Brooklyn was able to help me out last minute and was great. She paid a lot of attention to my dogs and they really liked her. She communicated well and was fully invested in making sure my dogs were well-taken care of while I was gone.

Alissa was perfect for our Bailey! We had a really bad experience with Rover and was hesitant to try them again. She renewed our faith! Bailey was well taken care of. We will definitely use her again!

Cal was absolutely amazing! He watched our two dogs for two days over Thanksgiving and treated them like they were his own. He sent frequent updates, photos, and check-ins so we always knew how they were doing, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our pups were clearly comfortable, happy, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking with Cal again. Highly recommend!

About: From growing up with pets all around me, I’ve gained valuable experience in caring for our furry friends. I understand that every animal has differing needs, and I am dedicated to providing personalized care. Whether it’s keeping up with an energetic pup, offering gentle attention to a senior pet, or simply being a comforting presence, I ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m currently working a part-time job so I will have plenty of time to spend with your furry friends! While my shifts differ every day, I do not have a specific availability but I am more than comfortable with working around my part-time jobs hours. On days my calendar says I’m unavailable, I may be able to provide services as well depending on the times I am working at my other job! I am 100% always available any time on Fridays! I have two cats and two dogs myself so I feel more than comfortable with my ability to ensure a safe environment for all animals. When it comes to any drop-in visits, I will treat your home and your pet with the utmost respect and kindness.

About: Hi! I provide attentive, full-time care from my home, which means your pet will never be left alone for long periods. Because I’m home throughout the day, I’m able to give consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection. What sets me apart is the level of attention and structure I provide. I don’t just “watch” pets, I actively engage with them. Whether that means helping reinforce puppy training (crate training, basic commands, potty routines), sticking closely to a senior dog’s medication or mobility needs, or giving anxious pets extra patience and reassurance, I tailor care to each pet’s personality. I do have a yard for outdoor time and fresh air. Since it isn’t fenced, all outdoor time is supervised and safely managed to ensure your pet’s security at all times. I’m comfortable caring for: • Puppies who need structure and frequent potty breaks • Senior pets who require a slower pace or medication • High-energy dogs who need active play and stimulation • Shy or anxious pets who benefit from a calm, consistent environment You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease while you’re away and for your pet to feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m home full-time. This allows me to build my day around the pets in my care rather than fitting them in between long absences. Mornings typically begin with feeding, potty breaks or litter box cleaning, and some one-on-one attention. Throughout the day, I provide regular outdoor breaks (fully supervised), playtime, enrichment, and plenty of affection. Because I’m home, I can easily maintain your pet’s normal feeding schedule and routine. In the evenings, pets continue to receive attention and companionship so they feel settled and comfortable. My schedule allows me to provide consistent supervision and structure every day of the week. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on maintaining a calm, structured, and safe environment. Because I’m home full-time, pets receive consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, crate preferences, exercise needs, and sleep habits. I understand that consistency helps pets feel secure, especially in a new environment. I have a yard for outdoor time and fresh air. Since it isn’t fenced, all outside time is closely supervised to ensure safety. Pets are never left unattended outdoors. In a client’s home, I respect your space and your pet’s established routine. I prioritize feeding schedules, clean water, potty breaks or litter box care, enrichment, and one-on-one attention. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and comfortable. My goal in any setting is to create a low-stress, attentive experience where pets feel secure and cared for.

About: Animals have been a passion of mine all of my life. I have owned and cared for many species including fish, reptiles, birds, hamsters, dogs and cats. My love for animals brought me to work as a veterinary assistant and later to attend the Tom Rose School for Professional Dog Trainers. I have now been training and competing with my own dogs for 20 years and am also a professional dog trainer. As a trainer, I have earned the credentials to be an AKC Canine Good Citizen/S.T.A.R. Puppy/ Farm Dog/ Trick dog evaluator. With my veterinary assistant and dog training experience I have gained the knowledge to properly handle and care for many beloved pets. I can assure you that I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I am looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I am available most days. Mondays and Wednesdays I am unavailable between 9:00AM-5:00PM. I have plenty of time to provide services for you and your pets. If boarding in my home- you can use my crates or bring your own. I have a nice, fenced play yard that I use to let my dogs and visiting dogs run and play (I do not let my own dogs play with visiting dogs). I also have a built-in dog bathtub that I can used to give your dog a nice bath (for an added fee) before they return home upon request. When I visit a home- I follow given instructions and keep the area clean. My goal is for you to not even notice I was there. When I visit to walk your pet-I follow instructions and keep the area clean. I remain aware and not distracted. This ensures your pet remains safe and engaged during the walk. If your dog is more fearful-I try to make the walk as stress-free as possible.

About: Growing up we always had dogs! From German shepherds to doodles, I’ve had experience in caring for a variety of breeds. I have a 3 month old Golden Retriever puppy, who I’ve taught general commands to, crate trained, potty trained, and manners. I’d love to help you in caring for your fur babies! I offer flexible drop-off and pick-up times, transportation to and from my home if needed. If approved by owner, visits to the park on leashes will be offered. My husband and I recently moved to the Fort Wayne area. I am currently not working and have wide open availability! I can be flexible to accommodate existing routines and schedules for pet care and or house sitting. I have 3 acres of open land for dogs to run. All outside visits whether it’s play time or potty breaks are supervised. Animals are kept on a routine or schedule, as I think this helps reinforce good behavior. My 3 month old Golden Retriever puppy is crate trained and sleeps in his crate overnight. I have experienced in dog training as well.

About: I was born with the yearn to care for animals built into my core. The day I turned 16 I got my first job in a kennel, caring for dogs boarded there on the weekends and after school. Once I turned 18 I began volunteering at my local shelter, fostering sick and injured animals, bottle feeding kittens, training puppies, and finally making the difference I dreamed of growing up. I was eventually hired and employed by the shelter and trained in many different elements. Feeding, grooming, administrating medications, behavior classes, training, and general overall daily care. I have been fear free certified twice. I was since promoted to a veterinary assistant in 2022 where I’ve thrived working in the medical side of animal care the last few years. There I have gained many lifesaving skills as long as senior care skills to add to my belt. I have most recently had a baby so I’m looking to continue caring for animals in a way that better fits my current life. I’d also love nothing more than to raise my child teaching her to show animals compassion and care! 💜 I am currently staying home with my daughter so as long as you don’t mind she tags along, my availability is wide open! (She is an infant so remains in her carrier) Your pets will be treated like family whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine. I absolutely PROMISE you they will feel loved and be given all the pets and attention they desire! (Treats as well, if permitted 😉)
