Dog Walking Ephrata

“Rudy loves walks with Dina! Dina is respectful, communicates promptly and gives detailed updates about her scheduled times with Rudy. She is knowledgeable about dog handling and use of various tools/methods per owner’s request. I always feel that Rudy is safe, happy and well exercised while in Dina’s care. Highly recommend.”

About: Hi! I’m 20 years old and have loved animals my whole life. I currently have a 3-year-old pitbull, 2-year-old rat, and a 7-year-old horse, and I’ve been riding horses for as long as I can remember. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me for years to feed, care for, and spend time with their pets. I’m reliable, patient, and truly enjoy making animals feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I’m a hairstylist with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the love, attention, playtime, and care they deserve! I’m usually most available Fridays through Mondays, with flexible evening availability during the week as well. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home. I care deeply about making animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away, and I treat every home with the same respect and care I would want for my own. I’m reliable, responsible, and committed to creating a safe, stress-free environment for both you and your pets.

About: We’re an empty nest couple with no children or other pets in the home. We recently lost our beloved dog and while we’re enjoying the freedom of not having a pet, we still love caring for furry friends! Our home has a fully fenced yard and we’re ready to provide a safe, loving environment for your dog while you’re away! We own a business and operate out of our home so there’s always someone around to give your pet attention, feedings and potty breaks throughout the day. We provide attentive, loving care for your pet. Dogs are let out on a regular schedule for potty breaks, exercise, and fresh air. Weather permitting, they’ll enjoy supervised playtime in our fenced in yard. We give plenty of attention, belly rubs and companionship so your pup feels safe.

About: Hi, I'm Bob – a retired non-profit professional and lifelong animal lover based in Ephrata, PA. With over 50 years of experience caring for dogs and other pets, I offer reliable, compassionate pet sitting services right in your neighborhood. Whether it's daily walking the dog, feeding or long-term caring, I am anxious to care for your pet. As someone who now has the time and flexibility to focus on what I love, I treat every pet like family. Over the years, I've cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments – from energetic puppies to senior companions – and I'm happy to provide references from longtime pet owners who trust me with their beloved animals. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my lifestyle as a retired individual with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals. Without the demands of a 9-to-5 job, I have the time and energy to provide dedicated, one-on-one care to pets in a calm and comfortable environment. Whether it’s daily check-ins, overnight stays, or long walks, I’m able to adjust to your pet’s routine and needs — and I truly enjoy the companionship they bring into my life. For me, this isn’t just a side job — it’s a meaningful way to stay active, helpful, and connected to the community. Some pets are happiest in their own surroundings — and I’m happy to come to them. I offer drop-in visits, walks, or extended stays depending on your needs. While you're away, I’ll keep your pet’s routine consistent and provide updates, photos, and peace of mind. I respect your home and your pet’s habits and will treat both with the same care and responsibility I’d expect for my own.

About: My whole live I have always had animals and/or was surrounded by them. I have taken care of families pets and homes since I was around 10 and have had my own pet care experience since I was around 6. Pets are family. And with me, they will be treated as such! This summer my availability is open and flexible due to only working part time. I have a lot of weekends open and even more weekdays. During my time with your pets, I will focus on keeping them active and using enrichment techniques when needed. If you have pets with a bit more anxiety, we can also relax at home.

About: I have taken care of dogs in one way or another for most of my life. I have had a pet, either a dog, cat, hamster or a horse all of my life. A couple of years ago I started sitting for friends pets and the last six months of last year I worked for a couple who ran a pet sitting business. I did dog walking, cat feeding and care, and some overnight visits. I am not an expert trainer but I went through all the puppy classes with my border collie and spent a couple of years training for agility. I am semi retired so I have a very flexible schedule. I work at home on my online business. I can easily accommodate pet sitting visits round my schedule. I am very cautious when taking care of other peoples pets because I know how important they are to their families. My own dog is a treasured part of our family.

“Kathy is warm & genuine and she took excellent care of Rudy! Her communication is prompt and Rudy was a fan from the get go. Highly recommend!”

About: I have done plenty of dog sitting for friends, who go out of town, I currently am a cat owner, and understand the different behaviors between each. I would love to come play with/ walk your pup, or check in on the cats, top off any food or water, what ever the need is. I’m currently very available all day, and can come by to walk/play with your pup, or pop in on a cat to give it some attention. Even if it’s just to fill up a water bowl. I have had pets all my life, dogs and cats. Currently have a cat, Mrs. Pizza, a calico cat. I a travel across the US as a healthcare professional, and my cat comes with me. We have been to 25 states!

About: With over a decade of pet care experience, I specialize in feeding, walking, grooming, playing with and bathing dogs and cats. Recently, I’ve also expanded my skills to include nail trimming and grinding, ensuring my furry friends receive comprehensive and loving care. I currently work part time so I should be available often to provide care for your pets. Spending time at home allows me to offer plenty of care and attention to the family pets, so I can easily use that experience in caring for yours. Regrettably, I am unable to provide personal home sitting services at this time, as my pets exhibit reactive behavior and do not adapt well to unfamiliar animals in their environment. I appreciate your understanding in this matter. I am committed to ensuring your pet's happiness and well-being. I am more than willing to follow any routines you and your pet have established to maintain consistency. Your pet’s safety is my highest priority, and I will take all necessary measures to protect them at all times. Thank you for entrusting me with their care.

“Amanda is trustworthy and was great with my dog. My dog is usually not that friendly but he liked Amanda right away. Really loved the daily updates and pics. Amanda did a great job and I will not hesitate to contact her again.”

About: I love playing, loving, and just spending time with animals. For as long as I’ve remembered there’s always been pets in my home. I will treat your babies as if they’re my own. Whatever you need done, I’ll be there and I’ll do it with care and grace. Currently I only work about 20 hours a week and have a lot of time to spare. I can drop in to check on your animals at anytime, and I can take them on long walks (or shorter if necessary), during the day or evening 3/4 times a week. Even on my work days, I will be available all morning for whichever services you need. I live in a development with a lot of space to walk dogs, I also have my own car for transportation whenever necessary. I’m very familiar with giving any kind of medication to animals, and/or feeding and walks on time.

“Amanda was very prompt with her arrival and messages! This was my first rover experience and it was such a delight thanks to Amanda’s energy and attentiveness. You can tell she loves what she does and cares deeply about the pets she handles.”

“She arrives with a smile and on time. She walks our 77lb pup with no problem. Our dogs truly do like het and warmed up to her quickly. We are pleased with Barb. She will be used going forward as both a dog walker and dog sitter. - Jenn”

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve cared for a wide range of pets — from cats and dogs to small animals. I have three dogs of my own, so I understand the importance of routine, patience, and genuine love when it comes to pet care. My dogs currently live with my parents 2 miles down the road from me! My experience includes handling multiple pets at once, caring for senior dogs, and understanding different personalities and energy levels. I treat every pet like family and always go the extra mile to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I work early mornings at Hershey Hospital and typically finish around 4:30 PM, which gives me plenty of time for evening walks, drop-ins, and overnight care if needed. On my days off, I’m fully available for daytime care as well. I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pets get the care and attention they deserve! For the safety and comfort of your pets, I care for them in their own familiar environment — your home — where they feel most relaxed and secure. I follow all of your instructions carefully to keep their routine as normal as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs they may have. I always prioritize their well-being and treat your home and pets with the utmost respect and care.
