About: I've grown up with a dog (or two) in my family my entire life, ranging from German Shepherds, Labs, Great Danes, and Pit Bulls. Although, my favorite breed is the Pit Bull! My partner and I recently rescued a 10 year old pitbull/Boston terrier mix named Stumpy who is the absolute best! I've also been involved with a fostering rescue and was able to help find homes for a 2 year old pitbull and 1.5 year old Bernese Mountain dog. I'm an active individual and I love getting my exercise with a furry friend! I do work full time, but my schedule allows for free time in varies parts of the day during the week to help care for your best friend I will carefully follow your instructions and guidance for how you best want your dog cared for while you're gone and treat them like my own.
About: Grew up with 2 Labs (Auggie + Nate), 2 Carolina Dogs (Silo + Pepper), and 20+ cats at different times. Experience boarding high energy dogs and dogs with separation anxiety! I work part time, which makes it easy for me to dedicate time for pet care regularly! Depending on location, here’s some more details on my current availability: Mon-Fri: 8am-11:15am, 4pm-7pm Sat: 8am-4:45pm Sun: 8am-9:15am, 2pm-7pm When you book with me, your pet is my top priority. I don’t offer pet care in my own home for your animal’s comfort, since our family has several cats and dogs here (that’s farm life for ya!)
About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years now, and I have experience with various breeds. I will provise individualized care tailored to each dog’s needs, routines, and preferences. As for communication, I will provide updates with photos/video and detailed reports to keep owners informed and reassured. I am currently working part-time, therefore I have a ton of free time throughout the week/weekends. I am usually available to house-sit any night during the week/weekend as well. While carinf for your pet in your home, I will make sure to keep your pet in their familiar environment, reducing stress and anxiety. I will make sure to stick to the pet’s regular schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime to maintain their routine. Also, I will regularly update you with photos, videos, and messages about your pet’s activities and well-being.
About: For the past 5 years I have been dog sitting and I love it! I started sitting privately and then worked at a doggy daycare. I have been doing Rover for a little over a year and I enjoy every minute of it. I have experience with many different breeds. I have worked closely with large dogs and small dogs, old and young dogs. I make sure to send lots of pictures while you’re away and prioritize play time, make sure to always get walks in, and most importantly have lots of cuddles while you’re gone! I am currently a college student, so I am free all of summer. I am free all day everyday! I make it a priority to be there for your pets multiple times throughout the day. I know how important it is to provide play time, snuggles, and treats for when they know you’re away. I understand dogs body language and love to see their personalities. I always make sure to follow your normal schedule as best I can, making sure your pups are always comfortable and get lots of love while you’re away.
About: I have been a dog lover basically from birth. If I were a bumper sticker, I'd be the one that says "Tell your dog I said hi!" I grew up with mini dachshund rescues, currently volunteer with, and have fostered for a local rescue in Washington State. Our last two fosters were completely shut-down and on the euth-list in New Mexico prior to coming to us. Due to their resilience (and a little help from us), they are now with their furever families! I have experience with leash, dog, and people reactivity. With enough information, I am happy to work with the choosiest and most fearful pups. I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to trust someone else with your pup, so please let me know your concerns and feel free to sound as neurotic as you like! After a five-year break from Rover to focus on fostering and other ventures, I am back home in PA through mid-February 2025 before we move abroad and I would love to spend time with your four- (or three-)legged family member! I am currently working part-time, so am available for drop-in visits and regular walks. My schedule is relatively flexible, so don't hesitate to reach out with your request. Understanding your dog's specific needs, likes, and triggers is essential to establishing a positive relationship. I have worked with extremely fearful dogs and will meet your pup where he/she is.
About: Over 20 years of experience with dog and other animals. I grew up on a farm so I have been exposed to all types of animals. I truly love dogs of all sizes. I am comfortable walking any dog, going to dog parks or relaxing at your home with your dog. I worked at a veterinary hospital so I am able to give medication if that is needed. I currently have a very high energy dog named Willow that is 2 years old & 4 cats. We enjoy hiking, dog parks and anything that can get her dirty! If there is a mud puddle she will find it! Please reach out to me with any questions you might have! I look forward to getting to know your dogs or cats! I’m currently a stay at home mom to two wonderful girls. My schedule is pretty flexible I so have to work around their school drop off/pick up. Depending on whether they are welcome to come along with me to do pet care I would have some restrictions. I have a fenced in yard at my home. My dog was crate trained as a puppy. She is now 8 years old and no longer uses a crate. Since we have cats and younger children any dog brought into our home would have to be familiar and trusted with other dogs, cats and children.

Kyra Y.
“Kyra is an amazing pet caretaker! We are thankful to have her stay with our dog when we are away. It is difficult to leave a pet behind when traveling or away for the day but knowing that Kyra is there to hang with Bear, giving him lots of love, care and exercise makes leaving him behind easier. From feeding to walking, playing and even care activities (bathing, giving medicines...) there is nothing Kyra won't do for our fur baby. She even takes and sends us pictures while we are gone! She is trustworthy, conscientious, caring and all around remarkable! We highly recommend Kyra to provide care and love for your pet when you can't be there.”
Steph G.
“Steph is a ball of energy with a heart of gold. Whatever your pets needs are she will follow through 110% and surely put their needs above any of her own. Steph, being a dog mom herself understands that different dogs have different needs and will make sure to personalize your pups experience to them! Our one dog has some behavioral issues after being in a shelter for 3 years and Stephs confidence never wavered, she understood that our dog needed her space and respected that. Steph is enthusiastic and fun, your dog will certainty not be lonely while you are away!”
Michelle B.
“Michelle is a wonderful lady, she loves all animals. She was born and raised on a farm so she has cared for every type of pet you can think of. Michelle has had Dogs, cats, rabbits, sheep, goats, horses, chickens, rabbits, the list is long. Michelle has cared for my animals and they received the best care from her. Michelle is responsible and also a good communicator I recommend her for any pet sitting, pet care.”
