“Gabriel was great!! He was able to accommodate our two dogs very last minute (since our return flights were cancelled and we needed a new sitter) and then again he was very flexible to continue looking after our dogs when our flights were rescheduled multiple days later by the airlines.

Would definitely recommend and will be keeping his contact handy!”

Benny is a Whoodle and we do a lot of training, he recently graduated from his Canine Good Citizen Advanced class! I have been an animal lover my whole life, and having my summers off working in education allows me to spend time doing something I love! Starting June 17th my school year ends. I will be working part time Tues-Fri 10-3 ish but other than that I am free! Am happy to be per diem or on a weekly schedule. It is my goal to accommodate and match the dogs schedule. I will make sure I reach the needs of any and all dogs in my care, depending on how long their walks are, or quantities of food. I will make sure the dogs are safe and secure within my care!

“Lee was really fantastic with August. He was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and even some videos of August which I really appreciated. Highly recommend Lee if you're in the Worcester area and I will definitely be rebooting with him next time I'm in tbr stra.”
“Meli took such great care of my fur baby! From the moment I was in touch with Meli, I felt safe and excited about the opportunity to have Ollie spend the day with her and her pup Nina. She was warm and assuring, and very quick to respond to messages! When I met Meli in person to drop Ollie off, I was happy to find such a friendly and kind person in real life, too! She sent me photos and updates throughout the 6 hours that Ollie was with her for “day care” (without me even needing to ask!) and I could tell he was having fun and being taken care of so well! I would absolutely recommend Meli and would love to have Ollie stay with her again if we need a sitter in Bloomington. Thanks Meli! ?”
“My dog was in great hands with Vicky! Very easy to schedule and coordinate with, and Rosie seems to have had a great time. I would definitely trust her to take care of Rosie anytime!”
“Our pup has enjoyed spending days with Dawn and it is especially nice for us to have a place where she can comfortably interact with young children, as we don’t have that opportunity to offer her at home. Dawn also has a great fenced in backyard with lots of interesting things to smell and ways to run around and work off energy, which is great for both our pup and for us when we pick her up and know that she’s had a fun filled active day!”
“Melissa and her family took very good care of my pups when I needed last minute help. I was very grateful for their kindness and quick communication throughout the day. Will definitely use again when needed. Thank you!!”
“Normally, when we pick Yoda from a day care or boarding he will express his unhappiness by barking at us trying to tell us he didn’t like it there. But when we picked him up from your place he was all happy and no barks very calm, it tells us he had a good time with you. Thank you for taking good care of him.”
About: I have lot's of experience in pet care. I walked dogs, pet and house sat for many years in my 20s and after moving to Lancaster a few years ago began pet-sitting again here. My wife and I work from home, which allows us to spend all day with our beloved Havenese Geordi. We all enjoy having other dogs come to play and stay! My wife and I both work from home. My office has a back door out to our fenced in yard so I am able to let the dogs out pretty much anytime they like. I can't even count how many times a day my dog goes out back. I also like to take the dogs on a stroll around the block before and after work. As mentioned I have a fenced in yard and a Havanese who loves to have dog guests to play with and stay over. We give all the dogs lots attention and always make sure their needs are met.
“Swetha was fast to communicate with and drop off and pick up was easy. Myrtle had SO much fun with Rusty!! She came home and was toast from playing so much. Highly recommend Swetha for wonderful care of your pup!”
“Elaine was quick to respond to a fairly urgent request to watch our pup for a few hours and happy to work with our schedule. Our dog seemed happy and totally comfortable when we picked him up and we got a photo update from Elaine even though our booking was only for a couple of hours. Would absolutely book with Elaine again!”
“We were so lucky to find Jacquie! She was very flexible squeezing in a meet & greet with our dog who can be anxious around new people. She has a great, calm energy that immediately put our dog at ease. He loves playing with her 2 dogs and snuggling with her! She is responsive, professional and kind. Thank you Jacquie!”
“Delia was absolutely fantastic taking care of our nine month old puppy Oakley. We had to travel from out of state to Massachusetts for a funeral and she kept our puppy for most of the day, keeping us updated with pictures and videos along the way. Very conscientious and easy to communicate with. Highly recommended!”
“Lingwen was awesome! Very responsive. Ready right at drop off and pick up times. So sweet and careful with our little Princess that our puppy felt safe almost immediately after meeting her. Her place is beautiful, with plenty of space for our puppy to explore and play with others. She took great pictures and videos that kept us up to date on how our puppy was doing througout the stay. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend!”
“I'm always a little nervous leaving my boy Blu with new people since he can be a little shy, but I could tell he had a great time hanging out at Melissa's for the afternoon. I received updates and pics of him happily running around her yard with her dog, and making himself maybe a little too comfortable on her sofa. I would not hesitate to entrust her with his care in the future. Highly recommend.”
“Rhadika is a wonderful sitter! She took great care of Bruno and she communicated with me many times during the day with details and photos! Very much appreciated! We will use her again.”

“Stephanie is very polite, reliable and trustworthy. She worked patiently with us to help our anxious dog (and a picky eater) get comfortable with her and accommodated his quirks. She kept us regularly updated as well with photos and videos. We are very happy to have found her and a second home for our dog!”
About: I grew up taking care of dogs since high school! Friends have always called me the dog whisperer. Extremely patient with dogs and worked at a dog salon as a dog bather for 4 years. I do currently have a dog of my own, Bob, a Brussels Griffon. My partner, Dylan, and I work at home 4/5 days. We stagger our days so that someone is always home with the dogs and are never left at home alone. We both work together to make sure my dog and yours are interacting well with each other and are having a good time! We are happy to accommodate any dogs that need extra TLC during the work week from 8/8:30AM to 5:30PM. We are unable to do pick ups later than 5:30PM at this time. Your dog will be able to join us on our morning and midday walk! We only take one dog at a time to provide the highest quality care. I have an unfenced yard, but will always take your dog out leashed. Your dog will be a part of our family during the stay and is allowed on all furniture.
“Mochi had a great stay at Anastasia’s house! It was our first time ever using a doggie daycare or Rover, and we are so pleased with how the whole experience went. Anastasia took lots of pictures and was quick to reply with an update when I checked in. We definitely will be sending our pup mochi back to Anastasia’s when she needs daycare!”
About: I have always had a love and passion for animals. I have grown up with dogs, cats, chickens, even a pet turtle. Each animal brought me so much happiness and I considered my pets as family members. Growing up, I have cared for friends, neighbors, and family members pets. Animals made me who I am today! I have an open schedule as I am currently in between jobs. While on my job search, I want to spend my time around pets giving them love and care. I know the value of being a trustworthy, attentive, and reliable sitter. I have a clean spacious home, a yard, and I currently don’t own any pets of my own. Your pet will be treated like family here receiving lots of affection so they feel at home while you’re away.

“Louca worked wonders for us and our super reactive miniature dachshund. His patience, knowledge, and professional and positive attitude were a huge relief after searching for and failing to find someone to look after our dog when we were away for short periods. Louca has given us so much hope for our little puppy’s future and we look forward to working with him again! Thank you Louca !!”
“Jeffrey is amazing! He was on time, personable and professional. He was patient with my dog and now Finn runs right away to Jeffrey. Rover is lucky to have him! As are we!”
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my hands-on experience caring for pets every day. I help my mom care for our two dogs and also have three cats of my own, so I'm very familiar with the daily needs, routines, and personalities of both dogs and cats. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply giving them attention and affection, I treat every pet like they're part of the family. While I don't have professional training experience, I'm comfortable caring for pets of different ages and energy levels, including puppies who need extra patience and supervision, as well as senior pets who may require a gentler approach and more attentive care. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and nothing makes me happier than spending time with dogs and cats. My goal is to make sure every pet feels loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already help care for my family's two dogs and three cats. I'm used to feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, giving them attention, and making sure they're comfortable and happy throughout the day. Since I'm home for the summer, my schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship. I have plenty of availability throughout the week and can adjust my routine to meet the specific needs of each pet and their owner. My flexible schedule also means I can provide consistent care and give pets the attention they deserve. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, safe, and comfortable. I enjoy playing fetch, giving them lots of attention, and spending quality time snuggling and bonding with them. I often join my mom on long walks with our dogs, so I am comfortable exercising and caring for pets of different energy levels. I am responsible, patient, and knowledgeable about basic pet care, including feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, and following their daily routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make their well-being my top priority.
“Ann Marie has been wonderful with our pup. She is kind, professional, and trustworthy. I feel comfortable allowing her into our home. Her updates and photos brighten my day everytime and she is very sweet to our girl.”

“We are very happy to have found Brittany, who is very reliable, communicates very well and did a great job in tending to our dog. He took to her right away which is not always the case as he is a nervous fellow. We will be using her services again and highly recommend her.”
“Mark has been fantastic! He comes in and greets Charlie as though she is his own. He even deals with her excitement jumping and hand biting which is her way of saying “hi”. He’s been extremely patient with her as she’s been a little weird on her walks and not always the most agreeable. Mark is always very responsive and communicative. I would highly recommend Mark!”

My senior year of highschool I volunteered at a veteran dog training facility where I would help walk dogs and play with them. During my time there I also learned basic commands and trained them. I have alot of availability! I do work part time but other than that my schedule is very free and open :) I happily will move around things in my schedule to fit your schedule The area I live in I have many open fields near me and I live in a quiet neighborhood. When caring for pets without a fenced yard, I prioritize supervised outdoor time on a leash or harness to ensure safety. Indoor play, regular walks, and mental stimulation are also key for their well-being.
About: I been a pet owner my whole life. Animals are attracted to my spirituality, love, and reliability. They are in good hands. No stress 😌 My schedule has flexibility and open to make accommodations if some of the days do not fit your schedule. I am able to make arrangements.
