About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, parrots, chickens, and horses, and have some dog training experience. I just graduated from college, so I have a relatively free schedule as I transition, and would love to dedicate that time to animal care! I make sure I am very attentive when seeing what the pet needs, and I make sure to accommodate for whatever recommendations my clients would like to see being done. I also have a flexible schedule and can work around whatever is needed for them to remain happy and healthy.
About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 12 years old and am often told that I am the animal "whisperer"! I love animals and learning each one's personality is my specialty. I have experience in house sitting, dog walking, feeding times, learning what is comfortable with each animal and any medications, along with how each animal prefers to take them! If there are any specific needs that animals prefer or need, I adjust and adapt very easily to those needs. I just graduated from IUPUI and acquired a work from home job that allows me to have plenty of time for your fur babies! Besides the work from home job, I clean residential homes occasionally. My schedule is easily adjusted as needed! As an animal lover, I can ensure that your babies are treated with respect and love. It is my belief that animals should always have the best treatment regardless of any circumstances. Animals have different personalities and those personalities speak out through their actions. I'm very good at picking up on different personalities such as when they are scared, happy, shy, sad and etc. Not only am I good at picking up on these emotions but I'm trained in reacting in a positive way towards those emotions that will help establish trust and safety. Trust and a safe environment are key to helping with anxiety your animal might have in the time they are not with you!
About: I’ve taken care of family and friends animals since I was very young. My parents let me have my own guinea pig to take care of myself starting in kindergarten. I’ve always loved animals and will help in anyway I can. I care for my elderly pugs on a daily basis. I work as a nanny and am a student but only in the morning and they are both very flexible so I can add in my needs with animal sitting. I’m available most night as well. I will follow all the instructions listed for me to do. I like to make sure the house is spotless when the owners get home so they can relax. I will take care of the animals by doing all I can to make sure they feel safe and cared for as well.
“I can confidently say we loved Catherine! She went above and beyond when we had her watch over our dog when we were out of state. She always kept us updated each visit with pictures and a little summary what happened during their visit together. Catherine really does care for the well being of dogs and even hung out a little extra just because she could tell our dog needed it while we were away. Our kitty enjoyed the attention too. We absolutely loved her and will rebook again when we need to!”
About: I've had my 2 cats and dogs for 12 years and adore them! I make new feline and canine friends easily so I'm happy to sit/walk yours as well! My work schedule is light right now so I have a lot of availability for sittings and walks and have done this a lot for friends. I am open to your specific directions for caring for your animals and am flexible. Write down any specific details and I will follow them. I am trustworthy and have house sat and dog walked for many friends and neighbors! People count on me!
About: I have been house sitting and taking care of pets throughout high school and college. I have two cats of my own. I treat any pet as if it is my own when watching them! I am free a lot of the time and can work around many different schedules. I am easy to work with and am very flexible! I play with my own cats every chance I get and make sure they have everything they could need or want. I do this with the pets I watch as well because that’s how I would want my cats taken care of!
About: My pet care experience includes a variety of different animals such as, dogs, cats, a turtle, hamster, mouse, bunny, and fish! I have always had a strong connection with animals and caring for them in general. The passion I have for taking care of all animals is very strong and I believe they are the purest creatures we have. If you chose me to watch your dogs or cats I promise you they will feel safe in this home and loved while you are gone. Your pet will be in good and loving hands. I also believe that animals have distinct personalities and emotions and those emotions should be paid attention to. Animals have needs just like humans have needs. Us humans have to tend to them! I feed the cats and dog every morning around 7 or 8. I let the dog out for about an hour or so before I leave for work and, clean the cats litter boxes (yes, they have separate ones) while the coffee is brewing. I make sure to spend some quality time with them before I leave. When I get home, Juno is always so excited to see me and the cats run up to me too! I’m just as excited to see them as they are to see me… I am not offering Boarding services right now because my dog and cats do not get along with other animals. I do offer house sitting services, where I start off by greeting the animals and gaining their trust. This is always the first thing I do when entering your house. I then go to the kitchen where the instructions to feed and walk them usually are. If they are not in the kitchen I usually double check my Rover app to see if there are instructions there. I make sure to close all of the blinds in the house and, lock every door if I ever need to leave during the house sitting duration.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for several years now from having my own pets to volunteering at our local animal shelter giving baths, play time and training. I have a huge passion for making all animal feel loved and safe! My husband and I run a cleaning and home service company with 2 employees and we are so lucky to have a super flexible schedule with a lot of time off! All animals deserve to feel loved and wanted and that’s what I strive for. I love giving all the pets and belly rubs and making sure your animal feels all the affection they deserve!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, currently have an Australian shepherd named Birdie who i love with all my heart. I know how important it is for dogs to be able to get that energy out with a nice walk. Im available basically whenever just need a days notice. I typically prefer mornings most days. But im not opposed to other types of scheduling! Just let me know! Im just available for walks. You can definitely trust me with your dog. I know how important dogs are to a family. My dog is like my child.
About: With over 3 years of experience caring for dogs, cats and other small animals, I provide dependable, attentive and personalized pet sitting and walking services! I prioritize safety, comfort and routines to ensure your pet feels secure and happy while you are away. Whether that means daily walks, administering medication or overnight care, your pet is in caring, capable hands! As a recent college graduate, I possess a very flexible schedule! Pet care has become a meaningful part of my daily routine, for my pets and those I take care of. I’m available and time throughout the week to provide consistent care. Caring for animals not only fits perfectly into my current lifestyle, but it’s something I truly enjoy and take pride in! As a veteran camp counselor, safety and well being are at the forefront of my mind at all times. This remains true when I am taking care of animals of any sort. I take great care to provide a calm, secure and clean environment your pet will enjoy, and that you will feel comfortable coming back to. From following specific care instructions to maintaining consistent routines, I aim to build trust with both pets and their owners through responsible service!
About: I absolutely love animals and will care for your pets as my own. I have had cats my whole life and have helped raise them. I also have two pitbulls of my own who are very loving. I am comfortable around all breeds, sizes and ages. I don’t have a problem with early morning walks either. I will show lots of love, attentiveness and patience towards your pets. I will always follow your rules that you have for your pet to encourage good behavior and consistent training. Please call or text if you have any questions! I have a fenced yard and two friendly pups to play with! Also I have extra crates if needed or two separate rooms they can stay in with beds. I have nights off and work during the day so i’m always available for a night walk or mornings. I have every Tuesday off and another random day in the week but I can also work with your schedule. At the moment i’m not accepting boarding. I recently got a kitten and she’s still very scared so hopefully soon I will be able to.

Abigail G.
“Abi is an amazing person, and I would trust her full heartedly anytime with the care of my two dogs. She is very reliable, kind, and consistent. She follows through with what she is asked to do, and is a diligent worker. I have had the honor of being her professor in the psychology program at our university, and she has excelled as a person and in her work throughout getting her degree. I could not recommend her more!”
Taylor W.
“My fur baby is an elderly Maltese girl. Taylor is amazing with her. A kennel is not an option for my baby. She has separation anxiety, but Taylor can calm her. I was able to enjoy a 12 day vacation while Taylor sat for me and took care of my house and baby. She sent me daily photo updates, ensured she was given her medicine each day, gave her lots of one on one time and attention and tended to the house as well. She is responsible, trust worthy and I will use Taylor every time I need a dog sitter. If she isn't available I will wait until she is. Highly recommend”
