Dog Walking in Windswept, Fort Wayne

“Craig and Edmy are wonderful! We hired them for a second time to walk our dog during the day while I was out of town. We had some last minute schedule changes and they were incredibly helpful and accommodating. We will definitely be using them again for future trips!”

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.

About: I’m going to school to make a different in your fur babies lives. From training puppies to caring for seniors. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 4 and with my pursuing degree in animals science I hope to make a difference I only work weekends allowing me to care and play with your baby for long periods of times! I am Also in college with lots of night classes so it’s perfect for early morning potty, training and play routines as well as overnight visits monitoring and potty breaks I have spare crates and a sweet puppy myself with plenty of toys. I also go to public parks alot to help with enrichment. If needed I’m able to crate the babies in case of emergency as well as I have doggy seat belts for car rides!

About: I've had pets my whole life, I cannot remember a time where we didn't have animals in the home. From dogs and cats, to small animals and some reptiles! I also have experience working with a local pet store, which has given me wonderful insight on how to care better for each and every animal! I am a college student at Purdue University Fort Wayne, I am taking only a few summer classes and looking for some part-time work in the meantime. I miss my pets back home deeply, and think this is a great opportunity for me to help out others while also getting my furry cuddles in! I am a college student so I cannot offer services in my own home. But, I would take great care of your home while attending to your pets needs!

“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!!”

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.

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: 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: 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!

About: Hello! I love dogs and everything about them. I have a dog of my own who I recently trained to file his front nails! I enjoy playing in my backyard with him and recently have taken to making home made dog food and treats. I think it is fun to treat my dog like a family member. I am interested in learning about different breeds. I know how hard it is to find reliable and caring people who will treat your dog with the kindness s/he deserves. I would like to help reduce that stress and offer my services to those who are in need of quality dog care. I have experience with chickens, rabbits and guinea pigs as well. I have a flexible schedule and am available for drop ins at most hours, including early morning and late nights. I am central in the city and am close to most areas. I have a fenced in yard. My dog is crate trained. I walk my dog daily and give him the best foods and preventative meds.

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

“She was fantastic with our Winston. He took right to her and couldn't wait to see her everyday. She has a special gift with animals and it helped us out alot with our little guy. Very dependable and trustworthy pet sitter. I would recommend her to everyone. She was a 10 in our book.”

“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: I have been around dogs my whole life and taken care of dogs since I was about 10. Dogs are my life. They run my household and my only one rule with them is to love on them. I work from home so your pet will never be alone. I spent the last few years taking care of my senior dog who was almost 15 when she crossed the bridge. I still take care of another senior dog for my family. I work from home so your pet will always have someone. I will work around your schedule for feeding and medicine. I do ask that you bring their beds and toys so that they feel more comfortable. Fenced in yard with no children/ pets. I do not crate the dogs. I am still grieving my soul dog so this is my way of being around dogs and loving on them while my heart heals.

About: I have taken a wide variety of dogs from a Chihuahua to a German shepherd. Neighbors and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, give medications and play with their dogs. I have also stayed overnight servers different times. This has given a wide variety of experience with different cares and types of dogs. I am currently looking for part time summer jobs. I am fairly flexible and could work a variety of days and hours. I am able to pick up jobs at a short notice. I have a two weeks I would not be able to work but am free the rest of the summer. I am not currently in an apartment that would not suite dogs. I am comfortable and have experience with pet care in the home. I would be able to stay or night or visit throughout the day. I can walk, play and crate dogs if needed.
