“Natalie took great care of my lab while I was out of town. She sent me pictures that insured me he was doing well. When I picked up dog he seemed happy that he made new friends. I recommend Natalie for your pet sitting needs!!”


“I was nervous about contacting a new sitter as my dog is very special in all of the best ways. But Azure was wonderful & my dog is still sleeping off all of the fun he had the 10 days he was with her. S/o to Rufus, the dog she brought over to keep my dog Apollo company, I think he found a new bestie. Highly recommended her as a sitter!!!”


“Stephanie cared for Paw Paw and Pepper as her own family members. Prompt response. Ample updates. Dogs came back to US very relaxed and well taken care of. Definitely recommend.”


“I'm so glad we found Karisa and her family. We were looking for someone to take care of our dog, Trooper, while we were out of town. We boarded him with Karisa and everything was great. We received messages all week long with pictures, and we could tell Trooper had a great time. We will definitely plan on boarding Trooper with Karisa in the future.”


“Agnatha was amazing. We did the meet and greet while my dog, Cookie, was in perfect health. Unfortunately that evening my dog would need emergency surgery. My hotel wasn't refundable and I was worried about leaving my dog who now had to wear a cone and take medication. But Agnatha said she would be perfectly fine taking care of Cookie post surgery. When we picked Cookie up she was happy and healthy.”


“Trudy had a great time! She was let on the bed and hung out with the kids and family...I received many pictures during the stay which I loved...and when I arrived to take her home...she ran to the back door...we thought she wanted to go potty...she ran out...and turned around and waited for me...I walked out...she ran the yard twice and then wanted back in...there were many pics of her in the backyard...and she just wanted to show me where she had been...then she was ready to go home...definitely will rebook!”


“Melissa was absolutely fantastic! Kind, understanding, and clearly very experienced with dogs. If I had to leave my lil buddy with anyone again, it would definitely be her.”


“Emily did a wonderful job watching our 8 month old Golden Retriever puppy - it was our first time to board him and a little tough to do. She sent us several pictures over his 2 night stay - he was romping in her fenced in back yard with two other younger dogs, having a great time. (Bailey misses his new friends!). We will definitely have Emily watch Bailey again!”


“Jennifer has sat my 17 lb Eskimo dog mix twice now, and each time she has been easy to work with, communicative, friendly, and professional. I'm really grateful that she's been available when I'm in town visiting family.”


“Joscelyn was very communicative and flexible with us. Our schedule was crazy but she worked with us and our dog was taken well care of and didn’t mind going back 3 times. If he didn’t like it he would have let me know. Special thanks and if we ever come back to Ft. Wayne, we will definitely look you up.”


“Laura and her family were very welcoming to Lily and was very flexible to work with my schedule. She treated Lily like family and gave her lots of treats and love. Will be booking with her again!”


“Kristen was super communicative and very friendly. I've never boarded any pet before and Kristen made the process super easy! She sends lots of updates and pictures, and her home is wonderful. I felt very comfortable leaving our pets in her hands. Will be using her again, if we need to!”


“April and the kids did great with Gus. We like her location to be able to walk him in the Pufferbelly. Gus stayed for the weekend and came back tired. She provided pictures and assurance. We will use her again.”


“Our dog Lexi had a great week with Rachel and her family. Lexi adapted very well and was very comfortable. Rachel provided updates and pictures. Very impressed with our first time and will definitely be returning. Would recommend to friends and family!”


“Millie was great! This was my first time being away from the puppy and she was so sweet and loving with her, and she communicated with me and sent me updates and pictures. So cute! And she has a backyard and a park nearby. I will definitely use Millie again!”


“An even better 2nd booking experience. Nan and her family and little Henry are really good to my baby boy. She is really a Nana to him. She even knew to take him for a walk to help him use up his excess energy, which I thought was awesome. He is SUPER energetic. I highly recommend and Kai and I are now official return clients!”


“Salehin accepted my request last minute and really helped me with my dog! He sent me constant pictures and gave me updates on her. She was happy when she left :)”


“This is the first time we had used Rover, and so glad we did. I knew our boys were taking care of. We were sent pictures on a regular basis. Gail and Charles were great. Thank you.”


“Absolutely loved her!!!! She was so welcoming with my dog! She would keep me updated on my dog! And she just so nice, she also took my dog to her moms house for thanksgiving so my dog wouldn’t be alone which I thought was really nice and thoughtful! Definitely recommend!! You’ll want her to babysit your dog!!”


“Malik and Kolby were so great to my Dexter. They were very communicative with me and sent me pictures everyday. Drop off and pick up was easy and stress free. This was my first time leaving my Dex with anyone other than family but they both made me feel at ease as I was able to meet them and have them meet Dexter a few days before we left on our trip. I would 100% recommend Malik and Kolby to everyone I know that needs to board their dog.”
