“Abner was great! We just moved to the state and had no clue where to start with a dog sitter, but we felt comfortable leaving our pup with Abner very quickly. Very kind, and he clearly loves dogs. Our girl is pretty nervous but he took the time to make sure she was comfortable and she ended up having a great time.”
“Rochelle is amazing! She sent me pics of my dog, allowed me to bring my pup earlier than scheduled. Even helped her with feeding properly. My puppy absolutely loved her stay and passed out for hours after I picked her up. Thank you Rochelle!”
“I found a great family to watch my dogs over the weekend! Melissa, Angel and their 2 boys made my pups feel right at home! They sent photos and a video each day of the dogs sleeping, playing, watching TV on the couch with family. Mellisa and Angel are my new go to people with Rover.”
“Monica was great. She allowed Sherpa to get accustomed to the surroundings and she had no problem accepting his large sleeping bed. She provided lots of pics to let us know he was fine and was very accommodating when we had to pick him up early. Great person to watch your pet!”
“Leila and her pup, Marley, are amazing hosts! If you’re looking for a family to love on your pets while you can’t I recommend this family! 6 older children in the house means your pets are always being loved on! Leila has a huge space in her living room for your pets to play and her backyard is a dog’s playground with everything they can explore! My one dog is a runner and Leila kept him safe and spoiled with his fun walks! Many pictures sent along with updates on how the pets are doing! We will definitely be repeat clients! Thanks, Leila!! 🤗”
“If you would like a SUPER dog sitter for your fur baby, Shantel is your answer! She was a wonderful communicator during pre-care set up and all thru our fur baby's stay. (Although she did spoil him just a bit)! There is no question in our family that she will be the only person we request in the future if we are traveling in her area. We hope to see her in Sept and next summer again! THANKS to you Shontel and Jose for being Super awesome to our dog Zero. He misses you both!”
“Marie was easy to work with and helped get a last minute overnight set up for my mom’s dog. She was responsive, provided updates. Will use again if we are ever in the area.”
“Heaven was great kept us updated with pictures and videos of our little Vito. She was great and Vito enjoyed the care she provided. Will definitely use Heaven again thank you Heaven.”

“It wasn't easy for me to find a sitter for Sugar on short notice, because Sugar needed a sitter who had no other pets. I am so grateful that Michael hosted my baby! I could tell that Michael cared for her, and Sugar was very happy with him. We have a time share in the Poconos, and I will definitely use Michael next year, and any time we plan another vacation in the area. Thank you, Michael!”

“Scott continues to do an amazing job as a dog sitter for our dog Odysseus. Our dog has surgery and he is more anxious now. I was nervous about him staying someplace overnight again but we trust Scott and again he did not disappoint. He is so caring about animals in general. Shows so much compassion and love. Honestly, if you need a sitter or care in the area for your pets Scott is it! Thank you so much Scott!”

“Jen was an outstanding cat sitter. She accepted my last minute request and immediately made me feel comfortable leaving my cat in her care. My cat requires multiple medications throughout the day, and she handled everything flawlessly. She was kind, attentive, and even took the initiative to research my cat’s condition to better understand his needs. Coming home to a clean house and litter box was so nice after a long day of travel. I couldn’t have asked for better care—highly recommended!”
“Rochelle is super nice and she takes really great care of pets. She was also incredibly flexible (we had some travel plan issues) and communicated very well the whole time with pickup/drop off planning. To top it off, we got nice videos every day :)”
“Second time with Grace and very pleased. She even helped us out by taking a video of storm damage so we could quickly get a tree removal service. So appreciated this. Highly recommend. Love the pictures she sends me of my fur babies (cats). Will definitely use again.”

About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, both growing up and as an adult. Right now I share my home with my nine-month-old golden retriever, so I'm fully in the world of puppy energy, training, and keeping curious noses out of trouble. I've also helped my mom raise several litters of Newfoundland puppies. That taught me how to handle big breeds and wiggly newborns, and how much patience and routine young dogs need. I know that every dog has its own personality, and I pay attention to what yours needs to feel comfortable and safe. I work from home, so I'm around throughout the day during the week and on weekends too. Your dog won't spend long stretches alone. Their day can include regular potty breaks, meals on your schedule, and plenty of company. If your dog enjoys being active and is up for it, I love taking dogs hiking on the trails nearby. For dogs who'd rather keep things low-key, relaxed walks and couch time work just as well. I'll follow your dog's usual routine as closely as possible. Your dog stays in my home, where they'll be treated like part of the family. I don't have a fenced yard, so every trip outside is on a leash, with no exceptions. That way your dog is always under my control and never has a chance to wander off. I live in a quiet rural area without busy roads, which makes for calm, low-stress walks. I'll introduce your dog to my golden retriever slowly and supervise their time together. I'm also happy to send photos and updates so you always know how your pup is doing.
“Heaven was able to take Halo extremely last minute and was superb with communication, sending photos, and being flexible with pickup/drop-off time!”

“Shelby is great! I'm thankful we were able to connect. Things have been very hectic in our world and having someone we can trust walk our very bouncy 80lb puppy has been unbelievably helpful!

About: I love dogs so much that I adopted a puppy for my dog, who I could tell wanted a friend. I am known to spend all day with my dogs taking them out on doggie dates. We often visit others at the pet store or at the dog park. My older dog loves to run and loves to meet other dogs. My youngest is an adventurer. I have been in a dog-friendly home since I was 9. Cared for my great grandmother at an early age and my first dog as well. I believe that paying attention to your dog is one way to learn from them about what they need. So you can give them the life they can love. Training-wise, I believe in positive reinforcement and the repetition of rewarding good behavior. I work full-time at home M-F, off weekends. My fianceé is home during the afternoon (and will be after COVID) and nights. His work schedule is mornings, off M-W. This makes us uniquely flexible to meet your needs. Our house is a one-story. So you do not need to worry about stairs. We live in a wooded community away from heavy traffic. We have dog runners, which allow the dog to roam outside at his or her own pace while supervised. We live near a dog park that is well-maintained and has separated fences for small or large size dogs. We have a puppy called Dudley and an adult dog named Duke at home that are very friendly and well socilaized. Dudley's favorite game is tug of war.

“Tara was great with our dog, Daisy. She definitely came in clutch since we needed someone to walk Daisy last minute on New Years Eve. She was professional and gave Daisy lots of love. 10/10 would recommend and hire her again. She did everything I asked and was super sweet. If you are on the fence, you will be pleasantly surprised, this is your sign to book with Tara.”

Let me know if you have any sensitivities/ prefer certain cleaning products. Look Forward to meeting you & your pets and learning about their needs. I make sure to feed the pets based on what their owner has prescribed and follow the routine! I also try to provide the dogs as much exercise as I can - if this is suggested -- so they get exercise and get to run around outside. For cats, I always clean the litterbox 2x a day - and spend time with them playing or cuddling. Dogs get loads of cuddles, scritches, and backmassages too. If you have cats that are part time outdoor cats and also indoor cats -- I will only let the cats out, while I am at the house 100% of the time and supervising them, as I want to ensure that your pets are safe.
About: Hi there! I’m Heather, and what sets me apart from other dog sitters is the level of compassionate, personalized care I provide. With years of experience caring for all types of animals, I understand the patience, gentleness, and extra attention they deserve. I’m here to make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’ve also fostered kittens, so I’m comfortable with multi-pet homes and understand the importance of adapting to each animal’s unique personality and routine. Your pets won’t just be looked after—they’ll be treated like family. My work schedule is on Monday-Friday from 830-430. However, accommodations can be made if necessary. I am completely free and around on Saturdays and Sundays. I cannot care for pets in my home because I have pets of my own and other household members, but I am available to care for pets at the clients home.
About: As a pet sitter, my distinguishing factor lies in my versatile skill set. I specialize in not just caring for pets but also excel in training puppies, ensuring they develop into well-mannered companions. Additionally, I have extensive experience in compassionate senior pet care, tailoring my services to meet the unique needs of our cherished older furry friends. Your pets are not just looked after; they're nurtured and enriched under my attentive care. I am a full time dog sitter, both weekdays and weekends work well for me. Just shoot me a message and I’ll get back to you shortly. Thank you! I have two cats and a dog. I keep my cats in door and feed them a mixture of dry and wet food, but I strictly follow any instructions a owner provides for their pet’s feedings. I take my dog outside at least three times a day and I make sure he gets enough exercise and mental stimulation.

“Abner was great! We just moved to the state and had no clue where to start with a dog sitter, but we felt comfortable leaving our pup with Abner very quickly. Very kind, and he clearly loves dogs. Our girl is pretty nervous but he took the time to make sure she was comfortable and she ended up having a great time.”

We hope to see her in Sept and next summer again! THANKS to you Shontel and Jose for being Super awesome to our dog Zero. He misses you both!”

“Parcha stayed overnight at Dawn’s for two days. Dawn sent me progress reports with plenty of pictures. I could tell that Parcha was enjoying her stay. Dawn and her family played and interacted with Parcha. Her two boys played with her, gave her hugs and kisses. There were two other dogs that Parcha was able to socialize with as well. She also was able to run and exercise in the yard. Parcha came home and fell fast asleep. She was on doggie vacation with Dawn. Two fun filled days. I am very pleased with the service Dawn provided. She is a real dog lover. I highly recommend her.”
