5. Taylor C.

“Taylor was awesome! I started a new job and had to travel to Indianapolis everyday from Fort Wayne for training at our corporate office. She took care of my best friend, Max. He is my dog, and means the world to me. He was in great hands with Taylor. She is the best! I will use her for any dog sitting going forward, because my sales schedule is very busy. I highly recommend her to everyone that needs a high quality pet sitter for their animals. Thanks again, Taylor! 😊”

10. Nicole W.
“Nicole will go above and beyond for your animals! She started taking care of my farm as we were moving to another state. Only a few weeks later when we needed to move the animals she volunteered to help us move our 5 horses, 2 pot bellied pigs, chickens and our two barn cats ALL in her trailer! The best part is she made sure everything was in good working order on the trailer and truck because it was a six plus hour trip. I am forever grateful for her and how she loved my guys like her own!!”

“Our first visit with Sumer was great! She checked in on our two dogs while we were away for the day and sent us pictures! We will definitely be using her again.”


12. Jocelyn A.
About: I have my own dog who I raised since he was 8 weeks. He’s highly energetic and has his own quirks. I definitely can handle more “difficult” or high energy dogs. I’m available for walks or drop ins as needed! Prices can be negotiable depending on needs! I work full time so weekdays mainly available in the evenings primarily but available all day on weekends. Special availability during holidays due to being off of work. I do not have a fenced in yard so I have always had to be careful with my dog in regards to the increased risk of him running off. I am highly cautious and vigilant of what they may potentially get into or any signs of discomfort as well. I did training classes with my dog and have basic training knowledge.


13. Kalia S.
“Kalia has a tender heart and really cares for your fur babies. I always knew my dog was well taken care of when I returned home. She would send me pictures of my dog while on walks and I really enjoyed being part of the care she provided. It helped me to know that my dog was being taken care of while I was away. I recommend Kalia. She’s an intent listener and reassures you there is nothing to worry about.”

19. Sally C.
About: I have experience handling pets of all sizes, including horses, chickens, goats, birds and donkeys. I have volunteered and worked with all sizes of house pets including Guinea pigs, rabbits and hamsters. Large dogs are no problem for me. I’m retired so am flexible to help working families, families on vacations or families on extended vacations. I have reliable transportation as well and am very much an outdoor person. I have my own pets so am experienced cleaning up pet accidents, regularly cleaning small animal crates, feeding, bathing, exercising and walking any size animal.

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.
