Shanie is very dependable and my dog is excited when I tell him she is coming. It's comforting knowing I don't worry about him so I can get my work done!

Brooke is super friendly, and responsible. She came out to visit us the day before the dog walking appointments and my dog ran right to her which was a comforting sign. We were traveling through the area in our RV and felt completely comfortable leaving our dog in Brooke’s care while we visited Chicago for the day. We highly recommend Brooke! She’s energetic, and perfectly capable of caring for big, strong and sweet pups. 5 stars! ⭐️

About: Hi, I'm Makenzie! Since I turned 18 I’ve worked as a Veterinary Technician, a kennel tech, at daycare/boarding facilities and I have pet sit for dozens of people throughout my life. That being said, I have experience with all different kinds of dogs and cats! From the smallest Chihuahuas to giant breeds, like Mastiffs. I've worked with the deaf, the blind and the sickly. I'm not excluding cats in any way, I've had my Calico since she was just a few weeks old and she’s my heart and soul! Animals are my passion and I'd love to be a part of your fur babies life! I’m currently not working a traditional job, so I have all day Monday-Friday to take care of your pets! Weekend availability is currently as needed. I care for your animals as if they were my own, making sure safety is my number one priority! As I do not offer in home services at my residence, I’ll see to it that your animals are safe, happy and healthy in their home and whenever we are exploring outside of it.

About: I have taken care of dogs pretty much all of my life. I will give your Pups real one on one care, affection and presence. I am responsive, consistent and someone you can count on in a pinch. I am patient and calm. I will also be able to give you updates. I am retired, so my daily routine will be based around your needs or wants for your pup. I am not juggling a job anymore, so I am open for bookings to help give your dog structure and companionship I do not have the capability, at my home, of having pets at my home due to not having a fenced in yard for their protection.

About: I have been surrounded by animals my whole life, and through those years they interest me more and more. I had/have multiple cats and dogs, and the connection with them has been something I couldn’t imagine not experiencing. Plus, the knowledge I have gained from being around familiar animals makes me feel I would love experiencing new things with other pets, and get to know their unique personalities. With that being said, I am open to almost any training/service necessary for your dog(s) or cat(s) needs and would love to get to know your fuzzy family! I’ve just started school, and my classes are every weekday from 5:30 pm to 10 pm, just so you’re aware if that contradicts any booking requirements you need. I have my own pets to take care of, but other than that I don’t have consistent routines that would get in the way of the times and dates I’m available. For drop-ins, I will do feedings, outdoor/potty time, and get to know your pet(s). If there’s any questions or other service not noted that you’d like to ask I can do, I would be happy to answer. Walks- I do at least 15 minute walks, and up to 90 minute walks. More characterized questions, such as walking area or what certain necessities your pet(s) needs can be discussed once I have contact/a schedule with you.

About: I’m relatively new to the pet care world, but I have done house and pet sitting for friends for the past few years. While I aspire to be every dog’s second favorite person, I’m also a personal trainer by trade, and I run a lot. I’d love to take your high energy dog for a jog. I’ve got a very flexible schedule and enjoy the variety that comes with it. I have a younger dog that needs lots of exercise, and I love getting outside to hike, jog, or walk around town. At home I have a fenced in yard for my dog. He is very friendly with other dogs, with the exception of intact males. We often go to the dog park in Valpo and spend time downtown to acclimatize to crowds and socializing.

About: Hi! I have worked in an animal shelter as an animal care technician for nearly four years. I have taken care of hundreds (likely thousands) of dogs, from puppies to seniors. I have seen a surplus of different medical and behavioral issues as well. I feel comfortable with these! I know a ton about animals; their care, behavior, handling, and overall wellbeing! I have always loved animals and making sure they have what's best for them. I'm almost complete with my vet assistant certificate, too! I am currently taking some summer classes for school. I can usually work around these, as they do not take up my entire days time. I can easily assess dog behavior to ensure that both the dog and myself are happy and safe. I can crate, walk, handle, and many other things with ease. I have four years of experience working with behaviorally challenged, shy, previously abused, untrusting, high energy, and the “typical” dogs. I have seen it all!

About: My pet care experience started as a young boy taking care of my pet dogs at home, when living in NC I had 3 cats while worked at doggy daycare/kennel and then decided to become a K-9 Handler. I have an almost 2 year old Belgian Malinois named Kodi, and I trained him in Gun Detection and Explosive Detection and we certified as a team and now work together in Hampton Schools, NFL stadiums, Amusement Parks, etc. I am reliable to walk, feed, and be a positive person in your dog or cats life! I work detection contracts a few days of the week with me and my dog Kodi, and then I train, play, walk, and care for him throughout the day when we are not actively working so I have plenty of free time when he is resting. I am comfortable interacting with all dogs in any living situation. With clear communication between me and the owner I am confident we could cultivate and ensure a safe and positive environment for me and your pet.
