About: I’ve taken care of my aunt’s dog since I was little and then briefly lived with one until he passed. I was in charge of walking and feeding them and both dogs absolutely adored me. Now as I’ve grown up, my favorite animals are still dogs but I unfortunately don’t have any and I have the cutest little kitties. Hoping to get my serotonin boost from hanging out with your pups instead! I’m currently studying so I’m available for onboarding any day you need me to! I’m free to watch over them and make sure their needs are met since I am home all day typically. My yard isn’t fenced fully but it is mostly and your fur baby will have all the space to run around. I will be home all day to keep them company and make sure they’re happy.

Stephanie was great to work with! Always gave plenty of updates throughout the day about the dogs and sent pictures of them as well! This was the longest time we have left someone with our pets and I am so thankful that Stephanie was the one watching them. She treated them as her own and our house was left just as we left it! Will definitely use Stephanie again and recommend her for any services!

Emma is the best and a true angel! We have three standard poodles who are our 4 legged kids and we have never left them in someone’s care outside of family. Poodles are very family oriented and can be wary of strangers. After meeting Emma, we were amazed at how quickly the girls took to Emma as if they had known her for a lifetime. She came to our home and provided outstanding care. Emma provided us periodic updates during the day and even sent pictures showing us how well things were going. Emma is a true blessing to our family and I know we will reach out to her again! 💕🐾

She was easy to communicate with, very responsive, and it was such a relief to have her housesit while we were out of the country. I will book with her again in the future!

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.

About: We have a home where I have cared for and given a loving family to dogs and cats for years. We believe in a safe and playful environment for all animals upbringing. I only work part time and also work from home so I am able to pretty much dedicate all my attention to the animals when they need it. I have a fenced yard in my home where I can keep the pups stimulated with play time occasionally. If I have other dogs I'll make sure they get along but if need be separated. I mostly wfh and am trying to accommodate busy people by making last minute bookings so I'm pretty much available whenever it is convenient for you. In my home, I make sure to provide plenty of love and attention to all pets in my care. This includes feeding them on a regular schedule, providing access to fresh water, and giving them opportunities for exercise and play. I also make sure to keep the living space clean and comfortable for them. When providing services like house visits or house sitting, I follow the same routine as in my own home and also follow any specific instructions or guidelines provided by the pet's owner. If the pet is staying with me for an extended period of time, like during a boarding service, I also make sure to take them on regular walks and provide them with mental stimulation through activities. As mentioned, I have a fenced yard and able to put them on a playpen for their safety and comfort if necessary.

I have had Ana pet sit both my dog Luna and my cat Nala while away on vacation. She did wonderful jobs with them! Would keep me updated on how they are doing and making sure that they received the best care possible. She wouldn’t just treat them like a side job but as a part of her family which I loved!! She is kind and patient with them never getting mad when they would misbehave at times. Overall Ana is a great trustworthy person!!!

Salehin is a hardworking and creative person with a great heart. He loves animals and taking care of them. When he said he wants to take care of dogs I definitely wanted to support his creative idea. Salehin has a great backyard that is latched with tall fences. It is a beautiful area where animals can romp and play. He would be great at taking care of the animals.

About: I've grown up around dogs and animals my whole life. I understand the importance of walking, feeding, and bathing them so they are healthy and happy. I’m currently working a part time job while also being in graduate school at Huntington University to become an Occupational Therapist. I’ve been on rover for a few years and have met some amazing clients! I’m available most of the time just send me a message and we can discuss more about your pets needs! I usually care for pets at the clients home. I work with client to understand the pet's daily routine, such as feeding times, exercise needs, medications, and special requirements. Sticking to a daily routine will help ensure the pet's comfort and well-being.

About: I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember! I have been pet sitting for friends and family for the past 2 years. Sometimes just for the weekend and other times for some vacation. I walk, feed, bathe, play and sometimes give medicine to their pets. I am willing to stay at the home if needed and would love to be apart of your pets world❤️ I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday at a nursing home. My hours are 8am-4:30pm, but I am able to leave during lunch and leave early if need be. I am free Saturday nights after 10pm if needed and Sundays after 4:30pm! I will watch your pet(s) in your home. I want your pet(s) to be as comfortable as possible! I have crated animals before and would also be comfortable with staying with your pet(s)

Kyla is quite possibly the biggest animal lover of all time. She loves all animals and tries to make them all lover her. She's watched my 3 dogs for years when we are out of town-- and one of our dogs who hates everyone has become accepting of Kyla. She goes above and beyond in making sure you know how your pets are doing...check ins and pics galore. 10/10 recommend!

About: I have been involved in several volunteer groups for pets and rescue organizations. I’m sure I could help your peace of mind when you need. I’m currently working for Rover full time. I’m looking to make this a career path and I’m trying to earn more than happiness from Rover. My apartment has a private entrance and I have parks and trails to take them near me that are secure. I have multiple options for boarding.
