“Celsei and “team” were amazing!! Rudi had fun!! It’s like he was on vacation too with his new friends!! We are from out of town so having Rudi stay with Celsei was a blessing. She communicated regularly which was wonderful peace of mind. When we come back, Celsei will be our first pick!!”
“Mary Jane and her partner were absolutely WONDERFUL! They were both very very communicative in sending pictures and updates daily. They treated my pup like their own, truly! Do not hesitate to book with them!!”

“Chelsea did a fabulous job taking care of our dog. We also appreciated her quick communication and willingness to watch our dog as a last minute booking and to add on a day when we wanted to extend our trip. Highly recommend.”
“Rubal was absolutely wonderful with Kingston! I needed a sitter for a last-minute weekend away, and she took excellent care of him. She sent daily pictures and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone. Kingston was happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of love and attention. Her son also adored him, which made me smile. I would not hesitate to book with Rubal again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive dog sitter. We will definitely be back!”

I absolutely recommend her and I know I will not hesitate to book with her again in the future.”
“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.

We would absolutely trust her to watch Goose again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“She was amazing there dog aurora is so cute and friendly. My dog had the best time and came home absolutely exhausted will definitely have them as my first choice for all bookings”

“Laura was amazing with our two Pups of Chaos. She dealt expertly with their problem behaviors, and kept us updated on how they were doing. It was hugely comforting to us know that our one very anxious pup was able to be calm with her. Would definitely recommend Laura to anyone looking for a great place for their dogs, and I know we'll be back.”
“Kelsey has a wonderful and kind energy. I truly can’t say enough good things about our experience with her. Spot was immediately made to feel like one of her family and I loved getting updates and photos of him receiving so much attention and love, especially from her daughter his new BFF. My only fear was that Spot was having too much fun and would be sad to leave. We definitely have to plan another trip so Spot can go back to visit his new friends.”

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.
“Deborah is such a great sitter for our pup! She always sends lots of pics and videos and our pup is exhausted after any time spend there since she gets to run around and play so much! You should book with Deborah for your next time out of town!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and understand that some animals need special care. I live in a quiet neighborhood with great walking paths! I work a Monday through Friday normal schedule, going into work around 6am and coming home around 3pm each day. I love going on morning, afternoon, and evening walks with my dog, Toby, and he loves to run around our backyard too. Weekends are meant for fun! Sometimes we go to the dog park or a walk through downtown. I care for them by giving them attention, sticking to a nice schedule, and understanding that every animal is different in their own, unique way. Some require more care, others are very chill like my own dog!

Whether your kitty is shy, social, playful, or independent, I connect in a way that feels right for them. 🐈🧶 My schedule is very flexible right now since I’ve just wrapped up my internship, and I offer everything from drop‑ins to overnight stays. I always prefer meeting in person beforehand so you and your cat feel completely at ease. I’d love to connect and support you however I can; your pet’s well‑being truly matters to me.

About: My fiancé and I have cared for dogs of various breeds, sizes, and temperaments, from puppies to senior dogs requiring special attention. Our experience includes feeding according to dietary needs, ensuring regular exercise through walks and playtime, administering medications, and maintaining a safe, clean environment. And let’s not forget, all the cuddles your pup will allow! Pet care fits seamlessly into our weekly routine, as both my fiancé, Renas, and I work from home. I work part-time and he works full-time, which means one of us is always home to provide attentive care. Renas shares my love for animals and is always actively involved in caring for the pets we welcome. Our schedules are flexible and fully adaptable to meet your pet’s unique needs. While your pet is in our care, we will follow any schedule/routine that fits your pets needs. We will also ensure proper feeding/watering and any dietary restrictions. Pets will have regular walks and playtime as well as proper physical and mental stimulation such as engaging in games or activities that cater to the pet’s personality and energy level. If games and activities aren’t your pets cup of tea, we can be great couch potatoes and cuddle buddies as well. Maintaining a clean pet environment is a priority ensuring their space is free from hazards. Any basic grooming needs will also be provided. Last but not least, we are happy to keep pet owners updated regularly through messages, pictures, or videos to provide peace of mind. (Pets are allowed on furniture and are welcome to sleep in bed if preferred 😊) Side note- We live in a two story home on a half acre lot that backs up to a wooded area. Our yard is not fenced in so dogs will need to be leashed when going outside. Our neighborhood is very dog friendly with tree lined streets and sidewalks on both sides. There’s also several trails nearby that’s great for dog walking and adventures!

“Misty enjoyed her stay at Kelly’s”. Misty usually resists when we drop her off at daycare centers, but she went happily when we dropped her at Kelly”s house. That was the kind of wonderful care that Kelly provided.”
“Destinee is absolutely amazing! She is very flexible (my schedule can be unpredictable and finding Destinee was such a relief… she is very accommodating, and was able to be flexible enough for me to adjust pick up times as I traveled during a couple of days of bad weather without having to worry). Destinee responds quickly to messages and treats our pup Molly so well! I had never used a pet sitter before and was a bit worried how Molly would be with a sitter, but Destinee has been so awesome it really put my mind at ease! Molly is so happy and tired when I pick her up… it’s obvious Destinee is paying great attention to Molly and giving her the physical and mental stimulation she needs as a puppy.”
“Nichole Is an excellent care taker for Appa! Also, That goes To any other dog too, from how I see how she handles these beautiful good boys/girls! Definitely going to be working with her family more! So genuine!”
“Tawny was relaxed and good with my dogs. She wasn’t put off by my Shepherds size or talkativeness. On the other hand, I was nervous. First time leaving my dogs with a new sitter. Tawny thought to send pictures of my dogs with some new friends without me asking, which was a relief. My dogs were happy and tired when I picked them up. They had had a great day. They even got a very sweet card from Tawny’a own dogs. Very nice touch”
“Kamela was fantastic with my puppy! Her and her family accepted my baby as their own and I never had to doubt her safety or well being. Will definitely be using in the future and 100% recommended ☺️”
About: I am a loving trustworthy pet sitter with 10 years experience watching family, friends, and neighbors animals. My experience in training, exercise, play time, boarding, and spoiling set me apart and provide your animals the best care possible while you are away! I watch dogs full time. I am able to devote any range of attention and care that your animal needs. I can come to you or your pet can come to me. I have a loving home with lots of toys to fit your animals needs. I keep the animals inside and prefer to let them be free and comfortable. I have found that using a blanket, shirt, or bed from home usually helps when boarding that they can cuddle with, or I can use a crate if your animal is more comfortable that way. I have the ability to separate animals if your animal requires one on one love :) I do this full time and just started an in home kennel! I can do home visits, doggy daycare, and boarding at any time or day that fits your schedule! I have home on 3 acres out in the country with 2 fenced in areas, along with an outdoor inclosed kennel. I take animals on walks and we love spending time outside when the weather permits! I always keep them on a leash when we’re outside for the safety of the animals.

About: I grew up on a farm, surrounded by animals. We had horses, goats, chickens, cows, and of course dogs and cats. We have 2 Australian Shepherds, and a bunch of cats.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and that lifelong experience has shaped me into a patient, attentive, and genuinely passionate caregiver. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m someone who truly understands different personalities, needs, and stages of life. I have hands-on experience with everything from energetic puppies who need consistent training and structure to senior pets who require gentle care, medication routines, and extra comfort.

On a weekly basis, I dedicate time for longer walks, and special care for senior pets. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. I create a calm, safe, and structured environment where they can relax and settle in comfortably. I maintain consistent feeding schedules, provide plenty of playtime and walks, and make sure they always have access to fresh water and cozy resting spots. I pay close attention to their routine, preferences, and any special needs—whether that’s extra potty breaks for puppies or a quiet space for senior pets.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind for my friends and family for a few years now. I have always been an animal lover & can’t wait to help take care of yours! :) I am currently working from home and my schedule is really flexible!

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).

“Celsei and “team” were amazing!! Rudi had fun!! It’s like he was on vacation too with his new friends!! We are from out of town so having Rudi stay with Celsei was a blessing. She communicated regularly which was wonderful peace of mind. When we come back, Celsei will be our first pick!!”
“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.”
“Rubal was absolutely wonderful with Kingston! I needed a sitter for a last-minute weekend away, and she took excellent care of him. She sent daily pictures and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone. Kingston was happy, well cared for, and clearly received lots of love and attention. Her son also adored him, which made me smile. I would not hesitate to book with Rubal again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive dog sitter. We will definitely be back!”
“Absolutely wonderful with my two dogs; they were taken very good care of, and I got daily pupdates! She was very responsive and understanding to the times I needed to drop off/ pick up my dogs. I will most certainly be boarding my dogs here again when needed.”
“Jasmine did a wonderful job watching Pretzel, I could tell he felt completely at home with her. She kept me very informed with updates and photos of their daily adventures and he looked like he was smiling in his photos. I absolutely recommend her and I know I will not hesitate to book with her again in the future.”
“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!”
“She was amazing there dog aurora is so cute and friendly. My dog had the best time and came home absolutely exhausted will definitely have them as my first choice for all bookings”
“Both dogs loved her. They are typically shy to new people, and went right with her. They enjoyed playing outside and the other animals to play with. I would definitely rebook with her and recommend her to anyone. We were updated with plenty of pictures as well.”
“Laura was amazing with our two Pups of Chaos. She dealt expertly with their problem behaviors, and kept us updated on how they were doing. It was hugely comforting to us know that our one very anxious pup was able to be calm with her. Would definitely recommend Laura to anyone looking for a great place for their dogs, and I know we'll be back.”
“Kelsey has a wonderful and kind energy. I truly can’t say enough good things about our experience with her. Spot was immediately made to feel like one of her family and I loved getting updates and photos of him receiving so much attention and love, especially from her daughter his new BFF. My only fear was that Spot was having too much fun and would be sad to leave. We definitely have to plan another trip so Spot can go back to visit his new friends.”
“Deborah is such a great sitter for our pup! She always sends lots of pics and videos and our pup is exhausted after any time spend there since she gets to run around and play so much! You should book with Deborah for your next time out of town!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and understand that some animals need special care. I live in a quiet neighborhood with great walking paths! I work a Monday through Friday normal schedule, going into work around 6am and coming home around 3pm each day. I love going on morning, afternoon, and evening walks with my dog, Toby, and he loves to run around our backyard too. Weekends are meant for fun! Sometimes we go to the dog park or a walk through downtown. I care for them by giving them attention, sticking to a nice schedule, and understanding that every animal is different in their own, unique way. Some require more care, others are very chill like my own dog!
“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.”
“Kamela was an amazing choice for us, and the right one! She was able to accommodate our schedule with a same-day request 😱. She was VERY communicative and provide pictures, videos and updates which gave us great peace of mind that our dog was in great hands! Thoroughly pleased.”
“Cole was really great with our dog during his stay! He sent regular check ins and pictures. It really gave me peace of mind knowing he was taking such good care of my dog during his stay! I appreciate how he did my dogs favorite activities with him while I was away and spent a lot of time with him. I will definitely be using Cole for any future boarding!”
