“Allie provides excellent care and attention to our cat during her visits. She provides expert documentation via the report cards, which gives me much peace of mind. I book with Allie time after time for while we are away. I know my very particular (11 year old) Siamese is in expert hands.”



“Lacey was great! She took the time to meet in advance. She also arrived at the agreed upon time and took good care of our dogs. Her photos and updates were appreciated. Will book again!”


“Karen was amazing! This was our first experience with Rover, and we will definitely book with her again. She took such great care of our 2 kitties - when we got home I swear they looked at us like "Where's that nice lady?" Her detailed Rover cards & pictures really helped us feel comfortable with the Rover experience. Highly recommend her!”


“Very responsive and awesome with our dog, Thunder! Highly recommend!!!”


“Agnes is very attentive to details and makes sure my pups are well taken care of. She sends photos to reassure us our fur babies are doing well.”

“We recently used Clarissa for the first time, and we are very happy with the experience! Our dog was well cared for, and it was clear Clarissa genuinely loves animals. Communication was excellent, and we received regular updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dog seemed happy and relaxed when we returned, which speaks volumes about the quality of care provided. We highly recommend Clarissa and will definitely be contacting her in the future!”


“Gretchen was absolutely wonderful looking after my 13 year old dog-ger! My little girl is used to my mom watching her but this time that couldn't happen, so I contacted Gretchen. My little dog is set in her ways at 13.5 years old so I was a little hesitant at first. I was amazed to see how well her and Gretchen bonded and got along! She did such a great job, even gave my doggy her new medication 2x a day. We will be sure to contact her again to watch our little girl! So grateful 😊”


“Deanna is dependable, kind, considerate, and communicative. She went above and beyond when watching my cat for 9 days. I came home to a very calm cat, thanks in large part to Deanna spending time with her. She also worked with me to adjust when my flight was delayed. If you are looking for a pet sitter of any kind, I highly recommend you book Deanna.”


“Kristi is wonderful, my doxies were so much happier remaining home as our last kennel experience was traumatic for one of my boys. I already have set up a second week and will always keep her in mind. Definitely 5 star!”


“Could not be happier from working with Devyn! Our pups loved her, she followed all of our instructions perfectly, and loved the pictures and updates she sent during each visit. Will book with her again!”


“Liz was great! She made our accommodation on short notice and communicated before, during and after the visit. We will definitely ask her to stop by again!”


“Tammy was wonderful with my 2 dogs! They took to her instantly at the meet and greet and I could tell during her stay that they were comfortable and happy. She kept me updated with pictures and was great at communicating little things with me. I’m new to the area and I’m so glad I found someone I can trust. I highly recommend her!”


About: Hi! My name is Taryn and i have been working professionally in the pet care business for about 4 years. I am looking to put my knowledge and skills to use while helping the community My experience: I began in the animal industry as a team member at a boarding, training, and daycare facility. After learning more about what it takes to care properly for others animals i knew i needed more knowledge on animal health. Here is where i began working in animal clinics, i excelled quickly and worked very hard to move up to an experienced technician position. In my free time i volunteer my skills to low income housing in the Easton area, working with the programs manager I’m able to offer my services at considerably lower rates for their pets. Key Three: When working with clients and their animals i always find it important to implement my key three: safety, enjoyment, and growth. Safety- Insuring you, your pet, as well as my own safety is the most important thing during any services Enjoyment: Insuring your pet is happy and well cared for; your pet is my main priority during my time of service. Growth- Insuring your pet has room for growth within your lifestyle; implementing any owner preferences and training; insuring your animal is getting what they need. My specialities: I am very well versed in all things that come with caring for you and your fuzzy friends, there’s no pet I’ve turned away from care. That being said my experience and knowledge have brought me the certain skills to handle situations not many others can. My specialities in pet care include the following: Older Pets: As our pets grow in age they typically require more care than before, it can be really stressful to insure they are properly cared for when they are not with you. I will always take the extra time and care necessary to accommodate their needs. Medicated or health issue pets: I am well versed with giving medication and watching for various signs that come with certain health issues. This includes your pets who maybe aren’t the biggest fan of their medicine. Puppy training: Adding a new member to the family can be really exciting but it can become more work and time than most realize. When getting a dog from such a small age it becomes your responsibility to set your pet up for the best future lifestyle possible. This heavily includes proper training especially for larger breeds to insure their own safety and comfort through daily life. For training we will go through and set up a program that best fits your pets personality, your desired commands and behaviors, as well as finding the best ways to implement training within your daily routine. All training will require a beginning consultation with pet and owner present. Small services: I offer a variety of animal services such as nail trims, ear cleanings, bathing, sanitary grooming, Matt grooming (de-matting), and most other small services. During these services i can be accompanied by my boyfriend to assist in handling your pet to insure everyone’s safety. I supply all the necessary equipment for these services, for bathing you would need to supply your own shampoos due to different allergies. For bathing you will also need an area for bathing as i only do house calls. No matter how big or small, energetic or calm, observant or oblivious every pet is different and should be treated according to their own needs. I work with ALL breeds. I provide my services to dogs, cats, and small animals (hamsters, guinea pigs, bunnies). Currently I’m in school part time and have a very flexible schedule when it comes to fitting in bookings. I am beginning the process of taking my pet care knowledge to the next level with offering my services and trying to start up a small business doing what i love working with you and your pets. Caring for your pet is heavily based on their individualized needs, communication with you as the owner is a very important part in making sure your pets needs are met. It is important i am not only there to provide the best service possible but to provide a loving, exciting, and safe environment I will take the time with you to insure i am the right fit for your pet and their various needs.

“Very responsive! Harley took great care of Shelby during the drop-in!”


“She made three visits a day to our house for our dog and cat. They loved her, and she did everything perfectly including giving our dog plenty of walks and giving her her medicine. We will definitely be asking her to come watch our pets again in the future!”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats my whole life! I enjoy walking dogs and or cats. I will make sure your pet gets as much as exercise as possible.

About: I've been taking care animals my entire life from puppies to seniors. I've owned 10+ pets and am the dog sitter of my family. I have doggy stroller for smaller puppers that get tired from our walks. I am retired and have all the time in the world to spend time with your precious babies. I'm never out of the house for more then an hour doing errand and have plenty of time for daily walks. I have a small fenced in yard. I also have two friendly cats to keep your doggies company and plenty of toys to keep them entertained. At bedtime I have them sleep in the same room with me if they prefer.

“Ilka was a great sitter. She at first asked me if my cat needed anything that she should look out for and she also send me pictures of her playing with my cat. She kept me posted with what activities she was doing with my cat. Ilka is extremely nice and caring and loves to take care of any pet that comes her way.”


20. Charlene G.
“Charlene has watched my miniature dachshund, Ned, every time we needed a sitter. She has watched him for longer amounts of time and just overnight. She is super attentive with him, taking him for walks (even in the stroller when his little legs get tired), clips his nails, and makes sure he knows he's loved with some special treats. She even deals with his tendency to have more accidents when we're away and has taken care of him on short notice. I would recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their fur baby.”
