“Excellent! Richard has a good way with dogs. He was able to get my dog out for his mid day walks, even traveling a ways. Highly recommend! Communication is great.”
“Eliot was super helpful. She replied within minutes of my emails and seemed to have a seamless visit with my dog. Very grateful for her help :)”
“Excellent care! Kenedi put in the time to build trust with all four animals. She is a pleasure to work with.”
“We used Michelle for dog walking services while vacationing in Bethel and would HIGHLY recommend her! Excellent communication throughout her visit and she sent some great pictures of our puppy having a great time on his walk!”
“Recently Aleisha did dog walking, check ins for over a 6 week period. She did house sitting for us over a five day trip and found her to be extremely responsible and responsive to all of our two dogs needs. One of our dogs has extreme separation anxiety and is very timid and has difficulty trusting new people. Aleisha came for dog walks a few weeks before our trip and gained Sadie's' trust over that period. While we were away, Sadie accepted Aleisha wholeheartedly. Upon our return, the dogs were excited but very calm and at ease – a real departure from other vacation experiences. Aleisha also spent several nights at our home house sitting. Again we found her to be a true pro and very reliable and respectful. We would have no problem using her again and would recommend her services to anyone who would ask. As a matter of fact, we will be using Aleisha for occasional walks to keep in touch with Sadie and keep their bonds intact. Just such a pleasure to have someone as reliable and trustworthy for both us and our pets.”
“Great communication and very reliable!!”
“Stacey is great! We have two dogs, and one of them is super anxious and barks alot when meeting strangers. Stacey went the extra mile to meet our anxious pup before the first scheduled visit. She is super detail oriented and considerate and i highly recommend working with her!”
About: Iv been raising newborn kittens and fish my entire life. I grew up with big dogs too! Past co-workers would often say I have a funny personality and a calm demeanor. My attention to detail is my strongest skill. I have done volunteer work for camp sunshine, the animal refugees, and we run a youth group called Gaming for Christ. Im an artsy person; im in college for horticulture and I hope to work as an agricultural specialist. Veterinary assistant experience from York County Community College. I have five years of customer service experience. Looking for long-term work with friendly people who will make a list of specific details (if needed) for your pets. I take a great time making sure your pets are happy and comfortable! Completely open to any time or date that your furry friend needs me! Holidays and special occasions included! Im going to school online so I can always be available. I am very knowledgeable in Pet CPR. Fast reaction skills and attention to detail. Very capable on keeping environment clean and safe for any pet.
About: I know dogs need exercise, discipline, and affection. I know it can be challenging to find the right pet care that is trustworthy and reliable. I’ll do my best to give your pet the care they need! I am a massage therapist for part of the week and I homeschool my children when I’m not working. My schedule is somewhat flexible and I have extra time to fill here and there with pet care. I will feed, walk, or give your animals attention based on clients request and animals requirements. Whether it’s In the yard, taking them for a walk or just sitting petting them, I’ll give them what they need.
About: Hii!! I’m a patient, caring sitter with 3 years of experience of caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and ages. I’m skilled at giving medications, calming anxious pets, and provided the attention your furry baby needs. I’m happy to send frequent updates to keep you at ease, treating your pet with all the love and care they deserve. I am currently looking for some time to spend with pets when I am not working. I have a passion to be with animals and it brightens my day to help someone and spend time with a cute furry pet. I love to be active and create an environment that the pets can thrive and be loved. I have free time throughout the week to tend to their needs and get them out of the house or play with them to get their jitters out. For dogs, I love to play with them and go for walks or runs so they can go explore. For cats, I make sure their environment is clean and give them constant snuggles and comfort.
About: My love for animals began at a very young age on my family's tropical farm. In fact, my first pet was a monkey, named Pancho. Since my formative years, I have loved and cared for a variety of animals including, dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, parakeets, hamsters and more. I have dedicated my entire life to caring for living creatures, and I am looking forward to offering exceptional care to your pet by demonstrating my superior skills. I have been known as an animal whisperer among family and friends, and I am excited to provide superb care for your furry (or scaly) family member. I am available 7 days a week from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm. Additionally, I can provide OVERNIGHT SERVICES for appropriate compensation, the same goes for distance. DISTANCE is not an issue as long it is for a couple of days, a week, two weeks or more. Please be advised DROP-IN VISIT / DOG WALKING is available within 10 miles or less away from my location. I am very reliable and at your service around the clock, including holidays. I am highly attentive to every pet's needs. Your pet will be clean, fed, loved, and cared for. I will strictly adhere to any routines or schedules your pet has established. I am detail-oriented and meticulous. I ensure you all of your pet's necessities will be fulfilled.
About: I have 28 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. As a proud parent to a cattle dog mix and a Malaysian street dog (both seniors I've raised since puppyhood), I understand the unique needs pets have at every life stage. My training experience includes basic obedience, house training, and leash training, with particular expertise in reactive dogs and high-energy breeds that need plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. I believe in positive reinforcement and meeting each pet where they are - understanding their individual personality and needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. I'm comfortable managing multiple pets, administering medications, and handling various situations that may arise. Having cared for both puppies and senior dogs, I'm experienced with the special attention older pets require. My cat experience spans many years, so I'm equally comfortable with feline friends. Whether your pet needs gentle care, structured exercise, or just someone who understands their quirks, I focus on creating a safe, loving environment where they can feel comfortable and secure while you're away. I run my own business from home which means I make my own schedule! My availability varies but I keep my calendar up to date and I am generally available during the day. I know how important it is to get your pup outside for some adventures. My two like to be outside all the time. I'm a very active person and want to give your pups a great walk or playtime so they're tired and happy.
“Amy and her family are wonderful definitely gonna be using her again super kind and super patient with not just with my fur child but with me as well”

About: I’ve worked at 2 doggy daycares in the last few years where we did boarding. I’ve also worked in a cat boarding facility and have worked at pet stores for about 5-6 years. I was trusted with cleaning up after and giving medications to pets that needed it. I’m currently working part time in Freeport so I’ll have plenty of time to take care of your pets and spend time with them and take them on walks depending on weather. I live in a wooded area with access to tie outs so your pets and I could sit outside on good days and play. I have an extra room in the house where I can easily board your pet but would require you to bring a crate if they’re crate trained depending on the size of the pet. I do have two crates available that I could use if you’re unable to bring their crate. I have 2 cats in the household along with my fiance so they would have to be cat and man friendly.
About: Experience with both senior cats/dogs and young cats and dogs. Currently own a senior dog (medium), but I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I currently work as a vet assistant weekends, and sometimes have class during the week. Best thing to do is reach out and see when I am available! I appreciate information about your animals routine (wether they are crated at night, times they usually go out, high enery, low energy, feeding schedule, and other things that will allow me to give the most thorough care I can) so I can properly care for them. Also please give me a heads up about food or toy aggression before hand (it doesn't necessarily mean I'll deny service I just want to be warned so I can be extra cautious)
“Melissa was great! She walked our two 70lb pit bulls Skye and Blue 4 days in a row. She was great communicating the times she was going to walk them and showing up on time. She sent pictures each walk with the map and distance of the walks. We would definitely hire Melissa again to walk Skye and Blue. Highly recommended!, Thank you Melissa!”
About: I grew up with a 5lb yorkie who didn't need much work (very well behaved, mannered). When I finally got a dog as an adult, he was all sorts of crazy. Separation anxiety, counter surfer, the works, but with lots of training, he's gotten a lot better. I love working on the training I have learned with him with other dogs too. My friend has a reactive 75lb mix who has gotten so much better on walks! My dog comes with me everywhere, so he gets let out at least 4x a day with walks as well. Doing training whenever possible to keep sharp. I supervise them constantly, any play with dogs are always supervised and stopped if they are getting too worked up. On walks I focus on letting them sniff mixed with training, I don't let off leash dogs or leashed dogs greet (my dog gets too excited, so we try to focus on being calm).
About: I live on a 26 acre farm, with all sorts of animals, I have grown up with them and have learned how to love and care for them all. I am a part time dog groomer so I am always surrounded one way or another! My availability to care for your animals is quite flexible, I work close to home and can work around my schedule to accommodate you and your animals routine. My home is a trust worthy environment for at home stays. I am currently working on a fenced in area but for now we have an open field to space to run with supervision.
About: I've been in contact with dogs as long as I've been walking and talking. My parents always had a pack of 4 running around the house and my brothers and I were frequently helping out with feeding, walking, etc. I used to spend a lot of my weekends with my mom’s poodle, trimming his unruly coat! I also have owned rats, fish and cats, and am comfortable caring for them, as well as birds. Just let me know if you have a smaller critter that needs some care! I have experience with farm animals such as horses and chickens, and am happy to watch goats, cows, you name it!! I work a remote job from home as a Peer Support Specialist, so while dog sitting, I can remain in your home all day to watch over your pets! I clicker train my dog Artemis and have mini training sessions everyday with her. I'm more than happy to include your dog if you let me know what you'd like to work on. I also have experience with reactive dogs, as my late mastiff mix came into my care with an extreme case of stranger reactivity that I managed. So, if your pup is timid or shy, I will for sure still take them on and give them the best experience catering to their specific fears. I know owning a reactive dog can be isolating and stressful. Let me take some of that stress away by being understanding of your pups and their needs! I’m more than happy to arrange meet and greets to discuss fido’s specific needs and let them get used to my presence. Understanding and listening is important in managing reactivity, and I’m more than happy to be that person!

Sebastian G.
“Sebastian has watched our dog, cat and turtle on more than one occasion. Our dog has separation issues so we require Sebastian to stay in our home for multiple nights so she is with someone. Our dog loves him and excitedly greets him when he arrives. Sebastian regularly sends updates, pictures included, so we're able to enjoy our time away without any worries for our animals. He is a neat, trustworthy and very punctual person as well. I would highly recommend Sebastian for any animal care needs.”
Savanna R.
“Recently, I had to go on a trip out of town. It was a sudden, stressful and emotionally exhausting trip that I didn’t have a choice but to go on. It would have been worse had I not had someone truly responsible and caring to watch over my Kiki. Luckily, Savanna exists. She’s kind, helpful, caring, on the ball with her work, and absolutely the best I could hope for when it comes to caring for my precious Kiki. I highly recommend her as a sitter for your own precious loved ones. She’ll do the job right.”
