About: I have had dogs ever since I was a little girl. Growing up, we had Pitbulls and Dobermans in the house. I was responsible for taking care of the family pets, as my parents wanted all of us to be involved. My neighbors had dogs that I would take while they were away. This would consist of walking, feeding, and cleaning up after their dog. I used to walk dogs in my old neighborhood, and I have taken care of my friends' pets on several occasions when they went away. My husband and I adopted two little kitties and it was the best thing we have ever done! They bring so much joy to our life and we love them dearly I am a third grade teacher, so I am looking for post-work pet care or weekends when I am free. My evenings would open around 4:00, where my weekends are usually open all the time! I can easily crate a dog as needed, clean out a litter box for cats, provide food for either type of pet. Or simply, give company to a pet that has been home by themselves for awhile!
“Shelby was great with her quick response for a last minute booking. She also asked great questions to be sure that she understood all of the specifics for Angel. She has great communication and sent some nice pictures too. I am very happy with how she cared for my senior dog, Angel, and I will definitely be booking her again. Thanks, Shelby for great care and service!”
About: I can’t have a dog of my own yet, so I love giving other pups all the care and attention they deserve. I’m reliable and detail-oriented, so I’ll carefully follow every routine, and instruction. Whether your dog loves long walks or cuddling on the couch, I’ll make sure they are well cared for. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I live and work in downtown Harrisburg, and my hybrid position gives me the ability to work from home on different days each week. When I’m in the office, I’m still nearby and able to stop in for walks, potty breaks, feeding, check-ins, or extra playtime. While I’m based downtown, I also have reliable transportation and am happy to travel to homes outside the city as well. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine to help them feel cared for and stress-free while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone caring for both your pet and your home, and I take that responsibility seriously. While I’m not currently offering care in my own home, I’m happy to care for pets in their familiar environment where they feel most comfortable and secure. I’ll carefully follow all care instructions, routines, feeding schedules, and house rules to make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent. I’m respectful and clean, and I’ll always treat your home with care and professionalism.
“Kathleen was amazing with my two terriers! I had surgery and needed help getting them exercised during the first few days of my recovery. She was prompt and professional and thoroughly enjoyed her time walking my little ones, which made it that much more fun for them! She was very patient and gave them her undivided attention. I highly recommend Kathleen and will be booking with her again soon.”
About: I’ve had animals around me my whole life. I’m always so excited to make a new furry friend! Walks, potty breaks, baths, play time, feedings, and cuddles: I’m happy to do it all :) Young or old, I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I’m currently a college student doing most of my classes online, meaning I have plenty of time for your furry friends! I am available most weekends and typically all day Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, as well as Tuesdays and Thursdays after 1pm. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I will follow your routine closely, keep things tidy, and give plenty of love and attention. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities!
About: I have always owned dogs. I Have had cats and if I could I’d own a farm. I am just a lover of furry friends. I am a stay-at-home wife and mother of 1 with two furry pals of my own. I have free time while my husband and daughter are working and at school. My two chihuahuas are highly spoiled. They are both crate and house trained and trained to ring the bells to ask to be let out. Their favorite activities include couch cuddles and outside playtime. To me all animals are innocent and equal. I haven’t met a friendly dog/car/goat/sheep/cow/horse that I didn’t love.
About: I’ve been around animals since I was little. From indoor pets to farms. I’m definitely an animal person. I have raised animals, and I have watched animals take their last breath. They deserve the world. I work a full time job but I don’t mind taking care of your animals before and after work. Honestly, I love animals so much that whatever needs to be done, I will do. I have two cats and I treat them like my children. They are very much so velcro cats, but I love it that way. Getting trust with animals is very important.
“Is definitely a life saver, my family got the pup but couldn’t get up so early in the morning to walk him, was willing to do 5 am walk for 2 of my weekly days and 6 for the rest best thing ever!”
“Molly is the best!! Right from the start it’s obvious she’s a great human and a dog whisperer. Excellent and professional meet and greet…my pups instantly adored her. My older pup, Aba, was experiencing acute back pain during the meet and greet and it got worse after. Molly gave me awesome advice as she has worked with animals as a vet tech for years. She even let me last minute borrow her Assisi Loop (for pain) which helped so much. This was all out of the dog sitting window I had her booked for which was so kind. While we were out of town she gave excellent and honest updates, picked up the yard, lots of pics, LONG walks for the pups and even discarded some boxes we had sitting around that needed recycling. Above and beyond my pet sitting expectations…as a Rover sitter myself…so impressed!! I highly recommend Molly.”
About: I've taken care of all sorts of dogs ranging in size and need! I've given pills and insulin injections to some of the dogs I've watched and am very comfortable with those things. I've also watched chickens, turtles, and cats! I am a stay at home mom to 2 wonderful little boys! So I am readily available for your pet! We cannot wait to play and meet your pet! I have a fenced in yard. I have a small 8 lb dog that is unamused by other dogs and will keep his distance. Your dog can be crated if you'd prefer. I also have a toddler who knows to be gentle with our dog and will be with yours too.
About: Grew up with dogs in the family. A collie and a husky. Currently have a beagle that is 6 years old. Had her since she was 9 weeks old. We walk every day. Care is a high consideration on very cold days as well as hot and humid summer afternoons. I don't work during the summer months. Have time to care for a pet for someone or a family who needs help so they can plan a vacation or time away. Or for those who have a demanding time schedule. I only have one pet, dog, in the house. A fenced in yard and a wireframe crate that is 2 feet x 3 feet and about 2 - 2.5 feet high.
About: Hello! My name is Lisandra and I am excited to be able to have the opportunity to provide love and care to your fur babies. Since my teenage years I have been taking care of dogs as I grew up in a household with a Shih Tzu and Chihuahua. Once I moved on my own I decided to continue that care by becoming a dog mom myself. Over the last 15 years I have been a dog mom to 2 wonderful dogs! At the moment, I have my Boston Terrier lover boy Scooby who is a spoiled happy boy. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured that they’ll be treated as if they were my own. I can provide regular updates on your pet’s while also ensuring they get the love, care, play, exercise, and the cuddles they need! I’m currently working from home, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your fur babies! I’m available for boarding 7 days a week and can provide doggy day care from 8am-6pm on those 7 days. To provide the upmost care for your pets, I can ensure they have a consistent routine that includes potty breaks every 2 hours, regular exercise with a 15 min daily walk 2 times a day (once in the afternoon and once in the evening), access to fresh water and food, a safe environment, plenty of attention and play time as well as a in home play mate! I also will maintain open communication with you regarding any concerns or changes in your pets behavior.
“Elaina is the best care taker of animals we have ever had! She goes above and beyond to take care of your animals while you’re away! Highly recommend you book with this provider, as we will definitely be using her services again!”
About: I’ve been caring for various sized dogs and cats since I was a small child. From feeding, to going on walks or just providing them company while you’re away I’m bound to be your pets new best friend! I’m available most week days but please try to give me a few hours heads up if you’ll be needing me to avoid schedule conflicts! Each animal requires their own specific care. Please let me know what services you are looking for PRIOR to booking to ensure everything goes smoothly for everyone
About: I will probably remember your dogs name before I remember yours. I love animals and I have 2 German Shepherd Labradoodles who are high energy and extra clingy. I know how to take care of dogs and understand their needs for exercise. Currently I am an educator for High School students looking for summer work. I want to be able to be flexible to still spend time with my puppers and take care of yours. My dogs are crate trained and can be left without destroying things. They are exercised daily as well as keeping them up on their medications and probiptics. My one dog has issues with his hips so we get that checked frequently with the Veterinarians.
“Jada has been absolute wonderful. She walks BB every day, she is very reliable and always keeps me updated. I know BB is in good hands while I’m at work. I would highly recommend Jada to anyone!”

Andrey is awesome! I have 2 greyhounds which are a bit high maintenance because they are greyhounds and he took such great care of them. Took them to parks and long walks. They were always happy when I came home. I didn't have to worry. He always uploaded tons of pics which I like. Highly recommend him for your fur babies.
Jessica did an excellent job walking my dog for a week while I recovered from surgery. She was flexible and super accommodating when I needed to modify our regular schedule for one day. Remy the dog was so excited to see her. I would recommend Jessica to anyone who needs a friendly caregiver for their dog!
