“Steve took excellent care of Max! We haven't had the best of experiences with our dog being cared for while we are away. I am so glad we found Steve on here. He went the extra mile to help us feel at ease and we appreciated the updates!”
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!
“Douglas and Katherine were absolutely amazing! This was the first time I’ve been away from my little guy and they treated him like one of their babies! They sent pictures everyday and my little guy was so happy and comfortable! It made going on our trip so much easier! Thank you!!”

We have 4 animal loving kids as well! I work part time at a salon so my schedule is pretty flexible as long as there is advanced planning and I’ll do my best to keep your pets current schedule. I have a huge fenced in yard where our dogs can play during the day. We have a mudroom attached to the house where crates are kept. And well-behaved dogs are welcome to come inside!
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.
“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.”
“Aurora was very sweet and caring for my Luna, she took Luna in at a very short notice, and was even able to drop her off early ahead of her drop off time which helped me tremendously since I was in the process of moving. Luna was groomed and I received updated pictures of Luna. I would definitely book again in the future!”

“Had Sarah watch my 2 year old Great Dane Roscoe. She was a great sitter and will definitely be using her again when the time arises. He come home happy and healthy after his 3 night stay. Sarah is also very good at communicating and was always quick to respond when I would check up on my boy.”
“OMG! I rarely leave my service dog and rescue with anyone overnight. When I went to pick them up to go home, they did not want to leave, and even made a couple friends! Kylie is for sure my new pet sitter! This was by far one of the best pet sitters I've had in a while. She has a permanent customer now!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my dog while I was out of town! Alexis gave me so much peace of mind by sending regular updates, including lots of photos and videos. It was clear my pup was happy, well-cared for, and loved while I was away. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful pet sitter!”
“We had a great experience! They took excellent care of our dogs and kept us updated throughout their stay. We really appreciated the regular messages and the pictures they sent, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dogs came home happy and well cared for. We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet care, and we will gladly use their services again in the future!”
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:)
“This was our first time boarding our dogs and we were super nervous. Max is a German Rott and not the friendliest at first sight. It takes him a moment to get comfortable with new faces. However, he is truly a loving, loyal and protective doggie. Marley, an English Cocker Spaniel is easy to adore and just wants hugs and rubs all day. Desirae was nothing but hospitable, patient, accommodating, and professional. She continued to provide photos and updates while we were away and made sure we were comfortable. She was very aware of what they needed and following our instructions to ensure they maintained their routine. This was such a wonderful first experience and I would definitely recommend Desirea. Look no further - she is absolutely amazing!”
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.
“Ashley exceeded my expectations! She was so great with my Golden Retriever. She took care of my dog for 10 days. Ashley was communicating with me constantly, she sent me videos, pictures and messages daily letting me know how my dog was doing. I felt very safe leaving my 3 month old dog with her. When I picked my dog up, she did not want to leave??”
“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!!”
“Taylor took great care of our 7 year old Aussie. He got comfort and exercise. Taylor is a true dog lover. Unfortunately she is an hour away from us BUT worth it and close to the Indiana lake that we visit.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up around them, I learned early on that dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. Throughout my life, I’ve helped raise, nurture, and look after dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies who need patience and structure to older dogs who need gentle care and attention, I’ve always been comfortable meeting each dog’s unique needs. My experience includes feeding routines, playtime, basic reinforcement of good behaviors, and making sure dogs feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I pay close attention to a dog’s body language and personality so I can provide care that keeps them happy, calm, and engaged. Whether that means active outdoor time, mental stimulation, or simply relaxing companionship, I’m happy to adapt to what each dog enjoys most. Above all, I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and plenty of affection. My goal is always to give owners peace of mind while making sure their dogs feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm very active and love spending time outdoors. I have a large fenced yard with a doggy door. I have two large breed dogs, (Great Pyrenees and a Golden Retriever) that are very friendly! Both of my dogs are up to date on their vaccinations, including flea and tick. Dogs are allowed on furniture and the bed. I spend a lot of time with my dogs playing outside and inside. I can accommodate crate training if needed.

“I could not be happier with how our first try with Rover went! Hannah was extremely attentive and caring toward my baby Juniper, and I could not have asked for a better place for her to stay. I received several photos and even a couple videos with updates of how she was doing, which eased my mind completely. Her kids were so playful with Juniper and we will definitely be returning! Hannah exceeded the bare minimum, and even the average, of what I expected out of Rover. She even brushed and bathed Juniper, and made sure Juniper had her clothes for when she was chilly. 10/10 recommend!?”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up around them, I learned early on that dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. Throughout my life, I’ve helped raise, nurture, and look after dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies who need patience and structure to older dogs who need gentle care and attention, I’ve always been comfortable meeting each dog’s unique needs. My experience includes feeding routines, playtime, basic reinforcement of good behaviors, and making sure dogs feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I pay close attention to a dog’s body language and personality so I can provide care that keeps them happy, calm, and engaged. Whether that means active outdoor time, mental stimulation, or simply relaxing companionship, I’m happy to adapt to what each dog enjoys most. Above all, I treat every dog in my care as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and plenty of affection. My goal is always to give owners peace of mind while making sure their dogs feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm very active and love spending time outdoors. I have a large fenced yard with a doggy door. I have two large breed dogs, (Great Pyrenees and a Golden Retriever) that are very friendly! Both of my dogs are up to date on their vaccinations, including flea and tick. Dogs are allowed on furniture and the bed. I spend a lot of time with my dogs playing outside and inside. I can accommodate crate training if needed.

“Steve took excellent care of Max! We haven't had the best of experiences with our dog being cared for while we are away. I am so glad we found Steve on here. He went the extra mile to help us feel at ease and we appreciated the updates!”
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!

“Aurora was very sweet and caring for my Luna, she took Luna in at a very short notice, and was even able to drop her off early ahead of her drop off time which helped me tremendously since I was in the process of moving. Luna was groomed and I received updated pictures of Luna. I would definitely book again in the future!”

Kylie is for sure my new pet sitter! This was by far one of the best pet sitters I've had in a while. She has a permanent customer now!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my dog while I was out of town! Alexis gave me so much peace of mind by sending regular updates, including lots of photos and videos.

“This was our first time boarding our dogs and we were super nervous. Max is a German Rott and not the friendliest at first sight. It takes him a moment to get comfortable with new faces. However, he is truly a loving, loyal and protective doggie. Marley, an English Cocker Spaniel is easy to adore and just wants hugs and rubs all day. Desirae was nothing but hospitable, patient, accommodating, and professional. She continued to provide photos and updates while we were away and made sure we were comfortable. She was very aware of what they needed and following our instructions to ensure they maintained their routine. This was such a wonderful first experience and I would definitely recommend Desirea. Look no further - she is absolutely amazing!”
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.
“Ashley exceeded my expectations! She was so great with my Golden Retriever. She took care of my dog for 10 days. Ashley was communicating with me constantly, she sent me videos, pictures and messages daily letting me know how my dog was doing. I felt very safe leaving my 3 month old dog with her. When I picked my dog up, she did not want to leave??”
“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!!”
“Taylor took great care of our 7 year old Aussie. He got comfort and exercise. Taylor is a true dog lover. Unfortunately she is an hour away from us BUT worth it and close to the Indiana lake that we visit.”
About: I’m obsessed with fur babies! Let me watch yours so I can be happy 24/7. Former puppy owner do I know how crazy that it. Very experienced as I’ve always loved with animals. Very open availability because my day job allows me to choose my own schedule. And I’m very flexible and willing to accommodate to your needs. Right now I can only do house/pet sitting at your place because I do have roommates. I’m not entirely confident he have someone else’s pets around them for reliability issues.
