Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Copper Hill

“Natalie is kind and reliable - and our pup loves her!! We’re so grateful to have her helping us through our pup’s first year. Highly recommended.”

“I loved that Heather came to meet Farah and I. I could tell right away she was caring and very patient. Our cat sitter couldn't come to check in on Farah while we were on vacation due to unexpected health decline. Heather was willing to with very little notice. We were gone for 13 days and had Heather do a drop in for 11 days. Farah requires eye cleaning just about every day and is super picky about how clean her litter box is. She also hates getting her eyes cleaned and Heather did such a great job with her eye care. She made sure she had clean water each day too. Heather did the best job!! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl!!”

“Evan is great! I am so glad I found her when we got Sam, our new puppy that needed let out, fed and played with during the day. She's been on time and will take the dogs out in our larger back yard to sniff and play when the weather is nice. Sam and Charlotte have been cared for so well. :-)”

“Wonderful care of the pups.”

About: I've have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all pets and I am very flexible and willing to learn how to best take care of your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your pets, I will dedicate my time to loving them. I've had 5 energetic dogs throughout my life. My family has had everything from small to really big. We had a papillon, papillon mix, pomeranian, pitbull/boxer mix, and a pitbull/german shepherd mix. My dogs were always the larger ones and I can handle walking very large dogs easily since my dogs weren't the best on the leash. Currently we have two dogs but I learned how to take care of them when they were babies, to when they were having old age problems. So, I can work with any range of age. I also have a cat in college now that I love taking care of. I am a student-athlete currently, but I always have time in the evenings to dedicate to taking care of a pet. I am available for drop-ins on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. When you are home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable! I am a student-athlete at IU Bloomington, so my schedule is a little packed but I miss my pets and I also love to walk, so this sounded like a great option. I am free on Saturday after morning practice, all day Sunday, mostly all day Tuesday, and all day Thursday. :) I would care for my client's pets like they were my own. I can handle giving them constant attention, feeding, walking, watering, and everything else. I am 6'0 ft tall, so I can handle big dogs if necessary.

About: I have taken care of animals my entire life. My family has involved me in the care of all of our family pets, including dogs of multiple sizes and multiple cats. I also have experience taking care of dogs and cats together. Additionally, I have experience caring for aquatic tanks and animals. I have owned tanks with betta fish for 5 years. I currently have two rescue cats of my own and am caring for my family’s beloved senior dog, an English Springer Spaniel. I aim to provide excellent pet care and friendly service to all pet families. I am a recent college graduate looking to establish pet sitting clients while I work on personal writing projects. I have very open availability at this time and am willing to work with clients to establish regular times for care. I will take care of your animals according to your specifications. I have supplies including extra leashes and waste bags if needed for care. I can either walk your animal right outside your home or transport them to my neighborhood for walks if needed.

“Wes has done a fantastic job with drop-in visits for my goldendoodle. She's still in her puppy phase, and he makes time for walks and playing in the backyard. He has always been on-time and communicates well after each visit. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for dog care!”

“Tracy was great to work with. He responded quickly and accomodated a few changes we had to make to his visits while we were out of town. Our pups were well taken care of.”

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 (August-May), 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 or holidays! 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: I stand out from other sitters because I bring a rare combination of veterinary training, hands‑on clinical experience, and a lifetime of caring for animals of all sizes. I’m currently a veterinary nursing student at Marian University Plymouth, graduating in August 2026, which means I approach every pet with a strong understanding of animal health, behavior, and safety. Alongside my education, I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant in both large and small animal medicine, including at Crossroads Food Animals Veterinary Service, LLC and during my externship at the Emergency Veterinary Care Center in Summer 2025. These roles have given me extensive experience with senior pets, animals with medical needs, medication administration, safe animals handling and recognizing early signs of illness or stress — skills that most sitters don’t have. Beyond my clinical background, animals have been a central part of my life from the very beginning. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and I’m comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to shy or anxious pets. I also have a fountain in farm work which created a strong sense of responsibility and dedication. Your pets aren’t just watched — they’re cared for by someone who truly understands them. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I’m currently completing my externships for my veterinary nursing program, which gives me a structured but flexible schedule. I work Monday through Thursday, with an hour break at 1 PM, so depending on your location I can stop by for mid‑day potty breaks during the week. I’m also able to provide a consistent, work‑style schedule, meaning I can visit in the mornings before work and be available again in the evenings for feeding, walks, or check‑ins. My weekends are even more open, allowing plenty of time for longer visits or extended care. Because of my profession and lifestyle, pet sitting fits seamlessly into my routine, and I make sure each pet gets reliable, attentive care throughout the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and consistent environment that keeps pets comfortable. I like too follow the pet’s normal routines as closely as possible — from feeding and medication schedules to preferred walking routes and bedtime habits — because familiar patterns help reduce stress. I treat every home with the same respect I’d want for my own. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, enrichment, and reassurance so they feel relaxed even when their family is away. My goal is to provide care that feels seamless, trustworthy, and grounded in both compassion and professional experience.

“McKenna was awesome. We are to town just 2 weeks ago. It was so nice to find someone so loving for our 2 dogs and cat so we could join family at the lake today! Definitely will want McKenna for next time. Thank you!!”

“Anabela was at my house over the holidays and dropped in on my 3 cats twice a day. This was my first experience with Anabela and she was AMAZING!! I have OCD so I am very detailed about everything. She followed my instructions to a tee! She communicated effectively and provided great pictures. My cats loved her and so do I. I highly recommend Anabela for your pets.”

Tracey S.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a child and can’t imagine my life without pets. I’ve got friends and neighbors who rely on me to visit, feed, play and stay for overnights or vacations with their pets. Would love to help others with their pet needs! I’m currently open for clients and their needs whenever needed. I have an open schedule and am ready to work with anyone on helping with their pets. Whether drop in visits or staying over at friends/neighbors houses I follow any guidelines given by the pet owners. I’m very trustworthy and do what I can to ensure the pets stay safe under my care.

“Amara was wonderful with my dog for a drop in! We have a very excitable 80lb dog and she was so great with her! She was communicative, professional, and I loved all the updates and photos of my pup from her visit! We will absolutely be using Amara again 🐾”

Taylor M.

“Samantha was really great with our cat, took wonderful care of her with food and snuggles. We appreciated the photos that Samantha sent us and and how detailed the report was about how the drop-in went. Will definitely reach out again when we go away again!”

Elizabeth B.

“Paris was an absolute wonder! We were gone for two weeks and Paris had excellent communication the whole time and sent such lovely pictures. It was awesome to set up a meeting before we left and Paris was able to let us know of things to set out that we hadn’t even thought of. All in all, an excellent person to watch your fur babies in any capacity.”

“I would no We would have her Olivia back always! Thank you for your time and kindness! Everything was perfect! Thank you 😊 "Duesel clan"”

About: I grew up with a dog and I currently have two dogs of my own and I am fostering a dog until he’s healthy again! In the summer I love to be outside and get some walks in! I work full time Monday - Friday. I can always be available all weekend long! I keep my weekends free and can do some walks on some week nights if needed. I have a privacy fence and I always take dogs on the leash outside, I never want to risk animal safety so they will always put out on a leash inside and taken off leash inside.

“Highly recommend! Upon reading the report card from Tonie, a comment was made from another dog owner, "Wow, you got a good rover." I was so nervous leaving my dogs, especially my ailing senior. When my normal dogsitter cancelled last minute, I was very hesitant having a stranger watch my dogs. Tonie did a great job. I actually prefer her over my other sitters.”

About: I will play with your pups! I am used to caring for yorkies, shelties, and small labs as these were the dogs I was around growing up. I now have 4 Chihuahuas, I love them! They have taught me a lot about separation anxiety and I understand how serious it is. I would love to help your pets get through those long days. I love all dogs, playful, bouncy, and shy. I am used to feeding dogs special foods that they typically eat and am always open to spoiling them the same way you do! My availability varies. I am currently a stay at home mom which allows me to do drop ins or dog walks. Message me with any questions! Thank you for considering me! I'm currently a stay at home mom so doggy day in my home is ideal to give your pup love and attention! I am typically in town during holidays. I spend time playing with them, walking them, and giving them love (or space if that's what they prefer). I will feed your dog, make sure (s)he has water, or give your dog treats and rub their tummy. Whatever you prefer, I can do that!
