Dog Walking in Wooded Estates, South Bend, IN

“Emily is always super-reliable in every way and our dog Jilly enjoys walking with her so much that she has stopped barking at the doorbell as she always hopes it might be Emily!”

“Heather does outstanding with my two girls! My littlest baby lupita who has always been very fearful of strangers absolutely loves her. She usually takes a while to warm up to new people but met heather the first day and loved her. My oldest girl Nana is a big love bug so she of course had to be all over her the first day she met her. Heather made the process of trusting someone other than myself to love and care for my babies as I would a very easy and stressless process. She accommodated all the special needs of my girls, checked in frequently, and answered any questions I had. She was very flexible with her schedule when a change of walking time was needed. I have nothing but good things to say about heather and could not have picked a better person to trust my baby girls with.”

About: I love hanging out with dogs and getting to know them. I love playing and walking with them and I have a lot of experience doing so. I have been dog sitting for about 4 years now for my families friends and I have taken care of elder dogs and puppies and dogs that have needed to take medication. I do have experience with 100+ pound dogs that pull on the leashes. If you do need me to walk a bigger dog, please tell me what the dog will react to so I can be prepared to walk them. If there are two bigger dogs, I will not book until I know if they are reactive to anything. I am also able to take care of other small animals like amphibians, reptiles, fish, and even farm animals. If you do have farm animals, I do require a meet and greet. i can always take care of your dog after 10am throughout the week and anytime on the weekends. I can also take your dog to a local park or path and walk then there! I will typically go to copus, central park, or east race but whatever is closest I will go to. If you have a recommended place for me to go, I will go there. This will typically take an hour and that includes the drive there and back. This service costs 40 dollars. At my own home, I make sure my pets have a very stimulating environment and I try to play with them as much as a can. I will do the same with your friends. I am also available to water plants, take in the mail, and do other house activities if I am doing a drop in visit only. Just let me know ahead or time or leave me a note, and I will make sure to get the chores done.

About: Ive never been able to have a dog of my own, so ive spent my time growing up caring for others. Ive been dog sitting since I was little. My first official job was at a dog hotel, I worked there for a little over 2 years! I also worked for a dog walking / pet sitting company! I’m currently in classes online so I have tons of time to take care of your fur-babies! I am very available for anytime you may need a sitter! I will follow directions provided for each service. I have years of experience and know how to handle any situation given to me to ensure the safety of your pet!

About: I’ve had dogs for over 10 years, especially small dogs, as well as cats for the last three. I enjoy taking care of all creatures, great and small, and I live in a neighborhood perfect for walking. I do have a standard 9 to 5 jobs, but they are OK with pets in the building. I am easily able to take them outside for potty break. I have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe. It is the perfect area to go for a walk. There is an open space in the middle of the neighborhood. Great for playing fetch. I have aI have a neighborhood with only one entrance before cars, and is extremely safe.

About: I started sitting and walking dogs on Rover six years ago as a way to spend time with pups when I wasn’t in a place to have a dog of my own. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and am now a proud dog mom to a young, friendly Bernadoodle. My pup and I love making new doggy friends and spend lots of time outside in our fenced backyard with our Rover dogs. My yard has plenty of space for games of fetch and tug. I limit my Rover sits to one new dog (or new family) at a time in order to ensure your dog’s safety and give your pup as much of my attention as possible. I’m an avid walker and runner, so if you’re not looking for boarding services, I’d love to get some steps with your furry friend. Send me a message and let’s set up a meet and greet 😊 I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’ll be around your pup nearly all day if boarded at my place. I’m also able to commute throughout the day for drop in visits and walks. I have a fenced in, grassy backyard that’s perfect for playing with a dog. I live in a quiet, very dog-friendly neighborhood great for walks/runs. Your dog will spend their days playing with my pup and is likely to meet other dogs on our walks. If invited to care for your dog(s) at your own home, I will ensure the utmost level of cleanliness and care for your space.

“Melissa is fantastic. My little anxious dog is new to drop in visits while I'm gone, but Melissa showed her exactly the patience and kindness she needed to get comfortable. Olive treats her like a great friend every time she sees her now! I'd recommend Melissa to anyone without hesitation.”

“We are so happy to have found Michaela! Rainer is thrilled when she comes to visit. Michaela is punctual, careful, and considerate, and was willing to work with Rainer despite his reluctance to walk. She leaves detailed accounts of her visits and in general has a wonderful sense of what dogs need. Thank you, Michaela!”

About: I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands when you’re away - I’ve spent my entire life caring for dogs, cats, and birds I work remotely for the most part so I'm flexible. I can work my other job at my pace and can ensure your fur baby has plenty of attention. My home has a fenced yard. I have a spare room if your animal like their space. I enjoy outside time if your animals likes walks.

“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!!”

“My dog is so picky, and she was so patient with him! Took care of him like he was her own dog. Showed him love, and he was just as excited to see her as he is to see me, so that says a lot about Kaitlyn! I will definitely consider her in the future if I need someone to care for and walk my fur baby. Excellent service!”

About: Whether it be dogs, cats, horses, cows, or any animal in-between, I've been raised around animals all of my life. I've had a dog that I've cared for on my own since I was nine years old and couldn't imagine my life without one. With over 15 years of pet care experience, I'm more than comfortable handling your pet from the puppy/kitten stage to their golden senior years, and have experience with medication administration and special care attention. I currently have a three year old Australian Shepherd of my own, and so have no issue handling dogs with a stronger need for mental stimulation and exercise. Whether it be a simple check-in at the home, to a walk around the neighborhood, to taking your dog to the local park or joining me on a run, I'm happy to ensure that we keep your dog to the schedule he/she prefers at your comfort level! If you happen to have a feline friend instead, I have several years experience babysitting for the neighborhood and college friends' cats, and am more than happy to watch over your fur baby while you're away.

About: I have had many kinds of pets, from turtles to birds to cats to dogs to horses. Now that I'm retired, I have time, knowledge and experience to share with others who need support for the care of their pets. A retired teacher who is home most of the time. I have time to give, and I would like to help others with pet care. I love to walk, and I'd love to walk your dog. I have time to stop by and care for your pets in your home. If you need to board your pet, I have a quiet home and would enjoy having your pet in my home. My home is I have a fenced yard for dogs and cozy boxes by windows and two litter boxes for cats. I am careful to follow owner's instructions to follow the routines their pets are used to and to provide visiting pets with any particular medical care they need as well as affectionate attention and exercise.

About: I’ve taken care of family members’ pets since I was about 13. However, in the last 3 years I’ve built up my client list and have 4 consistent customers whose dogs, cats, and parrots I watch for days at a time. I’m trusted with house keys to watch their animals, feed them at specific times, administer needed medications at specific times, take them for walks, and give lots of love and attention. I’m currently working full time (9-5) in downtown Chicago. I live in Uptown, and would love to make some extra cash on the side doing something I really enjoy - walking dogs! My availability M-F is any time after 6. On the weekends I’m very flexible and open to anything. Unfortunately, at this time in my life I will not be providing home boarding, crating, or pet-sitting services at my own personal residence. Sorry for the inconvenience.

About: I have been taking care of all kinds of pets since I was 8. I have a German Shorthaired pointer now so I can definitely handle some high energy dogs. I have many other pets including a cat, Guinea pigs, some reptiles, and fish so I am ready for anything! I am currently going to school to be a veterinarian so you can imagine how much I love pets! I have taken care of plenty of pets owned by friends and family and I am excited to have the opportunity to take care of yours! I am currently out of school for the summer so I have plenty of free time to play with, walk, feed, and watch your pets! I can’t currently board pets but I am willing to do whatever is needed for your pets in your home! Just give me instructions and I can do just about anything!

About: Regardless of the size, breed, or age of your pet, I can promise we will be best friends by the end of our visit! I have taken care of just about every type of dog, from corgi puppies to 10 year old boxer-pit bull mixes. I grew up with two yellow labs, and know how to treat your four legged friend as an extension of my own family. I also volunteer for Eyes, Ears, Nose, and Paws, a service dog training organization. From the 2 years I have assisted this program, I have gained experience in fostering dogs of all ages, dog walking, general care, taking dogs to appointments, and potty training. I am a part-time student at UNC Chapel Hill, and do not currently work. I have one 2 hour class Monday-Friday, other than that I will have ample time throughout the day to care for your dog! I will walk/exercise your dog whenever necessary, have a large and easily accessed grass area within a 2 minute walk of my apartment, and have no other pets that could interfere with my ability to care for your dog. If your dog is active, I will happily play with and entertain it, I can also simply keep it company and work on school work. Plus, I’ll send lots of photos!
