About: I love fur babies! Whether it’s running around and playing with a younger ball of energy, just talking and petting an older “pup” I’m your girl I’ve cared for neighborhood pets since I was 12 years old. I have had pets in my home my entire life. I’d love to give you a stress free time away knowing your beloved animals are in great care while you are unavailable. During the week I would like to schedule regular evening walks, drops ins, or boarding. And weekends I am completely available. I can accommodate weekday services as long as I have enough of an advanced notice. I have a large fenced in yard! I am a very adventurous, outdoors person so if your dog is energetic I will be out there finding out what your dog enjoys to do, whether it be being chased, catching a ball, or just being curious and walking the neighborhood if you’re baby plans on hanging out with me I would definitely keep he/she active! I am currently working Monday-Thursdays, with a very flexible schedule! I am able to do drop ins or walks anytime throughout the day, but I will be able to give more devoted time for boarding typically Thur thru Sunday. We have a fenced in yard and plenty of space for your fur babies to run around and feel at home! My family will live on your pets as if they are our own!


3. Melissa M.
“I would recommend Melissa as a dog or cat sitter and walker. She was very responsible with our pets while we were away. She checked in with us daily to let us know how things were going. She left the house in excellent condition. Our dogs were very well taken care of and we were very grateful!”


4. Emily E.


“Emily was a really great dog walker for our dog, during a week we couldn't do it - she was reliable and flexible and our dog walked very happily with her every time. We'd 100% recommend her.”


5. Chloe H.
“Chloe is the best pet sitter I've ever hired, seriously! So kind, responsive, and experienced! Getting pictures of my babies while we were away from them was so comforting, and they just loved Chloe. Will absolutely be having her pet sit for me from now on!!”

“Thanks! I really appreciate -”


7. Stephanie S.
“I assume for anyone reading this review, your pets are members of your family. It is the same for me. I have two large dogs – one is 8, the other not quite 2. I also have a senior cat. I have had a really hard time finding a pet sitter in Elkhart County. We are blessed to have a good boarding kennel in the area, but my dogs have not been happy there and, of course, the cat would NOT enjoy that as it wasn’t HER idea to go ?. From the moment Stephanie walked into my home, there was a sense of calm and compassion about her. It was obvious that she just LIKED my pets and THEY liked her too! We asked Stephanie to pet and house sit as I prefer to hire a petsitter to stay with my pets overnight. She was a VERY quick study and truly paid attention to every detail that I was giving to her. She asked to visit a couple of times before our trip and I was so happy about that. It was apparent that she wanted everyone to feel comfortable with her being in our home. She would text me every day to let me know how things were going. THEN – she would send pics of my smiling pups! It is SO fun to be able to enjoy my vacation knowing that the family left behind has someone with them who really cares about them. And then, when we returned home, the animals were calm and content and our home was just as we left it. Stephanie is a professional. I feel very blessed to have found her. You will enjoy having her watch over your four-legged family members.”

About: Your pet is welcome in my home! They will get lots of TLC, play time, feeding, walking & love. My house is small but live on 2 acres in the country. My yard is not fenced so I walk your pets on a leash & there are trails in the woods where they love to walk too. I also have a tie out if they dont do well on a leash & some are fine to free roam but they are never left unattended. I can take 2 small to medium dogs or 2 large or 1 giant dog. I will also transport your pet(s) to & from your home if needed. This will be an additional fee. I have been professionally petsitting for the past 17 years. References are supplied upon request. Any cancellation less than 7 days before stay begins will result in no refund provided.


9. Debra M.

“Good communication and flexable.”


10. Daveia D.
“Daveia is great to work with. She goes above and beyond to help out anyway that she can. Whenever I need her she is always there to help. She is a great dog owner, and that makes her a great help to anyone who needs her help. I wouldn't trust my dogs with just anyone, Daveia has all my faith and trust. I always know that my dogs will be safe, happy and cared for when they are with her. She is amazing.”


11. Isabelle R.
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!

13. RA & Steven V.
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!


14. Madeline C.
About: I've been around dogs since I was a child so I'm very keen about them. I however have raised two of my own as newborns, so I'm very fond of dogs as well. They're very fun to have as puppies, but are a lot of work! However I raised them well and they are now the best dogs in the world (though I am a little biased)! Exercise and a proper diet and care are of course very important as well as other interaction such as playtime and making sure they have attention. I love everything about dogs and think they truly are too good for us! I currently work a full-time job, but it's Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I am available Monday and Wednesday mornings because I am in school in the afternoons those days. I am available all Saturday and Sundays. I'd be happy to follow any instructions for care of your pet(s) given to me, whether walking, playing, or whatever else! Of course if I am in your home, I will trest your home and belongings with the upmost respect! If there are any issues or messes of any kind, I will take care of it and inform you!


15. Sally Michelle R.
“Sally did a great job with my pups and was so easy to work with. Took awesome photos and made it feel like I was there with them - HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”


16. Anna K.
“Anna is nurturing, compassionate, and caring in all that she does. She’s the first person that comes to mind when I think of someone who puts her dog and his comfort before her own. Honestly, anyone would be lucky to have her take care of their own!”


17. Genia O.
“Genia is great with animals, she is very responsible, loving and caring to all animals ❤️. She takes it very seriously to care for them. I trust her whole heartedly to care for my a animals.”


18. Erin W.
About: I am an animal lover looking to give love to dogs. I currently have a bichon/poodle mix who is the sweetest little man he loves dogs as well so if you would want your dog to have a playmate olli would be more then willing to join me on my service. I am a college student attending IUSB full time. I am originally from South Bend, Indiana. I have not met a single dog I have not fallen in love with immediately yet. The only request I have is that you let me know dietary restrictions. My cousin watches her bosses dog and gave him a puppy pop one for him to have diarrhea.. poor puppy. I will not feed your dog anything you do not want them to have. Thank you for looking at my page! I currently work part-time at a Hospital with weekends free and am a nursing student. While I do have to study for school I can study and hang with your pup at the same time. I treat each dog like my own. If I am caring for your dog it will be treated like my own dog and cared for as I would my own.


19. Angelica C.
“Angelica is a sweet young lady who has helped me take care of my labradoodle, Murphy, various times when I left on vacation. Her and her family are beautiful inside and out and just go over the top to satisfy me and my husbands needs for our pup. She has experience in distributing medication and constantly was on top of the amount and time it had to be taken.”


20. Natalee F.
“Natalee is so caring and kind! She really goes out of her way to make the dogs feel loved :) She has a true love for animals! I would feel completely comfortable leaving my babies with her ❤️”
