Pet Sitting in Mardela Springs

“Thank you for accommodating our very last minute request!”

“She was a great cat sitter for our 5 cats (3 of which required medicine). She sent us a message after every visit letting us know how everyone did and some very cute pictures. She went above and beyond with the time and care she gave our cats. We hope she’s available the next time we go on vacation!”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and small animals for as long as I can remember. My family always had a dog and at least 2 cats while I was coming up. I helped with puppy training, walks, play time, cleaning cat boxes, daily feedings, sometimes feeding schedules, and general love and affection. Today, I have 2 dogs, 3 cats, a bearded dragon, and a dwarf hamster of my own. My dogs are the sweetest and most loving. They love to play, snuggle, and get butt scratches. My cats are extremely affectionate....when they want to be. Daily feeding, watering, and weekly litter changes keep them happy and healthy. My bearded dragon has an amazing tank setup with a climbing log, a hideaway, a hammock, proper lighting and temp control, an ample sized food and water dish, and all the crickets and super worms her heart desires. My hamster is the newest addition to our farm. She sleeps most of the day, but I always make sure she has plenty of food to eat or stash, fresh water, something to chew on to keep her teeth filed down, and all the fluff she could want so she's able to tunnel, nest, and feel safe. Her house is cleaned weekly and new fluff is added. I love taking care of furry, 4-legged animals of all kinds. **Disclaimer: I do not take care of insects or arachnids. Strong phobia** I currently work as a 911 dispatcher. My shifts are 24 hours on, 72 hours off. I have ample time to make sure my pets are very well taken care of. I will take your pups outside as much as they want to go. I love playing with them and watching them run around and be happy. Walkies are a daily thing. Every dog needs their exercise. I'll love and cuddle your cats until they've had enough and decide to get up. Play time, treat time, potty time, you name it and I'll be there for it. If your pup likes to ride, well then we'll go galavanting with our heads out the window and tongues in the wind! Every dog is a lap dog no matter their size. Some dogs deal with separation anxiety, and it's heartbreaking for us as pet parents. Let me ease your mind and be there for your puppers when you can't be.

“Amber was amazing with my cat Pepper while I was away, she sent photos of him to ensure he was ok and went above and beyond when my stay was extended and I had to add an extra day. I would highly recommend her to all pet parents looking for a pet sitter!”

“Heather did a wonderful job watching my 2 cats! She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. She took out the trash and locked up as requested. I will definitely use her again!”

“Lacey was wonderful at the meet and greet we set up. The dogs liked her and when she came to let them out and play with them she spent 30-45 min . She made sure they peed before she left and had plenty of water. I will be using her frequently when we have to be out for more than 3-4 hrs. She is very careful to make sure the dogs are well cared for while she is here. Communication is excellent.”

Darlene H.

“She took great care of my kittens. Will definitely use her again!”

About: I’ve had dogs and have been taking care of family and friends dogs and cats for over 10 years. My family has had healthy dogs and dogs that have had medical issues over the years, and so I’m knowledgeable in looking after a dog who has undergone surgery, or who requires special care due to paralyzation. I love all animals and friends have relied on me to house sit their dogs while they go away on trips or vacations for multiple days at a time, sometimes with more than one dog at a time, or additional pets as well, so I’m very experienced in addressing each animals needs, while also sending “daily nanny cam” updates to family and friends so they can see their pets during the day and know that they’re happy and doing well. I work full time, but work from home two out of the five days, so I would be able to take your dog on multiple walks during the day, come over and stay with them for a few hours to play, or even house sit them for the day or several days if you’re going away for a trip. If they require special medication I just ask that you leave me their vitamin/mediation schedule and will administer based on your instructions. My family dog loves to cuddle with me in my lap and when she’s not allowed on the furniture, I’ll often sit on the floor with her so that she can snuggle with me. On the days that I work from home, I would be happy to stay at your home with your pets making sure their needs are met. I love my family pets and will give your pets the same love and affection that I give mine. My animals are allowed to snuggle with me on the couch or on the bed (unless you don’t want them on the furniture/ there are behavioral issues I need to be aware of, I would have them do the same thing). I walk my family dog in the afternoons and play with her throughout the day with dog toys and fetch, but will monitor if it looks like the toy is coming apart and could pose a risk to them. I would follow all instructions left when it comes to house sitting/walks/or day sitting, and would ask for you to share any behavioral issues or triggers with me in advance so I care be aware of them prior to taking your pets out on walks or just in day to day interactions. This allows me to be aware for your pets safety and the safety of any other animals we could come around. If a dog doesn’t seem friendly while we’re on a walk, I would remove your dog from that situation to try and keep them as safe as possible. I will also always reach out to contact you if there are any issues or questions I have about daily activities, medications, etc. When I dog sit at someone’s home, I recognize that I am really there just to look after their pet, so I don’t leave the house for extended periods of time and will actually put on animal shows for the pets to watch, including planet earth, or Disney pet movies. I also like to send updates that I called “nanny cams”, which are photos or videos of your pet playing or just hanging about so that you can have peace of mind that they’re happy and you can also see them while you’re away and receive updates. I will always communicate with you very openly to ensure you have peace of mind while I’m taking care of your pet.

“Nico loves Amy. Amy was very caring, took Nico for a long walk and gave him treats and dinner. Took great pics and arrived on time. Thank you Amy!!!!!”

“Hope was great! She accepted the job last minute and won over our normally wary cat. We’re grateful for her level of communication and trustworthiness. Definitely recommend and would love to hire again next time we go away. Thanks!”

About: I have had pets all my life pretty much! I have always grown up with dogs, but over the last 7-8 years I have experience with cats as well! I currently am not working so I have been trying to pet sit for people as much as I can! I have open availability always. I am always very careful when going to a client's home and always follow their rules and what they ask me to do and am always respectful of their home

“Hilary was on time and was very good with Munchkin. She was able to administer her medications, including her insulin. I look forward to using Hilary again.”

About: Hoping to make your day easier by offering trusted car of your beloved pet when you’re not available! Our household has 2 cats and 2 dogs currently, and I’ve helped extensively train my first dog with the help of a professional. I work swing schedule, so my days off vary- some weeks I have 4-5 days off, some weeks it’s only 3. Hoping to help wherever I can! I have a fenced in yard in our home, however our dogs were taken on walks before we got our fence installed this past year.

About: I have a dog of my own, Kilee, who has been with me since I was 7! I have experience meeting the special needs of elderly dogs and puppies. I am comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I’m a college student looking to make some money in my free time by doing something I love! Monday through Friday I have classes with some breaks in between where I can drop by and help out with your pet. I have a fenced yard and live in a gated community where your pet can be walked in a safe environment with little traffic. My home is clean and safe for pets, with a utility room for their boarding.

About: I’ve cared for dogs by walking them, keeping them active, and making sure they’re safe and happy. I’m reliable, nurturing, and animals naturally feel comfortable around me. I grew up around both cats and dogs, and I intuitively understand their needs and behaviors. I also take excellent care of my own cat, Willow, feeding her a raw diet and paying close attention to her emotional and physical needs. Pet care isn’t just a task to me—it’s something I truly enjoy. I’m flexible and available most days of the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I like building a rhythm with each pet and can adapt to your schedule easily. I care for pets as if they’re my own—respectfully and attentively. I follow your routines closely, keep their space clean and calm, and make sure they feel safe, seen, and loved. I create a peaceful environment they can trust.
