Doggy Day Care in Sankertown

“Lydia is AMAZING. She’s soooo sweet to us and our pups. I can tell she truly enjoys what she does and my dogs have never came back from daycare so happy and exhausted as they do with her. She is everything we hoped for in a sitter. There is not a doubt in my mind that she treats our dogs the same as she treats her own. I love the updates she gives us during the day and how she lets us know how everything went. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for dog care, I wish there were more people in the world like Lydia.”

“We are so happy we found Mariah to care for our girls Josie and Finn. It’s always been hard to leave them with anyone but we totally trust Mariah ( and her family) with them. She genuinely cares for your fur babies as if they are her own and we really appreciate that! Thanks again Mariah!”

“Watson had a great experience with Mike and his crew. I was looking for a sitter to keep watch of Watson for an afternoon while I explored the mountain bike trails at Raystown lake. Mike lives super super close to the trailhead so that was very convenient. He took great care of Watson giving him multiple walks and kept me informed with regular updates. Will definitely be reaching out to Mike next time I am back to the area.”

“Deanna was great! She was able to take Mishka within 2 days notice and met with us first to make sure Mishka felt comfortable in her home! If we visit PA again with family we will use her and I will let any friends in my hometown know how great she was!”

“Michelle and her husband were friendly, easy to communicate with, and provided our pups with an enjoyable day. They are high-energy dogs, but must have been pretty worn out from all the playtime they got since they went right to sleep in the car when we picked them up.”

We live in a 2 story home, pets will be on the main floor in our home. Our stairs have gates for the bottom and top. Our animals are welcome on the couch but if this is a no no for you we will respect that. Our dog is crate trained and sleeps in her crate at night. Our cats have free range of our home but spend most of the time in the basement.

About: I have cared for many different types of animals since I was a child. Dogs, cats, bunnies, rats and hamsters. Fostered and lived with many dogs. I currently have dogs and cats. They are the joy of my life especially since the kids (and grand dogs) have grown and moved. Couldn’t imagine life without them. I have two dogs and 2 cats to keep the fur guests company. Lots of play time in the fenced back yard. And snuggles on the couch.

“This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little hesitant dropping off my baby boy…however Caitlin made me feel right at ease! She sent pictures and updates throughout the day, and I could tell Biscuit was having a great day! If I am ever needing a sitter in the Johnstown area again, I would definitely contact Caitlin again!!!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life. Thankfully, growing up we had multiple dogs and cats which allowed me to experience the love a pet can bring. I couldn’t imagine a life without having pets. With experience pet sitting before, I know that each home comes with different routines and scenarios. I’ve had to train plenty of puppies, given medicine to elderly pets, and always enjoy building a relationship with a furry friend! I currently work full-time from home as a Content Manager. I have a moderately flexible schedule if need be, but for the most part, I’m looking for some long- term options so I can build a working relationship with the pet and owner. However, whenever my schedule allows I’m always open to pick up an overnight here and there! I treat each pet that enters my home as I treat my own! Pets are family, they deserve to be treated as such! Comfort is key in keeping my pet and other pets happy in the home.

About: I have taken care of a reactive dog for 2 years and have been dog sitting since age 12. I have loved every minute of it and cannot wait for more opportunities to do so! I work from home 7am-3pm every day. My house is spacious and comfortable. Working from home every day allows me to have free time to let the special pup I luckily get to watch out into the yard to play and give them the attention they need whenever they need it. I have all the necessities for pet care at my own home such as a bissell pet vacuum for messes, dog bowls, a sand box for digging, treats… etc. I have a large yard and a deck behind the house so they can have ample outdoor time.

“I was lucky to find someone as excited as Micaela to spend the day with my dog. She communicated with me throughout the day and sent many pics!”

About: With a lifelong love for dogs and cats and a profound understanding of their needs, I bring a wealth of knowledge to every furry friend under my care. Having fostered a dog for a year, I have gained invaluable insights into rehabilitation, behavior modification, and creating a nurturing environment for dogs in transition. I also owned a dog my whole life which that has taught me to have skills like patience and empathy. Additionally, I have also pet sat cats which has allowed me to endure versatility with taking care of both cats and dogs! 1. I allocate dedicated time each day for exercise and play sessions which include walks, interactive games, and engaging in toys to keep them active, stimulated and physically fit. 2. I make sure I follow their feeding schedule provided by the pet owners by making sure they receive their meals and any medications 3. I make sure to keep the pets cleaned and well-groomed 4. I observe the pets health behavior on a daily basis 5. I value spending quality time with the pets as well! When caring for pets in my home or my client's home, I prioritize their well-being and comfort. For in-home pet care, I ensure a safe and stimulating environment where pets can feel at ease. This includes providing a cozy bedding, access to fresh water, and maintaining a clean space. I make sure I incorporate their specific needs like regular exercise, playtime, feeding schedules, and any necessary medication administration. I also try to provide one-on-one attentions to keep them happy and content.

“For anyone needing someone to care for their pet, Felicia is a great choice. She kept our 9 month old Shih Tzu for the day for us and our Bella had a fun time! So easy to work with and took great care of our pup so we could a fun day out.”

About: There wasn’t a time a golden retriever wasn’t apart of my family. Through a lifetime of love I’ve learned the secret language of our canine/feline companions. I have had experience caring for elderly dogs in their most vulnerable moments, I’ve dealt with the chaos of training two energetic puppies at once, and everything in between. My pet care experienced does not stop at dogs and cats, I have personal experience with rodents, rabbits, fish, bearded dragons you name it. I work part time so I have a pretty open schedule and lots of flexibility to best accommodate any clients needs. I am available all day Monday and Tuesday, and after 2 pm Wednesday-Sunday I believe that animals deserve the same respect and care as humans, if not more. With my services, you can expect meticulous attention to your pet’s needs, including preparing and serving meals according to their specific dietary requirements and schedules. To keep your pet stimulated and happy, I will engage them in physical activities and playtime tailored to their individual energy levels. Additionally I can perform light household tasks related to pet care, such as cleaning litter boxes and maintaining feeding areas. Basic grooming, including brushing and bathing as needed, is also part of my commitment to ensuring your pet’s well-being.
