“Friendly, professional, and organized. Really nice guy, really nice place for dog-sitting. Kiwi came back from the weekend healthy and upbeat and he was super communicative by text.”
“Scooby loves staying with Victoria and her family - when I dropped him off he was so excited and pulling on his leash, couldn’t wait to get to the front door to see his friends! She takes great care of him and I always feel at ease while he’s there.”
“Excellent experience. Sara seemed professional, friendly, and very on top of things. She stayed in close touch about our little guy, and Kiwi seemed in good spirits both during his visit and after. I'd also specifically flag her location as a bonus—the house has a good yard and it's on a small, low-traffic side street, which always makes me feel better.”
“Was very communicative and great with my dog. Took blue on multiple runs and hour long walks, which really helps her when she’s feeling anxious away from home. Would definitely recommend.”
“Anastasia really put our minds at ease when we dropped off our 1 1/2-year-old dog, who is a quarantine (COVID) pup. Pepper hasn't been around many dogs or humans since we got her right before the pandemic began. Every concern we had about socialization, etc., Anastasia reassured us. Pepper had a great overnight with her and we are looking forward to her next stay as we know she is in excellent hands with Anastasia watching over her.”
About: I have lot's of experience in pet care. I walked dogs, pet and house sat for many years in my 20s and after moving to Lancaster a few years ago began pet-sitting again here. My wife and I work from home, which allows us to spend all day with our beloved Havenese Geordi. We all enjoy having other dogs come to play and stay! My wife and I both work from home. My office has a back door out to our fenced in yard so I am able to let the dogs out pretty much anytime they like. I can't even count how many times a day my dog goes out back. I also like to take the dogs on a stroll around the block before and after work. As mentioned I have a fenced in yard and a Havanese who loves to have dog guests to play with and stay over. We give all the dogs lots attention and always make sure their needs are met.
“We had such a great experience with Briana! She took wonderful care of Coco and kept us updated with plenty of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and it was clear Coco was happy and well cared for. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“My dog Simba spent his Thanksgiving with Gabriel. He is a male Golden Retriever, two and half years old. He needs a lot of exercise. He never lived anywhere before. I was very worried before leaving Simba with Gabriel. But he had a wonderful experience. He played a lot with other dogs, came home calm and relaxed. Gabriel has a good understanding of dogs and very confident. I am definitely coming back again.”
“Kourtney is a kind and a knowledgeable dog sitter. When I overseas for almost a month, my high energy dog was boarded in her place. She kept me posted and sent pictures. I could tell how much my dog got her attentions and love. She made my absence very easy and pleasant to my very sensitive rescued dog. I highly recommend Kourtney to you when you need help. Thank you very much, Kourtney and your husband!”
“Sarah was absolutely fantastic with our older aged GSD. Her retriever got along great with our dog and we were very pleased with the level of care provided for our pup when it came to food accommodations (our pup gets anxious when we leave and struggles to eat sometimes). Needless to say, Sarah went above and beyond and we couldn’t be more appreciative of the extraordinary care for our dog as well as all of the communication and photos she provided during the stay. Lastly, Sarah was quite flexible and accommodating with meet and greets, drop off times and pickup times. 10/10 and highly recommend! Thank you Sarah!”
“Angelina was fantastic! She took great care of Sammy, and sent us lots of photos while we were away. Excellent communication and very easy to work with. I would absolutely ask Angelina to watch Sammy again!! Thank you!”
“We had our first playdate with Tracee this week and it went very well! Tracee has a warm and welcoming home and made our dog very comfortable and happy during his stay. I also got multiple pictures of him playing and relaxing, which I appreciated. We have an overnight stay booked with Tracee and are looking forward to it! Thank you!!”
“We were so happy with Melissa and Axel. They took great care of our dog, sent us pictures and updates and their kids gave our dog all the love. We will definitely be rebooking.”
“Meli is a fantastic sitter! She took awesome care of my pup, Chunk. I really enjoyed the pictures that she sent me throughout the day. It was a comfort knowing that he was in good hands. You can tell that she is very passionate about animals!”
“Bridget was fabulous. Blue had some digestive issues. We communicated with Bridget ahead of time and she was extremely supportive and helpful. She administered new food and medicine while Blue was there. She is an absolute pro and awesome to work with!”
“Hi. Hello. It’s me. Kona. Baby dog. CEO of this house while my humans are gone. I would like to speak about Loren. Because WOW. First of all: Loren showed up for me. Suspicious. Heroes do that. Loren knew my name immediately. I never told them. (Okay maybe my humans did, but still. Magic.) She understood my language. I signaled: *snout budging* She asked: “You need to go outside.” Correct. Genius. Scholar. She fed me EXACTLY when I was starving to death (which happens every 9 hours). She gave me food AND didn’t steal it AND didn’t rush me even when I dropped it on the floor on purpose to test her loyalty. Passed. She took me on a walk. Not a “quick” walk. A **sniff-every-tree-branch-like-it’s-a-mystery-novel** walk. She waited while I investigated the same bush for 4 straight minutes because something smelled like *crime*. She played with me. Not “throw ball once” play. Real play. The kind where I bring the toy back and she act surprised EVERY TIME. Excellent acting. Five stars. When I got tired, she noticed. I didn’t even have to dramatically collapse. She said, “Aww, nap time.” YES. FINALLY. SOMEONE WHO GETS ME. She respected my boundaries. Except when I needed exactly 17 belly rubs and then ONE MORE or I would simply pass away. She stayed. She protected the house with me. We heard a noise once. Probably the wind. But still. We were brave together. In conclusion: The Dog Sitter is ✨ The Best Human ✨ ✨ A Treat Giver ✨ ✨ A Walk Bringer ✨ ✨ My New Best Friend ✨ I will miss her. Unless she comes back. Which she should. Immediately. 10/10 Would allow to dog sit me again and share my toys (which is a BIG deal). End of report. BORK. - Kona 🐾”
“Priti is amazing! From the moment you meet her and her husband you know you’ve found a safe, happy place for your family member. Immediately they are both loving and focused on making friends with your dog. They have a fenced in back yard on a quiet street which is also very attractive feature. When we arrived to pick up our dog, we could sense she was calm, comfortable, and happy. This is the classic parenting – babysitter dilemma: when you find a good one, you don’t want to tell folks. In Priti, we found a great one and she deserves a superlative review.”
“Kira was excellent with communication and sent many updates with how Jasper was settling into his first stay. She was extra accommodating with a last minute request.”

I can't recommend Craig and Brianna highly enough. They looked after our dog, Oreo, for a week and provided exceptional care. Their frequent updates and photos showed just how comfortable and loved he was. It’s such a relief to find sitters who treat your pet as their own!
Vicki took such great care of our sweet boy, Archie, while we were away. She was a great communicator, quick and responsive, and kept us updated with lots of photos, which gave us real peace of mind. She was also very flexible with timing, which made everything so easy. Archie got tons of playtime, had a backyard to run around in, and we loved that she let him sleep in bed so he felt right at home. Her kids played with him too, which he absolutely loved. He came back happy and relaxed, which says everything. We are already planning to rebook with Vicki whenever we travel again and would absolutely recommend her.
