“Madison is the best! I always feel secure leaving my pets in her care. She handles the different personalities and instructions with ease and always communicates with me along the way. I’ve booked her many times and will continue to do so.”
About: My name is Tiara and I'm a resident in Mishawaka. I have an amazing Brittany spaniel Bo and a spit fire of a cat, Bruno. I grew up with animals and both of my fur babes are rescues. Some of my favorite things are cooking, reading, swimming, trail walks, singing and of course animals. I know the feeling of guilt/stress all too well when it comes to leaving my pets to someone else's care, and I want to alleviate any of those feelings from you and your furry family members:) I work full time from home and have a flexible schedule. I'm available to accomodate mid work day, in the morning, evenings & weekends. I'll work with you any way possible. Drop ins for walks, playtime, feeding, cuddling, potty time and anything they need to tire them out and keep their mind off of missing their family. I will treat with the same care I would my own babes! Of course feeding, fresh/full water, medication administration & anything else required. If client allows, trips to the dog park or walking trails!
“Carly was amazing! My cats are usually very shy but they warmed up to her in no time! She was able to watch our babies on very short notice and made sure to send lots of pictures and videos! I will definitely rebook her for future needs.”
About: I’m a lifelong dog dad who’s raised everything from tiny puppies to wild, energetic corgis and a sweet Aussie doodle. My wife and I currently have both, so I’m very used to high-energy breeds, stubborn personalities, and dogs who need structure, patience, and plenty of play. I’ve also cared for our senior dog through physical therapy, mobility support, and daily medication management, so I’m comfortable with dogs who need extra attention or special routines. Over the years, I’ve trained multiple dogs to behave reliably off‑leash, and I take pride in helping dogs feel confident, safe, and understood. I’m home full‑time right now, supporting my wife’s business and caring for our own pups, which means I’m flexible, responsible, and able to give your dog the kind of consistent, attentive care that makes them feel right at home. I’m also happy to care for cats with the same patience and attention I give dogs. We have two cats of our own with completely different personalities, so I’m comfortable with shy, independent cats as well as social, curious ones. I understand their routines, boundaries, and quirks, and I make sure they feel safe, respected, and cared for while you’re away. I’m home full‑time right now, caring for our dogs and supporting my wife’s business, so my schedule is very flexible throughout the day. I just ask for at least a day’s notice so I can plan around our home routine, but once scheduled, I’m able to give your pets consistent attention and care. Even though I’m home most of the time, I can be out for a couple of hours when needed, and I’m comfortable coordinating visits, walks, or drop‑ins around that. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while keeping communication clear and easy. Your pet’s safety is always my first priority. I keep a calm, structured home where routines are followed, boundaries are respected, and every animal gets the attention they need to feel secure. I’m experienced with puppies, high‑energy dogs, seniors who need extra support, and cats with all kinds of personalities, so I’m comfortable adjusting care to match each pet’s needs. I maintain a clean, pet‑friendly environment with safe spaces for resting, supervised play, and outdoor time when appropriate. I’m reliable, communicative, and always mindful of each pet’s comfort level. Whether your pet needs medication, extra patience, or just a steady, reassuring presence, I make sure they’re cared for with consistency, respect, and genuine love.
About: I’ve had a dog for quite some time and I take care of her with my whole heart! She’s older now so I’m good with older & younger dogs! I’m currently not working so I have open availability and can work with basically anything! Let me know how I can help you and I’ll do my best to accommodate! I absolutely adore animals and I will always meet them where they are! They come first and I will put my full effort into taking care of them and developing a healthy and trusting relationship with them!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Mishawaka
My absolute favorite thing about Jaclyn is her consistency. I know I can count on her to provide great care to Severus and Draco. She is great with them and takes care to ensure they are safe and loved while I can’t be there with them. She is hands down our only preferred sitter. 💕
Izzy, is wonderful. I have 2 cats and shadow came right to her and begged for belly rubs. Mischief is a lot more shy so it took him more time to show himself. Izzy sent me pictures and updates on how the boys were doing. I highly recommend Izzy for all your pet needs. I will definitely be using her again. Thank you Izzy, you were a life saver.
Kennedy was incredibly accommodating and communicative during a week that had some unexpected logistical hurdles. Even with a delay in house access on my end, she made sure my three cats were well-cared for, spending extra time with them once she could get inside. The photo updates were great and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking her again!

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
