About: At Williamson Animal Care and Control I volunteered walking dogs. I also received significant training in dog behavior and dog walking. After retiring from my career, I started my pet sitting and dog walking career. I took care of a rescued Great Pyrenees multiple times during the week and frequently overnight trips for over two years. I recently moved back to the Fort Wayne area from Franklin, TN. Three of my previous dog clients have shown interest in having me come back to stay with their dogs when they’re out of town for more than a couple days. Pet sitting and dog walking are my primary responsibilities along with taking care of my two cats. I have a very flexible and available schedule. I take pride and making sure that the client’s home is as good if not better when I entered. I will walk the dog, feed or treat, make sure the water bowl is full and also if appropriate snuggles.
“He’s been very communicative and awesome with my dog Vera! He takes her for walks and to the dog park which is great for her. We like him a ton!”
About: I have handled dogs my entire life. Have even rescued a stray in the winter and is a family dog living life now! Have a caring passion for pets and love seeing them happy! I am available anytime before 2 pm and after 11pm weekdays and most times on weekends. I am very flexible and can do same day bookings! I have 2 caring dogs at home with me that love new friends! Also I make sure pets feel safe and happy. I give them food and water, take them on walks, play with them, and follow any special instructions from the owner.
About: I love dogs and have been caring for them since I was 12. With me, your pet will have the “Cool Aunt” as their sitter (with a couple dad jokes slid in as well). We’ll be the Paw-fect match! I’m currently working full time, so on top of meeting all of your pet’s needs, we’ll be taking advantage of long walks in good weather or doing fun activities such playing hide in seek or watching a relatable film for movie night (Beethoven is my favorite!) My services of care will depend on your instructions and boundaries for your fur baby along with your home. I take pride in doing what I do best whilst making sure every expectation you have of me is met.
“Stephanie is a dog whisperer 😊”
About: I've worked with dogs, cats, and other animals since middle school. I've done short- and long-term sitting for dogs varying from a weekend with a mixed breed rescue to a month with a purebred Australian shepherd. I owned an elderly Maltese for three years, until he crossed the rainbow bridge. Currently I do have a limit of dogs of maximum 35 pounds. I am prepared and willing to work with training routines. I studied cats extensively in seventh grade in my attempt to persuade my parents into owning one. (It worked.) As either a cat owner or sitter, I've been working with cats ever since. I have a beautiful little black and white princess named Jane, with an affinity for burrowing in blankets and stealing pens, and a wild child named Lizzie who has never met a stranger. I offer dog and cat walks, animal feeding, water changes, litter box changes, playtime, and brushing. I'm open to pets outside the usual; anything except spiders. My availability is very flexible right now. Send me a message to get a request started! Currently I do gig work and have a very open and flexible schedule. Most Sundays I spend out of town, but feel free to message to discuss custom scheduling. Safety and care in a pet's home is reliant first and foremost on learning the family's routines and location of important items. Every family in every home has a system and routines in place; following those is the smoothest way to keep the animals happy and safe. In my home, I care for two young adult cats I own, as well as foster kittens. Right now, I have a group of four kittens to care for until they reach their goal weight for their spay/neuter surgeries. I do practice robust hygiene routines to ensure no potential illness is transmitted between the fosters and my cats.
“Elena was fantastic with my old girl. I know my dog can be very shy when meeting new people and I heard she warmed right up! She was excited every time Elena came to pick her up for a walk. Thank you for putting my mind at ease and taking such good care of Chloe. ?❤️”
About: As a person who used to live with older dogs, I became accustom to giving them medications or helping them with their treatments. I also love puppies (who doesn’t?) and am willing to spend time attempting to train them. Besides dogs, I am a proud indoor bunny mom. I find it highly important to understand a rabbit’s needs, behaviors and risks. I am home for the summer in Fort Wayne, Indiana and would love to check in on your pets to pass the time! My summer job allows me to pick up extra gigs like dog sitting. I have two large dogs. I feed, walk, and play with them daily. I also have two indoor bunnies. I interact with them as much as I can since they are very social creatures.
About: Extensive experience working with dogs. Able to administer medications. Will walk any size or age. I will always love them like they are my own. I just moved back to Fort Wayne, so I am available all day every day to hang out with your pups! Playing or just chilling. I recently moved back to Fort Wayne, so I am available all day everyday to hang out with your pups making sure they are loved.
“Shari is so sweet! She was great with my two big dogs. Of course most people get scared when big dogs are barking at them, but she was comfortable to just let them do their barking and growling circling her until they realized she was friendly. Very gentle and genuine with my dogs. She left a note thanking me for letting her walk my furbabies and told me how they did. Generous touch. I'm definitely going to book with her again!!”
“We were hesitant to leave Blue w “just anyone”, but after meeting with Jennifer and seeing how she interacted with her helped us get over the hump. Jennifer was totally awesome and my wife and I were able to enjoy our time away, knowing that Blue was in very capable hands. Will use her services again??, and again?”
About: I take care of my brothers dogs and friends dogs while they’re out of town. I also have a cat and a Doberman that want love and attention constantly. I love all animals and I haven’t met one that doesn’t love me! I recently started my own business and I’m still building my clientele, so I have random days/times of the day that I’m free to spend walking dogs! I love animals and exercise Looking forward to walking pets and dropping by for check ins if you need me to! I love dogs and cats and have tons of experience with both
About: I have always lived with dogs and cats, I adore pets and work with them daily as a groomer in training. I work well with all breeds I've met so far, large and small. I'm excited to see pets from 8am-5:30pm, and later on special request! I also now offer in home baths, and brushing services for friends with longer coats too! After conversation with the client regarding possible safety risks, I am confident in my ability to carefully watch pets, throughout the pets being in my care.
About: I have been pet sitting for neighbors, family, friends, and referrals for 10 years. I have experience with dogs of all breeds, cats, and reptiles. I also have experience with deaf, blind, and elderly dogs. I’m currently working PRN as a nurse so I have plenty of time to hang out with your babies! I’m available from early morning to late evening on most days :) The majority of my pet sitting experience has involved staying in other people’s homes to care for their fur babies while they are on vacation.
About: Since I was born, I’ve been around dogs, cats, reptiles, and even birds! I grew up with my parents breeding Rottweilers and pit-bulls, so I have experience with dogs that are considered to be “aggressive” in others’ eyes. I have been the primary trainer and caretaker for every pet I’ve owned since I was a child. I have a very maternal nature with animals. I currently have 2 dogs (Shiba Inu and Chihuahua) as well as 3 cats (one being a rescue kitten). My partner has also been fostering all types of animals for about 5 years. I have no biases when it comes to animals. They are all deserving of love and care, and I am dedicated to giving your fur baby the best care so that they never feel lonely away from you. I am currently not working, so now I am extremely flexible! Caring for animals is something I would like to dedicate all my time to. All of my animals are properly socialized and get along with every animal they come into contact with, if you would like your animal(s) to be socialized, I have no problem bringing them around my animals. If keeping them separated is something you prefer, I have space for them and a fenced in backyard for them to run around in safely. I also have a very keen attention to detail so I will make sure that your pet gets all the medications or attention that it needs to be happy and healthy!
