“I have been sending my pup to daycare with Rillan for the past two weeks and I have to say… I count myself super lucky to have met Rillan. She has gone above and beyond in taking care of my dog and also in being thoughtful and considerate to me as a pawrent as well. For example, there was a flash flood warning during last week and due to concerns for my safety in driving over, she most generously offered to let my pup spend the night. That really touched me. And I expect, the more I can count on her, the more sweet anecdotes I will have to share about how awesome and kind Rillan is. Thank you sincerely again Rillan. You are sincerely so so awesome! And love all your dog apparel and wolf shirts! Your photo check ins through the day really brighten my day and make me smile and be worry-free about my pup as I go through my day.”


“Katie and her family took Rainy in as she was there own. They are very friendly and thoughtful and kept me updated throughout the day and what Rainy was doing and sent me photos. I felt very comfortable leaving Rainy with Katie.”


“Seymour was immediately comfortable with them, and he runs right up to their door when I drop him off! It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he's going to have a good day and be well taken care of.”


“Ryan is great. He is responsive and takes good care of Leo. Ryan's puppy, Charlie, and Leo have become friends. Leo is looking forward to future visits with Ryan and Charlie.”


“If you’re looking for the absolute best care for your dog, look no further than the amazing Tess & Kurt! From the moment we met them, it was clear how much they genuinely love dogs. They took the time to get to know my pup’s personality and quirks, and introduced her to their dog in a very patient and understanding way. Their communication was fantastic—they provided hourly updates (which they didn’t have to do) and the cutest photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog was so happy and relaxed when I returned, I could tell she’d been showered with attention. What really sets them apart is their kindness and patience. I can’t recommend them highly enough—trustworthy, caring, and truly the nicest dog sitters ever. Chili can’t wait for his next stay! Thank you both for everything! 🐾”


“Dean and Gwen were wonderful! They gave Annie all the attention she could have wanted. She was very comfortable and definitely enjoyed her time with them. I really appreciated the pictures and video they shared. Any dog that gets to spend time with them is a lucky pup!”


About: I've walked, fed, and dog sat dogs for neighbors and recently siblings. I also currently have a 5 month old puppy who I've taken care of and trained myself since she was 8 weeks old. I'm currently a full time student at Penn State but my classes tend to be spread out so lots of time to give dogs love. I'm available to board dogs Friday-Sunday and dog sit weekdays (excluding tuesdays) anytime after 4. I have a very playful 5 month old puppy who loves to play with new friends. She gets daily walks and gets taken out every 2-4 hours to get energy out and to go potty so you're fur baby will be in great hands. My fur baby is crate trained at night and transitioning to graduating the crate so either option is okay for boarding here.

“Maya, was wonderful and accommodating. She took care of my pet Nova and I appreciate the love and care she provided . She will be a wonderful loving friend to your pet . Nova was happy to go again on the second day of his daycare. I would leave Nova again with her in the future. Thank you Maya”


About: Always joking that dogs are superior but in truthfulness love all animals. Experienced with dogs but open to providing care for other pets. Will strictly adhere to owner requests, so long as they are humane. (Furniture ok vs not allowed, food/walking schedule, treats, etc.). There will be no shortage of affection and attention, assuming the pet is receptive. Open to assisting with reactive or challenging pets. Attempting to build a trusting bond is an inherent desire. Work from home so (brief) walks, potty breaks, playtime, etc can be provided through entirety of day. Longer walks before 8am or after 5pm. Available 24/7 on weekends and holidays. Live alone so no concerns about other pets or children. Have decent sized yard but do require a leash since there is no fence. Safe, quiet, and friendly neighborhood.

About: Hi there! I was raised on a crop farm and grew up surrounded by animals of all kinds. My extended family owns cattle, dogs, cats, and more—so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every animal like family. Whether it’s a walk, cuddle, or just company, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe and loved I’m pretty flexible during the week and can often do last-minute bookings. I occasionally travel for work on weekends, but I’ll always keep my calendar updated so you know when I’m available! I live on a farm, so there’s plenty of space for animals to roam, play, and go to the bathroom comfortably. I make sure pets get lots of attention, exercise, and affection while keeping their routines as close to home as possible. Whether it’s feeding on time, giving them space to explore safely, or just offering calm companionship, I care for each animal with patience and love. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family!

About: I’ve always loved being around animals, and over the years I’ve had the chance to care for all kinds of cats and dogs. Whether it’s feeding, grooming, giving medication, or just spending time with them, I genuinely enjoy it. One of the most memorable experiences was taking care of a sweet three-legged dog who taught me a lot about patience and understanding unique needs. Animals bring so much happiness into my life, and I really value the connection that comes from caring for them. I’m dependable, hands-on, and always excited for quality time with furry friends. Taking care of my pets is part of my everyday life. I walk my dog and cats, play with them, and make sure they get the attention they need. It’s fun for all of us and keeps them happy and healthy. Your pet’s comfort always comes first with me. I have experience with large breeds like Great Danes and St. Bernards, so I understand how to handle their size and personalities. Once they feel comfortable, I focus on building trust and giving them plenty of love and attention.

About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes! I grew up always having a dog around so I have years of experience. I am very responsible and reliable when it comes to any job or task. I currently just moved into the State College area. I’m currently on a job search. Until I find the right job for me, my availability is very open. I currently don’t have any pets in my home. I prefer not to stay at my clients homes to watch their dog. I would prefer drop-ins or bring them to my home. Outside of my home we have a dog park and walking trails!

About: I have cared for many different types of animals since I was a child. Dogs, cats, bunnies, rats and hamsters. Fostered and lived with many dogs. I currently have dogs and cats. They are the joy of my life especially since the kids (and grand dogs) have grown and moved. Couldn’t imagine life without them. I have two dogs and 2 cats to keep the fur guests company. Lots of play time in the fenced back yard. And snuggles on the couch.

About: Hi! My name is Cassie I am 25 years young. I have a genuine love for dogs! I have never grew up in a home without one! I am down to do just about anything for an animal whether that is feeding, walking, playing, giving medicine, bathing, you name it and I am there. My love for dogs is what drove me to be on this site. I could not think of a better job to have. I can not wait to see your furry friend! Thank you for considering me for the job! I have the most time mornings and evenings to do extracurricular activities with the fur babies. My husband also helps out and will go on walks mid day when he gets off of work. I live in a house with a backyard for your fur baby to walk, run, potty and play. Plenty of space for your pet to roam!
