Our meet and greet with Kaelee and first walk went so well! She and Pickle hit it off and Kaelee was so patient with our nervous little pup. She is professional and thorough and so kind. We will definitely be having her come regularly!

Kianna came for meet and greet prior to walks and my lab puppy, Lily, loved her right away. Kianna provided great updates during walks and tailored walks to our puppy and the weather. Will definitely use her again.

Julie is extremely patient with my two high strung German shepherds, and quickly won them over. I appreciate not ever needing to worry about them when Julie is taking care of them and they are always so excited when she comes to take them out for walks. Julie has been walking my space cadets for me for over a year now when I am working long hours and I can not stress enough how thankful I am for her.

About: Along with being the go-to petsitter and dog walker for my neighbors, friends, and family, I have professional pet care experience through Gochenauer Pet Resort as a kennel attendant, dog walker, and playtime supervisor. I have learned through both experience and training courses such as Dog Handler Academy. I work evenings, so morning and daytime pet care is ideal for me. The more time I spend around animals, the happier I am, so I am hoping to fill as much free time as possible with pet time. I am unable to use my home to house pets (as my own cat is uncomfortable with other animals) but I am happy to come to your house and meet your pets where they are.

Shareem is the best dog Walker we’ve ever had. She’s consistent, caring, communicative, and always showing up for the best interest of our girls. Our two pitbulls are not the easiest to walk or manage but she meets their needs and requirements with no extra hassle. I couldn’t recommend her more!

About: I've taken care of my friends cats and dogs and have done house sitting locally for a few years. I always enjoy making new furry friends. Pet sitting, along with making art is my main gig so my schedule is very flexible. I try to plan pet sitting 1-2 weeks in advance. I am very observant and will cater to your specific needs. Pets require love and attention. Give me detailed directions and I will follow them to the best of my ability.

About: Happy to help with all your animal care needs! Even shy animals seem to take to me quickly. I have house sat for entire homestead farms, caring for ducks, cows, dozens of cats and chickens. I have always felt very connected to the natural world and have a great empathy for all creatures great and small. I began training and caretaking my own dogs at age 10. I fostered for years as an adult before adopting my Hawaiian rescue dog. Friends and family have relied on me to assist with their pets a lot in the past few years. My very social and intelligent Border Collie has assisted me in training several puppies, helped to socialize shy dogs and taught dogs to swim. I work evenings and am happy to help with your pets during the day. I may be available day of - go ahead and send a request! I carry all clearances required for school teaching ( I also work in education) so I am a very safe choice :) I am very good at following your detailed instructions on how to best care for your pet.

About: Hi! I'm a teacher in the Lancaster area looking to spend my summers doing something I genuinely enjoy—caring for animals. I have extensive experience with dog walking, pet sitting, and animal care, and I've worked with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. One of my most rewarding experiences has been serving as a volunteer puppy raiser for service dogs throughout college and even before then. This role taught me the importance of consistency, patience, training, and providing a safe, loving environment for dogs as they develop important skills. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I prioritize safety, communication, and consistency. I'll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you're away, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. I'm patient with shy dogs, energetic pups, and senior pets who may need a slower pace or extra care. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, secure, and well cared for while giving owners confidence that their furry family member is in good hands. I'm a teacher looking for a fun and rewarding way to spend my summers, and pet care is a perfect fit. During the summer months, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Whether it's morning walks, midday check-ins, or afternoon adventures, I can accommodate a variety of needs and routines. I enjoy staying active and being outdoors, so spending time with dogs is something I genuinely look forward to. You can count on me to provide dependable care, lots of attention, and regular updates while your pet is with me. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel secure and comfortable in their familiar environment. I'll follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special needs. I believe in building trust with both pets and their owners through patience, consistency, and communication. I'll provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away. Whether we're going for a walk, playing, or simply spending time together, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while always prioritizing their safety.

About: I have a wide variety of pet walking and sitting experience. From my years taking care of pets, I have learned many important skills. Such as how to administer oral medication’s and interact with high energy dogs. I have also become very good at gaining cats trust and allowing them to tell me what they need from me. Ensuring that the pets I’m looking after feel safe and reassured in my presence until their family comes home is my biggest priority, even if it means spending a little extra time with them. I’m currently taking online classes over the summer which will restrict my night walking services, but my daytime hours are usually free. I am also available most weekends and mornings. Unfortunately I am not allowed to keep pets in my home. That being said I take great pride in making sure that I leave my client’s home cleaner than when I arrived. This can range from cleaning up, spilled water from water dishes, cleaning up any curbs that a pet might have left on the floor, or cleaning up any accidents that a pet might’ve accidentally had.

About: Hello! My name is Rachel, I am a graduate student living in Lancaster and love to take care of your pets in my free time! I grew up with a big family and many animals including goats, horses, chickens, ducks, and a few dogs running around. I have always loved animals, especially horses and dogs. I also worked at Karen’s K9 Kare in Malvern for around a year. During my time there I gained experience dealing with large groups of dogs as well as bathing, training, and getting picky dogs to eat. The most essential skill I gained at this position is really how to manage stressed out animals, dealing with strangers can be difficult for many pets but I pride myself in being able to recognize what they need from me to make them as comfortable as possible.

About: Grew up with cats and dogs, but I love all animals! Lots of people call me an animal whisperer because their animals respond so positive to me. I am working a part time job as I save up, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I love forming a relationship with your pets I care for them as if they are my own animals. Every animal has their own unique personality, but they all want to be loved
