“Amber took great care of my baby. She sent plenty of updates and even put his coat on when it was cold. Her cute little puppers panda taught Krypto how to be a dog. She understood my anxiety and my nervousness with leaving my baby with a stranger. I will definitely be using Amber in the future.”
“Daniela was absolutely amazing. I will 100% be booking with her again. Hampton was taken care of like he was her own dog, she sent me updates, and communicated perfectly. I felt comfortable the second I met her, Hampton has a new best friend. He misses her already. Thank you Daniela!”
“Laura is always wonderful with our fur baby! This visit she helped with my daughters puppy too. They were very well taken care of and came home very happy dogs. I would recommend Laura to anyone!”
“My dog Jazzy loves Glenn! When I drop off my dog I know he is well taken care of!! Glenn takes care of his every need and I get notifications throughout the time he has Jazzy. Highly recommend!!”
“She had been amazing to my dog and met up several times. My dog adore her. She’s great taking care of my dog while I went on vacation. She really gives me peace of mind. Highly recommended. She sent me videos and pictures. Definitely will be it interesting booking with her again”
“Very caring and very professional. I knew when I met her that my dog was in good hands. He’s never been away overnight with someone else. He handled it well because it’s obvious she loves animals and knows how to take care of them. Highly recommend.”
“Sarah took amazing care of our Goldendoodle, Olympia, while we were away. This was Olympia’s first boarding experience, so we were naturally a little nervous, but Sarah made us feel at ease from the start. She communicated quickly, sent regular updates and photos, and kept us informed throughout the stay. Olympia looked happy, was eating well, and clearly had a great time playing. We also had to extend our trip unexpectedly, and Sarah was incredibly flexible and accommodating, which we truly appreciated. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Olympia was in such good hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy sitter. Thank you again, Sarah!”
“Debbie and her husband, Phil are truly the best dog sitters! I don’t ever worry when my dog, Jasper is there. She is so gracious to send a lot of pictures and videos. Her huge fenced in yard is amazing. Jasper loves to run with the other dogs. When I picked up Jasper this last time, he actually started to pull on his leash back towards Debbie’s to go back inside! Lol I give them 5 stars always, they deserve it!”
“Christy and her family are the absolute best in taking such good care of my little Jazzy. Their home is absolutely beautiful and they allow him to truly be part of their family by laying on the sofa and the bed which is what he is so used to. I can always go away and have peace of mind knowing that my dog is being loved and taken good care of by Christy and her wonderful family.”
“Adam did a great job boarding and caring for our 80lb higher energy labrador. Very communicative and sent pictures. We also requested Adam apply an allergy meds which he was great at. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Adam!”
“Again, as always, Karen and Donald did a wonderful job with my Jax. They got him eating his normal food and off all his begging for treats! Jax always comes home happy and healthy. I don’t know what I would do without Karen and Donald to board my furbaby!”
“Adriana was great! We had to book at the last minute because we were traveling through and accidentally booked a hotel that didn’t allow pets. She was very accommodating. She sent us lots of photos of our dog during his stay. He clearly felt very comfortable at her house based on the photos. She is very friendly and her own dog is so sweet. If we ever need a dogsitter when traveling through Scranton again, we will definitely use Adriana.”
“Cheyenne was a savior. She agreed to board our pet (Snowball) when we had a last minute cancellation. She was very quick to provide a response when we reached out via the Rover app to have a quick meet and greet and agreed to board snowball. Sure was very considerate and understanding our angst about staying away from our pet and regularly shared Snowball's photos. Snowball had a great time with waffle and Cheyenne's family. She took extra care to feeding snowball when snowball was missing us, took her on walks and hike, treated her with ice cream and went out of her way to give snowball a bath and made her smell really good with aromatic oils. We were very lucky to find someone as caring as Cheyenne and her family, so much so that we already planned to board Snowball with her in our upcoming trip. Thank you for taking so good care of her.”
“Jack and Joanne were absolutely wonderful to our 1 year old Weimaraner. Their property is expansive and perfect for a dog who requires a great deal of exercise. I could tell how much they love and care for animals. I highly recommend these wonderful, trustworthy people. We were updated daily with photos and videos of our boy!”
About: I have cared for pets since I was a a child. My first pet chose me when I was about 5 years old. When I stayed with my babysitter, I would play with their cat all day. The babysitter gave me Tiger because they saw how much I loved her. Ever since then I cared for dogs and cats. I walj my dogs every day weather permitting. I bathe and brush them when needed. My little guys love playdates and are sooo friendly. I am currently retired, so I can provide exceptional care. I spend lots of time in my big fenced in yard, and eager to play fetch. Lots of playtime. I have so many toys. Big fenced yard and lots of time for running around. I also have a doggy door so all the fur babies can go out and in as much as they like.
“Hailey did an amazing job with Kylo. We were worried about leaving him since he has never been to a new place with us. She did such a great job with him and sent us photos of his stay. He felt we didn't have to worry at all. We are so happy we chose Hailey to watch our family member. We recommend her to anyone who wants to feel carefree when they have to leave their pet behind.”

“Nicholas was absolutely wonderful with my cat, Willow. He sent me updates and a couple of great photos. But the real surprise for me is that this morning, Willow was sitting near her carrier. We all know that cats HATE their carriers - they bring memories of vet visits and long confusing car trips. But she seemed to be saying, "when are we going to that great place again?" On the practical side: when I picked Willow up, her litter box was emptied and spotless, all the extra food (and even a bit of litter in the bottom of the box) were returned, her dishes were also spotless, and she was as happy and friendly as ever. Very happy with this service - it is exactly what my cat and I needed!”
“First time using Rovr. Anna was amazing!!! She was available last minute after my caretaker cancelled and guided me through the process. She wrote me an update and sent lots of pictures. My usually shy Solame typically hides when she meets new people, but she greeted Anna at the door and even ate treats out of her hand before she left. Highly recommend!”
“Kim communicated, was helpful, and extraordinarily caring! I know my boys were well taken care of and we are happy to have her sit anytime! She sent us pictures and even bought in our mail! Thank you Kim!!”
“Sarah is absolutely wonderful and a lifesaver. She was able to take care of my Minks(cat) for several days after she was recently fixed. She kept me updated and sent pictures. Minks was perfectly comfortable in her home and she took excellent care of her.”
“I felt so at ease! Daniela and her daughter made sure to provide updates and pictures! They are so warm and welcoming and Midnight loves them! I will certainly be booking with Daniela again and highly recommend her services!”
“Andrew was incredible!! He watched our 2 cats while we were out of town for about a week and was very quick to respond and sent us lots of pictures. He was very accommodating to some last minute changes and was so good with our little kitties!! Will definitely be using his services again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was eight. Not only my own personal pets, but also those of friends and family members. I do not currently have any pets, but I love animals, so this is my way to interact and spend time with them! I currently attend school, but my classes are spread out and only on certain days so I have plenty of time to take your dog on a nice, long walk. I'm really good as being able to tell if an animal is comfortable in a situation or not, so after our first walk, I can find the most enjoyable route for your dog!
“Briana was an excellent in home sitter! She kept us updated every day about our cat, Lilly. She also sent photos and videos daily of her. She gave her medicines twice a day and brushed her, which she loves and gave her lots of pets and attention. She is the best sitter we've had since we moved.”
“Jill was amazing! She was very thorough with ensuring she covered all of Izzy’s routine while she was here. She communicated with me the whole time and gave me updates. I also felt very comfortable having her stay at my home. We will definitely be using Jill again to care for our kitty!!”
About: I've owned cats all my life and can't imagine life without one. I have a passion for caring for and interacting with them and own one currently myself. In the past I have volunteered with them at animal shelters and am still a regular visitor to local cat cafes and rescues today. My current fur baby is nine years old and has hyperthyroidism, a heart defect and allergies that are managed with multiple medications/supplements. Cats with disabilities and complex medical needs have so much love to give. I particularly enjoy working with them and giving them the special love and care they need. I have experience with giving oral and topical medication and navigating food and environmental allergies.
“Matthew was fantastic! He stopped by and took care of our dogs while we were were out of town for a day. He let them out, fed them, and made sure they were happy. He sent great photos and kept us updated the whole time. Super reliable and easy to work with, we’d recommend!”
“Cheyenne took such good care of my kitten Petey. She sent lots of videos and I loved seeing his little face while on vacation. He made a new friend in Beans and had the best time. I highly recommend her if you’re looking to board your pet.”

“Daniela was once again fantastic with my Oliver! I love that I found a local pet sitter who I can confidently leave my dog with and know he will have a great time and be in good hands!”

“I was worried about leaving my Bella with a sitter because I'd never done it. Christy was very sweet and assured me my baby would be fine. She allowed me to stay in her home for a few minutes to see how Bella would interact with her dogs and family. I got pictures and videos and that made me feel much better. I was very anxious but was able to enjoy the day with my husband. Thank you Christy for taking good care of my baby.”
“Sarah took good care of my Apollo and Zeus while I was away for the day. Gave me an update and picture. They came home happy and exhausted from playing all day. Will book again! Thank you!”

“Talia had a great day! Her first time with Donald and Karen along with her first time away from since I rescued her in January. She had such a good time that when I arrived she was in the chair looking at me like I have to go home already. The pictures Donald sent were great to get and it warmed my heart to see how she settled in. Will definitely book again and highly recommend.”
About: Lifelong Dog and Cat person, have always had pets and always will. I love all animals. My dog Hank was diagnosed with Glaucoma right before his 6th birthday; it was an adjustment getting used to a new routine of 3 different types of Eye-drops, every 8 hours. My friends and colleagues had often commented, "You're really good with animals." the💡idea became a recurring suggestion that I would enjoy offering temporary care to other people's Pets, similarly to how I lovingly care for any of my own animals. Often get asked why/how my dog Hank is so well behaved, mellow, and such a good dog. Is it the training? "Sure," of course. But most of it is quite simple: Hank is rarely left alone. He goes everywhere with me. He hikes about 5 miles every day. He doesn't overeat, or sit-around. He's active, gets exercise, and is socialized often with other people and pets. So when he meets a new person, it's not a first, it's his daily routine. If your work/life balance has you leaving your pet alone most days? I can help change your dog's daily routine - so when you come home from work? Your dog has had a full day of activities they enjoy, and are happy to see you (with less pent up energy) Available 7 days a week to care for your dogs or cats. Have flexibility to be able to adjust to a variety of tasks. Let's chat about what you need. Whether I'm stopping-in quickly to fill the water & food bowl, administering some mid-day medication, taking your dog outside for a brief walk, or picking up your pet at your place & taking it to their favorite park or nature center; even having your pet for a play-date at my house with our huge fenced in Yard, or doing a doggy slumber party at your home. I'm ready to keep your pet entertained, well cared for, well fed, up to date on all medications, and very well-loved while they're in my care. Relax knowing, i've checked ✔️ off that box representing the responsibility of your dog or cat, while you're working or vacationing.
“Julie is great. Extra accommodating in caring for our dogs. The property is like a doggy amusement park, especially for our two beagles. They enjoyed the stay with Julie and her family, and we have booked again for a two day stay.”
“Glenn was great! He was super flexible with pick up and drop off times, as well as last minute scheduling changes. His responses were very fast and he also provided ample pictures of my little guy during his stay.”
About: I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up there’s always been at least 1 dog and cat in our home. My fiancé and I currently have two pups of our own, including one with epilepsy, so I’m comfortable with medications, special care, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I’ve cared for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and my goal is always to become your pet’s new best friend (with plenty of treats, walks, belly rubs, and a few silly conversations along the way). I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get all the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away! I work a hybrid schedule, so on the days my calendar shows I’m available, I’m working from home and have plenty of flexibility throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, playtime, meals, and lots of attention. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I treat them like they’re my own. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable, so I try to keep their normal routine as much as possible — same feeding schedule, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications, and plenty of love and attention. In my home, pets become part of the family! I have two pups of my own, so I understand the importance of making sure everyone feels comfortable, supervised, and included. I’m happy to provide a calm environment with lots of playtime, cuddles, and attention. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping things familiar and stress-free. I follow your instructions closely, keep your pets on their usual schedule, send updates and pictures, and make sure you come home to happy, well-cared-for pets.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life. I have also assisted in helping senior dogs. I truly enjoy taking dogs for walks. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend lots of quality time with the dogs in my care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure your pup feels right at home! Available most weekdays I will take great care of all pets. I have a very large yard for exploring and the pets are welcome in my home. Most importantly I will focus on what the owners think is most important for their pet.
About: I've been professionally caring for pets for over four years through my home-based pet sitting business, Yech's Pet Haven. I am also a licensed boarding facility, giving pet parents added peace of mind that their dogs are staying in a safe and compliant environment. During that time, I've cared for dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes, including puppies, seniors, and pets with special routines or medications. I have experience safely managing multiple dogs, supervising playtime, and making sure every pet receives the individual attention they deserve. Growing up surrounded by animals, including dogs, horses, and goats, has given me a lifelong understanding of animal behavior and care. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, low-stress environment where every pet feels right at home while you're away. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. Since I run a home-based boarding facility, I am able to provide frequent attention, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and supervision throughout the day. I keep my boarding numbers small so each pet receives personalized care and plenty of one-on-one attention. My schedule is built around making sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while their family is away. I provide a safe, calm, and loving home environment where pets can relax and feel comfortable. As a licensed boarding facility, I prioritize cleanliness, safety, and responsible pet care. I carefully manage introductions, supervise interactions, and separate pets during meals, rest time, or whenever needed. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and individual preferences, so they feel right at home.
About: From mushing dogs to house sitting for neighbors/friends while caring for their pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, breeds, and ages.

Fenced in back yard. Lots of treats and toys. Plenty of dog beds and couch space. Rooms to separate if need be. Extra food bowls, leashes, collars, harnesses, & more.

About: I have taken care of animals since childhood. I have taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, fancy mice, african soft furred rats, small birds, aquatic turtles, fresh water fish, and ball pythons. I have known since childhood that I wanted to care for animals. During childhood I spent my free time volunteering at my local animal shelter. Helping clean animal pens and crates. During high school I volunteered at my local animal hospital as well as the local emergency animal hospital. As of recently I have been volunteering at a senior dog rescue. I love being able to help animals and I can’t wait to help care for your furbaby(ies). I currently am a stay at home pet parent and am looking to fill my free time with more animals. Plus I love to go hiking and always find it better to with a furry companion. My yard is unfenced but I enjoyed taking my dog on as many walks she wants. Sadly I can’t host pets at my house because my cats are wary about new dogs. But I love taking dogs on nice long walks so they can stretch their legs.

About: I've grown up around labs since my grandparents were breeders. All my aunts have had labs (usually more than one at a time), so I've gotten the chance to look after them and give them walks when they were away on vacation. My most recent experience was with my roommate's St Bernard. Optimus is the largest dog I've ever cared for let alone lived with. He's been a ton of work considering his previous owner's unfortunate lack of care. We've dealt with ear infections and bulking up to a healthy weight. Throughout all, patience and determination prevailed and he's our big buddy. I'm currently working three 12-hour shifts each week providing me evenings on work days and full days twice during week and all weekend for caring for cats. I'm unavailable Wednesday evenings and weekend mornings for religious reasons. I have a clean home vacuumed every morning with plenty of windows for looking out of. Scratching posts are in every room with plenty of toys and treats to go around. I love petting cats and giving belly rubs if that's their thing.
“Kim is amazing. She walked Major twice a day, half an hour each walk, regardless of rain or cold. So dedicated and saved me during my work trip when another sitter kept him isolated in a sunroom and made him so anxious. I will definitely use Kim again.”
“Daniela was great with my dog Fetty. She came to meet her before I left on my trip so that Fetty knew her and was comfortable. I’m away a few times every year and Daniela will be my first choice to take care of Fetty.”
About: Hi my name is Michael. I am a current senior at Wilkes who is looking to get involved in the local community. I have spent several years caring for dogs. I have two of my own at home in Stroudsburg (pit mixes), and in high school and over breaks I have pet sat and walked dogs for over a dozen homes in my community. I take pride in being a student leader and a future educator, as well as being responsible, dependable, and knowledgeable. For instance, I am well versed in dog body language, basic obedience, and many different breeds and personalities (small to big, guardian breeds, I love them all!). I am happy to reinforce the rules, expectations, and training that you have with your pet, or teach small new things like leash manners. Whether your dog needs to burn some energy, or just needs someone to check in on them throughout the week, I hope that you will consider me! Being a college student, my schedule is actually pretty flexible. I am generally available for: Morning/Midday walks/check-ins throughout the work week. Afternoon and evening visits on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Weekend stays or longer visits potentially as well. If you have any questions please reach out and I can see if we can work something out! Being a pet parent myself, I understand the varying needs and concerns when it comes to a pet sitter. Because of that, I take time to speak with all owners about expectations, routines, and how they would like me to approach their home and pets. I usually like to meet all pets with the owners before beginning care as well, simply to ensure that they are comfortable with me. Generally, I will also take notice and respond to any body language or comfort concerns, exercise and training expectations, feeding and medication routines, and any other requests that an owner or pet may bring! If you have any questions please also reach out!
“Jared and Karen are excellent with Wally. Wally already loves them and looks forward to his daily walks. Both Jared and Karen are huge animal lovers and it shows. I feel very comfortable with them walking Wally because I know they take great care of him.”
About: Hi, I'm Robyn, a lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of trusted experience caring for dogs & cats of all breeds, ages, and personalities. I've grown up with a variety of animals my entire life (cats, dogs, guinea pigs, turtles, mice). For the past decade, I've been the go to pet sitter and dog walker for family and friends. Whether it’s high energy pups or senior cats who just want some company, I treat every pet like my own with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. Before I was old enough to work, I spent time volunteering at a local animal shelter during my teen years. It gave me early hands on experience caring for animals with all kinds of personalities and needs, and helped shape my lifelong love and respect for animals. Right now, I share my home with a 5 year old beagle named Scout who I’ve raised since he was a puppy. Whether you're looking for reliable walks, drop ins, or overnight care, you can count on me to keep your pet safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I send regular updates and photos, and I always follow your care instructions to the letter. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! As a stay at home mom, I'm home and active throughout the day, which allows me to fit pet care into my regular routine. During the school year I'm available for walks and visits from 9am-2pm during the week, and I have full day availability on Sunday. During the summer I have full availability Sunday-Tuesday. I'm used to planning my days around care and routines, so incorporating pet care feels like a natural fit. Whether it's a morning walk to start the day, a dinner time drop in, or extended weekend care, I make sure every pet gets the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. When caring for pets in their own home, I always follow the pet parent's instructions closely to ensure consistency and comfort for their pet. I'm very detail oriented and make sure routines, feeding, medications, and preferences are followed exactly as requested. I also let the pet guide the pace of our interactions whether that means playtime, cuddles, or simply being a calm, reassuring presence. My goal is to make them feel safe, respected, and as relaxed as possible while you're away

About: I have worked in the vet med field. Taking care of pets is part of the job. I was a kennel assistant as well. I am pet CPR and First Aid Certified, so you can have comfort that I will know what to do in emergency situations for your pets. Will take real time photos of your pets to keep you updated while you are away. I am going to school for becoming a certified veterinary technician. So I feel my skills help me help people with their pets. I have done house calls for giving medication, nail trims, and pet sitting. I WILL NOT take care of your pet if they are aggressive or have bitten someone in the past. For unvaccinated pets I will not take care of them if they have bitten someone. No acceptions! ALL pets are prefered to be up to date on vaccines. I also require a meet and greet of your pets prior to any services so they get to know me and no complications arise, especially for house sitting. I will come to your house and do anything they would need, making it more comfortable for your pet. Whether it be walking your pets, pet sitting, giving medication, nail trims, or taking them out to potty.

“Daniela was absolutely amazing. I will 100% be booking with her again. Hampton was taken care of like he was her own dog, she sent me updates, and communicated perfectly. I felt comfortable the second I met her, Hampton has a new best friend. He misses her already. Thank you Daniela!”
“Laura is always wonderful with our fur baby! This visit she helped with my daughters puppy too. They were very well taken care of and came home very happy dogs. I would recommend Laura to anyone!”
“She had been amazing to my dog and met up several times. My dog adore her. She’s great taking care of my dog while I went on vacation. She really gives me peace of mind. Highly recommended. She sent me videos and pictures. Definitely will be it interesting booking with her again”
“Very caring and very professional. I knew when I met her that my dog was in good hands. He’s never been away overnight with someone else. He handled it well because it’s obvious she loves animals and knows how to take care of them. Highly recommend.”
“Sarah took amazing care of our Goldendoodle, Olympia, while we were away. This was Olympia’s first boarding experience, so we were naturally a little nervous, but Sarah made us feel at ease from the start. She communicated quickly, sent regular updates and photos, and kept us informed throughout the stay. Olympia looked happy, was eating well, and clearly had a great time playing. We also had to extend our trip unexpectedly, and Sarah was incredibly flexible and accommodating, which we truly appreciated. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Olympia was in such good hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy sitter. Thank you again, Sarah!”
“Adam did a great job boarding and caring for our 80lb higher energy labrador. Very communicative and sent pictures. We also requested Adam apply an allergy meds which he was great at. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Adam!”
“Adriana was great! We had to book at the last minute because we were traveling through and accidentally booked a hotel that didn’t allow pets. She was very accommodating. She sent us lots of photos of our dog during his stay. He clearly felt very comfortable at her house based on the photos. She is very friendly and her own dog is so sweet. If we ever need a dogsitter when traveling through Scranton again, we will definitely use Adriana.”
“Cheyenne was a savior. She agreed to board our pet (Snowball) when we had a last minute cancellation. She was very quick to provide a response when we reached out via the Rover app to have a quick meet and greet and agreed to board snowball. Sure was very considerate and understanding our angst about staying away from our pet and regularly shared Snowball's photos. Snowball had a great time with waffle and Cheyenne's family. She took extra care to feeding snowball when snowball was missing us, took her on walks and hike, treated her with ice cream and went out of her way to give snowball a bath and made her smell really good with aromatic oils. We were very lucky to find someone as caring as Cheyenne and her family, so much so that we already planned to board Snowball with her in our upcoming trip. Thank you for taking so good care of her.”
“Jack and Joanne were absolutely wonderful to our 1 year old Weimaraner. Their property is expansive and perfect for a dog who requires a great deal of exercise. I could tell how much they love and care for animals. I highly recommend these wonderful, trustworthy people. We were updated daily with photos and videos of our boy!”
“Hailey did an amazing job with Kylo. We were worried about leaving him since he has never been to a new place with us. She did such a great job with him and sent us photos of his stay. He felt we didn't have to worry at all. We are so happy we chose Hailey to watch our family member. We recommend her to anyone who wants to feel carefree when they have to leave their pet behind.”
About: Lifelong Dog and Cat person, have always had pets and always will. I love all animals. My dog Hank was diagnosed with Glaucoma right before his 6th birthday; it was an adjustment getting used to a new routine of 3 different types of Eye-drops, every 8 hours. My friends and colleagues had often commented, "You're really good with animals." the💡idea became a recurring suggestion that I would enjoy offering temporary care to other people's Pets, similarly to how I lovingly care for any of my own animals. Often get asked why/how my dog Hank is so well behaved, mellow, and such a good dog. Is it the training? "Sure," of course. But most of it is quite simple: Hank is rarely left alone. He goes everywhere with me. He hikes about 5 miles every day. He doesn't overeat, or sit-around. He's active, gets exercise, and is socialized often with other people and pets. So when he meets a new person, it's not a first, it's his daily routine. If your work/life balance has you leaving your pet alone most days? I can help change your dog's daily routine - so when you come home from work? Your dog has had a full day of activities they enjoy, and are happy to see you (with less pent up energy) Available 7 days a week to care for your dogs or cats. Have flexibility to be able to adjust to a variety of tasks. Let's chat about what you need. Whether I'm stopping-in quickly to fill the water & food bowl, administering some mid-day medication, taking your dog outside for a brief walk, or picking up your pet at your place & taking it to their favorite park or nature center; even having your pet for a play-date at my house with our huge fenced in Yard, or doing a doggy slumber party at your home. I'm ready to keep your pet entertained, well cared for, well fed, up to date on all medications, and very well-loved while they're in my care. Relax knowing, i've checked ✔️ off that box representing the responsibility of your dog or cat, while you're working or vacationing.
“Mandy and her family has been wonderful for Lala’s first time with them. Lala seems very comfortable with them and we feel she was well look after. Will definitely reach out again to them if we ever need help.”
“Our Rusty will not go to many people but on our meet & greet he went right to Lorraine and her husband we knew he had trust in them and that made us very comfortable. He also buddied right up to Koko. On his stay with Lorraine we found that she responded to us instantly with a text when we checked in on him. We feel that it was a very good decision to pick Lorraine as Rusty's sitter and have already scheduled another long weekend with her.”
