“I can’t say enough good things about Marlies stay. Tons of communication and pictures. Lots of great buddies to play with. She was so well taken care of. It is wonderful not to have to worry when we are away. We are repeat customers and will book for future vacations. I can’t thank you enough !”
“Mike was so nice to work with. We were a bit nervous leaving our pup for so long, but Mike lived up to everything he promised about making Indy feel comfortable as soon as possible. He provided daily updates through pictures and videos and was easy to communicate with. We will definitely recommend working with Mike and hope to use him again!”
“Tracy was amazing. We left our new 8 week old puppy with her and Tracy kept us updated with how she was doing as well as sent us pictures. We felt so comfortable leaving our puppy with Tracy. She was great at communicating and we have nothing but good things to say about our first time experience with Rover. Unfortunately we won’t be in Allentown again (our daughter graduated this weekend) but we highly recommend Tracy to anyone looking for a responsible and loving pet sitter. Thank you Tracy!!”

“We were in the Lehighton area for 3 days. I dropped Lola off with Olivia the first day. Olivia was very responsive to texts, flexible, friendly and kind with us and our doggie. I thought she was so nice that I ended-up asking if she could watch Lola for the other two days we were in the area. Lola seemed to have had a great time, and was eager to go back into Oliva's home. Lola seemed to have had as good a time as we did on our vacation. I would definitely use Olivia again.”

“We have two dogs, one who has a lot of energy and anxiety. Rainy and Perry watched both for over a week and sent us daily updates with pictures of activities they all did including daily walks, fetch, treat time, etc. We’ve never seen our dogs handle separation from us this well and can only wonder if our dogs had a better time on vacation then we did! We will definitely have them stay here anytime we go away and highly recommend them for fellow pet owners.”
About: I know how stressful it can be to leave your fur baby with someone new. That’s why I go the extra mile to build trust and create a calm, caring experience for both you and your dog. Whether it’s a quick walk, a day visit, or overnight boarding, you can count on me to give them the attention and love they deserve. Available on weekends for now, will soon be opening up a doggy daycare and it’ll be full time. Reach out to me for more information In your home, I will follow all the instructions necessary to have a successful day with your pup. I try to also do some training while taking care of the pups to keep them mentally stimulated as well!
“Karter took care of our pup Casey overnight. He and his family are such warm, pet friendly people. I’d recommend Karter for dog sitting. One of my other dogs is currently staying with him, while we’re away for the week. We will use him from now on, when we need someone to watch our fur babies! 🐾🐶🐾”
“Gabriella was great! She stayed in communication with us throughout the week and opened her home up to my dogs Waffles and Roxy. Waffles had such a good time she didn’t want to leave! We picked up both dogs happy and exhausted (in a good way) from their vacation with Gabriella (and Crue). I would highly recommend Gabriella to anyone looking for a place to board their dogs and will definitely reach out again when Roxy and Waffles need a place to stay for a few days!”
