Dog Sitting Harrisburg

About: I can’t have a dog of my own yet, so I love giving other pups all the care and attention they deserve. I’m reliable and detail-oriented, so I’ll carefully follow every routine, and instruction. Whether your dog loves long walks or cuddling on the couch, I’ll make sure they are well cared for. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I live and work in downtown Harrisburg, and my hybrid position gives me the ability to work from home on different days each week. When I’m in the office, I’m still nearby and able to stop in for walks, potty breaks, feeding, check-ins, or extra playtime. While I’m based downtown, I also have reliable transportation and am happy to travel to homes outside the city as well. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine to help them feel cared for and stress-free while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone caring for both your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. While I’m not currently offering care in my own home, I’m happy to care for pets in their familiar environment where they feel most comfortable and secure. I’ll carefully follow all care instructions, routines, feeding schedules, and house rules to make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent. I’m respectful and clean, and I’ll always treat your home with care and professionalism.

“Kayla is detail oriented and clearly loves animals. We had a great meet and greet where she took notes, and she was very patient with my high energy dog. She filled out the rover card with very pertinent details and supplied several photos. I look forward to having her back and would happily recommend her to any other doggy family!!”

“This was my first experience using rover and Barbara made it painless! She sent pics of my dog and I was glad to have someone to let her out. I would recommend her”

“Sydney did a super job with my two babies! They warmed up to her right away, which speaks volumes about her ability to immediately connect with my cats. She was prompt and stayed for the entire drop-in visit. Those are things that are important to me and that I truly appreciate. I will use her again and I definitely recommend her!”

“Liz was exactly perfect for our 10 Day, daily drop in for our cats. She was prompt and responsive every day and provided pictures of her interaction with our pets. I enjoyed getting to know her and will absolutely use again for future vacations! Thanks Liz, you’re the best!! 🐾💕🐾”

About: I’ve had pets since I was 5. I’ve always been in charge of their wellbeing. I currently have 4 pets so handling a couple more fur babies isn’t a problem for me. Either they’re big or small. I’ll treat them as my own. I currently am not working so I will be with your fur baby 24/7. I am very strict with feeding times, potty breaks and play time. I have a fenced in back yard with lots of room to run. I also live a block away from the park so a nice walk would be able to happen as well. My family has a total of 4 cats and three dogs but not to worry all dogs are very friendly and I will be there at all times during interaction if anything where to happen. Our cats are super chill too they don’t want nothing to do with our dogs or humans.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a young child. I have taken care of my roommates, grandparents, and neighbors dogs consistently over the years. I love animals! I own a rabbit named Thor who my husband and I spend a lot of time caring for and loving in our apartment in Camp Hill, PA. I’m currently a school based occupational therapist and I have a very open schedule to walk and take care of your dog this summer and beyond. I look forward to meeting your dog or cat soon! I offer dog walks and taking care of dogs in their own home. I enjoy getting to know dogs and cats and building trust over time! I do not offer overnights in my own home at this time.

About: Ever since I was born, there has always been a cat or dog in my life. Caring for animals has always been a part of who I am. I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs for as long as I can remember, and I treat every pet like family. I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality and building a special bond with them so they feel happy, comfortable, and loved. I’m currently searching for a full-time job, so my schedule is very flexible. In the meantime, I’ll be able to give your pets the attention, love, and care they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any special instructions you provide. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, plenty of attention, and lots of love. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and give you peace of mind while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and doing well.

About: I love animals and have a degree in wildlife biology. We had a special needs German shepherd for nine years until her passing several years ago. As a mom of four children who are in school during the day, I have a consistent and flexible daytime schedule that allows me to focus on pet care. I genuinely look forward to spending that time caring for animals—whether that’s going on walks, providing companionship, or making sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their routine. Pet care fits naturally into my day, and I’m able to give dogs and cats my full attention while my kids are at school. I provide reliable drop-in visits to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, helping them stay relaxed in their familiar environment. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh food and water, clean litter boxes or tidy up any messes, and keep their space clean and comfortable. I also spend quality time with your pets based on their needs—whether that’s playing with energetic dogs, offering gentle companionship to shy cats, or giving calm affection and attention. I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets and making sure each one gets individual care and attention. I pay close attention to their behavior and routine so I can notice anything out of the ordinary and ensure they feel safe and secure while you’re away. I also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since as early as I can remember. Honestly I get along with animals better then people! We've always had a dog and more recently cats. My in-laws ask for my help when they take a trip and I am always happy to help! Currently I am caring for my kids during most of the day but I am open on evenings and weekends as needed! I'll try to fit anything in that I can! I'll always greet the animals first and make sure they are comfortable with me. Then I check for water and food. Once I make sure those are good we are off for play time or walk time!

“Karrington is amazing! He came over earlier this week for a meet and great and my pups took to him right away. What I noticed most in that meet and great was that even though I was chatting his ear off about dog things - he always diverted his attention to my dogs to play and warm up to him in the process! Both my dogs showed immediately love towards him — I especially noticed how much Merika (my male dog) took to him!! Highly recommend! He will be doing overnights with my pups in the future when I travel for work!”

About: I've taken care of all sorts of dogs ranging in size and need! I've given pills and insulin injections to some of the dogs I've watched and am very comfortable with those things. I've also watched chickens, turtles, and cats! I am a stay at home mom to 2 wonderful little boys! So I am readily available for your pet! We cannot wait to play and meet your pet! I have a fenced in yard. I have a small 8 lb dog that is unamused by other dogs and will keep his distance. Your dog can be crated if you'd prefer. I also have a toddler who knows to be gentle with our dog and will be with yours too.

“Was amazing with my pup and he was so happy!! Went above and beyond. Will book again for sure!”

About: I'm most experienced with dogs and cats. That said, I am willing to look after any pet! I've always had dogs of my own, and I previously volunteered at a shelter which gave me added experience walking dogs of many breeds, ages, and temperaments. I am also familiar with giving medications (pills/capsules, eye ointments), crating, automatic feeders, and self-cleaning litter robots. I have a flexible schedule with plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I am able to accommodate both weekday and weekend requests at nearly any time-with exception of Tuesday mornings and Friday afternoons. Your pets, your home, your rules! The clearer instructions the better, and please be open to answer questions where needed. I promise to do my best in following your guidelines to protect your space and animals!

About: Hi! I’m Christine, and I’m so happy you’re here! 😊 Animals have always had a special place in my heart, and being a pet sitter is truly something I love. I understand that pets aren’t “just pets” — they’re family — and I treat every dog or cat I care for with the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or quiet and cuddly, I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I love giving lots of affection, going on walks, sticking to routines, and making sure your pet feels relaxed while you’re away. I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry friend is happy and in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet and become your trusted go-to sitter! 🐾💕 Dependable and loving sitter experience. I currrently work from home and happy to care for pet in your home or mine. Daily photo/video updates. Cleaning food bowls and basic pet mess clean up. Plenty of attention, affection, and supervision I have a fenced in yard and two golden doodles who love to play. Skilled in maintaining a clean, safe environment. Reliable and attentive caregiver.

About: I graduated with my associate in Veterinary technology in 2022. I have taken care of and worked with all breeds of dogs and cats. I’ll give all of them the same love and care as I give my own. I am currently working full time at FedEx. Depending on your animals schedules and your requirements I will feed them and walk them bright and early make sure they got all the early morning energy out before I’d need to head out to work. Will clean up any mess if any was made in the process. After work I will go straight to check on the animal and do the same as in the morning feed, walk and play. If your pet is taking medication I will make sure to give it the right amount and at the right time. If you don’t have a fenced in yard I will also make sure I leash them can never be too safe.

“Catherine was very professional and kept in touch before the visit. She sent photos and videos of our pup and he loved her! I would highly recommend!”

About: I’ve lived with cats and dogs my whole life and have also looked after neighbors pets for years as well. I can’t wait to give all my love and attention to your best friends! I’m currently looking for a job, so I’m able to commit a lot of hours to pet sitting at this time. I can’t wait to get started! I’m currently living in an apartment, so I will not be able to board any pets in my home. However, in the future I might be able to!
