“Shannon is an awesome pet sitter. She always kept us informed of how our cat was doing, with daily pictures too. Her love for pets clearly shows in how she conducts herself. We will absolutely ask Shannon to watch our cat again, and look forward to a long lasting relationship!”


“Carol took loving and highly responsible care of our pub. We highly recommend her, and are very grateful for all of the great pictures and her constant communication and attention to detail.”


“Ceinwein did a great job and was available with short notice. Very reliable and experienced with dealing with an elderly dog and giving medication. Will definitely use her services again!”


“Alexandra is accommodating and reliable. I love how aware she was of my newish 4YO shelter dog needs: potty break, interactive toys and ending with snuggles on the couch. With her updates and pictures I know my pup enjoyed her visit. Highly recommend 😊”


About: Life long animal lover I've taken care of many different kinds of pets! I had a frog growing up, fish, cats, dogs, and I've helped pet sit numerous times for a friend for his goat, chickens, turtle, geese, turkeys, ducks, and dogs (puppies, adult dogs and a senior dog with medications who needed extra tlc). I also work here and there at a local horse farm feeding and cleaning stalls as well as turning 45+ horses out to pasture. I'm used to handling strong pulling animals (I like to think being able to handle an antsy 1200+ lb animal prepares me for most anything haha), and my own strong pulling dog so I'm well versed to handling eager dogs on walks. I've been able to administer medications to senior dogs, my own dog needed 5 different medicines for a few weeks during heartworm treatment and my cat currently is transitioning to a prescription urinary diet so I know a few tricks to getting medicine to them as well as doling out special meals. I'm currently switching to working 2 part time jobs 7 days a week to only working 1 of those jobs maybe 2-3 days a week so I'm looking to fill my time with taking care of your furry best friends and probably working more at the horse farm too. My schedule for work is made at least a month in advance and I don't work weekends since I work for a dental office so I have some free time to do this now. Looking to walk your dog, drop in on your cats/dogs while you're away and maybe open to short overnight stays in your home if I can arrange for my own doggie to be taken care of because he gets really lonely and upset if I'm not home at night, otherwise I'd have it on my profile that I was available for that too. I will follow your every instruction and request for taking care of your pet in your home, I can crate you dog and handle letting them out, making sure they don't get off leash or out of your fenced in yard and make sure your cat doesn't slip out the doorway when I come in. I have some sneaky pets myself sometimes and I feel I've become a master at outsmarting even the sneakiest pet. I'll make sure your pets have plenty of fresh water, the right amount of food, nothing is left out for them to get into or chew up, and cleaned litterboxes! I believe in treating your pet like my own and providing the utmost care and respect for both them and your home.

About: How I can be your pets next favorite friend is my strong background in working with dogs, especially when it comes to basic training like sit, stay, lay down, etc. to even teaching some fun, playful tricks! I focus on making every visit engaging and positive to help reinforce good behavior while keeping your dog happy and active. While dogs are my specialty, I’m always happy to care for cats too with the same level of love, patience, and attention. Taking care of animals is a big part of my everyday life. I’ve got a dog of my own, so things like walks, training, and playtime are already part of my routine. I genuinely love being around animals, and I’m hoping to turn that passion into a full-time career one day. Pet sitting, or even just being around animals gives me a chance to do what I enjoy while gaining more experience with different personalities and needs. I treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m happy to care for your pet in my home, where there’s plenty of room to play and relax. I have both a front and back yard for outdoor time, and while they aren’t fenced, I always use heavy-duty tethers and stay close by to keep things safe. Inside, there’s lots of cozy space and available crate room if your pet is used to having their own spot. Your pet will also have the chance to hang out with my own small, friendly dog if they enjoy some company! I make sure every pet feels at home, gets lots of attention, and stays on their usual routine as much as possible. When caring for your pet at your home, I’ll always follow your instructions and any special routines to make sure your pet feels comfortable and at ease. I’m happy to stick to their usual schedule and habits so they experience as little disruption as possible. Plus, I bring extra pet supplies with me whether it’s toys, bowls, or anything else needed to ensure your pet has everything they need while you’re away.

About: Aside from my 3 personal pets, I have raised 4 Seeing Eye dogs and pet sat for over a dozen families. I have experience in dog first aid, potty training, and reactive dogs. Socialization is important and I have the knowledge on how to do so safely for each individual dog. All breeds of dogs are welcome. I work from home and am available 24/7. I love being able to take the dogs on either long walks or a quick potty break. I have a fenced in yard and a crate available for any size dog. I am aware of dog safe foods and carry Benadryl and hydrogen peroxide for emergencies.

“Thank you, Jason, for being Dash’s buddy while we were away. It was fun to see the daily photos / videos. He loves attention and I’m glad he has a new friend we can rely on for future.”


“Emily was great taking care of our pup overnight. She treated our house like her own, and most importantly our pup like her own. She was also punctual and responsive. She's also cared for our barn cats, checking in and making sure they had food and water and some affection!”


“Tyler is such a wonderful person, he's very patient and kind towards the dogs! Rescues can surprise you with new reactions, Tyler showed compassion and love and eventually the problem child learned to trust him. I will recommend Tyler to anyone who is looking for that extra help! Thank you!”


About: I have taken care of all my families pets since I was young. This has included dogs, cats, chickens, turtles, and guinea pigs. I have large animal experience as I am an Animal Science major at Delaware Valley University. I am currently available anytime Sunday-Tuesday and any time before 6pm on Wednesday. I have a car and a local park I enjoy walking if you’d prefer your furry friend to go on long walks! I will have more availability after August once I complete my internship. I have reliable transportation and a flexible schedule to accommodate your pets needs. I have a friendly Shih Tzu X Bichon Frise mix who would love to hang with your dog on walks if allowed!


“Helen did an awesome job walking my dog while we were away for the weekend. She was prompt and sent me a Rover report card with pictures after each visit! My dog was able to be home and was happy while we were away! I would definitely Helen again!!”


“Stephanie is great with our animals. She is timely, a great communicator and very flexible when our plans change last minute. We are incredibly grateful to have met her!”



“Do not hesitate to book! Don is one of the most amazing and genuine humans I have ever met in my entire life! Specific however to caring for my dogs, Don took notes on care instructions for the pups, he was on time and careful. Our dogs are escape artists and flight risks, but Don was aware and made sure there was no escape! We were sent photos of the pups also during his check in. Really I can’t recommend him enough. We certainly will be using him again!”


About: Your pet’s new best friend and spoiler when you’re not around. With a degree in Animal Science and over 30 years of experience in everything from paws to claws (and even scales and feathers!), I’ve worked as a veterinary technician, an animal behaviorist (yes, I speak fluent dog AND cat), and I’ve even run my own pet care company for years providing daily walks, home visits and even house sitting. Whether your dog thinks they’re a couch potato or your cat is a secret ninja, I’m here to make sure they’re pampered, safe, and entertained. From horses to hedgehogs, I’ve got you covered – and their best interests are always my top priority. Your pets will be in the hands of an experienced professional who’s equally passionate about their care and keeping them spoiled while you're away. Looking forward to meeting your fur, feathered, or scaly family members soon! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to book a complimentary meet & greet session. I am currently working as a full-time teacher, but am very accommodating and flexible to stay overnight, do morning and afternoon visits to see your pets are safe and happy. On the weekends I can be there around the clock, but during the week I am away for work. Unfortunately, I don't offer sitting in my home. Landlord's rules, not mine. But I am happy to take care of your pets in their own environment by staying at yours, which research shows is less stressful and traumatic for your pet.

About: Hi! I’m a college student who simply loves dogs and would love the opportunity to meet yours and build a connection! :) I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life and have a deep love for dogs. My family currently has 3 dogs, and I’ve played a big role in training and taking care of them. I’m well equip working with dogs of any size, our biggest boy is a Bernese mountain dog/Saint Bernard mix (~200lbs) while the smallest is my baby boy who’s a Pomeranian/poodle mix (~15lbs). I can work with multiple dogs as long as they’re friendly with one another and I can also work with more stubborn dogs one on one. I’m comfortable with both younger and older dogs as well, as I have much experience with both. I have experience from my own home, to volunteering at pet rescues, to daily walks from customers and pet sitting over night for friends, family and customers alike. I am confident in my ability to provide more than substantial care for your pets, I am passionate about the health and well being of animals and I will ensure to show that with my work. Please let me know of any questions or concerns, I’m more than happy to answer! Thank you so much for reading and for your consideration. I’m looking forward to meeting new pups! :) I’m currently a college student with extra time in between my classes. My overall availability is pretty open for the summer, I have no other obligations than a part time job for now. I’m a very cautious person who will always be looking out for your pet’s wants needs. I will ALWAYS respect the way you train your pets and how you would like them cared for. I understand training varies per person and pet and I will always respect the way you personally train your pets. Communication goes a long way with me, I will do whatever you need for your dogs. :)
