House Sitting in Keller Park, South Bend, IN

“Galilea gave me many updates, gave the dogs medication and dinner, and watched after them in really cold temperatures. Plus she left the house super clean. Thank you, Galilea!”

“Bethanie was just perfect and so caring with my overly active puppy. I was able to get out and escape the puppy blues knowing my puppy was well cared for.”

“Nicolas did a good job staying with our dog in our house on Independence Day. I will definitely book him again. He is affable and trustworthy.”

“Alyssa did an awesome job house sitting with our 2 dogs while we were away for 5 days. The dogs bonded with her right away, and she took great care of them. When she came for a meet and greet she was very attentive in learning about their personal needs. She was also very responsive via text and sent updates throughout the stay. Our house was in great shape when we got home. We would definitely rebook with Alyssa in the future and she has our full recommendation!”

Henry D.

“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!”

“Lily kept our sweet dog in our home and did a great job. She sent pics and kept us updated. We felt so relieved to have found her and had a great trip knowing our dog was in such good hands. Would highly recommend her.”

Beverly R.

“Absolutely wonderful! My husband and I felt very comfortable with Rachel and the dogs liked her from the start! Rachel kept us updated the entire time we were gone and even went the extra mile to water my plants since I was gone for so long! She even sent photos to us as she spent time with the dogs. Again, absolutely wonderful. I would recommend her to anyone with a dog, and who is picky about who they have watch their dog, as I was. Rachel was great. I will be using her again, definitely!”

Tracey P.

“Ivanis did everything this rather nervous owner asked. She even made two trips to get familiar with Piper and everything went well. I recommend without hesitation.”

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.

“Kiersten was phenomenal with my cat and dog! I could tell my pup got lots of walks and both got a lot of love and attention. Would 10/10 recommend!”

Hannah S.

“Sarah was awesome. I would highly recommend her services. She took great care of our pets and house. The whole experience couldn't have been more pleasant. If you are looking for someone to watch your pets, look no further!”

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats in the home. When I was about 8 years old, I had my first dog-sitting job! -my dad may have helped a bit. Haha! Our neighbor had a golden retriever that I watched every Christmas break for years. Since then, I’ve been dog- and cat-sitting for many others. I have the most experience with large dogs, but honestly, they don’t seem “large” to me because growing up we always had a Lab mix or Poodle. So, they’re just normal-sized in my eyes. Now I have two black labs. Layla is 8 years old, and Halo is 4 years old. I have experience administering medication and maintaining a strict feeding schedule due to my dog Halo, who unfortunately has epilepsy and cannot miss a dose of her anti-seizure medication. I am currently a stay-at-home wife and dog mom. I have a very flexible schedule, and apart from the occasional appointment, I will likely be at home all day with the dogs! We have a fenced-in backyard it’s not huge, but it’s not tiny either. Our dogs are allowed on the couch and bed, but if you prefer them off the couch and bed, I can easily keep them all on the floor while they’re here. The house has two stories, but if your dog has difficulty climbing stairs, I can comfortably stay on the main floor. We enjoy cuddling, playing tug-of-war, and a bit of fetch around the house, but if your dog needs its own space, we have extra bedrooms that can be exclusively for them!

About: I am a huge pet lover! I’ve had several pets over the years and I treat them as if they were my child. I feel as if animals should feel loved and cared for just as much as us humans. For the time being I am available ALL week including weekends. I have always had a special connection with animals. My friend of mine had a Golden Retriever and his name was Benny he was my bestfriend. We’d always spend time together and I’ve always just felt the need to look after him as if he were my own. My point is I genuinely care for animals and it’s always in my best interest to keep them safe and care for them as best as possible. I have a huge field across from my house that I walk to every morning and afternoon just to get some fresh air so daily walks and outdoor time won’t be a problem for me. I also like to have cats as my primary emotional support animal so their presence alone would be a great addition to my daily routine. There is a ginormous field across from my apartment complex for your fur companion’s enjoyment so there will be tons of outdoor and play time. I do not have a fenced yard so I will always be alongside them at the park with a secured leash of course.

About: Hello Hello! I’ve been caring for pets for 5 years - from energetic 10 week old puppies to 13 y/o senior dogs, (and many more in between!) - and I truly treat every animal like family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy pups to pets who need a little extra care or patience. Pet care is something I’m happy to incorporate into my routine! I’m currently in school, so I don’t have to work around a strict work schedule. I’m available for morning/ afternoon/ evening walks or visits, and I’m flexible with scheduling to fit your pet’s needs. Whether it’s a midday potty break and feeding or overnight care in your home, I’d be there to help make things easy and stress-free. When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping things as familiar and safe as possible. I’ll stick close to your pet’s usual routine- with feeding, walks, playtime, or medication- so they feel secure and comfortable while you’re away! I treat every home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll be mindful of your space, follow your instructions, and make sure your pet has everything they need. Whether I’m doing a quick drop-in or staying overnight, you can count on updates and photos, so you always know how things are going!

About: I have experience with animals from young to senior citizens. Big or small, cat or dog, (or chicken or cow or horse!) m, they all steal my heart. I’m happy to practice any commands you’re working on with your puppy. I love brushing cats and dogs (though I’m not a groomer!)band love a good walk, around the block kr in the trails! Most of all, I strive to maintain consistency in your pet’s routine and provide a loving and caring presence while you’re away. I’m a doctoral student with a laptop so I can do my work from anywhere! I’m available 7 days a week for drop ins or overnights. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I treat every pet and every home with respect. I offer a meet and greet prior to booking to ensure a good fit for your pets. I adhere to your pet’s normal routine to reduce stress, and I happily provide photo and video updates throughout the visit so you know they’re happy and secure . I double check safety such as doors and latches and I’m happy to bring in mail and packages so your home looks occupied while you’re away!

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.

“I have used this app throughout the years and Nicholas is by far THE BEST! He is reliable, on time, communicates very well and leaves no trace. As a matter of fact, he left our place looking better than it was when we went away. Most importantly, our dog and cat were calm and happy - they were definitely in good hands. We recommend Nicholas and hope he is available for our family again in the future.”

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.

“Abby did a great job with our dogs. She sent us pictures throughout her stay and we could tell they were happy and thriving. She cleaned up after herself, leaving our house in good shape. I would absolutely recommend Abby to take care of your pets.”
