About: I have a two dogs and a cat. I've fostered for different rescues in the area and can provide references upon request. We've had every type of pup here and haven't ever had to turn one away. I have areas separated by gates for our cat friends to feel secure and rest if needed. I have two litter boxes, one on each level. My pup is Ollie, a yellow lab born around 2014. He was a rescue from Homeward Bound animal shelter and is the best boy! Paddy (Padfoot), my Labradooodle was born around 2021 and has such a sweet disposition! He was also adopted from Homeward Bound. I've also fostered dogs through SBARC and for Homeward bound. I love helping our furry friends feel comfortable and loved.

“Rascal had so much fun spending the day with Maria and her family. Really felt like I was leaving Rascal at his second home. Will definitely be coming back to Maria!”

“Ingrid was available on short notice. We were traveling to South Bend for my specialist doctor's appointment and Gili had to come with us as the drive was 4 hours and we came up the night prior. Since the appointment was in the afternoon, we couldn't leave Gili in the hotel. Ingrid took Gili in and watched him for my 4-hour appointment. We appreciate it so much! I received an adorable photo of him with her Christmas tree. He looks like he had a great time!”

“We were very pleased with the care our beagle received. Her back yard is fenced which allowed Spencer to be outside without a leash, which he loves. Will use her again, absolutely!”

“Sam absolutely loves animals! She has 3 dogs herself and is always going above and beyond for their care. She properly feeds her dogs, lets them outside to go potty, plays with them, and gives them all of her love! She has previously owned a cat, who she loved for unconditionally. She has had experience with hamsters and ferrets as well. I personally believe Sam is prepared to be a superb dog watcher, or any other animal.”

“Lydia was clearly comfortable with dogs and we felt confident in her day care (1 day) for our dachshund. I would contact her again. She sent pictures throughout the day and was very responsive with communication.”

“Kimberly was great. Very accommodating to my dog's needs, very attentive, communicative, and have me regular updates on how my dog was doing in her care. Her yard was good, her dog incredibly friendly and mine got along with him instantly. I will absolutely leave my dog with Kimberly and her family again.”

“Kaley is the perfect sitter! She is extremely knowledgeable and attentive. She is always loving and comforting to our 14 year old chihuahua who can be quite the handful at times. Kaley also sends photo updates while we are gone to reassure us that she is having a great time. We highly recommend her to everyone!”

About: I've been taking care of my own and others' pets since I was a baby! I've trained a few puppies on how to sit and stay, come here, and generally behaving better! I promise I'll ensure your pets are not only safe but happy! Please note that I don't accept German Shepherds under 3 years old. I've had too many bad experiences with them. I'm currently looking through some education and career options, so I'm home all week long. I go to sleep and wake up after everyone else in my family, so we can let your dog out to go potty on a very consistent basis. All animals in my care will be provided with an AirTag to ensure they can be easily located should anything happen. I have a fenced-in yard, two dogs, and three cats to keep your pets entertained and exercising. My dogs are super friendly and the cats don't bother anyone.

“Sarah has always been the girl that pets run up to in a crowd! They absolutely love her. Sarah is the fist person I recommend when I get asked who they should ask to sit their dogs. She’s super friendly to the pets she’s sat with and takes great care of them!”

“Julie is very comfortable around dogs, and dogs like her! She has a dog of her own that she takes excellent care of, and she has a good sense of how to keep control when necessary. She would be perfect as a dog sitter, and I would trust her with any of my own pets.”

“Valerie has always been amazing with my dog. Whether she’s walking or watching Moka for a longer time, she always does an amazing job and always sends updates. My dog absolutely loves her.”
