“My dog has major anxiety issues. Katie has been tremendous working with us in order to provide the approach care for our challenged girl. She has helped to troubleshoot what type of care to provide. It is also so reassuring to receive photos during her stays in order to provide me with a peace of mind. It’s truly been a pleasure working with Katie!”
“We were a little apprehensive, never used Rover before, we were unfamiliar with Rillan, just had past reviews to help us choose. Happy to say, we were pleasantly surprised! Rillan is definitely a dog person. Our dog loves to play with other dogs, but dogs need to be monitored so they don’t get too crazy. She has a nice outdoor fenced play area and inside open space. Like a good kindergarten teacher, Rillan makes sure each dog plays nicely, separates those that need a time out and also gives individual attention. She sent pictures and stayed in touch, just for an afternoon of doggie day care! Our dog’s day ended with a nap and snuggles with Rillan and another dog hanging out on the sofa!! Will definitely use her again!”
“I cant say enough about Simone & Kenya. We were in a bind and they were able to help us with very short notice. They sent pictures throughout the day which gave us great comfort that our puppy was being well cared for. He was so very happy when we picked him up. I know he would like to visit again.”
“Bex was a phenomenal sitter - she was very responsive, easy going, and treated my puppy like she would her own. I would be happy to book with her again :)”
About: Both my husband and I have had dogs since the day we were born, all of which were rescues. We are experienced giving a variety of medications and dealing with a variety of dog personalities (hyper active, anxious, etc.). We have raised and trained two pups since they were puppies. Our current pup, Finn, loves other dogs! We both work from home and take time at least twice a day to walk our dog, go on a run, or play in the yard. We have a 0.5 acre fenced in yard but also an electric fence that spans circles our 1.5 acre lot. Our dog Finn loves sitting on the chairs by the window and watching the birds and squirrels. We are also walking distance from a park and a nature reserve, which allows off leash walking if that is of interest to you. Feel free to ask any questions!
“Ryan is great. He is responsive and takes good care of Leo. Ryan's puppy, Charlie, and Leo have become friends. Leo is looking forward to future visits with Ryan and Charlie.”
“Denika was great, she sent lots of pictures and videos to keep us up on how Juno was doing throughout the day. We would definitely use her again.”
“Isabella was so helpful in watching our pup when we had an event to attend. Great communication and our pup had a great time. Would highly recommend!”
“Haley was awesome. Needed a dog sitter while I was in town for my sister's graduation ceremony. Haley was very communicative and flexible, very close to campus too which made the logistics of the whole thing a breeze. Pups seemed to have had a lot of fun with their visit!”
About: I joined a family who had a dog but she passed away after I went to College. I have been doing pet setting for over two years now. I have also raised my own puppy and he’s fully house trained and very friendly. He is very happy to social with any dog. I won’t be providing service at my place for early May because my sister is graduating and my family will be coming over. I don’t ever host more than 3 dogs at once, the dogs get to stay in the living room and I would stay with them, or they would be able to go upstairs into my bedroom. I currently work part time from home and have online asynchronous classes, so I’m home basically all day everyday. I live in a single-family style house and I prefer taking care of the pets in my home. I have had experience with both cats and dogs. I have a park 6 min walking from our home. Please make sure that your dog is friendly with other dogs, my own dog is a 98lb Bernese I know that some dogs don’t like him because of his size, so please keep this in mind when you book.
“Dean and Gwen were wonderful! They gave Annie all the attention she could have wanted. She was very comfortable and definitely enjoyed her time with them. I really appreciated the pictures and video they shared. Any dog that gets to spend time with them is a lucky pup!”
“Drew always went above and beyond with watching Ruby! She was always so excited to go to his house and so happy to see him! I knew she was well taken care of when she was with him. Would definitely recommend.”
“Maya, was wonderful and accommodating. She took care of my pet Nova and I appreciate the love and care she provided . She will be a wonderful loving friend to your pet . Nova was happy to go again on the second day of his daycare. I would leave Nova again with her in the future. Thank you Maya”
“Tracy was very caring and considerate. She took good care of my dog and sent me pictures of him throughout the day. I feel very lucky that we found Tracy”
About: Always joking that dogs are superior but in truthfulness love all animals. Experienced with dogs but open to providing care for other pets. Will strictly adhere to owner requests, so long as they are humane. (Furniture ok vs not allowed, food/walking schedule, treats, etc.). There will be no shortage of affection and attention, assuming the pet is receptive. Open to assisting with reactive or challenging pets. Attempting to build a trusting bond is an inherent desire. Work from home so (brief) walks, potty breaks, playtime, etc can be provided through entirety of day. Longer walks before 8am or after 5pm. Available 24/7 on weekends and holidays. Holiday vacation for me this year is 12/21 through 1/5, so will be available 24/7 during that window as well. Live alone so no concerns about other pets or children. Have decent sized yard but do require a leash since there is no fence. Safe, quiet, and friendly neighborhood.
About: I’ve been surrounded by pets for as long as I can remember! I grew up taking care of my own dogs, and family and friends have previously relied on me to walk, bathe, feed, and care for their furry loved ones while away. I believe in building trust with every pet I meet and I love getting to know their unique personalities! I also know how much you care for your beloved pet, so I find it important to send you continuous updates and pictures of how your furry companion is doing! I am available all day/night Thursdays through Sundays. Mondays - Wednesdays I work from 8:30am - 4pm, but I get an hour lunch during the day that I love to take walks on! I am also available before or after work. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for your beloved pets. Whether in your home or mine, I provide a secure environment where your pet feels safe and can thrive. I believe maintaining a sense of trust, familiarity, and security are important so I maintain meticulous attention to detail. You can trust me to create a loving and nurturing environment where your pets feel right at home!
“Kaley was so accommodating with our last minute booking! She took great care of our needy dog and provided us with cute photos and videos throughout the day. Was a great experience!”
About: I've walked, fed, and dog sat dogs for neighbors and recently siblings. I also currently have a 5 month old puppy who I've taken care of and trained myself since she was 8 weeks old. I'm currently a full time student at Penn State but my classes tend to be spread out so lots of time to give dogs love. I'm available to board dogs Friday-Sunday and dog sit weekdays (excluding tuesdays) anytime after 4. I have a very playful 5 month old puppy who loves to play with new friends. She gets daily walks and gets taken out every 2-4 hours to get energy out and to go potty so you're fur baby will be in great hands. My fur baby is crate trained at night and transitioning to graduating the crate so either option is okay for boarding here.
