We could not have asked for a better house sitter than Nicole! Where do I even start…Nicole was very communicative, respectful, and took such great care of our puppy. She kept up with our puppy’s training, took her for long walks, and went above and beyond in meeting our puppy’s needs. On top of it all, she took great care of the house. I could not recommend Nicole enough, and we will certainly be using her again in the future!

Alyssa has stayed with our 2 cats twice now and we are very happy with her! She took great care of the cats, gave them plenty of attention and love, and communicated with pictures throughout her stay. She was also very neat and left our house in great condition. We will definitely book her again if we need an in-home catsitter!

Janelle was great and we look forward to booking with her again soon! This was her first time staying with our pups and she took great care of them. Almost positive they were hoping it was her instead of us when we got home :)

Nicholas did an AMAZING job watching our little dachshund Moo and our apartment when we went away for a week to Hawaii! He did everything we asked and much more! Nicholas is so nice and so professional and I would recommend him to anyone! He is now our go-to dog/house sitter!

Ashley did a good job cat sitting and looking after our kitten for four days. She was responsive over messaging and even dropped by for a quick visit a few days before we went away to get acquainted with the house and our kitten. We felt she is a trustworthy person. Thank you, Ashley!

Chloe did an amazing job with our two pups. One of our dogs had a last minute injury and had to take medicine while we were gone and Chloe handled it very well! She left our house in great condition and our boys were very happy to have her company. Chloe also sent a ton of photos to us which really helped me as this was our first time leaving our dogs with a sitter.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my five years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs. I have worked with everything from energetic puppies, who require lots of playtime and consistency, to senior dogs who need patient, gentle care and a predictable routine. I am attentive, reliable, and committed to making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I take the time to learn every pet's unique personality and tailor their care to meet their specific needs. I am currently a college student in South Bend, IN, and I am available to provide both dog sitting & house sitting services. I have experience caring for pets and maintaining a safe, clean home environment, and I am happy to accommodate your pet's routine, energy level, and specific needs. If you're traveling for the holidays or simply need an extra hand, I would love to help ensure your pets and home are well cared for. In your home, I care for your pets the same way I care for my own, by following their normal routine, giving them lots of love, and making sure they feel safe in their familiar space. I stick closely to your feeding, walking, and play schedules, and I am attentive to any special needs or instructions you share. I keep your home clean, respectful, and secure. I am happy to help with small tasks like watering plants or bringing in mail. I want both you and your pet to feel comfortable while you're apart.

About: I love dogs! I have always had a dog (or multiple!) in my life and have dealt with every problem imaginable. Whether big or small, a young puppy or an older sweetheart senior, it would be a pleasure for me to help others out with your dogs too! I know I would be able to provide the best care for your furry friend. Right now, I’m in a flexible stage of life where I should have time available all week. Mid-day works especially well, but again can work with what you need. Whatever routines, necessities, or even quirks you use in your home, I’m happy to do the same! I want you to feel secure and satisfied.

About: I've always had several cats, dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, at a time & been passionate about animals. Friends & family have always known me to be an animal whisperer & entrusted me with caring for their pets while they're away since I was a teenager! I have experience working in a veterinary setting as an assistant, working in a doggie daycare as a “rufferee”, & personal experience with animals from newborn to seniors with health issues. I understand how to properly administer medications & shots. I occasionally study animal psychology during my free time. I create my own schedule and am very flexible. I love staying busy between my two passions, doing hair and spending time bonding with animals! I currently offer regular walks and daily drop ins. I respect each client’s home as if it were my own and am sure to note and follow any rules you have.

About: I've always had the ability to easily connect with dogs. I've spent the past ten years walking and socializing rescue animals as a volunteer at the Humane Society. I've worked with every age range, from puppies to senior dogs in hospice care. I bring that experience with me each and every time I work with an animal, as each and every animal is unique. Pet care is a part of my everyday life. I'm currently working part-time, leaving me with plenty of time during the day to take care of both my animal, and yours. I also volunteer my free time at the Humane Society of Elkhart County. Communication is key. I'll set up guidelines and boundaries with you ahead of time, making sure each animal has their specific needs met during the visit. Leashes will always be used on walks and doors will always be closed and locked when not in use. Do you have certain areas, rooms, or furniture that are off limits? Boundaries will be set up and respected to ensure that both your pets and home will be treated with respect.

Candice did a fantastic job with my pup Bo. By the pictures sent to me he appeared to be having a blast. Once she left he was one tired pup. He went to the bedroom to lay down and I hardly heard a peep out of him the rest of the day/night. Thanks for making his day fun!

This was my second time leaving my girls with a sitter. Jacee was wonderful, and made me feel completely at ease from the moment I met her, along with my dogs. She came to meet us at our home prior, and the one dog who takes a minute to get close, quickly welcomed her. Communicated frequently, sending pictures every morning and evening, which allowed me to see how happy they were with her, and I was able to not worry about them and focus on visiting and helping my grandfather while he is recovering in another state. I am looking forward to having her come back.
