“Matt is very reliable and good with my dogs!! Matt has even gone the extra mile when I had asked him last minute to let my contractor in when I wasn't able to leave work! Glad to have found Matt when I moved to this area!”

“Ariana was great with my dog and made sure she got some exercise during the day while I was at work. Ariana always left detailed notes on the walk / visit.”

About: My name is Eleanor. In the last year we recently lost our own senior dogs who were 17, 16 and 15. We fostered and subsequently adopted a corgi puppy who we nursed through a PDA heart surgery. He is a happy, healthy pup and LOVES being with other dogs. I am also the mom of five children who are 13, 12, 9 and 5 year old twins. I have provided pet care services for many years but started back up after the addition of our twins :) My husband works from home which allows me to come help you with your furry friend! I am on the board of a senior dog rescue called Senior Dog Haven and Hospice and ran it for 10+ years until I recently passed on the reins. We rescue dogs aged 7 and up that have found themselves homeless later in life. I love animals, especially elderly ones, and have dedicated my life to their care. I have fostered almost 100 senior dogs in the last 10 years and have a ton of experience with special needs dogs. I would love to come love on your dog and spoil them anytime you need me! We require your furry friend to be kid and dog friendly as they will get lots of love from our pack of children and our puppy, Gus Gus! I am a stay at home mom with a husband that works from home. Our schedule is extremely flexible and someone is almost always home. I have a one acre fenced in yard that has a small dog and large dog fenced in area. I love animals and will always take the very best care of them! We often host doggy day care days to tire out pups! We take caring for your furry loved ones seriously, and carry our own insurance coverage for your added peace of mind!

“Nicole is really amazing. She went out of her way to come help me on short notice even though it turned out I was out of her normal range. She was really sweet about it and still came out to help me out in a pinch. She was amazing with my dog, took very good care of him, and was super helpful across the board. You can tell she really truly cares about her profession and I cannot recommend her enough. She does this because she loves it and you can really see that shine through. I really wish Nicole was closer as she would be by new go-to for dog care needs. Please don't hesitate to reach out to her, you will have a great experience!”

About: Dependable dog sitter. Love all types of dogs. Our dog is part of the family and yours will be too! Lexi is our 5 year old Labradoodle and she very friendly and loves to play with other dogs! My kids are grown so I have more time on my hands. We have never had to put Lexi in a kennel thanks to family and friends and want to help make sure other dogs can stay at home too! Looking to make dogs feel safe and happy is my goal. I love to take dogs on long walks and play ball with them. We have a large yard and lots of dog toys! Have helped dogs with invisible fence training and learning not to pull when on walks.

“We needed a dog walker on short notice. Isabella was available when we needed her and reliable walking our 2 dogs in the darker evening hours. We recommend Isabella!”

About: As a lifelong animal person, I’ve provided dependable care for many dogs of friends and family over the past several years. My experience includes walking, feeding, administering lots of love, and opening my home for safe and comfortable stays. I work part-time Monday through Thursday, so I can provide care in the mornings and evenings, with a few hours away mid-day for work. I’m fully available Friday through Sunday for all-day care and walks. I have a fenced-in backyard and a pool for dogs who love to swim. Your pup will also have a built-in playmate with my dog who is very friendly. Plus, I’m right next to walking trails that are perfect for daily walks.

“Dante was amazing! Very personable and friendly. Always on time. Great communication, too. Our dogs loved him and I could tell he genuinely enjoyed walking them. We will absolutely use his services again and I HIGHLY recommend him if you’re looking for someone trustworthy to care for your furry friends!”

About: I've been around dogs my entire life! I adopted my childhood dog when I was about 8 years old. I have experience working with pets of all ages and can administer medication, including injections. I don't have a formal job and since this is my summer break from university, I'll have plenty of time to care for your furry friends! I can walk pets, take them outside for bathroom breaks frequently, play with them indoors or outdoors, give them medication if necessary, and feed them! I have experience in fulfilling almost any need a pet has.

About: I have owned and cared for dogs for my entire life which has given me many skills that I now share with other dog owners. I am very comfortable with walks, playtime, and routines for dogs of all ages and personalities. I love exercising and going on long walks, so I can accommodate for any walking needs. I will be sure to give your dog the attention they need while keeping owners updated with pictures so you know that your dog is having a safe and fun time! I am a college student home for the summer, so I am available all day during the week to care for and/or walk your pup! As a lifelong dog owner, I will be sure to treat your dog and your space with the same respect and care that I would my own.

“Janelle is very friendly, patient, and helpful! My dog is usually nervous around people she doesnt know but she warmed right up to her immediately and enjoyed her walks. Communication was great and the overall experience was pleasant. I look forward to booking with Janelle again in the future(:”

About: Hi! I am a Pre-Vet major at PSU and I also work at an animal shelter, so they will always be in safe hands. I also have 2 kittens and 2 dogs of my own so I understand wanting someone responsible and caring around when you can’t be! I am very flexible with hours, whether it is a last minute stop, or caring for them for awhile. I am home from college so I have a lot of free time! Skills: •veterinary experience •senior animal experience •young animal experience •administering medication •cpr certified I am currently a student, so I am unavailable Mondays-Thursdays 6pm-9:30pm. But, I am very flexible whenever I am not in class to make time to drop by! I am not able to bring pets into my home, since I do have two cats. But, I would love to get to know your animal in a space they feel comfortable; whether that is in their home, on a walk, at the park, etc!

About: Welcome to Aaron’s Boarding, a 4 bedroom ranch house on an acre of land that includes a private fenced in yard for lots of activities and play. We are pleased to announce that we now offer dog walking and hourly yard rental through SniffSpot, Melanie’s Play yard. My team and I have taken care of over 100 foster and boarder dogs including the SCPA and training service dogs. We’ve cared for moms with litters of 10 puppies, young adult, adult, senior, special needs including diabetes and all types of physical disabilities. We have been boarding dogs since April 2020. We are able to take dogs up to 65 pounds and any dogs over 65 pounds will be considered if trained well, Rover just doesn’t have a setting to say that. Most of our clients choose us because we offer private boarding for their dog only. However, our business has grown, and we now accept a maximum of 3 dogs. The dogs can either come from the same home or they are friends or we sometimes negotiate a cross board through a meet and greet. We have a highly desirable environment due to not having any dogs, cats, or small children. We provide bowls and crates. Bring dog beds, food, treats, bones and toys. We do not provide those. We are a team of 3 with 24 hour service. IMPORTANT!!! We only board dogs. Dogs must be crate trained. We only accept dogs that sleep in a crate at night. No exceptions. We only take dogs that are microchipped and spayed/neutered. All new dogs are required to have a meet and greet before being accepted for boarding. Any potential cross boarding is approved through a meet and greet between families. We look forward to keeping your furry friends safe while you are away. We only take puppies older than 16 weeks and they must be house trained, crate trained, don’t jump or bite and sleep through the night. Don’t forget to use my promo code if this is your first time using Rover to save $20 on your first booking https://www.rover.com/sit/aaronp13595 Aaron's boarding is a full time family run business with a total of 3 trained adults. We are 3 trained adults with years of experience. Our home is safe for dogs, they have full run of the house and are walked on a leash on our property as well as in the neighborhood. We are happy to take car rides, and they would get plenty of snuggles and playtime. I have loved dogs my whole life and enjoy looking after them and their different personalities, I look forward to meeting with you and your dogs. Please Note: We are unable to board medium to high shedding dogs such as German Shepherds, Huskies, Akitas and similar breed. If they are a mixed breed please contact me for additional information.

“So attentive to my dog. Sent pictures of him playing as requested.”

About: I grew up having pets since I was born, including dogs, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs and others. My daughters and I have taken care of our neighbors and friends dogs, and we have experience interacting with cats from my brothers and friends. We have a cat named Pumpkin and a guinea pig named Cozy, but my daughters are longing for any dog-sitting especially, so we have plenty of space, love and affection to spare, if needed. I am a teacher with my summers off. My daughters are in camps periodically, but we are largely staying local throughout the rest of the summer, and I have a number of house projects that will keep me based at home for most days. I have a pet-friendly townhouse community that I live in. Safe, slow-moving cars, dog-walking areas with doggie bag stations, coupled with open grassy areas, and conveniently located near several close-by parks and even a dog park 10 minutes way. Other dogs are leashed in the community. If needed, your dog can be kept in our finished basement, with plenty of space to move around. In your home, if you prefer to have the dog walked nearby and/or caged at night, that will not be a problem.

“Thank you for taking care of our Maddie. Margaret was kind enough to meet our girl before she came to walk and care for her. I loved the pictures and information received. My pup has a lot of separation anxiety and we were glad to have Margaret here to take care of her.”

About: I grew up with a big Labradoodle and have lots of experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Friends and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and even stay overnight with their pups. I love spending time with every dog and getting to know what makes each one special! I work part-time and have a very flexible schedule! I am available for sitting, drop-in visits, and walks, and I’m happy to adjust to your pet’s routine! I follow each pet’s routine, including feedings, walks, and any special care. I keep everything clean, give pets plenty of attention and exercise, and send regular updates so you always know how they’re doing!

About: I have had and been around dogs since before I can remember! I grew up with 3 little Jack Russells and now have an adorable Newfypoo. I have always loved training, playing with, and taking care of my pets, as well as looking after other pets for friends, neighbors, or family. I would love to meet your pets and promise they will be in great care! I am looking to care for some pets this summer and into the upcoming year! I am flexible with times so please reach out if interested! I have a large yard that your pets can run around in, as well as a large home to play in. My dog is a 7-year-old Newfypoo named Theo to keep your pets company. He is a loving, playful, gentle giant! I also have 3 sisters who all absolutely adore animals. Safe to say your pets will be in great hands and have lots of attention!

About: Hi! I’m Maya, a lifelong animal lover with a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and two cats of my own. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I’ll treat yours with the same love and care I give my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, you can count on your pet being in great hands! I work remotely Monday through Friday, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I can stop by throughout the day for visits, walks, and check-ins, or, if preferred, I’m happy to work from your home so your pets have extra company and care while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I stick closely to their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of attention. I always make sure they have fresh water, a clean space, and lots of love while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
