“So happy to have our Ollie in a warm, inviting place. We went on vacation with peace of mind that our puppy was very well taken care. Clara sent us pictures and let us know how our guy was doing. Highly recommend !!!!!”
“Debra did an awesome job with our dog who wasn’t feeling the best. She treated him well and was able to manage his quirks. I would not hesitate to use her as a dog sitter. She will treat your dogs like gold. Use Debra for your sitting needs.”
“Luke was extremely kind and has a nice fenced in backyard that Henry was able to play in all day. He was also very communicative and went the extra mile to make sure Henry had fun. I would highly recommend!”
“We are very pleased to find Julie for our boarding needs. She received plenty of exercise during her stay being able to play with other pets. Already scheduled for next trip😊”
“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing with our dog! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. He had such a wonderful stay, made so many new friends, and came home happy and well cared for. Elizabeth kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and comfort while we were away. It was clear how much she genuinely cared for him and treated him like one of her own. We never had to worry for a second knowing he was with her. We couldn’t recommend Elizabeth more and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Our pup Maisy had a great time with Madison! Maisy is a shy girl and Madison was very patient and helpful in getting her acclimated and introduced to the other dogs. She had a great stay and came home happy!”
“Katy took good care of our dog, Shadow. She sent us pictures and gave us daily updates. She has a nice fenced in backyard and two sweet dogs to play with. We would definitely leave Shadow with her again!”
“Pamela was so sweet from the start and I had a good feeling about leaving my pup with her. She seemed genuinely excited to get to know him, give her sweet dog some friend time, and provide as many cuddles as he needed. That impression was absolutely correct if not underestimating how much she cares and enjoys taking care of pups. I have never used a pet service to take care of Deacon and she completely settled my concerns and exceeded my expectations. I would love to hire her again!”
“Beth provides a welcoming home and we know our dog was well cared for on our trip. She was great with communication and flexible with drop off and pick up. We would not hesitate to book Beth again. Highly recommend!”
“Beth and Tracy were absolutely wonderful with Duke. Beth communicated often and took lots of pictures. They took wonderful care of our pup, which made us feel really good and allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation.”
“Kari and her family did an absolutely fantastic job, taking care of Sebastian. Not only were her doggies and family great with him, I would rebook with them anytime I could! Definitely recommend them for anybody that needs a dog sitter! Thank you guys!!”
“My two dogs stayed with Jenai and Sean and had the best time! I got regular updates from them about how things were going, and they were happy and loved during their stay! They came home exhausted from all of the fun! Definitely recommended!!”
“I rarely ever leave Molly even with a good friend. She made herself at home with Frances and family. She ate just fine and was well cared for. I will definitely rebook specifically with Frances the next time I need a pet sitter!”
“Hanna and her family made Charlie feel right at home! They accepted his stinky shoe fetish and his desire for hands constantly petting with absolute open arms (his favorite). Her two fur babies welcomed him and left him absolutely exhausted and maybe a little depressed that there’s no one to play with in his own backyard. We will definitely be rebooking again! Thank you!”
“Trina is the best! I am a new dog mom with a small rambunctious puppy so I was very nervous to leave her with anyone. I had a friend bail on me last second to watch her so I was absolutely in a pinch and Trina was quick to respond and open to a visit before hand. She made the whole process very relieving and sent update pictures through the night. My night ran later than expected and Trina told me not to worry and to enjoy my night, so sweet! I would recommend her to everyone!”
“Sam was great! Larry had an awesome time hanging out with them. They were very professional, responsive and caring. They treated Larry like he was one of their own. When future needs arise we will for sure contact Sam again.”

I am constantly caring for my own fur babies morning and night, but I would love to help you out on the weekends as my availability allows! When I am at a clients home, I really like to respect their wishes and care for their animals as they would. I try to go over as many details as possible as far as where they can go on the property and if they prefer the pup to be on a leash or not.

We definitely recommend her.”

My own puppy is seven years old and he is a spoiled little one, but is a gentle and sweet young fellow, his sister is a quiet long haired kitty. I love them both so much. I am an artist and a student at IUSB, but I have plenty of time between classes for long walks and other quality care your pets deserve. I live in a quiet neighborhood, overlooking a small pond, there is a fenced dog yard right outside my apartment building as well as many acres of green lawns to frolic upon.

About: I bring over 15 years of experience as a puppy trainer for Canine Companions for Independence, where I helped raise and train service dog puppies with structure, consistency, and patience. That experience gave me a deep understanding of obedience training, behavior development, socialization, and building trust with dogs of all temperaments. I’ve also had dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s who I am. I’m comfortable reinforcing training, working with puppies, and providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets. I understand routines, communication, and the importance of making pets feel safe and secure while their owners are away.

As a stay-at-home dad, pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. During the school year, I have flexibility and availability throughout the day for drop-ins, walks, feedings, and check-ins. Summers are even more open, allowing me to offer consistent, reliable care with a flexible schedule. Because I’m home-based, I’m able to prioritize punctuality, routine, and communication. Pet care isn’t something I try to squeeze in — it’s something I can intentionally plan my day around to ensure your pets receive dependable, attentive care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules carefully, provide exercise or playtime based on their needs, clean litter boxes or pick up waste promptly, and reinforce any household rules or training already in place. I understand that pets feel most comfortable in their own environment, so I focus on consistency, patience, and attentiveness. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. With over 15 years of experience training puppies for Canine Companions for Independence and a lifetime of owning both dogs and cats, I’m highly observant of behavior and body language, ensuring your pet feels safe, secure, and well cared for at all times.

As a dog owner myself with 3 dogs of my own, I understand the level of patience, consistency, and attention that goes into properly caring for pets every day. I know that every dog has a different personality and energy level. Some dogs love staying active with walks and playtime, while others are happiest relaxing and getting cuddles and companionship.

I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medications, crate routines, and any other specific care needs to help pets feel comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that trust is extremely important when someone is allowing me into their home and trusting me with their pets. I treat every home with respect, keep things clean and organized, and make sure pets are supervised, safe, and getting plenty of attention and affection. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re away.

About: I’ve been a nanny before for 6 months, I’ve watched dogs for people on vacation. I really put my heart into it and care for animals and humans alike! I am active and love getting outside and playing with your pets or giving them special attention and love! I am pretty open and looking for it to be my full time job. I’d love to build relationships with my clients and prove that I’m a trustworthy and reliable animal watcher. I cuddle and pet my dogs, brush them every other day and bathe them around once a week, depending on how dirty they are. I typically walk them once a day and allow them to get some fresh air at the park and get fresh air!

“So happy to have our Ollie in a warm, inviting place. We went on vacation with peace of mind that our puppy was very well taken care. Clara sent us pictures and let us know how our guy was doing. Highly recommend !!!!!”
“Debra did an awesome job with our dog who wasn’t feeling the best. She treated him well and was able to manage his quirks. I would not hesitate to use her as a dog sitter. She will treat your dogs like gold. Use Debra for your sitting needs.”
“Luke was extremely kind and has a nice fenced in backyard that Henry was able to play in all day. He was also very communicative and went the extra mile to make sure Henry had fun. I would highly recommend!”
“We are very pleased to find Julie for our boarding needs. She received plenty of exercise during her stay being able to play with other pets. Already scheduled for next trip😊”
“Elizabeth was absolutely amazing with our dog! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. He had such a wonderful stay, made so many new friends, and came home happy and well cared for. Elizabeth kept us updated with pictures and videos throughout his stay, which gave us so much peace of mind and comfort while we were away. It was clear how much she genuinely cared for him and treated him like one of her own. We never had to worry for a second knowing he was with her. We couldn’t recommend Elizabeth more and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Our pup Maisy had a great time with Madison! Maisy is a shy girl and Madison was very patient and helpful in getting her acclimated and introduced to the other dogs. She had a great stay and came home happy!”
“Katy took good care of our dog, Shadow. She sent us pictures and gave us daily updates. She has a nice fenced in backyard and two sweet dogs to play with. We would definitely leave Shadow with her again!”
“Pamela was so sweet from the start and I had a good feeling about leaving my pup with her. She seemed genuinely excited to get to know him, give her sweet dog some friend time, and provide as many cuddles as he needed. That impression was absolutely correct if not underestimating how much she cares and enjoys taking care of pups. I have never used a pet service to take care of Deacon and she completely settled my concerns and exceeded my expectations. I would love to hire her again!”
“Beth provides a welcoming home and we know our dog was well cared for on our trip. She was great with communication and flexible with drop off and pick up. We would not hesitate to book Beth again. Highly recommend!”
“Kari and her family did an absolutely fantastic job, taking care of Sebastian. Not only were her doggies and family great with him, I would rebook with them anytime I could! Definitely recommend them for anybody that needs a dog sitter! Thank you guys!!”
“My two dogs stayed with Jenai and Sean and had the best time! I got regular updates from them about how things were going, and they were happy and loved during their stay! They came home exhausted from all of the fun! Definitely recommended!!”
“I rarely ever leave Molly even with a good friend. She made herself at home with Frances and family. She ate just fine and was well cared for. I will definitely rebook specifically with Frances the next time I need a pet sitter!”
“Hanna and her family made Charlie feel right at home! They accepted his stinky shoe fetish and his desire for hands constantly petting with absolute open arms (his favorite). Her two fur babies welcomed him and left him absolutely exhausted and maybe a little depressed that there’s no one to play with in his own backyard. We will definitely be rebooking again! Thank you!”
“Sam was great! Larry had an awesome time hanging out with them. They were very professional, responsive and caring. They treated Larry like he was one of their own. When future needs arise we will for sure contact Sam again.”
“Micheal & his family were wonderful to Ripley! He was kept busy and given lots of love; Ripley’s Velcro personality was satisfied. Will be using Michael again - great care giver.”
