BOOK A MEET & GREET
Dog Walking & Cat Sitting in Irvington, Indianapolis
Irvington has a personality all its own: historic homes, tree-lined streets, porch culture, walkable blocks, creative neighbors, and pets who know exactly how their day is supposed to go.
Reliable care. Thoughtful communication. Pets treated like individuals, not calendar slots.
What Does It Mean to Get Frisky?
Professional Pet Care for Irvington Dogs, Cats, and Busy Humans
Irvington is one of Indianapolis’s most beloved historic neighborhoods, known for its character-filled homes, walkable streets, creative local spirit, and strong neighborhood traditions.
That mix of historic bungalows, duplexes, walk-up apartments, cozy cottages, porches, alleys, street parking, older locks, fenced yards, and side entrances means pet care here needs to be more than “show up and wing it.” We plan for access, parking, routines, safety, timing, and communication before the visit starts.
At Frisky Business, we specialize in dependable, relationship-based care for pets in their own homes. Because your dog does not need a rotating cast of strangers, and your cat certainly did not approve that.
Why Irvington Pet Parents Choose Frisky Business
We are professional, insured, and organized.
You are not handing your keys, pets, and home routines to “someone who likes animals.” You are hiring a professional pet care company with systems, standards, and accountability.
We focus on consistency.
Pets do better when care is familiar. We prioritize stable caregiver relationships, clear notes, and repeatable routines so your pet is not starting from scratch every visit.
We know home access matters.
Irvington homes can involve gates, porches, alleys, lockboxes, apartments, duplexes, side doors, rear entries, older locks, and street parking. We document access carefully because “I think I found the right door?” is not a pet care strategy.
We communicate clearly.
You get updates through Time To Pet, including visit notes and photos. No vague “all good!” energy. You deserve to know how your pet actually did.
We take cats seriously.
A lot of pet care companies treat cat care like an afterthought. We do not. Cats need routine protection, wellness awareness, calm handling, and someone who understands that “she hid the whole time” is not always a complete update.
How We Can Help
Irvington Pet Care Services
Dog Walking
For dogs who need exercise, enrichment, a potty break, or a mid-day reset while you are working, commuting, recovering from a packed schedule, or simply trying to preserve your sanity.
Our dog walks are ideal for:
- Busy professionals with long workdays
- Medical workers and shift-based schedules
- Work-from-home clients whose dogs do not respect meetings
- Dogs who do best with consistency and routine
- Senior dogs who need gentle potty breaks
- Puppies who are still building their routine
- Households that want a professional, insured team instead of app-based guesswork
Every visit includes thoughtful care, secure leash handling, and a visit report so you know how your dog did.
In-Your-Home Pet Sitting Visits
In-your-home pet sitting visits are designed for pets who need reliable in-home care while you are at work, traveling, running errands, or away for the day. We can help with potty breaks, meals, medication routines, litter boxes, water refreshes, home checks, and basic pet care tasks.
Pet sitting visits are especially useful for:
- Vacation care
- Business travel
- Puppies and kittens
- Senior pets
- Multi-pet households
- Pets who need medication
- Pets who prefer their own home and routine
When you are traveling, we require daily visits for every full day you are gone because pets deserve consistent care, not “they’ll probably be fine” math.
Luxury Cat Care
Cats are not “low-maintenance.” Cats are discerning little home supervisors with firm preferences, sacred routines, and an uncanny ability to detect the smallest change in their environment.
Our luxury cat care is designed for cat parents who want more than a quick scoop-and-go visit. We protect your cat’s routine, monitor subtle wellness changes, keep their space tidy, and send detailed updates so you know what happened while you were away.
Luxury cat care may include:
- Feeding and fresh water
- Litter box care
- Medication, when scheduled and appropriate
- Enrichment and play
- Shy cat check-ins
- Multi-cat routine management
- Home reset tasks
- Detailed reports and photo updates
For Irvington cat parents, this is especially helpful in older homes, multi-level layouts, apartments, duplexes, and homes where access, hiding spots, and routines need to be documented clearly.

How It Works
How to Get Started
1. Schedule a Meet & Greet
Use the Get Started button to request a meet and greet. This helps us learn about your pets, your home, your routine, and whether we are the right fit.
2. We Confirm Availability
Once we receive your request, we confirm whether we have availability in your area and send your Time To Pet welcome email.
3. Complete Your Client Profile
Before the meet and greet, you will set up your Time To Pet account and add important details about your pets, home access, veterinary information, emergency contacts, and care instructions.
4. We Meet You and Your Pets
At the meet and greet, we review routines, access, pet personalities, medication needs, safety notes, and any household details we need to know before care begins.
5. Request Visits in Time To Pet
Once you are approved as a client, you can request visits through Time To Pet. We will review and confirm based on availability.
We May Be a Great Fit If You…
- Want dependable, professional pet care in your home
- Prefer consistency over app-based randomness
- Care about detailed communication
- Have a dog who needs routine walks or potty breaks
- Have a cat who deserves more than “food, scoop, bye”
- Travel for work or fun and want your pets’ routines protected
- Live in a home where access details matter
- Have an older Irvington home with very specific instructions
- Want a bonded, insured team with real systems behind the scenes
We may not be the right fit if you are looking for occasional last-minute care with no meet and greet, shared care with another sitter, or visits where some household pets are excluded from service.
Built for Real-Life Irvington Pet Care
Irvington pet care can be beautifully specific.
A dog may need a structured walk around busy streets. A cat may hide in a second-floor bedroom of a historic home and require a flashlight check under the bed. A duplex may have a side entrance that looks exactly like the neighbor’s. A parking plan may matter. A lockbox location may matter. A gate latch definitely matters.
And sometimes, yes, the back door only opens if you lift and pull at the exact same time.
This is why Frisky Business Pet Care is detail-heavy in the best possible way.
We document what matters so your pet’s care does not depend on memory, luck, or “I’m pretty sure this is right.”
