“We really appreciate the level of care Caitlyn provides for our dogs. She's helped us out by making sure that our dogs can at minimum be let out and get dinner. Not only has she done the minimum, but she has gone above and beyond that by playing with them, providing vital information on how the dogs are feeling, giving them plenty of attention and sending us pictures while we are away from them.”
“Zania did a WONDERFUL job with our dogs, one of which is a little high energy. She went out of her way to take them on a “field trip” to run out their energy and play with other dogs. Her communication was excellent, and she even helped with some of my around-the-house tasks. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Kat was so great to work with! She was so nice and willing to work with us and our routine. Our dog was extremely comfortable with her (and loved all the scratches and pets).”
About: I grew up in Florida and I've been in Pennsylvania since 2017. I work at an accounting firm in York with my dad, and I'm a part-time fire performer. I've had dogs and other pets for as long as I can remember. I like to connect with dogs by interacting with them in a way they can understand; running with them, playing with them, teaching them, etc. I am a Registered Behavior Technician and I work in an autistic support classroom. I work in a school from 9-3. I am generally awake earlier in the mornings, so I would be able to take care of your pets in the morning before going to work, then come and check on them and hang out with them after I get off work! I love playing with dogs, whether it's with toys or with attention. While I am taking care of another person's pets, I aim to be conscious of how you want your dog to be treated and cared for.
“Chloe was great! She showed up promptly so we could put a face to the name and feel confident in our pet care. She was really flexible and was able to make time for our kitties. She communicated well which really helped relieve the pet care stress of vacation. She seems to put a lot of effort into loving animals, and it showed in our cats attitudes when we returned! They seemed like they had a good week and seemed barely phased by our absence. Thanks Chloe! Definitely will rebook.”
“Danielle stopped by daily to play with and feed our cat while we were out of town. She provided consistent care for our girl and gave us an update with photos each day. Our cat is typically very shy, but her and Danielle were playing together on her first visit! When we returned from our trip, everything was well taken care of - water bowls full, litter box scooped, and food refilled. We can't thank Danielle enough!!”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals that I have had in both personal and a professional setting. My schedule allows me to dedicate focused, unhurried time to each pet, ensuring each animal will receive the attention and care they deserve and need. In my or clients home, I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and affection for each and every one.
About: I’ve had the joy of providing around-the-clock love and attention to furry friends in their own space. I’ve cared for dogs and cats from four different families, each with their own unique personalities and routines. Growing up with animals, I’ve learned how to read their needs and earn their trust. I’m here to be their new best friend - and yes, you’ll get plenty of adorable photo updates along the way. I work from home 3 days of the week, but have flexibility to work fully remote if needed for your pet! This means that they can have someone with them every moment of the day, if that is a must. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I will follow all routines closely. This includes feeding schedules, walk times, favorite toys, or if they like to watch a specific show while napping on the couch. If I am in your home, I will keep things tidy, respect your personal privacy, and send regular photo updates so you know your pet is happy and cared for. In my homes I create a cozy, pet-friendly space. I tailor to their personality - whether they’re energetic, shy, or somewhat in between!
“We rebooked with Lexi this time for drop in visits for our cat and to refresh water for our chickens - she was on top of it! Appreciate her good care with our animals.”
About: I care for our special needs Chug (Chihuahua/Pug mix) named Briggs who has anxiety, so I’m very attuned to a pet’s body language and emotional needs. I also love our 2 year old cat and have looked after animals of all ages throughout my life—dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, hamsters, and fish—each one unique and loved. To me, pets are family, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience, care, and affection I give my own. After retiring from a 26-year career, I’m now happily focusing on my passion: pet sitting and animal care. I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. Caring for animals brings me joy, and I look forward to meeting new furry friends each week! I tailor my care to fit your pet’s unique needs—whether that means walking, playing, feeding, or simply providing comfort and companionship. I always follow your instructions closely and respectfully, and I’m happy to send regular photo updates for peace of mind. Most importantly, your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities.
