“Lena was happy to see us and not desperate and angry. A tribute to Erin giving her not just the care she needs, but the companionship too while we're gone. We're so grateful for that. Erin goes above and beyond, making sure to take care of the trash and recycling, and leaving the house clean. We're so grateful for her care.”

About: I have had animals my entire life. What truly sets me apart is my attention to detail, consistency, and compassion. I’m not just reliable—I’m someone your pet will be excited to see every time. Their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I know how much your pet means to you, and I care for them with the same love and respect I give my own. Caring for animals is a natural part of my day—it’s something I look forward to, not just a task to check off. I structure my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for, whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings and playtime. I make sure each pet gets the time, attention, and love they deserve. Because I genuinely enjoy being around animals, I prioritize their well-being in my daily routine. I stay organized, communicate with pet owners consistently, and always leave time for extra cuddles, games, or calming routines depending on the pet’s personality. Whether I’m walking dogs, visiting cats, or caring for multiple pets, I build my day around making them feel happy, safe, and loved. When caring for your pet in your home, my goal is to keep them as comfortable and stress-free as possible by maintaining their normal routine in a familiar space. I follow your instructions carefully—from feeding schedules and walking routes to any special needs or quirks your pet may have. I take time to build trust with each pet, offering gentle interaction, play, cuddles, or quiet companionship based on their personality. I ensure fresh water, clean food areas, and tidy litter boxes or outdoor spaces. I’m respectful of your home and always leave it just as I found it—or better. I also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in loving, responsible hands.
About: I have grown up with a dog and a cat my entire life, and have helped through the training puppy-stages into their senior years. My family recently got a puppy (corgi - named Bentley!) and I have enjoyed helping to train him and acclimate during all the stages of puppyhood. I am home for the summer as a student at Lehigh University, and I would love to help take good care of your pet(s)! I am a waitress so my schedule is subject to change but I have plenty of spare time to offer any help needed. Your pet’s safety and well being is my top priority. I am happy to follow any instructions for how you best want your pet to be taken care of.
“Caring and attentive sitter!”
About: When i lived in Arizona i had taken care of many of my family friends dogs for many months at a time, i take care of my own dog here at home and i used to babysit a family who had a dog aswell. I am not working yet so my schedule is very flexible and i can pretty much work any day of the week other than some weekends. If the client wants their pet at my home, i have a dog named pepe who is very friendly with other dogs and has never had an issue. He is a little sweet white dog who is now 11 years old.

Jeanmarie P.
“I have had the pleasure of knowing Jeanmarie for over 20 years, and I can confidently say she is the most trustworthy, caring and attentive person I know- especially when it comes to caring for animals. Whenever I travel to Florida, I have complete peace of mind knowing that my cat is in the best hands. She not only makes sure all the basics are covered, feeding, fresh water and litter cleaned. She also takes the time of giving my cat affection and playtime, so this level of dedication is rare to find. I highly recommend Jeanmarie for your furry friends.”

She is an amazing pet parent to her corgi Bentley as she is reliable and caring. Anyone would be lucky to have her care for their pets!”
