“Heather is always so reliable and wonderful with our babies!”


About: I’ve had animals since I was a child. I grew up with cats and dogs. Taking care of animals has always been a huge passion of mine. Whether it is taking care of my own, volunteering at rescues, or taking care of the stray kittens in the area, you can only find me doing something animal related. I work at home and make my own schedule so I have a lot of availability on when I can take care of animals and how often I can give them attention. I have one 2 1/2 year-old dog who is very friendly with other dogs and cats. I also have a 13-year-old cat who is very relaxed and gets along well with anyone else.

“William and his wife came every day for a week while I was working to take my Labrador Retriever for a walk! They were so nice and very reliable! Bodhi and I were very happy and grateful for their help! Thank you :) Would very much recommend and use next time we are in the area :)”


“Jamie is THE best! Daisy loves her and Jamie takes such great care of her.”


About: With years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, I offer more than just pet sitting—I provide dependable, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m comfortable with a variety of temperaments and routines, and I always prioritize making pets feel safe, happy, and relaxed. One thing that sets me apart is my ability to handle basic dog bathing and coat care, so your pup can come home clean and fresh. I also maintain clean feeding and litter areas, follow detailed instructions closely, and provide regular updates so you stay connected while you’re away. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, and I take pride in being fully available to care for your pets whenever you need it. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day playtime, or evening cuddle sessions, I’m flexible and adapt to each pet’s needs. With open availability throughout the week, I can accommodate last-minute requests or regular visits, ensuring your pets receive the attention they deserve at all times. Your pet’s care is my priority, and I’m committed to providing consistent, loving support in your absence. When caring for pets in my home or yours, safety and trust are my top priorities. In my home, I create a pet-friendly environment with secure areas, safe spaces for play, and plenty of cozy spots for rest. I ensure all pets are supervised during activities, and I follow any specific instructions you provide to maintain their routine and comfort.

About: I go for long walks on a daily basis and thoroughly enjoy the outdoors. I am nurturing and caring by nature which would spill over in my care for your canine family member. I am also patient and willing to work with challenging or sensitive dogs. Interested in working with a dog owner that concisely communicates all the needs of their canine companion so that this experience can be beneficial for ALL parties involved, particularly your dog. I have taken care of my friend's cat and dog (she's a veterinarian) for a number of years and have enjoyed the interaction and the dynamics of the relationship between her animals. I can be energetic and playful as well with your animal as well as cuddly and loving when I sense that is there particular desire. I am available during my lunch hour daily to assist with short walks. As I am a remote worker I can cater my lunch to my needs on most days. I would ask the owner for explicit instructions on how to keep the animal safe regarding allergies or triggers for the pet. I also believe in giving pet owners concise accounts of my experience with their animal and pictures during our interactions.

Ohana means family and family means nobody gets left behind. I also did dog training and completed it. I just never actually got to open my own dog training program. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I do sometimes sub at my kids school. But for the most part I’m home. Means lots of time to play with your babies and give them all the attention they need. While I am able to do that I am still a mom and I do have to do things while I’m not home your baby will safely be kenneled. I have a huge yard it is not fenced but I do have a small area that is fenced. I have 2 friendly dogs that love to play. I will also be able to crate them for their safety when I’m not home.

About: I have taken care of pets all throughout growing up, friends and family have relied and trusted me with pet care. I absolutely adore animals and wish to provide them with the best care possible. I’m currently unemployed, so I am basically free whenever needed.

I work from home Monday - Friday and have most availability evenings, weekends and some mornings. I can be flexible with your schedule and mine. I have a fenced in front deck however I always believe in leashing before the door is open and will abide by the owners instructions

“Amanda did a great job with my bulldog Walter! I would highly recommend her .”



“I have not left my pets without friends in 12 years. I recently moved to Hazleton and had no friends nearby to watch my fur babies while my son and I went to my daughter's wedding in Florida. Jule made that part of the trip so much easier for me and Beau and Kalani! I truly left the babies is her very competent and loving care! I saw photos of the kids laying in bed watching television with Jule and they were perfectly content! She truly loves animals and communicates with them and they with her. She left my house in great condition and even put some wipes in my house while Corona Virus was spreading - I would not have been able to get any when I returned and feel blessed by her thoughtfulness and concern! You can not go wrong with Jule caring for your pet(s)!”


About: As a lifelong dog lover and Golden Retriever owner, I treat every pup like family — with patience, structure, and plenty of love. I have experience raising puppies (including crate training and managing food sensitivity) and caring for senior dogs who need a gentler touch. What sets me apart is my calm, consistent approach and attention to each dog’s personality and needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and I truly enjoy building trust — not just with your dog, but with you too. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or keeping routines on track, I’m here to make your pet feel safe and happy while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine — I have two lovable Golden Retrievers of my own, so walks, playtime, and structured care are already built into my day. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention, consistency, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks, midday exercise, or evening snuggles, I’m used to providing calm, attentive care throughout the day. Pet sitting isn’t just a side task — it’s something I truly enjoy and prioritize. Whether in my home or yours, I care for pets with the same love, structure, and attention I give my own dogs. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, pet-friendly environment with room to play, structured routines, and plenty of snuggles. I keep a consistent schedule for meals, walks, potty breaks, and downtime, and I’m happy to accommodate crate training or special needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and stress-free — feeding, walks, playtime, and medications (if needed) are all handled with care. I respect your space, follow instructions closely, and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and safety.

About: I have taken care of my family’s dog, a chocolate lab, for the 13 years he was with us. When we first got our dog, I was only 3, so I have grown up around dogs and am very comfortable with small or large pets. I have taken care of other pets for neighbors, friends, and family when needed to walk, feed, bathe, or just take a quick visit to check in! I am currently taking summer classes, but have a lot of free time being home from college for the summer, so I can be available any day of the week for pet care. I am comfortable with early mornings to later evenings. I have a lot of experience looking after my dog for many years and love to walk outside, play catch outside, or do more calm indoor activities with dogs if needed.

About: I have experience with dogs, cats and exotics especially parrots! I have experience with snakes, bearded dragons, rats , Guinea pigs and rats too I’ve watched various neighbors dogs for years and always focus on giving them a fun day since it’s really stressful when your a dog family leaves even for a few days. I currently have no pets at the moment so I can dedicate time to yours! I am working part time so I have a very flexible schedule and my own reliable transportation. With notice I can easily modify my routine to make sure I’m there for your pet In my home I current have it parrot proofed. So we have no chemical or anything toxic that can easily be gotten into. I also make sure not to keep any toxic foods in the house as an extra level of precaution and know that you cannot leave them alone because you never know what any pet will get into especially when their routine is disrupted

About: I have never been without an animal. A portion of my home is now empty and I am able to take on some pet sitting duties so you don’t have to have strangers coming into your home! I also do overnights at your home as well and can give references. I generally work dayshift m-f based on the school calendar so days we have no school I am off as well and off weekends of course. Any other times needed just ask. :-) Your pets will have free reign of the area unless you want otherwise. Walks, treats, meals, schedules are based on what you tell me they need.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I begged my family for one at the age of 7! I also adopted my very own dog 3 years ago! I have trained my family dog as well as my own dog currently! I have watched and walked a variety of breeds, ages, disciplines, and personalities of dogs! I walked dogs in college and am looking forward to getting back into it! I am a physician assistant student at Marywood looking to make some extra funds and have fun while doing so! I look forward to caring for and walking dogs in the near future! I’m currently a physician assistant student on clinical rotations. My schedule changes about every 5 weeks but I am more than willing to accommodate this job and will take the time to give each of your pets the necessary attention and love! I am diligent, reliable, trustworthy, and friendly! I love animals so much! I will respect your property, privacy, and space as I care for your pet and walk your pet.

About: I’m a DelVal graduate with my Bachelor’s degree in Small Animal Science. I’ve also worked with animals at the zoo and at wildlife rehabilitation centers. I love animals and enjoy taking care of them. I’ve had all sorts of pets growing up and have experience with just about any type of animal. I can give SubQ injections as needed and am happy to provide any special treatment or care your pet may need. I’m very flexible with the restrictions I put on my profile so if you have any questions about the services I can provide please feel free to ask. I’ve had bad experiences with pet sitters in the past and I can guarentee I will treat your pet with the respect and love he or she deserves, as well as your home if applicable. Have a nice day!!

About: My love for animals knows no bounds, and I will treat your beloved pets with the same care and attention that I give to my own. My dog lives a life of luxury, and I have lovingly raised a Rottweiler female who holds a special place in my heart. Taking care of her has shown me that I am capable of overcoming any challenge. When she was a puppy, we had to rely on Rover because she couldn't be left alone, so I understand the immense trust involved in leaving your baby in someone else's care. I would be honored to assist with your new puppy, high-energy dog, or older dog in need of some fresh air. I also have a soft spot for cats and would be delighted to spend time with them. My experience working with a nonprofit for cats has given me valuable insight into the diverse and delightful personalities these feline companions can have. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your treasured pets. I'm right by Waterfront Park, so I'd love to take them for a fantastic walk or run, depending on their energy level. Let's chat about what your pup enjoys most and their favorite toys! I understand how important it is to care for our pets like our children. They deserve love, attention, and all the essentials to thrive. I appreciate that everyone has their approach to caring for their pets, and I will fully respect and honor how you would like me to care for yours.

Tori B.
“Tori is fantastic. I’ve known her for years now through a volunteer organization we both belonged too. She is kind, hard working and conscientious. I knew she was the perfect person to ask when I needed help with my yellow lab, Beckett, while I was out of town for the day. She showed up on time, walked & fed her and made sure the house was locked up again before she left. I highly recommend her!”


Dena D.
“She is, was, and will always be a great pet owner. Her love for her own pet, and the type of detailed oriented and organized person that she is, plus how dependable she is for the majority of her life, or as long as I've known her, fills me with enough confidence to say that I would trust her with my fur babies lives without a doubt.”


jillian m.

After he passed at the old age of 14, she and her boyfriend went together to get their dog Koda! He is a handsome golden retriever and the love of Megan’s life! She such a devoted mom to Koda. I love watching the two of them together! She will be a wonderful addition to the job opening. The dogs will love her and she will love them!”
