About: Had a farm before I had a phone. I’m Sarah—a funny, outgoing animal lover who’s been surrounded by fur, feathers, and shells since I was 7. I’ve cared for everything from horses to hamsters, and I treat every animal like family. I currently work 3 nights a week at a hospital. I have FOMO, so I still make time during my days to do what i love, which keeps the rest of my week wide open & fun! I have a fenced in yard, and currently no pets of my own However you treat/have trained your animals, i will respect that & do the same with them while you’re away!


“Vivian and her family have been helping take care of our little pup, Ebby, for a little less than 3 months now and I cannot say enough good things about her. She is so reliable, loves Ebby like she’s her own, and updates us daily with pictures and videos during their walks. We could not work full time and give our energetic puppy the attention she needs without her help. Thank you for all that you do!”


About: For the past 3, years I have stayed over at a family friends home and watched their dog. I have also watched my neighbors dog before. My family does not have a dog, so I love being able to spend time and give love to someone’s else when they are not able to! My best friend has a cat and dog. Whenever she works crazy hours, I will go over and feed her pets for her and take her dog on a walk. I am currently a student at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. I have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. My class on thursday does not start until 2pm so I am available in the mornings. I work part time at walmart. At walmart I work Wednesdays and Saturdays from 7-4 so I am available after that. Other than that, I am pretty much available whenever! When at someone’s else’s home, I keep an eye on their pet so that way I know where they are at and that they are not getting into any trouble. As previously stated, my family does not own any type of pet. However, I have watched dogs before for family friends and neighbors.

About: I have taken care of my puppies, dogs, and cats in my home growing up, and I have watched and taken care of many of my friends’ pets in college! I have one dog who is now 2!! And I often take care of my boyfriend’s 5 year old golden retriever! I am currently searching for full time employment, so I would love to walk, play, and care for your dog any time of the week! I’d be more than happy to keep your dog company during the day, take them on walks, play with them, give them cuddles, or just chill!

About: Hi! I have a dog of my own and she’s my baby! I’m currently offering in home sitting and drop in visits. For in home sittings my dog would have to come with me for I can’t leave her alone if it’s overnight or for a couple of nights. I’m an all around animal lover! I can also help teach your new puppy basic stuff like sit, lay down, and potty training! I currently do have a job but I work evenings, and can work with anyone’s schedule! Im mostly available in the mornings but on my days off I’m available at anytime! If your dogs would needed to be crated I could definitely do that, my dog is dog friendly and even cat friendly, also let me know how much to feed them a day

About: I have owned at least 4 animals at once my entire life. I have experience with long term pet boarding. I love all animals big and small! I’m currently a student, so I’m available for drop ins on fridays/mondays along with nights on those days, and I am available all day/night on weekends. I live in an apartment complex and already own two cats, so I am unable to house your pet in my home. However in my clients home I will respect how you take care of your animals and follow any instructions given.

About: I have grown up my whole life with a dog just until very recently. When my dog passed away, I started offering my services around my neighborhood and continued to connect with our furry friends by walking them around the neighborhood. I have always had a deep love for animals (especially dogs) and love to spend time with them. I found this app and thought it would be a great way to continue to spend time and take care of them! I am currently off for the summer. I am in nursing school taking some time off until the next semester starts. I can work anytime the semester is out. I am going back to school August 24th but would love to sit on the weekends if needed. My home has a built in invisible fence for the dogs, I love petting dogs and playing tug of war or just sitting next to them while I’m reading etc.

About: I have been caring for pets for over ten years. I previously had a beagle and now I have a miniature pinscher that I spoil! Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy senior cat, I’m happy to keep your pet comfortable while you are away. I am currently in my gap year between my undergraduate studies and physician assistant school. My daily and weekly schedule is mostly open and I have lots of flexibility! Your pet’s safety and wellbeing will always be my top priority. I am a detail-oriented and organized person that will follow instructions precisely. I treat every pet like my own and understand how important it is to build relationships with animals and their owners.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, including my own Sheepadoodle, Chihuahua mix, and two cats. One of my cats is a perfect angel, while the other keeps me on my toes with their mischievous antics, so I’m no stranger to handling unique pet personalities! My experience includes dog walking, frequent trips to the dog park, administering pet medications, and hiking with dogs for exercise and enrichment. I’m also comfortable with multiple drop-in visits a day to ensure pets feel loved and cared for. I would be thrilled to take care of your pet and provide them with the same love and attention I give my own. I work full-time during the week, but my job is incredibly flexible so I can provide exceptional care for your pets. If you give me a heads-up, I can make arrangements to pick them up or drop in early on any morning to ensure they’re settled and cared for right away. I can even stop in three times a day at your home if that’s what you need. During the weekend, I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise with regular walks, personalized attention, and lots of love. I’m also available for pet visits if your furry friend needs a check-in, feeding, or playtime while you’re out. Let me know your needs, and I’ll make sure your pet is happy and well cared for! On top of providing dedicated care, I love keeping pets active and engaged with fun activities. I’ll take your dog to local dog parks where they can safely socialize and play, as well as on long walks to help them burn off energy and stay healthy. If your pup loves adventure, we can explore nearby trails or enjoy extended play sessions in the backyard. Whether it’s fetch, tug-of-war, or just relaxing in the sun, I’ll tailor the experience to what your pet enjoys most. My goal is to ensure they’re not only cared for but also happy, stimulated, and relaxed when they’re with me.

About: I’ve owned and taken care of pets, especially dogs and cats, since I was 10. II’m excited to dog or puppy sit and get to know more people in my community I am currently a stay at home mom, December I will be returning to work but I plan on only working part time. Thank you I have 2 local parks I visit and one has a dog park. I also have a fenced in yard at my apartment we spend a lot of time in.

“Amy has been such a blessing to Lily and myself!! She walks lily while I am at work and has been extremely flexible when I switched to night shift! she even sends pictures and updates, which I love on a stressful night of work! I will keep using her as long as she is able :) ”


About: I have a 7 year old Lab that I’ve taken care of since he was a puppy, and I’ve watched friends’ pets often. I’m attentive, enthusiastic, and detail-oriented and happy to work with you to help your pet feel happy and safe. I’m currently a part-time student so I have a flexible schedule and can work with you as per your needs! I’m happy to walk, dog-sit, cat-sit and meet your pet’s needs in any way I can. I can travel to your home and watch your pet(s) as long as you need me to, and I am also able to take them to the park or for walks!

About: I’m that lady you invited to the barbecue but will find her socializing in the corner with your pet! I have farm, kennel, pet store, dog training, as well as over 35 years of personal pet care experience. I am dog and cat First Aid/CPR certified, can give medications with ease, administer shots, and have disabled and geriatric pet care experience. Pawsitively Faithful Pet Sitting is my in-home business, but my primary job is also a work from home career with UPMC. That being said, I am always here for your furry friend's around the clock care 😊! Currently I have a Boston Terrier named Brixy, and he is my joy. He’s very well behaved but because he is special needs (medically speaking), he remains in my office when we have any pet visitors stay with us. There’s never a shortage on love or playtime in this house! I keep plenty of extra supplies on hand (bowls, toys, treats, etc) and have an "air-tight" fenced in yard along with tie out cables of all different sizes to accommodate your pet if you have extra concern and wish me to use one. I can not even begin to imagine how nerve wracking it must feel to leave your pet in the care of a complete stranger and for that I can empathize! Words can never express the level of my reassurance to you that your little one will be looked after as if they were my very own in every protective and motherly manner possible. ***Please understand, this is a legitimate and legally run pet sitting business for me. In the state of PA, (even if you're only watching one dog), you must have a kennel license and pass a very detailed inspection with the local dog warden. I have passed this inspection but it is a 100% PA State requirement that if your pet stays in my home, you must provide me with a copy of proof of their rabies vaccination or exemption. Without this, I could receive a massive fine if they drop in for a surprise inspection of my home. With a work from home career, I have plenty of time to devote to your pets care in my house. Keeping a perfectly executed schedule for them to go out, exercise, eat meals, snuggle, etc. is very important to me. I have my pet sitting routine down to a science! Generally, when they wake up, I take them out to the fully enclosed, fenced yard and either let them run, or I will use a tie out cable (I have all sizes) if the pet parent likes me to use one for extra safety purposes. Then we eat breakfast and settle in so I can start my work from home job. Throughout the rest of the day I will take breaks to let them outside every couple of hours, and spend time giving them love, attention, and playtime. My shifts end at 2:30pm, and depending on the weather, we usually go outside to play fetch or just enjoy some sunshine. Around 5 or 6pm, they get dinner and we start to wind down for the evening with some relaxation time watching Turners Classic movies 😄. There is another potty break before bed around 8 or 9pm at which point we usually call it day.

About: I have 4 rescue pit-mixes and 1 cat of my own, growing up we always had pets and I learned from a young age the love and care a pet needs. My friends always ask me first to check on their pets or watch them, they know I will care for them like they are my own! I currently work as a nurse three days a week, this gives me the flexibility that you may need to schedule a drop in or walk for your fur-baby! I offer same-day cancellations and same-day scheduling! I know how hard it is to come by trustworthy people to take care of your family members, so I take pride in promising you your fur-baby will be safe with me. I can send pictures/videos at every drop-in or walk and also send you a message with an update on how the visit went!

About: I have extensive pet experience, having owned both cats and dogs throughout my life. Currently, I'm raising two shepherds and three cats. I've trained my own pets and have also helped family members with training. Additionally, I've provided care for pets while their owners are on vacation, ensuring they receive the love and attention they need. My hands-on experience with various breeds makes me well-equipped to care for your furry friends! I work as a family-based therapist, which gives me a flexible schedule. This allows me to spend more time with animals, whether it’s walking, caring for, playing with, or training them. My job provides me the opportunity to balance my professional responsibilities with my passion for animals, ensuring that I can give your pets the attention and care they deserve. In terms of safety, trust, and environment, I prioritize creating a secure and comfortable space for pets in my home or my clients' homes. For in-home care, I have a fenced yard that provides a safe area for pets to play and explore. I also use room separators to ensure that pets remain in designated areas, and I have kennels available if needed for their comfort and security. I come prepared with my own leashes and have prior experience handling various situations to ensure the pets' safety. This allows me to guide pets effectively and manage any potential challenges that may arise. My focus is always on creating a trustworthy environment where pets feel at ease while receiving the care they need.

“Ade took a very last minute booking with my puppy while we were in a desperate situation. Super sweet and responds quickly. It definitely seemed like my puppy had a good time with her and will 100000% rebook her when she’s available!”

Michael V.
“Michael was amazing with our two pit bulls while we were away at a wedding. Even though they had never met them before, he connected with them right away and made them feel comfortable. He went above and beyond, sending us a video of them playing in the yard, making sure they got outside to use the bathroom, and even staying to hang out with them for a bit. We really appreciated the extra care and attention he gave. His communication was great throughout, and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for safe, loving care and excellent service.”

Sarah B.
“I can't say enough good things about Sarah! She took care of both my dog and cat while I was away, and I came home to two incredibly happy, relaxed pets. From the start, she was professional, friendly, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. She kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. My dog, who can be a bit shy, warmed up to her almost immediately. Sarah went above and beyond, not just feeding and walking them, but spending quality time playing and cuddling with them. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and attentive to care for your pets like they're her own, Sarah is the one. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”
