I Treat Your Fur Babies As My Own

Pet care experience

About this sitter I live with two mellow cats, Midnight and Buddha, who have grown up with dogs. Buddha thinks he’s a dog and always greets every dog that comes in whether or not they have been here before. Midnight is friendly but typically hides for awhile until she comes out. Why I love dog sitting I find pet sitting quite rewarding. I enjoy walking the dogs; it’s beneficial to both the fur babies as well as myself both physically and mentally. I’m fortunate enough to meet all breeds, sizes and personalities having pet sitting as a full time career. I’m a certified, former veterinarian assistant who finds pet sitting much more rewarding.

Roberta is absolutely wonderful, we are so blessed to have gotten connected with her. Our pup Basil LOVES going to Roberta’s to play, as soon as we turn the corner she knows where she’s going and can’t get out of the car fast enough! Roberta is incredibly kind and understanding with my anxiety and worry over our pup, she’s our baby! Roberta sends photo updates and is very responsive letting us know how she is doing! It is such a blessing knowing our pup is well cared for while we are away. I highly recommend Roberta and her services!

Roberta is absolutely wonderful! Our pup Basil is usually very nervous, a bit of separation anxiety. Roberta spent time with us during the meet and greet and answering any questions we may of had while Basil and Paco played. On her first day of day care Basil knew exactly where she was and was extremely excited to go play! She was immediately comfortable and was happy to be left to play! Roberta sent photos and updates throughout the day of how much fun Basil was having. Roberta is absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend her (and Paco!!) Basil can’t wait to come back to play!

Our dog recently developed health issues that require more attention, and Roberta takes on the challenges! It is clear how much Roberta loves our dog, and he loves her.

Information Roberta S. would like to know about your pet

I just like to know where your fur kid goes to the vet and if they have allergies with foods, etc. If they’re leash reactive or if they don’t get along with other dogs or cats.

A typical day

I like taking the dogs in the Spring and Summer to Nolde Forest as it’s close to my home. I also like taking them to walk at Wyomissing park.
