Another amazing sit by Anna and her lovely family - our cocker spaniel Holly has had the best fortnight with these guys with lots of adventures and endless amounts of love and attention! Highly recommend as 5-star house and pet sitters - thank you Anna - hope to see you again!
Lisa and her friend Sara were amazing pet and house sitters! We can't say enough great things about them - our pets were so calm when we returned from our trip and so happy... Lisa and Sara kept in touch with us regularly and sent us beautiful photos of the pets as well. We returned to a spotless home, fresh flowers and a note with polaroids of Soy, Calvin and Chickie! We absolutely loved hosting Lisa and Sara and highly recommend them, they are some of the best sitters we have ever had and they're welcome back anytime!!
Monique was very nice and easy to schedule with. She sent us pictures of our dog Maisie while we were away, which we enjoyed seeing. Maisie was well cared for and had gotten plenty of exercise by the time we got home. The house was spotless, which was lovely to come home to! She had taken the trash and recycling bins out, even though we hadn’t mentioned them to her before we left. She made sure to let us know if anything was amiss so there were no surprises when we returned. Would definitely recommend her as a pet and house sitter for others. :)
Great pet care. The house was clean and tidy. The sitters had great communication. Would recommend again!
Kyle was a great house sitter and pet sitter for us. We had a good dialogue prior to him sitting for us, and we also did a short walkthrough the week before. Kyle formed a great bond with our dog Charlie and also took good care of our rabbit Poppy. A couple of minor issues came up with systems in our home due to an unexpected power outage, and Kyle was quick to connect with us and then was able to work 1:1 with the service providers to resolve the issues. We look forward to working with Kyle again.
Early in 2023 I went searching for a sitter to sit with our Lizzie for a month. I found Lori during my search and I am so happy I did. Lori’s reviews are all five star and I can fully attest as to why. Lori was so friendly and kind and I could tell from the moment she met Lizzie that she would take great care of her. I received daily pictures of her and Lizzie snuggling and I couldn’t have been happier knowing my girl was receiving a lot of love. Lori left our home in wonderful shape (probably better than I left it for her). She took great care and was very conscientious of all my plants. We even came home after a very long day of travel to some wonderful chicken soup. Lori will take wonderful care of your home and your precious pet. Do not hesitate to contact her for your pet sitting needs. I already have her booked for 10/2024 so don’t try and get her then!!!😁
I could not have asked for a better first time sitter experience! Terry & Vinnie were absolutely wonderful people. They took stellar care of my beloved pets and my home. Their communication with me was enough that I felt perfectly at ease during my time away and in turn, they were super responsive if I contacted them. My pets were relaxed and happy when I returned!
5 stars? Minimum, seriously, Tyler exceeded our expectations and we are DEMANDING when it comes to caring for our 4 pups! Fortunate to meet Tyler in person about a month prior, instant rapport, and she was basically born surrounded by animals. Professional high energy, and enthusiastic love for animals! We asked Tyler "Why the heck would you drive 1.5 hours from Nashville to hang in our small town?" Tyler replied "Have had animals all my life, current Nashville location cannot, I need my animal fix!" Tyler arrived the evening prior to our departure, met our 4 dogs, the eldest is special needs with bad hips, the youngest a wild child 2 year old husky, and in the 15 years of having family or friends assist with our pup sitting, this is the most positive and enthusiastic our dogs have been to anyone outside our home. It was an instant love affair. Our dogs are so spoiled with mom & dad working from home, nearly 24/7 attachment, they typically become depressed, despondent, ornery, you name it, even if we go out for 2-3 hours. The 3 instances where we did an overnight trip or the like, they acted as if we had abandoned! When we came home after 3 nights away (was going to be 5 but business cut our first vacation in 10 years short), when we walked in the 4 of them looked up as if to say "Oh your home how nice" and were content as if we had never left. That is a FIRST in 15 years. Not only did Tyler provide us with updates, photos, messages, etc. she organized (we did not require nor ask) our complete chaos of a large kitchen drawers, pots pans, you name it, it was the most organized we have been in a LONG time. Our eldest handicapped Husky, usually has accidents in the house at least once a day. The youngest 2 year old loves to chew up the carpet, toys, bedding. Under Tyler's watch, no accident, no chewing, and total happiness from a new affectionate friend! This was our VERY FIRST Trusted House/Pet sitter foray, and Tyler far exceeded or expectations, and set a standard that will be difficult for others to follow. Allowing a total stranger to watch your beloved pets and home is a serious undertaking, and Trusted House/Pet provided us with a rock star. Family and friends alike joke how we are over the top with our dogs, and Tyler did not bat an eye, and provided a seamless transition of puppy affection and well being. This review may seem over the top to some, all I can say is this is 100% true to life, and other Home/Pet owners are welcome to reach out to us for further referral. Those who are able to work with Tyler depending on her work/travel schedule would be well served to invite her without hesitation. Tyler, THANK YOU for allowing us to enjoy a few nights for the first time in a decade! Dean & Diana Smith
Kuldip exceeded all the expectations we had from a Zeewoi. She took over from another sitter when we got stuck out of country due to a family emergency. A highly energetic person yet extremely organized, she easily matched the energy level of my 2-year-old Border Collie Pavo. She not only exercised him multiple times every day, but even him bought him new doggy toys and treats (much appreciated!). She got along very well with our neighbor and with their combined help Pavo got a much needed doggy bath! With her by my dogs side we were worry-free and able to focus on our family needs. Lastly, she left a pleasant surprise when we came back home. Our home looked squeaky clean and beautifully organized. Kuldip is a gem of a pet sitter and we would love to have her back for our fur baby without any hesitation. I highly recommend her!
Leo and Susi were wonderful pet sitters for our two cats. They were responsive, communicative, and gracious guests, and the I swear the house was cleaner when we got home than we left it. The cats were very contented. Any time we leave we will be checking in with them first. Such a pleasure to work with.

Emery did an amazing job with our zoo (8 cats, a foster dog, fish, and our bearded dragon). She sent daily updates (with pictures), was super responsive, took great care of our house (she even took care of our plants), and really put in the extra effort to make sure our foster dog Archie was comfortable (there were a lot of fireworks while she watched him). She was extremely flexible and easy to talk to (despite my neurotic tendencies). We'll definitely be using her in the future!
Our Golden doodle LOVED his stay at Critter Sitters. George came home completely exhausted, which was really nice for us after a day of traveling. Emery and her daughter are absolutely experts in the field of animal care. They gave us some free tips on dog allergies and how to keep George's separation anxiety under control. We will definitely be going back and would recommend them to anyone. Please understand that this is a one-person business that is mostly being run out of the kindness of her heart. This is NOT a massive pet complex with multiple helpers/rooms/etc. If you want a truly personalized experience, this is the way to go!
We were in town with our 9 month old puppy due to a death in the family and needed a sitter for him during the funeral. We contacted Emery with only 5 hours notice and she took in our puppy. He had never been left with a stranger before like that, but when I went to pick him up after the service he almost seemed reluctant to leave. We especially appreciated the pictures we received while he was there. If we lived in Fort Wayne, we would DEFINITELY bring our dog to Emery any time we needed a sitter!
Hired Emery to feed/water our community cats every day while we were on vacation. She communicated and sent pictures almost every day and kept us in the loop. I would recommend Emery to others and would hire her again.
She's great! First time taking my 8month old puppy and definitely will be going back! Emery was super flexible and accommodating to us and our situation!
Emery is Awesome!! Very accommodating, my German felt right at home at her place, she truly cares about the wellbeing of all the animals in her care. Highly Recommend!!
The reason I gave three stars is because she wasn't available when I needed a sitter. That rating has nothing to do with anything else. I don't have first hand experience with her services. I hear she's a great person who loves animals. That's why I called her.
"We always try to treat the visiting pets like we would want ours to be treated in someone else's house. :)" this is a text I received while Emery cared for our Dobie..it's the truth! Heartfelt care!
SHE'S THE BEST IN TOWN AND SHE REALLY LOVES THE ANIMALS LIKE HER OWN!! SHE MAKES THEM FEEL AT HOME, VERY FLEXIBLE AND SHE KEEPS YOU UPDATED AND SEND PICS! GREAT PRICES GREAT BUSINESS I WOULDN'T CHOOSE ANYONE ELSE OTHER THAN HER!! 😍😀😀 YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! …
Emery is fantastic! Professional, conscientious, helpful. She had been my go-to dig and house sitter for years!
The Paws n Claws team is amazing! Customer service and hospitality are top notch. I have recently experienced a different pet care company, and I’ve never appreciated Paws n Claws more! I am confident our two small dogs receive great care each time they are there for play care or grooming! Each team member is so welcoming and they offer fun and festive events and opportunities for our pets.
Paw's-n-Claw's Pet Care Palace is phenomenal! They are a small business that is locally owned and operated, and they truly care about all of their animals. Not to mention their staff are wonderful and very friendly! Theo, our Australian Shepherd, has been in their DayPlay program since he was a young puppy, probably 5-6 months old. I can't believe he will be turning two in July. He can't wait to celebrate his 2nd birthday with his doggy friends this summer at the Palace! Paw's-n-Claw's Pet Care Palace does a wonderful job of engaging the animals through mental stimulation, exercise, and different types of play. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone look for a full-service care center for their pet. We have used their DayPlay and boarding services, and will be starting grooming soon as well. Check out Paw's-n-Claw's Pet Care Palace today! I promise you won't regret it!
It’s very hard for me to find a kennel that I can trust with my dog, but after having Cola stay here a few times, I know she is well taken care of, loved, and most importantly safe while I’m away. The facility is very clean and I like how it’s on the smaller side. Also the employees have been nothing but awesome! I have already recommended this place to my friends and family 😊
This doggie daycare is by far the best anywhere around. Our girl went there for day play and boarding. They watch them closely and noticed things like medical issues an owner might not have known. Peace of mind for sure. No stress boarding why? Because boarding where she has day play means not a scary deal, it's her home away from home.
Brought my dog here in a time crunch sort of, bc my dog sitter cancelled so didn't have a lot of time to find other places. I was informed at check in, the day of taking my dog in, that it was going to be double since it was a weekend. (They didn't tell me that When I booked it and did the walk thru, so I was pretty shitty but didn't really have a choice to go anywhere else) So I paid almost 130$ for basically one night. If they would have told me when I had called that it was going to be double I would have tried to find somewhere else to take her. Staff was friendly but won't be going back.
Paw's-n-claws is amazing. You can see how much they love dogs just by the pictures alone. On sunny days, they are all outside playing and on rainy days, they are lounging inside looking out the window. Perfect vacation spot for the pups
Good 1st experince with boarding my dog with them. I will use them again.
We have gone to groomers all over the Michigan and Indiana areas for 11 years. Paws n Claws does the most professional looking job of anyone we have tried. We have had Newfoundlands and Bernese Mountain Dogs, so grooming has been a consistent part of our lives. They are not the cheapest, but when our dog comes back, he looks like he is ready for the show ring. I can tell he enjoys it as well.
Took my dog here for a "Consult." They said she was too anxious and I should try Von Aries. So I told them I have been taking my dog (German Shepherd) to Von Aries since she was 1 year old. They love her as does Ruff House. The lady proceeded to tell me as I was about to drop her off that they have lost a German Shepherd before. I was also shocked their kennels are stacked on top of one another with a very tight squeeze. Apparently, they are not familiar with the German Shepherd breed. This breed is very anxious at first but they can eventually settle down. I also have a friend who took their dog to this place and they told her the same thing that her dog was too anxious. Just so unprofessional. I tell everyone to never bring their dog here. **in response to their comment: I like many others take my dog to other places because one place might be booked so I need to find another. To which isn’t a bad thing. Nope I got nothing confused. You told me my dog was too anxious and should try Von Aries to which I said she’s been going there for awhile. Then your worker was surprised. Now you’re stating my dog showed aggression? When first it was anxiousness? As soon as she stepped in the smallest room known to man to which you call your “kennels”. Dogs that were stacked to the ceiling in kennels were growling and barking at her. Sorry dogs bark 🤷🏻♀️ It’s apparent in any of your low review comments you take no responsibility of anything negative happening. Unprofessional.
This is the only place in town we trust to take care of our little old babies. They staff is very friendly, and they took very good care of our 15yo pug mix and dachshund. The pug has hip problems, and after the reception area everything is level. You can also get add-ons like a Disney movie night with popcorn as well as personal snuggle time for nervous/attachment issue pups. We always get daily pictures. They never forget to send them, but the timing varies
She came to my apartment to cut my cat's hair and to trim his nails. He looks so much better now. She is very nice and great with my baby. You should definitely use her for all your pets.
Furever My Friend does an amazing job. My fur-babies are ok going there no issues when dropping off and they are groomed perfectly. Which isn’t always a task when you have one that’s not very friendly. . Also with my schedule she works with me to make sure i can make the appt time. I would recommend Furever My friend to anyone, especially if you’re wanting someone who takes that extra step to make sure you and your fur baby are content.
We had a great experience with her! She did an amazing job on our portidoodle. She did a perfect teddy bear cut. Very friendly and our puppy smelled amazing. We will be back!
Love bringing Sadie here. Brittani is very very good with my baby girl and also very accommodating with my work schedule. Really appreciate you taking care of my doggo.
Awesome, Brittani had came out and did my clients dogs nails. Wonderful job very professional attitude even after my dog happen to snip her on the hand. She was still very respectful and finished the job. His nails were perfect. Will definitely use recommend to anyone. Thank you Brittani
Brittani was excellent with our little dog, Duke. She gave us lots of updates so we could see how he was doing. Duke has trust issues, but she managed to win him over! She was also great about watering plants, checking the mail, & taking out the trash. Very trustworthy! I would definitely use her services again & recommend her to friends.
Wasnt sure what to expect but groomer knew just how to handle my grumpy dog. Great cut at good price point. I will use her again!
They did an absolute amazing job, they know exactly what they are doing. I highly recommend this place!!!
Had a great experience was nice n fast. Handle my son with great care
Midnights Pet sitting is the best! Arianna has great communication and updates when pet sitting. She has an attention to details and goes above and beyond to take care of pets! She gives compassion and love as if each pet were her own. Her reliability and trust is the key to her success! I absolutely recommend her services for any pet needs!!
I use the drop in visits with her, and the boys (my two dogs) get so excited when she comes! She does a great job with them. She also has a flexible schedule to try and meet everyone's needs! Highly recommend!
Arianna has been coming over to take care of our Donna for us for the last 8 months & she's been an absolute doll!. Our Donna dog is so shy & scared & she took to Arianna very quickly. She sends photo updates & gives lots of love and treats. Shes always great with communicating & shes so generous. Our whole household adores her! She also brings in my Amazon packages while I'm at work 🤣🤣 We work long 10 hour days 5-6 days a week. Without Arianna we wouldn't be able to balance our busy work schedules and our dog. She makes it possible for me to give my all to my career without worrying about my baby at home. 💕💕 I recommend her to any & everyone I see in need of a sitter
I recently used Midnights pet sitting for my two cats and my doggo for a week. I absolutely loved the daily updates! I definitely felt reassured while on vacation that my pets were well taken care of. Definitely trust worthy. It's always a risk letting someone you don't know into your home but with some great references I knew I could trust them and you should too! If I could rate higher than 5 stars I would. My doggo has anxiety when it comes to boarding and home is home. It's where she's comfortable. So to have someone come and take care of her while I'm gone is way better than any boarding.
We met Arianna about 8 months ago when we realized our work schedules were too busy and we needed help with our pupper, Donna. My fiance found Arianna's pet sitting page and she got us penciled into her schedule quickly and she's been amazing ever since. Thank you Arianna for taking care of our sweet girl while we're at work!
I currently have 3 dogs and 3 cats. My dogs range from 1-12 years old! I work 10 hour shifts which is a long day for dogs. I use Midnights Pet Sitting for daily drop ins so my dogs can get out for a little bit! I absolutely love her services!!! The rates are super reasonable and I trust her with my animals. I have such anxiety leaving my animals. I’m so glad I found Midnights Pet Sitting!
Arianna is the best and always so reliable! My dog absolutely loves her and so do we. Very reasonable prices and an overall great experience each time! Highly recommend 💗 …
She is amazing with our dog Milo! We know when he is with her, he's in great hands!! He just loves her!!!
Anna is reliable and took such good care of my fur baby while I was out of town!!
Good area
I am so happy that I found this service in Facebook. We had a 6 day vacation and I was concerned about my cats and the medications that one cat needed, that they were older. I contacted Genevieve about situation. She instantly made me comfortable about leaving my pets in her care. A message and pictures were sent daily and much appreciated. Needless to say I was very satisfied with the services provided. I will use this service for future vacations to come. Thank you Genevieve for all you do !!!
Fuzz Friends is fabulous. My cats are shy so not so much with the adorable pictures yet, but we've gone from not seeing them at all, to getting in a few pets each visit. We've used them a half a dozen times already, and every time Genevieve has been prompt, and she clearly cares about animals.
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Genevieve! Our Shiba Inu, Flinn, had developed a real fear of walking on the leash after a difficult experience, and Genevieve has been so patient and dedicated in helping him overcome that fear. She’s gone above and beyond to make sure he feels safe, comfortable, and supported, tailoring each walk to his needs. When Flinn got loose and was lost for over an hour, Genevieve didn’t hesitate to step in and help me find him—something I’ll always be grateful for. Genevieve’s website is fantastic and user-friendly, and she takes amazing pictures of Flinn during his walks, which we always look forward to seeing. Her personalized messages after each session are such a nice touch, letting us know exactly how Flinn did. The cute icons showing if/how much he pottied are super helpful and make us feel more connected to his progress. We’re so lucky to have found Genevieve, and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a truly caring, professional, and reliable dog walker! Below is an actual photo taken by her-so cute
Currently on a trip away from home and it’s great to receive updates with photos of my babies! Fuzz Friends has gone above and beyond, even going outside their normal service area to provide excellent care to my half dozen pets. I would definitely recommend them and will continue to use the many services Fuzz Friends offers!
I work long hours and need my boy walked while I’m away. Fuzz Friends is always keeping me updated and his walk and in the photos you can tell he is happy. Would definitely recommend to any pet parent to use Fuzz Friends.
Genevieve and Fuzz Friends are absolutely the best. The care and attention she gave my dog, Abby, while I was away on a ten day trip were excellent. She fed, walked and gave her love and attention twice per day. She never missed a beat. I received photos and updates after every visit. She really paid attention to Abby and quickly understood her ways and met her needs. I will happily hire Genevieve and Fuzz Friends for all my future dog care needs. She really took the worry out of leaving my dog while I was gone and that is a very good feeling! Thank you, Genevieve!
I’ve been using Fuzz Friends Pet Care Services for just over a month now. Genevieve is amazing! My dog loves their walks together! The app is super easy to use for booking and modifying reservations and makes it really easy to communicate back and forth.
Fuzz Friends has been walking our dogs on a daily basis for over a year. Chip and Archie could not be happier!! The service provided is reliable and tailored to the specific needs of our dogs. Every time a service is provided we receive feedback. This is very reassuring and it is fun to see our pups enjoying their day. We highly recommend Fuzz Friends!!
I'm a new puppy owner and this service has provided lots of comfort for me as I have had to return to the office. Genevieve is excellent with my puppy, she's on time, and communicates very well! She sends pics of her visit and thorough notes. And the scheduling/messaging app is easy and efficient! Thanks, Genevieve!
Update: Genevieve is still walking Charlie (down to one dog for now) and service is still top notch. Her communication and flexibility just add to the experience. She is very knowledgeable and I appreciate her being willing to answer questions about “dog stuff”. And she’s just a delightful and kind individual💕 Absolutely recommend Fuzz Friends with all my heart! Genevieve is so sweet and trustworthy and loves on my two pups like they are her own. I really enjoy getting updates and photos during my work day showing me the walks they have been on, as well as the peace of mind that they are not just sitting in their kennels all day while I am at work.
This place is truly amazing! They love and care for my dog like she's one of their own. She has the best time with her daycare friends and is well loved when we need to board her. They have so many creative add-ons offered throughout the year, like an ice cream party in the summer and Thanksgiving dinner around the holiday. Every staff member is attentive and helpful. 10/10 recommend!
We have 3 Golden Retriever girls, and they have an absolute blast every time they go to daycare or stay over while we are away. Our dogs have been going to Pampered Pets for more than 5 years now for daycare, birthday parties, lodging and one very happy Cancer Free party. The staff is all around amazing, very friendly and helpful, and our dogs love them enough to drag us in through the doors! They have a wide range of rooms instead of runs for lodging, which allows us to board our spoiled dogs with peace of mind that they would be comfortable. Special callout for Amber, who loves our dogs as much as they love her! Easily the best place for our dogs in Fort Wayne, would highly recommend!
we LOVEEE our pampered pets family! My 5 year old boxer biggie loves going to daycare here two-three days a week. The staff goes above and beyond to keep these dogs happy and busy, and on top of that they are all so kind! They’re amazing about last minute openings for him as well if I end up having an unexpected hectic day. We’ve found our forever place to bring our fur baby, and future pups :)
Holly is very kind and has helped me with my dog Arthur quite a bit since I moved to Fort Wayne. She always send me a picture of my pup when she's walking him. Highly recommended. Very easy to schedule with, and extremely communicative.
Holly is a great pet sitter and so very helpful! She came while my husband and I were on vacation for 1.5 weeks. We have 3 cats and theyre a bit... needy. One requires two types of medication for anxiety and another special wet food/medicine combination every couple days for arthritis. Both choose to use the space outside the litter box semi regularly due to their issues. It was great knowing that they, and the third cat, were all taken care of and the litter box area clean when we came home. She even sent us pictures throughout the time!
Have used Paws First before and we were beyond happy. We had never had a dog sitter come to our home, so we were nervous about having someone come over but quickly were at ease with the updates and pictures. Our fur baby was in perfect hands. Would highly recommend Paws First for your precious pets.
Have only used once so far, but was very impressed with all the updates from Paws First during home visits and the the detailed report left in home after visit. Pets seemed happy when we returned home not stressed from being boarded.
I recently moved to Fort Wayne and used the service without knowing the company at all! It was a great service, trustful and caring , thanks very much , will do it anytime again👍 …
Friendly staff and willing to work with you on pick up.
