Dog Walking East Side

“Nervous about leaving our baby in the care of a stranger, I took comfort in reading other people’s reviews so I hope this helps. As a new transplant to Fort Wayne from Brooklyn New York, things are very different. Our 2 year old poodle isn’t use to the new routine or people yet and Tracy was patient, communicative and caring. I felt comfortable letting him into our home and loved getting the photos of our happy - despite Super nervous- pup with his tail up trotting along. Tracy is a game changer for us in our new schedule and I would trust him with our pooch in our home or in his.”

“Wes, does such a great job with our dog. They seem to get along so well, and I feel reassured that Bailey is in good hands during their walks.”

About: I am a loving mother of 2 and I will care for your pets as if they were one of the kids. I have dog sit before and loved it. When I was younger I use to volunteer at the animal shelter with my great-grandma and that's the reason I love animals today. We also adopted a cat a couple of years ago, and we just love him to pieces. We also just adopted a dog that we have previously sat for. Hi! I currently work for Amazon and have a schedule of four 10-hour shifts each week. Outside of work, I have plenty of time to care for and spend with your pets. I have been dog sitting since I was a kid and have always had a love for animals. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your furry family members, and I would treat your pets with the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own! I will make sure each animal has proper care including a clean safe cozy shelter, clean water, regular bathroom breaks, going on walks for at least half an hour, who knows it could be longer, and so much more!

About: I grew up taking care of and pet sitting a half dozen dogs between my own and cousins’ houses. I take pride in treating your pets like family and ensuring a good time is had by all. My schedule is open allowing me to take care of your dogs in your home, mine, or engage in a daily walk schedule, plan etc. I’m happy to oblige to the care of your pets in your home, but generally wouldn’t be boarding, so to say, animals in my own home. I have a vehicle outfitted with a safety net, as well as the experience to know that dogs can surprise you and it’s better safe than sorry. Leashes are constantly held and my attention is not often distracted from your pet while they’re in my care!

About: I am currently a veterinary assistant at a large local animal shelter in fort wayne. I worked mainly in the feline department for a year then moved to the medical sides of things. I want people to rest assured that I will treat their pet as if they were mine I go to school full time and work part time but I will be as flexible and as helpful as I am able to be! I have a spare bedroom if need be, but I will travel as much as I need to, to make sure your best is being cared for!

About: I’m Sarah and I would love to be your pet sitter for your dogs or cats. Since I was a kid I have kept and cared for many animals, including dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents. horses, and frogs! It would be my pleasure to meet and care for your furry friend. On Rover I specialize in trusted at-home overnight care, drop-in visits, and dog walking. Not to mention, I am also an excellent communicator with pet parents while you are away to make sure you are perfectly at ease with the care being given to your fuzzy children. I can currently care for up to 3 dogs per household. Shoot me a message and let’s connect today! Currently, Rover pet care is a top priority. I am also self-employed, but I am able to stay with your pets all day during in-home bookings, unless I step out to run errands or hit the gym. Dog walking means allowing your dog to get the energy out that they need while also receiving the enrichment of being safely outside. For in-home visits your pets will get their breakfast, lunch, and dinner right on time with any needed medication administered just as you instruct. Playtime is a favorite of mine with any animal I care for, just show me their favorite toys! When any questions or concerns arise I do not hesitate to contact the pet parents.

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals, my patience, and my genuine commitment to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I grew up around animals and volunteered for three years at NAWS, a no-kill animal shelter in Mokena, Illinois, where I gained valuable experience caring for animals with different personalities and needs. I also have experience with pet sitting and grooming, and I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s routine, recognizing their individual needs, and providing attentive, compassionate care. I am happy to work with energetic puppies, help reinforce basic training and positive behaviors, and provide gentle, patient care for senior pets who may need extra attention. I take feeding schedules, exercise, medication instructions when applicable, and safety seriously. I also understand how important it is to keep pet parents updated and reassured while they are away. My goal is not simply to watch your pet, but to make sure they feel happy, secure, and cared for, just as they would at home. 🐾 I am flexible and will work around your schedule. I am currently in Winsconsin for the summer and working part time so I am widely available. Currently I am unable to host as I live in a dorm however I am more than happy to walk your dog or petsit !

“Thank you so much!”

About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart. Growing up on a farm, I was surrounded by creatures big and small—everything from conures to bison. From an early age, I learned not just how to care for animals, but how to truly respect them. That foundation deepened over the years into a lifelong appreciation for the bond we share with our animal companions. Adopting my dog Uschi was life-changing—she taught me about unconditional love, loyal companionship, and even nudged me toward a healthier lifestyle. That experience reinforced my commitment to providing pets with the same love and care I give my own. I understand how important it is to feel confident when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. That’s why I prioritize consistency, comfort, and safety. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, respect any dietary needs, and make sure they feel calm and cared for every step of the way. I can’t wait to run, play, and give your sweet baby the love they deserve! I currently work remote at my own pace, so I have full availability any time of day, morning or over night. Complete flexibility to your schedule. My overnight stays are flexible and can be tailored to your pet’s specific needs. I’m happy to take care of small home tasks like bringing in the mail or taking out the trash—just let me know what you'd like. We can also go over feeding schedules, walk routines, and note any areas that are off-limits to ensure everything runs smoothly. I understand that separation anxiety is common, and I approach each visit with patience, empathy, and a calming presence. Your pet’s comfort and emotional well-being are my top priority, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, seen, and cared for in your absence. I’m also very mindful of pet nutrition—no treats or dietary changes will be made without your clear consent. I’m available for a wide range of time frames and am happy to adapt to your pet’s rhythm and routine, providing consistency, comfort, and a little extra love while you're away.

About: I’ve taken care of pets for neighbors since I was about 12 years old. I’ve taken care of all sizes of dogs, cats, and that random goldfish you win at the fair. I am experienced in giving cats injections if that is a service you are in need / looking for, let me know! I’m currently finishing up school with classes one to three days a week. I’ll have plenty of time to give your pet the loving care they need until you can! I care for pets in the safety of their own home to reduce their anxiety. Fortunately for you, I am OCD and will make sure your pet is safe and all instructions are completed as provided.

“Natalie was great with Maximus! He’s very high energy and not the greatest on the leash. She was very patient with him! I will definitely be using Natalie in the future!”

About: I've had a dog since I was roughly 9 and she passed away recently so I'd like to spend some of my love of dogs with your dogs! I currently have 2 cats, Ekko and Demeter. I work a swing shift with a set schedule so I can usually schedule walks in pretty easily! Generally I'm more busy on 1 week at work than the next week so most of my availability is on the short week. I treat your pets with love and care as I treat my own, if this is their time during the day you're at work that they are allowed to go outside then I'll make sure to let them sniff and walk a little extra.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life. Growing up we always had a dog, and we have had dogs of all sizes. I love making dogs happy and letting them run around and enjoy themselves! I’m new to this so please don’t hesitate to give me a shot at helping you out so I can gain some ratings and get myself out there more! I’m a full time student and a father. I go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays but every other day of the week I am available. I am also available during weekends but those days would vary more than the week days. It’s going to be cold out soon, and I don’t mind walking dogs in the cold so you don’t have to! I have two dogs in my home! I let them out multiple times a day, make sure they get fed what they are supposed to be fed when they are supposed to be fed. And I love my dogs and I know everyone else does. I am blessed with the opportunity to have a more open schedule than most, and I want to help! Pet care can be stressful, but it doesn’t need to be.

About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, I’ve learned how to handle all kinds of personalities, ages, and needs. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I’m patient, attentive, and focused on keeping every pet comfortable and happy. I treat every pet like my own, communicate consistently with pet parents, and make sure you always feel confident while you’re away. I currently have full availability and a very flexible schedule. I’m focusing on pet sitting full-time as I get back on my feet. I can easily adjust to your schedule, provide extra care, and be available for last-minute bookings or extended stays. When caring for pets in their own home, I do everything I can to keep them comfortable, safe, and relaxed in their familiar space. I follow your routine closely so your pet’s day stays as normal as possible while you’re away.

About: I've taken care of dogs (and cats) since I was in high school. Friends, family, neighbors, and others have relied on me to feed, walk, play with, and provide medication and other health management to their pets. I also personally care for my own special needs dog who has Addison's Disease. I just completed my first year working as a Speech Language Pathologist in the school system and would like to keep active and earn additional income by helping take care of others' pets over the summer :) I will do what is necessary to provide the best care possible to your pets and follow any directions you have. I will always ask questions for clarification or if I am unsure about what your pet needs. You know what is best for your pet and I want to ensure that I am providing the best care for them possible.

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!
