“Alivia did a wonderful job with our dog Willow. She let Willow outside to play with her family’s own dog, and other dogs she was boarding. She kept in touch with us by sending pictures, videos, etc. I will definitely use her services again.”


“Our dog, Jack, was treated like a part of the family. He was energized and happy when we picked him up. I could tell he missed Lynana's children and her dog. Indy. I feel fortunate to have found her thru Rover. I strongly recommend her.”

“Such a great feeling to be able to travel and know my girl is loved and safe. Amanda and her family are excellent sitters, great communicators, and go the extra mile to reassure you your pet is being well cared for. Highly recommend.”

“Raechel was amazing! She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and did a ton of exercise with our dog. She was also very accommodating when we ran late and adjusted our drop off and pick up times. We would definitely use her again. Very conveniently located near the Ford Center as we were in town for a concert.”

“Our pup was so well taken care of! We felt very comfortable knowing she was in good hands while we were out of town. Deb and family looked after our dog as if she was their own. Highly recommend!”

“Great experience! My pup had never been away from me overnight so I was a bit nervous but Joshua made it very comfortable and flexible. With Jinks only being 5mo/old I was interested to see how we would do but he seemed extremely happy (and tired from playing:) when I picked him up. Definitely recommend!!”

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and grew up caring for them, including four cats throughout my life.( til I recently moved here to Indiana-do not have any pets currently)I currently have three cats back home in Maryland, so I have plenty of hands-on experience with daily care, routines, and personalities. I also understand that cats can be very timid, especially with new people, and I’ve always had a calm, patient personality that allows them to warm up to me at their own pace. I’ve also cared for friends’ and family’s cats while they were away, making sure they were fed, comfortable, and well looked after.
About: I have pet sit for people since I have been about 13, I am now almost 20! I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. I have watched all kinds of animals, even a pig! I am a busy girl, but I love to spend any time I can with animals! I would love to take dogs on walks during the day or nights. I also stay with your dogs for vacations, work trips, etc. aslong as I’m not away for basketball. I would mainly watch dogs in my clients home. Stay the night with them, feed them, and take them on walks. I also love to have playtime with them if they’re up for it, but if not I love to cuddle and give them lots of lovins!
About: I have watched beloved family pets for many friends and family during my life time. Being an animal lover myself, I know that your pets are family and I make sure to treat them as such! Growing up with family dogs and cats, and currently our funky boxer dog Rufus, I know what it takes to be a successful animal sitter and how much love they need. I work a full time job, from 9-4:30 pm Monday-Friday with the exception of one remote day on Wednesdays. Most pets are used to this schedule. I will ensure they will have potty breaks first thing in the morning, during my lunch break at 1, and then once I return to the home at 5. And then several throughout the evening and before bed. I will care for your pet in the environment they feel the safest in… your home. By allowing your animal to remain at home, it eases their stress and anxiety and gives them a comforting feel of familiarity. No need to pack up enough food and treats for the week. I will be happy to follow your thorough instructions on how to care for your pet.
“Irelane did an amazing job caring for my cats, and they loved her! Even my shy tortie who usually hides around new people came out and wanted to play. Irelane communicated well and went above and beyond, even took in a package and vacuumed up litter that my cats kicked on the carpet. Will definitely be booking again!”

“Ellie was fantastic with my kitty. All visits were done timely and well. She’s a great caregiver and my kitty liked her. She sent photos and videos each visit. I’ll re-book Ellie again.”

“Evelyn/Evie did a great job taking care of my 3 cats while I was out of town for 8 days. She even managed to get Gandalf's daily steroid medication down! She sent frequent pictures and videos of them including when Mimi and Gandalf would sit on her lap in the recliner. I highly recommend Evie to pet sit your furry companions.”
“Jennifer did a good job taking care of my cat, Sasha. She did everything I asked, and more. She fed, watered and took care of the litter box on a daily basis and brushed her, as well. Sasha looked good and seemed fine when I returned from my 12 day trip. I will be calling her again when my next trip comes up.”

About: I bathe the dogs, water/feed, play/go on walk or running, take them outside to use the bathroom after they get done eating there supper. If they need medicine before or after eating there meal, I can do that because I had to do it with my German Shepherd once. Animals give me pride, joy, and make me feel special inside and stress is gone. Animals should be treated like a family member in your home. Currently this is my only income along with uber eats. This fits my schedule between my daughter going to school even then I have a babysitter. I will make sure that fences are shut, doors are shut as well as making sure theres no holes in the fences for them to squeeze through.
About: I’ve had animals my whole life from cats and dogs, to horses and cows, even snakes and scorpions! Animals are a passion of mine and there’s not much I love more! I work part time and from home so I have plenty of free time to take care of your four legged babies! I look forward to meeting them:) I will be very respectful of your home and clean up after myself and your babies, whether it be inside, outside or in a kennel, I will follow instructions as directed!

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes for neighbors, friends, and family while they were away for days at a time. I really enjoy making pets feel comfortable and cared for through walks, feeding, playtime, and attention, and I’ve also helped with daycare and grooming pick-ups and drop-offs. I’m currently not working, so I have a very open and flexible schedule to provide pet care full-time. I don’t have children or pets of my own right now, which allows me to dedicate my full attention and care to the pets I’m watching. I’m available for a variety of needs, including walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. I do not have a fenced-in yard, and I live in a quiet private home/villa in a safe neighborhood. All outdoor time is always supervised and on leash to ensure pets are safe at all times. I provide a calm, structured environment and closely follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions from owners so they feel comfortable and cared for like home. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with consistent attention, patience, and care throughout their stay.
