Dog Sitting in Columbia

About: Hi, I’m Scotty a lifelong dog lover and dependable walker based in Bushkill, PA. Dogs have been a huge part of my life, and caring for them isn’t just a job, it’s something I truly enjoy. Whether your pup needs an energizing stroll, a quick potty break, or some extra love while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they’re happy, safe, and cared for. I’m patient, attentive, and skilled at working with all kinds of dogs from shy companions who need reassurance to high energy pups who love adventure. I also have experience with leash-reactive dogs, so you can feel confident knowing I’ll keep your walks structured, calm, and positive. Big or small, every dog I meet is treated like family. My goal is to give you peace of mind while giving your dog the care, attention, and fun they deserve. Pet care is a everyday thing so I'm available whenever you need me. Weekends, weekdays, and holidays no matter when I'll provide a comfortable and active environment. In my own home pets have full access to both 1st and 2nd floor with a beautiful backyard garden and enclosed patio. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment tailored to the specific needs of each pet. For boarding services, I ensure ample space for play and rest, along with designated areas for meals and relaxation. Regular exercise and interactive playtime are integrated into the daily routine to keep pets mentally and physically stimulated. I adhere to any dietary restrictions and medication schedules diligently, ensuring each pet's health and well-being are top priorities.

About: I’ve always been a huge pet lover, from taking care of childhood cats and raising pigeons, to owning my own doggos. I’ve worked on a farm and have taken care of chickens, cats, dogs, & goats! I’m here for pets of any shape or size. Even if your gold fish needs someone to talk to. I have two pet children Shiba Inus (Yuki & Yoshi), a professional swimming niece German Shepard (Sammie), worlds largest cuddling niece Bernese mountain Dog (April), 2 mutt nephews (Carl & Mike), and a wild child nephew Golden Retriever (Huxley). I’m completely available on weekends. Monday-Friday I am available before 8am and after 5pm. I also have an hour break at work that I don’t end up taking, so if you’re nearby I have no problem stopping by! Safety is my number one goal for both myself and your pet. I have 2 Shiba Inu’s and if you don’t know much about them they are super genius escape artists. If they get off a leash or out a house door they are gone and not coming back, so being trained on being cautious with my own dogs gives me an instinct with others. My brothers Doxie Romeo used to live with us for a while. He needed special care as he was restricted to no stairs. He had 3 major back surgeries and needed a little extra support. I don’t have an issue telling someone I’m not comfortable watching their pet. I want both myself & yourself along with your pets to be comfortable.

About: Hello! I'm Kristie. I have been caring for dogs for more than half of my life. If you choose me as your loved ones temporary caregiver, they'll have a huge yard to run and play in and a loving home to call their own for the day or however long care is needed for. I am primarily available after 6 on weekdays and all day weekends, so you can have a getaway worry free! If you have any special requirements, do not hesitate to ask and I will fulfill them to the best of my ability. I am available for drop in visits also in case your pet just needs some fresh air! Thank you so much for this opportunity and thanks for considering me!

About: Aside from owning dogs and cats throughout my life, I’ve helped take care of my roommate’s dog for over 3 years. Now, I live with my partner and our 2 cats, Ricky and Julien. I also volunteer as a dog walker at Doggy Style in Northern Liberties. I’m currently working as a part-time, freelance copywriter, and my days and hours are very flexible. I love animals and am excited to care for yours! With my previous roommate, I helped walk his dog, feed and care for his Bodhi who has severe separation anxiety. Currently, I live with my partner and am still working to patiently introduce our two cats.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a little girl which has lead me to becoming a veterinary technician where I currently work with cats and dogs of all sizes and even some exotics! Pet care it part of my everyday life since I work in an animal clinic Monday - Friday as well as attending classes to become a certified veterinary technician. When taking care of new pets I take my time making sure they are confident and comfortable. Once assuring the pet is comfortable I can go about feeding, walking and of course playing!

About: As a nature-loving Poconos local, I bring a mix of deep care and joyful energy to every walk. I was the proud mama of a small dog who lived to be 15— she my best friend and like a child to me—so I understand the depth of love, trust, and nuance that comes with caring for a beloved fur baby. Whether your pup is sprightly or senior, playful or shy, I tune into their personality and pace. I offer more than just care—I offer connection, trust, and peace of mind. I work from home full-time, which gives me the flexibility to offer consistent, reliable walks throughout the day. I’m happy to communicate updates, photos, or notes so you always feel connected and confident. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I bring a calm, attentive presence to every walk, always keeping a close eye on surroundings, leash safety, and your fur baby’s well-being. With years of experience as a devoted dog mama, I understand how to build trust—through consistency, gentle communication, and honoring each dog’s unique needs.

“James was a delight. He showed up the day before for a visit and talk, and was very easy to talk to and warmed up to our dog who is very picky. We'd use him again in a heartbeat.”

“Do they have 6 stars? Michele saved me big time! I was traveling right before the 4th of July and my dogs needed a place to stay as the person walking my dog had to go away for a planned vacation (my trip was extended)... Michele helped me coordinate everything over the phone, walked me through what her household is like and after meeting my pups, they were off. After 3 weeks with her, I can genuinely say my pups came back better than I left them and that’s not an exaggeration either! I highly highly recommend booking with Michele, she thinks fast on her feet and is very engaged with the dogs giving them a lot of attention and support as well as plenty of exercise. Thankful to have worked with her.”

“Darlene was a perfect match for our pup Daphne. Darlene is down-to-earth and it’s clear she’s worked around animals for a long time, and knows what to do.
