“Ash and her Husband, Mike, and their two beautiful children were a great match for our dog for the week we had to find boarding. They communicated very well. They were very sweet and truly loved our dog. It is always reassuring when the hosts love our dog just as much as we do! If I could give 10 stars I would. We are very grateful for them and will surely use their services again.”
“Rachel and Seth were great with Mellie. Their schedules are super accommodating and Mellie loved their pool, sunny backyard, and front yard windows. She would love to go back any time!”
“Celestial was amazing with my pup! She did such a great job and kept me updated with tons of photos while I was away. I could tell he was happy and well cared for the whole time. She really went above and beyond, and I’ll definitely book with her again!”
“Marietta did a wonderful job with my Lucky! She is caring, thoughtful and kind ; Erin Rose is the sweetest dog I have ever seen. Thank you Erin Rose for playing with Lucky and sharing your toys. Everything about Lucky’s stay was great. Pictures sent by Marietta everyday are so so sweet! Lucky would love to stay with Marietta and Erin Rose again. Thanks again and look forward to visiting you again.”
“Karen was wonderful with our pups. She is very kind and adaptable. Her home is perfect for dogs, including the beautiful large fenced-in yard with lots of grass (and squirrels and birds for the pups to chase). Would highly recommend!”
“Rosie was able to take Tipper last minute for a work trip so I could fly. She is an amazing caregiver for my pup helping her have a comfortable stay when I’m gone for work trips :)”
“Mary was able to watch our dog for a long weekend, very last minute. She is super communicative and sends updates frequently. She took our dog on walks and we know our dog was well taken care of. Mary is great!”
“Claudia was great! Let us meet her before Tito’s stay, took good notes and picture updates for us throughout his stay. Claudia is obviously a pet lover and cared for Tito!”
“Richard took amazing care of our pup, Porter, while we were gone for a week. Richard communicated promptly and would always send pictures and videos of Porter. His dog, Bruce, was super sweet and got along great with our dog which also provided great activity and engagement during the day. Highly recommend hiring Richard to watch your furry family member, as we felt that our boy was in great hands the entire time.”
“Sam was great watching our border collie puppy, Kya. Sam was accommodating when our airline changed our flight as well. Kya came home happy and healthy. Sam and her family, including their dog, all seemed easy going which helped with our dog. I’d definitely recommend Sam for boarding your dog.”
“We received peace of mind by daily checkins with pictures or videos of our little pup. Our Daisy girl was in very good capable loving hands with Gabriel. We highly recommend him and will plan on booking him again if we need it.”
“We left our Dalmatian, Gracie, with Precious and Thomas for a full week while we were on a family vacation to North Carolina, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, they were wonderful. Gracie was clearly well cared for—she was happy, healthy, well fed, and in great spirits when we picked her up. It gave us real peace of mind to know she was in such capable and loving hands while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Precious and Thomas to anyone looking for responsible and caring pet sitters. They treated Gracie like family, and we are so grateful!”
“Can't recommend enough! My dog is a senior dog that needs some special medication and attention and Bowen has been so kind and sweet towards him and tend to his needs. ❤️”
“Amy and her sweet family took such wonderful care of our golden retriever! He was so happy playing there, got so much extra attention and love, big backyard for running. Thank you so much, Amy!”
“I absolutely loved Aricel. She was extremely sweet and accommodating to my older pup. She was very loving and Bootz took to her well. He even got to sleep in the bed with her which he seemed to love. She sent pictures and updates daily which I greatly appreciated. I was so pleased I've already booked her for another stay.”

“Thank so much for taking care of my babies while I was gone. Knowing they were in good hands allowed me to enjoy my out of town trip much better. So attentive and kind to my babies. Thanks again!”
“Always does such a great job, kitties and apartment in better shape than when I left. Always goes above and beyond and everything is much appreciated! Highly recommend; she’s the best cat sitter I’ve had!”
“Erin is our go to sitter for our three cats. All of them love her, even our grumpy one. She is detail oriented, always contacts me beforehand to make sure she has all of the information and sends great updates. Thank you, Erin!”
“Ellen watched our cat, Jack, during the Christmas week and was so great with him. We are so relieved that Ellen made herself available on those days and had experience with cats. She was great and we will book her again next time!”
“Gabrielle helped us out with a last minute out of town request to check in twice a day for our two cats. We received reports at each visit and our girls seemed to start to warm up to their new sitter by their last visit. Good communication and very prompt response. Would recommend and rebook with Gabrielle in the future.”
About: While I'm still gaining experience with cats in a home setting, I have cared for them at a daycare/boarding facility. I've come to understand that cats like dogs have different needs, energies, and personalities. Howver, they require more patience, respect for their space, and an easy and slow approach to gaining their trust. I'm happy to accommodate to your cats needs. Whether they are a social kitty who wants cuddles or a shy one that needs space, I can do both. Look forward to making new feline friends!
“Maja was amazing! She took such good care of my girl giving her all the attention and pets. Super thorough notes at each check in and the best pics :) 10/10 recommend her!!”
“Taylor was very nice and took great care of my two cats! She sent cute photos and kept me posted on my kitties while I was on vacation. I would be happy to work with her again!”
“Eileen did a great job taking care of my kitties! One of my cats threw up JUST before we left for the weekend, and she did a great job taking care of him and providing updates on his health while we were gone.”

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and animals who require medication or extra patience. I prioritize routine, safety, and clear communication with pet parents. Whether it’s feeding schedules, daily walks, litter box care, or administering medications, I make sure each pet feels secure and cared for in a calm, loving environment. I also provide consistent updates so you always know your pet is safe and happy. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate a wide range of pet care needs. I’m available most days and can adjust my routine to fit your pet’s feeding, walking, and medication schedule. Whether your pet needs early morning care, midday check-ins, or evening attention, I can make time to ensure they stay on their normal routine. I prioritize consistency and will work around your pet’s day-to-day habits so they feel comfortable and stress-free. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment with close supervision at all times. I follow each pet’s routine carefully, including feeding schedules, medication needs, and exercise requirements. I keep doors secured, remove any hazards, and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to ensure their pet feels comfortable and secure. I provide regular updates so you always feel confident your pet is in safe, caring hands.
“I would highly recommend Marietta! She is watching my 9 week old puppy and she’s is taking amazing care of him. I feel 100 percent comfortable leaving him In her care. She sends me pictures and makes sure he is being active during the day”
“Absolutely phenomenal. Super professional, knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. The babies adore her and her doggos and LOVE daycare at Libby’s! Thanks so much!”
“Dayana was an amazing dog sitter! Her communication was excellent, and she made sure to send cute pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. She provided a safe and comfortable environment, and my puppy came home happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I would definitely recommend Dayana to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”
“Sharon was fantastic! Appears my dogs never even missed us! Ideal arrangement for us to have her watch them while we visited with a friend and her husband when passing through Indianapolis on our way to Wisconsin from our home outside Nashville, TN. Thank you Sharon! I highly recommend others use Sharon if wanting a loving home your pets can stay at when not able to accompany you. I have one dog around 60 lbs and other around 20 lbs. both rotten so loving care is what I want when needing an alternate care arrangement. Sharon met our needs! Now back on the highway.”
“We have been very lucky to find Mary only minutes away from our home. We have dropped our puppy, Mario, at Mary’s twice now and both times, he came home exhausted and slept very well. Mary sent pics during the day to keep us updated and is very quick to respond to texts.”
“Tolu was a great person to work with. We used him on 3 different days for daycare services as we toured the city. He was very flexible with drop off and pickup times as they changed each day. Zeke loved his time with Tolu!!”
“Honestly Tyler was GREAT. He got my girl in LAST minute and was very kind and did great with her. I would definitely recommend. My girl was a little nervous and he handled it nicely.”
“Maureen was super flexible and eager to get to know our dog. My pup was good and tired from exploring her cute home & gorgeous backyard while running around with her dog Jordan. I will be back.”
About: I have owned dogs and cats my entire life! I volunteered for the Indianapolis Humane Society for 2 years where I gained experience walking dogs of all energy levels and sizes. I also have experience dog walking for my friends and family. I love all dogs and cats and I am excited to spend time with yours! I am currently home from college for the summer and I am not working, so I have a lot of time to care for your pets! I am available any day of the week or the weekend. My house has a fenced in yard and I do not currently own any dogs and cats, so your pet is more than welcome to stay at my house for the day. I am aware of near by emergency pet care facilities in case of emergency. I am very conscious of how I hold the leash when walking and I ensure that all doors and windows stay shut.
About: I've moved! If you've booked with me before, please double check my new address! I've had a lifelong fascination with animals and zoology that led me to learning as much as I could about animals. I've been particularly fond of canines, leading me to become a certified dog behaviorist in 2020. I've had 2 dogs of my own, both mid sized mixed breeds, and helped take care of family and friends pets, dogs as small as chihuahuas and large as rotties. I'm self employed and work from home. I'm very flexible and can adjust to specific feeding or medicine times, and can keep near constant supervision if need be. I feel strongly about pets being treated with kindness and patience. I enjoy cuddling and playing games with them. I'll be happy to adjust to the pets individual needs and owner requests.
About: Dogs have always been part of my life, but raising our mini Goldendoodle, Benny, since he was 9 weeks old has given me hands on experience with puppy training, crate training, potty training, bell training, socialization, routines, and helping dogs feel secure in a home environment. I especially enjoy working with puppies and younger dogs who benefit from consistency, structure, play, and interaction throughout the day. We also love slower paced and older dogs, though I always want to be upfront that Benny is still young and playful. I value communication, hospitality, and making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and cared for while you are away. My goal is for your dog to feel like they are staying with extended family, not just being watched. I work for myself, so I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home throughout the week. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches of time and will be part of our normal daily rhythm, including walks, outdoor time, play, cuddles, and relaxing at home. We are a calm, loving family with two kids who genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. Benny loves having dog friends around, and we enjoy creating a home environment that feels relaxed, welcoming, and engaging for dogs who enjoy companionship, affection, and structure. We have a large fenced backyard with plenty of space for dogs to run, play, explore, and potty comfortably. Inside the home, we have flexible spaces depending on your dog’s needs, including a tiled basement level for play and movement and a kitchen area that can be separated from the rest of the home for puppies or dogs still working on potty training. We also have Benny, our mini Goldendoodle, who loves other dogs and helps provide companionship and socialization throughout the day. If your dog is crate trained or needs structure overnight or while we briefly step away, we can absolutely accommodate that. We have multiple options available, including crate setups in our large bedroom for added comfort and supervision. Safety, supervision, and helping your dog feel comfortable in our home are always a priority.
“We’ve booked regularly with Gabe, and Darfee always has such a great time! Gabe sends photos of what Darfee’s been up to all day which is always fun to review. They also regularly go on walks. It’s obvious that Darfee is very comfortable with Gabe, as he always trots in with no hesitation at drop off. Highly recommend Gabe!”
About: I worked in marine mammal care and training at The Indianapolis Zoo for 10 years, and I hold a bachelor’s degree in behavioral neuroscience from Purdue University. My partner and I both work from home and we have two dogs of our own, so pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I have 2 friendly, crate trained dogs who get walks 2-3 times/day. We also recently built a mini dog park in our back yard for dogs who prefer to be off leash, but also need to be supervised while outside.

“Deontae was great! I have an anxious and high energy herding dog who can be a handle full, but didnt phase Deontae at all. He also had great communication. I definitely plan on using him again.”
“Raven is very nice, quiet and unobtrusive. She has been flexible figuring where to walk my dogs with all the snow on the ground. I really look forward to the days she comes to walk the dogs!”
“Sarah is a wonderful Human - so patient ! Selfishly I hope the secret doesn't spread too wide and far about how wonderful she is - since that will limit her availability for us. Thank you Sarah for all your efforts”
“Amanda is a great dog walker. She walked Yaris twice in one day for over an hour despite cold, snow and ice. Very happy with her approach and communication. Yaris loves her too!”
“Taylor was able to accommodate us last minute to walk our boy on a holiday weekend! We will definitely use her again. Thanks for taking good care of our boy on his walk Taylor!”
“Ellen did wonderfully taking Eleanor for her afternoon walks - To the point that Eleanor started rolling over for belly rubs from her, a true sign of her affection!”
“Angela was amazing. She was patient and kind with our puppy while getting to know our Bailey at meet and greet. She was on time and spent time making sure Bailey was cared for and loved.”
“We had the great service of Gianna for the second time for dog walking services. She was comforting to us knowing that she would take care of our dog’s exercise needs while we were out of town again. She was always prompt and kept tabs on the weather. We hope to utilize Gianna’s services again in the future!”
About: I have owned a dog of my own for 8 years, starting at 4 months old. This has given me experience in puppy training and potty training. I can teach sit, stay, and lay down! I also have years of experience volunteering at the animal shelter, walking dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I have very open availability throughout the week, from morning to evening, as well as open weekends for any of your pet care needs including drop-ins, walks, or house sitting! I only provide care at the clients house. I can leash if there is not a fenced in yard, crate if needed, and any other specific requests.
About: Many of my friends and family refer to me as an animal whisperer. I have a genuine love for animals and experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I’ve helped care for dogs and cats by providing feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, so I follow all care instructions closely—whether that includes specific feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, or just extra cuddles. I’m also respectful of clients’ homes and make sure everything is kept clean and secure. I’m looking to make a career out of animal care. I’m currently free at whatever times you may need. All days of the week, I am available! When I care for your pets in your home, my top priorities are trust, safety, and keeping your pet comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires confidence, and I take that responsibility seriously. I follow your pets routine as closely as possible—whether that includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or medication—so they feel secure and stress-free while you’re away. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and any changes to make sure your pet stays happy and healthy. Your home will always be treated with respect and care. I keep things clean, organized, and secure, and I make sure your dog’s space remains calm and safe. I’m mindful of doors, gates, and surroundings to prevent any accidents or escapes. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing and can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable in their own home.
“Christy is a reliable and competent caretaker, and also a very compassionate, adaptable person. Not everything went according to plan with my dog Marcel because he was quite freaked out by my absence. Thankfully I had someone who rolled with the punches and did the best thing I could ask for: be a calm and consistent presence for my little friend. I'm very grateful for Christy's service and cannot recommend it highly enough.”
“I am so happy that I was introduced to Karissa through my regular Rover dog walker… she is amazing!!! It was instantly clear in our meet and greet that she loves fur babies of all kinds and would take great care of mine while I’m away. I am so appreciative of her extra effort and willingness to drive a very long distance (twice a day!) so my dog can enjoy his long walks/fetch sessions- most people would never do that. She is punctual, reliable, thorough, quick to answer messages, and very caring- my highest recommendation 💖.”
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and I love them both! My family always adopted or took in stray animals so I have experience with all sizes, breeds and ages. From a young age I loved animals of all kinds and am always the chosen person to watch my friends’ and family’s pets. In college at IU Bloomington I even took my cat with me because I couldn’t bare to be away from her. Whether your pet is playful, shy, cuddly, or independent, I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I love to send pictures and videos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands! I work in dementia research at IU Health. My work is hybrid, but I am home most days, and the days I do have to go into clinic I am only away for about an hour or so, so I have a lot of time to spend with your pet(s)! If you have questions please feel free to ask! I currently live in apartment near so I would only be able to offer taking care of pets in your home. I have always taken care of other’s pets this way so this is completely normal to me!

“We left our Dalmatian, Gracie, with Precious and Thomas for a full week while we were on a family vacation to North Carolina, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, they were wonderful. Gracie was clearly well cared for—she was happy, healthy, well fed, and in great spirits when we picked her up. It gave us real peace of mind to know she was in such capable and loving hands while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Precious and Thomas to anyone looking for responsible and caring pet sitters. They treated Gracie like family, and we are so grateful!”

“Kara was amazing with Asher! He has diabetes and requires insulin injections and after showing her how to do it she seemed very comfortable with it which made me feel very comfortable leaving Asher in her care. She sent twice daily updates with pictures as I requested and I will never have to look for a different sitter again as long as Kara is available to watch Asher, he had a great time! He also seemed comfortable with Baxter, who was very sweet and respected Asher’s boundaries! I would highly recommend Kara for any pet sitting needs!”
“Melissa was great! She gave frequent updates on our dogs while boarding with her. She is very fast to respond to questions. Would definitely book her again for our next trip!”
“Fiona took very good care of my dog for six days at her home. She has a nice big fenced yard that I’m sure he enjoyed, since his favorite activity is sniffing the yard. The stay went smoothly with no problems. Overall, I would recommend her to anyone else.”
“Well, my puppy was very happy when we picked her up and exhausted, which is what I wanted. It was hard for me not being able to physically see where the dogs hang out but they have so many good reviews, and they sent me pictures which was awesome. And again my pup was very happy when I picked her up we’re gonna give it another try thanks again.”
“Taco’s trip started off on the wrong paw when he got out through her garage, but shortly after the neighborhood police tackled him and brought him back safely! He started to get adjusted nicely to his quarantine area ?. I appreciate Jill and her daughter so much for watching over my baby. The only thing is that he lost his favorite toy mouse so I would advise people to not bring any toys they care about (just a heads up). Not mad at all and will be rebooking soon with Jill if I can! Thanks again!”
“Miss Mary is super awesome. We felt bad for leaving our baby girl behind but she made it all better. My girl loves her and so do we. We both feel so comfortable at her place. The best part is knowing my girl is in good hands and being love. Highly recommend miss Mary to anyone who needs a someone loves animals.”
“Zula had so much fun staying at Leta’s home and playing with her fur family. I received pictures and video every day with updates. It was as if Leta had known Zula for years. She was accurate in her interpretation of Zula’s fear of storms and watched over her carefully. Leta noticed Zulas love for water so she set up a pool in the yard for Zula to enjoy. I want to give a 5+ rating for the personal loving care the family gave our pup.”
“Wow! My 17 yo old shihtzu just found a new friend w Tara and her dog Lily. I never worried and there was always pics and communication. I'm so happy and would 100% recommend!”
