About: I have had indoor cats for the past 24 years. I have pet sat for dogs and cats personally. I have house sat twice for a dachshund and doberman. These were contacts from my mom’s pet sitting job years ago. I had a beta fish for about 3 years. I can walk and play with the dogs and cats, feed them, etc. I will provide what is going on and what is being done, sharing pictures and videos as much is wanted. I currently work full time Monday through Friday. I can work from anywhere. I am available evenings during the week and available on the weekend. This is a side hustle and to offer some help for anyone that need it. We have a dog and a cat. We aren’t sure how our dog and cat would be to other pets in our home. I am happy to come to yours. Whatever is needed.

“Danielle was great! I would highly recommend. My boarding place fell through last minute due to a scheduling mix up. I was able to book Danielle only a few days in advance. My dog, Nala, was so happy when I got home. You can tell she had lots of care and love! I always appreciate when people make connections with my animals. It makes the dress of leaving animals during travel a bit easier.”

About: I have 2 years of veterinary experience in VCA Lancaster aiding in the health of our beloved patients. My pet care journey has brought me to NEADS world class service dogs! I have learned the power of positive reinforcement and essential enrichment to a dogs happiness. There are so many tools in my belt at this point I feel I can provide an adequate setting for a calm and happy pup! My skills extend to dog walking, fear analyzation, proper exercise, and well balanced snacks for praise and health. I love nothing more than caring for dogs and giving them a place to thrive in!! I work full time, but have the privilege of bringing personal dogs to work every day. I do have a pet dog who is well trained and spayed. She accompanies me to work where they would get frequent bathroom breaks, play time (one on one, or in a group). I end the day with a 30 minute walk before heading home for the night. At home it is R&R time!! I am dedicated to taking pets out to use the bathroom whenever needed this is not an issue for me. I follow meals given by the client pretty strictly. I have a list of approved fruits and veggies for treats if the client elects they want that to be incorporated. I also have loads of enrichment activities such as snuffle mats, interactive feeders, and tug toys to let that pup get out any unwanted stress or fear. These can travel with me!
About: I have had dogs and cats, and also a horse for most of my life! My current dog is a 10 year old rescue from Tennessee, and he’s the love of my life. I’ve worked very hard with a trainer with my pup, so I have some experience there. I volunteered at the humane society and ASPCA for many years off and on, and I also fostered dogs throughout college. Safe to say I have plenty of hands on experience with all sorts of pets :). I am working full time, but I have a somewhat flexible schedule! I have plenty of time throughout the day to spend some time with whatever pet needs the attention! In my home, my dog is pretty spoiled :). He is my main priority, as it is just him and myself, and it’s been that way for years! As far as other people’s pets in their home, I will follow any instructions in detail that are provided, but above all I will make sure the pet is happy and healthy and comfortable!
“Devon was great visiting our home with our nervous pups that are never separated from their humans. The pictures and updates were extremely reassuring and gave us peace of mind while away for the weekend! We will absolutely reach out again,”

About: Hello, my name is Melanie! I recently quit my job to focus on school and am looking to get back into pet care! I've grown up with a bunch of pets from dogs, and cats to more exotic animals like reptiles, ferrets, and birds. I've also worked at a pet store for 5 years, as well as my fair share of family and friends pet sitter. I currently go to school full time, and spend the rest of the time studying with my pets! In our house we have a schedule and take turns when it comes to feedings, bathroom needs, and everything in between! Personally, I own one dog myself, Kira and she likes to spend all of her time outdoors, and is a snuggle bug. Kira also eats a very specific diet as she has allergies and takes supplements. I live in a house everyone is extremely welcoming to all pets and offers a vast fenced space for playing, although I prefer to not host, pets myself. I also have training experience and focus on positive reinforcement and leash training! I'm currently in school, so I'll have plenty of time to care for your pups. I'm available weekdays. Weekends are usually open. Mondays- Anytime Tuesdays- Before 10am and After 5pm Wednesdays- Before 1:30pm and After 5pm Thursdays- before 10am and After 2pm Fridays- Before 10am and After 5pm (This will change middle of May 2026) I'm very good at following instructions and asking for clarification if needed. I always use single ingredient treats that are usually allergy friendly (lamb liver). I pride myself on being safe and respectful to everyone!
About: I have had a passion for taking care of animals since a young age. I have experience with all types of animals. I worked as a doggy daycare attendant and a veterinary assistant. I currently work at an animal shelter. I'm currently working 2 part time jobs. Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays availability with the possibility of Mondays. I'm available for dog walking, trips to the dog park and pet sitting. We do have a backyard which is not fenced in and a porch that I usually block off to let my dogs get outside for some fresh air.
About: I love animals and have been around them as long as I can remember. I have extensive experience with dogs and cats, from birth to their last breath. I believe in positive reinforcement training. I am very loving and treat all animals with respect but can be strict when required for safety. With me your babies will feel like they are at home away from home. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am available almost always and your fur babies will have lots of love and company. I have a large grassy yard, and I live near a pond and multiple trails. I also have a Chihuahua mix girl, who is very friendly and loves making new friends.
