“Lynn is an absolute Godsend! She provided me multiple updates daily including photos. She offered food and health recommendations as well as resources to review and research. Lynn pampered and spoiled ChiChi during our nearly weeklong vacation. I would trust her with my own life, not just my dog’s life. She’s that darn good! I will only use her from now on and recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter!! Thank you again Lynn!!! 🫶🏼”
“Paul and Kelly (and kids) did a great job caring for our puppies. When we arrived for pickup, our puppies were happy and energetic. Paul and Kelly were very receptive to following our dogs’ schedules. We will definitely take them back to Paul, Kelly and the kids!”
“Andrew and Jane were simply amazing. I was in a crunch to get my dog Justice to a home for a few days and they welcomed her with opened arms. They consistently sent me updates and gave her medicine that she needed daily. I would 10/10 recommend bringing your dog to Andrew if you want a place where your dog will be loved and will be safe. Andrew and Jane are 100% dog people, and your dog will enjoy their time away! Justice came back happy and well-taken care of. Thank you Andrew!”
“Thanks so much, Emily & Ryan! We appreciated all the picture updates, and Calvin obviously had a wonderful time. You guys were always quick to respond, helpful, and flexible. We hope to book again in future.”
“Christina was amazing! I am so happy with her care for my two furkids! I felt confident with her care and concern for them. I would recommend her to anyone and would absolutely rebook with her in the future!”
“Tiffani was absolutely fantastic with Apollo! She sent updates and pictures and kept me completely informed about how everything was going. I'll definitely be using her again and highly recommend her!”
“Kathy was a great communicator! She was more than flexible with meeting up ahead of time so that our pups could get introduced. She showed us around and was very transparent about what to expect while watching our dog, who felt right at home. I highly recommend her, and I’m looking forward to using her again in the future.”
“Kimberlee and her family loved our dog as if he were their own. They even gave us some training tops for our young dog. I will return again and again for such excellent care!”
“Victoria took really good care of Beans, kept me updated and always responded to my messages quickly. She was kind and had a great environment for pups. She took her for walks and let her sleep with her in the bed. Beans had a great time there!”
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.
“First time to board our baby girl and when we meet Pam Beauty liked her right away. She took great care of Beauty. She sends updates everyday too. Will use her again.”
“My dog, Gabi, really enjoyed her time over there. Andrea was great at communicating over Gabi's care. Gabi seemed excited to see me but wasn’t scrambling to get home the way she has in the past with other pet sitters. Definitely would recommend Andrea if your dog likes kids.”
“Leandra did a great job taking care of Millie at my apartment. She was trustworthy and I could tell felt comfortable taking care of a rather anxious, but sweet little dog. I would rebook with her in a heartbeat.”
“Alejandra was wonderful! Very professional and attentive to my dogs needs! Took care of my dog as one of her own! 10/10 would recommend and will be going back to user her services her in the future!”
“Lindsay is fabulous! Margot loved her four night stay at her house. she was able to play with the dogs in her care during the day and she was extremely patient with her when she was whining at night in the beginning. I was worried that my six month doodle was going to come back matted after having five days without being brushed. I didn’t need to worry. Lindsay kept on top of the brushing (without being asked to do so). If we ever need a dog sitter in the South Bend area, we will jump at the opportunity to use Lindsay’s services again!”
“Haley is AMAZING! She took care of my 15 week old puppy last minute, and was super communicative. She sent photos and updates, as well as took him to socialize and made sure he was well taken care of. THANK YOU!”
About: There has never been a time in my life that animals weren’t around. Have been around dogs,cats, birds, and snakes my whole life. I’ve always owned pets! I work as an artist which means that ultimately I do make my own schedule. I can be as flexible or busy as I wish! I truly understand the importance of pets in a home & the role that they play in their owners life. I give all pets the attention, love & care they need

“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!”
“Emily was a great cat-sitter! She was incredibly kind and very communicative and responsive. This was my first time leaving my cats with a Rover sitter and I cannot say enough good things about Emily’s care. My cats seem so happy and cared for! She provided many pictures and updates as well as was so adaptive to unforeseen hurdles (my main entrance of my building was unusable and she was totally open to using the side entrance). The meet and greet eased so many of my anxieties as she asked great questions I didn’t even think about! I 100% recommended and will book 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!”
About: I have many years of experience with household animals, family/friends pets, and various types! I am fluid with service animals as well as with animals requiring special care needs! I am currently open to job opportunities and have a pretty flexible schedule for the foreseeable future. I currently have a 14 year old maltese boy Unless specified otherwise, feedings are routine and scheduled based. Any medicines that need to be administered are taken care of. I have a big backyard, unfenced but have space to let pets out and roam on a long leash.
“I have never used Rover before and so this was a large leap of faith for me to let someone watch my pets for 5 days. Janelle proved to be diligent in sending me updates everyday, and went above and beyond to provide for my fur babies. One of my kitties ate all the food left in her automatic feeder (knocked it over ugh) and they were not going to have enough food to last until we came back, so she went to the store and picked up more food for them!! I would recommend Janelle every time and will be using her again in the future for services 💕🥰 Thanks again!!”
“Alyssa was a great cat sitter for my three cats over thanksgiving break. She was very friendly, easy to work with and went above and beyond anything I could have expected. She reliably came every visit I scheduled, sent me photos and provided daily updates. This helped me relax and focus on my trip. When I returned home, my cats, who are used to me being home all day with them, were happy and everything looked exactly as it did when we left. I would definitely use her again.”
“We had a really good experience with Kylie taking care of both the cats. Both cats gelled with her, she made sure to share many pictures from every visit. Had a peace of mind, knowing they were in good hands. We will definitely approach her again if we get a chance.”
About: I grew up with animals, such as dogs, rabbits, and birds. I have a love for all pets, especially dogs. Different breeds and sizes. I did two years of a dog training club in 4-H and used the information with my dog. I currently have a full time job. I would be able to care for your pets in the evenings after 6:00 pm, as well as overnight if needed. I am available most weekends. I will treat your home with respect and integrity. Please leave a note with all expectations and I will follow them to the best of my ability.
“Mariah was great! She came beforehand to do a walkthrough and sent pictures when she stopped by. It was reassuring to know the kitties were well taken care of. Will definitely use Mariah again!”
About: Growing up, I helped care for my family's dog and regularly pet sat for neighbors' cats and dogs. I now have a cat of my own, so I truly understand the love and responsibility that comes with caring for a pet. I know firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your fur baby behind for a work trip or vacation. I'm committed to giving every pet the attention and affection they need to keep their owners at ease.
“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 :)”
“Carmen has been fantastic! Our dogs love her. From the start, she did a great job listening to and understanding our concerns for our dogs' care when we aren't home. She keeps an eye on our new puppy, ensuring she doesn't get into trouble. Carmen is trustworthy and has shown great communication skills. We highly recommend her services.”
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.
“Mykale is a wonderful cat-sitter! I have two elderly cats, one of whom requires twice daily medication, and so I'm always a bit nervous about leaving them behind if I have to travel. Knowing that Mykale is dropping in on them while I'm gone has really put my mind at ease. She is very communicative and the cats warmed up to her really quickly. When the winter weather got truly awful she even switched to an overnight stay last minute to ensure that Rascal would get his medication in the morning as scheduled even if everyone got snowed in!”
“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.”
About: I've had dogs since I was a little girl and can always be found hanging out with the pets over people at parties! I get along really well with furry friends and I will take really good care of yours! I am self-employed, so I always have availability throughout the week when I'm not traveling. I also have my puppy I would be bringing with me if I am house sitting, so please keep that in mind! She loves other dogs. I can come and play with your animals as often and as long as needed. I will stop in every few hours if need be and will definitely give them all the loves and pets!
About: I am a huge pet lover! I’ve had several pets over the years and I treat them as if they were my child. I feel as if animals should feel loved and cared for just as much as us humans. For the time being I am available ALL week including weekends. I have always had a special connection with animals. My friend of mine had a Golden Retriever and his name was Benny he was my bestfriend. We’d always spend time together and I’ve always just felt the need to look after him as if he were my own. My point is I genuinely care for animals and it’s always in my best interest to keep them safe and care for them as best as possible. I have a huge field across from my house that I walk to every morning and afternoon just to get some fresh air so daily walks and outdoor time won’t be a problem for me. I also like to have cats as my primary emotional support animal so their presence alone would be a great addition to my daily routine. There is a ginormous field across from my apartment complex for your fur companion’s enjoyment so there will be tons of outdoor and play time. I do not have a fenced yard so I will always be alongside them at the park with a secured leash of course.

“Justin was AMAZING in taking care of our 2 fur babies while we were in town for vacation. My black lab, who is very shy, warmed up to him right away which I knew was a very good indicator that they were in good hands. I will be using him from now on whenever I am in town.”
“Buddy has been to visit Emily and Ryan twice now and I couldn’t be happier! Each time he comes home and is soooo tired from playing all day. I appreciate that Emily and Ryan are so accommodating and take the time to keep me updated while Buddy is there. I feel confident when Buddy is there that he is being taken care of and loved like he is at home. Thanks guys for all you do!”
“I’ve been bringing my dog, Mykonos, to Lynn for daycare, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provides. Every morning, he gets so excited to go back, which says everything about how comfortable and happy he feels with her. He comes home calm and content, showing no signs of stress or anxiety. It gives me real peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. Lynn clearly cares deeply for the dogs she looks after, and I’m grateful for the warm, safe environment she provides.”
About: Dogs are a part of my soul and will be well cared for. Including walks, playtime, food, water and a doggy door. I cannot wait to meet your pup. I am a stay at home dog Mom. I am always available unless I am running errands. I do 2 meals a day and walk in the afternoon. My pets rule the roost. I will take care of your pets as if they are my own. Also, if I am in your home I will be respectful as if it is my own.
“I don’t think I can say enough good about Haley and Pierce. Pierce is the perfect combination of laid back and playful. He patiently tolerated her initial over-excitement and then ran and played “chase” with her at the beautiful park where Haley took them. Haley was friendly and professional, providing frequent updates and photos. I will most definitely be using Haley again!”
“Christina is a very kind person, she took such great care of my fur baby while I was on vacation sent pictures/ videos throughout my whole trip to make sure I knew that Jayce was in great hands. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Jamie was once again wonderful. Her communication is great, with multiple photo updates throughout the day. My dogs always come home happy and sleepy. Can’t recommend her enough.”
“Katherine was great. She took great care of Snuggles. We have an older dog and she made sure she was comfortable with her dogs before we dropped her off. As a bonus she gave her a bath so she came house fluffy and smelling good.”
“LiLi had a great time at Kimberlee’s. When I came to pick her up, she was still trying to run around and play with their dog, Odie, who has become one of LiLi’s best pals.”
About: I’ve always had a special connection with pets. I believe in giving my pets the best life I can give. I love to train animals with positive reinforcement, love, and plenty of patience. My dog and I spend a lot of time together, and she gets love from the whole family. She is my world and my best friend. I also have some small critters that all get along with her. I also have four rescue cats! They’re all loved and cuddled often. Many people call my place “the zoo” because I have such an affinity for animals. All my animals are socialized so that they feel comfortable with people and other animals. At the moment, I am between employment, so I am taking the time to spend with my animals at home! It’s brings me great joy to give them the attention they deserve, and I thought that I would extend help to anyone else needing support for their pets while they are away. At my house we have a dog who need an introduction to other dogs, but easily get along if done properly. Most importantly we have a large backyard that is fenced in.
“Finding Lindsay and her weekly daycare has been such a blessing to our dog and to our family. Our Golden, Vera walks in the door every morning with a wagging tale knowing that everyday is going to be full of love, furry friends, communication with her momma if needed, and unconditional kindness. Lindsay provides a safe, clean, trusting, professional, organized, and fun home for all of her dogs. We couldn't ask for more and we are extraordinarily thankful!”
“Val did a really good job with our little Miss Belle! She updated us through messages and instagram stories of what she’s doing throughout the day. She came back home happy ?”
“Michaela was great! We were visiting Traverse City from Ohio and needed somewhere for our dog to go for a couple hours. Michaela sent us photos throughout the day and took good care of our pup!”
“Day took great care of my dog while we were visiting Washington. She was available same day and was very sweet when she picked our pup up. She sent pictures of her playing in the park. She was also very gracious when we were 15 minutes late for pick up due to traffic. I would totally recommend leaving your dog with her”
About: As a big animal lover I’ve always sought ways to spend more time with them in whatever ways I could - be that pet-sitting for friends and family, helping to exercise friend’s dogs when they were busy, to volunteering for the last 12 years at a therapeutic horseback-riding facility. In that time I’ve dedicated to learning as much as I could about dogs, cats, and horses and how to care for and teach them so you can feel secure that your pet will be treated with the utmost kindness, respect, and love, with some dashes of training and fun mixed in. Need someone to care for your furry family member - look no further! I currently deliver packages for Amazon Flex and schedule my blocks day-of (usually only 2 hours or less before they start) so I’m always able to be available if need be. If in your home I can feed, water, walk, snuggle with, give medication, do basic training or exercise your dog and will do so in the most professional manner possible. If your dog is coming over to my home, I have a large, clear fenced in yard where my 11.5 month old Irish Setter has plenty of room to get her energy out daily so you can feel comfortable that your dogs would have ample space to wear themselves out and a super-friendly (and gentle) playmate to help in that endeavor. Afterwards I have a spare XL hard plastic crate if they need time and space to rest or if they are spending the night, along with plenty of fuzzy blankets and toys they can snuggle up with. Whatever it is your looking for, I’m happy to help make you and your dog’s lives happier, healthier and as stress-free as can be!
“He enjoys every second with her...She is amazing and always sends me videos and pics! I hate being away from him so it makes it easier with the pics and videos!!! If I can give her more then 5 stars I would!!!”
“My fur babies had such a great time with Desmond! He was kind enough to take them in last minute and made me feel so comfortable. You could tell he really cared for them. I will definitely use him again soon!”
About: Hi! I’m Kelsey and I have a super pet-friendly studio for me and your favorite pup(s) in East Village. When I’m taking care of your cat or dog, my priority will always be to stay in touch, and I will be sure to send updates and accompanying photos of your pets adventures. Similarly, I will be sure to always be available if you need me! Taking your pets for walks and cuddling with your pets are a few of my favorite things. I’ll be sure to follow the schedule to which we agree. I possess over 10 years of pet sitting experience, and looking forward to many more!! Longer stays (7+ days) preferred! ***I will be updating my scheduling regularly and will try to respond to messages in under 2-3 hours.*** I have a very large pet friendly studio and work from home during the day! Your pups will love to stay with me! I will take your pup for neighborhood adventures every day of the week! My studio has AC and I live in my studio full-time. When not working at a restaurant in the evenings, I will be with your pup 24/7. Longer stays preferred (7+ days).
“We were very pleased with the care our beagle received. Her back yard is fenced which allowed Spencer to be outside without a leash, which he loves. Will use her again, absolutely!”

“Emily is great! I had to go out of town for the day and she walked my little guy three times. When I came home I could tell that he was hoping Emily would be there too!! I highly recommend Emily!!”
“Jamie is awesome! She took great care of out little golden doodle, Julep!! She walked Julep for us 3 times in one long, Notre Dame football game day!! Jamie also took time to stop by and meet us before sitting for Julep the next day!! We will definitely hire Jamie again!!”
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter with a genuine love for animals of all sizes and personalities. I just earned my degree in biomedical engineering and am interested in a side hustle doing something I love - caring for pets! I have experience caring for pets with different energy levels and needs, and I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, medication administration if needed, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I’m patient, responsible, and detail-oriented, so I’ll always follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them happy and stress-free. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands! Pet care already plays a big part in my daily routine since I take care of my own cat every day, including special care and medications. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I have time for check-ins, feedings, playtime, cleaning litter boxes, giving meds if needed, and just spending quality time with pets. I care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable and relaxed. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes and always make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands.
“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.”
About: I have many years of experience with household animals, family/friends pets, and various types! I am fluid with service animals as well as with animals requiring special care needs! I am currently open to job opportunities and have a pretty flexible schedule for the foreseeable future. I currently have a 14 year old maltese boy Unless specified otherwise, feedings are routine and scheduled based. Any medicines that need to be administered are taken care of. I have a big backyard, unfenced but have space to let pets out and roam on a long leash.
About: I've had pets since age 7. Everything from reptiles, fish, cats, and dogs (of all sizes). Grew up with multiple cats and currently have multiple dogs and cat. I have pet sat for family and friends since before I could drive. I love getting to know new furry friends and often walk dogs at the humane society so they get proper socialization, very important. Have had to administer pet CPR twice in my life. Both times were due to dogs choking on an object/food. Positive outcomes from both incidents. Safe and happy is always top priority. I work full time but still have plenty of time and energy to care for not only my own pets but others as well. I know what I can handle and will never take on too much. When in your home I like to know your routine with your pet(s) to keep them on it as close as possible to minimize stress on them which is why I prefer to stay at a client's home with their animal, if possible. Your pet will never be unsupervised outside, even with a fenced in area I will be out there with them. Your pet will be spoiled with love and pets, if they permit it.
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: 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.

Any cancellation less than 7 days before stay begins will result in no refund provided.
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.
About: I have over three years of experience providing pet walking and house-sitting services, caring for a wide range of animals with reliability and compassion. I am passionate about working with pets of all kinds and committed to ensuring their comfort, safety, and well-being. I have two dogs of my own that I care for on a daily basis, giving me hands-on experience in providing consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize the comfort, routine, and well-being of each animal. For dog walking, I ensure they get regular, safe, and stimulating walks based on their energy level and needs. For pet sitting, I follow any feeding, medication, and exercise schedules provided and make sure they have plenty of companionship and attention. Additionally, I keep the home clean and provide regular updates to the owner. My goal is to make the pet feel comfortable and cared for while maintaining the owner’s peace of mind.
“Took great care of my corgi puppy, Rudy! Very punctual and spend extra time with him playing after his walk. Followed all care instructions and couldn’t be happier! Thank you so much Lily!”
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!
About: I’ve been a huge animal lover since I was a child. I absolutely love my fur baby she is my entire world. I don’t have kids so she is literally my baby. I make sure anytime I’m dog sitting all the fur babies are loved, cuddled and cared for. All my friends and family always call me to walk their pets ,for feeding, potty breaks and overnight stays. I currently work a full time 40 hour job at a psychiatric center here in south bend but I’m free most weekends starting Friday after 6:30pm all the way to Sunday! I do have plenty of time to take off work if I need to cover an emergency during the week, I am more than willing to do that I will mostly be sitting at clients homes, but if I dog sit at my home I do have a big yard but dogs will always be leashed for potty breaks because the yard is not fenced and I’d rather be safe than sorry, also if your dog needs a crate I do have a medium sized one from when my baby was spayed. I have AC and lots of comfy doggy beds and spots for dog to lay. I have a cute yorkie who is very playful, but also keeps to herself.
About: I am an accredited dog trainer with about 2 years of professional experience. I provide puppy/beginner training to advance packages, including Service Dog training. This can easily be incorporated to your Dog boarding/daycare or a private session. I grew up on a farm so I was taught how to care for domestic and livestock animals at an early age. I've taken care of dogs, cats, ferrets, reptiles, rodents, and just about most other traditional pets. I have the experience and accessibility to care for younger and older dogs that require special attention from frequent potty breaks to providing medication. I am a full time student so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet's every need. I have 2 friendly furry pals that would love to play and provide company to other pets. I live in an apartment, but I have a dedicated area for this purpose. I also have a fenced balcony and my apartment has a dog park on sight.

“Paul and Kelly (and kids) did a great job caring for our puppies. When we arrived for pickup, our puppies were happy and energetic. Paul and Kelly were very receptive to following our dogs’ schedules. We will definitely take them back to Paul, Kelly and the kids!”
“Andrew and Jane were simply amazing. I was in a crunch to get my dog Justice to a home for a few days and they welcomed her with opened arms. They consistently sent me updates and gave her medicine that she needed daily. I would 10/10 recommend bringing your dog to Andrew if you want a place where your dog will be loved and will be safe. Andrew and Jane are 100% dog people, and your dog will enjoy their time away! Justice came back happy and well-taken care of. Thank you Andrew!”
“Thanks so much, Emily & Ryan! We appreciated all the picture updates, and Calvin obviously had a wonderful time. You guys were always quick to respond, helpful, and flexible. We hope to book again in future.”
“Christina was amazing! I am so happy with her care for my two furkids! I felt confident with her care and concern for them. I would recommend her to anyone and would absolutely rebook with her in the future!”
“Tiffani was absolutely fantastic with Apollo! She sent updates and pictures and kept me completely informed about how everything was going. I'll definitely be using her again and highly recommend her!”
“Kathy was a great communicator! She was more than flexible with meeting up ahead of time so that our pups could get introduced. She showed us around and was very transparent about what to expect while watching our dog, who felt right at home. I highly recommend her, and I’m looking forward to using her again in the future.”
“Kimberlee and her family loved our dog as if he were their own. They even gave us some training tops for our young dog. I will return again and again for such excellent care!”
“Krista was awesome, from the pre-stay visit to the pick up. Very much appreciated were the pictures sent during Hooper's stay. Would highly recommend Krista to care for your furry loved one.”
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.
“First time to board our baby girl and when we meet Pam Beauty liked her right away. She took great care of Beauty. She sends updates everyday too. Will use her again.”
“Leandra did a great job taking care of Millie at my apartment. She was trustworthy and I could tell felt comfortable taking care of a rather anxious, but sweet little dog. I would rebook with her in a heartbeat.”
“Alejandra was wonderful! Very professional and attentive to my dogs needs! Took care of my dog as one of her own! 10/10 would recommend and will be going back to user her services her in the future!”
“Lindsay is fabulous! Margot loved her four night stay at her house. she was able to play with the dogs in her care during the day and she was extremely patient with her when she was whining at night in the beginning. I was worried that my six month doodle was going to come back matted after having five days without being brushed. I didn’t need to worry. Lindsay kept on top of the brushing (without being asked to do so). If we ever need a dog sitter in the South Bend area, we will jump at the opportunity to use Lindsay’s services again!”
“Emily is loving, reliable and a great communicator. She kept me updated through texts and pictures. My Boston Terrier has unique medical needs and Emily was willing to take the challenge. Tucker thrived while in her care. Emily not only cares for your pet but delivers tender, loving care. She will be my first choice for all pet “babysitting “.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I’ve worked with playful puppies, independent cats, and senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I love getting to know each pet’s personality—whether that means long walks, playtime, or quiet cuddles—and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel like they’re with a friend, not just a sitter. Pet care is already part of my daily routine because I care for my own cat every day, from feeding and cleaning the litter box to playtime and making sure she feels loved and comfortable. Having my own pet has made me attentive to routines, behavior changes, and the small details that help animals feel safe and cared for. I also love spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or giving them the attention and exercise they need. Caring for pets fits naturally into my routine because it’s something I genuinely enjoy and make time for every day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, clean up after them, and make sure they get the playtime, walks, or quiet companionship they need. I believe pets feel most secure in their own home because it’s their safe space, surrounded by familiar smells and routines. Being able to care for them in that environment helps build trust and creates a stronger, more positive relationship, making the experience less stressful for both the pet and the owner.
“Haley is AMAZING! She took care of my 15 week old puppy last minute, and was super communicative. She sent photos and updates, as well as took him to socialize and made sure he was well taken care of. THANK YOU!”
