Pet Sitting in Notre Dame

“Michelle was wonderful! She dropped in to feed & care for my Kitty while I was out of town for 10 days. First time I’ve left him alone with a “stranger” but he came out from hiding and took to her from day one! That’s never happened even with family members he has seen previously! Loved the daily message and photos. I highly recommend Michelle. She can be trusted to care for your special pet and goes above & beyond to report potential concerns with the house/property too ! She will definitely be my first choice for future trips!”

“Janelle is so great to have cat sit for us. She’s reliable and takes the best pictures of our pets to send to us. I highly recommend her and will be using her again.”

“Our other sitter fell through at the last minute so we reached out to Christina to see if she could watch our kitties and thankfully she said yes! She took excellent care of them and we could not recommend her more!”

“Emily was amazing with our cat. She seemed to genuinely enjoy playing with her, left great notes, and was very reliable and communicative. Could not have asked for a better caretaker of our sweet kitty over the holidays.”

Kristin S.

“Heather checked in on my cat once a day, for a total of 9 days while I was out the country. She made me feel at ease knowing everything back home was okay. My cat quickly came out his shell and was playful and talkative with her which let me know he was comfortable and content with her. I appreciate her and would definitely consider using again in the future. So I absolutely would recommend her to others.. Thanks again Heather, was a pleasure meeting and having you.”

About: I have taken care of animals from dogs to horses since I was 10. I have my bachelors in Animal Sciences from Purdue. I have worked at vet clinics / hospitals and animal shelters. I have lots of experience to take care of your pet(s) and to make them feel comfortable! I currently work 3 12 hr shifts a week. On the days I work I can do morning and night stuff and the days I don’t work I am available throughout the day! I will follow whatever instructions are left for your pets! I can take dogs on short or long walks. Play with them in your yard or take them to a dog park too if needed to get some energy out!

“Mariah watched my dogs while I went out of town visiting family, and she made the entire trip completely stress-free when it came to my pets. She took care of them as if they were her own and went above and beyond my expectations. The area where my dogs stayed was also very clean and well kept, which gave me even more peace of mind. I felt reassured knowing they were in such great hands the entire time. I would absolutely rebook her anytime 10/10 service and highly recommend! Thank you again!!!🩷”

“Alyssa did everything we needed to take care of our Angel girl while we were away from home for a week. It was such a relief knowing someone was looking after our girl, all of our (her) needs were met satisfactorily!”

“She accepted my last-minute request and gave me detailed updates on how my cat was doing with a photo! My cat seemed happy when I got back. Thank you”

“Ashlee has done a fantastic job caring for my cat Smokey. He is full spirited when I get home from travel, which tells me he is getting a level of attention from Ashlee that others have not given in the past. Ashlee was also able to accommodate the addition of a day in the middle of my travels. Thank you, Ashlee!”

About: As a Notre Dame student and proud Maltipoo owner, I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ve also spent 4 years working at an animal shelter, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs with a wide range of needs and personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and truly love spending time with animals! As a full-time Notre Dame student, I’m primarily available for pet care on weekends. However, I do have some flexibility during weekdays depending on my class schedule and can often accommodate drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays with advance notice. I’m committed to being reliable and communicative so you always know your pet is in good hands. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and household preferences. I treat every home with respect, by keeping it clean and exactly as I found it. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet and home are in good hands.

“Was very nervous about leaving my pets with an unknown person. Day 1 of meeting Lydia and introducing her to Sweetie and Lil Shit, my worries went away. Sweetie took to Lydia right away. When she came to get key before we left, Sweetie was so happy to see her again. Lil Shit is a cat, and has no opinion, lol! Will book her again”

About: In addition to our current two dogs and barn cats, we have taken care of family pets and have been trusted dog- and cat-sitters for friends and family since we were teenagers (probably a fair bit more than 10 years, but who's counting!). We are experienced with giving medications, special feeding needs, bathing, etc. We have a large, fully-fenced area of our property with lots of space to sniff and explore. We take walks around our neighborhood and the back of our property in addition to lots of running around the yard! Flexible work schedules mean we can care for pets during the week and on weekends! With any extra dogs, our yard becomes a fun dog park, so we would love to temporarily have your dog join the bunch! Our property has a large, fully-fenced yard (~0.25 acres), so it is an excellent place for dogs to run around and play. Our dogs are very friendly and love to play with other pets and humans. We know that many dogs have fine-tuned routines (feeding, walks, etc.), so we can always accommodate special requirements.

“Michaela does a fantastic job for our dogs that both have special requirements. My wife and I are comfortable leaving them under her care. Punctual and great communication.”

“Lily took great care of my kitten this week! I booked on short notice after she spent the weekend at the emergency vet. Would 100% recommend and I've already rebooked for the future :)”

About: I worked as a pet-sitter in the Goshen area during college. I have experience with older dogs and multi-pet households. I’m happy to keep as close to your regular schedule as possible. I’ve just graduated from UND with my MFA and I am looking for a little extra income as I adjust to life post graduate school. My days are totally flexible and I am happy to work around your preferred schedule. I’ve accommodated picky eaters and older pets dealing with incontinence. No matter what the situation is, I’m ready to dive right in and make your pet feel as comfortable as possible.

“Val was amazing! She did drop in visits for my dogs for about five days. On each visit she took pictures and updated me on the status of my dogs. I could see on their faces that they were having fun with Val. She even bought them some toys to play with. She was very attentive and responsible.”
