“She took amazing care of my dog onyx. So much that he didn’t even want to come home with me 😭🤣 recommended 10/10!!! Definitely recommend booking with her again when going on vacation!”
“Leandra and Mark were amazing! We left our behaviorly challenged yorkie with them for a week and they handled him like professionals! We we got back it was like he was on vacation not us! He clearly loved them and di so well! We hope to use them for future vacation needs. We could not have asked for a better place for our fur baby to stay while we were gone. ❤️🫶🥰”
“Anna provided the most impeccable care for my fur babies while I was out of town. She provided numerous pictures and went above and beyond in ensuring I was comfortable while they were there.”
“We loved having Jennifer & Larry watch our two girls. They sent us pictures and updates 2x a day. And our girls were really happy with being able to explore inside and outside as they had access to go outside on their own. 100% will ask them to watch our girls again.”
“I would highly recommend Christina! She took such good care of my puppy who is about 60 pounds. He was able to run around in their yard and it looked like he had a lot of fun. I also had to travel during the stay and she was very flexible with drop off and pick up times.”
“Faith and her Family are great! I’ve felt so comfortable leaving my fur babies with them! The photos and videos I got daily showed how much they enjoyed and cared for them while they were there. I will definitely keep faith as my go to when I need a pup sitter!”
“I’m grateful we found Kevin for our Bodie. He sent updates and Bodie was having a blast with his dogs and in the backyard. I doubt our dog knew we were gone for the weekend.”
“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!!! 🫶🏼”
“Luke was extremely kind and has a nice fenced in backyard that Henry was able to play in all day. He was also very communicative and went the extra mile to make sure Henry had fun. I would highly recommend!”
“I have an older that needs a lot of attention and Kristen took the time to listen to what she needed and made sure she got her medication. She made sure my dog was safe, and sent me updates and pictures throughout her stay.”

“Katherine was amazing with Odie! He stayed with her for five days and kept me updated on him by sending me pictures and brief daily messages. Before Odie's stay, she invited me to the meet and greet so that Odie could get to know her and other members of the household. Our conversation that day, and the way she interacted with Odie, let me know that she would be a perfect caretaker for him. I felt at ease the whole time I was away knowing that he was in good hands. I definitely plan on booking with her again!”
“Betty was great with Jemma. She gave her extra care and attention with her overnight stay. I hope she can visit again when we make it back to Indiana in the future. Thank you Betty.”
“Chris did a great job with my Triton. He kept me updated with photos and was even able to navigate his anxiety during the fire works. My pup came back to me the same way I left him and I will advise anyone to use his services.”
“This was my dog’s first time boarding and he is a very excited dog, but kudos to Tiffani for taking such great care of our dog. Also appreciate you for taking last minute booking.”
“Paul & Kelly took excellent care of Dewey and were easy to work with. I came over before my trip for a meet & greet and they were very reassuring. I got regular updates & pictures. Dewey loved the big yard & got lots of gentle attention & play time from the Boys.”
“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!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, along with my reliability and attention to detail. As a nurse, I provide compassionate care every day and understand how important it is to make others feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I am experienced in following detailed instructions, maintaining routines, and staying calm in unexpected situations. I’m also comfortable caring for pets who need medications or extra attention. Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive plenty of love, patience, and companionship while giving owners peace of mind that their furry family member is in caring and responsible hands. As a full-time nurse working night shift, I have a flexible daytime schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. On my days off, I have even more availability for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I understand the importance of consistency and routine for pets, and I make sure they receive attentive, reliable care while their owners are away. I care for pets by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I try to follow all feeding schedules, provide fresh water, administer medications if needed, take dogs for walks and potty breaks, clean up after them, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are being well cared for. My goal is to provide a safe, reliable, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners.
“Bethany was so sweet and I can’t say enough good things about her drop in visits and the adorable pictures she took of Lola 🫶🏻 can’t wait to take another weekend get away and use her again”
“Alerie was amazing. She really understands dogs. We have a Great Dane and she knew right away at the meet and greet how to Introduce herself. We spent the day away knowing our babies were in good hands. Thank you so much again. Highly recommend!!!”
About: Even though I love dogs, cats will always have my heart. They are amazing and often misunderstood breed. I’ve spent a great deal around them, especially in the summer looking after my aunt’s cat farm with multiple cats with different personalities. With this experience I can confidently say I’m great at reading and interpreting cat behavior. I have also administered meditation to both dogs and cats. I have zero problem cleaning litter boxes and taking care of many cats.
“Raquel did a great job. I really appreciate her putting our Chewey order away too. (Always seems to come when I am gone.) She checked w/ me when she had questions and gained the trust of our timid kitty.”
About: Ive taken care of cats and been around them my whole life. They are the first animal that taught me responsibility when I was young. I’ve even nursed VERY young farm kittens that were abandoned by their mom. I love all cats and can care for every age!
About: I love all kinds of animals! I have 2 dogs of my own -- a German shepherd and Black lab -- and I have taken care of them since we got them when I was 12. Every time I encounter a new animal, I stop whatever I’m doing to play/pet/love on him or her! Animals are one of the favorite things on the planet and nothing makes me happier than knowing that they are happy! I plan to take incredible care of your animals and give them the best treatment! :) I am completely flexible this summer and able to provide whatever care you need for your fur babies! Let me know what your schedule is and I will make it work! If I'm providing pet care in your home, I will follow any special instructions closely regarding food, medicine, and any other needs! I will help to maintain your pet's routine as much as possible while keeping your home tidy and secure. I will make communication with you a priority!
“My cat had a rough time adjusting at first and she was so patient with him as he was settling in! After he adjusted he loved being there, and I love the pictures I got from Anna from his stay! If I ever need someone to watch him again I will definitely be going to Anna!”
“Hanna is awesome! I am glad she has been there for me all of this time, and will miss her when she moves. Anyone who needs someone to look after their babies near her new home would be more than pleased with her responsiveness and understanding. Thanks Hanna for all you’ve done!”
“Jennifer did a great job dropping in to feed our cats and horse while out of town. Setting up a meet and greet was quick and she has been great to communicate with. I definitely recommend booking her!”
“Lila provided exceptional care for my three cats, each with completely different personalities and care routines. She was consistently reliable, communicative, and attentive to every detail, giving me total peace of mind while I was away. Her thorough daily updates and detailed notes showed how genuinely invested she was in their well-being. I came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and couldn’t be more impressed. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter.”
“Emie is amazing! I have a difficult pet & was very comfortable with Emie watching her because she was so friendly & followed my very intense instructions hahaha. I would definitely use her again! ?”
About: While I have never had a cat of my own, I have lots of love for them! I have experience with feeding, administering medication, litter box cleaning, etc. I also know cats usually develop their own little preferences and routines. With that being said, I know my organizational skills and attention to detail would come in handy. In my experience in pet and child care, I care for them like they are my own! ❤️

“We needed daycare for our dog while in town on business. Josie’s name came up and her reviews were glowing so we booked with her. I can attest that every review is true. Josie took as good of care of Winston as I do. She played with him, took him on walks and loved on him. She thought enough about him and us to send pictures. We will be back in Elkhart in April and Josie will be who we make an appt with. I can’t recommend her enough. Five stars are not enough, wish there were ten!”
“I knew right away our Pup was in good and loving hands. Betty is so kind and she let us know throughout the day how our little guy was doing. We would definitely use her services again.”
“This was Mason's second stay with Kristen and he was very excited to go and had a great time! Was kept up to date throughout the day with pictures. Will definitely use again!”
“Anna was great to work with. We're new to Rover and she answered any questions and was very accommodating to our needs for the day care. We're from out of town and using Rover and Anna made our stay easy for times during the day when our dog could not be with us. We would definitely use Anna when back in the area.”

About: New to Rover.com but 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. 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.
“Stephanie did great watching our pup. We needed a sitter last minute and she was quick to respond & help out. She took Harley on a walk and sent us update pics. Harley was exhausted when she got home which is not an easy thing to do, so she must have had fun. We will definitely be using Stephanie again.”
“I simply couldn't ask for more. Anna is the absolute BEST! My dog came home happy, healthy and tired. It's a good tired. She doesn't get nearly enough activity here at home. She gets lots of great activity at Anna's house.”
“Our dog had such a great time with Lindsay! She sent photo updates and even sent our pup home with a cute bandana. Lindsay was so great with our pup - we will continue to use her for our doggy day care needs.”

“Flexible and an understanding caregiver for our active poodle. We were visiting out of state and Sonny was able to accommodate us last minute. Sonny sent us photos, videos, and updates through-out the day, which helped my family be more at ease. We will be using Sonny’s services when we visit next time.”
“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.”

Both my girls are in school so I have a lot of free time I’d love to use on with helping some furbabies 💕 I live in an apartment right of the millrace so we love walls on the trail! We also love going to the dog park here in goshen because it’s always empty. I will make sure your furbaby is very well cared for in the time they are with me 💕

About: I've lived around dogs for most my life, with a range of sizes and needs. From small Pugs who snore the night away to Great Danes who think they are still a puppy. Have a high energy pupper who needs someone to keep up no worries. Currently I work part time until August 19th when I go back to the classroom. But until that time I'm mostly available all week long. I'm mostly looking at doing walks and check ins at this time as I have a number of home projects that would make boarding difficult.
“Irene is a good communicator and is flexible. She walked my dog the day after I booked her and I appreciated her for doing it on short notice. She clearly loves dogs and is looking to pursue a career working with them. She is patient and kind and I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again.”
“Nikki’s genuine passion for animals is evident in my dog’s reaction every time they see her. Just the simple act of coming to the house to get them makes them ecstatic. They can hear a car as soon as it enters our driveway, and when they see her car, they start barking and howling and wanting their leash on. Just the little bit of time she spends with them has really changed their activity level at home. Nikki is their new friend and they love her so much.”

About: I’ve taken care of my two Labs ever since I was 6 years old, (i’m 21 now) and have been dog sitting and cat sitting the past four summers!! Also I have worked in a vet clinic the past four years as well. I have the special skill of administering medication! I’m currently working part time at the vet clinic in the afternoons and it’s only 2-4 days a week usually. I can dog walk or pet sit in my free time during the day and on weekends. Possibly for a week or so. I unfortunately cannot watch them in my own home due to not having a good yard for them because it has a pool and not much area to run around. And also my dads allergies. I would have to watch them in your home.
About: I've been caring for animals for 15 years and have had pets my entire life. While living on a farm for many years, I was responsible for the daily care of a variety of animals, including feeding, watering, cleaning, monitoring their health, and making sure they felt safe and cared for. In addition to my own animals, I've regularly cared for family members' and friends' pets while they were away, providing dependable, loving care and giving pet owners peace of mind. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for. As a lifelong animal lover, I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide a safe, happy, and stress-free experience while you're away. As a mom and animal lover, I know how important it is to trust someone with the ones you love most. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a lifelong pet owner with years of experience caring for animals, I'm accustomed to feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and providing plenty of love and attention throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to accommodate your pet's needs, whether that means regular walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or sticking to a specific routine they're used to. I understand how important consistency is for pets and will do my best to maintain their normal schedule while you're away. Caring for animals has always been a part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. Your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness will always be a top priority. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. While my yard is not fenced, all pets are closely supervised when outside. My own dog either uses a secure cable for potty breaks or stays by my side while outdoors and is well-trained to remain close. For visiting pets, I follow the owner's preferences and take extra precautions to ensure their safety. Pets are never left unattended outdoors and are always kept on a leash, cable, or under direct supervision. Inside the home, I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their routines, follow all care instructions carefully, and provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while they're away.
About: I love caring for others animals, and look forward to helping your family. I have a 13-year-old black lab and used to have a 20-year-old cat that I have helped take care of since they were born! I am used to walking animals, giving them tons of attention, feeding them and I have experience giving medication to dogs and cats, as my dog had diabetes and my cat needed a shot every once in a while.

I’m currently at home working part time so I’ll have a lot of availability. My schedule varies week by week but I usually know it a couple weeks in advance! I have no problem doing home visits or staying the night with your pets at your home if that is what you are looking for. I am available both week days and weekends, and try to update my availability as often as I can! Unfortunately, I can not provide home services at the moment due to having my own pets at home, but am very experienced staying with pets at their own home!
About: Have experience with caring for multiple pets at once, including puppies, elderly cats & dogs, & diabetic pets. Would love to help take care of your family members! I WFH and set my own schedule, so I'm very flexible in regards to my house sitting availability! As for walking, mostly available during the week but can negotiate for weekends in certain cases.

“She took amazing care of my dog onyx. So much that he didn’t even want to come home with me 😭🤣 recommended 10/10!!! Definitely recommend booking with her again when going on vacation!”
“Leandra and Mark were amazing! We left our behaviorly challenged yorkie with them for a week and they handled him like professionals! We we got back it was like he was on vacation not us! He clearly loved them and di so well! We hope to use them for future vacation needs. We could not have asked for a better place for our fur baby to stay while we were gone. ❤️🫶🥰”
“Anna provided the most impeccable care for my fur babies while I was out of town. She provided numerous pictures and went above and beyond in ensuring I was comfortable while they were there.”
“We loved having Jennifer & Larry watch our two girls. They sent us pictures and updates 2x a day. And our girls were really happy with being able to explore inside and outside as they had access to go outside on their own. 100% will ask them to watch our girls again.”
“I would highly recommend Christina! She took such good care of my puppy who is about 60 pounds. He was able to run around in their yard and it looked like he had a lot of fun. I also had to travel during the stay and she was very flexible with drop off and pick up times.”
“I’m grateful we found Kevin for our Bodie. He sent updates and Bodie was having a blast with his dogs and in the backyard. I doubt our dog knew we were gone for the weekend.”
“Luke was extremely kind and has a nice fenced in backyard that Henry was able to play in all day. He was also very communicative and went the extra mile to make sure Henry had fun. I would highly recommend!”
“I have an older that needs a lot of attention and Kristen took the time to listen to what she needed and made sure she got her medication. She made sure my dog was safe, and sent me updates and pictures throughout her stay.”
“Katherine was amazing with Odie! He stayed with her for five days and kept me updated on him by sending me pictures and brief daily messages. Before Odie's stay, she invited me to the meet and greet so that Odie could get to know her and other members of the household. Our conversation that day, and the way she interacted with Odie, let me know that she would be a perfect caretaker for him. I felt at ease the whole time I was away knowing that he was in good hands. I definitely plan on booking with her again!”
“Chris did a great job with my Triton. He kept me updated with photos and was even able to navigate his anxiety during the fire works. My pup came back to me the same way I left him and I will advise anyone to use his services.”
“This was my dog’s first time boarding and he is a very excited dog, but kudos to Tiffani for taking such great care of our dog. Also appreciate you for taking last minute booking.”
“Paul & Kelly took excellent care of Dewey and were easy to work with. I came over before my trip for a meet & greet and they were very reassuring. I got regular updates & pictures. Dewey loved the big yard & got lots of gentle attention & play time from the Boys.”
“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!”
“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.”
“Rex had an amazing stay with Andrew and Jane! we would definitely have him stay there again, they were great with communication and sent us videos and photo updates.”
“Emily was the best dog sitter we have ever had! She made sure Sparky followed his usual schedule with feeding, walks and playtime. He got plenty of attention and love from Emily and her kids. We got frequent updates, pictures and videos, which reassured us Sparky was being well taken care of. We highly recommend Emily to anyone who wants a fabulous dog sitter!”
“Lanae did an awesome job with sending us pictures and letting us know that Molly was having a great time. We will definitely be using Lanae again, if the need arises, when we are in the area. Thanks again for a great job!”
