“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.”


“Ellie did a great job walking my dog during our vacation! She definitely walked her for a good distance and clearly loved on her well too!”


“Wes was wonderful, Harriet was very happy when I got home.”


“Christina has been a blessing! It’s dark before I get home from work but now I have Christina who comes to my home and walks Milo in my neighborhood. It gives me peace of mind knowing Milo is being taken care of and a lot less stressful on me. She is incredibly kind and Milo looks forward to their walks. She got him a squeaker for Christmas, he loves that toy!”


“Ginny was very friendly and prompt! And most importantly, my sweet old dog loved her. Thanks Ginny :)”


About: Since I was a child, animals have been a part of my life. In the summer when I was not in school, I would bathe, walk, and feed pets in my neighborhood as a hobby. And now that I am older, I have applied that enthusiasm to my current career. Hello! My name is Grace, and I am an extremely outgoing person who is always eager to meet new people and animals. I have a lovely cat named Jasper and a loving dog named Maze. In addition, I have worked for two years at the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo, where I care for a variety of species such as birds, lizards, and aquatic animals. There I have the joy of meeting animals all day, so I hope I will be able to see yours too very soon! I am working part-time at my current job so I can spend time with your animals Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday all day for walks, pet sitting, overnight sitting, and drop-ins. It's crucial to respect and adhere to my client's privacy, house rules, and especially their pet security requirements no matter what my opinions are. I always think it is a great idea to ask before taking action.

“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.”

My backyard is fenced, and my neighborhood is wonderful for walking with many winding sidewalks and beautiful trees.

I am able to come to your house to take care of your pet in their own environment and am also able to walk as much as they want!

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.

About: I've had a lifelong love for dogs and currently have two Irish Setters in the family, so I understand the energy, patience, and attention dogs of all ages need. I’m passionate about helping pet owners who may not have the time in their busy schedules to give their dogs the exercise and companionship they deserve. Whether it's a playful puppy or a senior dog needing a gentler pace, I provide caring, reliable support tailored to each dog's needs. I'm a sophomore at Indiana University Bloomington, and I'm home for the summer in southwest Fort Wayne with extra time on my hands. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine right now — I have a flexible schedule and plenty of energy to dedicate to walking, playing with, and caring for dogs. I care for pets by visiting them in their own home, where they feel most comfortable and secure. I make sure to follow any specific routines or instructions provided, whether that’s for feeding, playtime, or potty breaks. For dog walking, I prioritize safe, enjoyable walks tailored to each dog's energy level and needs, giving them the exercise, attention, and companionship they deserve.
