Julie was wonderful! She went above and beyond! My kitties were well taken care of especially since I need someone over twice a day to feed them. Highly recommend and will definitely use Julie in the future!

About: I had a pet cat from the day I was born, but got my first kittens when I was 5 years old. When I was 9, we recused a dog we named Honey and I instantly fell in love with dogs. Currently, I have 2 dogs, have fostered 22 dogs, and was the Foster Coordinator for a rescue in Texas before moving to PA. Taking care of my dogs is my top priority. They get a walk in the morning before breakfast. After breakfast, my beagle cuddles up to me while I throw the ball for my golden retriever. I spend the day giving them enrichment mentally and physically. I care for other pets the way I would care for my own. Each animal I am entrusted with gets top tier love, care, and attention. I am not distracted when caring for the pets I am entrusted with. I follow all instructions I am given and always look over the animals to ensure they are in good health and physical state while in my care.

Melissa was fantastic! Very friendly and easy to communicate with. Loved her daily updates of our cat's well-being. I could see from the photos that our cat really enjoyed her new "Auntie" Melissa. Looking forward to working with her again. Thank you Melissa!

Rachel did an amazing job with our dog and cat. Her experience and knowledge came into play when our dog got a little sick, and she was on top of everything! Rachel paid extra attention and time with our pup, treated her like a princess, and helped us not feel stressed about it. We knew our pets were in such good hands. She’s very thorough with notes and pics with every visit.

Winter thoroughly enjoyed her time with Emily. She probably jumped up and gave her 1 million hugs.😳 I was comforted in knowing that she was in good hands while I was far away. Emily was prompt followed my many instructions and we will be glad to have her back.

About: I’ve had a family dog since I was 4 and have loved each greatly. I’m great with all, no matter how big or small. I will make sure they’re treated like the family they are. I have experience giving medications if needed as well as keeping to routines. I’m currently self employed, so there’s plenty of time and energy to spare on doggos and kitties! I currently work from home and can take my work on the go if need be. I’m in an area that’s very walkable and I walk daily. I don’t have pets of my own so any time I get with them, whether friend’s or family’s, is a delight. I follow care specifications of clients to a T. I try to make sure the animals are taken care of as if their own parents were still there. Making sure they’re walked, fed, played with, given potty opportunities, or simply left alone if that’s what they prefer. I care for every pet as if it were my own.

About: I am easy for dogs to get accusomed to, even dogs with difficulty towards others. I have spent a various amounts of time walking/sitting for friends over the years and also maintaining other animals (cats, reptiles, ferrets). I enjoy engaging with dogs and other animals to spend my time, and working with them to better their skills. I am generally free during the days and in the mornings. Evenings most nights as well. I can pop in and out to assist as needed for any type of to level of care. My schedule is all over but that's what helps me maintain an open yet closed schedule! I will maintain making sure your animals water is full, food is served per your food schedule. I don't mind giving medications. I will happily brush it do other general maintenance as needed!

About: I am a retired vet tech who has since changed career paths but still aspires to help you and your furry friends. I began pet sitting as a teenager, and have years of experience along with being a pet owner myself! I am available most week days after 4 pm and week ends too. I work with kids full time, however I have the time to help you and your furry friends as long as we can schedule in advance typically. I am detail oriented and safety is the most important aspect of my business. Being a vet tech for 7 years, I know how to keep your furry friends safe and comfortable. I have training in animal behavior also and in working with animals that tend to be more anxious and or have particular needs.

There are simply not enough words to describe what a fabulous experience we had with Zania. From the moment we first met her, both of my dogs adored her. Zania always arrived on time to take care of our girls, and she communicated with us regarding each visit. We LOVED her photos. We will definitely be booking with Zania again.
