Personalized care for your dog or cat - New Paris

Highly-rated overnight sitters - New Paris
“We had a great experience with Alejandra! She sent daily photos, videos, and updates, so we always knew how Benji was doing. We would definitely book with her again!”

“Jennifer was very accommodating & we made a last minute booking & got the meet in greet in to make sure her doggies & ours was compatible. She welcomed us with open arms & let our dog check things out & then meet her doggie. Our dog felt comfortable & so did I & the doggies had the same energy level as ours is a boxer. Well they played & played. Loved the picture updates & video. They loved our dog like their own. She could sit on the couch with them & even sat on their laps. The fence in yard makes you feel at ease & took daily walks. We will be back. Thanks for loving our doggie & making it a stress free time away.”

“Lanae was wonderful to our pup. She was willing to take him last minute, which saved us from missing our vacation. She took the time to update us regularly, and responded to any question I had promptly. She gave him all the love and attention he requires and I’m very grateful for that. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”

“Leandra and Mark did an amazing job with our puppy. They are so personal with clients. They took such good care of our baby. I definitely will book again. Their availability is great especially for a puppy. They love playing with the puppy. They treated our puppy like he was their own. I look forward to them watching him again soon!”

“Christina is wonderful. Nothing fazes her. We left our 13 year old mostly deaf, partially blind and very demanding King Charles spaniel with her for two weeks and she had no trouble at all. We had never boarded him before, so we were really happy to see photos of him running around her back yard and interacting with Christina’s dog and others. So good for him. Highly recommend!”

“Hope felt very comfortable with Katelin even before I left! Katelin sent lots of photos of Hope’s time with her and all the other doggos, and it was obvious Hope was possibly having an even better time than I was on my trip! 😂 I will absolutely have Hope stay with her again if needed in the future.”

“Mia seemed happy and well when we picked her up. Josie was very friendly and has the perfect set-up for any dogs that are staying there. Lots of room to run in the backyard. She was very sweet with Mia. I would definitely recommend her.”

I’ve much experience with bully breeds and non bully breeds. I understand and recognize behaviors and what they mean. I guarantee your pet will be safe with me. Safe, happy and loved!!!
“I am so happy to have found Betty to care for my sweet fur baby Bella. Bella is a 12 pound Rat Terrier and does not like to travel so It has always been very hard to plan trips with her. It breaks my heart to have to leave her behind so finding someone to care for her was very important and had to have a love for dogs. When I met with Betty before I decided to book her service, I had no questions that she would be the one to care for my dog. She has adorable dogs of her own and it made me happy to know that my dog would have others to play with her. I highly recommend Betty. Linda”


“Lynn is an absolute Godsend! She provided me multiple updates daily including photos. She offered food and health recommendations as well as resources to review and research. Lynn pampered and spoiled ChiChi during our nearly weeklong vacation. I would trust her with my own life, not just my dog’s life. She’s that darn good! I will only use her from now on and recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter!! Thank you again Lynn!!! 🫶🏼”

“I am so happy with Andrew. He has taken great care of my Einstein. It’s not easy sometimes with an 80# puppy with no manners!! I will definitely use him again.”

“Faith and her Family are great! I’ve felt so comfortable leaving my fur babies with them! The photos and videos I got daily showed how much they enjoyed and cared for them while they were there. I will definitely keep faith as my go to when I need a pup sitter!”

“Paul and Kelly (and kids) did a great job caring for our puppies. When we arrived for pickup, our puppies were happy and energetic. Paul and Kelly were very receptive to following our dogs’ schedules. We will definitely take them back to Paul, Kelly and the kids!”

“Lyndsey and her family took great care of our Lilly for our long weekend away. We were sent daily updates with photos and a couple videos too. Lilly had such a great time we are definitely going to be booking her next stay ASAP”

“Tiffani was great to work with! She was very responsive and flexible when we had to adjust our pick up time. Our dog was exhausted (in a good way!) when we picked him up. You can tell she really cares about the dogs she watches.”

“Lindsay is the absolute best! It was our first time leaving our pup with someone for a long weekend. Safe to say he didn’t even miss us and had the time of his life playing at Lindsay’s house. She was super communicative about drop-off and pick-up and gave us updates everyday along with plenty of pictures and videos. Thank you Lindsay! We will be back!”

“Victoria took really good care of Beans, kept me updated and always responded to my messages quickly. She was kind and had a great environment for pups. She took her for walks and let her sleep with her in the bed. Beans had a great time there!”

“Hanna is awesome! I am glad she has been there for me all of this time, and will miss her when she moves. Anyone who needs someone to look after their babies near her new home would be more than pleased with her responsiveness and understanding. Thanks Hanna for all you’ve done!”


“Once again Alyssa provided amazing care for our pets! She provides a detailed report of her time with our pets, plenty of pictures, and communicates with us prior to us leaving. We will continue to use her every time we go on vacation because we know our pets are well cared for.”


“Blair was perfect for our needs. Our dog is very skittish with unknown people and never does well in a kennel. She came and met with him while we were home to get aquatinted with him. She took care of him for the two days we needed and he was perfectly fine and relaxed when we came home. Will definitely use her again. Thank You Blair!”


“Christy cared for Cookie and always updated me on how my cat was doing....it was great peace of mind for me. Christy even brought to my attention when there were concerns about too much self scratching going on. I will have Christy pet sit for me from here on out!”


About: I have been around cats since I was younger. I have 1 cat at our house and she is a feisty girl, her name is Cookie. I am much more a dog person but cats need love too! I do love on a rainy day when Cookie cuddles up to me while I read or nap! I am comfortable with a variety of needs a cat may require. I have house sat for various cats and have enjoyed interacting with them!

“Raquel was wonderful!! Our shy cat actually let her pet her on the first meeting, so that’s all I need to know to rebook her for our next trip. Communication was top notch and she sent plenty of photos which always makes us feel at ease when we’re away from our baby. Water was full and litter box was clean when we got back home. We were booking for a very last minute trip and she responded faster than anyone I messaged. Super glad we met her, I’m sure our cat will be happy to see her again!”
“I really appreciate Devin’s availability and willingness to respond to me when I blew up her phone ;) I literally could not find a pet sitter in this area that would respond to me. I have a lot of anxiety about leaving my dogs, and so it was nice to have someone who responded so quickly. (On a semi-unrelated note to pet sitting, she also took really cute pictures of my dogs which was helpful to my daughter while we were gone).”


About: Caring for cats has been a passion of mine since I was as little as eight. From kittens to elders, long-hairs to short, I've taken care of them all! There is no part of cat care that I dislike and I would love to spend time with your fur babies.

“My cat had a rough time adjusting at first and she was so patient with him as he was settling in! After he adjusted he loved being there, and I love the pictures I got from Anna from his stay! If I ever need someone to watch him again I will definitely be going to Anna!”


About: As a current cat parent myself, I appreciate when I know my cat is in good hands. This not only relieves my stress, but his as well. I can return to preparing for my trip, meeting, or holiday prep worry-free. I have firsthand experience placing my pet's care into another's hands. It took so much much trial, error, and good luck before I settled on a small roster of people who look out for my baby just as well as I can. People who would do whatever was necessary for making sure my pet's health and happiness was respected and nurtured. I've also nurtured many types of animals as they were sick, healthy, hurt, anxious, etc. I've also housesat, catsat, and dogsat for a number of people in Indianapolis, just in this year alone. Medications, anxiety, shyness, distrust, to name a few, are not foreign concepts in my cat care. I've experienced them in caring for my own little ginger boy, cats from my past, and cats I've recently catsat for. None of those things deter me from making sure your cat receives optimal care, respect, and attention. ?? Being a total free-spirit, I currently possess a large amount of flexibility and an open calendar. Especially around those family holidays. I can offer what few others can in this moment, time, intentionality and availability in pet care.
“Amber was great with my cat and turtle. She was very communicative and messaged quickly with any questions or concerns. I came home to very happy little girls! Will definitely work with her again!”

About: I am currently unavailable until April 8th, 2020 due to a study service trip with Goshen College. Feel free to contact me, but know you will not receive a response until April 8th. Thank you for understanding. I have no professional experience with dog care, however I have cared for numerous pets over the last 15 years of my life (I'm 21 now) and have loved every bit of it. I am looking to get some extra cash by doing something I love while in college. I love taking dogs to the park to play for hours and then snuggling up with them later because they are so tired. It's my favorite thing to do is tire a dog out so much that all it does is want to sleep later (kind of like a kid, haha). Really just looking for an excuse to spend time with animals. Professionally speaking, I am a student in college studying Sociology and Psychology. I am a part time lifeguard/supervisor, a swim coach, and part time data and research assistant at a local nonprofit organization. I anticipate a Spring 2020 graduation
About: I worked with dogs and cats for the past 6 years at a kennel and a rescue. I have one cat of my own and love dogs so much! I’ve watched family friends pets on occasion as well! I am on the hunt for a part time job so I’m pretty available as of right now and I’m look forward to spending time with your pets! I will monitor your pet on potty breaks and be observant during walks! I will follow whatever rules you have set in your home/for your pet!

Perfect for high energy dogs - New Paris
“I can’t say how impressed I am with Tammie. I was visiting family and am from Iowa, Tammie was more then accommodating and welcoming. I could tell she likes what she does and cares about her canine clients. Her home is set up for the dogs and, even with multiple dogs, stays clean. My Corgi was comfortable right way. I used Tammies daycare twice, the second time my Corgi couldn’t wait to get in the door. I will be using Tammie services whenever I visit, no question about it!”

“Our pups are always well taken care of! We have used Jennifer and Larry multiple times and can drop our dogs off knowing they are in great hands. Highly recommend!”

“She was wonderful with Cliff!! He’s always so excited to see his friends! She sends lots of pictures throughout the day too, which I love! He’s always having so much fun!”

“Anna was great to work with. We're new to Rover and she answered any questions and was very accommodating to our needs for the day care. We're from out of town and using Rover and Anna made our stay easy for times during the day when our dog could not be with us. We would definitely use Anna when back in the area.”

“Betty is a nice, reliable, experienced caretaker that gives the best care to the dog. My dog Dobby had a very enjoyable afternoon with Betty and her dogs in the big backyard. She also takes lots of pics for update, I would definitely recommend Betty to everyone.”

“Josie has been responsive and is very kind and provided a lot of reassurance my first time leaving Winston for the day. He enjoyed playing and being outdoors running around the backyard. He comes home tired and is always happy and excited to see Josie.”

About: I grew up with cats & dogs. We always had at least two in our house as kids and I've owned lots and lots of pets with human names. Since I’m a teacher I am available all summer long. I am an early riser and can accommodate all times you may need for your pets My pets get walked four times a day and seem to be my mode of exercise. I can accommodate early and late hours in particular.
About: I grew up helping out on my friends parents farm. After we moved away my family signed up to foster for the humane society and my love for animals only grew. I’ve helped deliver and care for puppies and kittens. I now have 2 daughters of my own that love animals just as much as I do and our favorite thing to do is go to the humane society to play with the pups and cats 💕 I run my own business and work from home. Both my girls are in school so I have a lot of free time I’d love to use on with helping some furbabies 💕 I live in an apartment right of the millrace so we love walls on the trail! We also love going to the dog park here in goshen because it’s always empty. I will make sure your furbaby is very well cared for in the time they are with me 💕
“Lindsay was GREAT! We felt so comfortable leaving our pup with her and got photos throughout the day of her having lots of fun! She was super flexible with our timing for the day when plans changed, and even sent us home with an adorable goody bag. Will definitely be using her again! 12/10 recommend.”
About: New to Rover.com but 10+ years of fostering over 400 babies for local shelters. They were all spoiled by the time they were ready for adoption. (No apologies for that 🙃) Your pet will be well cared for/spoiled while they visit! I can take two dogs, for the safety of your pet(s) and mine, only if they are from the same household. Love animals and miss fostering I did while in California. Your family member will be in caring hands who has years of experience with puppies and kittens who needed medication. I’m retired and have all the time in the world. 🤭 I still foster and mark my calendar as unavailable when I have foster babies. You can always ask if there is room for one more. 😉 New home with half acre fenced yard. Have a very active border collie who wants a playmate. My animals have always had the run of the house but I can provide a crate if need be. If you need an extended period of time, let me know. My last foster was 6 months old, from a local shelter and was here for over 2 months.

“I’ve been bringing my dog, Mykonos, to Lynn for daycare, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provides. Every morning, he gets so excited to go back, which says everything about how comfortable and happy he feels with her. He comes home calm and content, showing no signs of stress or anxiety. It gives me real peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. Lynn clearly cares deeply for the dogs she looks after, and I’m grateful for the warm, safe environment she provides.”

About: I grew up with an Australian Shepherd Blue Heeler mix and loved teaching him new tricks, going for walks, and playing enriching games that helped get his energy out. My parents added a Chiweenie to the family a couple years ago, so now when I visit, I love to walk them both! I often dog/house sit for my parents; being in their home environment seems to be most comfortable for them. Aside from dogs, I graduated from IU Bloomington in 2021, and have switched careers to work for a local school system. I am looking for something fun, active, and outdoors for the summer - what better activity than dog walking?! I cannot wait to connect and meet your furry family! I have the summer off to help care for your pups! My current schedule is open and flexible - I can be available almost any time with some notice. Send me a message and I will get back to you ASAP! I will ensure to adhere to any dog schedules/routines, send regular photo/text updates upon client request, and care for your dogs like my own. I will do everything in my power to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. You can expect frequent and thorough communication - don’t be afraid to leave detailed lists/notes of exactly how you want your dog cared for. I will do my best to mimic how you care for your pet to ease any distress and make your absence as enjoyable as possible for them.
About: Hi there!! I love both dogs and cats, and look forward to taking care of them. I've had many pets growing up. Habló Español también. As of right now I am available and flexible on time as school is out. I have been trying to find a second job, and would much rather prefer this to be my 2nd job as I enjoy going on runs with my dog and hanging out with my furbabies (I also have 2 cats). Why not make money while having fun and meeting new furbabies? I live near downtown Elkhart (heading towards Bristol). I live in a very safe and quiet neighborhood where there is plenty of space to walk, run, and enjoy a large field of grass (if allowed to be off leash).
“Flexible and an understanding caregiver for our active poodle. We were visiting out of state and Sonny was able to accommodate us last minute. Sonny sent us photos, videos, and updates through-out the day, which helped my family be more at ease. We will be using Sonny’s services when we visit next time.”
About: Hello! I’m Valeria (you can call me Val) and I am a part time pet sitter. I currently work full time remotely. I enjoy running/walking at the park so having a partner tag along won’t be a problem. I am willing to provide any extra care your dog may need. This includes providing snacks, preparing specific meals, or even spending extra time outside. I have experience handling dogs, cats, birds, small animals and even chickens! I don’t have experience with senior dogs or giving injections/oral medication but I am willing to learn and will provide the best service for your babies needs. Feel free to message me for your specific needs or if you have any questions. Thanks! I usually let clients know my availability and advice on how I will structure my schedule to best accommodate their pets needs. During weekdays my availability is flexible because I work from home. I like to tour homes to be aware of exits/entrances, restricted areas (if there are any), and exchange contact info in case of an emergency.
“Once again, Jamie took great care of my min pin doggie! He is so comfortable with her, and her dog is very hospitable too. I will always call Jamie whenever I am in South Bend!”

“Andrew and his dog, James, are great! LiLi went over for the day yesterday and when James dropped her off back home, at the end of the day, she stood by the door until she was sure he wasn’t outside anymore. I love knowing she’s happy when I’m at work!”

About: I've taken care of pets since I can remember. This past year I have started dog sitting for friends and family and they have trusted me to care for their animals like I would for my own. I am currently working part-time and am enrolled in college, doing mostly online work. I am able to work around my work schedule and leave periodically if needed to care for a pet. I make sure to have lots of outside time with my own pets. We play fetch and go on walks daily. I have a fenced in yard to make sure my pets are safe.
About: I don't remember a time when I didn't have a dog in my life! I grew up with dogs and have been involved with dogs since I was little. I have owned and interacted with a variety of breeds. I grew up helping my grandfather train horses and my grandmother train service dogs. So the love of animals is instilled in me! I am very comfortable around a variety of dog breeds and personalities! I have 5 dogs( 2 senior girls and 3 active ladies)! I own 2 Mudi which is a Hungarian herding breed. I actively show and compete with them in AKC and UKC events. I also own a cat! She is a feisty gal who is very opinionated! I am a medical assistant and with that comes the confidence to handle medical issues or requirements your pet may need! I am comfortable providing medication or medical care that a vet has prescribed to your pet! I have also completed a cat and dog first aid/CPR course through the Red Cross! I look forward to getting to know you and your pets! I am a stay at home mom which allows me to adjust my schedule to fit the needs of you and your pets! My family members will not be helping with pet care. I can't do visits until 8am due to kids schedules. I am currently unable to stay over night in your home. I can stop by your house 3-4 times a day depending on pet needs but I can’t sleep at your home. I would provide high quality, loving care on a schedule to help maintain your pets comfort. Safety of your pet is my top priority closely followed by their comfort. I want to get to know each of your pets like they are my own. I want your pet to enjoy me and much as I will enjoy them! If your pet comes to my house for day care I do require them to be create trained. Occasionally I must leave my house for no longer than 2 hours. My pets get created if I am away as that keeps them safe! I do have a security camera I would keep on your pet if I must step away. I have also completed a cat and dog first aid/CPR course through the Red Cross!
About: Head out of town with the confidence that you furry one will enjoy excellent care. Our golden doodle loves to welcome guests. And our teenage son is here to take your dog on walks (we’re just off the Goshen millrace), play fetch in our back yard, and generally lavish attention on them. We offer seasonal times mostly. This is focused around times when our son is off school in order to give constant care. The adults also have flexible work schedules ensuring plenty of support for the rhythms of pet care. We keep a tidy home where your pet can relax and play. We make every effort to maintain the rhythms (exercise, feeding, etc) that your pet is accustomed to.

About: I’m a registered nurse who has owned dogs my whole life and has previously worked at a dog kennel. I love dogs and can assure your pets will be safe with me! My schedule is currently wide open. I would prefer a normal 9-5 workday, however I can be flexible. With enough notice I have no problems making time for your fur babies! I understand how important routine is to pets and promise to follow any instructions given. Pets function better and live more stress free lives when they run on their daily routine.

About: I’ve taken care of family friends pets and neighbors pets over the years including cats and dogs. I have 5 dogs and 1 cat of my own. I have always had dogs growing up and we also had cats over the years as well! I have 5 dogs and 1 foster cat of my own! My typical day is pretty open at this time as I do not have a full time job, I spend most of my days with my pets and house cleaning! Due to me having 5 dogs I do not offer watching in my home, but I’m more than willing to do drop in visits, walks, or even overnight stays in your home!
About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to really get to know them and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have experience working with goats, cats, dogs and lizards, chickens and even horses, along with senior pets. I’m patient and consistent when it comes to basic training, potty routines, exercising and helping reinforce good habits. I know how important that is, so I focus on structure, positive reinforcement, and lots of encouragement. For senior pets, I have lots of experience in administering medication, and sticking closely to their routine, or providing extra attention and care. Reliability and communication are very important to me. I make sure you stay updated with messages, photos, and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make your pet feel happy, secure, and cared for every step of the way. I’m currently working part-time and remote, so I have plenty of flexibility to help others take care of their fur baby. You can count on me! I provide a safe, loving environment. I currently have a 4-year-old Bernedoodle who is everything to me. I grew up surrounded by animals and have always had a strong love for them. Over the years, I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors by dropping in to care for their pets, feeding them, spending quality time with them, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I make it a priority to follow each pet’s routine closely, give them plenty of attention, and create a calm, safe environment where they feel at home. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family
About: Within the past couple years I started my own small business in pet transportation. I received licensing from the USDA and am knowledgeable in best practices in caring for pets while their families are away. I truly believe that our pets are our family and will aim to make your pets feel loved and well-cared for while you’re away. Beyond my own pets, transporting gave me experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I do have references to attest for the high standard of care I will provide. I am no longer transporting pets due to being away from my family (pets and humans) for extended periods of time. Recently I have become a stay at home mom, but really miss all the extra animals I got to love on. My availability is pretty flexible throughout the week now and I’m excited to meet your furry family members! I am available to care for your pet in your home or through walking. I will accept puppies/young dogs for boarding and doggy daycare in my home as I have my own large dogs, who are friendly, but intimidated by other large dogs. This can include feeding, administering medicine, walking, play time, crating, etc. I will always aim to stick to you and your pet’s schedule. I have a couple of years of experience in a vet office, initially attending college for veterinary medicine.
About: I brought home my first puppy of my own, Tucker, almost 2 years ago! He is my very best bud and I work diligently to make sure I’m raising him right! I love dogs of all sizes and love getting to spend time with them. I’ve attend quite a few dog training sessions to be prepared for certain situations! I’d love to help take care of your pup while you’re away! I work 8-3, but I let my dog out during my lunch break everyday! Your pup won’t be kept inside for more than 4 hours at a time. Once I’m home, I spend lots of time walking my dog or playing outside in the backyard! After doing a meet & greet, I am perfectly comfortable coming to your house to watch over your pups for you! If you would like me to keep them at my house, I would like to do a meet and greet with my own pup to make sure both of them feel comfortable with each other! I have a fenced in backyard and way too many toys!
About: I worked with dogs and cats for the past 6 years at a kennel and a rescue. I have one cat of my own and love dogs so much! I’ve watched family friends pets on occasion as well! I am on the hunt for a part time job so I’m pretty available as of right now and I’m look forward to spending time with your pets!

About: I can't help but attempt to nurture every animal I come across, from a baby squirrel to adopting my former streetcat (Iroh). In addition to housesitting, catsittting, and dogsitting for a number of people in Indianapolis, just in this past year alone, I've also taken upon the responsibility of self-fostering 3 kittens. Recently, I finished 5 months of bathing/grooming training experience through Petco. This past experience has taught me the importance of pet safety and taught me much about dog care and health, from regular bathing to nutrition. I've taken care of several different species of pets in the past 15 years, including several in/outdoor cats, a rabbit, two hamsters, a chameleon, and a former family Labrador Retriever. Since I was young, I've had a large amount of compassion and consideration for all living critters and creatures. I now spend much my time commiting to reading and research about dogs, cats, and other animals. My experience, multiple-species expertise, and unconditional care creates a space where your pet is not only looked after, but loved on. Being a total free-spirit, I currently possess a large amount of flexibility and an open calendar. Especially around those family holidays. I can offer what few others can in this moment, time, intentionality and availability in pet care. 🗓️✨ As a current cat parent myself, I appreciate when I know my cat is in good hands. This not only relieves my stress, but his as well. I can return to preparing for my trip, meeting, or holiday prep worry-free. I have firsthand experience placing my pet's care into another's hands. It took so much much trial, error, and good luck before I settled on a small roster of people who look out for my baby just as well as I can. My fur child deserves to be just as safe and comfortable in his living arrangements as I am in mine, no matter where I am. Finding that type of care is no small feat either. Assuaging my worries (and his) on top of everything else that traveling demands, can really be the cherry on the top of my stress-out sundae. If you resonate with some of these concerns, then I may be the pet sitter for you. I will read the list of your special care instructions AND follow through on their necessities to soothe your nerves and those of your pet. Given the opportunity, I'd love to be a companion they can count on for meals, play/fun times, walks, and any other special activities you share with your little one. Meanwhile, allowing you to relax and lean into your confidence that your pet is in great hands. So, let me do what is necessary to remedy, not only your anxiety, but your pet's as well. I'd love to be the person for you and your companion. 🤓📝
About: I’ve always been asked to take care of animals by friends and family. I’ve always been asked to pet sit due to my love for animals and my ability to love them as my own. I’m currently working part time and am taking college classes online at Western Governors University! I enjoy the flexibility of pet sitting and how well it works with my schedule and how I also get to build bonds with animals! Fenced in yard with two cats. We do not accept animals that have no experience with cats/ dogs not get along with cats. We also require meet and greets to provide the best care for your animals make sure our home is a good fit.

About: I am currently unavailable until April 8th, 2020 due to a study service trip with Goshen College. Feel free to contact me, but know you will not receive a response until April 8th. Thank you for understanding. I have no professional experience with dog care, however I have cared for numerous pets over the last 15 years of my life (I'm 21 now) and have loved every bit of it. I am looking to get some extra cash by doing something I love while in college. I love taking dogs to the park to play for hours and then snuggling up with them later because they are so tired. It's my favorite thing to do is tire a dog out so much that all it does is want to sleep later (kind of like a kid, haha). Really just looking for an excuse to spend time with animals. Professionally speaking, I am a student in college studying Sociology and Psychology. I am a part time lifeguard/supervisor, a swim coach, and part time data and research assistant at a local nonprofit organization. I anticipate a Spring 2020 graduation
About: I grew up with cats & dogs. We always had at least two in our house as kids and I've owned lots and lots of pets with human names. Since I’m a teacher I am available all summer long. I am an early riser and can accommodate all times you may need for your pets My pets get walked four times a day and seem to be my mode of exercise. I can accommodate early and late hours in particular.

“We had a great experience with Alejandra! She sent daily photos, videos, and updates, so we always knew how Benji was doing. We would definitely book with her again!”

“Jennifer was very accommodating & we made a last minute booking & got the meet in greet in to make sure her doggies & ours was compatible. She welcomed us with open arms & let our dog check things out & then meet her doggie. Our dog felt comfortable & so did I & the doggies had the same energy level as ours is a boxer. Well they played & played. Loved the picture updates & video. They loved our dog like their own. She could sit on the couch with them & even sat on their laps. The fence in yard makes you feel at ease & took daily walks. We will be back. Thanks for loving our doggie & making it a stress free time away.”

“Lanae was wonderful to our pup. She was willing to take him last minute, which saved us from missing our vacation. She took the time to update us regularly, and responded to any question I had promptly. She gave him all the love and attention he requires and I’m very grateful for that. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”

“Leandra and Mark did an amazing job with our puppy. They are so personal with clients. They took such good care of our baby. I definitely will book again. Their availability is great especially for a puppy. They love playing with the puppy. They treated our puppy like he was their own. I look forward to them watching him again soon!”

“Christina is wonderful. Nothing fazes her. We left our 13 year old mostly deaf, partially blind and very demanding King Charles spaniel with her for two weeks and she had no trouble at all. We had never boarded him before, so we were really happy to see photos of him running around her back yard and interacting with Christina’s dog and others. So good for him. Highly recommend!”

“Hope felt very comfortable with Katelin even before I left! Katelin sent lots of photos of Hope’s time with her and all the other doggos, and it was obvious Hope was possibly having an even better time than I was on my trip! 😂 I will absolutely have Hope stay with her again if needed in the future.”

“I am so happy with Andrew. He has taken great care of my Einstein. It’s not easy sometimes with an 80# puppy with no manners!! I will definitely use him again.”

“Paul and Kelly (and kids) did a great job caring for our puppies. When we arrived for pickup, our puppies were happy and energetic. Paul and Kelly were very receptive to following our dogs’ schedules. We will definitely take them back to Paul, Kelly and the kids!”

“Lyndsey and her family took great care of our Lilly for our long weekend away. We were sent daily updates with photos and a couple videos too. Lilly had such a great time we are definitely going to be booking her next stay ASAP”

“Tiffani was great to work with! She was very responsive and flexible when we had to adjust our pick up time. Our dog was exhausted (in a good way!) when we picked him up. You can tell she really cares about the dogs she watches.”

“Lindsay is the absolute best! It was our first time leaving our pup with someone for a long weekend. Safe to say he didn’t even miss us and had the time of his life playing at Lindsay’s house. She was super communicative about drop-off and pick-up and gave us updates everyday along with plenty of pictures and videos. Thank you Lindsay! We will be back!”

“Thanks so much, Emily & Ryan! We appreciated all the picture updates, and Calvin obviously had a wonderful time. You guys were always quick to respond, helpful, and flexible. We hope to book again in future.”


“Kim and her whole family took amazing care of Pulcinella and Steve! She kept me up to date of their activities with lots of pictures. The boys had an amazing visit!”

“Kevin and his wife Piper took exceptional care of my golden retriever, Point! From start to finish, I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such great hands. They went above and beyond by sending plenty of pictures, which really showed how comfortable and happy Point was during his stay, it meant so much to see him having such a great time. It’s clear they truly care about the dogs they watch and treat them like their own. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I will most definitely be having them watch Point again. Highly recommend!”


“Pam was great! This was the first time I had ever left my Toby with anyone. She sent me pics and updated me as I asked for them with no hesitation. Made me feel so much more comfortable. Will definitely use Pam again and would recommend her to anyone.”

“Emily was amazing! Gigi had the best time with Emily and her other pups while I was out of town. I appreciated how communicative Emily was during Gigi’s stay, especially because she sent so many pictures and videos of Gigi. I was so happy with how much fun Gigi was having. I’ll definitely book her again!”

“Cinthia did an amazing job caring for my cats! she immediately communicated with me about how they were adjusting, sent photos, and was very friendly and easygoing when I reached out on short notice. My cats loved her and her kids!”
