“Angelita was great!!! I needed a last minute sitter for my dogs, and she was more than happy to help. She texted me multiple updates throughout the day and even sent us home with a bag of treats! It is clear she is very attentive to the dogs and really cares a lot. I will definitely be booking with her again.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently have a nine month old Australian Shepherd. Growing up, I’ve been trusted with various breeds of dogs from my family and friends and always receive high praise. I enjoy running with my dog and will make sure your dog leaves happy and fulfilled. I work from home and often have extra time to devote to my pets. I’d love to help you out with a walk or caring for your pup. I live within walking distance of a dog park and walking trail and can ensure that your dog will be entertained. Milo, our Aussie, is very friendly and would love to play with your pup!
About: Growing up, we always had pets, mostly dogs (large and small breeds), but the occasional cat as well! I love all animals as if they were my own! I currently have 2 cats. Both cats are spayed females (mother and daughter). They are unexpected pets, but we love them and couldn’t see ourselves without them! The mom cat (Kitty) was a feral pregnant cat who we took in and cared for and after 2 litters we were able to get her spayed (she is a mostly outside cat) and we kept one from her little and had her spayed as well although she is indoor only. I adopted a German shepherd pup in 2009, named Roxy, and she was the best! She has since past, but she was absolutely great with my children and very easily trained! In 2015 I adopted a chocolate lab, named Tommy, and he was wonderful as well and got along great with my shepherd! Of course he was a chewer and chewed anything and everything he could! I am a stay at home mom so my schedule pretty flexible. My schools age kids currently end school at 330-4pm and begin at 9am so I’d say I’m available between 9:30-2:30pm or after 4pm on Mondays and Fridays. My kids love animals as well! I do not have a fenced in yard, so would walk your pet on a leash, but they would have free range in my home if it was an overnight stay. In a clients home I would be sure to follow whatever the pet care request is.
About: Have had dogs my entire life. Currently the father of a wonderful Golden Retriever(Lola) and rambunctious orange cat(Gus). I am used to being pulled on walks and giving lots of rubs. Comfortable doing short or long walks, trails or paved roads. I’ve lived in Lancaster almost my entire life, so I know a lot of trails and paths across the county My schedule is pretty open right now for the foreseeable future. Just need 24 hour notice to accommodate for my family. I normally wake up early to take my dog for a walk and again in the evening once the pavement has cooled off I live in Lancaster city, I have a back yard that is fenced on the sides but open in the back. Due to that, I am pretty familiar with all the local parks and hiking trails. Animal lover and pacifist.

Diane J.
“Diane loves animals. Even animals which are not ours will come to her first. Our grown children have pets. They all run to “grandma” when they see her coming. She plays with them and talks to them. We have babysat cats and dogs of nieces, nephews, and other family members. Prior to our marriage, Diane had a cat and a dog. The dog had passed away prior to our marriage. She treated both pets as family members. You could see the love she had for Snuggles (the cat). The name fit the relationship. We went to the Humane League and adopted a dog named Tasha. Tasha fit right in with our family. Tasha was a sick dog when we adopted her. The vet said do not get too attached because she isn’t going to make it. Well, Diane nursed her 24 hours a day and gave the medicine the vet provided. We took her back to the vet and he could not believe how healthy Tasha was. He said it was a miracle. After both pets passed, we received a phone call from our daughter. At her work the found two young kittens in a dumpster. She knew who to call. Diane took them in and made them part of our family. Iddy and Buddy provided us a lot of love. When moved to Hawaii they went with us. They loved the eight years in Hawaii as much as we did. We came back to Pennsylvania 6 years ago. Unfortunately Iddy passed 2 years ago and Buddy passed last year. She cared for them until it was time to let them pass. Diane had one lady who would hire Diane to take care of her 2 dogs and an outside cat who lived in a barn. She had to put out food for the barn cat and make sure it was back in the barn at night. The dogs were outside on a leash for part of the day. She fed them twice a day inside and had to give the one dog medicine in the morning. As you have read, Diane is an animal lover. She should have been a veterinarian. We have been without a pet. Now that we have the time to travel, since we retired, she would like to provide her love to other family’s pets. Diane is the perfect person for a family looking to take care of their pet(s). They will not find a better person to love or care for their pet(s).”
