Dog Sitting Mantoloking

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and the experience I've gained caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I volunteered with ACCT Philly Animal Shelter, where I helped care for both dogs and cats with a wide range of temperaments and needs. That experience taught me how to be patient, attentive, and adaptable, whether working with energetic puppies, shy rescue dogs, or senior pets that need a little extra care and compassion. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my family always had multiple pets, and I was known as the one who spent the most time caring for them. Whether it was feeding, walking, playing, or simply making sure they felt safe and loved, I naturally took on that role because I truly enjoy being around animals. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience because they're a puppy or senior, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family. Pet care isn't something I fit into my routine—it's a part of my everyday life. I truly believe that when you choose to have pets, you make the time for them. The people closest to me joke that I'm a bit of a "helicopter mom" with my animals, but I think that's exactly why we have such a strong bond. I love going above and beyond to make sure my pets are happy, healthy, and enriched. On nice days, I bring my cats out onto our secure porch so they can safely enjoy fresh air and sunshine. I hide treats around the house to create little "brain games" that keep them mentally stimulated, stay on top of their grooming and hygiene, and make sure each of my pets gets one-on-one attention every day. I think it's important that every animal feels loved as an individual, not just as part of the group. That same level of care is what I bring to every pet I look after. Whether it's sticking to their normal routine, making time for extra play, or simply giving them companionship while you're away, I'll care for them with the same dedication I give my own. I believe the best pet care starts with understanding both the pet's needs and the owner's expectations. I'm also a strong advocate for respecting boundaries—both yours and your pet's. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your furry family member can feel nerve-racking. My goal is to make that experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whether you prefer frequent updates, lots of photos, detailed visit summaries, or specific instructions on how you'd like your pet cared for, I'm happy to accommodate your preferences.

“Curt was easy to work with. I have a big dog that I trusted Curt with and a sometimes difficult reactive dog. It is hard to find someone who is patient with my difficult dog so it was nice to be able to get away for the night and know my dogs were safe!!!”

About: experienced, reliable, and genuinely dog-obsessed sitter who treats every pup like family. Whether your dog is a high-energy zoomie professional, a couch potato connoisseur, or a “needs three belly rubs before bedtime” type, I’ve got them covered. My schedule allows me to provide consistent care throughout the week. I work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, but I have a very flexible job that allows me to leave during the day for potty breaks, walks, or check-ins as long as the location isn’t too far away. This means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and I can easily accommodate midday care to keep them comfortable and on their normal routine. I have had dogs and cats my own. So I am very comfortable with creating. I do not have a gated fence but I live in a nice town where there are sidewalks for long walks.

About: I have owned pets, especially dogs most of my life. My last dog was a pittie mix my family adopted from the ASPCA, named Princess. We cared for her until she could no longer walk, went completely blind, and we sadly had to put her down with the vet. My family did not want another dog after Princess, but my love for dogs never stopped. Now grown-up, married, with a dog-loving husband, and a house of our own, I can happily say we are going to be bringing home a puppy of our own very soon! In the meantime I would be more than happy to dog-sit, care for, or walk your dog like they are my own. I am a Registered Nurse looking to bring in some extra money while doing something I love. Feel free to reach out if you are interested in my services- I am negotiable. Looking forward to meeting your furry friends and family! :) I’m currently working part-time as a nurse, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets whether it’s just for walks/ feeds/ play time, or for sitting.

I will gladly follow any practices you currently have in place for your pet while keeping their safety as my priority!

About: I am a lifelong animal lover, and have over 10 years experience in petsitting! Every single animal I’ve gotten to know leaves a lasting impression on me. I have had dogs my entire life, and have been through every stage of life with them. As well as the extra care that comes with them — whether it be medicine, extra potty breaks, feeding routines, messes, or whatever they need. I know how important it is to show love and attention to our pets from puppy to senior. I carry that love and responsibility with me to new pets I meet and care for! I understand what a privilege it is to be trusted with them, and it’s something I really take to heart that clients have trusted me to do. Our “pets” are our family! My priority is making sure you and them feel comfortable and safe during the time I get to spend with them. Every pet has their own quirks and routines, and learning those things are one of the things I enjoy most about doing this. I have two dogs, Koda and Kavik! My sister takes over while I am away. They both have plenty of quirks, but it makes them who they are and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. I’ve spent time from a few days to a month with dogs and cats, ranging from a single pet to four of each! All different types, sizes, and ages. Each and every one of them were a pleasure and I appreciate the trust that comes with having someone look after them and stay in your home! Please reach out for any further details or questions! I’m happy to answer and want to make sure you are comfortable. I currently have plenty of open time to spend with your animals! I have my own dogs, but live with family who share the caretaking responsibilities. I keep a safe and clean environment for your pets to roam or crate them if needed. I have experience administering medication and taking care of dogs and cats that need special attention and care. I like to take detailed notes and pictures on how you prefer your pet to be taken care of to make sure I’m taking care of them and on top of your pets needs.

“1st time using Laura - seemed genuinely interested in getting to know my dog Pickles, sent pictures and communicated before and after the visit to let me know how everything went. Will definitely be using Laura again when I need someone to care for my Pickles.”
