Chelsea sends updates everyday with a bunch of photos. I’m so happy we found her!”

About: I spent my youth training to be a vet and fostering dogs. I learned a lot at vet school, namely that I couldn't ever deliver the final act of compassion. So, I turned my attention to my true passion - caring for dogs! I have been dog sitting for over 15 years and I love it. Every new dog that I meet reminds me how much I love dogs. I am flexible to the needs of every dog I care for and will make their experience with me as similar to their home life as possible. I have two dogs of my own, but they LOVE meeting new dogs to play with. If your dog is not as keen to new friendships, I can separate them all with ease. I have only one hard line, I need to meet you and your dog before the stay. I have learned that it is the best way to ensure your dog's comfort in their stay. I did not always adhere to this and I have seen some very stressed out fur babies. I want your fur pups happy and healthy as much as you do! Thank you for your consideration. I work from home so, I will be with your dogs all day. If we have any grocery trips or daycare drop offs, they will be crated for those brief periods. We keep our dog-less activities to a minimum during pet stays. We have no fence and our dogs run off-leash. With your dogs, I will walk them leashed because dogs (like children) test boundaries. We also go to creeks and hikes very often, and your dogs will join us leashed (if you approve).
About: Hello! My name is Mary Beth and I live in Palmerton, PA with my husband Adam and our two sons, age 10 and 13. I have had a love of dogs since I was a child. I grew up with a Shih Tzu while my husband grew up with a Greyhound. We got married and found our first furry child, Opie, a Boston Terrier who has since passed away. Currently, we have a 2 year old lab/shepherd mix named River. He is dog friendly and loves to play. He looks forward to our daily 3 mile walk. We would love to care for your furry friend while you are away. Our home is now your pets home. We have a large yard that is not fenced in to play in. If your dog loves fetch, fetch we will play. If your dog loves walks, walks it is! We are here to love and care for your dog like they are our own. If you would like, I can send you frequent updates and pictures while your pup enjoys his/her vacation! We are here to makes this as relaxed and stress free as possible! Let us love your dog! My husband and I work full time so weekdays are not the best for us. There is a chance we can make it work. We are available starting Friday afternoon and all day on the weekends to spend the whole day with your pup! We have a friendly dog, RIver who would love to keep your dog company. Our yard is not fenced in, but we have a long line to keep your furry friend safe. If you normally crate your dog, no problem. Bring your crate and will set up their safe area for them. Dogs are fed separately. Positive reinforcement used Any questions, please ask! We are here to help! If we are available to watch your pet, we make sure they are under supervision all of the time. Keeping your pup comfortable and happy is a priority. Dogs are played with and walked through out the day. Let us know your dogs favorite activity and we will make sure that happens. They are well loved and made to feel part of our family.
“James was a great fit for watching our golden retriever in his home. He gave us updates and pictures. He was friendly and polite throughout the whole process! Would use James again for next trip!”
About: I’ve always had pets around growing up, such as Great Danes, mastiffs, and birds. I have 3 years of experience working with dementia patients and a degree in health science. In the past, I’ve volunteered at forgotten felines. I have worked at a pet store as well. One of my most rewarding experiences on Rover was with a repeat client whose two energetic pups I cared for several times over a few months. I’m now ready to open up my calendar more consistently and connect with new families who need a reliable, friendly sitter they can count on! I am free most of the week. I am available to watch your pets weekdays and weekends at the moment. I can stay with your pets for most of the time. I will always give your pet attention and plenty of play time and love, along with some outside time and/or walks. I would love to make new consistent connections!
