“Cassandra did a great job taking care of Banjo for two nights. Communication was excellent (photos and videos, along with messages about how he was doing), and Cassandra was willing to accommodate drop-off and pickup requests to fit my schedule for the weekend. I have always been apprehensive about boarding my dogs at a kennel if I have to go out of town for more than one night. Cassandra made Banjo feel at home and kept him in a normal, relaxed environment and routine.”

Her kids played well with the dogs and they had access to her fenced in back yard and inviting dog-friendly home. Thanks for all the great care you gave my dogs while they were with you. They are in great spirits and seem like they just went on a little vacation. Looking forward to future bookings.”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my ability to provide structured, attentive, and compassionate care that meets both the physical and emotional needs of dogs. I am highly attentive to routines, behavior cues, and individual temperaments, allowing me to create a calm, safe, and consistent environment for each dog in my care. My dog-sitting skills extend beyond basic supervision to include proper exercise, reinforcement of positive behavior, and close observation to ensure overall well-being. I approach every responsibility with professionalism, reliability, and clear communication, giving pet owners confidence and peace of mind that their dogs are receiving exceptional, dependable care in their absence I have a flexible schedule and am available most of the time, allowing me to provide reliable and attentive care. While I am generally free during the week, I may occasionally have other commitments on weekends, though I communicate availability clearly in advance to ensure proper planning. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every aspect of the care I provide. My upstairs apartment is clean, secure, and pet-friendly, with close supervision at all times to ensure pets remain safe and comfortable. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, dietary needs, and any special instructions provided, and I maintain a consistent and structured environment to reduce stress. My community offers designated areas for walking dogs, allowing for regular exercise in a controlled and safe setting. Through attentive care, clear communication, and respect for both the pet and the owner’s expectations, I strive to create a secure, trusting, and welcoming home where pets feel comfortable and well cared for
“Kristen took excellent care of our puppy! This was our dog’s first time with an overnight sitter and she had a fantastic time with Kristen’s family, and made some new pup friends. We’ll absolutely be bringing her back for doggy daycare and overnight boarding. Couldn’t recommended Kristen enough!”
“Madeline was absolutely incredible from the beginning of the process, to the end. She was prompt with responses when I inquired about her services, and she made sure to accommodate my pups particular needs. She sent me daily pictures of the fun activities, and based on my dogs demeanor, I could tell he felt right at home. I highly recommend her for dog sitting and will be going to her directly for any future boarding needs!”
“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.”
“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.”
“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”
“Wonderful and attentive care givers for my senior dog. I received daily updates, they were perfect! We were afraid she wouldn’t want to come home, she received so much love and attention!”

I had a great experience with this dog sitter. He was very kind and accommodating, especially since my booking was very last minute. He still made the time to come get and take care of my dog, which I really appreciated. He also sent me pictures while she was with him, which reassured me that she was safe and doing well. This was my first time being away from my dog, so I was a little nervous, but he made the experience much easier and more comfortable for me. It was such a relief to know she was safe and even having fun. Overall, the service was excellent and I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet.
Amara took great care of our boy Moon. She sent photos and videos of him all throughout his stay, and he looked at ease and happy in all of them. The large play yard was a perfect place for him to run and explore, and it felt good knowing he was getting play time and snuggles while we were gone. Will definitely call on Amara again.
She was great with my dog, super communicative, sent pics/vids, and was flexible when my plans changed. Being new to town, I was nervous leaving my dog with a stranger, but she made the whole thing smooth and my dog seemed to enjoy his time with her. Definitely would recommend!
Brian immediately connected with Narius and had a very calm and steady presence that helped put my dog at ease. He updated me regularly with photos and comments about how Narius was doing, and took him to the dog park,let him run around, get some energy out and have fun. Brian is intelligent and communicative and I will definitely rebook him.
Thank you Eliza!! Our pups were so happy and calm when we picked them up last night. You have such a welcoming and calm home, thank you for sharing it with us 😊 Review: Eliza was great with communication and sent lots of pictures and notes to let us know how our dogs were doing. Her home is beautiful and very dog friendly, and her other fur babies are happy and friendly. Great experience!!
