About: I know how hard it is to leave your beloved fur baby and I want you and your pet to be happy, knowing they're in good hands. I am patient, gentle and affectionate with animals and want them to have a great experience whenever I am with them. I love feeding animals and giving them treats, but I am respectful of the client's wishes and will strictly follow all feeding instructions. I am physically in shape and able to walk/jog with your dog and go on long walks (I also live near the Pufferbelly trail). I will play tug, fetch or whatever game your dog enjoys. I am willing to take your dog on car rides and to the Huntertown dog park upon client request. I have a golden retriever that loves to play and go for walks, so if you want some socialization for your dog, I can also bring him along. My dog will only come by request of the client. I do have 2 cats in my home, so I can only board dogs who are cat (and dog) friendly. Otherwise, I am more than happy to come to your home and care for your dog(s).

About: At Williamson Animal Care and Control I volunteered walking dogs. I also received significant training in dog behavior and dog walking. After retiring from my career, I started my pet sitting and dog walking career. I took care of a rescued Great Pyrenees multiple times during the week and frequently overnight trips for over two years. I recently moved back to the Fort Wayne area from Franklin, TN. Three of my previous dog clients have shown interest in having me come back to stay with their dogs when they’re out of town for more than a couple days. Pet sitting and dog walking are my primary responsibilities along with taking care of my two cats. I have a very flexible and available schedule. I take pride and making sure that the client’s home is as good if not better when I entered. I will walk the dog, feed or treat, make sure the water bowl is full and also if appropriate snuggles.

About: I’ve had both dogs and cats for over 10 years, and animals have always been a part of my life! We currently have a sweet 4-year-old cat who we absolutely adore. Caring for animals is second nature to me, and I’ll treat your pet with the same love and attention I give my own. I am a stay at home mom and I homeschool our 7 year old! She will be with me on walks and drop in visit! I have a flexible schedule to walk your dog or drop in to check on your dog or cat! I have a cat and we are mindful and take precautions so he doesn’t get outside. He was a bit of an escape artist, we were told when we adopted him. I’m a responsible, experienced pet caregiver offering drop-ins and walks with a calm, nurturing approach. My well-behaved 7-year-old will be with me, and we’re both gentle, respectful, and great with animals. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority, and you can expect clear communication and dependable care.

About: I have a natural way with animals, especially when it comes to training and understanding their needs. My dog is well-trained, not just in basic commands but also in manners and adventure-readiness, making our hikes and walks smooth and enjoyable. I’ve also mastered the balance of caring for both an energetic dog and two independent cats, ensuring each of them gets the attention and care they need. My ability to read animal behavior and create a structured yet loving environment sets me apart, making me not just a pet owner, but a true companion to my furry family. Every morning before 2 I am more than available to do drop ins other than Sundays. I do in fact work a full time job that I go into at 3. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I follow their routine closely, including feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, and any medical needs. For exercise, I provide walks, playtime, and mental stimulation with toys or training games. I also respect house rules, whether it’s furniture boundaries or specific care instructions. Most importantly, I give plenty of attention, whether that’s belly rubs, cuddle time, or just being present to ensure they feel at ease while their owner is away.

I take pride in doing what I do best whilst making sure every expectation you have of me is met.

About: I have been caring for the pets of my friends and family for over 5 years, and worked for a pet boarding facility for over a year. I’m a college student studying to be a veterinarian who wants to gain more experience working with pets. I have also completed the dog handler academy online training course for my last job!

About: I’ve been a pet owner my whole life. I have 3 dogs and 2 cats that I love! Any time I have the opportunity to care for an animal is a time I am grateful for! I love to take walks with my pups, play games with my cats, and snuggle with all of the above! I work from home with a flexible schedule. I have animals in my home so I am not open to caring for other pets at my residence. But I have a lot of availability and willingness to care for your pet at your home or do dog walks. I have experience crating my pets, taking walks on leashes, and play time in a fenced yard. I can adapt to your pet needs and follow all necessary safety protocols.

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.

About: I’m married and half 6 children 3 human and 3 dogs. I enjoy all dogs of every shape, size, and attitude. I love taking my dogs out doors to play. I work in a small Lutheran school running the lunch program. As my children are growing up I have more free time and I would like to find something I enjoy that gets me outdoors. I’ve always had a love for dogs and would love more but 3 is enough for my size of home on a daily basis. We have a big backyard! I do not have a fence our dogs are trained to stay within the property lines. I do have several sizes of collars and leashes for walks around the neighborhood or just in the yard. I also have several crates and dog beds if they are requested.
