“Leandra and Mark did an amazing job with our puppy. They are so personal with clients. They took such good care of our baby. I definitely will book again. Their availability is great especially for a puppy. They love playing with the puppy. They treated our puppy like he was their own. I look forward to them watching him again soon!”

“She was amazing with my puppy this last weekend. First time using Rover. Highly recommend her!! She sent me picture and video updates of my dog during his stay. He was very well cared for. Will use her again in the future!!!!!”

“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!”

“Christina is awesome! Because of my job, sometimes my requests are super last-minute. She’s been awesome with working around my schedule. My pup had a blast at her place and came home exhausted. She will continue to be my go-to sitter!”

“Great as always. Jaxson loves it there and always comes back home tired. Kevin's dogs Sly and Sage also play very well and Kevin is great about sending pictures and videos.”


“Our dog Samantha could not be happier when she stays with Julie and her husband, Joe. We feel very comfortable leaving Samantha with them. They kept a close eye on her and even noticed some ear issue that was communicated and taken care of right away. Highly recommend them!”

“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.”

“Excellent service is all I gotta say!! This was my dogs first time ever staying overnight with anyone besides her owners and she did really good, she doesn't like other animals so she had her own separate space! They kept me updated every few hours or so with videos and pictures, I will definitely be booking again! 😊”

“Clara’s kennel was comfy and cool for our dog during a lake vacation that didn’t allow pups. The fenced in play area is perfect and Tock enjoyed running around with the other dogs at her house. She was also flexible on pickup times which helped us on our roadtrip.”

“Daisy was the happiest I've ever seen her with someone else taking care of her. Emily is a treasure that I found. I'll be using her often. Thank you Emily! And her dogs were awesome with Daisy!”

“Jamie really helped us out by taking in Buddy on short notice allowing us to meet the sweet newest addition to our family. We could tell he had a very good time based on falling asleep immediately on the drive home. She was very good at communication. Highly recommend.”

“We are so thankful to have a trusted sitter for our girl! Our dog can be shy, but her body language around Betty shows that they have a definite rapport. :) Betty is fantastic with dogs and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. We will be back!”

“Bethanie was super responsive, professional and left no room for worry in the caretaking of our five four-legged kids while we attended our daughter's wedding in Michigan! She was also kind enough to help tech-challenged me with the Rover app as well as sending photos during our time away?. Very impressed and grateful!”

About: I've cared for both healthy cats and cats with underlying conditions. For 10 years I had a cat that was diabetic that I had to administer insulin to. My current cat is 15 and requires a lot of love and attention.My cat Mabel is a rescued kitten/ cat almost 16 years ago on Halloween night while coming home from work , about 4 cars ahead of me something went flying out the window . I was able to stop and pull over due to not having other cars behind me . It was very cold that night and the sun was just starting to set . I got out of my car and looked around for a few minutes but didn't see anything and I got ready to leave I hear faint cry and I turned and looked down into some tall weeds and there she was , this poor malnourished kitten crying for help . To make a long story short I got her home and the day my wife and I took her to vet . They kept her for 3 days running ivs into her . We able to come and after 3 days thinking she wasn't going make it. And here she is still with after such a traumatic start to her life . I am very grateful to have Mabel as my best friend and wouldn't trade for the world . I love you very much Mabel .
“Nannette did a great job with my cats! They are very shy but were comfortable with her and came out each time she visited. She was consistent in her visits and sent great pics so I knew all was well. Thank you!”

About: I have always had dogs in my life as pets. I have been house sitting for 10 years. My house sitting clients rely on me to exercise their dogs as well as feed and medicate their dogs. I have experience with all sizes and many breeds. I pet sit full time. I am available to be in the home with pets full time on most days with some exceptions for errands. I will not be offering boarding in my home but I take pride in taking care of your pets in their own homes. I follow all instructions and make sure I’m very clear on parents wishes and routines. I take care of your pet as if they were my own!
“My last pet sitter canceled last minute and everything went to crap as my cat pepper "drama king screaming demon" needs medicine for his stomach and anxiety in his old age. Sonny took my black fur ball of rage and distrust and made sure he had his medicine and space as pepper can be a bit "much" she gave lots of pictures and updates and was available within 2 days of booking which I desperately needed. She also worked with me as my family trip had gotten derailed when our car broke down and was willing to watch him for a bit longer as we figured out how to get home. She builds a great rapport and I can tell her own animals adore her and are VERY well socialized. Her kitten peaches ran up to me wanting to say hi and her dog ham was not aggressive in the least meeting me for the first time, he just wanted pats!”

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.

About: With 10 years of professional and compassionate animal care experience, I offer specialized services for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Whether you have a kitten or a senior cat, I am confident and comfortable providing the highest level of attention. (Or pretend they are not there, and just fill their bowl, whatever they prefer!)

“Yanya was great to work with as we needed dog care for our Goldendoodle at our campsite while we enjoyed a 10-hour train ride into ONT. Yanya was responsive, on-time, spent the entire hour with the dog walking and playing with her, and sent some great pictures/videos. I would definitely use her again if needed while in the area!”

“Paxton is delightful and really bonded with our Burleigh. She kept my plants alive during our absence which was above and beyond. She provided us with peace of mind that our cat and home were in good hands. She’s a peach!”

“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! ?”

“She was wonderful with Cliff!! He’s always so excited to see his friends! She sends lots of pictures throughout the day too, which I love! He’s always having so much fun!”

“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!”
“Chris took great care of our dog and provided some insight on his behaviors during the stay which will help with training. Will definitely be dropping him off for more stays in the future.”

“Christina was amazing! She gauges the dogs needs very well and I feel our pups were happier when we came back than when we dropped them off! Definitely use her, she will not disappoint.”


“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.”

“Betty was very attentive to our little, old chi (17). He seemed super relaxed and content when I picked him up. Having a fenced yard was a real treat for him. We would definitely use her again. 👍 Betty, thanks for the pics and updates each day that he was in your care. 🙂”

“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!”

“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.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my home since I was 7 years old, caring and loving for small to large dogs, across all ages. I am a proud parent of a 11 lb Chizer and work from home, which allows me to care for your dog throughout the day. My dog gets along with all sized dogs and loves buddies to play with, so your dog will not be alone. I work full time from home and will be around your dog at all times as we never leave our own dog alone. I am able to care for your dog during the weekend as well, as schedules permit. I have a small fenced area to allow your dog to play freely off leash. I also have a huge unfenced yard to take your dog for breaks and to walk around. Food and any medication will be provided per your guidance. Please let me know if your dog has any medical issues in advance so I can care for him/her appropriately.
“Lindsay was GREAT! We felt so comfortable leaving our pup with her and got photos throughout the day of her having lots of fun! She was super flexible with our timing for the day when plans changed, and even sent us home with an adorable goody bag. Will definitely be using her again! 12/10 recommend.”

“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!”

Also, if I am in your home I will be respectful as if it is my own.

About: Hi there!! I love both dogs and cats, and look forward to taking care of them. I've had many pets growing up. Habló Español también. As of right now I am available and flexible on time as school is out. I have been trying to find a second job, and would much rather prefer this to be my 2nd job as I enjoy going on runs with my dog and hanging out with my furbabies (I also have 2 cats). Why not make money while having fun and meeting new furbabies? I live near downtown Elkhart (heading towards Bristol). I live in a very safe and quiet neighborhood where there is plenty of space to walk, run, and enjoy a large field of grass (if allowed to be off leash).
“Emily and Ryan did a great job watching Hopscotch. They were easy to communicate with and were flexible with my schedule. I would recommend them if you need someone to watch your dog.”

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.
About: I am a mom who LOVES dogs! I love to go for walks, play in the yard, play catch, give treats and cuddle with all dogs. I have been dog sitting and walking for over 15 years and I have had a dog in my home my entire life. I have two doggies. One 5-year-old Golden Doodle and a 8-month old Bernedoodle that LOVES everyone - other dogs, kids, and cats! I am good at administering medications. My daughter and I are diabetics so we are well-versed in medical needs! I am very good at training if you would like your dog to learn to sit, stay or shake! We treat our fur-babies like they are a part of the family. I would love to take care of your special fur-baby!

About: For more than 15 years, I’ve cultivated a home dedicated to diverse animal care, from dogs and cats to rabbits, rats, mice, pigs, goats, and fish. My experience includes everything from daily care to nursing young and old back to health. I find profound fulfillment in the company of animals, prioritizing their well-being and delighting in their unique personalities. I'm currently working part time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your furry companions! I'm available all weekend. On weekdays I'm available between 10am-2pm and 6pm-6am. Your pets are safe with me whether in your home or out for a walk. You can rely on me to be timely, caring and patient.
About: Boarding services: I have a pet friendly home with no children. We have one small doggo that loves other dogs and enjoys making new friends. I am currently working from home. I have been a dog owner for my entire life and grew up on a farm. Dog walking: I try to walk at least two miles with my doggo a day. I can include your best friend in the walk and walk them wherever I need to go. I have been a dog owner all of my life and love getting them out into the world. House sitting: I have house/dog sat for many people from 2 weeks to a weekend. I can also just check in on your doggo if needed. My dog loves to also come along if allowed to meet new friends.
“From the minute our dog met Morgan I could tell things would go well. Morgan was very timely and sent pictures and details about each visit with our dog Leo. I was out of town and when I asked if she could do a couple of extra things to care for Leo she happily agreed. She is very trustworthy, attentive to details and caring. I look forward to having her help with Leo again in the future.”

About: I have experience with kittens and puppies. I have extra experience in caring for aging and older pets. Experienced in small pets as well. I love animals. I am a school social worker and have the summers off. I am looking to make some extra money. Lots of experience with dogs and cats. I recently lost my puggle Boomer and my golden doodle Ollie. Boomer was 15 and Ollie was 13. They had good lives and I miss them. I would like to make some extra money also.

Right now I'm more then willing to work with any schedule that helps benefit us both. I'm willing to make a drive if that's what's needed. I treat the pet and the owners stuff as if it's everything. I might clean up a bit of there's small stuff needed done. I'll clean up messes that are caused by any accidents in the home.
About: I volunteer at a shelter almost weekly, so I have tons of experience with different dog breeds and knowledge of administering pills and eye/ear drops! I work part-time currently, so I’m available Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I can also check in on Saturday and Sunday depending on the time when I work! I have two lovely smaller dogs at home that are crate trained and they get walked daily and are taken to the dog park weekly.
About: For several years I owned a Doggy B and B where the dogs were part of my family. There were no cages or crates which the owners really appreciated. They slept in bed with me, jumped and lounged on all the furniture, watched TV, ate plenty of homemade treats, went swimming in the pool and don't forget the car rides to the park and river. Every weekend I would shop for new, safe and tough toys. We celebrated holidays and birthdays with homemade pupcakes, presents and costumes. They also got a "report" card saying how their day was and what they did that day or weekend. There were lots of pictures taken and shared too. Areas and toys were thoroughly inspected each day to ensure a safe and fun playtime. I love pets! All kinds of them. Your pet will get my undivided attention. I bring toys & treats plus send lots of pictures while you're away. That way you can enjoy our pawty too. Since I can't have pets in my home, I'll come to your pet's home. I care for them like they are mine. Give them lots of pets, play with toys inside & outside, walk them on a leash several times a day, watch TV with them & most importantly, share the bed at night. I want your pet to feel comfortable & loved by me.

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 also have experience with smaller animals like bunnies, guinea pigs and hamsters if needed. Hope to talk to you soon if you are interested! 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.

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.

“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.”

“Excellent service is all I gotta say!! This was my dogs first time ever staying overnight with anyone besides her owners and she did really good, she doesn't like other animals so she had her own separate space! They kept me updated every few hours or so with videos and pictures, I will definitely be booking again! 😊”

“Clara’s kennel was comfy and cool for our dog during a lake vacation that didn’t allow pups. The fenced in play area is perfect and Tock enjoyed running around with the other dogs at her house. She was also flexible on pickup times which helped us on our roadtrip.”

“Daisy was the happiest I've ever seen her with someone else taking care of her. Emily is a treasure that I found. I'll be using her often. Thank you Emily! And her dogs were awesome with Daisy!”

“Jamie really helped us out by taking in Buddy on short notice allowing us to meet the sweet newest addition to our family. We could tell he had a very good time based on falling asleep immediately on the drive home. She was very good at communication. Highly recommend.”

“Tiffani was great with my Rudy. Treated him like her own. Great communication with me. Never worried for a minute that he wasn't having the best care. I know he had a great time because he was worn out when I picked him up. Not an easy thing to do with an active puppy like my Rudy. I would highly recommend Tiffani and will definitely have her look after him next time I am in town.”

“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.”

“Lindsay is literally the definition of a GODSEND when it comes to dog sitting & taking care of your pet when you have to leave him or her behind going out of town. This was my second time leaving my dog (Hank) with Lindsay and her family, and for as long as I live here in the South Bend/Michiana area I will never look elsewhere for a sitter. She truly treats ALL dogs as if they are her own, and ensures that each and every one of them has a remarkable experience under her care. I promise promise promise there is no better sitter in the area, so if you’re looking for someone to look after a pet you love so dearly, look no further because Lindsay & her family are the best there is. I will forever be thankful I found her & will continue to use her as often as I can throughout the near future!”

“Hanna was absolutely fantastic with my 2 dogs! She was attentive to all of my requests as a dog parent, she sent constant picture updates of them having fun, and she returned them to me in wonderful spirits and cleaner than before. For anyone in need of a dog sitter, look no further. She is a reliable and wonderful caretaker.”
