“Had another great stay with Beth, Bud, & Ruby. Molly loves staying there, she was excited whenever we pulled into the driveway, and Beth keeps in touch with great pics and updates. You can definitely feel the love and affection that she has for all dogs...and cats. Thanks again, and see you again soon!”
“I was happy with Muddy's stay at Brian's. He has a ton of experience and it was clear Muddy was in excellent hands. The communication was great, and I definitely would recommend Brian!”
“This was my first time boarding a pet, so I was a little nervous on what to expect. Faith answered my questions very quickly and made me feel more comfortable with the process. She had my dog for three days and gave plenty of updates with photos. She was also willing to work with me on pick up times to accommodate my schedule. She took great care of my dog and I will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“We needed an emergency sitting since our previous solution couldn't address our needs at the last minute. In comes Megan to the rescue! She could not be more pleasant and while our dog isn't necessarily comfortable with strangers, he warmed up to Megan and they were best buddies by the time we picked him up. Would definitely recommend and use her again.”
“Janel was wonderful with my very high energy dog. She took him on a lot of walks and sent pics of their adventures together. Would highly recommend her. Worth the price for the peace of mind & the great experience for my dog.”
“Hodge had a great time at Amber's and made good friends with her pups and her kids! I'm always happy to leave him in an welcoming, family atmosphere instead of a kennel. Amber was very communicative and accommodating; she sent me pics and an update every day. Highly recommended!”
About: I have hands-on experience raising and training three dogs of my own, currently aged 2, 3, and 4. I’ve cared for them since they were puppies, handling everything from basic obedience training to daily walks, feeding, grooming, and socialization. I’m a nursing student home for the summer and looking for a fun, active way to earn extra income. I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood or some playtime in the yard, your pup will be in good hands! Your pup will be cared for in a safe, loving environment at my home, which has a fully fenced-in yard perfect for play and exercise. Dogs are always supervised and treated like family whether we’re enjoying outdoor time or relaxing inside, your dog will feel right at home.
“Michelle was so incredibly wonderful, I honestly feel like I have hit the jackpot with finding her and her husband. My Griff was so happy he didn't even realize I was done. Hands down best experience I have had thus far! Will be a repeat customer!”
“We couldn’t have wished for better dog sitters then Crystal & Jadon. Puddles has anxiety when she’s separated from us and gets VERY whiny. Crystal & Jadon worked with her to get her calmed down when we left. They were very patient with her and took a lot of picture and kept us updated the whole time we were away. She slept with Jadon and even played a little bit. We were somewhat gun shy after a bad experience with another local dog boarding business. We can’t say enough wonderful, positive things about Crystal & Jadon. They will definitely be our sitter for any future traveling.”
“I live in VA but was traveling to PA to go snowboarding on a last minute trip. None of my regular sitters were available so I decided to look in PA. Kristina and Mark were great! Thor had such a great time with their 3 German Shepherds. I was really impressed with how they handled the meet and greet. Kristina brought each dog out one at a time to meet Thor. Then they all came out together and made Thor feel right at home. Kristina sent pictures and videos, and Thor was always smiling! I snowboard a lot in PA, so I'll definitely be requesting them to watch Thor again.”
About: Hello! I’ve had a dog through my entire life. I have experience with puppies as well as elderly dogs. I also am experience in handling deaf and blind dogs, as my dog has these impairments. I currently work full time while in law school part time. I am available after 4:00pm on weekdays. On the weekends, I can be flexible. Just shoot me a message! I have one small dog who is house trained. We take her for walks around our neighborhood or leash her in the yard. She will remain away from any animals that I would be caring for as she is a very old girl.

About: I’ve taken care of cats for a year but I also had a cat growing up. When I did have 2 cats they were my world. I enjoyed every minute when I had them. I’m very passionate about caring for cats. I was working full time at the hospital but I’m free every day Monday-Friday until I get the job that I want but after I get that job I’m still available I don’t have a fenced back yard but my neighbor is a pet friendly environment. I’m near a park that is safe for animals as well.

During the summer I can care for pets either in your home or mine. I have a fenced yard and a great walking trail near me so you’re dog will be happy to stay with me :)
About: I have watched multiple types of dogs including: shih tzu, Yorkies, Pomeranian, lab, poodles, redbones, border collie, boxers, pit bulls, jack Russells, and Chihuahuas. I have bathed, cut hair/ nails, brushed, and given medicine to many dogs. I have fed, watered, walked, ran, and scratched dogs. I have kept multiple dogs overnight, during the day and in the evening. I have taken dogs to the vet, let them out periodically, and just stopped by to give them some attention also! In the end, I really truly do love all dogs and I just want to give them the love and attention they deserve. I have availability through out most evenings from 4pm - 11pm. I could also do some earlier in the morning for a couple hours with enough notice. Weekends I’m fully free. I can also do overnight and then morning drop offs if needed. Or I could keep them at my house during the day and stop by a few times to let them out (I’m right next door)! I will give them food / water / medicine when directed. I will give them treats when deserved or directed. I will take them on walks, play with them, and let them out periodically to use the bathroom. I will give them lots of cuddles and scratches if that’s something they are interested in!
