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.

About: I have grown up having dogs in my life, as well as the luxury of being able to watch friends and families pets over the past 3 years. I have experience with not only dogs, but cats as well. I'm also experienced with watching multiple dogs at the same time. Because I work from home, I'm able to work anywhere, which has always come in handy. Currently I'm not able to have dogs of my own, because of my apartment, but the goal is to find a place that will allow me to have my own fur baby. I currently work remotely, so I have the flexibility to have my schedule work around what's best for you and your pets! So your pets will get the love and attention they deserve! I don't want any pet to feel anxious while their owner is away, so I make sure to take the time to best understand the needs of each client, so I can make sure the transition goes smoothly.

About: My entire life has been spent surrounded by all kinds of animals. I have personally owned dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, goats and birds. I have worked in grooming shops and with service dog trainers to advance my knowledge and am always finding new ways to improve! I also have experienced with medically complicated animals, such as diabetes and am comfortable administering any medications needed. I work full time, Monday-Thursday so I am typically more available on the weekends but am willing to do weekday stays for animals who are used to a full time work schedule. Instructions from the owner on safety precautions will always be taken seriously and with great attention. No one wants to worry about their pet escaping while on vacation! I am a detail oriented person so you can rest assured that everything will be done with due diligence

About: I have been taking care of the pets of my family and friends since I was a child, and have taken care of cats, dogs, birds, fish, you name it! I have consistent families who ask me to pet-sit, and have pet-sat with up to 3 dogs in the home as well as a cat and bird! I have a dog of my own who pulls a lot when she walks, so I can handle that too! I have cared for senior animals and puppies, and animals with medical needs & diapers, plus homes with multiple different kinds of animals. I have cared for many many different breeds of dogs, from newfoundland's to chihuahuas. I have also cared for shy and anxious dogs, so I know how to approach them! I work a hybrid position, so I can spend the majority of the day with your animal, however one day a week I work the full day at the office. I have an animal, so my schedule already revolves around making sure I care for her and don't leave her alone too long. While I am pet-sitting, I have family members who will care for her. I can do drop-in's/hanging out with the pet for the day or multiple hours and then going home to sleep, or in-home pet care. I am less available for in-home as it depends on care for my own animal! I adjust my care based on the needs of the pet- if they are active and want to play, that's what we can do during a check-in, if they are a cuddle bug, then I will give them that attention during a check-in.

About: I provide calm, consistent, and personalized care for every dog I work with. I take the time to understand each pup’s routine, preferences, and personality, so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I make every walk feel like the highlight of their day, whether that means a sniff-fest adventure, a power-walk with purpose, or a slow, joyful stroll for the senior sweethearts. 🐾 Puppy pro: I love helping little ones learn good walking manners, burn off their zoomies, and explore the world safely. 🐾 Senior-friendly: I’m extra gentle with older pups, giving them relaxed, comfortable walks that match their pace. 🐾 Confidence builder: Shy or nervous dog? I move at their speed and use positive energy to help them feel brave outside. I’m all about tail wags, happy trots, and making sure your dog comes home smiling and satisfied. With me, your pup gets more than a walk—they get a mini adventure every single time. We just moved to the Lancaster County area in September of 2025 and I am currently a stay at home mom. My hours are open almost every day! Pets in my care are treated like family. I know how much your pet means to you and I take that responsibility seriously. I will care for you pet as if they were my own.

About: My name is Gabrielle, and I have never lived a day of my life without dogs or cats as close companions. Animals have always been part of my household and my heart. I bring over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of breeds, including Poodles, German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Beagles, Chinese Cresteds, and cats of all personalities. I am currently fully available, as I am no longer working outside the home. This allows me to provide flexible scheduling, consistent supervision, and attentive care throughout the day. My experience includes: • Assisting with birthing • Basic obedience and leash training • Puppy training (potty training, basic commands, leash manners) with 5 years of professional experience • Working with shy or anxious animals • Post-surgical care • Senior pet care and comfort support I also have a 2-year-old child in my home. My child has been raised around animals and is calm, gentle, and always supervised. Safety, boundaries, and respect for each pet’s comfort level are a top priority. I am happy to discuss whether my home environment is the right fit for your pet. I have access to beautiful local nature parks, perfect for safe adventures and enrichment during the warmer months. After a day with me, your dog will likely enjoy a well-earned nap. I love engaging, playing, and bonding with every animal in my care. For senior pets, I am experienced in creating a calm, comfortable environment that supports their specific needs. My home has three separate rooms to ensure dogs can be separated when needed, especially to prevent overstimulation or hyper play. If you have a special-needs pet that requires constant attention, I am fully willing and able to provide 24/7 care. I believe in working closely with pet owners to ensure their animals receive consistent, loving, and attentive care. I would love the opportunity to help care for your pet and look forward to meeting you. Thank you! Weekly Pet Care Routine • Fully available for pet care with flexible scheduling. Any unsupervised time will be approved with owner prior. • Structured daily routine with consistent feeding, walks, play, training, and rest Tuesdays (Medical Appointments) • Appointments scheduled in advance • No new intakes or transitions during appointment windows • Focus on calm care: feeding, potty breaks, meds, rest, and monitoring Thursdays (Daughter Home) • Daughter home during the day • One supervised outing from 11–12 (library) • Only crate-trained or independent pets during that hour • No arrivals or departures scheduled 11–12 • Pets separated as needed using three-room setup Other Weekdays • Ideal for puppies, training-focused care, and higher-energy dogs • Nature park walks and enrichment activities I have two friendly dogs that warm up to new visitors quickly. I have the ability to separate for feeding, separate for bed time, and a decent sized yard for play time and fresh air.
