So pleased with Ashley who watched our dog this weekend. She is a great communicator and always kept us informed with picture updates. She left the house in perfect condition like nobody was ever here. Super reliable and highly recommend her and we also plan to use her services again.

About: Through and through Hoosier here. I am originally from Decatur, IN but relocated to the beautiful '07 of Fort Wayne! I went to college at IUFW for Medical Imaging and completed my Bachelor's degree. I am pursuing this opportunity to explore and familiarize myself more with the community - as well as all the amazing pups! I grew up with 3 dogs and a cat, so I am well versed in the fur baby community! I currently have a full time job Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday so I am looking to pick up some pet care work on Tuesdays and the weekends! I have a fenced in back yard as well and a large basement suited for caring for animals in an overnight manner. I do have a cat that lives in the house who will be on the second story.

We had an amazing experience with our Rover sitter! From the beginning, communication was excellent and we felt completely comfortable leaving our pets in their care. We received updates,and could tell our pets were happy, relaxed, and very well loved while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were being treated like family. We came home to happy pets and everything was perfect. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable!

About: Let me care for your loved ones while you are away, so you can rest at ease and enjoy your adventure with your family and friends. I love being on the move and having a variety of tasks. I love helping to build a strong community as well in this area. Pets are important family members, and I believe owners should know they are valued as such when they are away. Providing your house and/or your pets is the priority while you are away/or needing services. Let me provide you the peace of mind that your house and your pets will receive the highest quality of attention. I have lived in many countries, led international mission trips, and have cared for many owner's houses/pets.

We booked Eliot to watch out house/dogs while we were on spring break. We are so glad we found him! He was very communicative and sent updates while still being able to manage our three Aussies independently. He was so kind and calm and we could tell that our dogs felt at ease with him by how they acted when we returned from our extended trip.

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 trained and taken care of all types of dog breeds. Ranging from a great pyreness to a shitzu. I am patient and dedicated. I am a stay at home mom, so I am home most of the day, 7 days a week. My daughter is in preschool, so I drop her off and pick her up but it is a short amount of time to do that. I have a fenced in yard, and will take the dogs on many walks. I absolutely will do anything requested to make you feel comfortable with leaving your fur babies with me!

About: I've grown up surrounded by pets—from energetic pups to laid-back cats—and caring for animals has always been second nature. For the past three years, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for my family during vacations, making sure their pets are safe, happy, and loved. I bring that same level of care and attention to every pet I meet! I also have an in house camera system for constant monitoring. Working third shift gives me a flexible daytime schedule, which means I’m wide awake and available when most people are at work. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon playtime, or midday check-ins, I have the time and energy to give your pet the attention they deserve. I provide care from my apartment, creating a safe and cozy environment for your pet. I live in a very quiet pet friendly neighborhood. I'm also physically strong, which allows me to confidently handle larger or high-energy dogs while keeping them safe and happy. I use flea prevention spray and traps between each client.

About: I have had experience with pet care since I was a kid. Growing up, my family always had pets, including dogs, cats, and even some small rodents. I was responsible for feeding them, taking them for walks, and ensuring they had a clean and safe environment. As I got older, I gained more knowledge about pet health and wellness, and I even volunteered at local animal shelters to help care for abandoned or injured animals. This hands-on experience has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and responsibility when it comes to taking care of pets. I truly enjoy being around animals and providing them with the love and care they deserve. I currently work 2 jobs so im normally free all day Mondays, Tuesday evenings and Thursday's as well so i do have available schedule just message me and we can go from there I own 2 dogs currently live with 4 and i actively train them everyday.I like challenging my own pets minds because it helps them think for themselves But also keeping me happy because i already know they do the right thing when im there and not there to watch them.Caring for other people pets i like to do what makes the owner comfortable or even teach them something they didn't know before.
