“I cannot say enough good things about Katherine! I feel so lucky to have found her! I know my little Frenchie, Mardi, will be excited for the next visit. Katherine was wonderful in sharing regular pictures and updates. Her family also showed my little guy lots of love. Hi highly recommend Katherine!!”
“Anacelia is great. She kept our puppy overnight and her energy and love matched our dog. She also communicated very well. We always felt like Sweetpea was being well taken care of. Thanks.”
“I just moved to the area and needed a sitter while traveling on business. I have a senior dog with Cushings disease and cancer. It killed me to leave her for a few days. But Ceinwen did a great job caring for her, and it wasn’t long until I could tell she felt right at home.”
“Amanda was very accommodating and helpful with our last minute request to take care of our dog for two weeks. She sent us pictures and gave us updates while we were away. Amanda treated our fury best friend like her own. We are very thankful for the care she gave our sweet Charlie. Thanks Amanda!”
“We are so lucky to have found Coleen! She has a great understanding of dog behavior. She put us at ease during an initial phone call and at the meet & greet. She even took extra time to talk with our children who were nervous for our dog's first 'sleepover' and answer any questions they had. We left our 3 year old pit mix with her overnight and we got plenty of pictures. Seems like she enjoyed her time with the whole family (including the family dog). We'll be using Coleen again at the end of the month for our week long vacation.”
“Anita was very agreeable when arranging drop-off and pick-up. She was very kind to Sienna in trying to make her feel comfortable in a strange environment. Anita texted and sent a picture daily to let us know how she was doing, she treated her like a member of the family and it made us feel at ease while we were away. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her to watch our dog again”
“Eunmi is an amazing sitter. I’m so happy I found her. My puppy loves going to her house and he looks so happy being with her in all the pics she sends me. Eunmi is a gem and will take excellent care of your dog. Highly recommended!”
“Mariia was amazing! She became best friends with our cat, taking care of her for 2 whole weeks while we were abroad. She communicated with us well and was flexible with our schedule!”
“Carole was great! She responded quickly and sent lots of pictures. My pup definitely enjoyed himself! He came home well cared for and tired from all the play. He got along well with her dog Zoey. Even though Carole is 45 plus minutes away from me, I will definitely make that drive again so she can watch my dog.”
“Theresa took such good care of our two senior weimaraners---it was a short stay (this time), but they came home happy and well cared for. Theresa was very careful to completely understand the dogs' needs (diets, outdoor breaks, exercise, etc.) and was very accommodating for their 2 large beds. (She even slept with them downstairs that night rather than wake them to head upstairs!) We will not hesitate to arrange for her to care for them again; I think they miss Louie!”

I have one dog who loves people and other dogs. I also provide care in clients homes. I always leave the space neat and clean and the pups happy!
“Amanda was fantastic!! She was so excited to take care of my dog and I immediately felt comfortable leaving Penny in her care. She was attentive and responsive and I can tell that she took care of her just as we would have in our own home. I would highly recommend her and will certainly be using her again.”
“Olive was extremely responsive to my messages and shared photos of Charlotte's stay while we were away. Her property, with its fenced in yard, was very conducive to allowing Charlotte to run around and lazily sunbathe. Olive followed all care instructions I provided, and I am fully satisfied with the visit.”

“Becky is an amazing and caring sitter! She administered oral medication to our cat with ease, was able to introduce him to her cat, and provided insightful feedback on his temperament and needs. Rest assured your fur baby will be in good hands - I can’t oversell our experience nor recommend her enough.❤️❤️❤️”
“Becky was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our pet and made the entire experience stress-free. She was reliable, communicative, and sent regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from every interaction that Becky genuinely loves animals and treats them as if they were her own. Our pet was happy, comfortable, and well cared for, and we came home knowing they had been in excellent hands. Becky went above and beyond, and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter. We highly recommend Becky to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“Having Ian as a cat sitter was fantastic! We received thorough notes and photos from each visit, with Ian recognizing the preferences of each cat and engaging with each in a way that best suited them. He went above and beyond and with that, we were able to enjoy our time away knowing our animals were safe and being well cared for.”
“Adrianna was great my cat loved her. I most definitely ask her again. Kept me posted on my cat every day and sent me pictures which make me feel good about leaving him. Always on time. Very neat and the kitty litter was taken care of very good. I can't say enough about her she was excellent.”
“I am so very appreciative of Tricia! I love my doggos with my whole heart, and I wouldn't trust them with just anyone. I knew right away, and my dogs knew right away, Tricia was one of the good ones. Thank you so much for taking care of my babies!”
“We adopted a new dog sooner then expected and reached out to Alexandra last minute to request a few drop in’s for our new pups first week. Not only did she accomodate us, bu she provided a detailed report card and photos to put us new pet parents at ease. Our new dog Millie loves her and we will continue to use her as long as she will allow us!”
“Juliette was so responsive with the lead-up to her watching my cat, Artemis. She contacted me about how Artemis was doing during each visit and she was so kind. I would recommend booking her because she really made sure Artemis was well looked after.”
“Katrina is always thoughtful and cares deeply for your furry kids. She’s always making sure everything is right, and if not, she’ll figure out a way to make it right.”

Both have been beautifully trained by licensed trainers I have experience keeping up with this training at home and I’m more than happy to continue training your pup if I am lucky enough to provide care for your pet. I have loved dogs and they tend to love me back! even my partner‘s dog Luna, who is almost 80 pounds and a huge ball of anxiety warmed up to me instantly! i’m constantly taking my dogs out to play or go on walks!

“Gina did a great job and our dogs were very well taken care of. She communicated very well and we were pleased with all that she did. Will definitely use her again to take care of our dogs!”
“Lauren did an amazing job watching our two dogs, including our senior dog who needs a gentler approach. She was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated the entire time, which gave us total peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals. We’re extremely happy with her service and would absolutely trust her with our pups again! We highly recommend Lauren!”
“Elisa was so exceptional! She consistently followed through with our long list of "tips" for Harley's care, and she included time for "pets" and spending time with our "sensitive" cat. We were greeted with multiple pictures and updated on a daily basis which was very comforting, and came home to a happy, well-adjusted kitty!”
“Lily was great!! Very friendly and left us a note amongst many pictures so we could check in on our fur babies while away. Definitely recommend and would book with her again!”
“Erin was great! Very professional and asked a lot of good questions. During drop in visits, she took good pictures of our cat and gave detailed updates while we were away. I would highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was young. Truthfully I had never been a fan of them until we got kittens during COVID. Around the same time my neighbor moved away and her cat colony moved to my house. Ever since I’ve taken care of my cats as well as my outdoor cats and they are now my favorite animals.
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I could remember, as the youngest kid my family made me do most of the animal care. I currently work full time as a vet tech. I have off all day Wednesday and can do evenings after 5. I am always off Sundays and alternate Saturday mornings at the clinic. I have worked very hard to with my lab pitbull mix to be a confident dog off leash. I can trust him anywhere I go to respect my commands and to listen to me. Safety is a top priority to me as I had a puppy growing up get hit by a car when I was young. After this I needed to make sure my pets were safe and well trained.
“I’ve always been a bit leery to have a stranger come into my home and care for my fur baby, however as soon as I met Morgan I instantly trusted her. She is friendly and kind and without a doubt will love your pet as of it was her own. Morgan was super flexible and so sweet with my kitty. She also went above and beyond her pet sitting duties in many ways. The icing on the cake is that she left my house sparkling clean.”
“Denise was great! We had her stop by midday when we had to leave our new puppy Nova home alone for the first time. From the photos she sent, it looked like Nova loved playing with her!”

“My dogs absolutely loved Heather & had a great time! She took very great care of them, and I believe her daughter helped out, as well. I will definitely be using Heather again!!😊”
About: I have been neighbor hood babysitter and pet sitter since I was 8 years old. Always be responsible and trustworthy. Treat your property and pets as if they were my own. Animals can't speak for themselves so we must be their voice. I work for myself and have flexible schedule. My business is slow right now an I love animals so it will help me cope an offer best care for those who want the best for their loved pets! Animals are the world to me wish I could have more but I rent. I am allowed to have animals over for few days at a time as long as it's not permanent. Perfect for everyone as your pets will be loved as much if not more then expected. I am a serious animal lover and the care I provide will be noticed. Sometimes people say their dogs not friendly yet ends up loving me regardless of what they say or have experienced with other. Kinda like snow white when it comes to all animals. Recently got 2 rabbits who were dumped and new experience. Amazing to love such small creatures
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have been lucky to spend my life caring for them in many different ways. I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, and bunnies, so being around animals feels completely natural to me. I currently work at an animal shelter, where I care for pets with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and needs. This experience has taught me how to read animal behavior, stay calm in new situations, and provide patient, compassionate care, especially for pets who may be shy, nervous, or adjusting to a new environment. In addition to shelter work, I’ve also worked at a doggy daycare, gaining hands-on experience with group play, structured routines, and safe supervision. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm presence, I tailor my care to what makes them feel most comfortable and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize safety, communication, and trust. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I’m committed to giving you peace of mind, and your pet lots of love. :) Pet care fits easily into my routine, as I have a flexible schedule and am available most days between 8:30 AM and 5 PM. I plan my day around pets’ needs to ensure consistent, attentive care. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I take the time to learn each pet’s needs, preferences, and personality, from feeding schedules and walks to playtime, medication, and cuddle preferences. Because I work at an animal shelter and have experience in a doggy daycare, I’m attentive to behavior, safety, and stress signals. I provide calm, patient care and adjust my approach based on each pet’s energy level and comfort. I make sure pets get appropriate exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection. In a client’s home, I respect the space and keep everything clean and consistent. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is always to create a positive, low-stress experience and treat every pet as if they were my own.
About: I have always had dogs as a child and as an adult. I enjoy going on walks with dogs and giving them all the snuggles! I am teacher and off for the summer. I am around most days. If I am running errands it is only for a short period of time. I have a fenced in yard. I have crates if needed. I can block off sections of the house. I have a 2.5 year old yellow lab to keep your furr baby entertained. I have lots of doggy toys for entertainment as well.
About: Hello! My name is Amanda. In addition to owning and fostering animals, I have also gained an abundance of experience in animal shelter work, veterinary assistant, and wildlife rehabilitation. I now only have one dog named Ben— he’s an old man and is very mellow. As a pet owner, I understand that sometimes life gets busy and we worry about our fur children at home. I would love to be there for you and your pet! I have worked with all sizes and breeds, and many different temperaments. If your dog or cat hasn’t special needs, I would be happy to accommodate for them. If your pet is generally on the anxious/ reactive side, I am still very much willing to work with them! I am very flexible and engaging, and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask. I currently run my own business, so I have a great deal of flexibility and time to give lots of playtime, love, and attention to your baby. We have a large, 1 acre yard that is currently unfenced, but it is our plan to soon put one up. To keep your pets safe when going outback, we will always keep them on a leash and get their energy out by running or walking down the garden paths on the property! We live in a quiet farming community, so there is plenty of space for your fur baby to enjoy, play and relax. My favorite thing to do with the dogs is walk them out back, lay on a blanket in the grass, enjoy the sun and the views (we love to watch the neighbor’s goats). Indoors, we have 3 cozy rooms and a living room with a dog couch, as well as comfy places to rest all around the home. There is plenty of space to make accommodations for pets with special needs.
About: I’ve been an animal rescuer since childhood, and have raised my children (12-20) to do the same. My most recent official role in animal care and rescue has been via fostering dogs and cats through the Morris Animal Refuge in Philadelphia. Unofficially, I have been a proud dog mama for 11 years, and cat mama off and on since childhood. My resident doggo Patches is a proud foster father, and is comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages. If you have a pup or cat that could use a cuddle buddy while you are away, Patches is your guy. I am comfortable with and have experience in caring for cats, dogs, small mammals, birds, and small reptiles. I do have a particular aversion to cricket feeding, but we can make it work with super worms lol I do not know much about fish or amphibian care, but I am open to learning. I am a stay at home parent with my youngest children entering middle and high school, so my schedule is fairly open. I’m looking for furry friends to hang out with while I’m home during the day. It’s gets a little lonely in here 😊 I unfortunately do have a disability that impacts the right side of my body. Because of this, I am nervous about larger dogs that jump often (not just excited hellos), or who have strong prey drives and could potentially drag me on a walk. My dog Patches (50lbs) is walked with a gentle lead harness to keep things safe for both of us. I can handle dogs his size - or a bit larger - who do not jump, or who are low energy and would prefer to hang in the backyard rather than taking longer walks. I care for all animals as I would a human family member. I am comfortable with normal day to day care, as well as those who require special needs. I try to be very respectful of the personality of each pet. Some animals are nervous at first, and I’d like to respect their need for space and/or time to warm up to me. Other animals are excited to have a brand new friend, and I am too! Basically, I try to match the energy of who I am hanging out with.
About: I am experienced with geriatric dogs, dogs who need medicines and young puppies. Also willing to work with healthy dogs. Compassionate and local to Media, PA. I am a parent and an owner of a rescue dog from Providence Animal Shelter (formerly Delco SPCA). I can care for your cats and small mammals also. I am also a working mom of a teen and seeking a more flexible schedule so that I can accommodate the school day schedule. Many jobs do not allow you to leave at 3 PM to "meet the bus". I look forward to meeting you and your pets. I treat them like family. Aromatherapy Practitioner, Project Manager, Busy, working mom, Pet lover, dog lover, patient, kind, senior dog specialist. Thank you.
“I'm grateful we found Vanda! I worry about taking my dog to daycare because he's young, energetic and big, and can be too much for some people and some dogs. He's my big baby! But Vanda's got a great understanding of dog behavior and knowing what they need at different moments of the day. When to let them play and when to give them space/rest. I appreciate her clear communication and the photos/videos she sent me throughout the day. Nami had fun and we'll be back for sure.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently have two of my own, so caring for pets comes naturally to me. I’m patient with young dogs, attentive with older pets, and make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and care. As a college student with a flexible schedule, I’m able to spend quality time with pets instead of just stopping by quickly. I also have a fenced-in backyard and two friendly small dogs that can keep your pet company if they enjoy being around other dogs. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule and would love to help care for your pet any day of the week, whenever you need.

About: I’ve had a connection with animals for as long as I can remember. They are a passion of mine that I’ve always been committed to pursuing either as a career or meaningful pastime. I have 15 years of experience with pets belonging to family, friends, my lovely clients here on Rover and my very own. I’ve spent time with all different kinds of breeds from tiny chihuahuas to large and lovable pits. I love to stay active and occupied, so no worries if you have an energetic pup who loves to play. Whatever your fur baby needs, I’m here to provide it. My goal is to build their trust, make them feel safe and offer a true “home away from home” experience. I’m very flexible and always willing to work with any schedule as long as communication stays open, and I will make sure to keep you updated with photos and videos throughout their stay. my schedule is open and flexible, giving me plenty of time to engage with your pups and provide them with enough company and attention. I am available for sitting on both weekdays and weekends. the area in which I reside has plenty of property for your pup to play in, and my own little chihuahua-mix will have no problem showing yours around and making them feel right at home. I give treats, praises, quality time, and hygienic care while away.

About: How I can be your pets next favorite friend is my strong background in working with dogs, especially when it comes to basic training like sit, stay, lay down, etc. to even teaching some fun, playful tricks! I focus on making every visit engaging and positive to help reinforce good behavior while keeping your dog happy and active. While dogs are my specialty, I’m always happy to care for cats too with the same level of love, patience, and attention. Taking care of animals is a big part of my everyday life. I’ve got a dog of my own, so things like walks, training, and playtime are already part of my routine. I genuinely love being around animals, and I’m hoping to turn that passion into a full-time career one day. Pet sitting, or even just being around animals gives me a chance to do what I enjoy while gaining more experience with different personalities and needs. I treat every pet like they’re my own! I’m happy to care for your pet in my home, where there’s plenty of room to play and relax. I have both a front and back yard for outdoor time, and while they aren’t fenced, I always use heavy-duty tethers and stay close by to keep things safe. Inside, there’s lots of cozy space and available crate room if your pet is used to having their own spot. Your pet will also have the chance to hang out with my own small, friendly dog if they enjoy some company! I make sure every pet feels at home, gets lots of attention, and stays on their usual routine as much as possible. When caring for your pet at your home, I’ll always follow your instructions and any special routines to make sure your pet feels comfortable and at ease. I’m happy to stick to their usual schedule and habits so they experience as little disruption as possible. Plus, I bring extra pet supplies with me whether it’s toys, bowls, or anything else needed to ensure your pet has everything they need while you’re away.
“Ian is great! He jumped in last minute and saved us from a bind that we were in. He took care of our puppy the next day after we met which was a huge help! I highly recommend Ian for any of your pet needs”
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been caring for my own pets and my neighbors’ pets since I was a kid. I’m a certified veterinary technician and currently work at a doggy daycare, where I’ve spent over two years giving dogs lots of love and personalized care.

I’m available for drop-ins and walks Monday through Thursday after 7pm, Fridays and Saturdays all day, and Sundays before 12 and after 5. I care for both cats and dogs with safety, patience, and respect for their individual needs. I always follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, medications, walks, playtime, and litter box or potty schedules. For dogs, I focus on leash handling, safe play, and proper supervision. For cats, I prioritize a calm environment, clean litter boxes, and playing if they’d like. I keep pets in safe, clean spaces, respect your home, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and have a lot of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities!! At home I’ve got a sweet tabby cat, a very energetic 100 lb Labrador, and two small but loud and cuddly Chiweenies🤣🤣so I’m used to everything from high-energy dogs to relaxed cats, and both big and small breeds.

I always follow your instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I treat every home with respect, keep doors secured, monitor pets carefully, and do my best to provide a clean, calm environment where they can relax and feel completely at ease.
“This was my first time getting a dog walker and was really worried as I have a strong reactive pitbull mix. But Katryna did great and I would recommend. She did multiple walks a day for four days and took good care of my dog. She was also very communicative throughout.”
“Alexandra has been wonderful with Remi. They have adjusted well to each other. Remi looks forward to her walk and it has helped her be more calmer. Would recommend Alexandra to anyone considering a Dog Walker, pet sitting. Etc….we will be using her for pet sitting for our next trip. 💕”

About: I am new to Rover. Ask me about my specials/Discounts for new clients! Hi, my name is Kristina! I know leaving your pet home alone can be a very stressful time for you and your pet. Knowing your pet is in good hands while you're away is important to ease your mind and ensure your pets health and safety. Here is a little background information regarding my experience in the pet care industry to help reduce the stress of leaving your pet. As a child I was raised with a household of pets from dogs to cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, turtles and fish and more! I am currently a dog mom to a Chihuahua/Miniature Pinscher Mix name Charlotte who has a history of separation anxiety. Outside of my personal household, I have over 15 years' experience as a private pet sitter for dogs and cats as well as a dog walker. I have over 5 years' experience in a dog and cat boarding and training facility. I have experience with horses as a rider, farm hand and lead (line) trainer. I have worked with elderly, animals with medical needs and blind and deaf animals. I am a Pediatric Nurse and looking to supplement my income. I may have minimal availability for early morning and late nights. Please ask if you have any questions about my availability. I am available for drop ins and walks. I am available for early mornings (as early as 0500) or after hours. If you do not see availability for certain dates, please reach out to me with special requests. I am currently working as a nurse and frequently have availability during the week and some weekends. Leaving your pet can be stressful! I have experience with separation anxiety and will do my best to accommodate your pets needs while you are away. If your pet needs extra treats, has a favorite TV show or music they like, let me know! I will care for your pet like they are my own. I offer walks, drop ins, playtime and scratches and more! Anything your pet needs! You will receive a photo of your pet during this time!

Because I work at an animal shelter and have experience in a doggy daycare, I’m attentive to behavior, safety, and stress signals. I provide calm, patient care and adjust my approach based on each pet’s energy level and comfort. I make sure pets get appropriate exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection. In a client’s home, I respect the space and keep everything clean and consistent. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is always to create a positive, low-stress experience and treat every pet as if they were my own.
“Tricia was awesome with our dog, Miles. She treated him like her own pup and kept us updated on how he was doing. It was very comforting g to know that someone like Tricia was taking care of Miles while we were away a few days. We will be booking her again!”
About: Life long animal lover I've taken care of many different kinds of pets! I had a frog growing up, fish, cats, dogs, and I've helped pet sit numerous times for a friend for his goat, chickens, turtle, geese, turkeys, ducks, and dogs (puppies, adult dogs and a senior dog with medications who needed extra tlc). I also work here and there at a local horse farm feeding and cleaning stalls as well as turning 45+ horses out to pasture. I'm used to handling strong pulling animals (I like to think being able to handle an antsy 1200+ lb animal prepares me for most anything haha), and my own strong pulling dog so I'm well versed to handling eager dogs on walks. I've been able to administer medications to senior dogs, my own dog needed 5 different medicines for a few weeks during heartworm treatment and my cat currently is transitioning to a prescription urinary diet so I know a few tricks to getting medicine to them as well as doling out special meals. I'm currently switching to working 2 part time jobs 7 days a week to only working 1 of those jobs maybe 2-3 days a week so I'm looking to fill my time with taking care of your furry best friends and probably working more at the horse farm too. My schedule for work is made at least a month in advance and I don't work weekends since I work for a dental office so I have some free time to do this now. Looking to walk your dog, drop in on your cats/dogs while you're away and maybe open to short overnight stays in your home if I can arrange for my own doggie to be taken care of because he gets really lonely and upset if I'm not home at night, otherwise I'd have it on my profile that I was available for that too. I will follow your every instruction and request for taking care of your pet in your home, I can crate you dog and handle letting them out, making sure they don't get off leash or out of your fenced in yard and make sure your cat doesn't slip out the doorway when I come in. I have some sneaky pets myself sometimes and I feel I've become a master at outsmarting even the sneakiest pet. I'll make sure your pets have plenty of fresh water, the right amount of food, nothing is left out for them to get into or chew up, and cleaned litterboxes! I believe in treating your pet like my own and providing the utmost care and respect for both them and your home.
About: I have always had dogs as a child and as an adult. I enjoy going on walks with dogs and giving them all the snuggles! I am teacher and off for the summer. I am around most days. If I am running errands it is only for a short period of time. I have a fenced in yard. I have crates if needed. I can block off sections of the house. I have a 2.5 year old yellow lab to keep your furr baby entertained. I have lots of doggy toys for entertainment as well.
“Katie was very responsive. She came on time, was reliable and treated my dog very well. He loved her. I felt very safe with her and will definitely use her in the future.”
“I can’t recommend Simone enough! She put me at ease while I was working a 24-hour shift at the hospital, with great communication about how she and Calvin were getting along. Calvin can be nervous around people new to him, but Simone was great with him and allowed him to warm up to her at his speed :) I look forward to having Simone watch Calvin much more this winter. She even managed to capture sweet photos of Calvin; he’s never as photogenic for me! ☺️. Thank you Simone for taking such great care of my main squeeze.”
“I can't thank Sam enough for the amazing communication and great care he takes of Meilah when he comes to let her out. My neighbors say he is great allowing her to sniff around and go potty. She is always very relaxed when we get home from work.”
“Camryn did an amazing job with Rocco, she was very professional while also taking great care of my puppy. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone to take care of their dog!”

“I just moved to the area and needed a sitter while traveling on business. I have a senior dog with Cushings disease and cancer. It killed me to leave her for a few days. But Ceinwen did a great job caring for her, and it wasn’t long until I could tell she felt right at home.”
“Amanda was very accommodating and helpful with our last minute request to take care of our dog for two weeks. She sent us pictures and gave us updates while we were away. Amanda treated our fury best friend like her own. We are very thankful for the care she gave our sweet Charlie. Thanks Amanda!”
“We are so lucky to have found Coleen! She has a great understanding of dog behavior. She put us at ease during an initial phone call and at the meet & greet. She even took extra time to talk with our children who were nervous for our dog's first 'sleepover' and answer any questions they had. We left our 3 year old pit mix with her overnight and we got plenty of pictures. Seems like she enjoyed her time with the whole family (including the family dog). We'll be using Coleen again at the end of the month for our week long vacation.”
“Anita was very agreeable when arranging drop-off and pick-up. She was very kind to Sienna in trying to make her feel comfortable in a strange environment. Anita texted and sent a picture daily to let us know how she was doing, she treated her like a member of the family and it made us feel at ease while we were away. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her to watch our dog again”
“Carole was great! She responded quickly and sent lots of pictures. My pup definitely enjoyed himself! He came home well cared for and tired from all the play. He got along well with her dog Zoey. Even though Carole is 45 plus minutes away from me, I will definitely make that drive again so she can watch my dog.”
“Theresa took such good care of our two senior weimaraners---it was a short stay (this time), but they came home happy and well cared for. Theresa was very careful to completely understand the dogs' needs (diets, outdoor breaks, exercise, etc.) and was very accommodating for their 2 large beds. (She even slept with them downstairs that night rather than wake them to head upstairs!) We will not hesitate to arrange for her to care for them again; I think they miss Louie!”
“Amanda was fantastic!! She was so excited to take care of my dog and I immediately felt comfortable leaving Penny in her care. She was attentive and responsive and I can tell that she took care of her just as we would have in our own home. I would highly recommend her and will certainly be using her again.”
“Olive was extremely responsive to my messages and shared photos of Charlotte's stay while we were away. Her property, with its fenced in yard, was very conducive to allowing Charlotte to run around and lazily sunbathe. Olive followed all care instructions I provided, and I am fully satisfied with the visit.”

“Becky is an amazing and caring sitter! She administered oral medication to our cat with ease, was able to introduce him to her cat, and provided insightful feedback on his temperament and needs. Rest assured your fur baby will be in good hands - I can’t oversell our experience nor recommend her enough.❤️❤️❤️”
“Becky was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our pet and made the entire experience stress-free. She was reliable, communicative, and sent regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from every interaction that Becky genuinely loves animals and treats them as if they were her own. Our pet was happy, comfortable, and well cared for, and we came home knowing they had been in excellent hands. Becky went above and beyond, and we couldn't have asked for a better sitter. We highly recommend Becky to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

About: I have been neighbor hood babysitter and pet sitter since I was 8 years old. Always be responsible and trustworthy. Treat your property and pets as if they were my own. Animals can't speak for themselves so we must be their voice. I work for myself and have flexible schedule. My business is slow right now an I love animals so it will help me cope an offer best care for those who want the best for their loved pets! Animals are the world to me wish I could have more but I rent. I am allowed to have animals over for few days at a time as long as it's not permanent. Perfect for everyone as your pets will be loved as much if not more then expected. I am a serious animal lover and the care I provide will be noticed. Sometimes people say their dogs not friendly yet ends up loving me regardless of what they say or have experienced with other. Kinda like snow white when it comes to all animals. Recently got 2 rabbits who were dumped and new experience. Amazing to love such small creatures
“Andrew and Jacklynn are the absolute best!! They took such great care of our dog while we were away and provided daily updates and photos!! Can’t wait to use them again!”
“Kim was amazing! She took our reservation last minute. Took great care of Nixon and welcomed him into her home! We got the best pictures and video of Nixon enjoying himself! It really was a vacation for him, he slept the entire next day from having too much fun! This was our first time using dogvacay or anything like this and we are impressed. Highly highly recommended!”
“Audrey and Dan provided my 2 energetic labs with an stress-free, fun and loving environment while we were away. Our one lab is a rescue and can become quite anxious; Audrey and her family are very familiar with how fragile a rescue dog can sometimes be and they did a wonderful job helping him to be comfortable in their home, relax and have fun. You can tell right away that they love dogs!”
“Had Athena with Allen and Anne Maria while I was traveling. Had the meet and great and that went well.Athena had fun and loved running in the yard, and playing with their dog. I highly recommend and will return.”
