About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life—there has literally never been a time growing up when I didn't have a pet at home! On top of my lifelong hands-on experience, I spent all four years of high school volunteering weekly at a local animal shelter, dedicating about 8 hours a week to caring for both cats and dogs. I’d love to bring that same high level of care, patience, and love to your furry family members! I'm currently on summer break from the University of Notre Dame, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I work with the Boys and Girls Club as a Youth Development Professional seasonally. I value safety over anything and will keep a close eye on your pets as much as requested. I understand what can happen if an animal is left alone for too long, and will ensure that your animals are safe and protected.

“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 grew up with animals- my dad raised and bred dogs professionally, and my brother and I helped by taking care of puppies. We also had our house dog and I had cats. Since then, I have raised many dogs, cats, and bunnies. Currently my husband and I live by ourselves and travel a lot so we do not have our own pets, but I miss having animals around and would enjoy helping take care of others’ pets. We have a calm, clean, and happy home. We love animals so much, we are both vegan as well. Your pet will be in the best care! I work from home primarily, sometimes teaching yoga classes in the public space. I also do massage nearby occasionally. My husband is home most of the time as well. We care for pets just as we would our own. We walk regularly and live near a large park and river walk. We are very well organized, and have also taken care of our many children throughout our lives!

“Serenity is wonderful. She is patient and kind with my oddball, and sometimes anxious, pups.”

About: I have a bernidoodle of my own, and I have dog-sat for other family members and neighbors. I am comfortable with all dog breeds and sizes. I am currently on summer break from college. I will be available for drop-in visits and walks any day during the week and weekends after 10 am. My schedule is very flexible, and I am open to schedule changes and to taking on multiple dogs. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat their home with respect and follow their pet's normal routine as closely as possible. During visits, I'll make sure your dog gets plenty of time outside for potty breaks, exercise, and fresh air, along with lots of attention. I have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I'll always follow your instructions and make sure your dog is happy and well looked after.

“Kimberlee was great! She was responsive to my request. She was on time for both walks and sent pictures of Finn. I will definitely use her again in the future and highly recommend that you book her as well.”

“Mateo took great care of our dog, was timely, and sent updates and photos of him as well! Would use him again!”

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: Animals have always been a huge part of my life ❤️ I’ve had both cats and dogs my entire life, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I currently have two large dogs and two cats of my own, and I truly believe pets are family. I’ll always treat your pup with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own. I’m a stay-at-home wife, so I’m home throughout the day and have plenty of time to give your pup lots of attention, love, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and cuddles. I also have a fenced-in backyard where the dogs can safely spend time outside, play, get some fresh air, and enjoy the sunshine. I love getting to know each dog and their unique personality and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and safe while they’re with me. I know how important it is to feel comfortable with the person caring for your fur baby, so I’m always happy to send pictures and updates so you can relax knowing your pup is being loved and well cared for while you’re away. ❤️ Being a stay-at-home wife gives me a very open and flexible schedule for pet sitting. I’m available throughout the week and can be flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. I’m also able to accommodate each dog’s usual feeding, potty, and sleeping schedule so their routine feels as normal as possible while you’re away. I want every dog staying with me to feel safe and comfortable in my home. I have a fully fenced backyard for secure outdoor time and two friendly large dogs of my own. I also have two cats who stay in their own separate room while I’m boarding dogs. I’m happy to crate your pup if that’s part of their normal routine, and I always follow any instructions you leave for me.

About: I am here to provide a comfortable environment for your animals. I have had pets in my home for as long as I can remember. My goal while caring for your pets is to care for them the same way that you do! I am a college student and my schedule is very flexible right now! My profile will say that I am only available four days a week, but feel free to reach out if you require services in the evenings on MWF. My goal while providing my services is to make sure that your animals feel safe and comfortable while you are not available. I gaurantee that I will treat your pets with respect and love whenever I am present.

About: Hello, I’m Chloe! I was born and raised here in Indiana, and I would love to make some furry friends! I’ve grown up in a household with multiple cats, and more recently two family dogs. I also have two dogs and two cats of my own. I have many years of experience caring for friends’ and families’ dogs and cats—of different breeds, ages, and sizes. Being active is a big part of my life so I enjoy taking dogs on long walks, playing fetch with them, and then snuggling on the couch after a long day of activities! I work from home, so I can be flexible with owners’ schedules. I can work from your house, in order to spend more quality time with your babies. I am mindful of your routine and suggestions! I will follow your recommendations on what to do to keep your pets feeling relaxed and safe.

About: I've cared for numerous dogs over the years and always strive to create a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where they feel happy and well cared for. I'm dependable, responsible, and dedicated to giving every dog the attention, care, and affection they deserve. Whether it's a walk, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I'll treat your furry friend like family. I can't wait to meet your best friend! 🐾 I'm currently pursuing my Master's degree in Occupational Therapy while completing a full-time internship Monday through Friday. I'm available after 4:00 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, and I'd love to spend that time taking your dog for a walk! You can count on me to provide your furry friend with plenty of exercise, attention, and loving care while you're busy. Your dog's safety and well-being are my top priorities. I take the time to understand each dog's personality, energy level, and walking routine to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. While I don’t have any pets of my own, but I have a passion for caring for dogs and treat every dog as if they were my own!

“Margaret is fantastic—she has great expertise with both dogs and cats and is incredibly reliable and friendly! My dog, who is a little bit nervous generally and not small (Aussie/Husky) took to her immediately and they have gotten on beautifully! I also have two cats and Margaret gives them the same love she does her own sweet kitty. Highly recommend!”

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.

“Carolina was an amazing dog walker! She was always on time and reliable, which gave us great peace of mind. She took excellent care of Bianca, being extra mindful of her needs and ensuring she was comfortable and happy on every walk. It was clear that Carolina genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. Overall, we had a fantastic experience, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable walker. If we ever need dog-walking services again, we would definitely love to work with Carolina!”
