Dog Walkers in Leo, IN

“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.”

About: PSA: I will be on vacation for my anniversary September 4th-7th and will be back to work the 8th! Proper care of animals is my passion, priority and lifestyle. I offer boarding, daycare, drop-in visits, dog walking & basic grooming in Auburn, Indiana and nearby surrounding areas. I take pride in giving pets a cozy and safe environment, ensuring a stress-free time for both the pets and their owners. I am a full time pet sitter, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! I do occasionally need leave my home for an hour or so, for drop-in visits or occasional other errands. When not supervised I can crate your pup/kitty or put them in a separate room. I do request owners provide a crate in case its needed. On a regular day to day basis, I usually let dogs wander the house freely with supervision. They are crated at night and if they cannot be supervised. Dogs get plenty of time outside to run, play and potty daily! I am available weekdays, weekends & most holidays! I keep my calendar updated so please check it out! I am lifelong pet owner and animal lover. I've always surrounded myself with many animals, taking in strays or ones who need rehomed. I have three friendly dogs, many cats, two horses and pet rats of my own. I have experience caring for many different animals ranging from hamsters to horses! There aint no pup too big or small; too young or old, I am honored to care for them all. I am happy to clean litterboxes, pick up your pups droppings in your yard and clean other animal enclosures. I offer basic grooming such as baths, brushing & nail trimming which can be added on to drop-in, boarding or daycare bookings for a $10 fee. I can pick up and drop off dogs for daycare or boarding for a $20 fee. I have experience giving oral medication, applying ointments and treatments and caring for pets recovering from surgery. I am always eager to expand my knowledge with animals when an opportunity arises! My husband and I live in a clean house outside town with a large 1 acre yard, for plenty of run and play! We're on a quiet country road, 7 minutes from the nearest vet. I do have a fenced in play area outside for the dogs and can also walk by leash. Client dogs will be brought to the fenced in area by leash to ensure safety. I do request owners make sure their pets have been treated for fleas the month of their booking. This prevents your pet from bringing them here but also protects them from the possibility of picking them up outside during their stay and bringing them home. I regularly keep my home and pets treated as well, but every family doing their part keeps their pets, other client pets and my pets and home safe. Thank you! ❤️ If you have any other questions or concerns please reach out to me, I'd be happy to speak with you! I look forward to hearing from you and building a long term relationship with you and your furry friend! I am pet sitting full time, so I can provide your pet with plenty of attention, play time and the love & care you expect. I have a large yard on a quiet country road and 3 dogs and plenty of cats to keep your pet company, along with my watchful eye of course. I can easily crate your pet when needed so long as a crate or carrier is provided. Animals will always be introduced slowly, with barrier (fence or baby gate) to ensure safe introductions. Dogs are never fed near eachother. I care deeply for animals and will intentionally make sure your pet is as safe and happy as physically possible! I live 7 minutes away from the nearest vet. Pets will be separated from others during meal times.

“She was fantastic with our Winston. He took right to her and couldn't wait to see her everyday. She has a special gift with animals and it helped us out alot with our little guy. Very dependable and trustworthy pet sitter. I would recommend her to everyone. She was a 10 in our book.”

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.

“Deanna has skills. When our reactive rescue got out of the car, Deanna kept her hands relaxed and at her sides. She continued to talk with us and did not look at our girl. This is exactly how to meet an anxious dog! And our Portia responded by walking right up to Deanna and sniffing her. Portia walked with Rick this walkie. But Portia did walk between Deanna and him. She would normally be as far from anyone not us, as she could get! Most excellent! Our Mr. Baloo has never met a stranger and he was happy to make her acquaintance! We have already rebooked! Thanks Deanna!”

About: Experienced with senior dogs, and I understand patience and gentleness they require. I’m attentive to their routine and health needs. I will treat them like family. I do not work and am available to sit for your dogs or they can come to my home. I will treat them like family. I do not have any other animals and could give my full attention to your dog. I have a peaceful environment at home and welcome the company.

About: I take care of my brothers dogs and friends dogs while they’re out of town. I also have a cat and a Doberman that want love and attention constantly. I love all animals and I haven’t met one that doesn’t love me! I recently started my own business and I’m still building my clientele, so I have random days/times of the day that I’m free to spend walking dogs! I love animals and exercise Looking forward to walking pets and dropping by for check ins if you need me to! I love dogs and cats and have tons of experience with both

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.

About: I've worked with dogs, cats, and other animals since middle school. I've done short- and long-term sitting for dogs varying from a weekend with a mixed breed rescue to a month with a purebred Australian shepherd. I owned an elderly Maltese for three years, until he crossed the rainbow bridge. Currently I do have a limit of dogs of maximum 35 pounds. I am prepared and willing to work with training routines. I studied cats extensively in seventh grade in my attempt to persuade my parents into owning one. (It worked.) As either a cat owner or sitter, I've been working with cats ever since. I have a beautiful little black and white princess named Jane, with an affinity for burrowing in blankets and stealing pens, and a wild child named Lizzie who has never met a stranger. I offer dog and cat walks, animal feeding, water changes, litter box changes, playtime, and brushing. I'm open to pets outside the usual; anything except spiders. My availability is very flexible right now. Send me a message to get a request started! Currently I do gig work and have a very open and flexible schedule. Most Sundays I spend out of town, but feel free to message to discuss custom scheduling. Safety and care in a pet's home is reliant first and foremost on learning the family's routines and location of important items. Every family in every home has a system and routines in place; following those is the smoothest way to keep the animals happy and safe. In my home, I care for two young adult cats I own, as well as foster kittens. Right now, I have a group of four kittens to care for until they reach their goal weight for their spay/neuter surgeries. I do practice robust hygiene routines to ensure no potential illness is transmitted between the fosters and my cats.

About: i have been a pet sitter for friends and family for many years. I have owned several dogs and cats, and I currently have four kitties as my sweet dog passed away a few years ago. I also care for/feed five feral/community cats that I worked with Humane FW to trap, spay/neuter and vaccinate, and I supply them with heated cat houses. I have experience with elderly animals as well as special needs animals with food restrictions and allergies. I currently work part-time from home and make my own hours, so I have plenty of time to spend with your pet(s)! My schedule is so flexible that I am available for drop-in visits, walks, playtime or overnight stays most days of the week. I have almost 30 years of experience in management, and I will care for your home and pets as if they are mine. I love to play with animals and walk dogs, and I also enjoy caring for them. Whether it's an elderly animal or one with special needs, I have a variety of experience and can care for your fur baby.

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! I am currently a college student who is able to take the time between and after my classes to care for pets. This also leaves my weekends completely open to focus on pet care! As someone who has worked for a boarding facility, i’ve done all kinds of pet care for all kinds of pets. I am available and experienced in anything from feeding and walking to bathing and cleaning up pet messes!

“Jessica has been a godsend to me and Buddy. She always takes excellent care of him. Her dependability is appreciated when I can’t be there to walk and care for him myself”

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 a 15 year old medium sized Lab-Pit mix that I’ve cared for since she was almost a year old. I’ve also helped care for dogs of all sizes for friends and family, no size too big or too small! With years of experience giving medications, I’m skilled in administering pills, whether with treats or a more direct approach. I can read a dog’s body language to tell if they’re happy and social or need some space. I have lots of free time, I’m available all day, weekends and weekdays! I’m only unavailable during 5pm as that’s my own pets dinner time, and medication time for those who need them I am very familiar with crating, my own dog is crate trained. If need be, I can safely crate a dog if they need to settle down

About: I have been pet sitting for neighbors, family, friends, and referrals for 10 years. I have experience with dogs of all breeds, cats, and reptiles. I also have experience with deaf, blind, and elderly dogs. I’m currently working PRN as a nurse so I have plenty of time to hang out with your babies! I’m available from early morning to late evening on most days :) The majority of my pet sitting experience has involved staying in other people’s homes to care for their fur babies while they are on vacation.

About: My friends always say I’m the biggest dog lover they know! I’m super flexible with days and hours, and I get along great with all kinds of dogs. I’ve attended multiple dog training sessions with my own pup, so I’m comfortable handling different personalities and behaviors. I’d love nothing more than to shower your dog with love and attention! It depends on the week but I am mostly free when needed! The days that work best for me are mon-Friday but I am free most weekends. In my home I’m sure to take my dogs out every 2 hours. I play with my dog a ton and always take him to the dog park or on long walks to get all his energy out. I am very affectionate with dogs and love to spend time with them.
