About: Hi there! I’m Destiny & have owned an array of furry friends over the years. I have never NOT had a pup and have owned many different breeds. Currently I own cattle dogs- an Aussie named Marley and Heeler/Collie mix named Sadie. They are 4, I trained them myself & they are extremely well behaved and socialized. I offer boarding, day care, dog walking, and can bathe your pup before returning them home to you. I can also pick up and drop off when needed. I can also house sit and pup sit if that is your need/comfortability as well. I am up for & encourage meet & greets before bookings if you would like to meet myself, the pups and/or see the house and our setup before hand! I work during the normal school year as a nursing instructor. I am off during the summer and am home FULL TIME to dedicate ALL of my time & attention to the fur babies! I promise your baby will be tuckered out, loved on and well fed (to your instructions of course!) Boarding at my home: safety is my top priority with animal to animal interaction and human to animal interaction. If pups need more alone time/privacy, they can be housed separately from my dogs at all times as we have multiple access points from our home to our fenced in yard and gate sectioning in our house. I do walks daily with them and am outside with them as well for the majority of the day. Our fenced in yard has a dog pool and I have BUCKETS of toys for them to play with! If your pup leans toward the spicier side & is more protective when it comes to their toys, food, or water please let me know and separation accommodations can be made, no problem. All breeds are different and each pup is different. I can also give medications topically, orally, injections etc. I can provide hourly updates through text, video call, phone calls, whatever you would like! At minimum I send a daily update. In your home: as a nurse, safety is always my top priority. I am also extremely clean and organized. I can maintain your daily routine with your pup so they don’t miss much while you are away. Again, meet and greets I encourage so you and especially your pup are comfortable meeting me and being in your home. I’ll be their make-shift auntie while you are away! Whatever update/care you want them to have, you got it- even FaceTime dates so you don’t have to miss them much.
“Excellent sitter. Took great care of my dachshund over the weekend. Big fenced in yard, lots of room for the dogs to play. He was so exhausted when he got back which is no easy feat! Great communication, loves dogs, easy to work with. Highly recommend!”
“Amanda & her family are so great! It was so comforting to know while we were gone for 9 days that both of our dogs were so well cared for. She followed our instructions explicitly and sent us daily updates. It’s clear her family treats the dogs they watch as a member of their family. We will absolutely use Amanda in the future for needs.”
“Would highly recommend! Tiller had a blast and it was nice to receive "pupdates" every day. Will definitely be using again! Tiller is exhausted from all the fun he had🩵”
“Jacob took the best care of our golden retriever, Nala, while we were gone for 8 days for our destination wedding! She loved playing in his fenced in backyard (which we saw in pictures he sent us). It was so nice leaving her knowing that Jacob works from home and would give her all of the attention outside of his working day (although I’m sure Nala tried to distract him during work too LOL). Couldn’t recommend anyone better to take care of your loved pet!!”
“Joseph was very approachable and open to the idea of taking on our 8 month old lab Beau. Beau is alot of work at this point . Joseph was very calm and up for a challenge. We interacted well together and our dogs for the most part wore each other out. I really appreciate his willingness to take Beau on short notice. He is definitely a five star care giver. Thank you Joseph for your amazing care!!”
“Very thankful for her wonderful service Caroline seemed to be right at home with her and I got plenty of updates while I was gone will definitely book again if I'm in the area”
“Our pup is turning 3 in June and we had never left her with anyone. We found Kessia and felt an instant connection. She confidently, but gently assured our pup and us that there was nothing to worry about, and her two pups instantly welcomed ours in playful banter. We have no concerns in leaving our pup with Kessia.”
“Madi and Anthony took great care of our dog during her boarding/overnight visit. They took great care to get to know us and her prior to her stay and provided us with ample info about their home environment so we could set our Lucy up for a successful visit. They provided regular updates with pictures and videos and we could tell she was comfortable and enjoying her time under their care. Our dog prefers a home environment over a boarding facility and Madi and Anthony’s home was the perfect place for her to relax while we were away.”
“8 paws way up!! My 2 dogs would highly recommend Chris and his crew for wearing them out and play, play, playing! Large fenced in yard and other dogs to socialize with - June and Carter will be visiting again!”
“Tyler and Caitlyn were great with our golden retriever Sadie. Sadie came home happy and tired. They also sent picture updates while we were gone. We will have them watch Sadie again in the future!”
“Was my first time using the app and they made it a great experience! This was Splash’s first time staying overnight at someone else’s house and they eased my mind with updates and pictures. Very accommodating and makes the process easy!”
“Rebecca was beyond outstanding from the moment we met I knew I pick the right sitter for my pup. She sent pics and took really good care of my pup while I was on vacation so thanks so much and I will definitely be booking again.”
“Tiffany was so amazing and sweet with my Furr baby ! She was super flexible with pick up and drop off and even sent me pictures while he stayed with her! Lives in a great area and overall a super amazing person !! This is where you want your pet staying if you are ever traveling !!”
About: I grew up showing my family dogs in 4-H shows and now have my own golden retriever at home. Looking to love on some more pets! Teacher summer mode is in full swing so I am available during weekdays and weekends. Willing to set up a regular schedule with your pet! I try my best to keep my calendar up to date for each month. I have 75 pound dog of my own that I can keep ahold of walking. I’ve managed many pets of all sizes over the last five years on Rover with varying levels of need.

Altoona dog parents share their Rover experiences
We absolutely LOVE having Rudy spend time at Kim’s house! He is always so well cared for and truly seems to enjoy every visit. This past stay, he made himself completely at home — one night sleeping between Kim and her husband, and another night cozied up with one of her kiddos 😆 One of the biggest indicators for us (besides his chosen sleeping arrangements!) is that he feels comfortable enough to eat all of his food. When we’ve left him with other sitters in the past, he sometimes hasn’t eaten much, so that says a lot about how relaxed and happy he is with Kim and her family. While every dog is different and I can’t promise other pups will settle in quite like Rudy does, we always feel so at ease knowing he’s genuinely loved and well cared for while we’re away. Thank you, Kim and family!
