“Ronica did an amazing job caring for our dog, Leia, while we were out of town for a week. From the first meet and greet we knew she would be the perfect fit. She was professional and her communication was excellent. A bonus for us: she was less than a mile away. We look forward to being repeat customers!”

About: I have walked dogs for two years at a local animal shelter during college and loved giving the pups time out of their kennels for a change. I go above and beyond to ensure the dog is happy and to adapt to their unique walking styles. I graduated from Purdue University West Lafayette in May 2025 with degrees in Pharmaceutical Sciences and Sociology. I have sense then moved back home to Fort Wayne and looking to get into the animal care industry as well as build my skills with animal care, including volunteering with livestock and large animals such as horses. I am currently doing my residency for medical laboratory and I work part time as well, so my schedule is a bit tight but I have and will continue to always make something work and accommodate my clients and furry friends. I am very respectful of individuals and their spaces, and will ensure that I oblige by all your boundaries. I am willing to go above and beyond with any other quick tasks in your home.

About: I am a mom of 2 college-aged kids. I work from home and have time and love to share. I have owned my own pets since graduating from college. My family has been blessed with multiple dogs, cats, horses, goats and chickens. We no longer live on a farm but live in a very animal-friendly subdivision with abundant sidewalks for dog walking. My daughter and I are animal lovers and have fostered 4 puppies and numerous adult dogs waiting for transportation to their furever homes. We also volunteer seasonally with the Humane Society of Cozumel and assist with spay/neuter recovery. We welcome the energy that 4-legged visitors bring to our home. We have an adopted, aging chihuahua mix who is not very active. I would love to talk to you and meet your babies before either of us makes a commitment. Of course, it has to be a good fit. Your confidence and trust in a pet-sitter is crucial. I believe I can be the one to love and care for your baby like you do. I live in the Sw suburbs and have a large fenced backyard that backs up to a wooded area. We have lots of great sidewalks for taking long walks with little traffic. I work from home online Monday through Friday. My schedule is flexible and I enjoy the company that dogs provide. I can provide plenty of outside time and playtime during the day. I have a large fenced in backyard. I also provide walks in my neighborhood or yours. The activity level is dependent on your pets needs. I always feed dogs separately.

About: Hi! I’m Alicia. I’m a second grade teacher and lifelong Fort Wayne resident. I’ve had pets my entire life, but currently have none of my own, so I’m looking forward to babying yours while you’re away! I am very flexible during the summer, school holiday breaks & weekends, but I also continue Rover services during the school week as well. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets behind, so I’m grateful for the opportunity to offer them a quiet, kid-free, pet-free, low-stress environment to settle into while you’re away. I’m extremely reliable, caring, and patient. Whether your pet needs medication, a consistent routine, or extra time to warm up to someone, I’m happy to adjust to whatever works best for them (and for you). Whether I’m with them for a drop-in or overnight stay, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Plus, I love to take pictures and document our adventures, so you can expect regular updates and plenty of photos while you’re away. Feel free to reach out to set up a time to chat or schedule a meet and greet! As a teacher, my summers are especially flexible for drop-ins, daycare, and overnight stays. When school starts (August-May), I’m limited to before and after school drop-ins, but always open to schedule overnight stays at your house or mine especially on weekends or holidays! At my house, your pets will be the only pets in the home, so they’ll get all of the attention they deserve! My house is pet-proofed and I’m very committed to ensuring your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for.

About: I grew up with both cats and dogs and have been providing pet care on the side for 15+ years. I have experience with high need animals, and would love to give you peace of mind while you're away from your fur babies. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to stick to your pet's normal schedule. I can provide as many potty breaks as your dog needs! I am respectful of others' space and privacy, and will take excellent care of your home. Since my schedule is flexible, I prefer to stick to the schedule that the pet is typically used to. You just specify at what times your pet eats and walks, and I will abide by that schedule.

About: I love animals, I grow up on a ranch for most of my childhood. I've been around and taken care of all kinds of animals throughout the years; dogs, cats chickens, goats, pigs, ducks, and turkeys. I've had a number of dogs that are all different breads; my chihuahua Daisy that I had since she was a pup until she was 9 years old. My three beautiful mixed Black Labs/ Chows Bob, Rita, and Uno. Bob and Rita came to us together and unbeknownst to us Rita was pregnant. Shortly after we got Uno who was the first of his litter of 9. My last pup was Bobby a sweet beautiful Pitbull that my brother and I rescued when he was about 3 years old. I currently have no pets to call my own, sense moving to the Fort Wayne area. I miss having the company of a fur baby of my own. I have house and dog sit for a number of friends and colleagues and I absolutely love it. I would love the opportunity meet, play and nap with new furry friends. I currently do contract work and don’t have a set schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I’m often available during the day, in the evenings, and on weekends. Since I’m new to Fort Wayne, I would love having a furry walking buddy while I explore the area’s parks and trails! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. During drop-in visits, I will carefully follow your instructions for feeding, water, medication, playtime, walks, and any other needs. I’ll treat your pet and home with respect, keep doors and gates secure, and provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and receiving plenty of attention. I do not currently offer boarding or daycare in my home.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a child and can’t imagine my life without pets. I’ve got friends and neighbors who rely on me to visit, feed, play and stay for overnights or vacations with their pets. Would love to help others with their pet needs! I’m currently open for clients and their needs whenever needed. I have an open schedule and am ready to work with anyone on helping with their pets. Whether drop in visits or staying over at friends/neighbors houses I follow any guidelines given by the pet owners. I’m very trustworthy and do what I can to ensure the pets stay safe under my care.

I also know how to make the most out of any time spent with a dog! Pet care is my number one priority for an animal I take care of! I will always make sure that the animal is the top priority when we go anywhere. I always put the dogs safety before my own. I will watch for other dogs and loose animals when we go on walks. When sitting in the past I let the parent know of the times I let the dog out or do anything with the animal. I will send many cute pictures for updates of what is going on!

About: Growing up my family always had dogs & a cat. I recently graduated from IU with a degree in biology. I’ve been taking care of my sister’s two dogs for about two years now. She relies on me to feed, walk & play with her dogs during the work day. I also have experience taking care of them for extended periods of time while she is out of town. I’m currently working part-time in retail, so I have plenty of time to spend taking care of your pet(s)! I love to take walks and play frisbee/fetch with my sister’s dogs.

About: I've had a dog since I was roughly 9 and she passed away recently so I'd like to spend some of my love of dogs with your dogs! I currently have 2 cats, Ekko and Demeter. I work a swing shift with a set schedule so I can usually schedule walks in pretty easily! Generally I'm more busy on 1 week at work than the next week so most of my availability is on the short week. I treat your pets with love and care as I treat my own, if this is their time during the day you're at work that they are allowed to go outside then I'll make sure to let them sniff and walk a little extra.
