“Bobbie was a revolutionary sitter. We’ve never had such good communication and trust with someone we didn’t know. She took the best care of our kids and house.

I'm very good at following instructions having experienced with my sister's dog, who has a few health problems. I love when there is written instructions of how you would want me to take of your fur babies
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs for 10+ years and have two of my own. I have also pet sit in the past! I do not currently own a dog, so there would be no other fur babies in the house! I’m currently in a PA program, I love to get my puppy/cat fix in by dedicating some time weekly to be able to pet sit, walk, play, etc with fur babies. I care for your pets just as you would, with lots of love and play time!! If your pet loves going for walks, I’m your girl. I have been averaging 6 miles a day!

About: My family dog of 14 years just passed away 2 years ago. I helped care for him my whole life, and knew I was ready for my own! I now have my own pup named Blaze and he is my life. I love animals, and cant wait to meet so many more pups( and kitties) :) I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to go on long walks with dogs, or drop in several times a day to your home if that’s what your furry friend needs! I have a 6 month cavapoo pup who is full of energy. Long walks and lots of play time is a must for my pup! I can’t wait to offer other dogs the same.

About: I lived with a husky and a daschound for a couple of years recently with family and it was a lot of fun and great experience. I had small dogs growing up and I love large dogs too. I am very capable, reliable, and compassionate with both dogs and cats! I have extra time this summer, with more open availability than usual. I would love to help routinely (weekly or otherwise) with anyone that leaves their pets home alone a little bit more than they would prefer ideally! I have a larger space with an extra room, so I can temporarily take in at least two animals at my place if need be.
About: I have had dogs my whole life. They are loyal, fun and loving. I will care for your dog like they are my own because I understand how important they are to you!
