About: I've been around dogs ever since I was a child. I rarely come across a dog that I don't like or that doesn't like me! I currently do dog sitting and walking for friends and family and would love to expand my services to others looking for high quality dog care. I work part-time so I usually have a very flexible schedule with a lot of availability. Mornings through afternoons are usually the best times . I meet the needs of the dog owner when watching dogs in a client's home. I understand that dogs can have varying needs/schedules. I feel comfortable giving dogs necessary medicines and meeting any special needs. I can go the extra mile to make sure your dog(s) are happy and safe. I've even saved a dog that fell in a pool once!

“Zoe is an exceptional pet caregiver, displaying unwavering responsibility and genuine love for animals. With Zoe, your pets are in the best hands possible. Highly recommended!”

“I would most definitely recommend Keegan he has watched my pets multiple times for multiple periods of time and is very good with animals and always does his best and they are always happy and well taken care of!”

“I don't leave my dogs with just anyone. I am that pet parent that inspects facilities and leaves a list for the sitters. With that said, you can not find a more caring and trustworthy petsitter for your fur babies! I trust Jessica and Holly 100%. Highly recommend!”

“I have known Liv since birth and the most distinctive trait about her is her love for animals! When Liv started to discover her passion for animals it sparked a fire. My mom would pick me up from her house and ask, “How was the zoo?” jokingly of course! Liv has had and still has pets ranging from hermit crabs, lizards, dogs, foster kitty litters, cats, and an aspire to get a hedgehog! Liv has a love for any animal whether it is a goose crossing the street or her own personal cats💗 She calls all animals her friends and cares for each with every inch of her heart. She is truly the only friend I would trust to babysit my animals and she will go above and beyond!”

“Daisha did excellent with the dogs and was great to work with!”

“Sarah is a wonderfully caring and kind person who is super conscientious and responsible! I completely trust her with any of our pets because I know she will give them the very best care. She has a lot of experience with caring for pets and also a lot of work experience that proves how responsible and dependable she is. She worked with us at our cat cafe and was absolutely terrific at customer service, caring for the cats, cleaning up after them, advertising for us, and doing any task with very little direction. She was a lifesaver and huge support to our small business. The cats loved her too! She was a key holding manager and we would have her come back without hesitation. She has always been very easy to communicate with, and has such a great work ethic and so much positivity! Sarah is a remarkably trustworthy and hardworking person. I highly recommend her!”

“Jena was wonderful. She kept us updated on our 3 dogs. Unfortunately, all of them lived. Was hoping for a casualty or two, but no such luck. All kidding aside Jena was great. Would highly recommend her to anyone in the Columbia City area.”

About: I have cared for a wide range of animals, which is what I think makes the difference. Everything between toy poodles to kitties to giant huskies. I can train puppies to sit, stay, as well as other basic things. I am especially good with friendly cats and friendly medium sized dogs. I am very gentle and loving with any breed of animal, very patient and am willing to adapt to a long list of extra needs. I have a flexible schedule. I work afternoons and nights Mondays-Fridays and am also available Sunday nights. I run other self employment situations such as Grubhub and Doordash but I work those schedules around each other. I have a cat myself, I care for pets the same way I would care for my own. Ensure that she/he has access to balance. I give them a good amount of attention. I attend to consent, I ensure I can see signs of permission from an animal before I handle the animal. I would attend to any of the listed desires and needs that the owner requested and I always go above and beyond to ensure the animal is happy.

About: I have been working in animal welfare for about 5 years. My background comes from the Animal Shelter world. While working for 2 local shelters as a Kennel Attendant than a Animal Care Specialist and now working at a pet hospital as a Client Service Representative. In this new roll, I've found myself missing the responsibility of caring for animals in need. Between long work hours, extended weekends, a new puppy or kitten, or a pet that just needs that extra time outside or quality time, that is where I'd come in! I'd like to offer the community daily in-house check in visits and or walking sessions for up to 2x daily in 46725 area or 1x daily in the surrounding areas! Tasks included in the check in visits consist of bathroom breaks, administering medications if needed, feeding/providing treats, fresh water given, quality time spend inside and outside (whether permitted), disposal of wastes. For 60 minute check in visits a short walk is included! During my time working at the animal shelters I had the opportunity to engage and learn about the essential care of kitten to senior stages of life in cats, as well as puppies to senior dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, small reptiles and so much more you probably wouldn't think would show up at a shelter! I also became a foster for kittens and a puppy for a short period, which was a pleasure of doing. #fosteringsaveslives I was lucky enough to be able to learn so much about feline and canine behavior and how to incorporate that into my daily care of these pets and seeing how much of a difference it makes by understanding their body language. l am also familiar with the uses of pharmaceutics, as well as administrating orally and by injection. I am Fear Free Shelter Certified, as well as a Fear Free Certified Professional. Meaning, I make sure all my animal handling and movements are fear and stress free to the best of my knowledge. I hope to be able to take care for your furry family member soon! 🐾 Availability: Tuesday's, Saturday's, Sunday's I currently work full time, making my availability limited during the week. I would like to build enough daily clientele, that way I can make pet care a primarily part time focus. I'm currently not offering pet boarding/day care services in my home due to having the responsibility of 5 fur babies of my own. While caring for your pet in your home, I will treat your furry family member(s), your home, and your belongings with the upmost respect. By following any sort of restrictions, being mindful of your time, understanding the needs of each individual pet and knowing your needs as an owner and requirements/standards you expect from a pet sitter.

About: I usually fall in love with pets when I meet them and treat them as I would treat my own. I have had cats and dogs all my life and enjoy being around them more than some people in my life.

About: I have always had animals in my life all shapes, and sizes all species and breeds. I have had dogs, cats, birds, squirrels, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, fish, gerbils, racoons I have helped take care of horses, and cows and chickens. I have watched and cared for so many animals in my life and I love every min of it. I am currently a kennel supervisor, doggy daycare attendant, and a petcare specialist at a pet boarding facility in fort wayne. I truly love my job and all our clients that i deal with everyday. I couldn't be happier than I am right now working with animals. I am also a wildlife rehabilitator I have always dreamt of doing what I'm doing right now. Taking care of animals isn't what I do it's who I am. I work with and around animals everyday either here at home with my 5 dogs, 3 cats, 3 coons, and 2 squirrels or at Work. If at your home I will care for them the only way I know how to like they were my own. I will strive to make them the happiest furbabies while your away. I can't wait to be able to spoil your furbaby till you return home.

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was little. My passion of pets led me to be a dog groomer! I’m looking to forward to meeting your pets! I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to drop in during my time off to check on or walk your pets! My passion and love for pets along with their safety is always my number one priority. I want to help you keep you fur babies happy and healthy

About: I have lived with a mix of both small and large dogs my entire life. I grew up with a Labrador retriever, pugs, Jack Russell terrier, chihuahuas, and a Basenji. I studied Animal Sciences in my undergrad so I have a lot of hands on experience from there. Your dog will get lots of walks, cuddles, and play time. I currently have a dog named Bernadette. She is a border collie/boxer/heeler mix so she has a ton of energy! She does well with all ages of dogs and honestly either wants to play or cuddle. I welcome all ages and breeds! Please reach out with any questions you may have. I know how important it is to find a reliable sitter. I’m here to make you and your fur babies feel as comfortable as possible! I’m currently only offering in home visits and dog walking. I prefer to only do drop in visits twice a day, but if you’re in close proximity I can drop in three times/day. However you take care of your animals in your home, I will do the same. During drop in visits I love to give your pets lots of attention/make sure they get in some play time if they enjoy that.

“Abby is one of the kindest people you will ever have the privilege to meet. She is hard working, dedicated to whatever task she is given, and is always on time. Abby has watched our dog and her brother numerous times, as well as other dogs for other family members. She celebrated their birthday and even put them in party hats and made them feel special. Abby has stayed with the dogs overnight, fed them, walked them, played with them, etc. We have recommended Abby to all of our family and friends, who have then recommended her to their family and friends. We would recommend Abby to anyone with a pet!”
