About: Hello! My name is Marlie and I have been working professionally with dogs for three years in a boarding facility. I absolutely love my job as a kennel technician and I want to expand that love into my community through Rover! I have experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages, as well as experience in medication administration. Feel free to reach out with any questions, I would love to love your furry friend! I have a full time job and I am a part-time college student, but I’m not too busy to love your pets! I am available from 4:30 am-6:30 am and 3:30 pm- 9:00 pm daily! I have several years of professional experience and training in pet care (specifically dogs.) I am extremely mindful of dog body language, and I pride myself on my organization skills and attention to detail- I am determined to provide exceptional service to you and your beloved pet!

About: I grew up on a farm and I was always finding animals to bring home amd take care of. I have lots of experience with kittens, puppies, goats, and cows. Pill and medication giver expert. CPR trained. I currently work 3 days a week and I'm home most other days. We typically spend our free time of walks or hikes in the area as there as plenty beautiful trails near by. My husband who also loves animals and has many years of experience, lets the dogs out during lunch time, on days that I work. I have a large fenced yard and a friendly dog to play and keep other pets company. We also have a large basement where we can separate the animals as needed. As well as kennels.

About: Growing up, I have always had 2-3 dogs in our household, and have showed them the upmost love, care, and affection as possible. I have grown up with many Chocolate Labs as well as a Sheltie and a Havanese. I’ve worked with all ages, from puppy to 16 years old. My dogs have always been and still are viewed as family which is why, as a dog owner, I would want the most trustworthy, compassionate, and responsible person taking care of them. I can assure you that I will treat your dog the way they are supposed to be treated, as family. I am available after 12:30 PM in the afternoon to walk your dog, or check up on them so they have some company throughout the day! My times are pretty flexible, so please reach out if you need the times to be flexible. While taking care of a pet, I think it it’s important to make sure they are comfortable. Making sure their water is full, fed on time, depending on the dog, getting the right exercise, and of course giving the pet love and attention. I love to play fetch with dogs and take them on walks so they can get outside and enjoy the outdoors.

About: Ive never been able to have a dog of my own, so ive spent my time growing up caring for others. Ive been dog sitting since I was little. My first official job was at a dog hotel, I worked there for a little over 2 years! I also worked for a dog walking/ pet sitting company! I just moved back into town and have been looking for a job, my schedule is free other than classes I have mon-thu! I would be available for pet sitting any day of the week! I will follow directions provided for each service. I have years of experience and know how to handle any situation given to me to ensure the safety of your pet!


“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!”



About: Avid pet lover who desires to make sure that you and your pet have a stress free day while you're away. I have a background as a vet tech as well as working with and caring for horses, dogs and cats in a boarding environment. I have experience caring for exotic pets as well . I will strive to provide the best care possible for your beloved pets and care for them like one of my own.

About: I’ve had a dog in my life since I was a baby. I’ve had everything from rottweilers, a boxer, and a pit bull all the way down to our miniature dachshund, Obree. My sister owned a dog boarding kennel and german shepherd rescue, and I used to help there with as many as 70 dogs at a time! I often do day care and boarding for a friend’s dog as well as drop in visits for neighbors. I am currently a stay at home mom with two daughters in elementary school full time. I have lots of free time! Even if my daughters aren’t in school, they would love to tag along and help. We have a fenced in yard for the dogs to run around and enjoy. Our dogs are fed twice a day and have water freely available. We do have dog crates to separate dogs if they don’t get along and for sleeping at night. Sasha, our bigger dog, generally sleeps on one of the dog beds at night, but does join us in bed during “super scary” thunderstorms or to celebrate late night fireworks around holidays. We live in a quiet neighborhood with sidewalks that are great for taking the dogs for a walk. When doing day care, the dogs are given full attention, and snuggles are expected!

About: I am a lifetime pet lover. I have taken care of animals for over 25 years including senior dogs. I have a very pet friendly home where your dog will be treated like one of the family. I currently work from home which allows me to give your pet many potty breaks and walks around our neighborhood. I also have a fenced in yard so that they can get some fresh air throughout the day. I have a fenced in yard and 2 fur babies to keep your dog company. I like to take a lot of walks around the neighborhood and cuddle on the couch with my doggos.

“Have a wonderful break and thank you for taking care of Tango.”



“I feel so much better knowing that my fur babies are taken care of during the day with love and their walks! I feel like my babies are in the best hands with Michaela and am so blessed to have her!”


“Joan has been amazing with my dogs and so helpful to me with helping me get in their daily exercise while I’ve been expecting a new baby and my busy schedule. The girls are always so excited to see her and love their walks!”


About: Whether it be dogs, cats, horses, cows, or any animal in-between, I've been raised around animals all of my life. I've had a dog that I've cared for on my own since I was nine years old and couldn't imagine my life without one. With over 15 years of pet care experience, I'm more than comfortable handling your pet from the puppy/kitten stage to their golden senior years, and have experience with medication administration and special care attention. I currently have a three year old Australian Shepherd of my own, and so have no issue handling dogs with a stronger need for mental stimulation and exercise. Whether it be a simple check-in at the home, to a walk around the neighborhood, to taking your dog to the local park or joining me on a run, I'm happy to ensure that we keep your dog to the schedule he/she prefers at your comfort level! If you happen to have a feline friend instead, I have several years experience babysitting for the neighborhood and college friends' cats, and am more than happy to watch over your fur baby while you're away.

“Sophia was great. Dexter took to her right away and enjoyed his walks. Will definitely be booking again. Thanks Sophia”


About: Having grown up with pets, I have a lifelong passion for animal care. From a young age, my siblings and I took on the responsibility of feeding, bathing, walking, playing with, and cleaning up after our pets. This experience taught me the importance of attentive and loving care. Additionally, my neighbors entrusted me with their beloved pets when they’ve gone on vacation. I’ve experience with rabbits, have one currently named Ms Bunny, she is eight. I had a guinea pig, named Master Splinter that lived to be 6. Kept and maintained a fish tank in my mid to late 20’s, contained lots of neon tetra, ghost shrimp, and a dwarf gourami! During the school year I work at my local elementary, I am an early riser and always available for morning walks or drop in visits! During the summer I have full availability to ensure loving care for your pets! My love for animals motivates me to ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve. Rest assured, your furry friends will be well cared for under my watch. I am happy to care for your pets in their home where they are most comfortable. I love going for walks, playing with toys, and/or lounging around when it’s quiet.

About: Animals are everything to me. Everyday I work with animals, Im a trained vet assistant who is in school to be a vet tech. I have fostered both young and old. If anything were to happen to your pets I can take them into my work place and discuss treatment over the phone. I work full time but my husband and I have every good schedule on letting out dogs. I also have a job that allows me to clock out to let them out midday. My animals are normal fed 7-9 am and 6-8 pm. My house is baby proofed as some of my babies are too smart for their own good. But I do have cameras to be able to see them and alarm systems. All of my pets have been around fosters of all shapes and sizes so pets coming into my home need to be comfortable with that.

About: I’ve been a huge animal lover since I was a child. I absolutely love my fur baby she is my entire world. I don’t have kids so she is literally my baby. I make sure anytime I’m dog sitting all the fur babies are loved, cuddled and cared for. All my friends and family always call me to walk their pets ,for feeding, potty breaks and overnight stays. I currently work a full time 40 hour job at a psychiatric center here in south bend but I’m free most weekends starting Friday after 6:30pm all the way to Sunday! I do have plenty of time to take off work if I need to cover an emergency during the week, I am more than willing to do that I will mostly be sitting at clients homes, but if I dog sit at my home I do have a big yard but dogs will always be leashed for potty breaks because the yard is not fenced and I’d rather be safe than sorry, also if your dog needs a crate I do have a medium sized one from when my baby was spayed. I have AC and lots of comfy doggy beds and spots for dog to lay. I have a cute yorkie who is very playful, but also keeps to herself.
