“Tracy walked my dogs daily for three years and even when he was in the hospital he got someone to cover for him. He took extra special care of my boys and I dread moving to a new city and trying to find someone that comes even close to his level of caring and expertise. Hes the best there is in the area. Try him and you'll never go anywhere else.”
“Wes was wonderful, Harriet was very happy when I got home.”
“We liked Christina immediately at the "Meet & Greet" and our dogs also liked her during the pet visits and walks. She was great at sending us pictures and communicating with us about our pets. She was very punctual for the visit times and was able to get our dogs to do most of their business outside - which is no easy feat! We highly recommend Christina to anyone looking for a reliable dog-sitter/walker and look forward to using her services again.”
“Did great with my dog and was very good with communication throughout the process. Never booked anything on rover before and she made it super easy”
“Great personality very friendly, very knowledgeable about dogs”
“She’s always pleasant and always smiling and she even ask about me that great when you have someone here for your dog, but they are also interested in how you feel that’s great.”
About: I have taken a wide variety of dogs from a Chihuahua to a German shepherd. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, give medications and play with their dogs. I have also stayed overnight servers different times. This has given a wide variety of experience with different cares and types of dogs. I am currently looking for part time summer jobs. I am fairly flexible and could work a variety of days and hours. I am able to pick up jobs at a short notice. I have a two weeks I would not be able to work but am free the rest of the summer. I am not currently in an apartment that would not suite dogs. I am comfortable and have experience with pet care in the home. I would be able to stay or night or visit throughout the day. I can walk, play and crate dogs if needed.
About: Hi! I have had 2 family dogs and I currently own 2 cats. I have worked at a dog kennel and done a couple internships at vets. I can work with any type of animal of any age. I plan to have a full time job but can check in on your babies as needed. I am also willing to stay overnight if necessary. I can drive to client’s homes. I can feed, medicate, walk, scoop litter boxes, and anything else needed. I prefer to go to client’s homes rather than take them home.
“Ruthie loves Stephanie more than she loves me I think. She is so good with her and Ruthie loves her walks. ❤️”
About: Animals are a big part of my life! I have 2 dogs, a cat, a bunny, 2 bearded dragons, a corn snake, 2 hermit crabs, 8 praying mantises, 2 tarantulas, 2 jumping spiders, and 3 madagascar hissing roaches. 😁 I have had dogs in my life since I was a child. I have been a dog groomer and continue to look for ways to continue to work with animals. I groom my own dog still, and have groomed some friends' dogs as well. I take animal care seriously and will do so with your furbabies. I will treat them the way I would want others to treat MY furbabies. I understand how hard it can be to trust someone else with your babies.. I am willing and able to care for other pets if you have something other than dogs or cats. Your pets are my #1 priority when you trust me with their care. I work from home on my own schedule so I have plenty of time for your fur babies. I am happy to spend time with them. I will never let your babies out of my sight and if going for walks, they will ALWAYS be on a leash for safety purposes.
About: Through and through Hoosier here. I am originally from Decatur, IN but relocated to the beautiful '07 of Fort Wayne! I went to college at IUFW for Medical Imaging and completed my Bachelor's degree. I am pursuing this opportunity to explore and familiarize myself more with the community - as well as all the amazing pups! I grew up with 3 dogs and a cat, so I am well versed in the fur baby community! I currently have a full time job Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday so I am looking to pick up some pet care work on Tuesdays and the weekends! I have a fenced in back yard as well and a large basement suited for caring for animals in an overnight manner. I do have a cat that lives in the house who will be on the second story.
“Lydia is very kind, considerate, and prompt! She lets you know what's going on well a head of time if things need to be changed in the schedule. 10/10 Will definitely use again! Oh, and my Trudy likes her too 🤩😂”
“Thank you Mackenzie! Definitely recommend her as a walker!”
About: I grew up with always at least six dogs in our care and two cats. I also have had experience rehabbing orphaned puppies and kittens, as well as some wildlife. I used to be a senior foster for hospice care, so I’m used to going above and beyond for comfort and high needs for animals! No request is too much for the good of the animals :) Because I’m a teacher, I’m especially looking for summer availability right now, as I’m typically wide open during this period. During the school year, I have varied availability. I have two friendly dogs and four friendly cats. My backyard is fenced, and my neighborhood is wonderful for walking with many winding sidewalks and beautiful trees.
About: I have been pet sitting and caring for my own pets and family/friends pets for about 8 years now. I can walk, feed, bathe, administer medication, and play with your furry friends of all kinds. I am a school teacher on summer break so my daily/weekly routine is very open to care for your pets. I am free almost every day! If coming to your house to take care of your pets, I will make sure to keep your furry friend feeling as safe and comfortable as possible. Whether through use of a crate, harness, leash, etc, I will make sure they are well cared for.
“Sadie was very good with our 2 dogs. She walked them 2 days during wedding festivities. I would definitely have her care for my dogs again!”
About: I've grown up surrounded by pets—from energetic pups to laid-back cats—and caring for animals has always been second nature. For the past three years, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for my family during vacations, making sure their pets are safe, happy, and loved. I bring that same level of care and attention to every pet I meet! Working third shift gives me a flexible daytime schedule, which means I’m wide awake and available when most people are at work. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon playtime, or midday check-ins, I have the time and energy to give your pet the attention they deserve. I provide care from my apartment, creating a safe and cozy environment for your pet. I live in a very quiet pet friendly neighborhood. I'm also physically strong, which allows me to confidently handle larger or high-energy dogs while keeping them safe and happy
About: I currently have two cats of my own who are my pride and joy! Grew up surrounded by animals including dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, and more! I work full time but with a very flexible schedule. I have plenty of extra time to take dogs on walks or play with cats! I currently have two cats in my house who have been around many dogs and cats since they were adopted! My #1 priority is to make sure all animals feel happy and safe in their space!

He always sends updates on how she’s doing and asks questions if he’s not sure what Winnie needs. He ensures she get her walks in and gives her plenty of snuggles while we are away. I highly recommend.”
