About: I stand out from other pet sitters because I treat every animal as if they were my own, paying close attention to their unique personalities, routines, and needs. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented, so you’ll always know your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, providing extra playtime, or giving nervous pets the patience they need, I go the extra mile to make sure both pets and their owners feel completely at ease. Pet sitting is something I truly enjoy, and I’m available 24/7 to make sure your pets are always cared for. I love spending time with animals, learning their personalities, and keeping them happy, comfortable, and relaxed. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or overnight care, I’m always here when you need reliable, attentive support. I will keep pets safe by following owner instructions, supervising closely, maintaining routine, using leashes, restricting access, and monitoring health and behavior constantly carefully daily.

About: I've had a plethora of animals over my 35 years of existence. Dog breeds include a Labrador, Border Collie, Beagle, German Shepard, and Chihuahua. Other species include six rats, one guinea pig, three rabbits, two corn snakes, and a bearded dragon. I do not have any children, and I'm living with my father. Together, we have two dogs, (one his, and the other mine), a garage cat (his), and a bearded dragon (mine). His dog is a German Shepard named Wren, and mine is a Chihuahua named Milo. Additionally, I quit the job I've had for years, so I have a fairly flexible schedule. All of our animals have schedules for everything. Potty breaks, food times, etc. We keep it fairly strict, but also know how to read our animals, and so the schedule is subject to slight changes. I can adapt, and learn new schedules for clients.

About: I have watched and cared for puppies through senior dogs, performed basic grooming needs, administered medications, and watched many different breeds including corgis, pitbull mixes, french bulldogs, and larger mixed breeds. I currently work from home, mostly second shift, with a fairly flexible schedule. As long as I have Internet, I am able to work from almost anywhere (within reason obviously lol). I am often up late, but don’t mind early morning walks. I currently reside at home with family in an in-law suite that has the capability to be closed off from the rest of the house. This addition has two of its own entrances with access to both a large front and backyard. I have an SUV so I am able transport crates and larger breeds if needed. I am also able to provide care in your own home that will be up to your standards and conveys that I will treat your animal(s) as I would my own.

About: I've had dogs my entire life and absolutely love taking care of them! I am a full time stay at home mom. I'm available anytime. I love taking walks and we go to parks and walks all the time so the dogs would get plenty of exercise. They will be well taken care of and loved. I can give baths if needed, will also brush the dogs. Absolutely love getting to play with dogs and have them running around and enjoying their time outside! I'm pretty flexible on times and what all would need to be done. I am willing to travel to your house and walk the dogs, feed and water them as needed and anything else that needs to be done to care for your dog. This just has to be done at certain times. I have three kids, 8, 6, and 1 they absolutely love animals as well and are nice to the dogs! We live in a small mobile home park and dogs are allowed so no worries there. I can watch the dog while you're on vacation or however, whenever is needed if I get some notice! I am a stay at home mom so I'm home all day almost every day. I can take them outside to play a lot too. I don't have a fenced yard so dogs would be leashed and will get long walks. They will get toys inside as well to play with and fed and watered as requested. Im a stay at home mama so i have plenty of time to play and take care of your pups!! I also have 3 little helpers to run out some of their energy! I don't have a fenced yard so they will be leashed but there is a dog park very close to me that's fenced in and i am more than happy to take them there and run out some energy!

About: Lifelong animal lover with a goofy, friendly husky who keeps me active and smiling every day! Daily walks, playtime, cuddles, and lots of love are already part of my routine, and I would love to share that with your fur baby too. Your pet will be treated like family in my care—whether they need exercise, attention, belly rubs, or just a comfy companion. I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Bonus: my husky loves making new friends, and I also share his funny adventures on social media for fellow pet lovers to enjoy! I dedicate quality time to every pet and treat pet care seriously—whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or dog boarding. I make sure they get plenty of playtime, attention, comfort, and care based on their needs. You’ll also receive lots of picture updates so you can feel connected while you’re away. Communication is very important to me, and I always keep pet parents updated and informed. I offer dog boarding in a safe home with a fenced yard for plenty of supervised playtime, as well as walks and house sitting. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs and will make sure they receive lots of exercise, love, and care, along with regular photo updates.

About: Growing up I’ve always been around dogs. Taking care of them has been in my daily routine since I can remember. Throughout my high school years I dog sat frequently which allowed me to get experience with all types of breeds. I am currently a college student & miss having animals in my daily life & will care for your pets like they are my own. In the summers I am a giraffe attendant at a wildlife park & my past two years at school I have worked at a dairy farm. I am currently a student at Delaware Valley University. I am also a student athlete, I run cross country & track & field. So my schedule varies weekly. But I have lots of flexibility to make visits. I will treat all pets like they are my own. I will meet all the requirements the owners ask of me & make their animal my number one priority when I am with them.

About: Large Animal Science graduate, have completed the vet tech, dog grooming, and agility courses at BCAHS. Experience with diverse/exotic animal caretaking rolls, canine cpr certified, lots of experience with difficult dog breeds. My schedule with work is very flexible. Usually I tend to walk my dog for a 1-2 hours a day. It is extremely important that my dog Nala gets exercise each day to make sure she stays happy and healthy. Sometimes I also take my cat on the walks as well (he loves spending time outside with his sister with his harness and leash on!). Weekends have much more flexibility with my schedule. It is extremely important to make sure that any animal feels comfortable in their environment. Giving them the opportunity to take bathroom breaks and keeping pets on their normal schedule is very important. Giving pets access to fresh drinking water, specific foods, and medications as needed is also crucial. Providing proper exercise and mental enrichment only helps to further improve an animal’s experience in their surroundings as well.

About: My name is Abigail. I live in New Columbia, PA but travel regularly to Williamsport, selinsgrove and surrounding areas. I have lived with at least one dog and multiple cats my entire life. I've always been responsible for feeding, watering, taking the dogs out, walking them, attending vet visits, etc. I previously owned a Saint Bernard mix, so I'm not afraid of large dogs. I also own a Pitbull mix, so I’m not afraid of them either. I have been bitten by a dog before, but that doesn't stop me from loving them. My life goal is to become a veterinarian, but due to school tuition I cannot make that dream come true. I figure pet sitting, dog walking, etc to be close and fulfilling enough. I have experience with geriatric care, as my current dog is a senior and has hip dysplasia and arthritis. I’m currently off of work for the summer as a school bus driver! During the school year, I am available between 8:00am to 1:30pm, as well as 4:00pm to 10:00pm. Safety is very important! I always make sure the owner’s safety requirements are met during the stay at their home, even if it is as simple as locking a gate or crating their pets when I am away.

About: Growing up on a farm, compassion for animals and taking extra step for their care was instilled in me from a very young age. I have years of experience of animal care from dogs to horses. I have two of my own who enjoy their life in our 60 acre farm with ample room to run a play. I am a full time horse trainer and live on the same farm. With being a business owner my hours are incredibly flexible giving me availability for walks during the day as well as check ins through out the day or at night as well. Working from home gives me the advantage for boarding dogs to me outside with me in the barns while I work, giving them constant stimulation.
