About: For all my life I have been an avid animal lover and have had a variety of beloved pets. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, turtles, etc. and have been a pet sitter for many family members and friends. I treat all animals as I would my own with lots of love, cuddles, exercise and attention. Days spent with our family will include as many walks as your pet needs, tons of outdoor play time, comfortable sleeping arrangements and any other special needs your pet may have. I am extremely accommodating and comfortable with special diets and administering medication. I hope you allow me the opportunity to spend time with your fur family and look forward to hearing from you! I’m currently a stay at home mom to 2 school aged children and would be able to provide your pets with lots of personalized care. They will get all the love and attention they need! I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room to run and explore. I have two friendly dogs of my own, but can also keep our dogs separated if need be.

This was the first time my dogs stayed with a non family member so I was a littler nervous to leave them. Enrica took EXCELLENT care of my two Yorkies! She sent me updates and photos the entire time I was away which I absolutely loved. My dogs had so much fun with Enrica that the one had no interest in coming home, he just sat on her couch and looked at me. There was a nice fenced in yard to explore and it was clear they were spoiled. I would definitely send my dogs to stay with Enrica again! Thank you for taking such good care of my fur babies!

Shishir and his family took great care of Teddy just like we do at home. Even though our pickup was delayed until 2:00 AM, Shishir was very accommodating. Teddy was well fed, comfortable, and happy during his stay. The warm welcome from the kids helped Teddy settle in quickly, especially since he has some anxiety issues. Teddy also got along very well with their pet, it felt more like a fun play date for him. Overall, we are very happy with the care and attention Teddy received and would highly recommend Shishir and his family.

About: I am a lifelong animal lover with a deep passion for their care and well-being. Growing up in a home full of pets – from bunnies and dogs to cats and aquatic animals – I’ve always felt a strong connection to all creatures. My commitment to animals goes beyond simply loving them; I believe in being a voice for those who cannot speak for themselves. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of rescuing and caring for many dogs, especially senior pups, and it’s been an incredibly rewarding experience. Providing a safe, loving environment for an animal during their later years is a gift that every pet deserves, and I take great pride in offering that. With experience caring for a variety of dog breeds, sizes, and ages, I currently share my home with two small dogs and a cat – all of whom are friendly and welcoming to other animals. I’ve also had the joy of fostering several senior rescues over the years, creating a warm, loving atmosphere where every pet feels at home. No matter your pet’s needs, they’ll receive the utmost care, love, and attention from me. I look forward to meeting and caring for your beloved companion! I am a full-time pet mom, and caring for my pets is at the heart of my daily routine. As a recent graduate from Jefferson University with a degree in Interior Architecture and Design, I work full-time, but I’m fortunate to be remote most days. On a typical work-from-home day, I’m at my desk with one of my dogs either lounging in my lap or resting by my feet, while my cat comes and goes to check in on us. We take frequent potty breaks throughout the day, and I love rewarding them with occasional treats for being such good girls! On the days I work in the office, I usually get home between 4:30 and 5 PM, so I’m able to spend quality time with my pets after work. Weekends are always fully available for pet care, and I make sure to dedicate plenty of time to play, walks, and cuddles. I prioritize a loving and structured routine for my pets, and I’ll bring that same level of care and attention to your pets. Whether I’m working from home or out of the office, your pet will be treated as part of my family, receiving all the attention, love, and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home or your home, safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. I ensure a secure environment by closely monitoring the pets, keeping them in a safe, pet-friendly space, and always following any specific instructions provided by the pet owner. At my home, I have a comfortable and clean space for pets to relax, with plenty of room for play and exploration and also a fenced in yard. My own pets are well-socialized, and I carefully introduce new animals to make sure everyone feels at ease. I make sure to always supervise interactions and ensure that pets have a peaceful, stress-free experience. In your home, I take the time to follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, maintaining consistency with feeding, exercise, and playtime. I also make sure to follow any additional rules or preferences you may have, whether it’s keeping your pet away from certain areas or offering specific treats. Above all, I strive to build a bond with your pet based on trust and love, providing them with the care and attention they need while you're away. You can rest assured that your pet will receive the same level of attention, compassion, and safety that I give to my own animals.

About: We are Yvette & Raymond, a husband and wife team who have a Shetland sheepdog named Zoey. We will provide a home-away-from home for your dog so that you can relax. We know that choosing a pet sitter can be stressful so we want to give you peace of mind while you’re away. With over 10 years of pet care experience, we are knowledgeable about the day to day needs of your furry friend. We have a 0.5 acre fenced in yard with plenty of space for your dog to run around. Dogs will be supervised at all times while outside, as safety is our top priority. We will treat your dog as part of our family. Zoey is the most comfortable with smaller dogs. We have a 2 year old son, so your dog must be friendly with kids. Raymond works from home and is available throughout the day to let the dogs out for play and exercise. Yvette has a flexible work schedule and can also provide walks and cuddles for your dog. All dogs are required to be up to date on all routine vaccinations, and flea and tick prevention. Morning drop off any time after 8am, evening pick up by 8pm. We are flexible during the day time for drop off/pick up. We clean up after our dog every time she “does her business” so our yard is always clean. Our dog is crate trained, and she sleeps in her crate at night. Dogs will be let out 5 times per day, and provided with fresh water constantly and food per owner’s request. Along with our dog, Zoey we will love to keep your dog company while they’re here.

About: I provide compassionate and reliable care for animals of all sizes and personalities. I’m skilled in administering medications (both oral and topical), preparing custom meals, and managing crate training with patience and consistency. Whether your pet needs daily exercise, special dietary attention, or just some extra love while you’re away, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and well-cared for—just like they would at home. I currently work a full-time job during the day, but I’m available for pet sitting in the evenings and on weekends. Let me know when you need! I aim to maintain their regular routine to reduce stress and help them feel secure. I ensure they’re well-fed, exercised, and given lots of affection and companionship during each visit.

Avery was amazing! Our dog, Maddie, really struggles with anxiety so we were all worried about being away from her for a longer than usual vacation. Avery allowed us to come visit for an introduction and took the time to allow Maddie to warm up to her. During our vacation, Avery sent beautiful pictures and shared daily activities, which put our minds at ease. She took wonderful care of our girl. We will definitely have Maddie stay with her again.

I am available especially on Saturdays. When I'm spending time with your furbabies, it never feels like work. I care for my pets by making sure they have plenty of water and food.

I'm a teacher, so I have a flexible schedule in the summers and can work with you to make sure your pets are well cared for, walked, played with, cuddled, and most importantly, loved. We have a small fenced in back yard for any families looking for a low stress doggy play date in my home. Whether your pet needs a daily visit, a walk, or doggy daycare in my home, I’m here to help! I also offer pet sitting and playtime check-ins. I can’t wait to meet your beloved pets and give them all the love and attention they deserve. Hope to hear from you soon! I am a second grade teacher so I am available most week nights and weekends! In the summer, I am available 7 days a week for all your pets needs. I am able to watch small dogs in my home. For those larger pups, I am able travel to your home to take care of your animals. It is my job to respect each home I am in and treat all animals like they are my own!

This was our first time using Lorraine and Rover. We couldn't have found a better person to watch our senior pooch. From our first meeting, we felt our girl was in a safe healthy environment and Lorraine was a caring, reliable sitter. Over the 2 week stay, Lorraine sent updates and pictures showing a contended, happy pooch. We highly recommend Lorraine. A+
