“We were in a bind and Leila stepped up to help us out. We were super nervous to leave our dog with a stranger but it wound up being a great decision. She was excellebt with our old guy and she sent us photos and kept in touch. Will be booking again.”
“Monica and her family was great with my Giovanna, I’m already to book my next stay with her for my two week vacation. We received updates on how our puppy was doing. She went on walks it was like she was home away from home. So much better than placing her in a kennel. Monica and family will be my puppy new extended family. I can now relax while going away :-) thank you Monica for taking such good care of Giovanna”
“I genuinely do not have words for how amazing Shantell and Jose were with our puppy. So beyond communicative, sent so many pictures and videos and not only through that but once we got home we could tell she had the time of her life. I couldn't recommend Shantell more - if you have the opportunity, BOOK HER. We never once had a single doubt about our dog's safety and happiness. Thank you Shantell and Jose!!!!!”
“Emily was amazing with Maverick. We just moved to the area 2 weeks ago and Mav had never been with anyone but his original pet sitter in Florida. He immediately went to Emily and her dogs and felt at home. Thrilled to have found Emily and the Mav had a peaceful family weekend away! We will absolutely be using her again and again!”
“Amazing puppy sitters for my babies. I got multiple pictures every day. Plenty of walks. And my pups were so happy and content when I picked them up. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟”
“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.”
“Very nice woman. She makes you feel comfortable and she took really good care of my puppy. So much so that my puppy wanted to stay with her and wouldn’t come with me. Amazing experience thank you!!”
“Elaine was great with my pup Nugget. She sent daily pictures and updated me each evening about Nugget's day. It was wonderful to be able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my fur baby was in such good hands. Will definitely book Elaine again!”
“Jazmine (and her boyfriend Norman) took wonderful care of our 12-year-old black Lab, Judy, who is a cancer survivor and a bit particular—sweet, but needy and not a fan of other dogs. Jazmine cared for her in her home, made sure she had her morning medicine, and sent us daily updates with snuggle photos that made us feel completely at ease. Judy was clearly loved and beautifully looked after. Warm, professional, and trustworthy—highly recommend.”
“Laurie was great! Very nice lady. As soon as we met her I knew our pets would be safe with her.She updated me everyday, sent us videos or pictures. My furbabies had a great stay and didnt want to leave at all. They were having a great time with Laurie! Highly recommend her. Thanks Laurie!”
“Very friendly and communicative. Sent photo updates. Very quick response time. Oakley seemed so happy to be there and got along with her family well. My dog had an uncharacteristic accident (pee) over night and Ana handled this without issue or frustration. She helped Oakleys settle in and feel comfortable so this didn’t happen again!”
“Scott was wonderful at keeping us up to date on Copper while he was staying with him. We were able to enjoy our trip so much more, knowing Copper was in good hands.”
“Joanne was fantastic and made me feel she would protect (and spoil) my two high-energy dogs. Joanne was very responsive and kept us updated frequently. I would 100% recommend. Thank you, Joanne!”
“Brewster was very happy with virlyne and Vanessa. I was more than happy with the photos they sent daily to keep me connected to Brewster. Their manners and kindness was more than extraordinary, towards me and Brewster. I will definitely utilize their services again, in the future Thank you young ladies Andrea”
“Gwen and family took such good care of Spencer. I love how happy he seemed when I picked him up. It’s clearly a safe and fun place for him to be. Thank you so much!”

About: I’ve always had a love for dogs, and before I moved to America we owned two amazing high energetic dogs. I loved taking them on walks and letting them explore the environment. I will ensure your dog is having as much fun as I will on his/her walk. I like getting exercise through walking so your dog will be getting plenty of it. Your dogs safety is also a top priority to me at all times and I will ensure that whatever activities we’ll be engaging in, they'll be kept safe. I work full time but still have plenty of time in the day to play and love your pup, my husband is also usually home as well and will generally help with care I have a fenced in backyard that I like taking the dogs outside to if they don’t need a long walk while they stay. We can also play.
About: I’ve been around dogs and animals in general since a young age, with my grandpa running a small farm. I’ve grown up around breeds like German Shepherds, and have always taken care of friends’ dogs while they were in vacation. I learned a lot from my fiancé, who ran a successful dog walking business in New York City Give yourself peace of mind, your dog is in safe, loving, caring hands. I’m currently working from home with a special schedule which I take advantage of as it frees up a lot of time during the day. Pet care fits into it quite easily, as I have a daily routine I follow which includes dog walks, time with the dogs outside and of course feedings (and tending medicine when needed). I have a home situated on a quiet, secluded private lot that backs up onto a river with several trails within a short walking distance. The yard is secluded, well shaded and has ample space. I take care to be active with the dogs, so I usually toss frisbees or play fetch several times a day to keep them content. I walk my dogs twice around the neighborhood. Besides home, I have a number of dog-friendly trails and parks both in East Stroudsburg and nearby where I bring the dogs for some quality time outside. This includes hiking on trails and in the mountains, bringing the dogs to rivers or lakes, I mix it up each week depending on the weather conditions. Any time I go on an outdoor adventure, I make sure I have the owner’s consent. Their dogs will always be hydrated and have a snack. I only ask that if your dog has specific dietary needs or is taking medication, that you provide me with the necessary information and schedule. I have two modes of transport for dogs, both of which offer plenty of space, safety and comfort for the dogs while en route.
“Jennifer was excellent. Prompt, attentive, and went above and beyond to care for my cats while I was away. She gave detailed information and sent me pics, which was awesome! Even though the cats were hiding!”
“Thalia accepted my reservation right before we had to leave for a trip and my cat needed medication to be given 2x a day. Thalia took care of it no problem, sent me photos where I could see how the eye was looking and made me feel at ease. My cat was so happy, healthy and well cared for. I will definitely be rebooking. Highly recommend”
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs of all ages, including my own. From puppy stage to senior. I’ve been trusted by friends and family to care for their dogs including walks, play time, and any special needs they may have. I work taking care of your pet into my schedule, early mornings or late nights are no issue. I set aside as much time as needed for play, walks etc. I have a very large back yard in a low traffic neighborhood. I have two dogs of my own that are very well behaved and love to play!
“Kimberly was awesome! She communicated with us everyday and always made sure to send several photos during her visits. It was a pleasure to work with her and we would absolutely work with her again.”
“I am so happy to have found Autumn to take care of our Kelce while we were away! She went above and beyond, even when Kelce got into mischief! Our minds were at ease our entire trip! We will definitely use her again!”
“Kathrine was great. Very communicative and right in time. She takes studio quality photos and seemed to connect with our pet. She did an unasked act of kindness and it was very appreciated.”
About: I am a dog lover and owner just like you. I know how difficult it can get sometimes but no worries. That's what I'm here for. Your dog will be in excellent hands. I will play, exercise, and create a bond with your dog as if they were my own. I will always keep you updated since I know how nerve wrecking it may be sometimes. I have experience with many different dogs such as but not limited to Maltese, Pitbulls, German Shepherds, Collie's, Yorkie's, and more. Don't hesitate to contact me ever (even if it's just to say hello to your baby's - I understand). I'll make sure your dogs are feed and they get a well enough walk before taking them home to rest. I'm currently a full-time dog sitter/walker, so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your doggies. I am available at anytime, reach out with your request! If I am caring for your fur-baby in my home I have an unfenced yard to 3 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I do have an outdoor doggie playpen. I can easily separate and crate your dog as well as mine if needed. I like to work with your dog, so introductions to my dogs as well as my yard will be done at your dogs pace. I am great with commands and a great alpha for the dogs to follow.
About: Cats have always held a special place in my heart, and with experience caring for multiple cats of my own, I understand how important patience, gentleness, and routine are for them. Whether your cat is playful, shy, independent, or affectionate, I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. From feeding and playtime to cuddles and companionship, I’ll care for your cat like they’re part of my own family.
About: I have had friends with cats my entire life and have helped take care of them. I used to consider myself a dog person but now I know that I love dogs and cats equally! Cats are independent and have their own boundaries, which I greatly respect. I know some people don't like cats for that reason. I've fed, snuggled, played with, and cleaned the litter boxes of kitties many a time. Hearing a cat purr is one of my joys in life. Whatever your cat needs, I will be happy to provide!
“I can’t recommend Arianna enough! Leaving our two Cane Corsos in someone else’s care is never something we take lightly — they’re large, strong dogs with unique needs and big personalities. But Arianna handled everything with confidence, care, and professionalism from start to finish. If you’re looking for someone reliable and trustworthy who truly gets dogs, especially big ones like Cane Corsos, look no further. We’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Scotty has been amazing. He's very communicative, follows all the instructions, and even takes excellent photos of my pets! I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for pet care.”

“Leila was amazing, this was the first time Ash had been away from us since we got him last year. He was nervous and made a mess at Leila's, she was so kind about it! We are working on his anxiety and she made it much easier for us to leave him for the day. We will absolutely be using her again!”

About: My name is Monica. I have taken care of pets for over 29 years. I currently have 3 cats both neutered. One is a senior 15 yrs old, then there is 7 yrs and 1 yr. They keep to themselves. Over the years many dogs and cats have came and went each showing their individuality. Each pet has a need which will be met according to your standards. If you book me for a Board or even a day stay I promise to have you and your furry friend 100% satisfied. I can also walk them,and do drop bys. Your pet will always have someone around in my home(if they like children). It can be hard to find someone as trustworthy as it is for me. They are just as much children and finding the right person takes time. I'm willing to show I am trustworthy And will treat them as my own. I have 3 floors,so if any pets I care for needs personal space I can accommodate. We also have a spare room where they can relax. Due to health I can only take dogs up to 18 lbs. Please note my drop-off and pickup fee is for within a 15 mile radius. If you need pickup outside that range higher fees apply. I'm a stay at home mom who works from home. I am flexible. Other then appointments and cooking. I'm usually available during the week and most weekends. My house has unfenced yard I have 2 floors,so if any pets I care for needs personal space I can accommodate. We also have a spare room where they can relax.
About: I’m very attentive and careful with dogs—I have a wonderfully silly pup of my own, so I understand how curious (and mischievous!) they can be. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. I’ll make sure they’re well-fed, well-cared for, and having plenty of fun while they’re with me. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from a sassy medium-sized Terrier to an extremely large, goofy Malamute/Husky. I’ve also regularly cared for my cousin’s Yorkies and currently share my home with a very loved Coonhound/Terrier mix. Because of this, I’m comfortable adapting to different energy levels, temperaments, and routines. I truly believe dogs deserve patience, affection, and consistency. I go above and beyond to ensure every dog in my care feels loved, secure, and never overlooked—just like they would at home. I work from home during the following hours, which allows me to provide frequent attention, potty breaks, and supervision: Monday–Friday: 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM I work from home Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, allowing me to provide frequent potty breaks, meals, playtime, supervision, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day! I live in a spacious two-bedroom apartment designed to be a comfortable and safe environment for dogs. There are multiple cozy, high-quality dog beds throughout the space so pups always have options for relaxing and settling in. I also have a window perch overlooking Main Street, which dogs love for observing the world go by. My town is very walkable and dog-friendly, with several nearby businesses that welcome dogs—perfect for safe walks, enrichment, and (of course) quality people-watching. My own dog is extremely gentle and well-socialized—best described as a “cat in a dog’s body.” She is calm, respectful of other dogs’ space, and enjoys playful interactions when invited, making her a great companion for visiting pups.
About: Taking care of animals is my calling! They love me and I love them. I’ve always enjoyed working with animals since a young age. I have worked in the dog grooming business training to hopefully own my own dog hotel in the near future! I also have worked at boarding facilities for dogs/cats. I have found that I truly love anything that provides a better space for animal boarding/care. I’m excited to have expanded my experience in dog sitting/walking! I will be offering grooming to the pups I dog sit/walk so feel free to ask about getting a bath/groom! Currently I work full time at a veterinary facility/grooming facility. I can provide my services so long as the dates are available on my schedule! :) Each pet would be cared for differently according to their needs. Lots of love will be given to each dog I sit/walk, if allowed a few treats and toys for good behavior, and safety for the dogs and myself will be the main priority.
“Melissa and Angel are great! They took great care of my dog Whiskey, providing walks, playtime, and plenty of pictures throughout. I will definitely use them again when I’m in the area. Highly recommend!!”
“We are so appreciative to Michele. She was sable to accommodate us at the last minute. Her home is so inviting and dog friendly. Mason, our golden doodle enjoyed his time immensely and needed to be cajoled to hop back into our car to get home! I’ve never seen that before! I think he wanted to stay longer. Mason was safe, well cared for and happy. We will certainly reach out to Michele to look after Mason the next time we are in town again!”
“Maria and her husband watched our pup while we went to great wolf lodge for the day ave it worked out perfect! They were located close by and were easy to work with seeing we had to pick up earlier than expected. Would recommend to anyone who needs someone to watch their pup.”
About: Since pre-teen, I grew up with dogs mostly as my parents had several dogs in the house. I love to care for dogs and make sure they’re happy and loved. Before Rover, I’ve walked and looked after neighbors’ dogs and owners have confided in me to care for them while they are away (i.e., family vacations, business trips, etc…). Currently my job is fully remote and I can mainly dog-sit during the day on a weekly basis. During the weekends, I can board, house sit and help in any way that I can with advance notice. My apartment is pet friendly and it is safe environment for dogs of any type. Apartment has easy dog access and Center City neighborhood is very safe. I live in between Rittenhouse Square Park and Washington Square park (~5mins walk).
About: As a nature-loving Poconos local, I bring a mix of deep care and joyful energy to every walk. I was the proud mama of a small dog who lived to be 15— she my best friend and like a child to me—so I understand the depth of love, trust, and nuance that comes with caring for a beloved fur baby. Whether your pup is sprightly or senior, playful or shy, I tune into their personality and pace. I offer more than just care—I offer connection, trust, and peace of mind. I work from home full-time, which gives me the flexibility to offer consistent, reliable walks throughout the day. I’m happy to communicate updates, photos, or notes so you always feel connected and confident. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I bring a calm, attentive presence to every walk, always keeping a close eye on surroundings, leash safety, and your fur baby’s well-being. With years of experience as a devoted dog mama, I understand how to build trust—through consistency, gentle communication, and honoring each dog’s unique needs.
“My husband and I couldn’t be happier with the care Joann and Angelina provided for Minnie! From the moment we met, I knew my Minnie would be in good hands. She sent regular updates and photos, which made me feel so reassured. My Minnie came back home happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. Joann’s attention to detail and genuine love for animals really showed. Highly recommend and will definitely book again! Thank you for treating Minnie like family! She misses Remi already !!!!”
“15/10! I was so nervous to leave my babies with someone who I did not know but was so comforted by the pictures and videos I got showing that they had a great time. They came home super happy and exhausted. Will definitely be a return customer!”
“Maggie had a great time at Scott’s. We felt very comfortable leaving Maggie with Scott and when we returned to pick her up we could tell that she liked him and was comfortable there. She will definitely be visiting again.”
About: As a proud owner of a Great Dane, I’ve gained firsthand insight into the unique needs and challenges that come with caring for larger breeds, and I’m well-equipped to manage dogs of all sizes with their energy, health, and well-being!🐾 As a student-athlete, my schedule can be pretty packed during the season, but right now, I'm in the off-season, which gives me more flexibility to dedicate time to pet care. I make sure to prioritize pet sitting around my routine, whether it’s morning walks, playtime, or administering care. I structure my day to allow plenty of time for the pets I care for, ensuring they get attention, exercise, and love! When caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s, safety and trust are my top priorities. In my own home, I ensure that the environment is pet-friendly and secure, with designated spaces for pets to play, rest, and feel comfortable. At client’s home, I follow their guidelines carefully to make sure their pets feel at ease in their familiar surroundings. I always take extra precautions to pet-proof the area, ensure doors and gates are securely closed, and maintain a calm, consistent routine for the pets.
About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for dogs and would love to take my time out to take care of yours when you don’t have the time. I currently have a part time job but I’m willing to make time out for my furry friends and can watch them on some weekdays and weekends I have a spacious back yard where your dogs can run around and play all day. I also have two loving dogs that will keep yours company.
“What a gift! Very organized and very knowledgeable. She eased my fears with her constant videos. Excellent communicator and responds almost immediately. You can immediately tell that she has been working with pets and pet owners for a while. My dog was scard at first...by day 2...her tail was wagging high in the air and I knew she was ok. When we got home...she was the same bubbly dog I knew. Highly recommend”

“Gill was able to do a meet-and-greet with us and walk Poppy on short notice! It is reassuring knowing that our puppy was able to have great care right off the get-go. Gill sent us pictures and gave us a descriptive update on how the walk went while we weren't home. We appreciate her love for animals and the thoroughness of care!”

“It’s obvious from the minute you communicate with Thalia she loves animals. She even works for a shelter to help animals in need. Thalia was dependable, a great communicator & very conscientious. I was gone both times can’t wait to meet her!”
About: I have helped take care of numerous types of animals. I help local animal shelters and local animal rehabilitation centers in and around the Poconos! I am currently available any day of the week! My calender is always up to date for you to see if we are a good match 🤗 I can crate, walk, feed, and love any animal that needs it. I have had all kinds of pets growing up so I'm not shy about giving animals the attention and love they deserve.
About: Hi! My name is Deja, and I’m someone who has loved and cared for animals my entire life. I grew up with both cats and dogs and currently have experience caring for multiple pets of my own, including 4 cats and 2 dogs. Over the last 1–2 years, I’ve also gained hands-on pet care experience outside of my own home. As a therapist, compassion, patience, and attentiveness are a huge part of who I am, and I bring those same qualities into the care I provide for every pet. What makes me stand out is the level of care, patience, and emotional attentiveness I bring to animals. I genuinely see pets as beings with feelings, emotions, and unique personalities, and I treat them with the same kindness and respect I would give another person. Being a therapist has strengthened my ability to be calm, observant, trustworthy, and responsive to individual needs, which helps pets feel comfortable and secure around me. I don’t just “watch” pets — I build connection, provide comfort, and make sure they feel loved while you’re away. I recently earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and currently work part-time as a therapist while continuing to grow my caseload. Pet sitting is something I genuinely enjoy and intentionally include in my schedule because caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. Since I work part time, I’m able to dedicate focused attention, patience, and quality care to the pets I work with rather than treating it like a rushed side job. When caring for pets in your home, I strive to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and emotional needs, so I approach each animal with compassion, empathy, and attentiveness. Whether your pet needs playtime, comfort, companionship, or gentle patience, I will treat them with the same love and care I would give my own pets.
About: Stay at home mom with large fenced in yard, many years of experience with dogs. We currently have a 20lb Puggle/Terrier mix and 110lb Great Dane. Both are crate trained and friendly with other animals. I am generally available seven days a week, 24 hours a day for boarding, daycare, walks, training, etc. I have reliable transportation and can be available on short notice. We own a 3400 sq foot home in East Stroudsburg on .75 acres. The dogs are generally kept on the first floor with multiple dog beds and welcome on the furniture. I have crates available if needed. Our large backyard is fenced in with locks on the gates. The dogs are usually supervised while outside. We leave water down all day for the dogs and share treats such as apples, carrots, peanut butter and milk bones.
About: I’ve been around dogs for several years and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or providing companionship, I make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I understand the importance of keeping owners updated and treating every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently a college student on break and work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for dog walking and pet sitting. I enjoy staying active and making sure pets get the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will always follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special needs. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to creating a safe and positive experience for every pet. I’ll also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats from a young age. Family & friends have relied on me to take care of their pets on vacations or weekend holidays away.

About: Hi there! I would love to have the honor of taking care of your fur babies! I have plenty of experience considering I have 9 dogs of my own... yes 9! Two big dogs and the rest are small to medium sized. So I am basically a dog walker at my own house just without the pay, haha. I am a recent college graduate from ESU with a BA in musical theatre but I would love to in the future become a veterinarian someday. My schedule is open and I also have my own transportation! I would describe myself as very reliable, kind, and caring. I hope you consider me to be your pups dog walker, I can promise you they will be in good hands!(:
“Melanie has been walking my dogs now for two months. She is awesome with my two dogs. She is extremely responsible and supremely trustworthy. I have the confidence of knowing that she will take care of my home as I would. I trust her enough that she has my house keys and alarm code. She keeps notified about the dogs status as she arrives and leaves. Melanie is a gem.”
About: My name is Gaia, and I walk dogs with my dad - Jimmy. I grew up my whole life surrounded by animals, and love caring for them big or small! I can train young pets (although I am not certified to) to do simple commands. I try my best to make your dog(s) feel safe and happy each time I see them. I take time to get to know each pet, whether they are shy, playful, or energetic 🥳 My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and at home! I am 15 years old and a student. My schedule is somewhat flexible and I am available Monday-Thursday from 2pm-6pm. My rates can vary depending on how I need to care for your pet. I prefer to do drop in visits in YOUR house, I have a big dog that may not be friendly with other dogs 🙃 I’ve had dogs, cats, hamsters, and bearded dragons growing up. I am a volunteer at a wildlife rescue center and can care for any animal very well! I can feed, walk, or let your pet out for a quick break if needed.
“Ashley was great!! On time, played with my dog and sent photos. My dog was getting over an injury and she double checked with me about meds and was very communicative. Would book again.”
About: I've been a dog person my whole life — there's never been a time I didn't have one by my side. Since I was 15, I've been training Cane Corsos, which has given me a deep understanding of large, powerful breeds and the patience, consistency, and confidence it takes to work with them well. That experience has carried over into a love for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments — from tiny lap dogs to high-energy working breeds. Whether your dog is a laid-back couch companion or needs an experienced handler who understands structure and exercise, I've got the background to make sure they're safe, comfortable, and well cared for. As a contractor, my schedule gives me a big advantage when it comes to dog sitting — I'm usually home all day, every day, and typically only work about once a week. That means your dog won't be left alone for long stretches; they'll have consistent company, attention, and bathroom breaks throughout the day. Whether it's a midday walk, playtime in the yard, or just having someone around for comfort, your pup will rarely be without a friendly face nearby. I've been a dog person my whole life — there's never been a time I didn't have one by my side. Since I was 15, I've been training Cane Corsos, which has given me a deep understanding of large, powerful breeds and the patience, consistency, and confidence it takes to work with them well. That experience has carried over into a love for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments — from tiny lap dogs to high-energy working breeds. Whether your dog is a laid-back couch companion or needs an experienced handler who understands structure and exercise, I've got the background to make sure they're safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
About: I love taking care of fur babies and I had a 120lb Great Pyrenees and mini schnauzer myself. As an experienced dog handler, I'll be sure your dog gets excersize, stays safe, and is taken care of and loved when you're gone. Whatever your dogs needs, just let me know and I will be sure to provide for them and send daily pictures too! Walk, play, bathe, visit, cuddle, or stay overnights. If you are training your dog I can continue it so they get all the practice while you're gone. Anything else, feel free to ask with a message! Please include in your messages your pets schedules and any special care, training, or behavior instructions to note. I work from home so pets usually stay around me the whole day! I get breaks to take them out and play. Home dinner time and wind down before sleep. Fenced yard, will walk on leash around neighborhood, crate is great to bring if they are used to sleeping in it, I let them go in and out as they please

“I genuinely do not have words for how amazing Shantell and Jose were with our puppy. So beyond communicative, sent so many pictures and videos and not only through that but once we got home we could tell she had the time of her life. I couldn't recommend Shantell more - if you have the opportunity, BOOK HER. We never once had a single doubt about our dog's safety and happiness. Thank you Shantell and Jose!!!!!”
“Amazing puppy sitters for my babies. I got multiple pictures every day. Plenty of walks. And my pups were so happy and content when I picked them up. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟”
“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.”
“Very nice woman. She makes you feel comfortable and she took really good care of my puppy. So much so that my puppy wanted to stay with her and wouldn’t come with me. Amazing experience thank you!!”
“Very friendly and communicative. Sent photo updates. Very quick response time. Oakley seemed so happy to be there and got along with her family well. My dog had an uncharacteristic accident (pee) over night and Ana handled this without issue or frustration. She helped Oakleys settle in and feel comfortable so this didn’t happen again!”
“Scott was wonderful at keeping us up to date on Copper while he was staying with him. We were able to enjoy our trip so much more, knowing Copper was in good hands.”
“Brewster was very happy with virlyne and Vanessa. I was more than happy with the photos they sent daily to keep me connected to Brewster. Their manners and kindness was more than extraordinary, towards me and Brewster. I will definitely utilize their services again, in the future Thank you young ladies Andrea”
“Roosevelt took great care of Tank! He sent us tons of pictures and updates, and I felt confident that Tank was safe and happy while we were gone. We will definitely be using Roosevelt again!”
“Gisselle and her family are the perfect family for our dogs to stay with while away from home!! They are loving, patient, attentive and absolutely spoiled our two Shetland Sheepdogs!! Gisselle sent photos as well as updates throughout the days we were away. The images showed my two pups comfortable, happy and having a blast playing the day away!! I could not be more grateful for her care in every way. Gisselle is my “go to family” now for all our dog care needs. She is the absolute best!!”
“Jessica is excellent. Kept us informed throughout the whole time. She sent us picks and walked China with her dogs. China seemed very happy near her and her dogs. If I visit PA again and need a pet sitter/boarding, I will def. Will look for her services.”
About: I will give your dog(s) my undivided attention. They will be fed and taken for walks. I will engage with them throughout the day, as I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I will care for them just like they were my own pet. Being a dog owner myself, I understand how much they mean to their families. In case of an emergency at home or work, I will provide the necessary care for your dogs. I have a unique bond with every dog I meet and truly enjoy their company, ensuring they receive plenty of affection. In the past, I have cared for my family's dogs, feeding and walking them nearly every day. I am knowledgeable about how to handle dogs safely. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to dog-sit and walk the dogs entrusted to my care. Pet caring is one of my passion because they bring so much joy to our lives. With this being said after work I do appreciate the love my fur babies give me. I love to play and run with fur babies and I also get my weekly exercise in! I have a yard that they can run freely in. They will have access to my balcony for when they need cooling and some quiet.
“Michelle was great. She took care of Maya very well and really ensure that Maya gets a proper care and attention. We are happy that Maya was able to get along so well with Michelle and her family.”
“I felt really good about leaving my 11-year-old Benny boy with Jennifer and Jason after spending an hours visit with them prior to dropping him off. They are clearly dog (animal) people…… and took him into their home as one of theirs. What more could I ask for?”
“Alexandra provided just what we needed for our pup Liddy. We needed a 24 hour sitter close to our daughter’s house who was reliable and provided a warm and loving stay for Liddy. They had a nice time hanging out and Alexandra took excellent care of Liddy. We hope to have Liddy stay with Alexandra again when we visit my daughter (who has a territorial pup and doesn’t like dog visitors).”
“Kamini, her family, and Pia are fantastic. Our dog stayed overnight and I received frequent updates (the right amount), lots of pictures, and great communication!! Even with this being the first time he stayed with them, I was comfortable and confident he was being treated as their own. He got along great with Pia, and we would definitely use Kamini again in the future. Highly recommend. 5 stars!”
“Valerie was amazing. This is our first time to use Rover and I was a little nervous. She communicated with me the whole time and also shared photos of my fur babies. I highly recommend Valerie!”
