, I've also been a cat foster, giving both kittens and adults a safe, loving place to land, I've cared for shy cats, spicy cats, and even day-old bottle babies, so I'm very comfortable with high-needs or fragile kitties who require extra patience and attention. I understand cat body language, respect their boundaries, and take the time to earn their trust. Whether your cat wants playtime, cuddles, a calm presence, or someone who knows how to handle special care routines, I'm here to make them feel safe and loved while you're away. Your cat will be treated like family - because that's exactly how I see them.

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was 5 when I got my first dog, and I've been caring for animals ever since! I've cared for many different species, such as dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, cows, fish, and a couple of reptiles! I'm always looking for new animal friends and would love to meet yours!

About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was a child! We used to live in a rural area and there was a little of kittens on an annual basis. I spent so much time with every litter and we kept most of them as our own pets. we currently have our own senior cat that we rescued this past winter, and my soul cat lived to be 21 years old. For fun, my best friend and I used to go to the cat rooms at the shelters to spend time with the cats- something I still do with my daughter today!
About: I have the freedom to go anywhere needed with the ability to drive. I can also take care of the pets special needs such as giving medicine. I enjoy walking and playing. My little dog has a big dog attitude, so when she gets aggressive I know how to handle her, and keep a safe distance not letting anyone get hurt. I am a full time student at BGSU, and living on campus. I can do check ins during the weekdays, and I am able to stay overnight if needed at anytime. On the weekends I should be available at anytime and stay for however long is needed. I have a fenced in backyard, and a small dog that goes through the doggy door. I am always available to open the door to let your pet out at anytime. I walk my dog around the neighborhood 3 or more times around the week at least.

“I haven’t had to leave my cats for more than a weekend in years so I was a bit nervous! But Declan was fabulous - I loved the daily updates and found that I was looking forward to the pictures every day that I was gone! And on a pet level, Declan managed to befriend my most skeptical cat, and even expand the group of people whose lap she will voluntarily sit on to a whopping three people. So, he definitely passed the vibe check! The other cat at one point attempted to go home with him, lol. Declan was super communicative and definitely made it a lot easier to not worry about the cats, will definitely book him again when needed!”


“Sophia was very good with the cats; I could tell by the pictures that she sent. They were friendly to her when they met her. Usually they are more aloof with new people they meet. Sophia took care of all the things we asked of her. I got a really good vibe from her and felt that my babies would be well cared for. I would recommend her, and we would hire her again.”

“Ashlyn did I wonderful job of taking care of my cat! Hired her for drop in visits and she did amazing. Very attentive to instructions and great communication. My kitty loved her and I would definitely recommend her/will be using her in the future if I need to!”

About: I've taken care of other people's pets off and on since I was around 10. I was a Canine Companion at the Indianapolis Humane Society for about two years before I moved to Muncie. At the Humane Society I walked dogs, cleaned their cages, groomed them, assisted in training, and most importantly I loved them. With my parents' dogs I have administered medication and trained a puppy. I'm currently a Ball State student but since classes are now all online I have way more freetime. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays I am free all day. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I am free after my online lecture at 9:30 am. On the weekends I am completely free since my church is currently cancelled. I am currently staying with my sister so since it is not my home, I offer no in home services. My sister's landlord does have a dog and he is very friendly. We frequently go the dog park with him. He is a neutered King Charles Spaniel.
About: I have pet sit for many years. I love meeting new animals. I enjoy pet sitting because as a social worker I am able to come home to an animal and sent time with them. Animals are the way I cope. I have plenty of time to play with animals in the evenings and weekends. My schedule is very open for this and I am excited to have this opportunity I will ensure to keep everything the way I found it or even better. I know animals do best in their own environment so I have no problem being in other peoples homes. I show respect.
“Alyssa is freaking awesome!!! I had just gotten my new pup and was very nervous about returning to work and leaving her alone. Alyssa came and met me, my pup and my cat before our first visit. After just one day, my animals LOVE her. She’s great, flexible and reliable! I am so glad I found her to take care of my babies, so much relief to know they are cared for and loved on when I am gone. Thank you Alyssa!!!!”

She kept us updated with pictures throughout the day and gave us a summary of his day at the end (eating, potty habits, etc) . Our dog loved playing i their big backyard with their dog, Marci.

About: Animals have always been a part of my life since I was very little, I even remember pretending to ‘babysit’ our dog when I was 5 like I was their parent! And now as an adult my own dog Rainbow is as close to a son as I could have, and I love taking care of him. If you book me I will be there *for* your pet, to play with them, cuddle them, make sure they’re safe and fed, and have everything they need (as well as anything I can do for you as their owner to provide peace of mind). I love working with both people and animals, service is a core value of mine, and I would be honored to take care of your beloved dogs or cats. I love dogs and cats just as much as the other so I can work with anyone. :) Taking care of my dog Rainbow is a daily part of my life, walking him every day at our favorite parks for example. I love to make sure he has toys and when I leave for my part time job I always leave on ‘dog TV’ on Youtube for him. I currently work part time as a barista - but Sundays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays I am always free. Any other day of the week just check in with me to see my availability. I am flexible to make sure everyone’s needs are met. 🤍 Pets communicate non-verbally, and I love being able to understand what they’re ‘saying’ by paying attention to body language and behavior. A lot of people tell me that I have a very calming presence/voice and animals seem to feel safe with me too. I never let my dog run without a lead or leash for his safety, and I try to get him nice treats and food made with real meats and good ingredients. I love caretaking and I’m always thinking of what I can do to make my dogs days happy and enjoyable.

Even if you have a fence I go outside to make sure furbabies are safe.

About: I have always love all kinds of animals since I was little. Im hoping to get my some soon when I get my own place. A lot of people always told me that I'm an animal whisper because a lot of animals really trust me more than others. Owners have told me how amazing it is to see their fur babies trust me and let them pet them when they normally don't let anyone pet them. I am currently looking for a part time job right now. As I am a Caregiver working through the weekdays. I am sure we can talk more about the days and times that work for both of us! I can’t wait to meet your amazing animal! I have a fenced yard, and two cats that will make sure your animals have companionship! In this house we spoil our animals and your animals equally with lots of treats, cuddles, and playtime!

“John took excellent care of Ginger for a few days over the Thanksgiving holiday. She does have a bit of separation anxiety but he made sure she got plenty of attention. Sent us pictures and reports throughout her visit.”


“Steve was amazing taking care of my German Shepherd puppy. It seemed like they had a great time and even trained commands. Would leave my dog with him again any time!”

“Sarah was a great fit for Duke. I had to leave town for a funeral so short notice and she was very accommodating. She kept me updated with how Duke was doing through my trip. I would recommend her for everyone to use.”

“Indy and Lex loved staying with Gerard! They were very comfortable with him and settled into their routine without issues. He was reliable, easy to communicate with, and treated them like his own! Highly recommend!”

“Haylie was so wonderful to work with! She sent me updates and pictures throughout my trip and allowed me to extend Seeley's stay with her family on short notice when we had some unexpected issues. This was his second time staying with Haylie, and I am sure it won't be his last!”


“Alexis was just wonderful! Great communication and updates, thoughtful little touches that shows how much she loves caring for fur babies. She did exceptionally great with our over-eager Pit mix!”

About: I love to make others feel more comfortable about leaving their beloved dog in capable hands while they are away! I work from home so the dogs are not left alone. I love dogs but am not ready to have two in my home full time. Pet sitting helps to keep my dog socialized. I am able to follow a strict routine, give medications and have very flexible drop off and pick up times. My dog is very friendly and I have a fenced in yard for plenty of playtime. I work from home so am here to care for them all day.
“Morgan was great! Buddy loved the whole family from the start. He had so much fun playing with the kids and Morgan. She even gave him a bath so he smells nice. She is a very sweet person who loves animals and I will definitely be using her again!”

“Are experience was great ! my wife had some concerns but Aurora was very helpful with her concerns. Griz fit in well and seemed to be ok with the sleep over. We will use her services again.”

“Samantha and James are amazing people aside from caring for George :) They went above and beyond caring of our pup while we were out of town. Samantha was proactive with communication and pics - putting our minds at ease that George was doing well and thriving. We are so incredibly grateful they folded George into their loving home at the last minute with confidence and joy. We would absolutely recommend Samantha and James to any one!”

About: I’ve had a personal dog since I came into this world. I was born with a dog as my bestfriend/ sibling. I’ve had 3 males ( 2 pits and 1 cane corso) as well as a female (pit). I have also dog sat on plenty occasions for Rottweilers, a German Shepard, a chihuahua, small pups etc. I’m currently a college student with enough free time to look for a gig so I’m very free during the beginning of the week and at certain times on the ends of the week I will keep your fluffy friend fed and exercised ( believe me I need it) and although I don’t have a fenced in backyard they will be able to be in my house as well as roam in my open garage if you’re comfortable with that. If specifically okay I will also take them to the dog part and have my own personal treat for them. Love and affection is an always.
“I cant recommend a more professional dog sitter than Samantha. She was willing to watch my dog short notice and took amazing care of her. Even with freezing temps she kept my dog engaged with indoor activities. Her home is extremely clean and has a great backyard for dogs to get exercise. Consistently kept me informed of how my dog was doing. She truly is top notch!”

“OMG! I rarely leave my service dog and rescue with anyone overnight. When I went to pick them up to go home, they did not want to leave, and even made a couple friends! Kylie is for sure my new pet sitter! This was by far one of the best pet sitters I've had in a while. She has a permanent customer now!”
