Dog Walkers in Fortney, PA

About: Taking care of dogs and cats has been my specialty since I was a child! I have had 8 dogs of all kinds, as well as 10 cats, not including my grandmother’s. My family and neighbors would trust me to feed and water their pets while they were away. I am great at crating puppies and socializing feral/young kittens. It’s always a pleasure to brush or bathe pets depending on their size! I am working a part-time job at Petsmart so my day is already filled with furry faces! But I will still have plenty of days where I can come take care of your puppy or kitty! My schedules are usually two weeks out so I have plenty of notice of when I am free. Contact me of a day when you’d like me to care for your pet and I will let you know the earliest I am available that day! Unfortunately I am not in a position to invite pets into my home… I am figuring out my living situation and will update this section when I have a suitable place for pets to visit!

“Thanks for taking care of my little boy!!”

“Chloe showed up on time and that is a win in my book of past pet sitters who didn’t show up without notice. Reliability is #1. I will request Chloe for future needs.”

About: I have been around animals my whole life starting with dogs and progressing into all sorts of 4-H animals! I currently have horses, dogs and cats, but care for animals at a non-profit farm that includes: goats, chickens, turkeys and birds! I have been pet sitting since I was a young teenager and have continued doing it as a young adult because I enjoy it so much! I am currently a teacher so I have evenings and summers off to offer my services ! I would love to get to know your animals! I provide services in your home! This could be potty breaks in your backyard or walks. I will ensure to leave everything the way that I have found it and treat your pets as if they are my own family!

“We couldn’t be happier with the amazing care our dog received while we were away on vacation. Lauren went above and beyond to make sure our pup felt loved, comfortable, and well-exercised every single day. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our dog was in such capable and caring hands. From daily walks and playtime to thoughtful updates and photos, everything was handled with professionalism and genuine love for animals. Our dog absolutely adored her and it showed! We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, which says everything about the quality of care provided. We are so grateful and highly recommend Lauren’s services to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and truly exceptional with dogs!”

“Andrey gave me a very prompt reply, and we scheduled a meet & greet. My dog, Angel, liked him right away, and they both seemed very comfortable with each other from the first meeting. Andrey was very thorough with the questions he asked. His first sitting went very well, and I would recommend Andrey, expecially as he sent me a few pictures, a complete report and was very responsive with questions I asked afterwards. I will also be booking him again in the near future.”

About: I’m Alex and I currently have one pitbull so I am A 24/7 dog mom! I love hiking and being out in nature. I have a high energy personality that is perfect for wearing any pup out. Growing up my parents owned dogs of all sizes and personalities (Dalmatian, Akitas, border collie, and jack russel) I love the Lower Allen dog park and would gladly take any dogs there with permission! My previous rescue pit had an abusive past which sadly caused some behavioral issues. Due to that I am more than comfortable watching any dogs that may be a little rough around the edges. I have no problem giving any daily medication needed. I’m just a fun loving dog owner who would love to give your dog wonderful care and attention! I am a stay at home mom so my days are pretty open. I also have access to flexible free child care through grandparents so I don’t have to have my child with me during any dog visits or stays. This allows me to be able to work with your needs! I’m available for caring overnight in your home where your pup is most comfortable! Lots of attention and if they’re allowed in the bed or on the couch they’ll be right there next to me. I am not currently available to be hosting animals at my own home.

About: I’m 19 and have experience with 3 of my dogs who are all very different! I’ve been a pet sitter and walked my neighbors dogs as well as volunteering at a shelter in the past. I’m currently a college student so only have a couple in person classes a day so I’m pretty flexible! I also have a part time job mostly at night but they are short shifts so I can work around that. I have worked with dogs at homes who have a fenced in yard as well as open yards. My house is also currently fenced in!

About: I have a rich background in caring for a variety of animals, from cats and dogs to small pets. Over the years, I've developed a deep understanding of animal behavior, allowing me to create a nurturing and safe environment. My experience includes administering medications, managing dietary needs, and providing enrichment activities tailored to each pet's personality. Whether it's daily walks, play sessions, or simply offering companionship, my commitment to animal welfare drives me to ensure every pet feels loved and cared for. I currently am a fulltime student online, so my days are mostly free. I can adjust my schedule around whenever your pet needs care! I don't have a set class time so I am very flexible with scheduling. We currently have a Shepard/lab mix named Beau who is almost 8 years old! Although I don't offer boarding in my house, you can ensure I will treat your pet as if it were my own.

About: I'm a dedicated and passionate Certified Veterinary Technician, who received her license in 2023. I have background in both general practice and emergency medicine. Currently exploring a new change of pace out of the clinic. I've had many pets over the years, all whom I have loved dearly. However, my love for animals all started when I was just a little kid, when my parents adopted my 4-legged, golden retriever best friend. She changed my life forever. From then on, I wanted to help change others' lives and their pets' lives for the better. My compassion for animals has only blossomed since. I graduated with a Bachelors of Science from an AVMA accredited college - Wilson College. There, I majored in Veterinary Medical Technology and double minored in Animal Studies and Biology. I also worked in our on-campus kennels, providing exceptional care for dogs, cats, birds, and laboratory animals during my Junior and Senior years. I am so excited and prepared to care diligently for you fur babies! I am currently taking a hiatus from traditional employment to focus on personal growth goals. I am available everyday, Monday-Sunday, at any time of day to meet your pet care needs! I will gladly be of service for drop-in’s, dog walking, cat care, or overnight stays (duration x 1 week). I will only be offering pet sitting at your home, where I will keep a watchful eye on your pooch/kitty throughout my stay, providing a trustful companion for them while you're away. I can easily crate any dog/cat if necessary. I will ensure that the environment is kept clean and organized for your return. If any pet needs medication administered, it will be done with a fear-free approach and complete accuracy.

About: I’ve had a heart for animals since I was young, and have owned both cats and dogs - ranging from low-energy Pugs to high-energy Boxers - for the majority of my life. My pet care experience mostly includes sitting for friends and family members, and caring for my own dog, a 6-year old Mini Poodle mix. I’ve taken care of senior animals with a variety of health conditions, and have no problem providing medications from pills to eye drops. I also have some experience working with reactive dogs, as my dog deals with reactivity issues. Through a 6-session training course we completed with a professional trainer in the summer of 2025, I’ve learned techniques to improve behavior on walks, as well as a long list of enrichment activities to help your high-energy pups burn energy throughout the day. The best days for me to care for your pet in Lancaster or York are Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends. If requested, I may be able to accommodate services in Lancaster on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. I thrive on routines and like to keep somewhat of a normal routine for my dog. This includes feedings, giving medications, multiple walks, and enrichment activities (in or outside, depending on weather). My dog has anxiety and spring/summer are the most difficult for her, so I keep on music or background sounds while in the house, and make sure she is always on a leash when outside. I am willing and open to following any routines you have for your pet, however, I am not comfortable with electric fences or shock collars. I always have my phone easily accessible and am a quick communicator, so I can provide pictures, texts, or calls as requested if you’d like to check up on your fur baby.

“Maura exceeded my every expectation. She is a lovely person and I had great confidence that my dog was in good hands.”

I have a cat named Cloudy, she is a rag doll and is super silly. I have administered her medications and eye medications as well. I will be able to do that if needed. I currently am an Esthetician, and work part time. I have a pretty flexible schedule. I would just schedule dogs/cats in my time inbetween. I have a cat at home no dogs. Cloudy is allowed anywhere except basement and a few rooms downstairs and one upstairs. She usually is in the living room and my room.

About: I am very patient and treat every dog like they’re my own. I will give them a lot of love and respect. Thank you !! I have a lot of extra free time and will be willing to make some time for your doggies!! Whenever you need me:) thank you!! I have a huge green grass area in front of my house, a great backyard at my gma’s house and a great neighborhood for walks!

About: I recently transitioned from the Veterinary field to human medicine! My life revolves around the safety and well-being of furry friends and their families! I've previously worked in the Vet/Animal Welfare field for three years and have 2 cats myself. I've always loved animals, have taken care of strays outdoors, rescued pups stranded outside and dedicated my education and life to helping animals thrive. I'm trained in reading dog and cat behavior/body language and have completed a course on Animal Behavior and Welfare. I'm also certified in Pet First-Aid and CPR and eager to meet you and your companions! I'm currently working full time at a hospital, but have a couple days off weekly, so I'd like to help some folks out who might be working as well or going out of town and need someone to watch over their fur babies, whenever I have some free time. <3 I practiced "fear free" standards in my workspace and will apply those same standards to your furry family members if/when they need to be bathed, crated, fed, walked, etc. Regardless of how trained a pup or kitty is or if your property has a fence, I do not believe in leaving animals outside unsupervised, so they're always being looked after, even while they enjoy some sunbathing. I do everything in my ability to make sure every animal I come into contact with is as comfortable as they can be.

About: I have grown up around dogs of all sizes, and have been providing pet sitting services for almost 10 years. Every pet owner deserves a reliable pet sitter, and every fur baby deserves someone to feel safe and loved with when mommy/daddy is gone! I have experience with special needs animals, including administering medication (eye drops, oral medication, changing bandages, etc.) My experience ranges from small designer breeds like Dachshunds and Terriers, to Boxers, Greyhounds, Goldens, and everything in between. I judge animals only by the specific animal, not their breed or any stigma surrounding them. I also have significant experience with cats, including special needs cats. When it comes to pocket pets (guinea pigs, hamsters, etc), reptiles, and birds, I am well versed in their care as well, being an owner of exotics myself! I am open to any discussion, and hope I can help make your life, and your fur babies’ lives easier! I am happy to accommodate last minute requests, and will always be transparent about any potential conflicts I may have: No matter the day or time, I’m your fur friend! You and your fur baby will always have my utmost respect and care, whether in your home or mine. I am happy to provide frequent updates with pictures, or limit contact to as needed if you’re looking for some respite! I am employed part time, which means I am able to accommodate all kinds of requests! I mostly work Monday, Tuesday, and Friday, but am happy to perform visits before or after work, and any time during my off days. I am always happy to flex my schedule to meet your needs. I always structure my visits based solely off of the comfort of the animal. Aloof kitty that prefers I keep my distance? No problem! I’ll make sure they know I’m there, and leave the rest up to them. Cuddly puppy? Sounds great! Extra cuddles come at no charge.
