“Evan is amazing and has been so caring and nurturing to our elderly pugs! She is great at giving us updates about how our pugs are doing and very reliable. I highly recommend her to care for your fur babies ? ?!!!!”

“Anabela is awesome! She was so helpful to me as a newbie to Rover and she took excellent care of our little pup. Anabela kept us posted about all her visits with photo updates, and she asked good questions to make sure that everything went smoothly. We enjoyed our time away so much more knowing that Pixie was in good hands!”

“I contacted Natalie for a last minute visit and she was able to drop-in and check on our three pups. They were all content and everything was in place. It gives us peace of mind knowing that we don't have to rush back from an outing, our pups are all happy and cared for.”

“Brooklyn is awesome. Takes great care of the house and me importantly Edmund, my dog. He now like for her in the guest room! Hahaha. I'd say he's happy with her service as well.”
“Tracy is the BEST! He’s punctual, he puts in plenty of time with my sick pet, he even notified us when it was obvious someone had been in our house (our roofer). Book with Tracy!”
“Elioenia was INCREDIBLE! She took us on with very short notice and was everything I could have hoped. Very communicative, an absolute pleasure to work with, and everything is perfect. She even brought in packages and pulled the trash cans up. The biggest thing though- the first night we were away there were some nervous stomachs apparently and our big dog had a very big, nasty accident on the carpet. If I didn’t know about it, I wouldn’t be able to find the spot. She cleaned it all up and shampooed that area. WAY above and beyond what could ever be expected and I don’t know what I could possibly say that would express my gratitude fully. Thank you, thank you, thank you Elioenia 🙏🏻.”

“I loved that Heather came to meet Farah and I. I could tell right away she was caring and very patient. Our cat sitter couldn't come to check in on Farah while we were on vacation due to unexpected health decline. Heather was willing to with very little notice. We were gone for 13 days and had Heather do a drop in for 11 days. Farah requires eye cleaning just about every day and is super picky about how clean her litter box is. She also hates getting her eyes cleaned and Heather did such a great job with her eye care. She made sure she had clean water each day too. Heather did the best job!! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl!!”

About: Hi! I’m Alicia. I’m a second grade teacher and lifelong Fort Wayne resident. I’ve had pets my entire life, but currently have none of my own, so I’m looking forward to babying yours this summer! I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets behind, so I’m grateful for the opportunity to offer them a quiet, kid-free, pet-free, low-stress environment to settle into while you’re away. I’m extremely reliable, caring, and patient. Whether your pet needs medication, a consistent routine, or extra time to warm up to someone, I’m happy to adjust to whatever works best for them (and for you). Whether I’m with them for a drop-in or overnight stay, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Plus, I love to take pictures and document our adventures, so you can expect regular updates and plenty of photos while you’re away. Feel free to reach out to set up a time to chat or schedule a meet and greet! As a teacher, my summers are especially flexible for drop-ins, daycare, and overnight stays. When school starts (August-May), I’m limited to before and after school drop-ins, but always open to schedule overnight stays at your house or mine especially on weekends or holidays! At my house, your pets will be the only pets in the home, so they’ll get all of the attention they deserve! My house is pet-proofed and I’m very committed to ensuring your pets are safe, loved, and well cared for.
About: My pets are family, and I’ll treat yours the same. I’ve shared my home with cats and dogs for years—currently an 8-year-old poodle and a 9-year-old maine coon cat. I’m experienced with giving daily medication, patient with seniors and puppies, and always gentle and kind. I’ve done lots of training with my own dog and have cared for friends’ and family’s pets many times. I’m responsible, flexible, and treat every animal with the same care I’d want for my own. My schedule is currently open and flexible, so I can easily fit pet care into my day and am happy to work around your pet's routine. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most at ease. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, medication, or just companionship, I approach every visit with patience and care. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and focused on keeping your pet safe, happy, and well-loved while you're away.
About: I grew up on a farm, we had dogs, cats, horses etc. I’ve also house sit for multiple people when I was a teenager to care for there horses and dogs. I’m currently working full time 7-330, I work fully remote, so I have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. I would be able to let them out whenever if they are staying in my home. I can easily crate your dog, I don’t have a fenced yard at my home, I have a long cable where my dog goes potty. I do know the importance of exercise for dogs who have this lifestyle, I walk my dog at-least once a day.
About: I believe every pet deserves a sitter who truly understands their unique needs. As a dedicated cat owner of over five years, I specialize in feline care, from reading their subtle body language to creating a comfortable, stress-free environment where they can thrive. My experience extends beyond just cats. I have over three years of professional experience caring for a variety of pets, including small to medium dogs. I've cared for a wide range of personalities, from playful puppies to calm seniors, and am confident in my ability to handle different temperaments and needs. Ultimately, my goal is to ensure your pets feel safe, secure, and loved in your absence. I'm not just here to feed and walk them—I'm here to give them the same level of care and attention they'd receive from you. My life is built around providing excellent care for pets. As a part-time graduate student, my schedule is quite flexible. My only standing commitment is my class on Wednesday and Thursday nights from 4:30 PM to 7:15 PM. This means I'm available most of the time to give your pet the consistent attention and care they need, from early morning to late evening. I am committed to providing the best possible care for your pet within the comfort of their own home. Whether it's a drop-in visit, a dog walk, or overnight boarding, I will make sure your pet's routine is respected and all their needs are met.
“Wes has done a fantastic job with drop-in visits for my goldendoodle. She's still in her puppy phase, and he makes time for walks and playing in the backyard. He has always been on-time and communicates well after each visit. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for dog care!”

“Samantha was really great with our cat, took wonderful care of her with food and snuggles. We appreciated the photos that Samantha sent us and and how detailed the report was about how the drop-in went. Will definitely reach out again when we go away again!”

“McKenna was awesome. We are to town just 2 weeks ago. It was so nice to find someone so loving for our 2 dogs and cat so we could join family at the lake today! Definitely will want McKenna for next time. Thank you!!”

“This is the second time I’ve booked with Lisa, I’m so thankful she could watch over my pets while I was out of town. She’s such a lifesaver! I’ll be using her again I’m sure!”

About: Hi!! I’m Taylor! Your dogs new bestie, I’ve owned dogs my whole life. I am also a healthcare provider taking a break right now. I am usually the first person my friends and family ask to watch their animals! I enjoy long dog walks, parks, dog snuggles and hanging out. I am home all day right now, looking to fill my time. I’d love to take your pet for walks to nearby parks, listen to Taylor Swift together or snuggle on the couch watching movies. I have a huge yard and a very sweet eight year old labradoodle that loves all dogs, and cats. All animals are welcome on the couch or bed! Whatever makes them comfortable.
“Amara was wonderful with my dog for a drop in! We have a very excitable 80lb dog and she was so great with her! She was communicative, professional, and I loved all the updates and photos of my pup from her visit! We will absolutely be using Amara again 🐾”

Hailey made me so comfortable leaving my cat for the first time. She shared her knowledge with cats, was eager to meet my cat during her initial visit, and was happy to send picture and updates while I was away. Would definitely use her again to take care of my cat.
