About: Adopted a whippet 5 years ago named Boo. She’s a certified therapy dog and is incredibly well behaved. I myself taught her how to sit, stay, twirl in a circle, give paw and to touch her nose to my fist. I’ll have no issue training your puppy, just as much as I’ll have no issue in administering medications to your doggy as well. Any special routines they may have as well, I have no problem following it to a T! I’m currently unemployed so I’ll be available anytime you may need me to watch your pets. Weekdays, weekends and even staying the night! I also have my own car so if for whatever reason an emergency vet trip is needed to be made, I can do so safely and quickly. I have a fenced in backyard and a 4 year old whippet who loves to play chase. Mostly because you can’t catch her. She has her own kennel that she sleeps in. Anything you have listed for me to do in your home, will be completed, while ensuring your pet is getting enough attention of course. I will follow your instructions to a T.

“Emma is a exceptionally professional, courteous, responsive and thoughtful care taker of dogs. She is sensitive to the owner's and dog's needs. I recommend Emma without reservation and she remains my first choice when walking my dog!”

“Kerrie was absolutely exceptional with our 7 year old husky, Kira. She was on time, incredibly communicative, and very understanding of Kira’s unorthodox routine. When circumstances and asks changed, Kerrie went above and beyond to accommodate with pleasure. We confidently recommend her for your pet needs and will absolutely be using Kerrie in the future.”

“As always, Elizabeth did a stellar job with my dogs, lavishing them with attention and ensuring that they got plenty of exercise. I recommend her highly.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and animals and have always loved caring for them. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and look after their pets while they’re away. I’m very patient, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals—they make me so happy, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I work part-time remotely, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m home often to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m available for daytime visits, walks, and drop-ins during the week, as well as evenings and weekends depending on your needs. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I provide a safe, calm, and loving home environment for pets. While my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is fully supervised and dogs are kept on a leash for safety. Inside, pets have a clean, comfortable space with lots of attention, play, and care. I follow any specific instructions you provide to make sure your pet feels secure, happy, and well taken care of.

“Stephanie did a great job! As soon as she came in she knew how to handle my high energy Ginger. She was sweet with her, but also knew how to kindly correct her when she was over excited and calmed her down.”

About: I'm a chemist turned Rover sitter, specializing in training, sitting, and walking dogs of all ages, sizes, and levels of demand. I trained my Great Dane to become a therapy dog and cared for him full-time before he passed. In my free time, I help at a local tutoring center, teaching Math and Science to K-12 learners, leveraging my former teaching experience. I have a flexible schedule and loads of energy for drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays. I've attended AKC Star Puppy, Teen Puppy Obedience, and Therapy Dog training with my Great Dane. Having had a sick Great Dane also included safely carrying a 150-lbs dog into and out of a car, administering medicine, caring for post-op incisions, and digitally recording his daily health observations for his vets. My daily routine mostly involved caring for and playing with my pup while attending midday drop-ins and tutoring. He walked daily, played on our newly installed artificial turf in our fenced-in yard, solved puzzles, and fell asleep getting scratches and watching doggy TV. Now that my care is no longer needed, I have a lot of free time and energy to burn as I search for part-time volunteer opportunities. Shoes are always off, and muddy paws are always wiped when entering your home. I always start our session by wellness checks on your baby and the surroundings before we begin, and I always finish our sessions with wind-down scratches before I leave. I was a college athlete and still play high-intensity sports three times a week; If your baby is high-energy, we would likely end up running around for most of our time together! No poop or messes are ever left behind or undocumented. I send an average of 5-7 photos per visit, and you’re always welcome to request more photos or videos to feel confident that your pup is having their best time! Doggy daycare: I own a 3,000-square-foot ranch-style home with easy sliding-door access to a fenced-in yard with a heated pool that opens in the summer! Our home areas are thoroughly dog-proofed, free of tripping and choking hazards, toxic plants or cleaning agents, and access to food or trash. The entire play area is visible from the kitchen while prepping food and medication for your pup. Minimal traffic on our street makes for ideal loose-leash walking trips. When not playing, your dog can enjoy watching doggy TV on any of my six (or seven?) orthopedic dog beds.

About: Looking for someone who will keep your pup active and entertained? I love outdoor adventures, play sessions, and making sure dogs get the mental and physical stimulation they need. Whether it’s fetch in the yard, neighborhood walks, or cuddle time afterward, your dog will get plenty of attention, affection, and fun! During college I began looking after others fur babies as a side job and have loved it since! I love all animals; dogs, cats & reptiles. I’ve been looking after others pets for over 6 years now! I currently have a dog with separation anxiety, and I’m looking to make this full time! I currently work as a property manager, but I am looking to transition into a different field. I believe that pursuing this opportunity is a meaningful step toward finding greater fulfillment and long-term satisfaction in my work. I currently live in the country with a SEVEN acres of land ready to play on! While it is not fenced in, it is a tucked away property away from the road!

About: I've worked for the Mckean County SPCA as an Animal Caretaker, Creekside Acres in Boarding/ Doggy daycare and Petco as a Guest Experience Specialist, and taken care of various pets of my own for years! I've help raise kittens and puppies many time as well! I've rescued animals too! I currently have open availability from Friday to Sunday to care for your pets! And occasional availability on Holidays. Monday-Thursday are noon or after 5:30pm at this time (depending on location). I give full attention and care to all pets in my home and other's, any instructions given by the owner will always be followed strictly.

About: I have always had a love for animals since I can remember. I rescued and rehabbed two feral kittens that were living under a dumpster to my own rescued pup. I have had guest dogs in my home from tiny to extra large. They always received the same care as my own dog from sleeping in bed with us to plenty of walks and outdoor time. They will be in great, responsible hands with me! I currently have my own business so I make my schedule. I can be flexible with days of the week and times even with last minute notice. I always ensure the pets are secure via leash before leaving the home to go for walks or when they are "in" for the day (crates, baby gate - no matter their set up). I also gather all the information about the animal - any reactions to certain situations, recall cues etc prior to visits.

“Morgan and John were lifesavers taking our chompy little puppy for a nice long walk to burn some energy in the middle of the day when we had to return back to work full time. We’ll definitely be using them again!”
