“Christina was amazing!! Our little Charlie has had a tough few months since he lost his sister. It’s been quite an adjustment for him and when we would leave him, he would be so sad all the time. Christina did a drop in with him, and when we came home, he was a happy boy. She communicated very well with us, and when he met her for the first time he fell in love. I totally recommend her!!”
“Tracy is the best! We are new to the area and he was kind of enough to stop by before the scheduled visit to say hello and to meet the dogs. They absolutely loved him and his communication was great!”
“This is the second time I’ve booked with Lisa, I’m so thankful she could watch over my pets while I was out of town. She’s such a lifesaver! I’ll be using her again I’m sure!”
“Brooklyn is awesome. Takes great care of the house and me importantly Edmund, my dog. He now like for her in the guest room! Hahaha. I'd say he's happy with her service as well.”
“Natalie is 5 Stars amazing! We came home to 3 tiny pups who were wore out from the fun and love Natalie brings with her. I felt she listened to what I had to say to make me feel better even though this chick knows her stuff!!! Our dogs loved her and I think disappointed when they saw it was us coming home and not her!!”
“Barbara was doing recurrent drop in visits for both of my dogs 2x a week for a few months and she went above and beyond to ensure that both of my dogs were cared for. Not only did she fulfill their basic needs, but she also went the extra mile to engage in some playtime. Barbara was communicative and punctual! I highly recommend her services!”
“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. :-)”
“Samantha was such a great help for our cats! She went the extra mile by spending time with them after feeding them and checking water and litterbox. We absolutely would recommend Samantha!!”
About: My pets are family, and I’ll treat yours the same. I’ve shared my home with cats and dogs for years—currently an 8-year-old poodle and a 9-year-old maine coon cat. I’m experienced with giving daily medication, patient with seniors and puppies, and always gentle and kind. I’ve done lots of training with my own dog and have cared for friends’ and family’s pets many times. I’m responsible, flexible, and treat every animal with the same care I’d want for my own. My schedule is currently open and flexible, so I can easily fit pet care into my day and am happy to work around your pet's routine. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most at ease. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, medication, or just companionship, I approach every visit with patience and care. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and focused on keeping your pet safe, happy, and well-loved while you're away.
“Mckenna did a great job when I needed someone last minute. She updated me on Nala & how she was doing. If the timing needed to be adjusted, she accommodated accordingly. Couldn't recommend Mckenna enough.”
“Heather did drop in visits with my pups, she spent time playing ball and making sure they had ample outside time. I would highly recommend Heather for your next sitter.”
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, 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! 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.
“Katy is amazing! The dogs live their best lives when Katy comes to visit. They get walks and pets. They are always so much happier when we come home and Katy has been there than when we pick them up from a kennel.”
About: I work full time as a nurse and I want to use my 11+ years of dog owner experience to make your pets feel as at home as possible and give peace of mind to owners that need to be away. I don’t mind doing anything extra your pets need to make them as comfortable as possible. I work full time Monday through Thursday. I’ll be available after 6pm weekdays and any time Friday-Sunday. I’m ok with late night drop ins as well. I currently live with my fiancé with no pets or kids. We have a lead in our back yard that is lined with trees and shrubbery to the back and isolated from the culdesac/neighbirhood.

Inverness Lakes pet parents share their Rover experiences
Hailey made me so comfortable leaving my cat for the first time. She shared her knowledge with cats, was eager to meet my cat during her initial visit, and was happy to send picture and updates while I was away. Would definitely use her again to take care of my cat.
