Dog Walkers in Michiana, MI

“Brooke is super friendly, and responsible. She came out to visit us the day before the dog walking appointments and my dog ran right to her which was a comforting sign. We were traveling through the area in our RV and felt completely comfortable leaving our dog in Brooke’s care while we visited Chicago for the day. We highly recommend Brooke! She’s energetic, and perfectly capable of caring for big, strong and sweet pups. 5 stars! ⭐️”

About: I have extensive experience caring for a variety of pets, especially cats, and I bring a calm, attentive, and loving approach to every visit. From feeding and medication to playtime and companionship, I tailor each visit to meet the specific needs of every pet. As a lifelong animal lover and dedicated pet parent, I understand how important it is to maintain routines and create a stress, free environment while owners are away. Whether caring for energetic kittens, shy cats, or other small animals, I treat every pet like family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because it aligns with what I already love doing, spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for, as well as caring for my three fur babies. I plan my schedule to allow plenty of time for visits, giving each pet the attention they need without feeling rushed. Whether it’s early morning feedings, midday check-ins, or evening cuddles, I enjoy building consistent routines that keep pets comfortable and owners reassured. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s part of how I live. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines, aiming to keep everything as familiar and consistent as possible for the pet. I follow detailed instructions, give updates to the owner, and make sure each visit includes essentials like feeding, playtime, and litter or potty breaks. I also keep an eye out for any changes in behavior or health. Whether in my home or theirs, I treat every pet like family, with love, patience, and dependable care.

About: I have worked with and cared for all kinds of animals including dogs, cats, birds, and common fish. I have been pet sitting for various neighbors and family friends over the years, and I’ve loved every minute of it. Also, I own a special needs dog, so I have a fair understanding of dogs who need a little extra care! I work part time as a non medical caregiver in various clients homes in northwest Indiana. This means my schedule differs from day to day, but I often have breaks during the day between clients. This means I’ll have the means to pop in to take care of your precious animals. While I won’t be boarding in my own home, I am very used to tending to people and animals in their own homes. Every client of mine will receive nothing but the best in terms of safety, trust, and maintaining a nice environment!

About: I have always loved pet sitting, especially throughout college. I can do the basics such as walking, taking out for potty breaks, and feeding. I think the best care I can give is when I can go above and beyond the basics. Being able to love and care for your pet while you are away is something I aim for! I’m an elementary school teacher on summer break so I have open availability to watch your furry friend. We’ll soak up the summer sun together! I do have a nice small yard (fenced) and a fur baby to keep your pet company. I can easily crate your pet if needed during the day or at night.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I have experience with diabetic dogs. Dogs that need medicine. Special needs dogs. I love to play with them, walk them and I will treat them as my own. We raise horses so I have a lot of experience where you have to pay close attention so I would notice if something is off with you dog and I would address it immediately. I currently work 6 hours a day so you would not have to worry about your dog. I would walk, brush, and play with your dog. I would take care of your dog as my own at your home. I would make sure they are loved like my own. If they have special needs or need shots, medicine or anything extra you can feel safe with me.

About: I have always enjoyed spending my time with animals. I got my first dog when I was in elementary school - sadly he recently passed away - but since coming to college I have been missing my sweet fur baby. Being able to play with and care for someone else's pet while also earning extra cash would be an ideal job experience for me. Getting a new pet really isn’t an option for me right now. With all the free time on my hands, and I would love to get the chance to spend it walking and playing with your fur babies! In the past, I have dog sat for other friends and family and I really enjoyed it and having the extra company is always a plus!

About: I have had a cat since I was 11, I take care of my moms dog often. I have potty trained a puppy before too I am in college but not working I am able to be called anytime to play with or take care of your sweet furr baby! I can come prepared with my own dog toys, treats, and leash if need be. I know how to use a crate if needed too.
