Highly-rated overnight sitters - Teegarden
“Christina is a wonderful dog sitter! She gave our Nala plenty of playtime and rest time during her stay. Christina was awesome at communicating, sending us numerous videos each day. Nala came home very happy and tired from her time with Christina. She is located near SB airport so very convenient to use when traveling. I highly recommend Christina and will be booking her in the future.”
“This was Lucy’s first extended stay with Andrew and Jane and they definitely treated her like one of their own. She got lots of love, snuggs, and playtime with her friends. Andrew and Jane sent loads of photos and video updates and were extremely accommodating when our travel was delayed and we needed a later pickup time. We will be using them for all of Lucy’s boarding and daycare needs.”
“Lynnette provided excellent care for our dog while we were away for the weekend. She is very thorough and professional in her approach to care, and her home had a wonderful set up to make our dog's stay comfortable. Very quick response times on all communication and we received lot of updates and pictures to confirm he was having a good time. Highly recommend!”
“Lilliana was the best! Even with a short notice she was able to help and watch our Callie! She sent update photos which were amazing!! Overall will definitely be bringing my dog back!”
“First time seeing my kitty like a sitter this much. Francis sends out pic/updates at around the same time every day, it became something to look forward to while im away from my cat.”
“Chris has done doggy day care with Walter before, but this was the first time I had to leave my pup for so long! Walter came back happy and healthy, and Chris was super great about updating me on his progress and sending the cutest photos!! Thank you Chris!!”
“There are dog sitters, and then there are people who truly become part of your dog's life. For quite a while now, my weekends have slowly become my weekdays—early mornings, long shifts, and the quiet rhythm of doing what needs to be done. In the midst of all of that, there is always Paige. And as any dog owner understands, our dogs are never "just dogs." They are love, trust, comfort, and pieces of our hearts that walk beside us through life. That is why I cannot say enough wonderful things about these incredible puppy sitters. From the very beginning, Paige was not simply watched over—she was welcomed, understood, and loved. Their care extends far beyond food, potty breaks, and supervision. They genuinely invest themselves in the dogs they care for, and it shows in every interaction, every update, and every photo they send. Even when Paige wasn't feeling her best, they met her with extra comfort, special food, patience, and care, giving me a peace of mind that is difficult to put into words. What I appreciate most is not only how deeply they care for her, but how much they help her grow. Through gentle guidance, structure, socialization, and opportunities to learn from mature, well-behaved dogs, Paige continues to become calmer, more confident, and more comfortable in herself. Their home provides so much more than pet sitting. It provides safety, growth, companionship, encouragement, and love. As someone whose life often requires being in many places at once, there is a profound comfort in knowing that while I am caring for others, someone else is caring for Paige with the same attentiveness and devotion I would hope to give her myself. That kind of peace is rare. Paige and I are grateful beyond words—not simply because they care for her so well, but because they care for her with their whole hearts. Thank you, Jennifer and Larry W., for the extraordinary impact you have made. The comfort, reassurance, care, wisdom, and generosity you have shared have left a lasting imprint that will be carried with profound gratitude. Some gifts cannot be measured by what is given, but by what is felt, and for that, we will always be thankful.”
“Another great stay with Josie and Michael. I appreciate them so much. It’s nice to be able to go away and know that your babies are being cared for. Thank you!”
“This was the first time I left my puppy. Even though I texted to check on him way more than I should have Nicholas never got upset and kept me updated with videos and answered whatever questions I had. Beaux was with him four nights. I would use him again and definitely recommend”
“Emily did an exceptional job taking care of Spartacus! From the moment I entrusted her with our dog, I knew I made the right decision. Emily demonstrated a remarkable level of professionalism and dedication throughout the entire dog sitting experience. She showed genuine care and affection towards our dog, ensuring his well-being and happiness at all times. I was impressed by her attention to detail and ability to provide a safe and comfortable environment for our pet. Communication was seamless and prompt, with regular updates and photos that reassured me of our dog’s contentment. I highly recommend Emily to anyone in need of a reliable and trustworthy dog sitter. Her exceptional service and genuine love for animals makes her a standout choice. I am grateful for this experience and will undoubtedly seek her services again in the future!”
About: Animals have always been apart of my life. I have owned and cared for dogs, cats, bunnies, and hamsters. Animals bring out so much love and joy in my life and I give them all the love and care that I can! I make it a point to be well experienced and researched in their individual needs and behaviors to best care for them. I am a stay-at-home mom so my schedule is open and flexible. Weekdays and Weekends are both open in my schedule and I can be accommodating. I am comfortable walking and playing with dogs/cats of all sizes, I am strong and know how to lead and divert unwanted behavior. I make sure water and bathroom breaks are a priority. I am comfortable crating if that is requested. I will always respect your pet and your home.
“Carl had a great time with Krista and her family! She took great care of him while we were away on vacation and I think Carl had as much fun as we did. Krista was flexible, responsive, and great to work with. Would definitely book again!”
“Hailey and her fiancée are amazing! They kept our fur baby for two weeks (the longest we have had to leave him) and took such great care of him. They’re true dog lovers and I didn’t have to worry about our pup at all. Will definitely use them again!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Teegarden
“Andrew was GREAT! His whole house, from the inside out was extremely dog friendly. LiLi was a little apprehensive at first. He let me stay while he introduced all the dogs he was watching, one at a time, to LiLi. He made the transition easier for her by giving her (and all the other dogs) treats. Even though LiLi was nervous when I left, Andrew sent me a video of her happily playing with his dog, James, less than 5 minutes after I left. He took great pictures and videos too!! Definitely will use him again…tomorrow. 😊”
“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!”
About: Over 10 years of fostering over 400 babies for local shelters. They were all spoiled by the time they were ready for adoption. (No apologies for that 🙃) Your pet will be well cared for/spoiled while they visit! I can take two dogs, for the safety of your pet(s) and mine, only if they are from the same household. Love animals and miss fostering I did while in California. Your family member will be in caring hands who has years of experience with puppies and kittens who needed medication. I’m retired and have all the time in the world. 🤭 I still foster and mark my calendar as unavailable when I have foster babies. You can always ask if there is room for one more. 😉 New home with half acre fenced yard. Have a very active border collie who wants a playmate. The Cavalier is a very playful instigator. My animals have always had the run of the house but I can provide a crate if need be. If you need an extended period of time, let me know. My last foster was 6 months old, from a local shelter and was here for over 2 months.
“Jen was awesome. She was very responsive and kept us informed during our dog’s time with her. I highly recommend her and if we are ever back in Nappanee, we would use her again. This was our second time using Rover and it’s a wonderful service, especially when traveling.”
“Jeremiah is a very kind and experienced sitter ... his approach to my very anxious old lady was gentle and expert so that she moved right along with him. He kept me posted by sending a photo of my relaxed dog; walked her; and hung out with. I am very pleased with his knowledge of dogs, the serene surroundings for him to walk a dog, and his patient attitude towards anxious dogs. ... and owners ;-). Thanks you, Jeremiah.”

About: Hello! I’m Valeria (you can call me Val) and I am a part time pet sitter. I currently work full time remotely. I enjoy running/walking at the park so having a partner tag along won’t be a problem. I am willing to provide any extra care your dog may need. This includes providing snacks, preparing specific meals, or even spending extra time outside. I have experience handling dogs, cats, birds, small animals and even chickens! I don’t have experience with senior dogs or giving injections/oral medication but I am willing to learn and will provide the best service for your babies needs. Feel free to message me for your specific needs or if you have any questions. Thanks! I usually let clients know my availability and advice on how I will structure my schedule to best accommodate their pets needs. During weekdays my availability is flexible because I work from home. I like to tour homes to be aware of exits/entrances, restricted areas (if there are any), and exchange contact info in case of an emergency.

About: Hello Hello! I’ve been caring for pets for 5 years - from energetic 10 week old puppies to 13 y/o senior dogs, (and many more in between!) - and I truly treat every animal like family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy pups to pets who need a little extra care or patience. Pet care is something I’m happy to incorporate into my routine! I’m currently in school, so I don’t have to work around a strict work schedule. I’m available for morning/ afternoon/ evening walks or visits, and I’m flexible with scheduling to fit your pet’s needs. Whether it’s a midday potty break and feeding or overnight care in your home, I’d be there to help make things easy and stress-free. When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping things as familiar and safe as possible. I’ll stick close to your pet’s usual routine- with feeding, walks, playtime, or medication- so they feel secure and comfortable while you’re away! I treat every home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’ll be mindful of your space, follow your instructions, and make sure your pet has everything they need. Whether I’m doing a quick drop-in or staying overnight, you can count on updates and photos, so you always know how things are going!
About: I have had years of experience with kids from babysitting and being a camp counselor along with pet setting. Parents would rely on me to take care of the kids as well! I currently work as a registered behavior technician from 9-1 and I’m also a junior at iusb studying health science! My classes are online for the summer session. The dogs will always have my full attention so I can always make sure they aren't getting into anything along as always having a play mate! I will make sure they eat great meals and have a great time.
About: I work at Petsmart as a Dog bather. I love dogs. During High school I did an internship at a vet clinic amd learned lots about medicine and how to do CPR. I've had lots of cats growing up and rescued them. I'm currently working at Petsmart been there since July 25'. I'm usually off Thursday's and Sunday's so I will always be here to help your pet. I can always give medication, pills or oral. I've taken care of sick animals during my time at my internship. I have lots of experience on older dogs and cats including the younger ones. I can bottle feed and take care of the young ones

“Lilliana was the best! Even with a short notice she was able to help and watch our Callie! She sent update photos which were amazing!! Overall will definitely be bringing my dog back!”
“Our golden retriever, Lexi, had a great time with Lindsay! Our family loved seeing the daily pictures of our sweet girl while we were away, and we loved knowing she was getting lots of good attention and time outside as well as the basics of food and potty time. If Lindsay has space next time we head out of town, we will gladly rebook.”
“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!”
“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: I have always grew up around dogs in my home and friends, family home. My grandma used to foster dogs and she taught me a lot I know about them including but not limited to administering shots and medications. I currently work full-time. However, the dog door and fenced in yard allows your dog to be out and roam freely while I am away. I am also okay to crate your dog if that is what you would prefer. When I get home it's usually clean, play, and dinner time. As the night goes on its movies and cuddles. I have a fenced in yard and a doggy door to let your dog(s) run around outside and play during the day freely as wanted. I love to take walks in the nice weather with the dogs and play fetch out in the yard. I have an indoor camera and outdoors cameras to keep eyes when I'm not home.
“Roy was fantastic! He sent pictures and updates everyday and Revan was exhausted when he got home, which is always a sign of a good dog sitter. He was also very accommodating with our timing and even set up a lock box so we could pick Revan up when it was convenient for us, even though he was at work. Will definitely book again!”
“Hailey and her fiancée are amazing! They kept our fur baby for two weeks (the longest we have had to leave him) and took such great care of him. They’re true dog lovers and I didn’t have to worry about our pup at all. Will definitely use them again!”
