About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for different family members and friends. Your animals would get plenty of attention and love with me. I wake up at 6 am. My week days vary from having class from 9-11 MWF, Tuesday at 2, and Thursday at 11. I live off campus about 3 minutes away, so I can easily check in/take out the pets. I do not have a fenced in yard, but there is plenty of grass and a park within walking distance. I am more comfortable walking with a leash unless there is a fenced in yard. My apartment has 1 roommate and plenty of space for dogs/cats to roam or lay down.

About: I have several years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals. I am currently pursuing my education to become a veterinary technician, with the long-term goal of becoming a veterinarian. Through my experience, I have developed strong knowledge and skills in pet training, dog walking, proper nutrition and feeding, and medication administration. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work a part-time job, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule. I keep my Rover calendar up to date to reflect my availability, though occasional changes may come up. I always encourage clients to reach out, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your needs and ensure the best care for your fur baby! I do not offer in-home boarding, but I am happy to provide care in your home. I strive to maintain your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. When possible, I am available for extended stays, which can provide added consistency for your pet’s care and fit well with my schedule. I also recommend that clients leave detailed care instructions, as every pet has unique needs, routines, and preferences.

Our pups love Juliana and Caleb. It is so nice knowing we can go out of town and they are so well taken care of. Yesterday, we came home from warm weather in South Carolina to snow in PA, and they were kind enough to shovel our sidewalks and driveway. That was an amazing surprise. They are the best!

John was very kind and considerate with our dogs and took every instruction with care! Dogs seemed at ease immediately around him during the meet, which I always take to be a good sign. We will definitely book again for future trips!

About: We currently have 2 Dogs, 1 cat, and 2 kids. I have had animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with 3 poms and multiple cats. I have handled ALL different types of dogs through family and friends. Would also be willing to take care of other pets if needed. We currently foster cats and walk dogs when able through spca. I have delt with young pups to seniors with mediation. I love all animals and take care of them like my own. I can be flexable. I am a stay at home dad with my daughter and son who is currently in cyber school. Going on walks around the area or to the park to play are some easy ideas. Love walking or jogging a pet if they are up for it. I can drop in, take them for a walk, play with them at the park, play in home or back yard or whatever you/they need.

Jessica had pup-sitted for my very anxious dog and she has done great with him! His anxiety is way down and he’s relaxed enough to even play around! I’m grateful we found her and that my pup loves her.

About: What sets me apart is my experience with both puppies and senior dogs. I’m skilled in basic training, ensuring pups learn good habits, and I offer extra care for seniors, adapting walks and attention to their needs. Pet care is a top priority in my daily routine. I plan walks, playtime, and feeding around my schedule, ensuring each pet gets the attention and exercise they need. It’s not just a job; it’s a passion. When caring for pets in their home, I stick to their familiar routines, including feeding, playtime, and walks. I make sure they feel safe and comfortable, keeping their environment consistent. If pets stay in my home, I offer a cozy, supervised space where they can relax, with plenty of outdoor time and lots of affection. I treat every pet like they’re part of my family.

If I could give more stars I would! Absolutely the best sitter EVER! She kept us updated on a daily basis with messages and photos of our fur babies throughout our entire vacation. Seeing how happy they were made our vacation stress free and kept our minds at ease knowing that Lauren was taking such great care of our pups. They got lots of exercise, playtime, love and cuddle time. We could not have asked for more. She is AMAZING! We hope to be able to book Lauren for all of our vacations!

Rita came to our rescue during a last minute request, actually a day of request, after our special needs daughter was admitted to the ICU. When everything in our world was turned upside down, Rita was able to bring some peace of mind knowing our fur babies were well loved and taken care of. We couldn’t have asked for a better house sitter and we were so blessed to have had Rita there during our time of need. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! 💕

About: Home Environment I live in a spacious house featuring a securely fenced back yard, providing a safe and comfortable environment for pets to play and relax. My Chihuahua, who is notably sociable and friendly, enjoys interacting with other dogs, cats, and people alike. Resident Pets In addition to my Chihuahua, I share my home with two cats that I rescued from the local animal shelter. Both cats are well-adjusted and accustomed to living with dogs. Typically, after a brief introduction consisting of a few sniffs and perhaps a hiss, they are able to coexist peacefully with other cats. Experience and Availability Since retiring from the Army, I am available around the clock to care for your beloved pet. With more than 26 years of experience in owning and caring for both dogs and cats, I am well-versed in understanding and meeting their unique needs. Commitment to Care I promise to care for your pet as if it were my own, ensuring its safety, comfort, and happiness. Every animal entrusted to me is treated as an extended and respected member of my household. I am a retired Army veteran and parent of a Chihuahua and 2 cats. I am available around the clock to take care of your fur baby as a respected member of my household. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly Chihuahua to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. My cats ignore dogs that don't want to play. If your dog dislikes cats, I am able to separate their living areas while your dog is on-site.

About: I do not simply care for the pets needs, I care for your needs too. Puppy has an accident? Why don’t I mop the floors of the whole house in addition to the affected area. I will train your pups to be good “pup-american citizens.” I am currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your animals! I dedicate my time to making your pets stay worthwhile and productive. I care for my own pets by regularly walking, grooming, and playing with them! I hope to spread my love of animals with your furry friends.

Valerie was so great with Bandit. She sent us photos and updates. She absolutely knew his needs and took very good care of him. She was also very accommodating since she didn’t have much notice. I would absolutely have her sit with him again. Bandit actually cried for her when she left. Great girl and great personality. Thank you so much Valerie for taking good care of our fur baby.
