Pet care experience

Let’s walk n’ wag!

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!

Jacob was great at communicating and sent photos of my dog without being prompted. He was fine with giving my dog three different kinds of medication. He has a fenced in backyard that my dog enjoyed. We'll be using him again for future out of town trips.

If your pet is not okay with cats I will need to know ahead of time. I own a cat and her scent is scattered throughout the house.
