Pet Sitting in Erly

“Katlyn is the best! She loved on my little house panther Tazz while we were away and made sure he was happy and well cared for. I always worry about him because he hates being alone and cries but her daily updates eased my worries. I returned home to a happy boy who didn’t crawl all over me immediately upon walking in the door! Hope Katlyn is available for future Tazz sitting ❤️”

About: I have watched several different animals with many different routines and medical requirements, allowing me to understand and care for animals with strict needs and routines! I work part time throughout the week which allows me to do pet care in the evenings after work or care for them full time over weekends! When caring for your pet I will follow the routines and instructions given to me by you to make sure your pets stay in a familiar routine to help with them remaining calm while with me!

“Kari was excellent with my 11yo diabetic cat! She was able to monitor his food intake and give him insulin shots when needed. When he didn't eat right away, she was able to hang around a little so the shot could be administered. I can't tell you how much I appreciated that! The daily pics were great too. Would definitely use her again.”

About: Hello! I am home for the summer and looking to spend my time with adorable pets and show them some love! I have been taking care of my two dogs since the 5th grade and I just graduated college. I love going for walks and playing fetch. I’m also content chilling on the couch and watching doggies nap. Most days I don’t have any obligations throughout the whole day and can work my daily tasks and errands around walking or checking on dogs. I always make sure my pets have water available all the time, especially in the summer. My dogs usually go on a leash when they are outside, and I feel most comfortable walking dogs with a leash. My dogs eat at the same time every day and get lots of attention when inside.

About: I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and have had experience owning other pets such as geckos, cats, and snakes. I’ve been a pet sitter for a little over two years. My true passion for pet sitting comes from my desire to be accompanied by them, dogs specifically. I work with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. Dogs of all backgrounds tend to gravitate towards me and I have never had any negative interactions. While studying for my undergrad, I was actually in charge of all the live animal specimens present on the University grounds. Feeding, exercise, and handling/care were done daily, which can explain my comfortability and familiarity with pet care. I currently am home as I finish my masters degree online so my daily schedule is fairly free. I workout and do part-time contract work when I am not doing schoolwork. I’m extremely flexible and will be willing to meet your needs as best as possible. Simply put, I treat the pets like they are my own. I ensure they are met with sufficient attention, exercise, nutrition, and safety while under my supervision. Minimizing stress is my biggest concern (my dog has separation anxiety so I know how it can be). I’ve found it helpful in the past to use my own dog as a bridge between myself and the client’s pet, as his presence tends to build confidence and reassurance.

“Anna was a wonderful gift to caring for my senior dog. She came over on an additional day, just to learn about all of the complexities involved. She corresponded well with me while I was on the other side of the country. It helped keep my anxiety over my beloved pet way down! Anna is professional and detail oriented, and I would gladly hire her again.”

About: I have owned dogs my whole life--from puppies, to elderly dogs with special requirements. I have always owned at least two dogs at a time. In addition, I have experience pet sitting. I previously looked after two dogs that were more on the aggressive side, and handled them quite well. I work full time (8am-4pm), although I am available to take care of any responsibilities in the morning and after getting off work. I have complete open availability on the weekends. I always make sure to respect other people's homes and the expectations that they have in place. Whatever needs done, I will always make sure to complete as efficiently as possible, and I will never do anything to disrespect one's home or privacy.

About: I've had cats as well as more exotic animals as pets. I recently moved to an apartment with a no pet lease, and I really miss the interaction with animals. I thought that providing pet care for others would be enjoyable, but also help other people. In addition to caring for cats and dogs, I have experience with small mammals like chinchillas, reptiles such as snakes, turtles, and lizards as well as amphibians and birds. I typically schedule pet visits in the morning and evening, allowing for playtime, feeding, waste maintenance, and medication administration if needed. I also offer overnight stays and daily check-ins for extended absences. I aim to provide reliable and kind care, ensuring your pet is safe and loved while you're away. I believe that caring for your pet in their home provides the least amount of anxiety for them. I follow all instructions carefully and ensure your pet's routine stays consistent. I provide companionship, feeding, exercise/play, and medication. Regular updates and photos are provided for your peace of mind.

About: I have taken care of friend’s and family’s animals for as long as I can remember. I love furry friends! All kinds welcome here always.

So, to assure the best safety and less stress I am willing to travel to you! For the best care.

Pet care, including feeding, exercise, playtime, and grooming, should be integrated into your daily and weekly routine to ensure your pet's well-being and happiness. Establishing a consistent schedule provides predictability and security for your pet, reducing stress and promoting healthy habits. Start the day with feeding, followed by a walk or playtime to expend energy and stimulate your pet. Incorporate short breaks for feeding, playtime, or a quick walk, especially if working from home. Dedicate time for a longer walk, play session, or quiet time for bonding and relaxation. Schedule daily or weekly grooming sessions, depending on your pet's breed and coat type. Maintain a regular feeding schedule to help regulate your pet's digestion and prevent accidents. Bathe your pet every few weeks or as needed. Brush your pet's teeth regularly. Incorporate playtime with toys and games to provide mental and physical stimulation. I Establish a consistent daily routine for feeding, exercise, and playtime.

“Amiyah is amazing! We need a backup sitter/ walker and she is working with us to get our dog more comfortable so she can do house sits when we are away. She’s kind, communicates well, and very good with updates, pictures, and report cards. I highly recommend Amiyah’”

About: Hi, I’m Jillian! What sets me apart from other dog sitters is how deeply I care for animals, not just as a job, but as a real passion. I love spending time with dogs, whether it’s taking them on peaceful walks or just being there to keep them company. I walk my own dog every day and regularly watch my neighbors’ dogs, treating each one like family. I also volunteer at an animal shelter, where walking and spending time with the dogs truly fills my cup. Every dog I care for gets my full attention, love, and respect, because to me, they’re more than pets; they’re companions who deserve the best. Right now I am on summer break. I am a teacher in Pennsylvania so I am pretty available most weekdays and weekends. I am also available during the day as well! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities, whether they’re in my home or yours. I care for every animal with the same attention and love I give my own dog, always keeping an eye on them, making sure they’re happy, secure, and never stressed. I take the time to understand each dog’s needs and routines so they feel safe and at ease. Whether it’s a walk, a drop in visit, or an overnight stay, you can trust that your pet is in caring, responsible hands with me.

About: I am a teacher just looking for some fun pooch time while earning a few extra bucks. I live an active lifestyle of my own, and put that into the work I do. I have worked with dogs at doggie day cares for about 8 years now, and have plenty of amazing experiences with dogs of all shapes and sizes. From playing to snuggling to training, I’ve done so much with dogs. I also have 3 dogs of my own. Two are beagles and one is an Australian cattle dog mix. They all are rescues! I am looking forward to doing business with you. I am a teacher so my summer time is wide open for dog walking! I love the outdoors so will make sure to take as much time as possible outside as your dog wants. I am always diligent to care for your pet as you would care for them. I know that’s how I would want someone to care for my pets.

“Christine was absolutely wonderful with our dogs!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15. I have grown up around dogs, cats, horses, and other farm animals. I have my degree in Veterinary Technician. I have a little bit of dog training experience. I have trained hunting dogs along side of my husband. I promise to care and love your little one as if they were my own. I will always be there with them. I will make sure they are safe. I am free Friday nights, Saturday and Sundays. I do work Monday - Friday. I have a very flexible work schedule. I do work for family. I can do drop offs Monday mornings on my way to work. I can do pick up Fridays when I’m off. I work from home and I live on 10 acres of lovely mountain property. I do not have a fenced yard. I do have 2 outdoor 12X10 kennels set up. I would never let a dog go out potty without me on a leash. I spend about 30 minutes outside with my own dogs every 1.5 hours. I am outside most of the day unless it’s extremely hot or cold. I am with the animals 24/7. If your dogs likes to be outside I can put them in the kennels for extra outside time. If they like to be inside I can leave them inside while I take other dogs pee. I have a Furbo camera installed so I can view them at all times. Must be good with cats.
