Kim is absolutely the best! She took such a great care of our kitty! She kept us updated twice daily while we were away with pictures and feedback. Even watered our plants and picked up mail! We were extremely lucky to be able to have such a caring , dedicated and loving visiting companion for our furry baby Jupi ! Can’t thank you enough!

Nicole was fantastic! As soon as we met, my dog automatically went to her like he knew her forever. A sign of instant trust, She was great at knowing what my dog and cat needed and went above and beyond my expectations. Very personable, responsive, and excellent at keeping me up to date with everything. I will most certainly choose her again!

This was our first time working with Luci, and we were her first clients. I was very happy with her responsiveness and ease with our four kitties. She brings extensive cat experience from having her own plus having worked in a cat shelter, which brought an extra layer of comfort while we were away. We hope she will continue to be our sitter for future needs because she is a very kind, caring person we would love to work with again.

Ashley is very calm, which is really important with a bulldog because you don't want them to get overheated. I could tell my dog liked her because she was very calm when I came home. All of this is very important to me! I would definitely recommend Ashley!

Erin took care of our little Coco in February 2023. She was a fabulous pet sitter, with an obvious love for dogs. We had the added benefit of Erin being a great photographer, sending us wonderful photos and videos. Our home was left meticulous. We would highly recommend Erin for future house/pet sits. K & R

Joel has looked after my St. Bernard for several years and I’ve always felt great leaving Tinker in his care. Tinker is a big dog and has problems overheating, but I trust Joel to take good care of him on hot days (and Tinker loves Joel). So I recommend Joel for any job pet sitting or walking. He is responsible and loves animals.

About: My fiancée, Chase, and I are currently raising our lab, and have both grown up with dogs. Additionally, I often babysat for families with pets and would care for them like my own! I am lucky to only work 3 days/week and spend my off days with our dog & running errands. Helping care for your pet gives me something great to do in my time off. Chase is off on weekends and can take over responsibilities if I have to work. We have a fenced in backyard in a wonderful pet-friendly neighborhood. I ensure I follow the owner & pet’s expectations for going out, playing, and any daytime routine.

Tiffany is a fantastic caretaker. We have had her take care of our cat multiple times now and she is always reliable and communicative. Our cat can be a bit slow to come out of her shell and Tiffany sends us helpful updates when we're away. Thank you!!!

About: I have been caring for dogs ever since I was a little girl. My family always had labs and I can remember my first best friend, Clare. Clare was a yellow lab and we got her when I was 6. Growing up learning the responsibilities of pet care allowed me to grow into a career, now that I am older, that has me surrounded by dogs every day! I've managed a boarding/daycare kennel for the last 2 years and now I manage a Dog Park/Restaurant in Sarasota. I have a Golden Retriever, Maddie, and I love being her mom. She gets me up early and keeps me on a routine. Routine is super important for dogs, as they learn the human world, because at the end of the day- they just want to be dogs! I am confident I could keep any dog happy and on a consistent routine! I currently live in a beautiful house in Laurel Park. I take my dog on a lot of walks and adventures around my neighborhood to keep her active! I have experience in dog training and leash handling, so I am always confident she is secure when we go out. At home, I make sure she gets a lot of love and belly rubs! All things I will happily be doing for your baby!

Alanna has watched our pets for years. She has stayed at our home, come for feeding and walking only and also taken dogs to her home to stay. We’ve always felt they were loved and cared for. She cares for our cats and birds as well. We trust her and know she loves animals just as she loves her children.

Sharity is excellent with our dogs! She’s worked with both our small chihuahua mix, our larger mixed breed, and our Great Dane when he was still with us. She is never intimidated by barking or rambunctious behavior and makes an effort to calm the dogs down before rewarding them with cuddles and treats. Highly recommend!

About: I have taken care of, dogs, cats, horses, goats, pigs, spiders, birds, fish, snakes, lizards, rats , hermit crabs, and even babies! Grew up in Florida with the more exotic animals, and farm life in Central Florida. Colorado has been more conventional pets. Tiny guys to large pitbulls and German Shepards. I love them all. New to PA. I work as a fine dining server so I can be on call to care for a pet pretty last minute if I am needed. I have very flexible hours and can easily set up a routine visit if needed. Feel free to ask for last minute bookings. I also have my car if needed. I have a rescue kitten at home, so I do not offer in my home care right now. Although in your home, I am open to any and all rules or routines you would like your pet to be on. It's like babysitting at a client's house but way better! Ha
