About: Growing up I’ve always had a love for animals. We had a range of different pets, you ask and I probably had one! I have worked a few years in a grooming salon. Friends and family have made me the go to person to pet sit for them when it’s needed. I enjoy it every single time and can’t pass up the opportunity. I have three dogs and one cat of my own. “Be the person your dog thinks you are.” Pet care is my focus on a full-time career. Whatever needs you may want we can work something out to accommodate those needs. Available during the week anytime and occasional weekends, as pet care is my full time job! Every pet and client is different. You tell me your needs and wants and they will be implemented. Lots of love and belly rubs will be given to your fur baby. We will become best friends!

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 this summer! 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: My husband and I have taken care of animals our whole lives! Together we have had 3 dogs and 3 cats. Currently we have a Great Dane and Golden Retriever! We know that sometimes we need an extra hand with our little loved ones! We would love to do that for anyone in need. :) I am currently working full time and have breaks throughout the day! My husband is not working at the moment though and has full availability! :) We have a fenced in yard and 2 other doggies to keep your fur baby company! We do have a 6 month old, so we just want to ensure that your pet is baby friendly! :)

“Alexis is absolutely awesome! She does such a great job watching Brutus and always makes sure he’s happy, safe, and well cared for. You can tell she genuinely cares about him, and that gives us total peace of mind. Brutus loves her, and we couldn’t ask for a better person to trust with him. Highly recommend Alexis to anyone looking for someone reliable and amazing with dogs!”

About: I have owned dogs for most of my life, usually rescues from the pound until I fell in love with the keeshond breed. I have handled everything from 2 month old puppies to senior dogs. Hello. My name is Diana. I am a stay-at-home mom with 2 dogs of my own (a friendly but old lady 10 yr old Bischon Frise and a goofy, very active 10 month old Keeshond. I am willing to work with many different personalities and will cater to your dog’s specific needs. Rest assured that I will treat your dogs like they are part of my own family. I live in a clean, smoke free home with plenty of room for your furr baby to stretch their paws and have a good time. If they enjoy the outdoors im just a 10 minute walk to The Pufferbelly Trail. I will provide regular updates and focus on creating a safe, fun environment for every dog, ensuring they get tailored attention and enrichment. I'm excited to meet you and your furry friend! I have everything needed to take care of both puppies and elderly dogs. A large home with lots of space both inside and outside and plenty of toys for them to enjoy!

About: Hi!! I’m Taylor! Your dogs new bestie, I’ve owned dogs my whole life. I am also a healthcare provider taking a break right now. I am usually the first person my friends and family ask to watch their animals! I enjoy long dog walks, parks, dog snuggles and hanging out. I am home all day right now, looking to fill my time. I’d love to take your pet for walks to nearby parks, listen to Taylor Swift together or snuggle on the couch watching movies. I have a huge yard and a very sweet eight year old labradoodle that loves all dogs, and cats. All animals are welcome on the couch or bed! Whatever makes them comfortable.

About: Our family has taken care of friends’ dogs and cats for four years or more. We are now offering our pet services to more ‘07 neighbors. During summers we are available at all waking hours of any days we’re not on a family vacation. During the school year we lose family pet minders during the school day but are available after school and on weekends. We have experience letting ourselves into owners’ homes while they are away to feed, walk, and let pets out for bathroom breaks. We also have a large fenced in yard occupied by our very friendly golden retriever to share with dogs who will treat him well.

“Sorry for the late review, Bella really had a great time. She was a happy and tired puppy when I picked her up. Thank you for the great care you provided for my Bella. You were great and I will be happy to call on you again next time I come into town. ?”

About: For the past 9 years, I have been a dedicated dog owner, providing a loving home filled with care, affection, and attention. My experience includes participating in a variety of dog training classes, such as obedience, agility, and dock diving. Through these experiences, I’ve learned that every dog has a unique personality and responds differently to people, requiring patience, understanding, and tailored care. Currently available anytime after 5:30pm Monday through Friday… and every weekend. I will keep my schedule as up to date as possible so you never fall without care. Security is top of mind for your home and mine. Making sure they know wherever they are is a safe space for playing and fun.

About: Hi I'm Gina! Caring for animals has always come naturally to me. l've spent my entire life taking care of animals of all types and personalities. Along with 20 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats, I've also cared for exotic pets of all types and sizes from Reptiles, mice, birds and more, to large farm animals 200+ pounds. I've cared for animals of all ages throughout my life, from kittens and puppies, to seniors who need more patience and support. I know how to move slowly when I need to, I know how to make animals feel at home in my space when their person isn't with them. My energy level is adaptable to the energy I get from your pet. Whether your animal wants a peaceful space or a fun getaway I can provide that. What sets me apart is the way I energetically connect with animals. Animals have been drawn to me since I was little. I study animal behavior on the side so I'm able to notice shifts in behavior easily. I am also experienced in training animals and I'm on the path to become a certified trainer. My current schedule and circumstances allow for boarding stays and day care at my house. I will always go the extra mile to be there to you and your animals! Thank you🫶🏻❤️ I respect the unique rhythm of every animal and I follow instructions to a T. Whether it's sticking to feeding routines, cleaning up with care, administering meds, or offering quiet company, I show up fully. My presence is gentle, adaptable, and entertaining; something animals tend to trust quickly. I have 6 dogs who are in a sectioned off part of the house and I have a big yard and a nice neighborhood to take pets outside on walks. I don't have a fence but I am extremely careful about it. I am able to handle animals three times my weight and I have never and would never let anything happen to your precious pet! I take pride in having a safe space for all animals in my care!

About: Hi! I provide attentive, full-time care from my home, which means your pet will never be left alone for long periods. Because I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to give consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection. What sets me apart is the level of attention and structure I provide. I don’t just “watch” pets, I actively engage with them. Whether that means helping reinforce puppy training (crate training, basic commands, potty routines), sticking closely to a senior dog’s medication or mobility needs, or giving anxious pets extra patience and reassurance, I tailor care to each pet’s personality. I do have a yard for outdoor time and fresh air. Since it isn’t fenced, all outdoor time is supervised and safely managed to ensure your pet’s security at all times. I’m comfortable caring for: • Puppies who need structure and frequent potty breaks • Senior pets who require a slower pace or medication • High-energy dogs who need active play and stimulation • Shy or anxious pets who benefit from a calm, consistent environment You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease while you’re away and for your pet to feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m home full-time. This allows me to build my day around the pets in my care rather than fitting them in between long absences. Mornings typically begin with feeding, potty breaks or litter box cleaning, and some one-on-one attention. Throughout the day, I provide regular outdoor breaks (fully supervised), playtime, enrichment, and plenty of affection. Because I’m home, I can easily maintain your pet’s normal feeding schedule and routine. In the evenings, pets continue to receive attention and companionship so they feel settled and comfortable. My schedule allows me to provide consistent supervision and structure every day of the week. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on maintaining a calm, structured, and safe environment. Because I’m home full-time, pets receive consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, crate preferences, exercise needs, and sleep habits. I understand that consistency helps pets feel secure, especially in a new environment. I have a yard for outdoor time and fresh air. Since it isn’t fenced, all outside time is closely supervised to ensure safety. Pets are never left unattended outdoors. In a client’s home, I respect your space and your pet’s established routine. I prioritize feeding schedules, clean water, potty breaks or litter box care, enrichment, and one-on-one attention. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and comfortable. My goal in any setting is to create a low-stress, attentive experience where pets feel secure and cared for.
