Pet Sitting Duncannon

About: I have owned dogs my entire life and have owned a variety of breeds. I have been dog sitting for family, friends, and neighbors who have all had a variety of breeds. I have experience with providing medication to dogs and separation anxiety/anxiety in general. I will love them as much as you do as I spoil them with love and affection. I work from home during the day, Monday through Friday, allowing for care of the pet(s) during the day. I have 2 breaks and a lunch during the day and am flexible to take the dog(s) out to go potty when needed. I can adjust my schedule to meet the normal environment in your house. I also can meet with the dog(s) ahead of time to ensure that they will feel comfortable with me when I start dog sitting as well as you the owner.

About: I have cared for my family's pets for over 30 years, I love meeting new animals and getting to know their personality! I have experience at every stage of a pet's life, from puppies and kittens to elder pets. I have experience administering mediation, caring to your pet's specific needs, assisting disabled pets, training puppies and crate training. I am dedicated to being a caring and thoughtful pet-sitter. I love animals and can't wait to meet your special friend! I currently have 1 dog and 2 cats. My dog, Zoey, is a 2-year-old puppy that I got at 12 weeks old, so my puppy training skills are fresh! I also have 2 cats, Archie and Theo, who are brother cats from the same litter. I've had them since they were kittens. Zoey grew up with the cats, so she is well trained with cats and she is very well behaved. Zoey and the cats get along with other animals very well. They are sweet, loving pets that play together and nap side-by-side. I work from home full time, so I am always at the house. I am very flexible to whatever your pet's routine is. Whatever they need, I can incorporate it into my day. At booking, I will provide a questionnaire and you can advise me of any needs or requests for your pet's routine, and I will make their routine a part of mine! In my home, I provide pets with several comfortable areas for them to lounge and sleep in, with bedding and blankets. I also provide several toys and chew toys that are usually left out for them to play with (unless requested not to). Meals are kept on schedule and any mediation or vitamins are administered on-time. Water is always filtered and clean, changed daily (or use a continuous running system). Safety is my top priority. I want to ensure that your pet has a safe and relaxing time during their stay, I will provide a separate room for your animal if needed or requested, with their own bedding and play-area. I have several rooms in the house that are not used, so I keep this space reserved for your pets. I will collect your vet information at booking and take your pet to their vet if necessary; I also am a member of the local Dauphin County Animal Hospital, which I can use if needed for emergencies. I will maintain communication with you and check-in daily with photos; I am also open to take any inquiries, if you would like to check-in on your pets.

About: I have spent over four years working hands on in a busy rescue shelter, providing daily husbandry, medical care, behavioral support, and safe handling for animal friends of every temperament and condition. I supported new arrivals who came in confident and social, shy friends who shut down from stress, and pets who needed calm guidance before they felt safe. Working with furry friends who were excited, anxious, grieving, fearful, or adjusting to major life changes taught me how to respond with patience, steady communication, and professional skill. My background includes senior care, medical needs support, and specialized routines for friends who rely on consistency. I have managed medication schedules, wound care, mobility challenges, special diets, and emotional needs with confidence. I worked closely with veterinarians and served as a vet tech at the shelter, gaining hands on experience with medical procedures, behavior observation, and safe handling for friends in all conditions. I am trained in SAFER assessment handling and comfortable supporting pets who benefit from structure, reassurance, and predictable routines. I am equally confident with playful energetic friends who enjoy activity and quiet friends who prefer soft company and peaceful days. I have also been trusted to support furry friends during palliative care, something I approach with deep respect. Being asked to be present for a friend in their most vulnerable moments is a quiet honor, and I always offer steadiness, comfort, and calm attention. My shelter team often turned to me for these situations because of the way I understood each friend’s needs and the gentle presence I brought to difficult moments. Those experiences taught me how meaningful it is to provide warmth and reassurance when a friend needs it most, and they continue to shape the way I care for every pet I meet. In addition to hands on care, I also worked in customer experience at the shelter, helping match our furry friends with the right adopters. I learned how important it is to understand each friend’s personality, needs, and comfort level so I could communicate clearly and honestly with potential adopters. I spent time getting to know our friends, explaining their needs, and helping families understand what would make the best fit. Guiding adopters through those decisions taught me how to advocate for each friend with clarity, kindness, and confidence. Every furry friend is welcomed with respect, understanding, and genuine care. Whether a pet arrives full of energy, feeling uncertain, or simply looking for a reliable presence, I adjust to their pace and their comfort level. My goal is always to meet each friend exactly where they are and provide care that fits their age, personality, medical needs, and emotional state. I recently made the difficult but exciting decision to pause my career and stay home with my little one. During this chapter of life, I am also pursuing my education to become a Certified Veterinary Technician, allowing me to combine my love for animals with continued learning and professional growth. As a result, my schedule remains flexible and open, giving me the opportunity to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. If you have specific scheduling requests, I am always happy to discuss options and find a solution that works well for both of us! I believe pets are happiest when they can stay in the comfort of their own home, and my goal is to make your time away as stress free as possible for both you and your pet. I treat every animal with the same patience, kindness, and attention I would want for my own, taking the time to learn their routines, preferences, and unique personalities.I'm a big believer in clear communication and appreciate detailed instructions. The more I know, the better I can provide consistent care and make sure everything is done exactly the way you would do it yourself. I am always happy to double check details, ask thoughtful questions, and go the extra mile to prevent misunderstandings.During each visit, I will care for your home with the same respect and consideration I would my own, keeping everything clean, secure, and just as you left it. You'll receive plenty of updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, loved, and in good hands. Whether your pet wants playtime, cuddles, enrichment, exercise, or simply a calm and comforting presence, I'm committed to providing care that is tailored to their needs.

About: I've taken care of a few different types of dogs but mostly pitbulls. I love to play, if they have high-energy or snuggle and hang if thats their vibe. It'd be great to take them to a dog park with my pup or just out and about. I have my business in home so I'm close by with a flexible schedule. I have a good amount of time to spend in the morning and most days I don't work to late. I take my dog on long walks in the morning and some times to my parents to run in their yard. Every other weekend we're pretty open so we take our pup to a dog park or go for scenic walk and spend extra time outside if its nice. My dog takes long walks in the neighborhood in the am. During the week or weekend I'll take my dog to my parents yard which isn't far or out to a dog park to socialize. Gets fed at 7:30am, outside at about 9am to 10:30am and fed at 5pm out 9pm. She is crated at night and no longer is able to go up and down stairs safely because she has balance issues.

About: I've taken care of young and old dogs. I've watched family pets for years and have spent a lot of care on specialized research around animals to ensure I give them the best care I can. I love to play with them, never get bored of watching them and ass I started I pay a lot of attention to detail. I can pick up on all those little details in dogs that many sitters will miss. You could not leave your dog with a safer host. I have a very flexible and open schedule right now. I am willing to work whenever and can plan around caring for your pet. It will be my number one priority. I have an apartment that is free of pets right now so I have the space give your pet some extra room without disruption while they stay with me

“Awesome as always and Sebastian likes Marlaina! Rover: I am completely fine with Marlaina not staying the full 30 minutes, as she gives Sebastian his SubQ fluids, and it does not take 30 minutes to administer. Thank you!”

About: I've been a pet owner for 30 plus years, to include cats and dogs. I have also done pet sitting many times for families in and around Camp Hill, PA. I am currently a proud momma of three amazing furry friends: a 14 year old cat, a 9 year old catahoula leopard doggies, and a very energetic 2 1/2 year old mini golden doodle. All of these animals are rescues. I am currently working a job that ends at 3:30 each week day, and am very flexible with my availability of time over the weekends. I am up very early each morning to let my two dogs out in our backyard, which is fenced in. I also administer medication to our cat at that time, along with feeding all of my pets. All of our pets have free range of our house, but our youngest dog can be crated at times when necessary. I also love taking both of our dogs for walks every night.

About: I have had the pleasure of caring for dogs of various breeds and sizes, providing attentive and loving care while their owners were away. My responsibilities have included feeding, administering medications (if required), walking, playing, and ensuring the dogs' overall well-being. I have a strong understanding of canine behavior, ensuring that each dog feels comfortable and safe in my care. I also make it a priority to follow any specific instructions from the owner, such as dietary needs or special routines. Through my dog sitting experience, I have developed excellent communication skills with both pets and owners, ensuring a positive experience for all involved. I’m currently working full time Monday-Thursday/Friday. My work hours are typically from 6AM until 3:30/4 PM. I can easily care for dogs after work, as well as before if an overnight is requested. I have 2 Golden retrievers myself, so I am used to playing fetch for hours as long as nice walks at the end of the day.
