In-Home Pet Sitting, Midday Potty Breaks & Nail Trims in Portage, Indiana
Portage is a wonderful, active community on the south shore of Lake Michigan—and a place that truly loves its pets. From scenic walks near Portage Lakefront and Riverwalk to sunny afternoons at Founders Square Park and hikes along the Prairie Duneland Trail, this is a city where dogs and cats aren’t just pets; they’re family.
But even in a town this great, life gets busy. Whether you’re commuting down the highway, heading out for a long weekend, or planning a well-deserved vacation, you need to know your pets are safe, happy, and relaxed in their own familiar routine.
That’s where The Pet Parlor comes in.

What Our Clients Say
Pet Parlor is AWESOME! Our dog is a rescue and we adopted him in 2019. He becomes anxious with vet visits, nail trims, bath etc, so I decided to look for in home nail trims.
We found Pet Parlor on Google. I read their reviews and they were great! I reached out & Pat responded to my inquiry.
Shortly after we had an appointment for his 1st in home nail trim with Courtney, and she is FABULOUS!! Such a caring soul, our chocolate lab LOVES her! Courtney is sweet, kind, sociable and he feels so comfortable with her.
If you’re looking for in home trims, pet sitters, please give Pet Parlor a look. You’ll be happy you did!!
The Pet Parlor always goes above and beyond for my pets! I never have any worries when I travel and that is worth its weight in gold! Thank you so much!
Pat & Sylvia were wonderful! My husband & I were out for a little less than a week and were worried about our fur baby being at home without us. Our cat is just over a year old and very attached to us and he’d never been away from us for that long. I’m so grateful I found Pet Parlor. They sent photos everyday (and even a video one day), played with him, and we could see our cat warmed up to them very quickly. When we came back, everything was in order and our boy was very happy. Highly recommend this service & their affection for the animals they care for. Thank you so much, PP!
