Dog Walking in Near Westside Neighborhood, South Bend, IN

“Emily helped care for my German Shepherd puppy for about 6 months while I was at work or otherwise tied up. She walked, fed, played, and checked on him per my request/need. She did very well with a high energy working dog.”

“Rodina is the best dog walker. Her love for dogs is definitely a positive trait. She is a very responsible and caring individual. Would make an amazing dog walker. I certainly recommend her to take care of your dog and I trust Rodina with my dog!”

“My dog is so picky, and she was so patient with him! Took care of him like he was her own dog. Showed him love, and he was just as excited to see her as he is to see me, so that says a lot about Kaitlyn! I will definitely consider her in the future if I need someone to care for and walk my fur baby. Excellent service!”

“Thank you so much for taking great care of Rudy! It made my day a bit easier knowing someone was stopping in to look after him. Appreciate the pictures and follow up message! Will definitely use you again!”

About: I grew up with family dogs my whole life, but have taken care of my own dogs for a combination of six years! In addition, I babysit for a few families and they all have dogs that I watch, care for, and entertain as well! I work until noon every weekday, but I am fairly available every afternoon and evening! For dogs staying over, I am gone no longer than 3 and a half hours every week day at a time! I have a fenced small back yard that the dogs are free to play in! We also have a one story open house with lots of room and dog toys to play with! I also have two playful dogs that would love to keep your dogs entertained! One of my dogs is an 8 month anxious puppy that is still getting used to other people and dogs. She is anxious upon first meeting new people and dogs, but is not aggressive and is fine after getting used to new dogs. We also have a crate and gates that we can put up around the house if needed! Finally, we have a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walking dogs!

“Our family has a 14 pound Shih-Poo! Brooke is just absolutely wonderful with her! Brooke is so reliable. She dog sits for us quite often and we honestly couldn’t trust a better person to care for Ginger! She is so routined and organized, she makes sure Ginger has plenty of outside time, when the weather allows. Brooke even went the extra mile in helping us find an affordable veterinarian in the area! Brooke is the true definition of a loving pet caregiver!”

“I had Sophia walk my two dogs for a week straight and my dogs love her. She sent many pictures of the pups and I could tell that my pups love her.”

“Maria is a great pet taker! She has 3 golden doodles that I have seen get the best care, love and attention needed. She is someone I would absolutely trust around my animals.”

About: I have had a dog in the house since birth, so I’ve had no choice but to absolutely love them! I’m obsessed with meeting new dogs anywhere and playing with them, and I like to make sure a dog enjoys and remembers their time with me! I am currently a college student so any free time on weekdays I have, but mostly on the weekends I will have time to walk or make visits! I take my own pup on walks and used to walk my neighbors dog for a year. I have also watched larger dogs and cats for friends in the summer.

“Haley was great! You could tell that she really loves and cares for your pets. She was very fast to respond and made sure I was updated with lots of photos. I would definitely rebook her and would highly recommend her.”

“She was great with my pups!”

About: Your pet is welcome in my home! They will get lots of TLC, play time, feeding, walking & love. My house is small but live on 2 acres in the country. My yard is not fenced so I walk your pets on a leash & there are trails in the woods where they love to walk too. I also have a tie out if they dont do well on a leash & some are fine to free roam but they are never left unattended. I can take 2 small to medium dogs or 2 large or 1 giant dog. I will also transport your pet(s) to & from your home if needed. This will be an additional fee. I have been professionally petsitting for the past 17 years. References are supplied upon request. Any cancellation less than 7 days before stay begins will result in no refund provided.

“Maria is an amazing lady who is trustworthy and dependable. I have known her for 12yrs and whenever we needed help with our dogs she did a great job. Showed up when she said and did above what was expected.”

“Allison did a wonderful job watching our three dogs! She was very flexible, responsive, and kept us updated with lots of pictures. She cleaned up after herself and kept our house tidy while taking care of the dogs. The dogs seemed very well taken care of and were happy when we returned! We will definitely be using Allison again.”

“Thanks for all your help.”

“As a pet owner and a friend of Ingrid G., I highly recommend her as a pet sitter or dog walker on Rover.com. Ingrid is a true animal lover and has a special connection with pets. She is responsible, reliable, and always goes above and beyond to make sure pets are happy and well-cared for. Ingrid is also a great communicator and will keep you informed about your pet's well-being while you are away. She is patient and attentive to pets' needs, and has the skills to handle any situation that may arise. I trust Ingrid with my own pets and know that she will provide the highest level of care for your furry family members too.”

About: I have been taking care of all kinds of pets since I was 8. I have a German Shorthaired pointer now so I can definitely handle some high energy dogs. I have many other pets including a cat, Guinea pigs, some reptiles, and fish so I am ready for anything! I am currently going to school to be a veterinarian so you can imagine how much I love pets! I have taken care of plenty of pets owned by friends and family and I am excited to have the opportunity to take care of yours! I am currently out of school for the summer so I have plenty of free time to play with, walk, feed, and watch your pets! I can’t currently board pets but I am willing to do whatever is needed for your pets in your home! Just give me instructions and I can do just about anything!
