Dog Walking In Poplar Ridge

“This was my first time using Rover and the entire process made me a little nervous. Tracy scheduled a meet and greet and answered all of my annoying questions. I have been using him for three weeks now and couldn't be happier. He sends pics from each walk and I can tell that my dog is genuinely enjoying himself. ”

About: I have taken care of animals my entire life. My family has involved me in the care of all of our family pets, including dogs of multiple sizes and multiple cats. I also have experience taking care of dogs and cats together. Additionally, I have experience caring for aquatic tanks and animals. I have owned tanks with betta fish for 5 years. I currently have two rescue cats of my own and am caring for my family’s beloved senior dog, an English Springer Spaniel. I aim to provide excellent pet care and friendly service to all pet families. I am a recent college graduate looking to establish pet sitting clients while I work on personal writing projects. I have very open availability at this time and am willing to work with clients to establish regular times for care. I will take care of your animals according to your specifications. I have supplies including extra leashes and waste bags if needed for care. I can either walk your animal right outside your home or transport them to my neighborhood for walks if needed.

“Paris was great! She was prompt with out appointment time and sent plenty of pictures! Will be using her again and would recommend to anyone needing pet services!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a child and can’t imagine my life without pets. I’ve got friends and neighbors who rely on me to visit, feed, play and stay for overnights or vacations with their pets. Would love to help others with their pet needs! I’m currently open for clients and their needs whenever needed. I have an open schedule and am ready to work with anyone on helping with their pets. Whether drop in visits or staying over at friends/neighbors houses I follow any guidelines given by the pet owners. I’m very trustworthy and do what I can to ensure the pets stay safe under my care.

About: I have owned dogs all my life. I am attentive and caring. I wanted to be a veterinarian before entering corporate America! Spending time with your pet is my dopamine! I work full time office job and would love to fill some free time loving your pet while you’re away! I will be attentive to your pets preferences and schedule. I have no pets if my own so their needs are my top priority! I live in a quiet and safe neighborhood that is perfect for your pet to spend time in!

“Natalie was great with Maximus! He’s very high energy and not the greatest on the leash. She was very patient with him! I will definitely be using Natalie in the future!”

“I had a last minute need for a dog walker and Alydia was extremely accommodating! My pup, Maximus, had an immediate liking to her so that says enough! I received tons of photos from their walk which set my mind at ease knowing he was in great hands! I would highly recommend Alydia and will be having her walk my pup again!”

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 (August-May), 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 or holidays! 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: 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.

“Haleey showed up right on time and was super sweet! My Luna loved her immediately. I’m so excited to have her walking my dog and can already tell Luna is in great hands.”

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 one 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 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.

About: I have a dog of my own and understand the responsibility that comes with taking care of your pet. I’ve always had many of pets throughout my life and would love to add your pet to my extended family. I am looking forward to showing your pet the love and attention that all humans and pets need. I live an active lifestyle so I am always out and about taking my dog on a walk. Whether it’s morning, afternoon, or night I will be walking with my pupper and would love for your pet to come along for the ride. I am a frequent attendee at the dog parks and as long as your dog is vaccinated I’m sure they would have a grand time there as well. I can feed, walk, run, and even pick up your dogs poop. I understand the responsibility that comes with pet care as I have a dog of my own who I’ve raised since he was a wee pup. I am able to work with pets of all sizes as many of my friends and family have had me watch their pets while they were away.

About: I am a loving mother of 2 and I will care for your pets as if they were one of the kids. I have dog sit before and loved it. When I was younger I use to volunteer at the animal shelter with my great-grandma and that's the reason I love animals today. I have flexible hours and can work around your schedule, anything you need I can do from dog baths to walks at the park. We also adopted a cat a couple of years ago, and we just love him to pieces. We also just adopted a dog that we have previously sat for. I’m looking to go do more things with the kids this summer so we will be able to fit in daily walks or anything needed I live in a well apartment community, with a few dog parks within! I currently work at a nursing home, my boyfriend and I work opposite schedules so someone is always at home with your fur babies. Also with it being summer I have my two kiddos help out. I will make sure each animal has proper care including a clean safe cozy shelter, clean water, regular bathroom breaks, going on walks for at least half an hour, who knows it could be longer, and so much more!
