“Elizabeth took care of Clove like she was her own. She was very flexible and was able to accommodate our requests. She also replied promptly. Would rebook with her again in the future.”
“Very pleased with this boarding experience, 100% satisfied. Sowmya and her husband sent us lots of photos and videos, responded quickly whenever I had a question throughout the whole process. They took our dog for lots of walks and they have a nice property for dogs to enjoy. Highly recommend!”
“Heather and her family immediately put me at ease. I knew Brady would be in great hands! She sent the sweetest pictures of Brady. He was happy and healthy when I picked him up. Couldn’t ask for more. Thank you!”
“We live a good distance from family, and typically make the drive home before weekend adventures or getaways to make sure our eight year old Irish Wolfhound mix is in great hands while we’re away. After a move brought our home base closer to central PA, we were a little unsure about finding a dog sitter closer to us, but after meeting Allison and her sidekick, Sadie, I couldn't be more grateful! From our very first meet and greet, Allison put us - and our guy - at such ease and Obie loved having a playmate. You can tell almost immediately how much she genuinely cares for the dogs staying with her. Her space is very dog friendly, and as an added bonus, her "house rules" are the same as our house, which makes things so easy. She was so kind to send lots of pictures during our guy's stay. Seeing how happy he was in each picture made it clear we’ve found a gem in Allison. Thank you, Allison! Obie can't wait to see you and Sadie again soon.”
“Pam & Michael were excellent hosts of my babies! My 2 girls loved their stay with them and Pam & Michael provided updates to me on them daily while I was gone. I'd highly recommend them for anyone to leave their dogs with!”
“Another wonderful stay with De’Andra and Robert. We feel lucky to have found them to care for our dog Bentley when we have to be away. They are a true blessing; our mind is always at peace when Bentley is with them with all the updates, pictures and videos they send. They really make a point to love your pet as if it was their own.”
“Kathy was AMAZING! Khai felt right at home and so comfortable with her. We got daily updates, we’re so happy we found her, we felt very at ease with Kathy’s care, she was very loving and caring for Khai. Will definitely book again with her 😁”

“Very responsive and fast communicator! Friendly, accommodated a meet & greet visit in advance, and willing to let me come in their home at drop off. Our dog came home happy and healthy! I had never used Rover before, and this was a very positive experience.”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog parent with hands-on experience in both everyday care and behavior support. I’ve supervised a therapy dog program and completed training in dog behavior and obedience. I know the importance of consistency, and will follow your lead. Whether your pup needs a walk, some playtime, or gentle guidance, I bring a calm, compassionate approach rooted in both experience and a deep love for dogs. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I am a mom of two and with the exception of occassional appointments and errands I’m home 7 days a week. Making it easy for me to adapt to the needs of a visiting furry friend. I have a fence in yard and and older dog friend to keep yours company. Although he won’t be able to keep up with your pup running, he does enjoy hanging out on the couch with new friends while he watches TV. As I said before it's important to me to remain consistent with your expectations for your dog. This includes safety.
“Yvonne and Gemma were incredible with our pup. She sent tons a photos and treated Danner so well that he was sad to come home! We look forward to working with her again in the future.”
“Sarah was very nice and her dog Charlie was very good with my dog, Lester! Lester loved walking multiple times a day with them and the one-on-one attention he got while we were away. Sarah was great with daily updates and sent loads of pictures of Lester’s day. I will definitely be booking with her again for our next trip!”
“Kaitlin is such a great sitter! She was super flexible with Tank’s stay and sent pictures throughout the stay. Tank especially loved her daughter who gave Tank lots of love. Kaitlin is awesome and I will definitely be contacting her again to dogsit!”
“We are so grateful that we found Kaitlin! She treated our Frankie like he was her own. She sent tons of updates and pictures, which made being apart from him much easier. Our boy came home exhausted from how much fun he had. We couldn’t recommend her enough!”
