About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 8. I love all animals but especially dogs. I’m an RN but in my free time I love being outdoors and going for walks. I work part time. So I have plenty of free time to spend with your beloved pets. I love going for walks and being active outdoor I have a fenced in yard and live in a quiet neighborhood that’s perfect for walks. I have the sweetest lab to keep your fur baby company with playing or napping.

“Wes, does such a great job with our dog. They seem to get along so well, and I feel reassured that Bailey is in good hands during their walks.”

“Joelle was great! She was prompt and did everything I asked for. Luna is a happy doggie and we can’t wait to have Joelle back next time I need help.”

About: I love animals, I grow up on a ranch for most of my childhood. I've been around and taken care of all kinds of animals throughout the years; dogs, cats chickens, goats, pigs, ducks, and turkeys. I've had a number of dogs that are all different breads; my chihuahua Daisy that I had since she was a pup until she was 9 years old. My three beautiful mixed Black Labs/ Chows Bob, Rita, and Uno. Bob and Rita came to us together and unbeknownst to us Rita was pregnant. Shortly after we got Uno who was the first of his litter of 9. My last pup was Bobby a sweet beautiful Pitbull that my brother and I rescued when he was about 3 years old. I currently have no pets to call my own, sense moving to the Fort Wayne area. I miss having the company of a fur baby of my own. I have house and dog sit for a number of friends and colleagues and I absolutely love it. I would love the opportunity meet, play and nap with new furry friends. I currently do contract work and don’t have a set schedule, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I’m often available during the day, in the evenings, and on weekends. Since I’m new to Fort Wayne, I would love having a furry walking buddy while I explore the area’s parks and trails! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. During drop-in visits, I will carefully follow your instructions for feeding, water, medication, playtime, walks, and any other needs. I’ll treat your pet and home with respect, keep doors and gates secure, and provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe and receiving plenty of attention. I do not currently offer boarding or daycare in my home.

“Sadie was very good with our 2 dogs. She walked them 2 days during wedding festivities. I would definitely have her care for my dogs again!”

About: I’m Sarah and I would love to be your pet sitter for your dogs or cats. Since I was a kid I have kept and cared for many animals, including dogs, cats, reptiles, rodent, horses, and frogs! It would be my pleasure to meet and care for your furry friend. Through Rover I have sat for many dog breeds including: huskies, labs, great danes, leonbergers, spaniels, dachshunds, beagles, black mouth curs, bulldogs, pugs, pit bulls, malteses, and more. They all have their unique personalities and energy level requirements that I am capable of providing for each breed. Currently, I specialize in trusted at-home overnight care, drop-in visits, and dog walking. I am also an excellent communicator with pet parents while you are away, sending plenty of photos and updates to make sure you are perfectly at ease with the care being given to your fuzzy children. I can currently care for up to 3 dogs per household. Shoot me a message and let’s connect today! Currently, Rover pet care is a top priority. I am also self-employed, but I am able to stay with your pets all day during in-home bookings, unless I step out to run errands or hit the gym. Dog walking means allowing your dog to get the energy out that they need while also receiving the enrichment of being safely outside. For in-home visits your pets will get their breakfast, lunch, and dinner right on time with any needed medication administered just as you instruct. Playtime is a favorite of mine with any animal I care for, just show me their favorite toys! When any questions or concerns arise I do not hesitate to contact the pet parents.

“Jessica was a great match for Teddy. Her calm voice and knowledge of dogs made for a very positive experience!”

About: I've had a dog since I was roughly 9 and she passed away recently so I'd like to spend some of my love of dogs with your dogs! I currently have 2 cats, Ekko and Demeter. I work a swing shift with a set schedule so I can usually schedule walks in pretty easily! Generally I'm more busy on 1 week at work than the next week so most of my availability is on the short week. I treat your pets with love and care as I treat my own, if this is their time during the day you're at work that they are allowed to go outside then I'll make sure to let them sniff and walk a little extra.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring dog sitter with experience caring for dogs of different breeds and sizes. Having owned and cared for several dogs in the past, I understand the importance of providing love, attention, exercise, and a safe environment while you’re away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and treat every pet as if they were my own. I look forward to helping keep your furry friend happy, comfortable, and well cared for! I do have an another job I do as well but I make my own schedule with it so I have a very flexible schedule! I have a spacious apartment that your pet can roam freely around and it is dog proof as I have my own dog that your pet can play with!

About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart. Growing up on a farm, I was surrounded by creatures big and small—everything from conures to bison. From an early age, I learned not just how to care for animals, but how to truly respect them. That foundation deepened over the years into a lifelong appreciation for the bond we share with our animal companions. Adopting my dog Uschi was life-changing—she taught me about unconditional love, loyal companionship, and even nudged me toward a healthier lifestyle. That experience reinforced my commitment to providing pets with the same love and care I give my own. I understand how important it is to feel confident when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. That’s why I prioritize consistency, comfort, and safety. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, respect any dietary needs, and make sure they feel calm and cared for every step of the way. I can’t wait to run, play, and give your sweet baby the love they deserve! I currently work remote at my own pace, so I have full availability any time of day, morning or over night. Complete flexibility to your schedule. My overnight stays are flexible and can be tailored to your pet’s specific needs. I’m happy to take care of small home tasks like bringing in the mail or taking out the trash—just let me know what you'd like. We can also go over feeding schedules, walk routines, and note any areas that are off-limits to ensure everything runs smoothly. I understand that separation anxiety is common, and I approach each visit with patience, empathy, and a calming presence. Your pet’s comfort and emotional well-being are my top priority, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, seen, and cared for in your absence. I’m also very mindful of pet nutrition—no treats or dietary changes will be made without your clear consent. I’m available for a wide range of time frames and am happy to adapt to your pet’s rhythm and routine, providing consistency, comfort, and a little extra love while you're away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for family friends and neighbors since I was very young. I also have a lot experience with cats, as I own two myself! I graduated with a B.A. in environmental and marine science in 2023 and worked as a zookeeper for two years. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to take care of your pet! I am available during mornings and evenings depending on the day I am not able to care for pets in my home. Both of my cats are quite old and do not do well when around other animals.

About: I've been around dogs ever since I was a child. I rarely come across a dog that I don't like or that doesn't like me! I currently do dog sitting and walking for friends and family and would love to expand my services to others looking for high quality dog care. I work part-time so I usually have a very flexible schedule with a lot of availability. Mornings through afternoons are usually the best times . I meet the needs of the dog owner when watching dogs in a client's home. I understand that dogs can have varying needs/schedules. I feel comfortable giving dogs necessary medicines and meeting any special needs. I can go the extra mile to make sure your dog(s) are happy and safe. I've even saved a dog that fell in a pool once!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life. Growing up we always had a dog, and we have had dogs of all sizes. I love making dogs happy and letting them run around and enjoy themselves! I’m new to this so please don’t hesitate to give me a shot at helping you out so I can gain some ratings and get myself out there more! I’m a full time student and a father. I go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays but every other day of the week I am available. I am also available during weekends but those days would vary more than the week days. It’s going to be cold out soon, and I don’t mind walking dogs in the cold so you don’t have to! I have two dogs in my home! I let them out multiple times a day, make sure they get fed what they are supposed to be fed when they are supposed to be fed. And I love my dogs and I know everyone else does. I am blessed with the opportunity to have a more open schedule than most, and I want to help! Pet care can be stressful, but it doesn’t need to be.

“She was so nice and thorough. I real really feel like I was on the walk with them, because of the awesome updates and photos.”

“Makayla is awesome! My dog can be hesitant around new people but immediately warmed up to her which I immediately recognized as a win. She went above and beyond to make sure both my dog and I were comfortable, with her excellent communication, flexibility, and easy-going disposition. I would 100% recommend Makayla to anyone looking for exceptional care for their four-legged loved one.”

About: I've taken care of dogs (and cats) since I was in high school. Friends, family, neighbors, and others have relied on me to feed, walk, play with, and provide medication and other health management to their pets. I also personally care for my own special needs dog who has Addison's Disease. I just completed my first year working as a Speech Language Pathologist in the school system and would like to keep active and earn additional income by helping take care of others' pets over the summer :) I will do what is necessary to provide the best care possible to your pets and follow any directions you have. I will always ask questions for clarification or if I am unsure about what your pet needs. You know what is best for your pet and I want to ensure that I am providing the best care for them possible.

About: I have grown up around pets my whole life. Currently I have a small Havanese and a cat, but if it were up to me I would have a-lot more! I have previous experience watching my neighbors Basset hound and Rottweiler for weeks at a time while they were on vacation. This consisted of many walks a day, feeding the dogs, picking up poop out of the yard, and staying the night at their house. I also have pet sit for a family with two Yorkies, a Chihuahua and a bunny. One summer I nannied/ dog sat for a family with a toddler and golden doodle three times a week. One unique experience I have is caring for a blind and deaf elderly dog. I had to watch her while she went to the bathroom, carry her up the stairs, feed her separately from the other dogs, and pick her up when she fell. I believe that I can tackle any challenge and give your pets the best care they deserve! I am currently a student with classes in the mid morning. I could let pets out/ dog walk in the morning before class and I am free in the afternoons and able to stay overnight if needed. I would take into consideration my surroundings in a house before taking my eyes off the animal. I don’t plan on watching animals in my own home so I would trust that the owners provide a safe environment for their pets. I would have a meet and greet with the owner and pets prior to watching them to fully understand what the owner expects of me.
