Chrisalyn is such a nice and understanding individual to us fur baby owners, She took all of my request for Poe and Priya in stride, Chrisalyn took such good care of the pups and even got our shy girl to play and feel comfortable. I would ask Chrisalyn to watch my pups again 100%. I would also recommend her to any pet parent I know.

Ivi did such a great job watching our pups! She was with them for 2 weeks and sent lots of pictures that they looked very happy and well loved in. She was very responsive any time we reached out and also went above and beyond caring for our home. Thank you Ivi!

About: I am an MSW student and small business owner who has been in Luzerne County for a little over two years. As a pet owner, I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry family members behind when you're away. I bring over 30 years of pet ownership experience with me when I come to care for your pets. I love hiking and exploring the outdoors and also love a day on the couch watching movies. I have issues hitting a 10 mile trail with an energetic dog or spending the day watching Star Wars with a docile cat. I have a dog and a cat of my own and nothing in the world makes me happier than spending time with them. I am excited to bring the same energy to your dogs and cats! I am open and available and have a very flexible schedule. Currently working a 9-5, Monday through Friday, but can work remote when needed. As of June of 2024 I will be leaving my current role to focus on pet care and to on my business. I am basically available 24/7. I understand how tough it can be to invite a stranger into your home to care for your pets. As a pet owner myself, my aim is to follow your precise instructions and make sure all of your pet's needs are met. My dog is getting up there in age and requires daily oral medication. She also isn't a fan of taking her pills. I am no stranger to coming up with inventive ways of getting my pets to take their medicine.

We did a meet and greet prior to leaving our girls. They loved Morgan immediately. When Morgan arrived today, the girls greeted her tails wagging '. We came home to two very happy pups. Thanks Morgan.

Caring for animals is more than a job for Ryan it’s a passion. He has respect for animals and appreciates that they have feelings. Whether it’s caring for his own dog, his grandparents cats or animals at a zoo where he is a summer zoo keeper you’d be challenged to find someone who loves animals more than Ryan. He is currently pursuing his BS in Animal Behavior and Health Studies at Unity College as a distance learner. Your cherished pet will be in great hands with Ryan.

Bri was fantastic with my pups! It was so great being able to go on vacation and not have a single worry that my dogs were in great hands. I received daily photos and videos! She also gave my house a clean before I got home, which was such a relief after a long day of traveling. I definitely plan to have Bri watch my pups again!

I was very impressed with Claire and her patience in dealing with my cat's skittish behavior. This was the first time having a cat sitter and my cats were hiding quite often. Claire took the time to find my skittish cats and ensure they were fed by staying with them long enough to see them eat. She sent me updates on them and on their various hiding spots. Overall if I need a cat sitter again I would rebook Claire because she took great care of my cats.

Thalia loves pets more than anyone I know in this world. She works with a rescue in our area to do her best to find all pets a home. Whether it’s a reptile, cat or dog, she takes care and loves that pet as her own. I wouldn’t trust anyone with an animal more than her.

I was very happy with booking Kayla to watch my dog Wesley when I was going out of town. Wesley is on a few life dependent meds that she kept his routine schedule for as well as following along with his other care instructions. I was updated with pictures daily of them hanging out together. I could tell when I got home that he had fun and he did not seem anxious that I was away. This was my first time leaving Wesley with a “stranger” but both he and I were comfortable with her care & service. She was also very accommodating to some things that happened outside of my control during my trip. I will be booking again!

About: I have helped take care of my family dog for as long as I could take him for walks by myself. I have loved animals all my life, which led me to major in Animal Behavior. At school, I helped to train and care for capuchin monkeys, administering medication and providing enrichment. This will be my main job, so I will have plenty of time to fit into caring for your pet. I am free on weekends to housesit and stay over to take care of your pets. I am free from 12-5 on weekdays, and if need be, I would also be able to stay overnight to care for your pets on weekdays as well.

About: I’ve taken care of my own pets, friends, family, and neighbors. I have taken care of dogs that weigh less than 10 pounds to ones that reach over 200 pounds. I got my first pet at the age of seven. His name was Samson. He was a wolf hybrid and weighed 180 pounds. My second dog came a year later his name was Comet and weighed 40 pounds. I had him for 16 years Samson was 13, when he passed. I currently have a dog named Charley. Shes’ a four year old person Russell rough terrier mix. I also have a six year old cat named Kitty. I also took care of a tortoise named Einstein for a year too. I have a dog and cat I care for daily. They are great. So I enjoy being with animals, helping and taking care of them. I wake up at 6 AM every day feed my dog and cat. Take my dog for a walk early in the morning, then again later on in the day. I also spend time playing with them, taking them in the car for rides and sometimes I take them to the store with me too. I don’t leave them in the car. I changed their water multiple times throughout the day. Give them treats, feed them breakfast and make their dinner every day. I take them to the vet twice a year. I also get them groomed monthly at the grooming salon. Both of my pets are spayed and up-to-date on all of their shots.
