About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes! I grew up always having a dog around so I have years of experience. I am very responsible and reliable when it comes to any job or task. I currently just moved into the State College area. I’m currently on a job search. Until I find the right job for me, my availability is very open. I currently don’t have any pets in my home. I prefer not to stay at my clients homes to watch their dog. I would prefer drop-ins or bring them to my home. Outside of my home we have a dog park and walking trails!

About: I’ve grown up around big dogs my whole life—my family had a Pit bull, English bulldog, a Cane Corso, and two labs—so I’m super comfortable with large breeds and understand how to care for their specific needs. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid, and on my own since I was 16. Over the years, I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and family with walking, feeding, bathing, and just making sure their pets feel safe and loved. Whether your dog is playful or shy, I’m confident I can provide a calm, positive environment for them while you’re away. I currently am a student, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pup. I’m never gone or out of the house for more like 2-2.5 hours and I am extremely active so time for play, walks, hikes and down time throughout the day will be made. Your dog’s routine and comfort will always be my priority! Pets in my care will be treated like family. Dogs are like our own children at the end of the day! I keep a clean, pet-safe space, and I always follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep routines consistent and stress-free. Whether it’s crate training, special diets, or medication, I’ve got it covered with care and attention to detail!

About: Responsible pet sitter with over 20 years experience. My husband 3 children and I run a small homestead. We have our family dog Penny, 2 cats named lamb and cow, bunnies, pigs and chickens. I have experience with small and large livestock. And have Volunteered time fostering dogs for PAWS in state college. I have experience with and assisting the delivery of animals, administering medications, following specific feeding schedules, and providing companionship and exercise. I’m a stay at home mom with 3 children. We do go to church on Sunday's. We would be gone Sunday's for about 3 hours in total. Unless it’s soccer season we are home! We have a fenced in front yard and our back yard leads into the woods. We have areas for a dog to be completely fenced in if needed as well. We spend a majority of our summer days outside. We live in a 2 story home, pets will be on the main floor in our home. Our stairs have gates for the bottom and top. Our animals are welcome on the couch but if this is a no no for you we will respect that. Our dog is crate trained and sleeps in her crate at night. Our cats have free range of our home but spend most of the time in the basement.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life growing up. Anywhere from small, medium, to large dogs. I’ve had mini dachshunds, Dalmatians, St. Bernards, and German Shepherds. Currently right now I have a 3 Golden Retrievers named Willie, Waylon, and Hank. I also have a cat named Cash! I current work full time at a dentist office Monday-Thursday. I can be available later evenings if needed! I am open all day Friday-Sunday for any needs! We have a 2 acre yard that my pups are free to roam via a underground fence. But we also have a lead for my moms dogs when she brings them over to play. We have a big house with a good sized living room and kitchen where all of my pups play as well when we have to be inside.

“Mary, was great. She really took care of Penny like she was her own. We will be using her for sure in the future.”

About: When my parents got me a puppy when I was 12 years old, I was extremely excited to take care of her. I love taking care of her so much, so I decided that I wanted to go around my neighborhood and take care of their dogs. It has been such a great experience ever since! I am currently a student at Penn State, but I usually end classes at around 3 during the weekdays. I have Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays all free at anytime. Providing safe, enjoyable dog walking and daycare services tailored to each pet’s needs. I ensure structured exercise, engaging playtime, and a comfortable environment to keep dogs happy, healthy, and well-cared-for while their owners are away.

About: What sets me apart is my ability to tailor my care to the specific needs of each pet. Whether it's training a new puppy with positive reinforcement techniques or providing specialized care for senior pets, I focus on understanding and addressing their individual requirements. My approach includes regular communication with pet owners to ensure their preferences and routines are followed, making the experience as comfortable and seamless as possible for both pets and their families. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine. I start by ensuring pets are fed, exercised, and given any necessary medications. Throughout the day, I maintain their environment and address any needs that arise. My routine also includes regular updates to pet owners, providing them with peace of mind and ensuring continuity of care. Each week, I review and adjust routines to accommodate any changes in the pet’s health or behavior. In my home, I ensure a pet-friendly environment with secure areas, clean spaces, and safety measures like pet-proofing and monitoring. I also follow a consistent routine to maintain stability and comfort for pets. In a client’s home, I prioritize safety by following their specific instructions and maintaining their pet’s usual environment and routines. I ensure that all doors and gates are securely closed, and I keep the home clean and hazard-free. Regular updates and open communication with the pet owners are key to ensuring their pet’s well-being and their own peace of mind.

About: I love animals I love working with them and get to see there personalities. I love training them and teaching them new tricks. All kinds of pets are welcome. I have a cat and he’s my absolute favorite. I also just recently got a golden retriever and she is my whole world. I am currently working part time as a home health aid. I usually stay there over night Sundays Thursday's and every other Friday and Saturday. I make sure all my pets are feed and have water. I make sure all the pets are loved and have attention and make sure there happy. I will make sure they get everything they need. And lots of exercise
