House Sitting in North Shore Triangle, South Bend, IN

About: Growing up in the country, I have been an animal caretaker for years. While my personal pets were mostly rabbits and dogs, I served as the community rescue, rehab, and release person for wildlife in the surrounding area. Whether they're young or old, need medication or a specific diet, enjoy chewing everything in sight, or need lots of exercise and love, I am grateful to be able to care for your furry friend(s) in any manner they require. Currently, I work Monday through Friday morning and afternoon, but am completely available on weekends. I can make weekday stop ins during work hours and stay the night any day. I am extremely attentive to detail, whether it be your normal routine/schedule for pet care, providing medication accurately and easily, or double-checking that your pet remains safe on walks or in the home. I will encourage your pets to join me on the furniture if an owner allows, make sure a coat or booties get put on if needed, and send as many pictures as their loved ones want. I treat your pets like they're my best friend too!

“We are so extremely pleased with the petsitting services Kyra provided while staying overnight to care for our 11 year old 60 lb lab mix Macy who had surgery three weeks prior. Kyra is so very kind and wonderful with our dog and she administered Macy’s daily arthritis meds. I know Macy misses Kyra already and so do I. Do not hesitate to have Kyra assist with your house and petsitting needs. She’s wonderful and we highly recommend her!”

“Nicolas responded promptly to communications and did what we'd asked, even dealt with a rather complicated feeding process with grace! As a bonus, he was even already familiar with Litter Robots. Thanks for taking good care of our pets while we were away.”

“Casey did the most fabulous and wonderful job dog-walking and house-sitting with my 'pack' of three mongrels!! Thank you, Casey! She was communicative, friendly, and kept the house immaculate while I was away. My three dogs are a lot to handle, truly, and required many walks per day, which she handled like a pro. Plus, Casey had great ideas for my dogs' overall wellbeing after spending so much time with them. She's a natural dog 'mom' for sure! My babies very calm and happy when I returned home. Casey made my work trip abroad 1000x easier. I will definitely be booking her services the next time I need help!”

“Katherine is the best! She kept our animals very happy and would send pictures of them out of walks or playing. She is responsive and very kind! I would hire her again. She left our house very neat and tidy.”

“Janelle was great and we look forward to booking with her again soon! This was her first time staying with our pups and she took great care of them. Almost positive they were hoping it was her instead of us when we got home :)”

About: I’ve had dogs for over 10 years, especially small dogs, as well as cats for the last three. I enjoy taking care of all creatures, great and small, and I live in a neighborhood perfect for walking. I do have a standard 9 to 5 jobs, but they are OK with pets in the building. I am easily able to take them outside for potty break. I have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe. It is the perfect area to go for a walk. There is an open space in the middle of the neighborhood. Great for playing fetch. I have aI have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe.

“One of our best experience on Rover with Rachel! She took care of our cats so well and even kept the house in perfect shape while we were out for a long vacation. I would totally recommend her for any of your house stays or visits. She's timely, organized and very particular about giving medicines, treats or even playing with your kitties. ❤️”

“Alyssa did an awesome job house sitting with our 2 dogs while we were away for 5 days. The dogs bonded with her right away, and she took great care of them. When she came for a meet and greet she was very attentive in learning about their personal needs. She was also very responsive via text and sent updates throughout the stay. Our house was in great shape when we got home. We would definitely rebook with Alyssa in the future and she has our full recommendation!”

“Camryn was wonderful caring for our pups at our place. We were out of town for a wedding for 4 days and you wouldn't even have known anyone was at our place. I would highly recomend having Camryn look after your home and/or dogs.”

“Candice did a fantastic job with my pup Bo. By the pictures sent to me he appeared to be having a blast. Once she left he was one tired pup. He went to the bedroom to lay down and I hardly heard a peep out of him the rest of the day/night. Thanks for making his day fun!”
