I always feel confident that my baby is safe and well taken care of when he’s in her care. He always comes home happy and good and tired from playing and being loved on in her home.”
“Bentley has been going to Kristen's on regular basis since January. She is our favorite dog sitter. Bentley loves going there. It is like his second home. He has many regular friends and gets plenty of needed play time. She does wonderful job with photos and updates. We feel comfortable with leaving Bentley with her anytime!”
“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”
“We were so pleased by the care received from Mariana and Mark. They treated our girls like their own. Huge relief when you can find a sitter that’s reliable when traveling.”
“Allison and Nick were so great, you can tell how much they love animals!! We got lots of good updates and they took such good care of our pup. Their big backyard with a tall fence is perfect. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone!”
“Rebecca did a wonderful job providing loving care to my Shih Tzu. She sent to me daily updates and photos; it was so reassuring to know my pup was in the hands of an attentive caregiver.”
“We would definitely use Agnatha again. Our girl doesn't like when we leave her with other people but she did really good with Agnatha! Agnatha was very responsive when I messaged her, she set up a meet and greet well in advance of our trip, and sent photos and updates everyday we were gone!”
“Alex and Jayce were wonderful with our dog. So welcoming and very responsive. Our dog had a great time playing with their dogs. They sent great pictures and we could tell our dog was comfortable at their house. Would recommend to friends and family and will use them again!”
“I can’t even begin to say enough great things about how ABSOLUTELY AMAZING Natalie is!! From start to finish she made not only our boy Oso feel comfortable, but us as well. She communicated with pictures daily of our boy and how great of a time they were all having together!! If your in the Fort Wayne or surrounding areas and, like us, are on the fence about boarding rest assured you’ve found on of THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS RIGHT HERE!! Thank you so so much for the care and everything you did to make our first time boarding our pet the best experience possible !”
“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.”
“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!”
“Emily did a wonderful job watching our 8 month old Golden Retriever puppy - it was our first time to board him and a little tough to do. She sent us several pictures over his 2 night stay - he was romping in her fenced in back yard with two other younger dogs, having a great time. (Bailey misses his new friends!). We will definitely have Emily watch Bailey again!”
“It was such a blessing to find Anne because I needed to leave my Lady for the first time for 2 weeks . It would be stressful for my dog to travel abroad on a very long trip. So as soon as I met Anne I knew it would be her I would choose to take care of Lady. I was so happy and delighted during these days . Every day I received pictures and updates about her. I saw Lady was fine and very well taken care of.I strongly recommend Anne she made my trip so peaceful and enjoyable. ❤️”
“Heather was a wonderful sitter for my 11 month old puppy. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up. She was communicative and sent me photos and updates. I would definitely use her again.”
“April was very accommodating with our dog ! We scheduled a meet and greet and found time for me to do a trial boarding day before our week long vacation! We feel very safe with our senior dog under her care !”
“Excellent care! My cat and dog stayed with Tiffany for a few days, and my dog came back smelling like lavender, which was super nice. She took very good care of my fur babies and was a strong communicator through and through. I highly recommend!”
“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.”
“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”

“Edmy and her husband were so great and we appreciated them letting us book with a week’s notice. They took very good care of our kitties, even giving medicine and checking their waters and asking about the litter boxes. We would definitely book with them again!”
“Amara was amazing! Even got my reclusive cat Soeren to come out for treats. Lily, of course, was her usual extroverted self and came out for lovies. So sad we only got to try her services once, but we will definitely recommend her to friends.”

About: Hi I'm Xaviana, I'm 29years old I absolutely love dogs, me and my boyfriend actually have a pit named tank he is our baby. I started house sitting dogs about a 4 1/2 ago , it's something that I have enjoyed doing over the years. I'm trying to hopefully build more shelters for dogs, to at least get a lot of stray dogs off the streets. Also I want to prevent a lot of the animal abuse and try to get them into safe homes . Dogs are like people to me they deserve love and also a home and someone to care for them. They deserve the best and I'm hoping that I can possibly make a career out of this one day. My plan is to save all the money that I get from dog sitting and donate it to the animal shelters to help and improve their living situations. Well I hope you guys will choose me to sit your dogs I feel like I'm the perfect candidate. I work third shift so I have open availability during the day to check your pets take them fro walks feed them and give them a little bit of play time I treat them as if they are my fur babies love and care for them just as their owner would I definitely make sure they are feed taken out for bathroom trip give them some time to run around play fetch

About: Animals have always had a special place in my heart. Growing up on a farm, I was surrounded by creatures big and small—everything from conures to bison. From an early age, I learned not just how to care for animals, but how to truly respect them. That foundation deepened over the years into a lifelong appreciation for the bond we share with our animal companions. Adopting my dog Uschi was life-changing—she taught me about unconditional love, loyal companionship, and even nudged me toward a healthier lifestyle. That experience reinforced my commitment to providing pets with the same love and care I give my own. I understand how important it is to feel confident when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. That’s why I prioritize consistency, comfort, and safety. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, respect any dietary needs, and make sure they feel calm and cared for every step of the way. I can’t wait to run, play, and give your sweet baby the love they deserve! I currently work remote at my own pace, so I have full availability any time of day, morning or over night. Complete flexibility to your schedule. My overnight stays are flexible and can be tailored to your pet’s specific needs. I’m happy to take care of small home tasks like bringing in the mail or taking out the trash—just let me know what you'd like. We can also go over feeding schedules, walk routines, and note any areas that are off-limits to ensure everything runs smoothly. I understand that separation anxiety is common, and I approach each visit with patience, empathy, and a calming presence. Your pet’s comfort and emotional well-being are my top priority, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, seen, and cared for in your absence. I’m also very mindful of pet nutrition—no treats or dietary changes will be made without your clear consent. I’m available for a wide range of time frames and am happy to adapt to your pet’s rhythm and routine, providing consistency, comfort, and a little extra love while you're away.
About: I have worked at many grooming and boarding places and am enrolled to become a vet tech. I know how to feed, provide medication, clean up, walk, and bathe animals. I also know how to trim nails, clean ears, and brush teeth if needed. Growing up I've always connected well with animals and I cannot wait to create a bond with your animal as well. I am very flexible with my schedule. I am able to take care of your animals anyday of the week. I also work at the zoo so whenever I'm not there I will be available. I would take care of your dog in the way you want. So if you want them to be crated or left out while in your home then I will definitely do that. I will also provide the same feeding and medication instructions that you list.
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: What sets me apart from other sitters is my comprehensive experience and specialized skills in pet care. I have extensive training in puppy care, including housebreaking, basic obedience training, and socialization techniques to ensure your young pet grows up well-behaved and happy. Additionally, I have a deep understanding of senior pet care, providing gentle and attentive support for older animals with specific health needs and mobility issues. My dedication to each pet's well-being, combined with my ability to handle a wide range of needs, makes me a reliable and exceptional choice for your pet's care. I am currently a SAHM (stay at home mom) so most of my time is spent indoors or running small errands. I am more than capable of being attentive to your pets needs. I provide personalized and attentive care for pets, whether in my home or in my client’s home. In my home, I ensure a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I maintain a consistent routine that includes regular feeding times, daily exercise, and plenty of play and socialization. I have a pet-friendly space with areas designated for rest, play, and training. I also prioritize hygiene, regularly cleaning feeding areas, toys, and bedding. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow the pet’s existing routine as closely as possible to minimize stress. I pay close attention to the pet’s specific needs and preferences, ensuring they receive the same level of care and affection they are accustomed to. I keep a clear line of communication with pet owners, providing updates and addressing any concerns promptly. My goal is to provide a seamless and stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners.

Cassandra made Banjo feel at home and kept him in a normal, relaxed environment and routine.”
