“Maggie had a great time at Scott’s. We felt very comfortable leaving Maggie with Scott and when we returned to pick her up we could tell that she liked him and was comfortable there. She will definitely be visiting again.”

About: I’ve been around dogs and animals in general since a young age, with my grandpa running a small farm. I’ve grown up around breeds like German Shepherds, and have always taken care of friends’ dogs while they were in vacation. I learned a lot from my fiancé, who ran a successful dog walking business in New York City Give yourself peace of mind, your dog is in safe, loving, caring hands. I’m currently working from home with a special schedule which I take advantage of as it frees up a lot of time during the day. Pet care fits into it quite easily, as I have a daily routine I follow which includes dog walks, time with the dogs outside and of course feedings (and tending medicine when needed). I have a home situated on a quiet, secluded private lot that backs up onto a river with several trails within a short walking distance. The yard is secluded, well shaded and has ample space. I take care to be active with the dogs, so I usually toss frisbees or play fetch several times a day to keep them content. I walk my dogs twice around the neighborhood. Besides home, I have a number of dog-friendly trails and parks both in East Stroudsburg and nearby where I bring the dogs for some quality time outside. This includes hiking on trails and in the mountains, bringing the dogs to rivers or lakes, I mix it up each week depending on the weather conditions. Any time I go on an outdoor adventure, I make sure I have the owner’s consent. Their dogs will always be hydrated and have a snack. I only ask that if your dog has specific dietary needs or is taking medication, that you provide me with the necessary information and schedule. I have two modes of transport for dogs, both of which offer plenty of space, safety and comfort for the dogs while en route.

“Once again Spencer was well cared for by Sukari. He is happy and exhausted from playing with her dog,Tex! It is evident she genuinely cares for her guests. We are comfortable leaving Spencer with Sukari and her family and already have our next visit scheduled. Thanks again!!”

About: I’ve grown up caring for three family dogs, giving me years of hands-on experience with daily feeding, training, grooming, and understanding different temperaments. I also worked at a dog kennel and boarding facility, where I handled large-breed dogs, assisted with group play, feeding schedules, cleaning, and monitoring behavior. In addition, I worked at PetSmart as a dog bather, gaining experience with bathing, brushing, nail trims, and safely managing dogs of all sizes. Altogether, I have strong, well-rounded experience in dog care, handling, and behavior. I also take care of my own two personal cats and for outside cats on my property. I am currently unemployed, so this would be my full-time job. So I have 24hours in a day to spend watching and taking care of any animals that may need watching. How I care for pets in my home are a lot of playtime to get all that restless energy out so a lot of park playtime a lot of walking. Treats left and right if that’s okay with the owner ofc. Just watching the fur babies for whatever they may need.
“Christine and her family made my dog feel very at home during his stay! He went on so many walks and played for hours and I know he came home happy! I would highly recommend booking with Christine😊”

About: I have had dogs practically my entire life. Mostly mix breeds, but I love being around them and taking care of them. Providing them with love, cuddles, and play time. I work from home so I have the availability to take on walks around my neighborhood, play during the day, after work dog park trips (if ok with owners of course, Nuggets loves it there) If they come over for day care, I will treat them like I treat my own dog (who is treated like a prince) and will get many loves, cuddles and play throughout the day. If I need to go over and pick up the little furry friend, I treat others homes with respect and how I would want mine to be treated
“We are so appreciative to Michele. She was sable to accommodate us at the last minute. Her home is so inviting and dog friendly. Mason, our golden doodle enjoyed his time immensely and needed to be cajoled to hop back into our car to get home! I’ve never seen that before! I think he wanted to stay longer. Mason was safe, well cared for and happy. We will certainly reach out to Michele to look after Mason the next time we are in town again!”

About: Taking care of animals is my calling! They love me and I love them. I’ve always enjoyed working with animals since a young age. I have worked in the dog grooming business training to hopefully own my own dog hotel in the near future! I also have worked at boarding facilities for dogs/cats. I have found that I truly love anything that provides a better space for animal boarding/care. I’m excited to have expanded my experience in dog sitting/walking! I will be offering grooming to the pups I dog sit/walk so feel free to ask about getting a bath/groom! Currently I work full time at a veterinary facility/grooming facility. I can provide my services so long as the dates are available on my schedule! :) Each pet would be cared for differently according to their needs. Lots of love will be given to each dog I sit/walk, if allowed a few treats and toys for good behavior, and safety for the dogs and myself will be the main priority.
“Timmy had a great time. Even though he is considered a large dog, he got to hang out with 4 dogs that were much larger than him. He was so comfortable there, he took a nap with them. Mishaela sent us a couple of pictures of everyone sitting together. Their fenced in back yard is pretty much for the dogs to have a good time in.”

“We take our pup most places, but there are times we just can't. We love the peace of mind we have when we leave him with Maria. And bonus, he has other dogs to socialize with! Highly recommend her.”
