“Rayann really went above and beyond this time. My flight back was cancelled. Rayann was wonderful about keeping my baby safe and happy. She seems to have a way with animals, at least my dog is always happy when he comes back from her place! Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
“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.”
“Our 1 y/o charcoal lab Maverick recently stayed with Sarah and her family for an overnight boarding and cannot say enough good things about this first experience using her. I was very apprehensive, as we'd never used Rover or boarded our dog before, but Sarah and her family made me feel very at ease and were so extremely understanding when we were hours late picking him up due to weather as we were traveling back from our out of state trip. She was wonderful with keeping me up to date on his behavior and how he was handling the stay and sent numerous photos and videos while we were away. 10/10 experience!”
“Nora was great with Stevie, and we will definitely be using her services again! She was very communicative, and you can tell she really loves dogs. Stevie had so much fun playing with Scarlet and another pup in her care. Thanks 😊”
About: I have been taking care of all sorts of animal companions for 20 years! I worked on a Farmed Animal sanctuary and took care of chickens, goats, turkeys, cows, and pigs. I have had cats and dogs my whole life and specialize in both senior care and puppies. I’m great at training pups and love to be active. If your dog needs a good hike, I’m your guy! I’m currently working the early morning shift and have plenty of time after work to care for your babies. I also have weekends off so go on that day trip you always wanted to and leave it to me. My dogs are my children. I take them hiking, swimming, walking, and/or to the dog park at least once a day. I’m just starting out as a personal trainer so if your dog needs a jog around the block I can do that.
“Becky was absolutely awesome with Xander. He was so happy. He made a new friend too. She asked all relevant questions to cover all basis. Sent lots of pictures and videos. I will definitely be going back her and even start setting up play sessions with her”
“Mariah was an excellent sitter for our girl Millie. She sent us lots of pictures, and Millie looked so happy and cared for. She got lots of walks and hikes, as well as indoor playtime with doggy games and puzzles. She was also generously flexible with our pickup time. We are extremely satisfied and will definitely be booking with Mariah again!”
About: From day 1 I have been the BIGGEST dog lover 🐶🥰 From having some of my own, to taking care of my friends and family’s dog, to play dates with other family pets. I absolutely adore having a built in best friend at your ankles day to day and always there to snuggle and play. What a dream to be able to care for other peoples babies! They will be well taken care of 🐾 I currently work just part time. I’m available on weekends currently, Mondays & Thursdays all day! My other days I can walk your pup after 5 🥰 We live in the country! Lots of room for running and our dog to play with as a companion. Willing to help fit your pups needs. Plenty of walking available around us as well.
“Trista did an amazing job with our girls again. She sent us updates and pictures throughout their stay with her and was open to our concerns about one of our girls.”
“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.”
About: Hello! My name is Savannah and I am a postdoctoral researcher in the biology department at IU. I have experience caring for all kinds of animals (dogs, cats, reptiles, fish and more). I have experience with small and large dogs, hyperactive/nervous dogs, as well as senior dogs so you can be assured that I know how to handle just about any dog personality. I am very responsible, considerate and dedicated to making sure your pets are happy and healthy. I consider it an honor to be welcomed into your pet’s life and take my job very seriously. Please feel welcome to ask me any and all questions you might have. Thank you so much for considering me! I cannot wait to hear from you and your pet! I have fairly flexible working hours as I largely can make my own schedule. I am available during the week and weekends as well as holidays. 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.
“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”
About: As a pet owner myself I know that our pets are our babies. (Lord knows I treat mine like my baby). I work from home so someone is always with your fur baby. We live about 5 minutes from Switchyard Park and like to walk the trail. Our apartment complex has a small dog park and a trail that is about half a mile long that we go on all the time. My dog is part husky so I know the importance of keeping dogs busy. We have multiple puzzles and toys ready to go. I’m very type A when it comes to my dog so you can expect the same with your pet. I’ll over communicate with you, send you photos daily, and let you know how your pup is adjusting. Safety and communication are always number one. I’ve grown up with pets all my life and baby sat for other dogs. My dog has some medical issues (a bad knee) so I’m no stranger to medication and keeping an eye out on existing injuries. If you want to meet up or see the environment your dog will be staying before hand, feel free to reach out to me! Since I work from home we take a lot of short walks through the day and I set up puzzles for them to play inside in case it’s too hot. I want to keep your dogs schedule as much as possible. A new environment for them can be stressful and if I can help ease some of that with following their schedule, I’m happy to do it! Your dog will have free range of our apartment. They’re allowed on all furniture and we have multiple dog beds in case they want their space. We have 2 crates in the house in case the dogs need to be crated and we will never have more than 2 dogs in the apartment (yours and mine only). We have a small dog park across the street of our apartment that will only be used if no other dogs are already there. Of course I will ask your preference if you’re comfortable with them going there or only walks.
“Lucy definitely made my dog feel comfortable. I appreciated the communication since I received a few pictures a day of my dog. Lucy did a great job and made sure to give my dog her medicine. Thank you!”
“Maddie had such a good time with Isabella! She was so gentle and caring, and made sure Maddie got plenty of walks and attention. I highly recommend her- she'll take great care of your pets and put your mind at ease.”
“Tawny has been so great! We have boarded with her three times now and she has been my first choice any time we need! Great communication, sends pics, loves our dog and integrates him into her schedule/family while he is there. He loves being there. She has been so flexible and accommodating with pick ups and schedules. Definitely recommend her!”

About: I've had cats since I was five years old, so caring for them has always been a part of my life. I have a special connection with cats and truly understand their unique personalities, whether they're playful, shy, or independent. I treat every cat as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. I honestly can't imagine my life without cats, and I'd be honored to care for yours.
About: Hello! My name is Mirte (pronounced meer‑tah), and I’ve been caring for pets professionally for several years now. I share my home with a sweet kitty named Evie and a goofy beagle named Mylo, and I adore them both like family. That same level of love, patience, and attention is what I bring to every cat I care for. Before pursuing social work I originally planned to become a veterinary technician, so my love for animals runs deep. Cats have always held a special place in my heart. 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: Hello! My name is Lauren and I would love the opportunity to take care of your pets when you are not able to. I myself have grown up with dogs my whole life and would pet sit my neighbors animals all the time. Now, I have my own little zoo of 2 dogs, 3 cats, and some geckos. I spent one year in a vet tech program so i know the basics of animal medicine, 6 months taking care of the marine mammals at Shedd Aquarium, and I also have a bachelor's degree in Zoology. I understand it is hard to leave your pets unattended for hours on end and stressful when you come home to an accident but they can't help it. I want to help alleviate that stress for you and your pet by giving them the best care possible. I can only provide check-ins and walking services. I am looking for some supplemental income to help support my little family. I have a 3 year old and an 8 month old but have recently gotten a full time job in the Bloomington area. I am available during early evening hours and weekends. They are family so they get treated with respect and love and I will treat yours like I treat mine to make sure they are happy and living their best life.
About: I have been around cats my whole life. I’ve made friends with the cats that others say, “oh she’s not too fond of people” like magic! And I’ve given oral medications to cats handfuls of times.
“Very attentive and careful while walking my husky that hasn’t always been well behaved on a leash. He even tried working with her to reduce her pulling. Gave her all the attention she needed when she was missing her family! Would absolutely use him again and recommend him to friends and family.”
About: I’ve taken care of fur babies for as long as I can remember. I have also volunteered at the shelter. I currently have 1 dog and 7 cats of my own that I rescued and adore. Animals have a special place in my heart. I currently work a full time job but now that my children are grown I have evening time Monday-Friday after 5:00pm and every weekend open. I can provide any and all necessary care for your pet. Feeding/watering, litter cleaning, play time, walks and administering medication if needed. I would care for them as if they were my own.
“Rayann was great! She took good care of my cat and gave me daily updates and pics. He warmed up to her quicker than he would with most people and I felt comfortable leaving him in her care.”
About: I've taken care of many pets in my lifetime, including pet and house sitting for family and friends. I love most animals (snakes scare me). I live in the last house on a dead end county road and have plenty of room for animals to play and have fun. Plus, my kids and our pets will have fun visiting and playing with your pets. I currently work weekends only as a RN. I am home Mondays-Thursdays. I do have 3 kids of my own, so I do have to get them to and from school. We have a large yard for pets to play. Dogs will always be on leashes as our yard is in currently fenced. We live in the last house on a dead end country road, so no cars come past our home. I can easily crate your pet if needed. We have a friendly female dog and 3 friendly cats.

About: As a retired teacher, I’ve spent my life nurturing, encouraging, and caring for others, and that same patience and dedication extend to every dog I meet. I understand that pets are family, and I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment where your furry friend can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply a calm companion nearby, I tailor my care to their unique personality and needs. With years of experience building trust and creating positive relationships, you can have peace of mind knowing your beloved pet is receiving plenty of attention, affection, and gentle care. I look forward to treating your dog like one of my own! 🐾❤️ I am available to watch your dog for you if you need a short-term doggy daycare option or someone reliable to care for your furry family member while you’re on vacation for several days. I have a fenced-in yard and two fur babies to keep your fur baby company while you’re away. We will have regular yard playtime and potty breaks, every 2-4 hours during the day. I am also happy to come walk your dog for you if you prefer that.
“Catherine was more then we could ever hope for with our Danny. She was so great from the minute they met he treated her like a trusted family member. Knowing how much she cares for animal and her kind calming personality was comforting to us all. I would recommend her to everyone I know. Thank you for the updates with pictures and text. You are outstanding!”
About: I grew up with several small dogs and I currently have three, so I have experience with taking care of their needs and giving attention to multiple dogs at once! I’m available for boarding and dog sitting on weekends and weekdays. I’m home most days so my schedule is fairly open. When I'm available, I rarely leave the house for more than an hour at a time. I have a fenced in yard for your dog to safely enjoy fresh air! I also have two small crates and the ability to segment off parts of the house with baby gates if the need arises.
About: I own a King Charles Cavalier and a German Shepherd currently! I grew up on a farm in southern Indiana with multiple foster and adopted animals! My mother instilled a serious love and adoration for people and their favorite pets. I volunteered at our local animal shelter, was trained in multiple animal science courses, and was taught to love and respect the animals I work with, both domesticated and exotic. I have handled dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, foxes, raccoons, bobcats, farm livestock, petting zoo animals, and more. I love them and have tons of professional experience to give your fur-baby the best experience possible. Please feel free to message or call whenever needed and I am more then happy to accommodate ANYTHING you or your sweet pet needs. I have lots of time on my hands, currently we start our mornings with a good meal and a long walk along our neighborhood. We will head to the house for a quick nap or so that our older dogs and puppies can rest. We then head to either the local state park or a dog park for some new stimulation. When we return home, we have some free time with toys and puzzles, enjoy another good meal, take another long, walk around the neighborhood, and then cuddle on the couch or in the beds until bedtime. I don’t have a fence in yard however, we have multiple leashes here as well as one that you would prefer to use. All of our animals are continuously monitored, I work part-time, and we also have cameras in the house. Feel free to request photos or videos of your baby at any point in time.

Her fenced-in back yard provides a great opportunity for the dogs to romp around. Our dogs were worn out from playing and having such a good time! I would definitely love to use Kelli again.”
About: You're not just hiring another pet sitter; you're entrusting your beloved dog to someone whose life has been filled with canine companionship from day one. Growing up with dogs wasn't just about having pets; it was a hands-on education in understanding their nuanced body language, anticipating their needs, and fostering genuine connections built on trust and affection. This lifelong immersion has instilled in me an intuitive understanding that goes beyond standard training, allowing me to provide a level of care that feels less like a service and more like an extension of the loving home your dog already knows. I am currently a stay at home mom so will have plenty of time for your pets , love doing outdoor activities with the dogs also love cuddling and loving on all the animals I will take your dog out on leash every couple hours unless they need more, I have a chiweenie and German shepherd that loves having friends to play with and my children are amazing with animals as well.
About: I’ve been a doggo lover my entire life. I got my first pup my senior year of high school and he’s my best friend to this day. At home I’m now a doggo dad of 4. Winston, Calvin, Winnie, & Junior. My daily experience of over 10 years has taught me how to handle everything from high energy zoomies to picky eater senior dogs (my chihuahua). If it’s a quick walk around the block, a full day of adventures, or just coming to check in and feed, I treat every pet like my own. Really paying attention to their routine, safety, exercise, and lots of affection. I’d love to bring that type of care to your fur babies. I am as flexible as it gets. My other job is delivering groceries for Walmart which I also make my own hours for. I am available and compatible to match the schedule and services you need. My home is a secure, pet friendly fenced in yard. I would never leave your fur babies outside without supervision. Safety and trust are my top priorities. My dogs are very friendly but can be totally isolated from your pets if that’s what you request. I treat every home I enter with the utmost respect, following your instructions exactly, and I will send updates with photos so you can see your fur babies happy and safe. You can trust your pet will be in a loving, attentive, and safe environment just like my own pack receives every day.
About: Pets have always been center stage in my life. Currently I share my home with three cats and a granddog who likes to visit and go for walks with me. My love and appreciation for animals has sparked my desire to be a pet sitter. I began my pet sitting journey by caring for pets belonging to friends, neighbors, and family. I gained experience providing for pets needing oral medication, accommodating frightened and lonely animals, and behaving in a manner which gained the trust of my new furry friends. I am a retired teacher and have a flexible schedule. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening schedules. I am also available for overnight stays for both pet and house sitting. I am able to meet all expectations while caring for your pet at home. I have a large country property to provide stimulating outdoor time for overnight furry guests. I will take all precautions needed to provide a safe and comfortable environment for your furry companions,

About: From day 1 I have been the BIGGEST dog lover 🐶🥰 From having some of my own, to taking care of my friends and family’s dog, to play dates with other family pets.

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).
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have had experience with pups of all walks of life. As I got older, my friends got cats and I love a good kitty snuggle. I’m the friend that checks on the animals when you have to go out or hit up vacation! I work full time but work from home partially through the week! Usually available most weekday evenings after 5pm and would be available on set weekends for additional care beginning in the afternoons. I have a large fenced in backyard and work from home part of the week. I also have a separate area for crating, if needed. My own pup, Cricket, would love to have a buddy even now and again!
About: I’ve taken care of animals all around the family! I have two dogs and a cat at home who have been spoiled so much. I love animals of all kinds. I have given dogs and cats medications orally.

I keep an open schedule! I am able to take your pets on walks! As long as it’s not raining I would love to take your little ones on walks. I keep animals close when a vehicle is near. I’ll treat them as my own!
About: I have worked in the pet industry for 10 years. I have done everything from cleaning kennels, to working as a vet assistant in a clinic. I also have experience with farm and exotic animals. I currently don't have furbabies of my own, but I find them very therapeutic to interact with. Life is boring without furbabies in my life. I will enter the home as instructed by owners, and proceed in a professional manner. I will use my education as a vet assistant and future vet tech to ensure the animal(s) experience minimal upheaval of their daily routines.

“Our 1 y/o charcoal lab Maverick recently stayed with Sarah and her family for an overnight boarding and cannot say enough good things about this first experience using her. I was very apprehensive, as we'd never used Rover or boarded our dog before, but Sarah and her family made me feel very at ease and were so extremely understanding when we were hours late picking him up due to weather as we were traveling back from our out of state trip. She was wonderful with keeping me up to date on his behavior and how he was handling the stay and sent numerous photos and videos while we were away. 10/10 experience!”
“Nora was great with Stevie, and we will definitely be using her services again! She was very communicative, and you can tell she really loves dogs. Stevie had so much fun playing with Scarlet and another pup in her care. Thanks 😊”
About: I have been taking care of all sorts of animal companions for 20 years! I worked on a Farmed Animal sanctuary and took care of chickens, goats, turkeys, cows, and pigs. I have had cats and dogs my whole life and specialize in both senior care and puppies. I’m great at training pups and love to be active. If your dog needs a good hike, I’m your guy! I’m currently working the early morning shift and have plenty of time after work to care for your babies. I also have weekends off so go on that day trip you always wanted to and leave it to me. My dogs are my children. I take them hiking, swimming, walking, and/or to the dog park at least once a day. I’m just starting out as a personal trainer so if your dog needs a jog around the block I can do that.

A new environment for them can be stressful and if I can help ease some of that with following their schedule, I’m happy to do it! Your dog will have free range of our apartment. They’re allowed on all furniture and we have multiple dog beds in case they want their space. We have 2 crates in the house in case the dogs need to be crated and we will never have more than 2 dogs in the apartment (yours and mine only). We have a small dog park across the street of our apartment that will only be used if no other dogs are already there. Of course I will ask your preference if you’re comfortable with them going there or only walks.
“Lucy definitely made my dog feel comfortable. I appreciated the communication since I received a few pictures a day of my dog. Lucy did a great job and made sure to give my dog her medicine. Thank you!”
“Maddie had such a good time with Isabella! She was so gentle and caring, and made sure Maddie got plenty of walks and attention. I highly recommend her- she'll take great care of your pets and put your mind at ease.”
“Tawny has been so great! We have boarded with her three times now and she has been my first choice any time we need! Great communication, sends pics, loves our dog and integrates him into her schedule/family while he is there. He loves being there. She has been so flexible and accommodating with pick ups and schedules. Definitely recommend her!”
“Kelly was incredible!! I'm truly wondering if our dog will be sad to come home because he loved staying with Kelly so much, haha. She sent so many wonderful picture and video updates. She took such good care of our dog and even gave him baths and daily walks and worked on commands with him. He learned so much just from staying there. I will definitely be using Kelly again and I will recommend her to my friends as well!”
“Super understanding when our elderly boy was just too anxious to be away from us for a night. Debbie’s home is spacious, with lots of yard space for exercise. Their sweet and lovable pup Chesney was ready to greet and befriend both of us upon arrival. With her experience and sensitivity, your pet will be safe and well-cared for in Debbie’s capable hands.”
“Wonderfully patient with my cat, Charlie, who needed time to adjust to their cat and dog. After spending some solo time with our Charlie in closed off parts of the house, Charlie voluntarily entered the rest of the house, accepting of her new friends! I appreciated Matthew and Ellie taking the required time and care to make the adjustment go well. Will definitely consider using them again.”
“Lindsie provided excellent care and attention for my little boy Otto. She was very good about sending me photos and reassuring me he was doing just fine with her. Otto is a 9 year old Miniature Schnauzer and used to just the two of us being together but he did very well with Lindsie. I highly recommend considering Lindsie as a sitter.”
“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.”
