About: I have 9 years experience of professional dog training. I have 3 shepherds of my own who I use as demo dogs when teaching classes! I work with dogs of all breeds and sizes (always love a challenge:)). I also do a lot of boarding, dog sitting and walking for a lot of my clients and bring my dogs to tag along for a full pack walk! I also do baths, nails, blow drying and brush outs! I currently make my own schedule as I do dog training, grooming and boarding. I am able to attend to every dog immediately and do not need to leave them alone long at all! Sundays are the only days where there will be a 4 hour gap due to church :) I have a fenced and yard with plenty of space to roam and run and I have my 3 shepherds to keep your fur baby company! I also have crates that I can use as well!
“Thank you, Christopher takes good care of my fur babies. We took them there for this first time couple of months ago and we went back last weekend. We will definitely keep going back.”
“Alexis was great! From picking him up to dropping him off, and everything in between, our dog was happy and we had great peace of mind. She sent us pictures throughout our vacation with updates on our sweet guy.”
“Great communication!!! Leo had a great time spending the weekend with Seygourney, Eric, and their dog James. I received lots of updates including photos and a video. Would definitely recommend!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have been happier with Gerard. We were obviously a bit nervous leaving our dog for 8 nights with someone we didn’t know, but Gerard’s wonderful personality and caring communication put our heart at ease from day one. He definitely puts care into the dogs he watches. He sent us daily videos which were great, and kept us up to date. Our dog Roscoe looked like he was having a blast every time. We will definitely use Gerard in the future for other dog sitting needs. Thanks so much Gerard!!”
“Bella is a repeat guest with Crystal, mostly because I know she lives as good or better than at home! The whole family loves on her and make sure she is well taken care of. Will definitely continue to book! KC”
“I love Samantha. So does my puppy. What’s not to love? We have had her sit Elvis a few times now and are always so happy about his stay! She sends photos and updated often - and replies fast. Laika (her dog) is Elvis’s new bestie!!! Samantha even bought Elvis more food because he ran out before we even had time to panic!!! She is amazing.”
“Jennifer was very attentive and accommodating to ensure my anxious dog felt comfortable, happy, and loved. I received photos often which showed my girl going for walks, snuggling on the couch, and enjoying the backyard.”
“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.”
“This was our first time using Amy; we went on a short overnight trip. Amy gave us three updates in the time we were away. She also responded quickly when I let her know we were unexpectedly able to pick Zetta up a couple hours earlier than planned. Zetta seemed happy and Amy and her son Eli both seemed taken with her - and Zetta seemed comfortable with them. Amy also seemed conscientious about following the written instructions I’d left for her re: Zetta’s exercise limitations and medication.”
“Kristen took in our Rey (1yo Dachshund) during our time away during the holidays on short notice. Such a relief to have had Rey stay in the care of a very nice home and family. Will definitely look for Kristen again in the future!”
“I couldn't be happier with Yelena! My pups were well taken care of, with plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles. Yelena was incredibly flexible with my schedule and always responsive to any questions or updates I needed. The regular photos and updates gave me a peace of mind while away. It’s clear she treats every pet like her own. Highly recommend!”
“Katia was very helpful. Her home was clean and her dogs and kitten seemed to do well with Connor. Connor chewed his leash in two and Katia went and bought another and said we did not need to pay her back for the cost. Of course we did though. We would recommend Katia.”
“Candie was so good to our boy, Riley. She made drop-off and pickup easy, she sent daily updates with pictures, and she left us have great peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. 5 stars without hesitation for Candie. Thank you!!!”

I do not have a crate, but if you'd like to provide one, I'm happy to crate your baby as needed.

I am a full time student at Ball State which makes my schedule pretty flexible throughout the week and weekend to be able to drop in on your pet. I will care for your home like I would care for mine. I’ll make sure windows and doors are locked before leaving. Ensuring your pet is secure and comfortable! When you return, you’ll never know that I was there. Everything will be as you left it or better!

About: I have 9 years experience of professional dog training. I have 3 shepherds of my own who I use as demo dogs when teaching classes! I work with dogs of all breeds and sizes (always love a challenge:)). I also do a lot of boarding, dog sitting and walking for a lot of my clients and bring my dogs to tag along for a full pack walk! I also do baths, nails, blow drying and brush outs! I currently make my own schedule as I do dog training, grooming and boarding. I am able to attend to every dog immediately and do not need to leave them alone long at all! Sundays are the only days where there will be a 4 hour gap due to church :) I have a fenced and yard with plenty of space to roam and run and I have my 3 shepherds to keep your fur baby company! I also have crates that I can use as well!
“Alexis was great! From picking him up to dropping him off, and everything in between, our dog was happy and we had great peace of mind. She sent us pictures throughout our vacation with updates on our sweet guy.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t have been happier with Gerard. We were obviously a bit nervous leaving our dog for 8 nights with someone we didn’t know, but Gerard’s wonderful personality and caring communication put our heart at ease from day one. He definitely puts care into the dogs he watches. He sent us daily videos which were great, and kept us up to date. Our dog Roscoe looked like he was having a blast every time. We will definitely use Gerard in the future for other dog sitting needs. Thanks so much Gerard!!”
“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.”
“I couldn't be happier with Yelena! My pups were well taken care of, with plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles. Yelena was incredibly flexible with my schedule and always responsive to any questions or updates I needed. The regular photos and updates gave me a peace of mind while away. It’s clear she treats every pet like her own. Highly recommend!”
“Candie was so good to our boy, Riley. She made drop-off and pickup easy, she sent daily updates with pictures, and she left us have great peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. 5 stars without hesitation for Candie. Thank you!!!”
“As this was my first time trying to find a dog sitter or boarding that is reasonable, I’ve come to find it’s difficult especially outside of Indy. Kari & Clint were absolutely phenomenal and I can’t say enough great things! We even received pictures of our pup while away. They are super friendly, and ensured my trust from day 1. We would love to have their business again in the future. Thank you again.”
“When we are away, we are so comfortable leaving our fur babies with Brook and Cameron. They will always be my first choice. Thank you both for taking such good care of Maverick and Mia! It's reassuring knowing they are well taken care of.”
“Wrigley always enjoys his time with Nancy. We enjoy the pics and videos that Nancy shares while we are away from our pup. We always know that Wrigley is in good hands with Nancy and we don't have to worry about him!”
“Christina is an exceptional dog sitter who provided top-notch care for Chloe while I was away. From the outset, her communication was excellent. She kept me updated regularly and sent plenty of adorable pictures that reassured me Chloe was happy and well-cared for. Christina's exceptional understanding and flexibility were a huge relief when my plans unexpectedly changed, requiring an extension of Chloe's stay. Her accommodating nature alleviated a lot of stress for me during a busy time. Christina and her family were incredibly warm and friendly, creating a welcoming environment where Chloe quickly felt at home. Their care and attentiveness gave me peace of mind, knowing Chloe was not only safe but also enjoying herself. I will definitely enlist Christina's services again whenever I need dog sitting. Her professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for animals make her a standout choice for anyone looking for a trustworthy pet caregiver.”
“Jett had a wonderful time! I think he wanted to stay longer & play 😂 We were thrilled to get tons of pictures and videos of our baby as well as really good communication while we were away. Thank you for taking such good care of him and I know he’s looking forward to the next play date!”
“Nikki T was fabulous. Remi does not like to be without his family. Nikki had no problems in making Remi comfortable in her home. Great experience for Remi and our family. Would return to, and recommend Nikki T.”
“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.”
“Amazing!!! Roscoe and Rudi stayed over a week and had an amazing time! We received multiple pictures each day with updates! They had lots of outdoor time in the sun and were made special beds so they were comfortable. My fav is that they smell so good when coming home! Thanks for another fantastic stay! ❤️”
