They took great care of my boy. They only sent one or two photos a day; our other sitters spoiled us with photos, but he was in great hands.

Azure accepted my booking at the last minute. I am so happy I found her as she is located really close to me and she was phenomenal with Bella. She was so kind and caring. She also gave me updates as to how Bella was doing - that was special for me. I love that Bella was at a home rather than a kennel. I will defineitely be using her again. Thank you Azure!

My pup slept all night after I got her back so I know she had fun playing with the other pups. Good contact during the stay with photos. Happy with my visit and last minute availability.

Natalie was great, she recommended a meet n greet the day before so Bucky could meet her and her dogs. Bucky has a great time for the week we were gone and Natalie provided pics and videos almost every day. Bucky was exhausted when he got home. It was a pleasant experience.

Agnatha is so wonderful. This was our first time leaving our dog alone over night, and I think we were way more nervous about it than he was. Agnatha kept us updated with messages and photos and seems like the stay could not have gone better. We will definitely book with her again!

Mindi's gentle spirit was a perfect fit for Ozzy. He was very happy when picked up and seemed to enjoy his walks and time with Mindi. She kept in touch by sending pictures of Ozzy and asked questions about how best to care for him. I will gladly reach out to Mindi again the next time we need someone to watch Ozzy.

April and her kids were great with Whiskey. He got plays with his favorite tug toy, and a nice walk. It was only for one night but she kept me updated with pictures and messages. I appreciated all of the updates. He came home exhausted and slept soundly the entire day.

Kristen watched our pup while we were on vacation. She kept us updated on how he was doing which we appreciated because this was the first time we went out of town since we adopted him. He had a good time playing with other dogs and was well taken care of. We had issues with our flights being delayed and cancelled and she was kind enough to keep our puppy for an extra day that we were not expecting. We are very glad we found Kristen!! She has great reviews for a reason! 10/10 would highly recommend and we would love for her to watch our pup again in the future. Abner was safe and we trust Kristen fully. Thank you so much Kristen!

We loved boarding our Everitt with Cory. He was very in tune and experienced with dogs and how they act and was understanding of our young dog’s behavior. When we picked her up we could tell she was well cared for and happy with her stay. We would use him again and would recommend him to anybody that is looking for somebody

Stephanie was beyond phenomenal, it was my second time using her services and you couldn’t ask for anyone more caring and thoughtful, I traveled overseas and always gave me options for updates incase I didn’t have service. She also got my baby a birthday treat and made sure to love my babies like her own. From the bottom of my heart thank you for keeping them safe, loved, and happy

Jennifer is clearly a dog lover! Theo stayed with her this past weekend and had a blast with his other dog friends around him. He seemed to love Jennifer as soon as i dropped him off which made me feel comfortable leaving him there. I plan on booking her in the near future and highly recommend for anyone in need of a sitter!

Millie and her family are amazing, the daily pictures, updates and touch bases with how our dog was doing while we were away really made us feel like we were there with him the entire time. When our pet had an upset stomach Millie went above and beyond to give him chicken, rice and pumpkin puree to help calm his stomach.

About: We provide residential boarding in both our house and finished barn depending on availability and needs. You can schedule a tour. Drop off and pick up time as early as 7am and 11pm. Playtime in the yard is included. You can pay extra for a daily walk. Charged a flat rate per night. Updates available during stay. All dogs are welcome small, big, young, old, friendly, and we are also capable of caring for aggressive dogs. As a family business, my wife Valerie is home during the day to care for clients and I’m home in the evening and weekends to assist. Client needs are met with compassion and knowledge. Care is discussed in detailed and documented. Updates are sent as requested. Dogs in the house must be able to be crated, otherwise the large indoor/outdoor runs in the barn are a better option.

I was new to Fort Wayne and had a baby back in Ohio. Emily and her family so flexible and available during that time. I don’t know what we would have done without her. We ended up extending a couple times and our dogs came home so happy. Knowing they were so well taken care of during a crazy time meant a lot. I would absolutely book again

Agnatha is just the BEST! Risotto loves her so much that he puts on a little temper tantrum when we have to pick him up to bring him home! Definitely recommend hiring Agnatha to watch your dogs!

Mindi did a great job. Gizmo needed extra care due to his age she handled it like a pro! Gizmo needed meds and used an inhaler and had an ear infection at the time. I highly recommend Mindi she is very attentive and takes special care when dog sitting!

Millie's family did an incredible job with our babies for almost 2 weeks. We have a shy pup and an anxious one and her family was so good with them. They gave us updates a couple times a day and even grabbed more green beans when I didn't send enough. If you need a sitter for your babies, Millie and her family will exceed your expectations. They're communication and love they give are unmatched!

Our flights were unexpectedly canceled last night, and we weren’t able to fly out until Thursday. Alexandra stepped in without hesitation and took such great care of our pets during a very stressful situation. She was incredibly kind, flexible, and reassuring, and we were so relieved knowing our pets were in good hands. We were extremely happy with the way she helped us out and took care of everything. Truly grateful for her support and would absolutely recommend her to anyone.
