“Heather was kind as was her family. Our dog had a great time with Heather and another house guest dog. He slept like a baby when he got home as he was worn out from all the fun!”


2. Joscelyn P.

6. Sara G.

“My boxer pup, Jax stayed with Sara for a week and I can’t be more happier that I chose her. Sara was attentive, accommodating and most of all so loving to Jax. I could not recommend anyone better…..bonus that she has pups of her own so she is very aware of the pups needs. Thank you Sara!”

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, 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! 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.


8. Azure S.

“Azure was great with our pup. She sent pictures to update us on how he was doing, which really helped let us know our furry family member was doing great in a new place. I’m confident she knows what she’s doing, and we will definitely have her babysit again!”


9. Jill P.
“Jill is very reliable, trustworthy and accommodating to our busy schedule. Our dog absolutely adores Jill and she always keeps me updated on walks by sending pictures. Most importantly, we know Indy is in very safe hands and it puts our minds at ease knowing she is being so well looked after. Highly recommend!”


10. Zoe D.

“Zoe was fantastic with my dog! She has very well trained dogs that would get along with any dog. I would highly recommend and would book her again!!”


11. Anne T.

“Anne was amazing! Milly had a fun sleepover with her! She has a great set up and loves dogs! Very organized, great communication and sent lots of pictures which we ?”


12. Nan D.

“Mrs Nan and her family were the perfect choice for my pup's first pet sitter. My rogue can be stand offish with new people since she was adopted right before COVID-19 start. Mrs. Nan was patient with her, loved on my girl as much as rogue allowed, encouraged her to eat when she was depressed, and checked on her through out the day when Rogue decided to hide in her crate instead of playing with Nate. I received multiple pictures and updates, and Mrs Nan was quick to answer questions on how things were going. I highly recommend using Mrs Nan, I plan to use her again.”


13. Karisa E.

“Karisa was fantastic! Our dog is older (15) and can get a little nervous, so a caring, home environment is what we were looking for. There was such peace of mind leaving our pet with Karisa. She even sent pictures so we could see how cozy Tilly was in their home and she was sent home with a “goodie bag” of homemade doggie treats! We highly recommend!!!”


14. Natalie S.

“I had a trip I had my usual sitter unable to watch my Great Dane with very short notice. Natalie responded quickly and eased my worries about finding someone to watch my girl. When I arrived she was welcoming and Lucy warmed up to her quickly. I got pictures during the stay showing Lucy was doing well and having a good time. I will definitely use Natalie again for boarding services!”


15. Greg F.


“Greg is AWESOME! Greg spent a lot of time with Arlo. Greg has a large yard with a pool that is dog friendly! Looking forward to the next time.”


16. Agnatha W.

“Violet always has the best time when she goes to Agnathas home! She comes back exhausted, from all the play time she gets in while there! Agnatha loves to spoil Violet as well, she snuggles her and lets her on the sofa! I was worried Violet wouldn’t want to come back home with us. It is a nice relief knowing our pup is getting the best care while we are away!”


17. Elioenia P.

“Loni did a good job providing picture updates, taking my dog on walks, and was very flexible with drop off/pick up times during my busy weekend. Always felt my dog was in good hands during his weekend with Loni!”


18. Stephanie M.

“Ozzie had the best care at Stephanie’s. I was afraid he wouldn’t want to come home with me! She treated him just like her own and I feel very lucky to have had found her. I will definitely try to rebook next time we travel.”


19. Rachel M.

“Our dog Lexi had a great week with Rachel and her family. Lexi adapted very well and was very comfortable. Rachel provided updates and pictures. Very impressed with our first time and will definitely be returning. Would recommend to friends and family!”


20. Kristen O.


“Kristen and her home are inviting and wonderful! We felt so comfortable leaving our pup with her, and can tell she took expert care of her and gave her lots of love. If you’re looking for peace of mind with where your pet stays, we highly recommend Kristen!”
