“Azure accepted my booking at the last minute. I am so happy I found her as she is located really close to me and she was phenomenal with Bella. She was so kind and caring. She also gave me updates as to how Bella was doing - that was special for me. I love that Bella was at a home rather than a kennel. I will defineitely be using her again. Thank you Azure!”

“We got lots of pictures showing just how relaxed and comfortable our dog was while we were gone. He came back home happy and healthy. Thanks for taking care of him for us!”

“I'm so glad we found Karisa and her family. We were looking for someone to take care of our dog, Trooper, while we were out of town. We boarded him with Karisa and everything was great. We received messages all week long with pictures, and we could tell Trooper had a great time. We will definitely plan on boarding Trooper with Karisa in the future.”

“This was our first time using Rover and I'm so glad we chose Jennifer to watch our Golden Retriever. Our dog stayed 8 nights, and we were sent photos and daily updates. Not once did I feel worried about her well-being. I can tell our dog enjoyed her stay, and I'm not convinced she's glad to be back home! We will most definitely use Jennifer again in the future, and will recommend her to others.”

“Very nice and very sweet! My dogs are pretty anxious but they were more than fine with her! Heard they got a lot of cuddles and play time which shows with how tired they are at home! Appreciate how much my dogs were loved !”

“Mindi's gentle spirit was a perfect fit for Ozzy. He was very happy when picked up and seemed to enjoy his walks and time with Mindi. She kept in touch by sending pictures of Ozzy and asked questions about how best to care for him. I will gladly reach out to Mindi again the next time we need someone to watch Ozzy.”

“Alexa was exactly what I needed to care for my Cat! As a first-time cat owner, I was really concerned of how my cat would respond to separated from me. Alexa immediately recognized her demeanor when I dropped her off and gave me the reassurance that I needed to know she was going to be okay. Alexa sent me photos through out the days we were apart and her bubbly personality made it easier knowing my cat was in the right hands. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”


“Another job well done by Alexis! Wrigley loves to come see her! She even went above and beyond and got our dog her own little toy while we were gone for a week. They take Wrigley on walks and send daily updates. We love that she is loved on and played with while we’re away. Thank you! Highly recommend her!”

“Millie and her family made sure my two cats were comfortable and safe for our week long trip! When I miscalculated how much wet food they needed Millie took care of it and updated me afterwards in her daily check in so I didn’t have to worry at all! When I came to pick up, everything was packed and ready to go and the cats were safely in their carriers — which I know is extremely difficult to do. (Even the vets have trouble doing this!) thank you Millie!”

About: I’ve always loved dogs and genuinely enjoy caring for them! I have experience caring for my own Goldendoodle, Ruger, and understand how important it is for dogs to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’m comfortable with walks, playtime, feeding routines, and giving lots of attention and affection. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow each dog’s individual routine and needs. I currently work night shifts, which gives me plenty of availability during the day for walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I’m home during the day and can be flexible with drop-offs, pick-ups, and care routines. I live in an apartment with several walking trails right in my backyard, so there are plenty of opportunities for walks, fresh air, and exploring! In my home, I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable space with plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I’m happy to follow their normal feeding, bathroom, and exercise routines so they feel right at home.
About: To connect with your pet(s) on a super fun level and to really show them just how much we really do love and appreciate them! During the day 11 am to 2 pm At night 6 pm to 10 pm I would walk your pet around if needed but if the weather is appropriate. Being able to follow detailed instructions. I am consistent with the time I suppose to allow them to run and playing with them outside. I enjoy discovering new traits about pets.

“If you need someone trustworthy to watch your pet book with Safaa! Not only did she keep me updated with pictures and texts throughout the night, but she was also very communicative beforehand to make sure I was comfortable. She also gifted my cat some toys to go home with! So sweet highly recommend this pet sitter! Will be booking again in the future:)”

“I definitely recommend Kayla, she took care of my labrador puppy Arya for 4 nights. When I brought Arya she did not walk with her leash because she did not want to and when I went to look for her Kayla had taught her. Kayla take care of her with a lot of love, teach her new things, trained Arya and help her share with other dogs and cats. I am very satisfied and happy to be able to entrust the care of my baby Arya to such a committed person. Arya was really happy and have a great time, Kayla even give her new toys!!”

“Carli was very professional and happily accepted my request to board Winston even while watching several other pups. Was very communicative and provided updated during Winston’s stay!”
About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my ability to provide structured, attentive, and compassionate care that meets both the physical and emotional needs of dogs. I am highly attentive to routines, behavior cues, and individual temperaments, allowing me to create a calm, safe, and consistent environment for each dog in my care. My dog-sitting skills extend beyond basic supervision to include proper exercise, reinforcement of positive behavior, and close observation to ensure overall well-being. I approach every responsibility with professionalism, reliability, and clear communication, giving pet owners confidence and peace of mind that their dogs are receiving exceptional, dependable care in their absence I have a flexible schedule and am available most of the time, allowing me to provide reliable and attentive care. While I am generally free during the week, I may occasionally have other commitments on weekends, though I communicate availability clearly in advance to ensure proper planning. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every aspect of the care I provide. My upstairs apartment is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, with close supervision at all times to ensure pets remain safe and comfortable. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, dietary needs, and any special instructions provided, and I maintain a consistent and structured environment to reduce stress. My community offers designated areas for walking dogs, allowing for regular exercise in a controlled and safe setting. Through attentive care, clear communication, and respect for both the pet and the owner’s expectations, I strive to create a secure, trusting, and welcoming home where pets feel comfortable and well cared for

“Alexis is very professional and kind. Her communication is great. She puts in great effort to ensure safety, well being and happiness of animals. You can tell this is her passion. Felt very comfortable leaving my animal there and will rebook when needed.”

“Rose did a wonderful job watching our Ember! She stayed with her for 5 days while we were out of town, sent lots of pictures, and kept me updated. When we met prior to Ember’s stay, I could see her love of dogs in her manner of communicating with Ember. Rose strikes me as one of those people that just has a special connection and understanding of dogs that goes beyond what normal people see. She also has dogs of her own so I was happy Ember had some friends to play with! I will happily entrust her to watch Ember again for our future travels. Thank you so much Rose! ?”
About: I have had a dog in my life for as long as I can remember. I have a passion for making them feel like they’re loved and just like family. I’m currently working part time as a at-home caregiver and so I have a fairly open schedule and work love to make some money in other ways and what would be better than spending my free time with dogs! I do not have a fenced in yard, but I have a car to commute to dog parks or a closed in yard. I also have a 6 year old Golden doodle who loves a play date!!
About: I’ve had the joy of volunteering with the Humane Society in my hometown of Dayton, Ohio for many years, as well as pet-sitting for many neighbors and friends! I’m new to Fort Wayne and looking forward to meeting the pets of my new community! I work a flexible schedule as a music therapist. Depending on the day of the week, I work from home part time, leaving lots of time to spend with your pets! I have a large, first-floor, single entrance/exit walkout apartment with direct access to large open green spaces, and live nearby several dog parks. Getting outside with your pets is a priority of mine!
“Jessica was a fantastic sitter for Moose! I would absolutely recommend her again and again to care for your pups. She kept me updated regularly with photos and videos, and treated Moose like he was one of her own. Sounds like they may even be getting a Great Dane themselves! Thank you again, Jessica and family!”

Natalie is such a great care giver to our dog! He loves going to see her and her daughter, and is always smiling in the picture updates she sends. Sometimes his anxiety gets high and he eats less, but Natalie is so good at giving him love and time and ensures he gets at least a meal or snack in. I can always trust that my boy is in good hands with her. Thank you for the wonderful care you give- and for giving daily updates! We appreciate you!

Tara’s home was a large environment with plenty of backyard conducive to dog boarding. Her children took to our pups lovingly and playfully. We left them feeling comfortable about their care. Our return flight from San Diego was delayed 2+ hrs due to Extreme Heat; this made it literally impossible to make our connection home & meant an extra day before finally got home. Tara adjusted to that no problem, adding another night’s charges while we waited for them to get home from their son’s ballgame. We recvd one photo from Tara while gone and a couple brief “they are doing fine” without details we would like to have heard more. We gave her a full additional day’s charges in cash as a tip when we picked our pups up. We can recommend her to others and would utilize her again as needed.

Mindy and Carter were absolutely lovely! Macy and Olive had the best time staying with them and loved getting to play and spend time in their beautiful, fenced in backyard. From the moment we arrived, I felt completely comfortable and knew my girls were in great hands. Their home is beautiful, welcoming, and such a great environment for dogs. Having just moved to the area, I’m so happy and relieved to have found people I can trust with Macy and Olive. They clearly felt right at home, and I know they already can’t wait to go back! I would absolutely recommend Mindy and Carter to anyone looking for wonderful, trustworthy sitters
Alexis is amazing. She is the one and only dog sitter I book with on here! My dog is pretty quirky and she has always done so well with him. She’s a really cool person, goes with the flow, and always keeps me updated whenever she can! The booking price has gone up since I first started booking with her, but it’s worth it knowing my dog is with someone I can trust.

Melissa took our two pups on super short notice and they had the best time. She sent many updates with pictures which weren’t necessary but absolutely appreciated for anxiety ridden moms like me. Will definitely be using her again for future trips and am thankful for how well she took care of our dogs.
