Brittanie was fantastic! She worked with our crazy travel schedule and even brought some special treats for our pets. Charley and Kilo were so glad to have someone checking on them and doing walks and we were just so happy to have found someone we can trust with our pets. We also really appreciated the photo updates she sent and that she kept the lines of communication constatnly open. We'll definitely be using her again!

About: I am back from home after graduating with a Masters this summer, so I am excited to come home and go back to dog sitting, what I’ve done since I was in high school! My dog Sammy is always so excited when we go home because she gets to meet new pup friends, and we both love having more dogs around to play with. Sammy is just about the nicest dog you'll ever meet. I've had dogs my whole life, and I love taking care of all animals, rowdy or calm! We have a huge yard (and a very tall fence, so no need to worry if anybody can jump over it!) that we can run in all day, and when we're all tired, we lounge on the couch and relax. Sammy and I take daily walks, and sometimes walk twice a day, which your animal can join in on as well. I take care of pets like they're my own, I just love them so much! My house will be like a home away from home for your pet. I am home working on writing and grading all day for my winter break so I am home the entire day to care for your pup. I will play or snuggle with the pets based on their energy and preferences! They will get treats as often as you tell me to give them (I know some pups are on a diet so I will wait for you to say if it’s okay to give any treats). They will go outside as often as they need and spend all winter inside a warm living room with me and my pup Sammy

About: Hi! My name is Olivia and I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I am constantly around animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am comfortable around all dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them. I would love to be able to take them to the dog park where they can also interact with other animals while you're away! I have one dog of my own - a little westie girl who is full of energy. I am currently working part time so I am available for drop ins or house sittings when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home, I would love to take your fur babies for walks, to dog parks, anything you already do with them to make them the most comfortable! My goal is simple: give you peace of mind and give your pet the best possible care. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I currently have a part-time job so caring for pets is something I intentionally build my day around. I make sure each visit is unhurried, giving your pets time to eat, play, and feel comfortable with me. I treat every pet like my own, so they’re not just another task, they’re an important part of my day. I treat every pet like my own while respecting that I’m a guest in their home. I stick to their usual routine for meals and care, spend quality time playing or cuddling (depending on what they like), and make sure their environment stays clean and calm. I also send updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and getting lots of attention.

Karie was awesome! She took the time to make a trip over to meet our dogs before her first stay, which was so appreciated. She sent us pictures during her stay and kept us in the loop. Great communication. I know my dogs enjoyed her stay and were looking forward to seeing her again soon!

Chelsea did a great job taking care of my animal family! My dog has special needs and she handled them perfectly! Also my dog instantly liked her, he could tell she’s an animal lover and I knew he’d be in good hands. She keeled me posted on how things were going which made it easier while being away! Highly recommend her!❤️😁

Kaelyn was an incredible sitter! We love our fur babies so much and were nervous when our previous sitter fell through, but Kaelyn was available, professional and made us feel so comfortable. She did a fantastic job taking care of our animals and house sitting despite it being in partial renovations. She is reliable, caring and sent lots of pictures and updates. Thank you for taking care of our babies!

Deeanna was a wonderful sitter for our 2 boys!! I highly recommend her! She gave us multiple updates throughout the day with pictures and videos and left my home so clean that it was like she wasn’t there. I will definitely ask her to sit my 2 pups again without hesitation and recommend her to family and friends.

We could not have had a better experience working with Jarett. It was our first long trip away from Oliver, and he went above and beyond not only to make sure Oliver was taken care of, but that we were updated often. Thanks to Jarett, we were able to relax on vacation and come home to a happy pup and our house exactly as we left it.

Ruxin is a 13 year old weimerener with loving energy. His disposition matched Natalie’s personality and there were no hesitations from either of them; they bonded immediately. Natalie is a natural. She is reliable, competent and confident. Your pet is in good hands with her. I cannot speak highly enough of Natalie’s communication and ongoing commitment to keep our loved one safe, happy and healthy while we were away. This was the peace of mind that made the trip so relaxing. Natalie can be trusted without doubt or hesitation. She is thorough and seeks clarification if she is unsure of something pertaining to the uniqueness of your pet-this is the assurance that I admire and respect most in her ability to provide exceptional care. I know that Ruxin enjoyed his stay-cation from us as much as we enjoyed our time away visiting family. This was evident through the photos that she shared throughout. In addition to the great care that she provided to Ruxin, Natalie took outstanding care of our home. Upon returning from our trip, we were very pleased to find our house spotless! Thank you Natalie for your ongoing dedication to the pets and their homes that you care for. Ruxin sends his ❤️

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years, with the majority of my hands-on experience in the last five years. I currently care for my own dog, Layla, and have also fostered, so I’m comfortable working with different temperaments, routines, and energy levels. I’ve potty trained three dogs, including my own, a foster dog, and a puppy I raised for about six months before transitioning him to my parents. That experience gave me a strong understanding of consistency, structure, and reinforcing good habits. I’ve provided both boarding and in-home pet sitting for multiple households, including homes with multiple dogs and homes with both dogs and cats. Whether pets are staying with me or I’m caring for them in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I understand how important consistency, patience, and communication are while owners are away. I’m reliable, attentive, and communicative throughout stays, and I treat every pet like my own. My dog Layla may accompany me during some house sitting stays depending on the pets and circumstances. She is friendly, social, and has done very well with other dogs during previous stays. I work full-time during weekdays, so I’m typically out of the home for about 9 hours during the day. Pets in my care should be comfortable with that schedule, and I make sure they are exercised, settled, and comfortable before I leave, with plenty of attention, walks, and interaction when I return home. On weekends, I’m much more available and hands-on, which allows for extra walks, playtime, enrichment, and cuddle time. Whether I’m boarding, doing daycare, or staying in a client’s home, I aim to maintain each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, behavior, and specific needs so I can provide consistent care and maintain the environment they’re used to. I live in an apartment with multiple grassy areas nearby for walks and bathroom breaks, along with an on-site dog park for additional exercise and enrichment. I tailor activity levels to each dog’s age, energy level, and comfort. I’m experienced with dogs of different temperaments and can reinforce routines such as feeding schedules, crate training, potty habits, and calm household behavior if needed. Whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs, I prioritize safety, communication, cleanliness, and creating a calm environment where pets can relax and feel at home.

About: I’ve lived with 5+ dogs reaching over 70 pounds for 18 years. I have experience with drop-in care and overnight care. I also have lived with 1-2 cats for my whole life and have cat-sat in the past. I’m currently at University studying Biology planning on becoming a Veterinarian. Available for overnights in your home and will stay with the animal for the duration of the night. I am currently home for summer from Temple University so I will have a lot of time to spend with pets during most days and nights! I’d follow instructions from the client. I am experienced with feeding dogs, walking dogs, play-time, cooldown time before and after a meal for the dog.
