About: Hi! I’m a reliable, caring, and detail-oriented cat lover with years of firsthand experience caring for my own pets. I’ve had four cats throughout my life, including one with thyroid disease who required daily medication, so I’m comfortable following medication schedules and paying close attention to a cat’s individual health needs and routine. In addition to my pet care experience, my various leadership positions in college have strengthened my responsibility, communication, and problem-solving skills. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I take the time to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your cat enjoys playtime and cuddles or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll tailor my visits to their needs. I’ll provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, administer medications as directed, and send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in loving and dependable hands. I treat every cat with the same care and attention I would give my own. 🐾

“Our dog Scrappy has separation anxiety and we rarely leave him home alone, with the exception of Sunday mornings so my wife and I can attend church.

About: Let us offer you the peace of mind you need if you're out of town on business, on vacation, or just at the office. We comfort your canine & feline friends during the day, so when you arrive home everyone can begin relaxing right away. We are truly "animal people". No kids, married for over 40 years and living on a small farm in White Hall where we care for our menagerie of 4 legged friends. We know first hand how hard it is to find reliable help to look after our animals and the farm when we need to leave for anything more than a long day. Our alpacas are registered breeding stock and the guineas are for general amusement. But, the cats and dogs are all rescues, receive regular vet care and are fed on a routine schedule. We care deeply about their well being, nurse them like children when they are sick and spend a great deal of time and effort keeping them healthy and happy. We are regulars with our local vet and feed mill and know the area well. Hard work and long days are par for the course for us. Our common sense is well polished and we pay great attention to detail and feel quality communication is key to any relationship. We have been renovating a small farm house for many years, a work in progress as they say. We like to do business in the local community and are now in a position to offer our experience to the pet owners in our area. We are professional without being stuffy and want all animals to enjoy a high quality of life. As a full time photographer, I work in my studio most days and sometimes weekends too. Pets are either with me in the studio, or in the house with us at night. Your dogs join me in the studio on days I am working there, and they'll have one feline companion. I enjoy dogs that are laid back and my husband enjoys energetic dogs. Together with all that goes on at the farm, owners always tell us they are very relaxed when they go home.

About: Hi, my names Madi, I am a responsible adult with experience of taking care of dogs. I fostered pit bulls for almost three years, I previously dog sat for multiple families who relied on me for every trip they went on, and I once wanted to be a dog trainer so I learned a bit about dog behaviors and dog breeds. But above all else my love and passion for all the cute dogs in the world, I just want them all to feel loved. I can promise to take care of your fur baby, give them love and attention, and even send you some pictures for updates. I love puppers of all ages, sizes, and breeds and cannot wait to meet you and your companion. I also have my own dog, a small lab mix who is about one years old named Maverick. He is my best friend and my entire world - and maybe just a little spoiled. Currently, I work from home Mondays & Wednesdays, then Tuesdays, Thursdays & Fridays I am gone for about 9 hours total for work and commute. Saturdays and Sundays vary a lot. If I am dog walking - I like to be sure I know any reactions the dogs may have to certain things (if they eat all the trash, if they chase squirrels, if they jump on people, if they bark at dogs, etc) to create safety for me and the dog. If they stay with me - they MUST be dog friendly and meet my dog in a non-territorial location to be sure they are friendly.

“Casey and Marwa are the most accommodating and caring dog sitters, we have ever had. They do their best to keep with the routines that Indiana knows and then add extra long walks, treats, brushing, playing, and lots of love. Their Pug Kevin is so cute and friendly. On top of that, they are super-flexible with drop off and pick up times and took Indy in on very short notice. Will definitely be back”
