House Sitting in Columbia City

“Katie is great with our dogs! She is very kind and sweet. She is very quick to respond and send us picture and video updates. She worked great with our two crazy dogs who had to be kept separated due to behavior issues and she adapted to the situation very well. She has now watched our dogs twice & we will certainly ask her in the future! Highly recommend Katie!”

About: I’ve taken care of my aunt’s dog since I was little and then briefly lived with one until he passed. I was in charge of walking and feeding them and both dogs absolutely adored me. Now as I’ve grown up, my favorite animals are still dogs but I unfortunately don’t have any and I have the cutest little kitties. Hoping to get my serotonin boost from hanging out with your pups instead! I’m currently studying so I’m available for onboarding any day you need me to! I’m free to watch over them and make sure their needs are met since I am home all day typically. My yard isn’t fenced fully but it is mostly and your fur baby will have all the space to run around. I will be home all day to keep them company and make sure they’re happy.

“After our flight was canceled, Bree helped us out and watched our dog an additional night after watching him for over a week. We appreciate having a reliable sitter!!”

Carissa C.

“Stephanie was great to work with! Always gave plenty of updates throughout the day about the dogs and sent pictures of them as well! This was the longest time we have left someone with our pets and I am so thankful that Stephanie was the one watching them. She treated them as her own and our house was left just as we left it! Will definitely use Stephanie again and recommend her for any services!”

“Highly recommend. Brianna stayed at our place for over a week and took care of everyone (2 large dogs, 2 cats, fish, houseplants, and the garden). She was easy to communicate with, very responsive, and it was such a relief to have her housesit while we were out of the country. I will book with her again in the future!”

Casey W.

“We absolutely loved having Madeline watch our two pups while we were on vacation! I am guilty of leaving too many instructions sometimes, and she made me feel at ease before and during our time away. She also cleaned the house, washed all linens, and left the house in perfect shape. We’d be honored to have her as a sitter again!”

“Emma is the best and a true angel! We have three standard poodles who are our 4 legged kids and we have never left them in someone’s care outside of family. Poodles are very family oriented and can be wary of strangers. After meeting Emma, we were amazed at how quickly the girls took to Emma as if they had known her for a lifetime. She came to our home and provided outstanding care. Emma provided us periodic updates during the day and even sent pictures showing us how well things were going. Emma is a true blessing to our family and I know we will reach out to her again! 💕🐾”

“Abbigail was amazing! She gave my fur babies so much love and attention! She sent frequent updates with pictures and videos. I’m beyond happy with her services! If you’re looking for a great sitter for your furry friends, she’s definitely the girl for you!”

About: I have plenty of hands-on cat and dog care experience. Last year, I lived with a sweet cat and a high-energy golden retriever, and often cared for them while my roommate was away for clinicals. I handled their daily care, playtime, and attention, so I know how to keep pets happy, healthy, and well-loved. I’m in my final year of pharmacy school and currently have a break before my next clinical rotation. That means I’m free all day during the week and most weekends until October, giving me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pet and keep them happy, active, and loved. I don’t currently have a home with a yard suitable for a pet, as I’ll be moving around for school this year. That’s actually why I love helping care for other people’s animals! I focus on giving pets attention, playtime, and companionship, and I’m happy to follow their routines closely, whether it’s feeding or walks. Living with a golden retriever with high separation anxiety taught me a lot about the importance of just being present and sticking to the routine established by the owner.

“She’s super kind and was more than helpful. She went out of her way to make my dogs extra happy, comfortable, and loved.”

Natasha S.

“Tricia is absolutely wonderful with our pets! We haven't ever seen them take to to strangers as well s they did her. Her laugh while playing with the dogs was truly infectious. We've already booked her again for our next vacation.”

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.

About: My name is Cal Jones, since spring of 2023 I have been house sitting and pet sitting. I am proud to be serving locally Columbia City, Whitley County, Indiana and surrounding communities. Note if your fur family grows, please be sure to schedule a meet and greet so I can meet the new family member.

This allows me to to meet the owner and pet.

“Andrea did an amazing job with my dog & 3 cats! My dog has separation anxiety & he seemed so calm after his initial excitement when we got home. She stayed in our home for the weekend & sent great photos while we were gone. Will definitely be using her again when going out of town. ????”

About: Howdy! My name is Jordan, I'm a reliable pet sitter who understands that every dog has their own personality and pace when it comes to bonds. While I’ve mostly cared for family pets, I’ve yet to meet a dog I couldn’t establish companionship with. Whether that means giving them space to warm up or engaging with them in ways they’re comfortable with. I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! I'm juggling multiple freelancing gigs to create a stable income. My project-based work gives me a flexible schedule, though I usually spend Saturdays visiting friends for a couple hours. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for in their familiar environment. I respect each pet’s unique personality and needs, whether that means giving them space to warm up or engaging them in play. Many dogs deserve more activity than they typically get, so I’m always happy to include playtime, whether it’s a game of fetch, light tug-of-war, or just some extra attention and interaction. When we’re not playing, I’m just as happy to relax and offer cuddles for dogs who enjoy affection. No matter their energy level, I aim to make their time with me feel fun, safe, and stress-free.

About: I have been involved in several volunteer groups for pets and rescue organizations. I’m sure I could help your peace of mind when you need. I’m currently working for Rover full time. I’m looking to make this a career path and I’m trying to earn more than happiness from Rover. My apartment has a private entrance and I have parks and trails to take them near me that are secure. I have multiple options for boarding.

About: I am a lover of all animals and have been rescuing and fostering as well as caring for friends, family and my own pets since childhood. I take pride in keeping your pets needs met and cleanliness of their environment and belongings as well as medication needs. We are a big animal family that consists of dogs, cats, a tortoise, and a bird. We also rescue and foster through a local shelter. I understand that leaving your fur baby can be difficult, but I want to assure you that I have a fenced yard and friendly dogs that can keep your pet company. If needed, I can easily crate your pet and I will make sure to follow your instructions if you would like me to.
