About: Hello! I am new here at Rover. I’ve had dogs and cats all throughout my life. When I was a kid, I rehabilitated hurt animals that I found outside or on the road-caring is second nature for me. In 2018 I adopted my dog Beauty, a black mastiff whom I had for almost eight years and sadly, she recently passed away. She is missed by many!!! So I am here trying to get my pet fill. I will always provide great care for your pets. I can’t wait to get started and meet your pets! Monday through Thursday I am available 730pm-midnight. I am available Friday and Saturday 9 am until 330 P.M. Sunday I am mostly unavailable. May have some wiggle room in the late morning. While caring for your pet, I will be sure to always keep an eye on them. I am very attentive and follow your instruction and wishes. I respect you as well as your pets needs.

Amara was amazing! Even got my reclusive cat Soeren to come out for treats. Lily, of course, was her usual extroverted self and came out for lovies. So sad we only got to try her services once, but we will definitely recommend her to friends.

About: Don't have the time or energy for an energetic walk during the day? Going away for a little while and need someone to check on your furry family? Worry no more! I provide up to 1 hour walks and check-ins with your dog or cat here in Fort Wayne. You can be assured with me knowing your pet will be safe and happy while you are gone. Let's just schedule a time and place to have a meet and greet so I can get to know you and your companion! Every day after work I make sure to give my animals plenty of love and affection. I currently am available any time after 2pm on any day of the week. Going for a walk can be dangerous if you are not paying well enough attention to cars, people and other dogs, and objects/food on the ground. I am always wary of potential hazards to the dog!

About: I have been doing this since i was about 10 years old. i’ve helped with puppies as young as 6 months and as old as 15 years. i work part time and my hours are 9am-2:30 pm on the weekdays and do not work at all on weekends. i am off during summers so i will have an open schedule from the end of may-beginning of august. I would feel more comfortable if i watched your pet at your home since i live in a tiny apartment, it wouldn’t be the best option especially for dogs. however we do have a pretty nice dog park that i can take them to if i am available for walks

About: Your dogs will be happy and comfortable while you're away! I enjoy ensuring dogs get their energy out and are well groomed so they feel their best. I know the importance of talking to your babies and reading their cues. I wrote a paper in college titled Dog Talk and I tell clients when I enter their home most dogs think I'm a dog. Can schedule a weekly routine or just for holidays or vacations. I'm an early riser and can check on your animals if there's an emergency. I'm open to overnight house sitting just not regularly at this point. Message me the dates and I'll let you know if I'm available. I wake up every morning and let my three dogs out and feed my indoor then the outdoor cats. The dogs come in and expect a treat and they each have a spot in the living room near me. My dogs get fed as well although only one will eat and is obsessed with food. Most mornings it's keeping her away from the cats and their food but I let her lick the dishes. I will ensure your pets safety and health first at foremost at all times and would never leave them longer than you felt they could handle if doing drop by visits.

About: I grew up in a household full of dogs and cats and a turtle! This lifelong exposure taught me that every pet has a unique personality and specific needs. For the past few years, I’ve specialized in in-home pet sitting, offering both daytime visits and overnight stays to ensure your pets feel secure in their own environment. I am particularly experienced with high-energy and reactive pups. My own 'wild' puppy has taught me patience and various positive reinforcement training techniques, so I’m well-equipped to handle strong pullers or dogs who get a bit nervous on walks. Whether it's a calm senior cat or a zoomie-prone puppy, I know how to keep them engaged and safe. As a college student, my schedule is incredibly flexible. I have the ability to step away for midday walks or check-ins, ensuring your pet is never alone for too long. During the summer months, I am out of school and only work a part-time job one day a week. This means I have nearly 24/7 wide-open availability for housesitting, extended stays, and frequent drop-ins to keep your furry (or shelled) friends company! I understand that your home is your sanctuary. I pride myself on being extremely cleanly and respectful of your space. My goal is to leave your home exactly as I found it (if not a little tidier!). Beyond the house, your pet's safety is my #1 priority. I am hyper-vigilant during walks and always adhere to your specific household rules regarding furniture, feeding, and routine. I treat every 'pet child' with the same love, attention, and protection I give my own, so you can have total peace of mind while you're away.

About: Ever since I was around 5 or 6, I always remember being in a home with pets. Whether it was dogs, cats, reptiles, a potbellied pig, and even smaller animals. Older or very young, all of the animals I have had and cared for were very spoiled and given a life well deserved. I love every single animal and couldn't imagine a life without them. I believe that all animals deserve proper care, and a loving home. Any animal is loved as if they were my own. I am currently working at Kroger part time, three days a week. I am going to school full time as well. The days I work at Kroger are Monday, Wednesday, and Friday- 5 a.m.- 9 a.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays are the days I attend school and go all day. I plan on fitting in pet care after working at my job, and possibly weekends. I care for pets in my home or a client's home by greeting them and making sure they have everything they need. This includes making sure they are comfortable enough, with plenty of food and water. I also make sure they get taken outside or have access to use the bathroom often or whenever needed. Activities, such as playing, walks, or tricks is something I make sure to fit in as well.

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors’ dogs since I was a kid. I have worked with anxious older dogs, puppies and high energy breeds. I am also comfortable giving medication. I’m a runner who loves the outdoors so a walk or run with your dogs sounds like a great summer day. I’m currently working part time so I will have lots of time to play with your pets! I’m a runner and love everything outside so a walk or run with your dog sounds like a great way to spend my afternoons! I don’t have any other pets at home. I don’t have a fenced in yard but can keep them on a long leash if that is necessary. I only work for a few hours a day so your dog will spend most of it’s time with me.
