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).

“Luke was terrific! He was reliable, always on time, and fantastic with my dog Tommy. I rank him highly and enthusiastically. I will be using his services in the future. Purnima”

About: I’ve pet sat since age 10, having 3 dogs of my own growing up. I have pet sit for neighbors, friends, and family through the years Im a student, but my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m a student athlete at IU, and an animal behavior major. Feel free to reach out about scheduling!

About: I am currently a proud parent to two cat, so I’m very well versed in their play styles and respecting their boundaries. However I spent my childhood with a loving dog who recently passed away. Navigating his senior years taught me that care isn’t just about walks or treats but about patience, sometimes administering medication, and recognizing subtle cues of a senior pet that may need a little extra comfort. Whether your pet is a high energy pet or senior pet who needs a gentle hand, I provide intuitive, dedicated, and delicate care that I’d want for my own. I’m currently a college student, but have lots of time to care for your pets! I’m available on Mondays and Wednesdays from 12:30 PM-4:00 PM or 5:30 PM-10:00 PM. Thursday- Sunday I’m available anytime after 7:00 PM. Whatever your pets need, I have it covered and their safety is always my number one priority. From double checking that every gate is latched and every lease is secured/correctly on to closely monitoring your pets for any sign of discomfort, ill treat your home and your pets with the highest level of care. Whether it’s following a strict medication schedule or navigating a high energy walk, I’m prepared for any situation!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is a combination of my extensive experience and a genuine passion for providing top-notch care for pets. I have a proven track record of not only taking care of pets but also enhancing their overall well-being. I excel in senior pet care, having cared for older animals with various health needs and providing them with the attention and support they require. My commitment to clear communication with pet owners, reliability, and a deep understanding of animal behavior allows me to offer a level of service that ensures peace of mind for both pet owners and their beloved companions.

Additionally, I communicate closely with the pet owner to provide updates and ensure any special requests or concerns are addressed promptly. Overall, my goal is to create a stress-free and enjoyable experience for both pets and their owners, whether in my home or theirs.

About: I’ve had two dogs before, a dog currently named Riley. I love walking dogs, and will take them for several miles. I also have experience with cats, I have fostered them before. Right now I’m home for the holidays until 1/2 and I’m not too busy, looking to make some extra money on the side! So my schedule is pretty open and flexible I have a lot of space in my room in my apartment that they can stay in. Plenty of places to walk them and lots of friends around that would love to meet them and give them attention.

About: What sets me apart? I treat every pet like my own. I have an 8-year-old Yorkie I adore, and I bring that same love to yours My Tuesdays and Thursdays are pretty open. I have one class mid afternoon and one at night. Fridays and weekends, I am completely my schedule if open. Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I use secure leashes, avoid unsafe areas, monitor behavior closely, and ensure constant supervision during walks or visits

About: I’ve taken care of pets my entire life for as long as I can remember. Anything from horses to rabbits. I also have 5 years of veterinary assistant/tech experience at a small animal veterinary clinic. I’m experienced and comfortable giving pets their medications, injections, nail trims, etc. I’m currently just a homemaker so I have a lot of availability, I would love to spend my free time with animals as they are my passion. Whether I am coming by a couple times a day to take care of your pets or house sitting I am a very by-the-book type of person. I will follow your instruction and guidelines in an organized and detailed manner. My experience in a vet clinic also allows me to feel comfortable with any pet care situation.

About: I have been around dogs and animals my whole life, and finally got my own in the last ten years after watching others' for several years before that. I continue to help friends and family both with pet sitting and training where I can. Most of my experience is with rescue dogs, and I'm happy to board any difficult dogs you may have. I love working with puppies and helping them settle into new routines and learning how to live in our human world. I have experience with reactive and aggressive dogs, and we can work together to make sure any safety precautions are covered if needed. I have experience with dogs who have disabilities and special needs, including deafness and anxiety issues, as well medication needs. I have 15 years experience training multiple kinds of animals, and I continue to enroll in online and in person training classes to improve my skills, and expand my knowledge. During a meet and greet, we can discuss if any training is something you're interested in as well! I am a professional dog trainer, and my schedule is a bit flexible when it comes to pick up/drop off times, but I will be out of the house for 2-5 hours most days. When I'm home, I'll be able to give your dogs whatever they need, whether it's just attention, or exercise to burn off the down time from when I was gone! When I leave the house, I keep dogs from different families separated and will most likely need to crate your dog. If this is not possible for your dog, there may be an extra charge depending on what changes I'll need to make to my schedule. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs, Rafiki and Apollo, who are always looking for friends to hang out with! They have their own personalities that can work with all types of dogs whether they are up for some playtime, hikes, or even hanging out on the couch all day if that's what your dog is into! We have several parks and trails we go to regularly if you're interested as well. In the house, I'm fine with dogs on the furniture, but if you'd like I have many dog beds around as well if they prefer those. Standard walking services include a walk around your neighborhood with minimal training besides upkeep on your expectations of your dogs. We can add on any training services to work on reducing pulling or working on reactivity as needed if interested. I also can provide longer "adventure" walks which would include driving your dog to local parks/trails and a walk on a long line for extra decompression and exercise needs.

About: I’ve owned dogs and cats ever since I was born! Animals mean just as much to me as humans. I adore giving them the care they need and deserve. Neighbors, family, and friends have always called on me to take care of their animals when they weren’t able. I enjoy walking, bathing, and playing with animals, as well as anything needed to take good care of them! I have been traveling abroad, but now I will be home from June through August and will not have a full time job, so I have a lot of availability within the next couple months to take care of your pets!
