“Azure kept me informed by sending me pictures of my Jade and letting me know what she was up to and how she was doing. Jade appeared to be happy and looked right at home which made me know that she was in very good hands and I had absolutely no worries. Thank you Azure, Jade and I are looking forward to more stays. ?”


“Karisa was AMAZING! Not only did she send me pics of Dez while she sat him, but she also gave updates! Her daughter made doggy treats for Dez, she took Dez on walks and gave us a thank you card! Karisa and family were the kindest people and we will DEFINITELY book her again! Thank you for being awesome, Karisa!”


“Violet always has the best time when she goes to Agnathas home! She comes back exhausted, from all the play time she gets in while there! Agnatha loves to spoil Violet as well, she snuggles her and lets her on the sofa! I was worried Violet wouldn’t want to come back home with us. It is a nice relief knowing our pup is getting the best care while we are away!”


“An even better 2nd booking experience. Nan and her family and little Henry are really good to my baby boy. She is really a Nana to him. She even knew to take him for a walk to help him use up his excess energy, which I thought was awesome. He is SUPER energetic. I highly recommend and Kai and I are now official return clients!”


“Our dog Lexi had a great week with Rachel and her family. Lexi adapted very well and was very comfortable. Rachel provided updates and pictures. Very impressed with our first time and will definitely be returning. Would recommend to friends and family!”


“Alexis was amazing with our elderly Boston Terrier - she sent frequent pictures and updates and made us feel reassured that our pup was in good hands! We already booked another stay with her!”


“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 took excellent care of my dog and made his first boarding experience a complete success. During the meet and greet, her interactions with him made it immediately clear she is very caring and sensitive to the needs of all of the pets. My dog trusted her right away, and showed signs he was comfortable and happy to be there. He had a good time making friends and socializing with the dogs, and even played with cats for the first time. Kristen gave great information, was very thorough, and was flexible with my schedule and last minute changes. She provided great updates during his stay, and a nice report once I picked him up. I would definitely recommend her and will continue to book with her in the future.”


“We were in Indiana for a wedding and wanted our little pup close rather than leaving him states away. Sara took great care of our little Marley. He was so tired when we picked him up from all the playing and running around. She let us know how he was doing often and sent us photos. We would definitely use her again if we lived in the area!”


About: I’m currently pursuing my education with one goal in mind: to make a meaningful difference in the lives of your beloved fur babies! Whether it’s training energetic puppies or giving extra love and care to senior pets, I’m here for it all. I’ve been caring for animals since I was just 4 years old, and with my Bachelor’s Degree in Biological Sciences—concentrating in Ecology—I’m excited to bring both heart and science together to provide the best care possible. Making tails wag and pets feel safe is truly my passion! I’m currently available on weekends, which means I can dedicate lots of quality time to caring for and playing with your fur baby! Now that I’ve finished college, I also have plenty of free time—perfect for early morning potty breaks, training sessions, fun play routines, and even overnight visits with attentive monitoring and late-night potty runs. Your pet’s comfort and routine are my top priority! I have spare crates available and two sweet pups of my own who love making new friends! With plenty of toys and regular trips to public parks, your fur baby will have lots of enrichment and playtime. My apartment even has a doggy-gated play area where your pup can run around safely and freely! For added peace of mind, I’m fully prepared for emergencies—I can crate when necessary, and I use doggy seat belts for safe car rides. I’m also CPR-certified and have hands-on experience with syringe-feeding medications if needed. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priority!

“Ozzie had the best care at Stephanie’s. I was afraid he wouldn’t want to come home with me! She treated him just like her own and I feel very lucky to have had found her. I will definitely try to rebook next time we travel.”


“Joscelyn was very communicative and flexible with us. Our schedule was crazy but she worked with us and our dog was taken well care of and didn’t mind going back 3 times. If he didn’t like it he would have let me know. Special thanks and if we ever come back to Ft. Wayne, we will definitely look you up.”


“My precious pup stayed at Millie’s for a few days (this is his 2nd time staying at Millie’s) and it was just as wonderful as the first time he stayed. I highly recommend Millie! It was really nice knowing my dog was in such good hands w Millie and her family while I was away. Thanks again Millie and Millie’s wonderful family!”


“Jennifer and her family were amazing. She took wonderful care of our sometimes anxious pups. She even made sure they took their medicine and felt safe during a thunderstorm. Her home was clean and well-equipped for dog sitting. I would absolutely book with Jennifer again!”


“Salehin accepted my request last minute and really helped me with my dog! He sent me constant pictures and gave me updates on her. She was happy when she left :)”


“I am so glad I found this app to have met Laura! She was AMAZING from the very beginning. I have never boarded my dog overnight with anyone outside of family and Laura made the process for myself and my Legend boy so easy! I always go off how my boy reacts to people when he meets them and he felt very comfortable with Laura during our first meet up which gave me a peace of mind about the entire process. Laura communication was GREAT she messaged me with any questions and she also shared updates through messages and pictures of my Legend boy throughout his stay! Her response back to me was always done in a timely matter. She was just AWESOME and easy to work with. I will definitely be returning and would recommend Laura to anyone who is looking for a safe, friendly, loving place for their fur babies to stay when in need of a sitter💗.”


“Mikendra was an awesome sitter. Great communication and my dog came home happy and content.She also sent videos and pictures ! Much better than when he come home from a boarder. I will definitely use her services again! Thank you ❤️”


About: I’ve spent my life around dogs and had the privilege of raising my own from puppyhood to his senior years — 14 amazing years together. While I’m not looking to bring a new dog into my home full-time right now, I still genuinely enjoy being around them. I tailor care to each dog’s needs and personality. Whether your pup is full of energy or prefers a slower pace, I’m happy to match their rhythm — from active walks to quiet downtime. My husband and I work full-time, and our schedules allow us to care for dogs during early afternoons through the evenings on weekdays, as well as full days on weekends. We team up to provide consistent, loving attention for your dog. Safety and trust mean a lot to us. Our girls have grown up around dogs and always show so much love and care — they’ll stop every dog we see just to say hi, give hugs, and plenty of belly rubs. We have a fenced yard where dogs can safely play, and no other dogs in our home, so your pup will have plenty of space and attention. We always follow the owner’s instructions to keep up with their usual routine — activity, meals, naps, and all — to make sure your dog feels comfortable and at home. We know dogs need both chill time and playtime, so we make sure there’s plenty of space to relax and feel comfortable, plus lots of chances to get active and use their energy. As a family, we work together to give your dog the best care possible, treating them like one of our own.

“We were nervous leaving our 5 month old puppy for the first time. Anne sent daily photos and updates. We were very pleased with Anne and would highly recommend her.”
