“Ali was great! She was super nice and friendly and very easy to communicate with. She is also very accommodating when we had to extend our pets stay for an extra night. She would definitely be our first choice next time we need a sitter for our pets again.”

“Christina and her family treated my dog like their own this weekend and made us so comfortable in leaving him!! We were kept updated with texts and pictures the entire time we were gone and we know that Bruno received so much love. From reading books, to running in the yard for hours chasing sticks and fireflies, Bruno was kept busy, and shown lots of love! He could barely keep his eyes open after we picked him up from being so tired out! We will definitely be rebooking and using Christina for any of our future dog watching needs! Thank you again ?”

About: I have been a pet owner for over 40 years. I work from home, so I am always available for your precious pets! I also have a half an acre, fully gated yard-for plenty of space to roam! I am great with dogs, and also the Purrfect Cat Sitter! I work from home, so that allows me the flexibility to have extra daytime snuggles. I have always been great with animals, so a Sitter spot on Rover is totally a perfect fit for me! My home is gated around the half acre perimeter, and very pet friendly. If away with a client in their home- I make sure the animals have ample space to get to know me on their terms, as often they might be sad to be in the care of someone other than their #1's. I believe their comfort and safety is most important, so I strive to be their favorite substitute!

“First of all, I was impressed with Lauren’s perfect dog friendly house where any pet would be so comfortable and loved. But more important, our dog Bentley, who has become more anxious as he ages, spent the first 12 hours at Lauren’s highly restless and even peeing inappropriately despite all of Lauren’s efforts. Our family was in Colorado and Lauren was awesome working with us long distance , but especially with Bentley to help him get his calm back and once over his initial jitters, he was a good guest in her house. I can’t thank Lauren enough for her willingness to work through all this with us and for being so chill with it all. It was a lot and she was wonderful! She should always be a first choice if you’re looking for someone kind and patient to watch your pet.”

About: I groom dogs as well as have an existing client base with pet sitting/dog walking. I also used to be a rabbit breeder and have general experience with many animals. I originally worked in a dog daycare/hotel and shifted to grooming after moving to PA My work/school schedule isn't consistent. But generally I'm awake between the hours of 5am-11pm with wake up times and sleep times varying around those marks. Whatever schedule your pup needs I'm able to accommodate. I have an extremely friendly and passive Corgi named Fiona and a friendly and playful Pomeranian named Victoria. I have have 2 cats but they are able to be separated if it's an issue for your friend.

“Ryan did an outstanding job with my dogs! It’s obvious he has experience and takes this job seriously with care, love, and attention. Him and his partners were sure to send picture updates throughout the stay making my first group boarding experience for my fur children as worry-free as possible. I also loved that my dogs had a huge area to play and socialize while also maintaining a routine. I highly recommend using Ryan or any of his partners.”

Savannah took such amazing care of my dog. He bounced around a few shelters before I adopted him and can be very nervous around new people, but he quickly warmed up to Savannah. I would definitely recommend her to care for your pups!
