Personalized care for your dog or cat - Clear Creek

“Chelsea watched my 14 year old dog for a weekend while I was away. I think he enjoyed it so much I have never seen him act better! Highly recommend if you have an older dog or one that needs a bit more attention!”

Mia L.

“Rocky and Mia had a great time. Nora's home is clean and comfortable. Her yard is perfect for them to run around and get some exercise. You can really tell she loves working with pets. Careful and attentive. Nora sent us several pictures and updates each day. We will definitely us Nora again in the future. Thanks Nora.”

Jaime G.

“Mary Jane is the best! My 6 year old dog couldn’t be happier going to her wonderful home. I love the consistent updates Mary Jane provides that usually includes photos. I would highly recommend booking with her.”

Brooke H.

“We had a great experience with Mariah! She took amazing care of Goose and kept us updated with thoughtful, detailed messages the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she really paid attention to his routine, behavior, and little quirks. Goose got plenty of exercise, attention, and care, and we came home to a happy (and tired!) pup. We would absolutely trust her to watch Goose again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

Jesse W.

“Madison was wonderful and flexible. First, we were able to modify our dates before the trip. Second. We ran into traffic on our way home and Madison was able to watch our dog for extra tune until we got home. We got picture updates and our dog was happy.”

Sarah '.

“I'm so glad we found Celsei! We have an older beagle who lives a quiet life. We were worried that she couldn't handle where we usually board her because she has a bad hip and doesn't hear as well as she used to. Celsei was great with her. We loved getting pictures and videos of what Cookie (our dog) was up to while we were gone. Celsei has her own dogs, and everyone looked like they were having a great time together. We will definitely book with Celsei again the next time we have to leave Cookie behind. Thanks, Celsei!”

Patti W.

“Ziggy can be very anxious around new people so I'm always nervous leaving him but Kelly was great with him and with building his trust! I also loved all the photos and updates. He came back happy and tired from playing with all the dogs”

Selena S.

“Lindsie provided excellent care and attention for my little boy Otto. She was very good about sending me photos and reassuring me he was doing just fine with her. Otto is a 9 year old Miniature Schnauzer and used to just the two of us being together but he did very well with Lindsie. I highly recommend considering Lindsie as a sitter.”

Jennifer A.

“Trista does such a great job with our pups. She sends pictures and updates daily. Our girls love going to her and we del comfortable leaving them with her.”

About: Hello! My name is Savannah and I am a postdoctoral researcher in the biology department at IU. I have experience caring for all kinds of animals (dogs, cats, reptiles, fish and more). I have experience with small and large dogs, hyperactive/nervous dogs, as well as senior dogs so you can be assured that I know how to handle just about any dog personality. I am very responsible, considerate and dedicated to making sure your pets are happy and healthy. I consider it an honor to be welcomed into your pet’s life and take my job very seriously. Please feel welcome to ask me any and all questions you might have. Thank you so much for considering me! I cannot wait to hear from you and your pet! I have fairly flexible working hours as I largely can make my own schedule. I am available during the week and weekends as well as holidays. I have a fenced in yard if you would like your pet to stay with me, but I am also happy to take them for walks in addition to letting them play in the backyard. I have three dogs of my own that are all very friendly and I have ways to separate dogs from each other if need be so they don’t all have to interact at the same time.

“Stephanie was so sweet and attentive to our dog, Augie! I could tell she really paid attention to his needs and got to know him. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”

Layne H.

“Lucy definitely made my dog feel comfortable. I appreciated the communication since I received a few pictures a day of my dog. Lucy did a great job and made sure to give my dog her medicine. Thank you!”

Emily W.

About: Hi! I’m Jenna, a lifelong Bloomingtonian and best friend to every dog I’ve ever met! I am a stay-at-home mom to a preschooler and I also help run a national non-profit rescue for French Bulldogs. I have deeply loved several bulldogs in my lifetime, and as such am very adept to handling brachycephalic breeds and their particular needs. (Though it should be noted I tend to regular-nosed breeds with the same loving care!) As a former medical assistant, I am very comfortable caring for animals with moderate medical needs, those with disabilities, those requiring medication administration, etc. I have cared for hospice dogs, dietary restrictions, Mega-esophagus, Colitis, deafness and total blindness. You could say that special needs are my specialty. I have over 20 years of experience helping folks take care of their fur babies, from Pugs to Cane Corsos and lots in between. Dogs have always been my best friends and luckily, lots of humans pick up on that when they meet me. Most of my experience has been private house sitting and in-home pet care for coworkers for periods of a few hours up to a few weeks. I am brand new to Rover, but not new to taking care of animals. I currently work for a dog rescue remotely and am otherwise a stay-at-home-mom to a preschooler. I also provide daily care for one resident special needs rescue French Bulldog. I care for pets in the way that is safest for them, regardless of where that is. In my home, dogs are under my constant care. They will be taken outside on a leash as I do not have a fenced yard.

“Tawny was super awesome. I felt 100% about leaving Nisa with her. I always got a sweet picture and update at the end of the day and knew Nisa was happy at Tawny’s doggie paradise.”

Caroline S.

“Tiffany was kind, communicative, and took great care of my dog!”

Brooke H.

About: Hi! I’m Alana 😊 I provide reliable, attentive care so your pet can stay comfortable while you’re away. I started volunteering at a humane society in middle school and later gained hands-on experience shadowing veterinary technicians at IndyVet. This helped me learn how to read animal body language, handle different temperaments, and provide safe, attentive care. Growing up, my family had golden retrievers, pit bulls, cats, bunnies, and hamsters, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of pets and personalities. I now have three miniature dachshunds of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ll treat your furry friend with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own! I work full time throughout the week. I am typically available during the evenings on Monday - Thursday, and then all day on Friday - Saturday! Because I have three dogs of my own, I prefer to have your dogs come to my home for overnight sitting. I understand how important our furry friends are and how difficult it can be to be away from them. That’s why I like to learn as much as possible about each pet ahead of time. Knowing their routines, preferences, and personality helps me create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while you’re away.

“Kelsie was very nice and updated me with photos and updates to make sure my puppy was doing great I would highly recommend and appreciate the last minute notice that I had to board my dog.”

Jesse W.

“We are so grateful for the care Matthew and Ellie gave to our dog Marla. This was our first time using Rover and we were very nervous. Matthew and Ellie let us come to their home to see everything and how more the would feel at their place. They are very open and respectful. Marla had a wonderful time they provided daily pictures. They were very responsive to any messages. They were in constant communication with us and were also very flexible when we needed to extend marvelous care. We are very pleased with how everything went and will definitely be using them again in the future. I especially appreciated how they seemed to not just see this as a job, but actually enjoyed having Marla as part of their family.”

Misty J.

“Thank you so much for taking good care of Hei, and for being understanding of his situation! He came home very happy :)”

Xinyi J.

“Zoë is very sweet & knowledgeable when it comes to doggies! She took such great care of my little golden and kept me informed throughout the day each day on how she was doing with messages and photos. I would highly recommend Zoë for any/all of your doggie needs! :)”

Adrienne A.

“Katherine was excellent with the boys. She gave daily updates and photos and was quick to understand the personalities of my cats. Thank you so much!”

Justin B.

“Emily did such a great job with my cat, Juniper!!! I loved her little narratives of the visit and all the pictures. Would happily book her again!”

Katie G.

“She is the best! She took care of everything that I asked for. She seems to enjoy being with my kitty and I was very assured when I was out of town. She took extra care to the health of my pet. I will definitely ask her again for taking care of my kitty. Thanks Samantha.”

Jinkyu K.

“We were on a cruise so we were unreachable. When we got back I got all the pics and updates that Lauren sent. I’m super glad we found someone that took good care of our boys.”

“Brittney took care of my two cats when I was away for 2 nights. She was easy to communicate with, sent us a picture when she visited them. We will hire her again in the future.”

Ceren B.

“Adam was a lifesaver for me during the holiday season! His pictures were great and I always felt assured that my fur baby was being cared for. I also appreciated his check in beforehand to meet my cat and see if they were a good match. Adam’s a cut above the rest! :)”

Callie M.

“Kalee went above and beyond with our two cats while we were away! She was very flexible and really put our cats first to make sure they were getting the attention and care they needed while we were away. We would love for her to watch them again in the future.”

Jase H.

“Caroline was the best. Our cats warmed up to her immediately. She provided the care and attention that they needed.”

Matthew B.

“Haley was FANTASTIC. My cats are very shy around strangers, but she managed to get two of the three to come to her, with one even climbing on her lap. She was very observant, reaching out when potty timing seemed off, which I really appreciated, and went above and beyond—vacuuming around the litter boxes (something we hadn’t requested or discussed). She was honestly the best pet sitter I’ve ever worked with.”

Jillian O.

About: I’ve had cats throughout my life and know that earning a cat’s trust takes patience. I’ll care for your feline friend with the same kindness and respect I’d want someone to show my own.

“Always the best”

Aaron C.

“Sarah went above and beyond caring for our cats when we were gone for two weeks! She was very proactive, and we really appreciated how she stuck to our cats regular feeding schedule and routine. It gave us peace of mind during our trip knowing our cats were being so well taken care of.”

Katherine D.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with both cats and dogs helped foster a lifelong love and appreciation for animals and their unique personalities. Today, our family shares our home with three dogs, so caring for animals is simply a natural part of my daily life. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same kindness, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply having a calm and dependable companion while you’re away, I am committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently have full-time availability and a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day, evenings, weekends, and holidays as needed. Because I have the flexibility to accommodate a variety of schedules, I can offer consistent attention, exercise, companionship, and care for your pets. Whether you need regular visits, or last-minute assistance, I strive to be responsive and available to meet your pet care needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. During drop-in visits, I provide fresh water, meals if needed, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of affection. I can also administer basic medications according to instructions and keep pet parents updated with photos and messages. For dog walks, I prioritize safety, exercise, and enrichment. I tailor each walk to the dog’s age, energy level, and needs, whether that’s a leisurely stroll, extra exercise, or time to sniff and explore. I always use secure leashes and follow any specific instructions provided by the owner. For house sitting services, I provide overnight care in your home and maintain your pet's normal routine. I may leave throughout the day for work, errands, family time, etc but I always ensure your pet receives the care, attention, potty break, meals, exercise, and all the snuggles they need. If your pet requires a more constant-care schedule, please discuss those needs before booking. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pets are in caring and reliable hands. My goal is to ensure your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

Amanda J.

“Clair was great at taking care of our cat! She gave detailed notes and included lots of pictures for each of her drop-in visits. Would absolutely book with her again.”

Michael & Lindsay B.

About: As a primarily dog-focused sitter, my experience with cats is somewhat limited to homes where there were dogs and cats in the same household. Of course I am able to do basic litter cleaning and feeding. If your cat is social, I’m up for hanging out with them too.

“Savannah is great! She truly went above and beyond for my pup. Would highly recommend her!”

Kayla K.

“Daniel was excellent. Took care of my kitties while I was out of the country for 2 weeks and constantly kept me in the loop and sent me pictures of them daily. Would highly recommend him.”

Danielle G.

Shireen D.

“Augie had a wonderful time with Mary Jane and family. This was the first time we left Augie with anyone; Mary Jane made us feel reassured and calm. We had a terrific get away and Augie had a great day! Thank you, Janine & Bruce”

Janine B.

“"Perfect" is the one word I would use for my doggie daycare interaction with Catherine! This was Maves first anything without one of use being with her. She is a highly active 7 month old puppy. Catherine was so great with her. I really felt my pupper was safe and being well taken care of. Updates of photos and text during the day and answered immediately when I wanted an additional update. Then when we got there for her second day, Mave was SUPER excited to be there again! That is when I knew this was the “Perfect” place for her to stay on daytrips or any other time I need. I will request Catherine each time I am south of Indy for vacations or one day getaway. Thank you Catherine, you made an enjoyable week even better!”

Deniece P.

“Thanks for taking my last-minute booking! Kimberly sent photos and updates to let me know my dog was having a good time at daycare. Would definitely book again.”

About: I grew up with several small dogs and I currently have three, so I have experience with taking care of their needs and giving attention to multiple dogs at once! I’m available for boarding and dog sitting on weekends and weekdays. I’m home most days so my schedule is fairly open. When I'm available, I rarely leave the house for more than an hour at a time. I have a fenced in yard for your dog to safely enjoy fresh air! I also have two small crates and the ability to segment off parts of the house with baby gates if the need arises.

Melissa G.

About: Hi, my name is Melinda of bark and stroll. I love animals. I have my own animal and I love taking care of animals inside my home or your home. I am retired, and I have plenty of time to take care of the animals. I love playing with them and taking them on nice walks. I have a decent sized yard. It’s not fenced in so I do walk the animals on a leash and we have some woods with paths near my house. If the dogs over 50 pounds I prefer them to be crate trained.

About: I own a King Charles Cavalier and a German Shepherd currently! I grew up on a farm in southern Indiana with multiple foster and adopted animals! My mother instilled a serious love and adoration for people and their favorite pets. I volunteered at our local animal shelter, was trained in multiple animal science courses, and was taught to love and respect the animals I work with, both domesticated and exotic. I have handled dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, foxes, raccoons, bobcats, farm livestock, petting zoo animals, and more. I love them and have tons of professional experience to give your fur-baby the best experience possible. Please feel free to message or call whenever needed and I am more then happy to accommodate ANYTHING you or your sweet pet needs. I have lots of time on my hands, currently we start our mornings with a good meal and a long walk along our neighborhood. We will head to the house for a quick nap or so that our older dogs and puppies can rest. We then head to either the local state park or a dog park for some new stimulation. When we return home, we have some free time with toys and puzzles, enjoy another good meal, take another long, walk around the neighborhood, and then cuddle on the couch or in the beds until bedtime. I don’t have a fence in yard however, we have multiple leashes here as well as one that you would prefer to use. All of our animals are continuously monitored, I work part-time, and we also have cameras in the house. Feel free to request photos or videos of your baby at any point in time.

About: I have plenty of experience taking care of animals growing up. I spent some time caring for my family's disabled dog, so I am not afraid of tackling some extra conditions. Friends and family have loved me as a top choice for petsitting. I am an independent artist which allows me to be fairly flexible.

Jackson S.

About: Hi there! I’m an avid animal lover with a gentle, patient approach to pet care. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and my rescue beagle, Mylo: a lovable goofball who keeps me humble and well‑trained. I always look after every pet with the same attentiveness, patience, and high quality care I give my own little crew. 🐾 󠁺 Before pursuing social work, I actually planned to become a veterinary technician, and that early passion for animals has stayed with me. I’ve volunteered at the Wabash animal shelter, spent years riding horses, and gained hands‑on experience with all kinds of personalities and needs. Mylo, who struggles with anxiety, has taught me a lot about de‑escalating reactivity and building trust through positive reinforcement. He also takes daily medication, so I’m very comfortable administering meds and following specific care routines. Mylo likes to think of it as his “evening treat with extra steps.” 󠁺 Over the past several years, I’ve pet‑sat for friends, family, and their extended circles. This has allowed me to care for pets of all ages and ranging needs. No matter the temperament, I adapt to each animal’s personality, mood, and boundaries. Striving to create a calm, reassuring environment where your pet feels understood is central to my approach as a caregiver. 󠁺 Please reach out if you have any questions! Your pet's comfort is my priority ❤️ My schedule is currently very open as I wrap up my internship, and I’m available for daily check‑ins, walks, and overnight stays! Please feel free to reach out with any questions, I’m always happy to connect. ❤️🐕‍🦺🎾 I love caring for pets where they feel safest, their home 🏡🐾. While I’m there, I carefully follow your pet’s routine and keep their space clean and comfortable, so you return to a happy, relaxed fur baby and a home that feels just as you left it (or better).

“Savannah was great this week with my little dog, Chloe. She was prompt and communicative. Chloe normally takes some time to warm up to new people but made fast friends with her.”

Laura C.

“Sara was flexible, always on-time, and my pup (a high energy catahoula) was very pleased with her walks (not to mention being very well behaved when I return). I hope to be fortunate enough to book with Sara whenever I'm in the area in the future!”

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I have always had at least one cat, and had dogs for 17 years of my life. I have also taken care of family and friends’ pets while they are out of town plenty of times. I am available all day every day for any kind of pet needs, and I can house cats overnight, however, I am unable to house dogs overnight. I am within walking distance of a dog park, and can bring animals inside or outside, whichever their needs are. I can also keep and transfer pets inside crates as needed.

About: I have taken care of animals of every kind since I was a child and have never met one I didn't like! I have been responsible for the well-being of multiple animals and am very responsible. I work full time but I have a flexible schedule. I would love to be able to spend my free time caring for your pets. I can care for any animals in my home and I am able to travel, within reason, to meet your needs! I would love to be able to meet the needs of you and your pet in whatever way possible! In my home, I will provide a very welcoming environment for your pet with my two cats who love to play alongside a dog or to curl up next to them and nap.

About: Hi! I’m Samantha, a lifelong animal lover and proud pet parent of 13 years. For over a decade, I have cared for my own pets and have also had the pleasure of pet sitting annually for four wonderful families. Whether it is walks, playtime, or feeding, I treat every animal like my own. I am available during 12:00 PM-1:00 PM most weekdays for a quick visit and after 5:00 PM. I am available most weekends for all hours. I personally do not do dog/cat sitting in my own home. I do have a lovely 1 year old mini Schnauzer named Suki and had a beloved mini Schnauzer named Layla for 9 years!

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, so I understand their different needs, behaviors, and routines at every stage. Growing up, I cared for several of my neighbors’ pets and have been pet sitting in my community every summer since. I’m currently a senior in undergrad, so my class schedule is pretty light and flexible. I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets, and I’m very active, so I love going on walks and spending time outside with them. I live in a neighborhood with a dog park, easy access to a trail, and sidewalks that are perfect for walks. While I don’t have a large yard or crate, there is plenty of space in my home to accommodate one if needed. Dogs are welcome in any room and on furniture, and I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for at all times.

About: College student available for part time help. Missing my dogs while at school!! I am a responsible, springer spaniel lover, and have been lifelong dog owner and carer most of my life. I am a senior in the Kelley School. Able to walk your dog mid-day or end of day most days throughout the week. Available on the weekends (around the football schedule!) I love to keep dogs company, get them moving, play with them. I like to make sure they’re comfortable and have their space, whether close or far from me.

About: **I have 5 years of experience fostering and training reactive, aggressive, and fearful dogs. I’ve seen many transform into well-adjusted companions under my care** I spent years tending to older dogs and cats with various health issues like hip dysplasia and incontinence, in addition to caring for puppies and kittens, too. I am patient and kind even with the highest maintenance puppies. I fostered neglected/previously abused dogs with Carolina Adopt-A-Bulls rescue for over 4 years. I am very experienced with mitigating leash reactivity and caring for heartworm-positive pets throughout their treatment, and I look out for dangerous situations before they happen. I am well versed in canine first aid and wound care. I am also a foster volunteer through the Bloomington Animal Shelter. I do not currently have a foster dog. I am attentive, caring, experienced, and kind. I can’t wait to meet your pets. I am a doctoral student, so I have some flexibility in my schedule. I’m booked up until 6pm on Wednesdays, but have more flexibility the rest of the week. I can take your pup for walks around the neighborhood, campus, or the many parks Bloomington has to offer. I have a comfy dog bed for canine visitors to lounge in while I’m studying.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life. I’ve had all different breeds- from French bulldogs to English Mastiffs. I’m diligent in my work with pets and know how to cater to their specific needs. I’ve been dog sitting for family friends and neighbors since I was 13. I’m currently at Indiana University away from home, but whenever I’m home I am constantly taking care of my 2 dogs. I administer their medication, feed them, go on walks, and generally hang out with them. I have had experience with all shapes and sizes of breeds; ranging from French bulldogs, to golden retrievers, to English mastiffs. I am a major animal person, so being with dogs 24/7 is just in my nature. I will play with the pets, take them on walks, and generally cater to their needs (feeding schedules, administer medication, etc) depending on the dog, as well as the owner’s instructions.

“Rocky and Mia had a great time. Nora's home is clean and comfortable. Her yard is perfect for them to run around and get some exercise. You can really tell she loves working with pets. Careful and attentive. Nora sent us several pictures and updates each day. We will definitely us Nora again in the future. Thanks Nora.”

“We had a great experience with Mariah! She took amazing care of Goose and kept us updated with thoughtful, detailed messages the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she really paid attention to his routine, behavior, and little quirks. Goose got plenty of exercise, attention, and care, and we came home to a happy (and tired!) pup. We would absolutely trust her to watch Goose again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“Madison was wonderful and flexible. First, we were able to modify our dates before the trip. Second. We ran into traffic on our way home and Madison was able to watch our dog for extra tune until we got home. We got picture updates and our dog was happy.”

“I'm so glad we found Celsei! We have an older beagle who lives a quiet life. We were worried that she couldn't handle where we usually board her because she has a bad hip and doesn't hear as well as she used to. Celsei was great with her. We loved getting pictures and videos of what Cookie (our dog) was up to while we were gone. Celsei has her own dogs, and everyone looked like they were having a great time together. We will definitely book with Celsei again the next time we have to leave Cookie behind. Thanks, Celsei!”

“Ziggy can be very anxious around new people so I'm always nervous leaving him but Kelly was great with him and with building his trust! I also loved all the photos and updates. He came back happy and tired from playing with all the dogs”

“Lindsie provided excellent care and attention for my little boy Otto. She was very good about sending me photos and reassuring me he was doing just fine with her. Otto is a 9 year old Miniature Schnauzer and used to just the two of us being together but he did very well with Lindsie. I highly recommend considering Lindsie as a sitter.”

“Trista does such a great job with our pups. She sends pictures and updates daily. Our girls love going to her and we del comfortable leaving them with her.”

“Stephanie was so sweet and attentive to our dog, Augie! I could tell she really paid attention to his needs and got to know him. We’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”

“Lucy definitely made my dog feel comfortable. I appreciated the communication since I received a few pictures a day of my dog. Lucy did a great job and made sure to give my dog her medicine. Thank you!”

Emily W.

“Tawny was super awesome. I felt 100% about leaving Nisa with her. I always got a sweet picture and update at the end of the day and knew Nisa was happy at Tawny’s doggie paradise.”

“Tiffany was kind, communicative, and took great care of my dog!”

About: Hi! I’m Alana 😊 I provide reliable, attentive care so your pet can stay comfortable while you’re away. I started volunteering at a humane society in middle school and later gained hands-on experience shadowing veterinary technicians at IndyVet. This helped me learn how to read animal body language, handle different temperaments, and provide safe, attentive care. Growing up, my family had golden retrievers, pit bulls, cats, bunnies, and hamsters, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of pets and personalities. I now have three miniature dachshunds of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ll treat your furry friend with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own! I work full time throughout the week. I am typically available during the evenings on Monday - Thursday, and then all day on Friday - Saturday! Because I have three dogs of my own, I prefer to have your dogs come to my home for overnight sitting. I understand how important our furry friends are and how difficult it can be to be away from them. That’s why I like to learn as much as possible about each pet ahead of time. Knowing their routines, preferences, and personality helps me create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while you’re away.

“Kelsie was very nice and updated me with photos and updates to make sure my puppy was doing great I would highly recommend and appreciate the last minute notice that I had to board my dog.”

Jesse W.

“We are so grateful for the care Matthew and Ellie gave to our dog Marla. This was our first time using Rover and we were very nervous. Matthew and Ellie let us come to their home to see everything and how more the would feel at their place. They are very open and respectful. Marla had a wonderful time they provided daily pictures. They were very responsive to any messages. They were in constant communication with us and were also very flexible when we needed to extend marvelous care. We are very pleased with how everything went and will definitely be using them again in the future. I especially appreciated how they seemed to not just see this as a job, but actually enjoyed having Marla as part of their family.”

“Thank you so much for taking good care of Hei, and for being understanding of his situation! He came home very happy :)”

“Zoë is very sweet & knowledgeable when it comes to doggies! She took such great care of my little golden and kept me informed throughout the day each day on how she was doing with messages and photos. I would highly recommend Zoë for any/all of your doggie needs! :)”

“The BEST. ♥️ I cannot say enough good things about Katherine and the experience my dog had staying with her. She was exceptionally warm, thoughtful, attentive, compassionate, loving. Beyond being nurturing, Katherine was clearly experienced in caring for dogs. My dog is 14 and Katherine went above and beyond in making sure the environment was comfortable for her. She sent photos throughout my pup's stay, and my pup was relaxed and happy in every photo. I think my dog wanted to live with Katherine after her stay. She was SO HAPPY when I brought her home. She was looking at me like "thank you so much for this vacation, mom" -- seriously. Katherine went far beyond making sure my dog was fed and safe. She was spending quality time with her, playing, and treating her with kindness and lots of affection. Leaving a dog with someone new can be a bit stressful, Katherine immediately made me felt at ease and I knew my dog would be in wonderful hands while I was away. You could not ask for a better sitter. 🐺 🫶”

About: College student available for part time help. Missing my dogs while at school!! I am a responsible, springer spaniel lover, and have been lifelong dog owner and carer most of my life. I am a senior in the Kelley School. Able to walk your dog mid-day or end of day most days throughout the week. Available on the weekends (around the football schedule!)
