About: Hi there! I’m Anahi, and I’m an experienced and compassionate pet caregiver 😊 I started when I was 17 years old, caring for my family’s pets. My previous pet was a dog named Nova, she got along well with my kids and other dogs! I’m reliable, trustworthy and have experience with both routine care and special requests! I’m also very understanding and flexible with my prices- please feel free to message me and I’m sure we can figure something that works for the both of us! Trust your furry friend to someone who understands, they’re more than just pets, they’re family !🐶💗 I can offer daily walks, a backyard where we can play all day, treats, toys and more! Im a stay at home mom, with plenty of time on my hands ! I’m looking into doing pet care because of my previous dog. I used to spend all day with her, she was the sweetest and I just feel like keeping myself busy with pets would bring a lot of fun back into mine and my family’s life without having to replace her right away 🥲 In my home, I can provide daily walks, supervised play time outside, toys, cuddles and more! I will ask for feeding and potty schedule, and a crate just in case I need to run out and do an errand. When caring in my clients home, it’s all based on their preferences 😁

“Erin is amazing! She is a great communicator, and our puppy loves to go to her house! She has taken great care of Cash and is our go-to person to watch him!”


About: I've been a dog owner since I was 12. My husband, Ryan, and I have experience with all types of dogs and a neighborhood full of friendly dogs that's great for long walks. We do have 2 children, ages 7 and 8. They are NOT be around during traditional "work" hours, 8:30am-5pm M-F, but will be present on evenings and weekends. They are calm and respectful around animals and will never be left alone with your pet. I work from home 5 days per week, and am home most weekends. I own my own company and only work part-time, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks and playtime. We live in a urban walking-friendly neighborhood, just 1 block from the River Greenway trail. There is plenty of space in my office for a dog to curl up and make itself at home. In nicer months, I work outside on our shaded open-air porch, and would love for your dog to join me!

“Salehin took care of our Chihuahua “Booger”. He even texted us updates to let us know that “Booger” was settling in fine while we were out. Would highly recommend him if you need to leave your pup with someone.”


“Excellent service.”

I love meeting new animals and getting to know them and spend time with them I have 4 days off every week so i can give my full attention and dedication to any pets whether it be sitting or drop ins. I would love to take any dogs i’m sitting to the huge park beside to my house or go for a walk around the neighborhood.

“I can't say enough good things about Amy! She played enough to wear my high energy dog out! Vinny was so well taken care of, and she sent lots of pics and a video. All the updates were great and I was jealous that he was having so much fun while I was at work. I actually hope I get an occasion to use Amy again!”


“Brian did a wonderful job watching our dog for a few hours during a weekend trip. He was easy to communicate with. His home and reviews all align with his listing. I would absolutely recommend him if you are in need of a sitter in the Fort Wayne area!”

About: I have a special place in my heart for animals and those who help provide them a better life. My first job was at a pet store followed by vet assistant jobs. All while having pets myself. It’s a privilege to share this beautiful earth with them. Let me help you on your busy days so your fur babies don’t feel left out. I have two dogs and I make my own schedule so I am fairly flexible to attend to your babies needs. Thank you for this opportunity. I will always be aware of your babies whereabouts and will offer a safe space for them to enjoy their day. I will follow the directions given to care for your baby in the manor they are accustomed to.

About: I am a mom of 2 college-aged kids. I work from home and have time and love to share. I have owned my own pets since graduating from college. My family has been blessed with multiple dogs, cats, horses, goats and chickens. We no longer live on a farm but live in a very animal-friendly subdivision with abundant sidewalks for dog walking. My daughter and I are animal lovers and have fostered 4 puppies and numerous adult dogs waiting for transportation to their furever homes. We also volunteer seasonally with the Humane Society of Cozumel and assist with spay/neuter recovery. We welcome the energy that 4-legged visitors bring to our home. We have an adopted, aging chihuahua mix who is not very active. I would love to talk to you and meet your babies before either of us makes a commitment. Of course, it has to be a good fit. Your confidence and trust in a pet-sitter is crucial. I believe I can be the one to love and care for your baby like you do. I live in the Sw suburbs and have a large fenced backyard that backs up to a wooded area. We have lots of great sidewalks for taking long walks with little traffic. I work from home online Monday through Friday. My schedule is flexible and I enjoy the company that dogs provide. I can provide plenty of outside time and playtime during the day. I have a large fenced in backyard. I also provide walks in my neighborhood or yours. The activity level is dependent on your pets needs. I always feed dogs separately.

“We are so thankful Agnatha was able to watch our baby, Jett! She was so nice, friendly and very welcoming to Jett. We loved getting pictures & knowing our baby was in safe hands. If we are ever back in town we’ll be using Agnatha again! Highly recommend her!! ❤️”


“Charlie loves them so much! He’s always tired from all the playing and wags his tail when he sees them at drop off. They provide updates and are a really sweet couple. My dog is very shy, so knowing they won him over makes me feel great about leaving him in their care.”

13. Eran P.
“I asked Eran to help watch my dog Ziggy recently when I needed to be away from home for a couple of days. I was really nervous about leaving him with anyone, because he is 14 years old, completely deaf, and only has one eye. He also wears a belly band but sneaks around and takes it off, so there are sometimes accidents in the house and that can make it hard for people to want him in their homes. I was scared to use a boarding facility because that would be too different and stressful for him, especially at this age, so I asked Eran if he would be willing to take care of him. Ziggy was able to meet Eran and his dogs in advance, and everyone got along very well. Eran's dogs are both much bigger than Ziggy but they are very friendly and gentle. I was also able to teach Eran most of the sign language I use to communicate with Ziggy, because he has now gone completely deaf and is not able to respond to verbal commands at this point. When I dropped him off, Ziggy was more interested in what the other dogs were doing than he was in me... which made me feel more comfortable. In most new environments he won't take his eyes off of me and seems nervous if I am out of his sight, but he was exploring the rooms and showing zero signs of distress. While I was away, I got several videos and pictures of Ziggy out on walks or just hanging out with Eran and that was very comforting. I texted a few times to see how it was going, and got an instant response each time, communication was truly above expectations. Eran will definitely be my first choice the next time I need a sitter to help me take care of Ziggy.”
