“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.”

“Couldn’t ask for a better sitter! I don’t have to worry about a thing when my dog stays. They are trustworthy, kind, polite, keeps me consistently updated. Top notch I know Mollie will miss staying when we move away in the future.”

“Joe did a great job watching my dog. He was kind enough to meet me at the airport to pick her up, and then drop her off. This saved me a lot of time, and was very convenient. He kept me updated on how she was doing throughout her stay. I’ll use his services again!”

About: I have had dogs and cats all my life. I am willing to keep special needs pets and am able to give medication. I am open to discussing any special requirements your pet might have. I live at home with my mom and this is my only job. I am free to give your pet all the love and attention they need. I have a lead in our yard for potty time and live near a dog park for fun and exercise. We will take walks, having brushing time to bond, and have lots of play time. I do have a dog kennel available inside and will have food and water bowls for your pup. We do have cats, so please make sure your dog is cat friendly.
“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.”

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.

About: I’ve always been around animals! Having cared from a wide variety of animals from a young age I’ve picked up on tons of tips and tricks for training and enrichment! I’m confident in my training abilities, and especially care with disabled/ elderly dogs. Puppies are no challenge either! Any animals are welcome big or small! 🐾 I’m currently working full time, however I get off pretty early in the day and have a ton of wiggle room in my schedule! Weekends are fair game completely! I am incredibly accommodating, so when it comes to pet care in other homes, I 100% prioritize maintaining the current schedules/ routine the animal is used to. I’ll follow specific instructions for playtime, feeding, administering medications, and additional needs. I ensure a clean and happy environment, so cleaning up messes is nothing I’m not used to! On walks I prioritize safety, so the dog will never be off leash and I remain very spatially aware of potential hazards. Walks are where I like to do the most training, so I will also provide a ton of positive reinforcement and patience!
“When we picked up Shadow from her stay, she came back to us exactly how we left her—happy, healthy, and full of energy. All her needs were taken care of, from mealtime and naps to plenty of playtime in the backyard, which made us feel really at ease knowing she was so well looked after.”

“Katia was so awesome and took care of my husky Ethel for 5 days while I was out of town. She came home so happy and exhausted. 10/10 She accommodate us last minute which was super sweet of her.”


“Alexis was fantastic with Bentley! He can be anxious when away from home, but he always seemed relaxed and happy in the daily updates I would get. He even let Alexis trim his nails, which he seldom does with anyone!”

“Desirae was very sweet and accommodating for taking in our Riven for an extended stay with such short notice. We received an update for each day we were gone that usually included at least one picture or short video, and she answered any questions we had. Riven seemed happy and well cared for when we picked her up.”

“I have never had to leave my puppies with a complete stranger but I could not have been more comfortable with leaving my two dogs with Britny. She is very accommodating and made me and my dogs feel very comfortable and welcome. She sent regular picture updates and always responds very quickly to any messages I had sent. My family travels often and will be using Britny as a puppy Home-away-from-Home.”

“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!”

“Absolutely would book again. Had a last minute booking and John was very open and understanding. John kept us updated and sent some great pics of the pups. John made our dogs feel welcomed and at home while we were gone and I'd honestly give him 10 stars for this experience if I could.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was about 10 years old, babysitting family and friends dogs along with taking care of my own dogs. I’ve been around them for as long as I can remember! I currently work three 12 hour shifts a week at the hospital, but I am looking to fill my days off with some doggy care! I will care for your dog at your home in the best way that I possibly can! I have a small dog of my own, I treat him as if he’s my child and I will do the same for any and every dog I take care of:)

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 pets for as long as I can remember. Family and friends have relied on me to care for their furry friends for over 10 years. I even take care of cats and dogs professionally as a kennel assistant at an animal hospital! I'm a college student who works short hours part-time (at an animal hospital!), so I can always check in with your pet(s) between classes and before and after work! I can leash walk multiple dogs if needed, crate cats and dogs, and of course play with them for as long as they will have me!
“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!”

“As I am sure most pet parents considering a pet sitter are, I think of my pets as my babies. I was getting really stressed out about leaving my 3 cats for 3 days and finding someone to watch them. I was so relieved when I found a sitter and it was an amazing experience. They sent photos, videos, and kept open communication. I felt like my cats were in great hands the entire time and while I was excited to come home, I felt less nervous about being away. I am definitely going to be using them in the future again and would recommend them to anyone.”


“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!”


About: I’ve grown up caring for cats and have years of experience understanding their unique personalities, needs, and routines. I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box care, playtime, enrichment, and giving cats the patience and affection they need while their owners are away. I also have dogs who love cats, so I’m familiar with creating a calm and safe environment for feline friends. I treat every pet like family and prioritize their comfort and well being.
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.
“Noah was amazing! I had to go out of state to visit family and I had Noah watch my dog and cat for two days. Noah let me know before he arrived at my house and created a card for every time they were at my house. Noah included pictures and updates of my animals each visit! I had a problem with my security system and it resulted in the alarm going off while Noah was there. Noah was really calm and collected during all of it and was a great help! I definitely recommend Noah!”

Thank you Alyssa!!!!”

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.

“Noah was amazing. He accepted the booking last minute very graciously as we had an emergency out of state that left us in a position to leave our sweet pup alone for two days. He took the time to allow Chai to get comfortable with him and took him for a walk each day so Chai wouldn’t feel so isolated. Noah allowed us to handle a family emergency without having the additional worry of our pup.”

About: I've had pets my entire life- my family wouldn't be complete without my fur babies! Growing up we've had labs, a very large hound mix, and a golden retriever. I got my own dog, a black lab mix, when I graduated college and had her for 14 years until she passed 1.5 years ago. I adopted a stray American bulldog when my lab was around 3, and had her for about 8 years, until she passed. Don't currently have any pups, but I love them to death. I'm able to feed, water, brush, walk, play with, and even bathe them if needed! Hoping to add more puppy kisses to my life! I'm currently between jobs and looking to do something I enjoy on the side, so taking care of your cute critters is ideal! My daughter is at school all day and I have my own vehicle, so I'm happy to drop by your place and help out while you're away. I'm more than willing to accommodate any needs you may have when it comes to your pets. Please let me know how I can make you more at ease! Whether it's a certain thing you need me to do, sharing your cat or dog's likes or dislikes, or just wanting a check-in with a quick photo of Fluffy, I'll do whatever I can to make sure everyone is happy and healthy!
About: Starting from when I was little, I always loved animals. My first dog was my dachshund Holly who I took to 4H training classes, walked, and played ball with. Later in life I attended and graduated with a degree to be a Veterinary Technican. I did my internship here in Muncie at Boyce Animal Hospital and was then hired on as kennel staff before transitioning to a tech position. I worked at Happy Dogs for a couple years in daycare and boarding services. I currently am back at Boyce as an assistant. I have experiences with giving medications to both dogs and cats. I also have a knowledge of general health concerns of both cats and dogs from my experiences with my own animals and the animals I’ve worked with. I currently have 1 dog and 3 cats and would love to get to know your pet family through walks, play, and pets!

About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals since I was a child. Beyond my own pets, I worked as an animal caretaker and cared for pets of varying ages and abilities. I’ve even given medicine to a baby chameleon! I’m a teacher on summer break, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I will be on break until August. I have my own sweet dog that loves other dogs, but if yours needs walked alone, that’s okay too. I have always had pets of all kinds and I worked at petsmart as the animal caretaker, so I have experience with traditional pets as well as reptiles, birds, fish, etc.
About: I have adopted several dogs from shelters over the years; all being larger breeds like German shepherds / shepherd mix as well as being both elderly and special needs dogs. This means I have experience in giving dogs medication, and giving them extra attention for any needs they may need. While they have been elderly that didn’t impair them for going out on long walks, or being large strong dogs; making me confident in my ability to safely walk almost any dog outdoors. While I've done a lot of stuff with older dogs that doesn't stop me from being able to keep up with a young energetic pup either! I have also helped out several friends with pet sitting their dogs many times. This has also given me experience in dealing with nervous / anxious dogs and their needs. I work a job that allows me to work from my (or your) home on most days and have no other set obligations. I do not have a job that comes with surprise emergencies, so once I agree to a time, I will be able to make it. You know how to take care of your pet, it's my job to imitate that while you are gone so they can feel safe or less anxious while you are away. With my experience with shelter adoptions, I understand that some pets may need special care and feel up to most such challenges. Honesty is my policy. While I don’t expect it, if there is something I am uncomfortable with, a task or sadly your pet and I aren’t compatible, I'd clearly say so at our first meeting allowing you the time to search for other options.
About: Caring for animals has been a lifelong part of my life. I’ve always had pets in my home and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and needs. Over the years, I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable with a wide range of pet personalities, including shy or independent cats and high-energy dogs that love to play and go for walks. I understand that every pet has their own routine, and I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, clean litter boxes, administer basic medications if needed, and make sure your pets get plenty of love and attention while you’re away. In my own home, I currently care for two Goldendoodles, a cat, and a 29-gallon fish tank, so daily pet care is simply part of my routine. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and cared for when you’re not there, and I take that responsibility seriously. Cat visits tend to fit especially well with my schedule and offer great flexibility alongside my full-time job, but I also welcome dog visits and would love the opportunity to care for them as well. My goal is always to make sure your pets feel comfortable, safe, and happy until you return home. I work a full-time job with hours that may vary between 9:00 AM and 7:30 PM throughout the week. Because of this, my pet visits typically take place before work or in the evenings after work. I’m also sometimes able to stop by midday during my lunch break or on my days off, depending on my schedule that week. I do my best to be flexible whenever possible and will always communicate clearly about availability. If your pet has a specific routine or timing needs, feel free to reach out and we can see what works best. My goal is to provide dependable, consistent care while making sure your pets feel comfortable and well looked after while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. During visits, I make sure pets are fed according to their schedule, have fresh water, and that litter boxes or potty areas are clean. I spend time giving them attention, playtime, and companionship so they don’t feel lonely while their family is away. For cats, this often includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning the litter box, playtime, and some quiet companionship depending on their personality. For dogs, visits can include feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of positive attention. I always respect the client’s home and follow any specific instructions provided for their pet’s care. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Every pet is different, and I take the time to learn their personality and routine so they feel comfortable and cared for during each visit.
About: My mom grew us up on rescuing and caring for animals! I plan to do the same! It is my morality to care and nurture for all living things. I start college soon so I am trying to implement flexible scheduled jobs that give me joy and enthusiasm throughout my strenuous studies! I work part- time at a restaurant and plan to leave once I get better opportunities! I will be moving next month (address will change) It has a unfenced yard with long leashes! if your doggo is a track star! I will have an available crate if but don't like to use it! I have a wonderful doggo and she is fixed and very friendly just gives a little bark for show!
About: You can also go to my business page on Facebook. Haylie's Whiskers and Wags Pet Care I have cared for many different breeds of dogs. Whether that be just feeding, to training and grooming. I have had my personal pets for over 10 years. I have a very open schedule and I am open most of the time. I could fulfill a full or part-time schedule for any owners in need. I have a fenced in yard. My dogs eat off a feeding schedule. I have also potty trained all of my dogs. I bathe my dogs once a mouth to every two mouths as well to keep them not matted and promote hair and skin health. I do this full time. Whether that is boarding, drop-ins, doggy day care or grooming. I love my job everyday spending time with the fur babies. Getting to know them and their mom and dad. I have a fenced in backyard with a fenced portion in the front. The dogs are constantly able to be observed through the day because I do this full time and when I'm not able to they are if needed in a crate. Like my pups are when I have to leave at anytime.

“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.”

“Joe did a great job watching my dog. He was kind enough to meet me at the airport to pick her up, and then drop her off. This saved me a lot of time, and was very convenient. He kept me updated on how she was doing throughout her stay. I’ll use his services again!”

“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.”

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.

About: I’ve always been around animals! Having cared from a wide variety of animals from a young age I’ve picked up on tons of tips and tricks for training and enrichment! I’m confident in my training abilities, and especially care with disabled/ elderly dogs. Puppies are no challenge either! Any animals are welcome big or small! 🐾 I’m currently working full time, however I get off pretty early in the day and have a ton of wiggle room in my schedule! Weekends are fair game completely! I am incredibly accommodating, so when it comes to pet care in other homes, I 100% prioritize maintaining the current schedules/ routine the animal is used to. I’ll follow specific instructions for playtime, feeding, administering medications, and additional needs. I ensure a clean and happy environment, so cleaning up messes is nothing I’m not used to! On walks I prioritize safety, so the dog will never be off leash and I remain very spatially aware of potential hazards. Walks are where I like to do the most training, so I will also provide a ton of positive reinforcement and patience!
“When we picked up Shadow from her stay, she came back to us exactly how we left her—happy, healthy, and full of energy. All her needs were taken care of, from mealtime and naps to plenty of playtime in the backyard, which made us feel really at ease knowing she was so well looked after.”


“Alexis was fantastic with Bentley! He can be anxious when away from home, but he always seemed relaxed and happy in the daily updates I would get. He even let Alexis trim his nails, which he seldom does with anyone!”

“Desirae was very sweet and accommodating for taking in our Riven for an extended stay with such short notice. We received an update for each day we were gone that usually included at least one picture or short video, and she answered any questions we had. Riven seemed happy and well cared for when we picked her up.”

“I have never had to leave my puppies with a complete stranger but I could not have been more comfortable with leaving my two dogs with Britny. She is very accommodating and made me and my dogs feel very comfortable and welcome. She sent regular picture updates and always responds very quickly to any messages I had sent. My family travels often and will be using Britny as a puppy Home-away-from-Home.”

“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!”

“Absolutely would book again. Had a last minute booking and John was very open and understanding. John kept us updated and sent some great pics of the pups. John made our dogs feel welcomed and at home while we were gone and I'd honestly give him 10 stars for this experience if I could.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was about 10 years old, babysitting family and friends dogs along with taking care of my own dogs. I’ve been around them for as long as I can remember! I currently work three 12 hour shifts a week at the hospital, but I am looking to fill my days off with some doggy care! I will care for your dog at your home in the best way that I possibly can! I have a small dog of my own, I treat him as if he’s my child and I will do the same for any and every dog I take care of:)
“Christina was great and would recommend her. She provided daily updates and was easy to communicate with throughout the process, from originally booking all the way up past my pup being picked up. Will definitely use Christina again in the future!”

“Cameron was GREAT. He was a prompt communicator, very friendly, and me feel comfortable leaving Checo to be watched by his sister and him (I'm a first time app user). They were both very nice people and kept me posted when I checked in to see how Checo was behaving. I could tell Checo enjoyed his stay with them. I highly recommend him and plan on being a repeat customer in the future for Checo's boarding needs.”

“We are so grateful for Joseph and his family for their care in watching our dog, Jack. On the day we were to drop Jack off to Joseph, Jack had an accident where she required veterinary care. Joseph was still willing to accept Jack and administer antibiotics and pain medication for a week while we were traveling. Joseph sent daily pictures and provided updates so we felt more at ease. Joseph and his entire family show care and love when Jack really needed it. I fully recommend them. Thank you.”
