Dog Walking in Riverpark, South Bend, IN

About: Hello! My name is Kaitlyn, and I am an absolute animal lover! I’ve had a number of all types of animals my whole life, and I love caring for them! I can’t wait to assist you guys! Pet care is a daily thing for me, also is very important. I care for my 2 dogs and 2 cats daily, would love to help out others! I have a fenced in backyard, and two very very friendly dogs. I love to keep my dogs on a schedule, I’m very open to listening and following others schedules as needed.

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!

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!

About: Hi! Over the past few years, especially during the pandemic, I've come to really appreciate the therapeutic power a dog possesses in just grounding you and helping you give and receive love and not take life too seriously. I didn't grow up with dogs (although I always wanted one!) due to my parents having bad allergies, but ever since I moved out, met my sister's (now) husband's dog, and moved in next door to neighbors who had *literally* the fluffiest, most loving, and adorably spazzy dogs, I became sold on getting a rescue dog myself someday when I can properly afford to give my dog the best life ever. In the interim, I love playing with and cuddling dogs every chance I get, and just hanging out with them and giving them all the love in the world possible. I have limited petcare-sitting experience (a few overnights, taking care of friends' dogs, and helping out with past childcare family clients' pets), but I treat every dog the same: as an opportunity to make a new friend, give a little bit of love, and remind them who's a good boy/girl. 😍 I'm a freelancer with flexible hours. I run my own freelance writing business and do delivery driving on the side, so I can be pretty flexible when it comes to your petsitting needs. For now, it's just loving on dogs I come across in daily life! I would make sure to treat each dog as the individual that it is, while offering the same high level of personalized service, attention, and commitment to every client, no matter the dog or owner I'm working with. I would make sure to keep a record of any special needs or fears each dog has that the owner would communicate to me, and work with and within those to the best of my capabilities. I would especially just make sure to ask you to give plenty of pets, cuddles, and belly rubs, and play as many fetch marathons as the dog desires, too.

“Thanks for all your help.”

“Honest, dependable, organized she has such a great personality, she's very trustworthy, she love animals, she been taking care of our dog for a few years.”

“Ardrianna is wonderful with dogs. I honestly do not trust anyone other then myself normally with walking my dog but Adrianna is one of those people I can trust to walk her and not have to worry about anything going wrong.”

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.

“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've owned/taken care of dogs my entire life. Then, in 2020, I retired from the rock-n-roll photography industry during lock down to pursue a career in dog photography. I would love to take your dog on a trip to the park for a photo walk! I am working on a highly flexible schedule right now. Any appointments requested at least a day or two ahead of time should be able to be easily scheduled. I will be doing your dog's photo walk always within walking distance of your home. You will receive (upon request) a live photo documentation of our walk.

“Zach is great with animals! He has owned multiple dogs through his life and has cared for them with much love and kindness. He has taken care of loved my cats with great responsibility, love, and kindness. He is a responsible guy who would do a great job showing your animal love and care. I would 100% recommend him to take care of your fur baby. He understands that pets are more than animals, they are an important part of your family!”

“Maia is wonderful! She has sitted my senior cat over 5 times throughout the past year. One of those times I was gone over a month. My cat acted like she didn't even miss me when I got back she was so happy with Maia.”

“I love jane! I would trust her with my first born child. She cares deeply for the world around her, and will forever be the love of my life.”

“Destiny was very good with our dogs and they loved spending time with her. We will be using her again in the future for sure.”
