“Let me start by saying I have two very senior rescues who both definitely have their quirks and needs. I was so nervous to leave Patch and Lilah during our vacation, because I had never left them since adopting them about a year ago. Tonie was INCREDIBLE! She has a vast knowledge of dogs and their needs. She sent me pictures of her outside playing with them, laying on the couch with them, etc. I will definitely hire Tonie again to watch the dogs for future vacations. She really truly cares about the pets she watches, that shows.”

About: I have taken care of animals almost as soon as I could walk! Growing up in rural Indiana, my family always had dogs, cats, fish, rabbits, frogs, and even 1 turtle! We'd also help out our neighbor with their Goats and Horses from time to time! I've always had a love for animals which was further strengthened through my 16 years of Zoo Camp at the Fort Wayne Children Zoo! I was a camper for 12 years and a Volunteer Worker for 4! 2 of those years, I was able to train some of the miniature goats! My day to day is fairly flexible as I work remotely at a World Wide Solar Distribution Company! As, long as I can have my laptop and phone on me, I am solid! I like learning about the pets first from the owners, they are going to be the best source of information and taking notes will help keep things organized and straight!

About: I've had pets my whole life, I cannot remember a time where we didn't have animals in the home. From dogs and cats, to small animals and some reptiles! I also have experience working with a local pet store, which has given me wonderful insight on how to care better for each and every animal! I am a college student at Purdue University Fort Wayne, I am taking only a few summer classes and looking for some part-time work in the meantime. I miss my pets back home deeply, and think this is a great opportunity for me to help out others while also getting my furry cuddles in! I am a college student so I cannot offer services in my own home. But, I would take great care of your home while attending to your pets needs!
About: I have taken a wide variety of dogs from a Chihuahua to a German shepherd. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, give medications and play with their dogs. I have also stayed overnight servers different times. This has given a wide variety of experience with different cares and types of dogs. I am currently looking for part time summer jobs. I am fairly flexible and could work a variety of days and hours. I am able to pick up jobs at a short notice. I have a two weeks I would not be able to work but am free the rest of the summer. I am not currently in an apartment that would not suite dogs. I am comfortable and have experience with pet care in the home. I would be able to stay or night or visit throughout the day. I can walk, play and crate dogs if needed.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats! I have a car so I can drive as much as needed and I am responsible AND dependable. I am very flexible with time and days, multiple times a day if needed!

About: We have a home where I have cared for and given a loving family to dogs and cats for years. We believe in a safe and playful environment for all animals upbringing. I only work part time and also work from home so I am able to pretty much dedicate all my attention to the animals when they need it. I have a fenced yard in my home where I can keep the pups stimulated with play time occasionally. If I have other dogs I'll make sure they get along but if need be separated. I mostly wfh and am trying to accommodate busy people by making last minute bookings so I'm pretty much available whenever it is convenient for you. In my home, I make sure to provide plenty of love and attention to all pets in my care. This includes feeding them on a regular schedule, providing access to fresh water, and giving them opportunities for exercise and play. I also make sure to keep the living space clean and comfortable for them. When providing services like house visits or house sitting, I follow the same routine as in my own home and also follow any specific instructions or guidelines provided by the pet's owner. If the pet is staying with me for an extended period of time, like during a boarding service, I also make sure to take them on regular walks and provide them with mental stimulation through activities. As mentioned, I have a fenced yard and able to put them on a playpen for their safety and comfort if necessary.
