Pet Boarding Emmaus

“Kathleen is reliable, highly observant, and genuinely passionate about animals. This was observable through her friendly and warm demeanor, and compassionate verbal and physical interactions with Haru and his responsiveness to her. Her photo update was sincerely appreciated and gave a secure sense of transparency. The environment was clean, organized and provided ample free space for indoor and outdoor movement.”

Abe O.

“Great people, great family. Stella was treated with the same love and attention that we provide her daily. They were very flexible and sent lots of pics to let us know she was ok. Their standard of care was exceptional.”

James W.

“We had a wonderful experience with Ilaira! Ours was a last-minute booking, and we were a bit anxious about finding the right sitter for our bulldog. Ilaira immediately put us at ease with her great communication and thoughtful updates. She sent us pictures throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our pup was clearly happy and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and highly recommend her!!!”

Ewa G.

“Olivia was amazing with our big boy, Duke! She gave him lots of exercise and made him feel right at home. Olivia sent us updates of Duke’s stay with her. She is an awesome pet sitter!”

Christie W.

“Shiloh (my dog) really enjoyed her stay! She was well taken care of and in great spirits upon my return. Yahaira was very accommodating and great at communicating any relevant updates”

Steven D.

“Mayra and her husband was so warm welcoming! They let me know where Milo would be playing and hanging out. Which left me at easy leaving my baby boy. As well Mayra loves playing little games with the doggies she sent me a video of my Milo playing the game and doing so well! She shared pictures as well and always communicated with me when i would ask about Milo. Milo came back so happy ❤️ I would definitely book again with Mayra! Thank you so much!”

“Pam is kind, compassionate, and took great care of my pups. I was very worried about them but she went out of her way to help in any way she could. I strongly recommend Pam if you are looking for one of the best sitters in the area!!!”

Khoa N.

“We had a meet and greet to be sure Teddy would be a good fit for their family. Things went well so we scheduled his stay. There was good communication prior to drop off and daily updates with pictures during his stay. From pictures we could see they included him as part of the family and he got lots of attention and exercise. When we picked Teddy up he looked happy. Sarah and Doug said he did well and was welcome to stay again. We felt very good about the experience and would book again.”

Joanne N.

“Carlina took excellent care of my senior dog. I received frequent updates and pictures while we were away, which made me feel so much more at ease. My dog came home happy and tired, exactly what I expected. I would absolutely use Carlina again in the future.”

Amy H.

“When we saw Amanda’s large fenced in yard and huge deck, we knew our dog would love the freedom to run and sit outside. Amanda sent photos and videos every few days to keep us updated. We were very pleased with the care given. We will definitely use Amanda again when we need a dog sitter.”

Carol B.

“Kind, loving, fun home. Great family and friendly dogs. Nice fenced yard for play. I will definitely leave my dog with Janette and her family again in the future.”

Peter C.

“Very simple…. Bianka is incredible! We received daily updates and pictures. This is the first time we left our dog with someone besides family - so at first we were nervous. What we soon realized was she gave incredible care to our pup. We will absolutely use her again!!!!”

Sheri B.

“Hugo had the best time with Amber and her cute dog Zeus! Hugo made friends and he always going to be back to Amber! Thanks for taking a good care of him.”

Sam A.

“If Joan is available, book her! Our boy immediately felt at home, and was loved and cared for so well. He was happy to see us….but was in no hurry to leave. Joan adapted everything to his needs, asked all the right questions, gave him lots of attention and kept us updated. It is hard to find the right sitter, and we will travel out of our way for Joan to sit Mac again.”

About: Hello! I'm an energetic and enthusiastic individual with a HUGE love of dogs of all sizes. I love them so much that I go out of my way to say hello and pet dogs on the street (with permission, of course!). I love playing fetch, tug, and running around with dogs. I even love brushing them, so if you are in need of a good grooming for your friend, I'll raise my paw for the task! I used to have a rescue pitty, so rescues have a soft spot in my heart. I once went on a trip and slept in a bed with three super sweet rescue dogs, coming home smelling of dog...and I couldn't have been happier! I've pet-sit cats* ever since I was a child, and have also watched rabbits and a turtle. I have personally owned and cared for fish, reptiles, and a dog. I currently have a few fish and lots of plants. I have worked with a dog with anxiety and, though not a certified professional, helped train, gain trust, and saw improvement. When a client of mine was about to get a puppy, I read puppy books so that I could do my best when I cared for her and her sister. If you'd like my help with your pet, PLEASE READ MY PROFILE DETAILS FULLY BEFORE SENDING A REQUEST/MESSAGE. I will know if this has not been done and it'll save us both time if you do. I currently work from home. If house-sitting, I could stay at your house if you like, so long as I'd have strong, fast wifi and the ability to comfortably work from my computer. Whatever works for you and your pet and our combined schedules! Please note: I request scheduling a one-time Drop-In as a meet-and-greet to account for my time when we first meet. If you are out of my service area, I may discuss a fee to cover mileage for bookings. At your home, it's your rules! I like to leave a space as I've entered it: clean and as if I wasn't even there. I like playtime with pets and like to send photo updates as well as text updates (unless you need peace and quiet, which I respect, too). I do NOT sit at homes in which cameras are used upon me inside the home out of personal privacy. *Please note: I can and have cared for many cats, but am allergic. If I stay overnight at your house, I will need a cat-free zone to sleep. I do not take house-sitting requests without this zone or with more than 2 cats. I am vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19 and take CDC-recommended precautions with illnesses. If I care for your pet, please know that I may use their picture, including them being in or around your home, on my profile. If you are not comfortable with this, please discuss this with me, as I value everyone's privacy. At my home, pets will need the ability to go up and down stairs, though I can pick them up to do so if this is requested. The floors are mainly wood (tile in the kitchen); most floors have carpets on them. Dogs may need their own bed or designated place to sleep, as they are not allowed on the bed. The yard is not fenced, so leashing is a must for safety, and walking will be on town streets with potential occasional passing cars. I do not generally take dogs out in the car, but, should we need to, my car has a dog back seat cover and seatbelt (I ask that you please supply a harness in case we should need it). For boarding and day care, I request that we do our meet-and-greet at your home first so that I can see what your pet is used to and assess if I will be able to accommodate their needs. If we agree that this seems plausible, I will happily invite you to my home for your assessment so that you can feel safe knowing where your fur family will stay. I do not do boarding or day care for cats. If you'd like my care for your pet, please mention the phrase "safety is my #1 concern" in your request to me. I have been harassed by predators on Rover and take everyone's safety very seriously.

“Julie and Caleb were absolutely amazing with our two boxers, Laila and Apollo! From the very beginning, their communication was outstanding—they kept us updated daily and sent plenty of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Laila and Apollo had the best time playing with their kids and running around their large property. It was clear they were treated like part of the family. Every photo showed two very happy pups! They came home tired from all the fun and full of love. We couldn’t have asked for better dog sitters and would trust Julie and Caleb again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!”

Shayne L.

“Amanda took care of our puppy very good. She sent us pictures of our pup and updates on how he is doing during his stay. Highly recommend Amanda!”

Abhinay R.

“Sabrina was amazing with our toy poodle! She took him on walks and the dog park and sent us pictures of him everyday. Our dog got along with her dog and they had a great time together :)”

Ana V.

“We are so thankful to have found Alexa to watch our lab, Bailey! She was very quick to respond to messages. She has a great backyard for the dogs to play. She sent lots of pictures and messages to update us on how Bailey was doing. We would definitely use her again!”

About: My father was a dog trainer my whole childhood, exposing me to a love for all dogs! I’ve fostered and had my own dogs my entire life. I’ve had the pleasure of helping my families dogs and others. Walking, feeding, bath time, and playing are all up my alley with your fur babies. I am currently a college student at Drexel University, which can provide me with free time. On days like Mondays, Wednesday, and Fridays I’m free in the morning and afternoons and nights. On weekends, I’m almost always free. I’ve always been gentle with dogs and plan to care for your dogs accordingly. I have training skills to help even with difficult puppies. Whatever you need, I am willing to help!
