About: I’ve had dogs and cats all my life. I’ve potty trained them, taught them how to walk with a leash, taught them tricks like sit stay and say your prayers, and too many to say. I will spoil your fur babies like I do mine. You would never have any worries while you’re away they will be in good hands. I love and enjoy being around dogs and or cats. I’d send you videos and or pictures of your fur baby. Some owners have their fur babies on a schedule if so I will do the same. if there is a park nearby I’d probably take them there. But first I would ask the owner what they would like me to do sense it is their pet. I'm retired so I'm flexible. My routine is the fur babies routine. I'd like to keep it that way for them, so I would need to know. I have a fenced in yard, not big for big dogs tho. They will be fed, played with and cuddled. If they need to be caged I have a large one for their comfort.

Ashlee is great! I had to unexpectedly leave work and come home for a few minutes so I ran into Ashlee who was walking LiLi. When LiLi saw me, she got excited and was pulling hard. Ashlee handled all 80lbs of her pulling with ease and had her back under control in a few short seconds. Will continued to use Ashlee for sure!

Emily is the best! She is amazing with my dog Finn, and I know he is in good hands when she walks or stays with him. I appreciate Emily’s flexibility and her prompt and clear communication. She is not only caring and compassionate, but also trustworthy and conscientious when it comes to my dog and my home. She goes above and beyond. I am so happy to have found her and HIGHLY recommend her.

About: Hello, my name’s Anna. I have been taking care of dogs since I was 26. My family got a golden doodle several years ago and he has definitely been a joy and a task. Having a dog such as mine has made me more comfortable in my dog caring skills and fairly knowledgeable about what needs dogs have. I’m also very well equipped to handle puppies as I recently got a cocker spaniel several months ago. But given that, my passion for dogs continues to grow. I now as an independent adult have 2 dogs who I’ve had the pleasure of raising as puppies to where they are at now. I work full time but like to stay active and adding furry friends to the mix on my days off is no big task. I would love to see more dog friends and help them socialize and make someone’s life easier. I don’t have a fenced in back yard, but I am capable of taking dogs on as many walks as needed. I am also capable of putting dogs in a crate and preparing them for crating as long as needed.

Heather does outstanding with my two girls! My littlest baby lupita who has always been very fearful of strangers absolutely loves her. She usually takes a while to warm up to new people but met heather the first day and loved her. My oldest girl Nana is a big love bug so she of course had to be all over her the first day she met her. Heather made the process of trusting someone other than myself to love and care for my babies as I would a very easy and stressless process. She accommodated all the special needs of my girls, checked in frequently, and answered any questions I had. She was very flexible with her schedule when a change of walking time was needed. I have nothing but good things to say about heather and could not have picked a better person to trust my baby girls with.

About: I love being a pet sitter because I’m just so passionate about dogs (and all other animals too)! Nothing makes me happier than spending time getting to know them and caring for them, so being a sitter really is a dream come true for me. Dedicating my time to keeping them safe, happy, and healthy is always a rewarding experience. Dogs bring so much joy and happiness to our lives, and I love contributing to that, being part of their lives, and giving back all the love they give us! I have years of experience of professional pet sitting/boarding/dog walking in addition to volunteering at various animal shelters. I’m well-versed in obedience and leash training, and am a skilled practitioner of positive reinforcement methods. I enjoy walking a variety of dogs - all breeds, ages, temperaments, personalities, shapes, and sizes - to continuously learn about, and deepen my understanding of canine behavior. I'm also well acquainted with the gamut of leashes, collars, and harnesses out there, and have experience leash training dogs of all ages. On walks, we will bond, learn, communicate, exercise, explore, and always have lots of fun! I always like to schedule a meet-and-greet when taking on a new client, because it’s a great opportunity for us to meet and make sure we are all a good fit for one another. When I meet a dog for the first time, I bring treats (always being mindful to check with the owner about allergies first, of course). Reading the dog’s body language and behavior, I adapt to whatever makes them most comfortable, communicating that I’m happy to be the new best friend! I like getting as much information on each canine client before caring for them – anything and everything from what they love to do, what their favorite toy is, to dietary needs/restrictions and overall personality. The more I know, the better! I don’t prefer any breed preferences; I love them all! During our time together, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Providing high-quality care fueled by my love for animals is the name of my game, so I take to heart the responsibility of keeping pets happy and healthy. I pride myself on providing loving, patient, and professional care that caters to each dog's unique personality, specific needs, and favorite activities. Establishing meaningful relationships with owners and pets, rooted in trust, respect and understanding, is at the heart of my pet care approach. I always aim to give high-quality care, and look forward to providing the best experience imaginable! I’ll always be available if you ever have to get in touch with me for any reason before, during, or after a stay, and I’ll make sure you’re kept up to date on every important detail as well. I love sending owners pictures of their pups having fun, so you can definitely look forward to that as well!

Austin and Hannah are very trustworthy and reliable people! They have a fur baby of their own and treat my girl like she is theirs. My wife and I work about 45 mins from home, so we asked Austin and Hannah to drop in a take Kalani out for an hour. We trust them with a key to our apartment, and everything has worked out smoothly. Definitely 5 out of 5 stars!

About: My family always had a pet dog. As a kid I would feed and walk dogs in the neighborhood while they were out of town. As I grew older I would stay at family or friend's homes if they went out of town. I'm in search of a similar situation in South Bend - dog walking and light housework included! Weekdays I can stop in and let the dog(s) out for bathroom breaks. On weekends/evenings I can stay at your home so that the dog is familiar and will make myself available 100% during that time. I prefer to stay or drop in to my client's home. I find that the dog is more familiar/comfortable this way too. I am happy to do a test run so that everyone feels comfortable/familiar!

About: I’ve owned dogs & cats all my life. I absolutely adore fur babies and can’t get enough of them. I have 2 cats of my own as well! I currently am working full time . With Wednesday and Saturdays off. I am available to stay at pet owners home if dog sitting . I am also able to check in on cats everyday as well.

I am also willing to be flexible as well if I have time in advance to try and work something out with my schedule at work! When I pet sit, I make sure dogs/cats have enough food water and toys. I enjoy playing with the animals as well as making sure I am doing the required tasks the owner has asked. I clean my cats litter box daily and when sitting for dogs I make sure I take dogs out multiple times or when Owener ask. I also love going on walks with dogs!
