Dog Walkers in Manada Gap, PA

About: I have taken care of pets for my whole life! I grew up on a farm with at least three dogs and five indoor cats at a time! I have worked at Dr. Mimnagh’s office as a veterinary assistant since 2020. With years of experience, I am more than qualified to care for, feed, and administer all medications to cats and dogs. I am comfortable with handling all sizes and personalities of cats and dogs. I have a dog and two cats of my own that I care for on the daily! I love to have fun with the animals and play with them but safety for all involved is the main priority. I am currently a student at the University of South Carolina and am looking to make some extra money over the summer! I personally have five cats and three dogs which I care for daily. I also work at a local vet clinic at least four days a week as a veterinary assistant. I do my best to volunteer at the Harrisburg humane society weekly for shelter skip day! My personal pets are fed by me, cleaned up after, walked and given attention daily! Unfortunately due to my pets, I will not be taking clients pets to my house. However, I would be giving the clients pets a great deal of attention whether that include playing with them, walking and feeding them etc.

“Siyani is absolutely AMAZING! My rescued pup is a reactive dog, and it’s usually very difficult for him to warm up to new people,!especially when it comes to walks or being cared for by someone new. But with Siyani, he felt safe right away!! She has such a calm, kind energy that made Toby comfortable and confident, which is something I honestly didn’t think I would find outside of our family. Finding someone who can handle a rescue pup with patience and love is rare, and Siyani has completely earned my trust. This experience gave me the peace of mind I needed, and now I know I’ve found my go-to sitter for Toby, not only for dog walks but also for when I travel. I couldn’t recommend her enough!!”

About: Ever since I was a kid, I've been an animal lover. I've taken care of animals (both for myself and for others) for over 15 years. I've dog-sat, cat-sat, and chicken-sat for many friends and family members in that time. Since many of the pets I grew up with have begun to leave my life due to old age, I've found myself wanting to spend time with critters more. I figured why not look here to see what people may need help ensuring their pets get the proper care and attention they deserve. I am naturally a cat person, but have also learned how to work with, train, and play with dogs as a result of being around them so often. I try to balance being fun + compassionate along with being a calm but stern presence when necessary. And I'm happy to offer any and all pets a little extra playtime or attention if they need it as well (: I work from home, and have a relatively flexible schedule at least half of the week most of the time. I have time to shift my schedule around to accommodate pet care throughout the week. My only limit is often how many days out of the week I can work, but not what specific days I can watch someone's pets. My weekends can happen whenever during the week! It's important to me to start slow and develop a connection with someone's pet before acting too comfortable around them. Having ample play time, walk time, relaxation time, and a healthy amount of treats help get that process in motion. Ideally I'd love to find people I could work with regularly, strictly because I value developing a solid relationship with people's pets more than just "showing up and doing my job" - though I am very capable of doing that as well!

About: I have had dogs ever since I was a little girl. Growing up, we had Pitbulls and Dobermans in the house. I was responsible for taking care of the family pets, as my parents wanted all of us to be involved. My neighbors had dogs that I would take while they were away. This would consist of walking, feeding, and cleaning up after their dog. I used to walk dogs in my old neighborhood, and I have taken care of my friends' pets on several occasions when they went away. My husband and I adopted two little kitties and it was the best thing we have ever done! They bring so much joy to our life and we love them dearly I am a third grade teacher, so I am looking for post-work pet care or weekends when I am free. My evenings would open around 4:00, where my weekends are usually open all the time! I can easily crate a dog as needed, clean out a litter box for cats, provide food for either type of pet. Or simply, give company to a pet that has been home by themselves for awhile!

“Cassidy is an AMAZING walker for my Millie girl! She gives her all the love and I trust she’s in capable hands every day for her midday walk. Millie can be a bit of a puller/barker on walks and Cassidy handles her perfectly. She is a great communicator with anything going on (even random repair people showing up at my house). I so much appreciate the love she shows my baby.”

About: I am a loving and caring dog Mommy that loves to walk. My Morkie Molly and I would love to find some friends to walk with us. I work from home primarily and I’m only looking to do drop ins or walks. The primary times that I would be available would be weekend mornings weekend evenings weekday evenings, anytime during the day, Mondays and Fridays My primary interest will be dropping in and walking. I’ll be sure that your pet is in their harness securely. I have a hip leash that will have waste bags and a pet water bottle if they get thirsty, The length of the walk will be depending upon the needs of the dog. I can feed them if they need to be fed spend up to one hour each visit if needed..we can play, give hugs and kisses and make sure they are tired out and happy before leaving.

“Victoria was great with our dogs while we were on a trip. She was very responsive and followed up when I messed up the booking. Great dog walker!”

About: I've had pets my whole life. Growing up, my family had several dogs and cats amongst other animals. I am a cat mom of 3 (had 4 but lost my guy 3 years ago). And will one day be a doggo mom!! I love animals and believe when you take on the responsibility of owning a pet, that's it for their life. My guys live a fun, spoiled, laidback life and I would do anything for my guys. I unfortunately due to my oldest having diabetes and CHF, am familiar with administrating medication as I had to give insulin and he was on several meds (pills and compounded). I love all animals and will love them like my own. I will send photos/videos of your pet (anytime). Your pet will get my 1000% undivided attention!! I am super excited to watch/take care of your pet!! My schedule is very open currently which means more time for me to love on your pet(s)!! As my schedule changes, I'll do my best to be as accommodating as possible!! My pets are my world and come first. I make sure my pets are taken care of (fed, water, litter box cleaned etc) and put their needs over mine. Put in perspective, I tried dozens of options of foods and such when my oldest was diagnosed with diabetes and gave my all to find answers before he passed. My pets are my children LOL and your pets will get the exact kind of care and love that I provide my guys.

About: I’m a dog mom that works from home 95% of the time. With 4 dogs and almost an acre for a fenced in backyard, there is a lot of time for fun activities, cuddles, and the zoomies both in and outside of the house. I have experience with both puppies and elderly dogs, and have enough space throughout the house that either can be made comfortable in a space if needed. My daily AND weekly routine are very flexible as I can adjust my own schedule when needed. Even on work hours, I have a lot of free time on my hands that allow for short walks or some fun activities in the yard. My dogs always have time made for them, so I would love to include your pups in our free time. My backyard is fenced in and is a very large plot to allow for a quick stretch of the legs and multiple potty breaks. Smaller dogs will be taken on a leash as the fence is a rail type fence, but larger dogs will be allowed to roam freely around the yard. If your pups are not dog friendly it is a MUST know so that space can be separated from my own, but still allow them room to run and grow comfortable in a new space. Dogs are let out every 1-3 hours, depending on what is needed and can be adjusted as needed.

“Annie communicates clearly and is very professional. Happy to work with her and will book again :)”

About: I was working in a Dog daycare for 5 years before I started my own business. In that time I also received my dog training certificate. I have worked with puppies all the way up to senior dogs in my time working with animals. Pet care is my full time job. All I need are the days you're looking for and I can add you onto my schedule. I also offer limited services on the weekends I travel to my clients for the services requested. Depending on the set up of the clients house determines how I go about looking after the animal. I always request that vet information be readily available just incase anything happens and I generally like to meet the animal first to make sure they are comfortable with me before I commit to working with them.

About: Pet sitting has been a hobby of mine since I was 16 years old. In college I picked it back up as a part time job for extra income; and to fulfill my happiness, one animal at a time. I’m trustworthy and take care of your animals like I take care of mine. My animals are my kids, but I also have two human kids!! I was raised with animals my entire life, therefore i’d love to give you peace and comfort while you’re in need of a sitter for your babies !! I work full time as a RN but I work weekends, therefore I have my entire week empty. I would love to fill my schedule with dog snuggles!! My husband, and two sons live on an acre of land that back up to a farmette with animals!! We also have chickens, and two dogs of our own. We have a boston terrier and a french bulldog that get along well with other animals!!

About: Grew up with dogs in the family. A collie and a husky. Currently have a beagle that is 6 years old. Had her since she was 9 weeks old. We walk every day. Care is a high consideration on very cold days as well as hot and humid summer afternoons. I don't work during the summer months. Have time to care for a pet for someone or a family who needs help so they can plan a vacation or time away. Or for those who have a demanding time schedule. I only have one pet, dog, in the house. A fenced in yard and a wireframe crate that is 2 feet x 3 feet and about 2 - 2.5 feet high.

About: Some people call me the dog whisperer, but I just speak a dogs language. I love dogs, even more than most humans. I’m not afraid to administer medications or take pups to the vet or groomer. I’m a stay at home mom, so I’m pretty much available all day long. I own two large dogs and one small dog. And they all live in harmony with my children. Both my sons love animals almost as much as I do! If we had the land, I’d open a rescue and adoption center. Dogs of all sizes enjoy stopping here on their walks because they know I always have treats waiting. We know most of our furry neighbors better than the humans! We must love dogs or are crazy! I’m currently at home, but we do have children, and live an active and busy lifestyle do to their sports. I try to be as flexible as possible. I have a huge fenced in yard and my dogs love having friends over! We do require crates for sleeping or anytime we are not home, so if your dog is not crate trained, this probably isn’t the home for you.

“2nd time I used Jaden, puntual, polite and most importantly great with my Rico. I will definitely call him again to sit for us!”

About: I’ve always had a love for animals. I’m a huge pet person. I find joy in meeting new animals and being able to spend my free time taking care of them. I love being able to help others so I’m always open to find any time I may have to help you with your pets when needed. FYI- I live 5 mins away from Hersheypark… bring your dog for to me for doggy daycare if you plan on taking a weekend/daytrip to Hershey or Hersheypark! I’m currently working full time. I pet sit and dog groom on the side of my full time job. Weekends is when I have the most time to spend with the dogs. During the week I still give them plenty of loving but it’s before work and after work due to my schedule. I will always make sure they are on a leash when outside if there is no fence. I can will take care of your dog in your house or mine whichever is prefered.

About: Hello! I love being outside and exploring nature, and what better way to do it than to have an adorable animal by your side! I’m looking for a side hustle and my love for pets would make this a great one. I can’t wait to meet your best friend! I’m currently working part-time at a restaurant, so my hours as a pet sitter would be 5am-2pm Monday through Thursday only. If you’d like me to spend a weekend with your pup or kitty, you’d have to give me at least a week notice. I care for my pets by ensuring they are always safe. I have a fenced in yard and e-collars to protect them from running away. If you would need me to supply you toys, leashes, or a crate, I would be able to.

“Breawna communicated very well and handled our husky Sophie very well. She loves to walk and we will use her again.”

“So thankful for Dani! We had something come up last minute and she quickly replied that she was available to walk our dog. She was great at communicating about their trip. Will definitely confide in her in the future to take care of our pup!”
