Animal Lover/Flexible Availability!
Pet care experience
Hello there! I’m Sierra. I’m a 30 year old Penn State Graduate and animal lover. I have 12+ years of experience caring for animals and I'm always ready to make some new pup friends via walks, in-home sitting, and drop-ins! I also love to care for cats :) I am highly responsive, trustworthy, loving and adore animals. I will care for yours as if they were my own, in the comfort of their own home or mine! I have experience with dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments. My schedule is flexible and I love exercise and being outside, so let me know what your pup loves! I do have a little girl who may come along with me sometimes. She has grown up around animals so she is very gently and loves them. I do ask that all my pet clients be friendly with children in case she is with me. Because the last thing you need is to worry about your dog or cat’s happiness and safety during your vacation or work day, you will receive regular updates from me as well as photos of your precious pup or kitty. Check out my gallery here for a look at what their staycation will be like. If you have any other needs while you are gone, please let me know. I can bring in the mail, monitor pool chemicals, water plants and rotate lights and blinds for a lived-in look. I happily do this for my current families and it is included in my rate. My clients and their pets are like family to me and I treat them with love and respect. Send me a message and we can discuss your dates and needs and set up a meet and greet. I look forward to adding you to the family soon :)
Reviews
Awesome as always!!! 5 stars isn’t enough!!
This is the second time we’ve had Sierra watch our dogs while we were out of town for the weekend. The dogs always seem so happy and we’ll cared for when we return, and we love the photos updated Sierra sends a couple times a day. We highly recommend Sierra if you’re looking for someone to keep your pets happy and healthy while you’re away!
Absolutely the best experience! I received daily pics of my fur baby which helped to keep him close while I was away. Sierra is a doll. She really cares. Cannot recommend her enough!!!!
Sierra is a delight! My family went out of town for a long weekend, and Sierra dogsat/housesat for us. We have a 75 lb Shepherd/Pyrenees mix (Bernie), so she isn’t the easiest, and Sierra did a tremendous job of burning off her some energy as well as watching our little Boston and Luna kitty. She kept us updated with pictures and asked questions when needed. She even took Bernie to her first baseball game! Haha! Our flight got delayed and Sierra was incredibly accommodating and just really great to work with. My wife and I highly recommend her for simple walks or full housesitting. She’ll do a great job for ya

I like to get a feel for your pet's individual needs - does your pup need tons of exercise and like to go for long runs? Need a slower-paced walk around the block? Is your dog still working on socialization, and not quite ready for encounters with other animals? Does your cat take time to warm up to new faces? Please let me know if you or your pet have any special needs, tips, or tricks. I aim to tailor my services to every client so there's really no such thing as giving me too much information!
Information Sierra C. would like to know about your pet
At our first Meet and Greet visit, I'll ask a variety of questions to learn more about you and your pet such as age and breed, their typical schedule, sleeping arrangements, whether he or she has any triggers or anxieties, and whether it's okay to give your pet treats.
A typical day
For walks and drop-ins, I always come equipped with toys, treats, and care supplies (extra leashes, harnesses, etc.). I will send an update and photo after every visit. When I house-sit I offer all-around care, including providing fresh water and food, administering medication if needed, lots of walks, TLC and playtime, and daily updates with photos. My pet sitting rates include morning and evening care and I'm happy to talk to you about adding more visits or walks throughout the day, as needed!
