Elizabeth was great with the animals and their care. She was right on time, and did everything that was necessary. I would definitely recommend her if someone needs a sitter.

About: I grew up with cats, dogs, reptiles, and rodents. I lived on a farm for years with cows, chickens, turkeys, and quail! Big or small, scaley or fluffy, I love all animals and will give them the respect and care they need. 150lb newfy who wants head pats and to drool on me? Absolutely! 6lb 20 year old cat who wants to yell at me and avoid eye contact? Say less. I've dealt with epileptic dogs, bladder stones in cats, and even beakless chickens. I'm up for any challenge! As someone lucky enough to work from home, I can position my job around your pet schedule. Weather I bring my laptop and snuggle up with your pup for the afternoon, take lunch and take a walk with your pooch, or stop in in the evening after my shift to give your cat head kisses. I'm flexible and willing to work with you. Whatever your pets need, I'm your gal. I had 6 dogs growing up and like to think I know how to read them. Your pets safety and your trust in me are my top priority. As an overbearing cat mom, I know just how important your pets are to your family.

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet lover based in Schuylkill Haven. I work full-time during the day, so I specialize in evening and weekend pet care. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pets with someone, and I treat every pet like my own. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and safe while you’re away. I’m calm, dependable, and great with routines—perfect for pets who like consistency. Whether your dog needs a walk after dinner or your cat needs a check-in while you’re away, I’ve got you covered! I’m available most evenings after 5 PM and flexible on weekends. I’d love to meet you and your pet! I work full time during the day and can take care of your pets for drop ins and walks in the evening hours and most weekends! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before every visit. For walks, I always stay aware of our surroundings, and avoid unsafe situations like heavy traffic or unfamiliar dogs. During drop-in visits or sitting, I make sure pets are fed properly, have fresh water, and feel comfortable in their environment. I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and to treat your pet with the same care I would my own.

Megan is amazing. I set her up to care for my mom’s dogs after she had surgery for a broken ankle and was non-weight bearing. Megan was available last second, went to the house 4 times a day like clockwork, and took such wonderful, loving care of Louis and Brie. And was so very sweet to my mom. I had such peace of mind knowing that the dogs were cared for and safe and my mom could rest and start to heal without worry for them. If you are in need of pet sitting services in her area, PLEASE contact Megan. She’s a godsend and will not disappoint. I would hire her again in a second, and as I’m a veterinarian, I’m very picky with my family’s animals and know what great care looks like. Thank you so much, Megan!!

Emili was wonderfully patient with our cat, who did not dare show his face to her. Despite our cat's shyness, Emili made sure that he was well fed and taken care of. We're so grateful to her and thanks to her care we came home to a cat who missed us quite a bit. Thank you so much for taking care of our boy, Emili! :)

About: I've grown up with multiple dogs at a time, never had a period of time where I was not around dogs. I've raised them from birth to passing away. I love playing with them, caring for them, being there for them and providing love to them. I love going for walks in the parks, around development, etc. Whatever the pup/dog likes to do is fine with me, I have a lot of history with them so I'd be more than happy to provide for any dog! I do have a lot of references just not on rover, they can be provided upon speaking/meeting! I am very accommodating and can stick to your pets schedule as close as possible to yours! I can work my schedule around whatever is needed for care. For example, pets needing strict medicine schedule. I do work during the day but am available with notice! I can provide drop in visits, pet taxi to groomers or vets, dog parks, etc. Cages would need to be provided especially for multiple pets while I am out of the home. Pets have full range of the home. We have gates for the stairs at top and bottom!

About: I respect every animal’s unique needs. I’ll make sure your pets get plenty of love, attention, and activity to help them burn off energy and feel happy, because that’s exactly what they deserve! I work remotely with a flexible schedule and am usually at home throughout the week. Even when I step out, I am only gone for a little bit! I remain available Monday through Sunday. I have a fenced yard, enjoy going on daily walks, and love spending time with animals. I’m also able to accommodate any special care or routines they may need.

I only have cats in my current home, but I keep them inside at all times and make sure they are fed and loved, and play time is super important.

About: My name is Renee and I am a very experienced animal care giver. I am a lifelong volunteer at an environment education and wildlife rehabilitation center. From furry to scaly to feathery I have loved them all. I would regularly puppy sit my grand dogs but, unfortunately, they have all moved far away. I have a great deal of love to give unconditionally. Your home will be cared for as well. I “move in”. I keep your pets routine and I am respectful to your home. You will find your home clean and tidy and ready for your return. I keep plants watered, mail collected and messages taken. Your pet deserves all my attention. I consider sitting as priority and will give your pet all the love you would. This is not only your vacation but their time for some R&R. I am very undisciplined within reason, kind of like a visiting grandma. We will play, run, swim (if allowed) and cuddle. Always kindness and understanding, even if mistakes happen, and I am sure they will.

About: I absolutely LOVE all dogs!!! I truly do believe we don’t deserve their unconditional love. I have helped take care of all kinds of dogs for friends and family for the last 10 years and became a dog mom myself about 7 years ago to my pitbull/lab mix. He is a rescue and unfortunately wasn’t treated well in his previous life so I am definitely familiar with dealing with a dog having triggers and knowing how to read their body language. Needing to get a sitter for my own dog when I travel, I understand the importance of leaving a part of your family with someone that both you and your dog feel safe and comfortable with! My pup is my whole world and I will love your fur baby as much as I do my own. I work part time from my home so I’m able to have all the flexibility of being able to care for and enjoy the company of your dog. I am comfortable with whatever needs your dog will require. Long walks, feedings, medications and of course play time and cuddles are just some of what I am able to help with.

Serena did a fantastic job dropping in for our two kitties while we were away on vacation. We were in an area with spotty cell service, but always received an update on how things were at the house. We feel very lucky to have found Serena and will book again for our next trip as she went above and beyond. Thank you!
