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!!!!!”
“Leila was very nice, friendly and accomodating to our furbabies needs. Our babies didnt want to come home at all because of so much fun they are having with them. Everyday she sends pictures of updates. She was easy to communicate with and we didnt have any issues at all. We felt comfortable leaving our furbabies with her and family. We will book her again next time. Thank you Leila for taking care of our dogs. i highly recommend your service! :)”
“I cannot say enough good things about Sharon. She’s an amazingly, caring woman who took exceptional care of Pia, my 14 year-old Shih Tzu in her home. And I encourage anyone else who wants a dog sitter - who takes small dogs, only one at a time, and is genuinely interested & attentive to your fur baby’s needs - book with Sharon. Highly recommend. I already have another trip planned, & Pia will be with Sharon in her lovely ranch home & fenced yard!”

Laurie was reliable and responsible, and she kept me updated with photos and messages, making me feel at ease. My dog came home happy and well cared for. Thank you, Laurie, for your outstanding service!”
“I cannot say enough positive things about Abner. He was very communicative from the start and helped ease my anxiety about leaving my dogs with a stranger.

Abner was a delight, and I hope to have him take care of my babies again in the future.”

About: My family has owned a pet sitting business in Stroudsburg, called IOU Pet Care, for 15+ years. The first job I ever had was going to people’s homes and walking their pups for an hour, checking food and water bowls as well as litter boxes, or even staying the night there. For the past 15 years, since I was 15 years old, I’ve cared for almost every species of house pet you can think of, in just about every way that the owners needed.

About: Hi! I’m Karina, a lifelong animal lover and certified veterinary technician with professional training from SUNY Delhi. I specialize in providing calm, attentive, and knowledgeable care for cats of all ages, personalities, and medical needs. Growing up surrounded by multiple dogs, cats, and small animals, I’ve always been deeply comfortable caring for pets in busy, multi-animal households. Today, I have three cats of my own, so I truly understand feline behavior, routines, and the importance of keeping cats comfortable in their own environment while their owners are away. My cats are my babies and I know feeding routines, medications, playtime, etc. is VERY particular for some cat families and I myself am particular when it comes to my cats and their caretaking. My veterinary background gives me experience with health monitoring, medication administration, and recognizing when something doesn’t seem right. I focus on creating an stress-free experience for your cat while maintaining their normal routine, whether that means feeding, litter care, playtime, companionship, or quiet check-ins for shy cats. I treat every cat like my own and aim to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away. 🐾

“Many truly went above and beyond while caring for my cat. She sent me regular updates and pictures and even took time to play my cat's favorite game while I was gone. The temperatures in Seattle rose to dangerous levels in my absence. Mandy eased my anxiety by checking the heat level on the back of my cat's ear to make sure she wasn't overheating. I didn't know about this tactic beforehand and am grateful I could learn from her. It was a comfort knowing my cat was in such good hands.”
About: I love all animals, especially cats! I love discovering their personalities and earning their trust. I have had my own cats for 5 years, everything from litter box cleanings to hair ball tips and tricks to FIV medication administration.

I’ve worked with dogs of all ages—from energetic puppies to sweet seniors needing extra patience and support.

I’ve dealt with aggressive dogs, skittish dogs, and nervous nellies. I love dogs no matter what! Since beginning to foster, I’ve had to train many dogs, both younger and older. I’m skilled in leash training, commands (sit/lay/come), and much more. As of right now, my schedule is completely open! I am happy to accommodate to early mornings, late nights, and everything in between to fit you and your puppy’s needs! I live in the woods, far from dangerous, busy roads. I have PLENTY of room for running, playing, and walking. I have multiple walking trails behind my house, as well as a pond that my puppies love to play in. I currently have two very friendly dogs at my house, who can be separated need be via a soft gate I have in my home. I have multiple crates available if your puppy needs it. My house is full of toys, treats, and dog beds. A dog’s paradise! If not in my home, I will be sure to abide by all house rules set by my client!

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you trust, and I treat every animal like family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddles, I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I make time each day for walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets attention and companionship.

About: I’m Jenn, thanks for visiting my profile! I’ve been a dog mom for 8+ years, but caring for other people’s pets for double that. I have watched up to 6 dogs at a time in one household. I volunteer and have fostered through Brindle Buddies and Friends. My experiences with dog sitting and volunteering has exposed me to a variety of ages, stages, breeds and sizes! It’s always important to me that when caring for someone’s pets, I am honoring their usual rituals (training, feeding, etc), treating them with love and providing adequate play and exercise! My own dogs have equipped me in other ways as well having trained them both through local dog training facilities and needed to administer medication when needed. My first dog had several behavioral issues that needed constant attention. I am easy going, empathetic and honest. I am a stay-at-home mom as well as a travel agent that works from home on my own accord. I also have access to childcare some days/times of the week which can open me up to fully devote my attention to your pet. In home: I have a very large yard. My dog is contained using an invisible fence. When we host dogs (play dates or dog sitting), we use a 25+ ft tie out that is securely attached to a tree. The tie out creates an opportunity for safe, supervised play with my dog (55 lb mix, 2.5 y/o female), the ability to roam a decent amount of the yard to explore or go potty, or chill in the yard/on my deck. I also live across from a huge park with a track and several nature trails that gives me the opportunity to provide walks of varying distances. My house is two floors, with most of the living happening downstairs as upstairs we only use that space as a guest room and a fitness/gaming studio. My dog gets crated when we leave the house. If your dog is crate trained, this would be my preference for maximum safety and security but I am completely comfortable (if you are) with them having free roam or being isolated in one room; this is only for leaving the house. I would prefer for your dog to sleep where they usually sleep at home. Dog bed, in our bed, couch, crate, etc. In house, of course we will play however they like! Offering toys, bones, chasing games, etc. Whatever you're comfortable with and they enjoy. Clients' home: I will adhere to any requests and boundaries you make. I am comfortable to play, walk, feed, let out, etc.

About: My family has owned a pet sitting business in Stroudsburg, called IOU Pet Care, for 15+ years. The first job I ever had was going to people’s homes and walking their pups for an hour, checking food and water bowls as well as litter boxes, or even staying the night there. For the past 15 years, since I was 15 years old, I’ve cared for almost every species of house pet you can think of, in just about every way that the owners needed. I genuinely love animals. Playing with them, training them, caring for them, it’s such a rewarding experience for both of us. I have 4 cats and 2 dogs of my own, and they make my life so much better. I’m always building cat walls and catios, new interactive toys for the dogs, and whatever else I can do to give them all the best lives they could possibly have. When working with my family’s business, it’s always been “customized pet care needs.” I plan to stick with that. I have no allergies. I’ve cared for all ages and sizes of cats, dogs, fish, birds, hamsters, and probably a few other species that aren’t coming to mind at the moment. I can walk, hike, run, feed, clean up after, and administer some medication to a vast majority of your pets. Let me know what you’re looking for, and as long as I can do it, I will!

I have a two story duplex with a fenced in yard in a quiet and safe neighborhood. I love being outdoors and can even offer hikes after getting to know your dogs a little more. I thrive on attention to detail and can even do medication administration and body examinations.
About: I currently have 3 rescue kitties and 2 bunnies. One 4yo gray, female, tabby who I learned how to bottle feed when she was rescued at 2 weeks. I have 2 long haired gray sisters I rescued who are almost 2 yo. And I have 2 female bunnies I care for every day. I have always had a dog in my life up until 5 years ago when he sadly passed at 11 yo. One day I will adopt a dog again but until then I will gladly help take care of and spoil your fur babies. I work from home Monday - Friday and have most availability evenings, weekends and some mornings. I can be flexible with your schedule and mine. I have a fenced in front deck however I always believe in leashing before the door is open and will abide by the owners instructions

“Bodhi loved staying with Melissa and Angel! He was well taken care of and had a lot of fun with their son and the other dogs they were watching. I'd definitely reach out to them again to watch him.”
“Jahada is just wonderful! She treats my dog like one of her own. I always know he’s in good hands while he’s in her care. I highly recommend her to anyone!”
“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!!!!!”
“Dawn is very good and loving with Parcha. She gets on the floor with her and hugs and kisses her. I can tell she’s genuinely a dog lover. I do not hesitate on leaving Parcha under her care. Dawn’s home is Parcha’s home away from home.”
“I cannot say enough positive things about Abner. He was very communicative from the start and helped ease my anxiety about leaving my dogs with a stranger. Throughout my trip away, he sent photos and updates on both of my babies. My dogs came home happy and I could tell that they were on their own mini vacation over the weekend. Abner was a delight, and I hope to have him take care of my babies again in the future.”
“Johanny is super sweet and pleasant and I can tell she loves dogs. She sent me updates and pics to let me know how Scout was doing. I will be a return customer for sure!”
“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 :)”
“My Murphy was in exceptional care with Kimberly. In the photos she sent I could truly tell my baby was happy. She provided attention and love. Already planning using Kimberly in a couple months and probably even day visits beforehand. I am extremely satisfied with her service she provided.”
“I was in a last minute crunch and took a chance with Marleny. She was able to take my Sophie at a moments notice, sent photos daily, and took good care of my baby. I’ll definitely use her again!”
“David is very awesome, had a great time with my dog and my dog had a great time with him, plus he is an amazing photographer. The pictures he took and sent to me from his stay are truly beautiful. Thank you for the wonderful memories.”
“Maggie loves going to stay with Scott, which makes it much easier for us to leave her. Scott sends pictures of Maggie hanging out and looking all comfortable. I highly recommend him.”
“Joan was a great sitter for our baby, Nimer. I loved receiving daily updates on how he was doing as well as pictures and videos. We chose the boarding option, and Nimer had the best time at Joan's house, sleeping on her bed, playing in the cat tunnels, and climbing the cat trees. He also got along so well with her ferrets! Her house is free of any harmful products and is a safe space for just about any pet. Nimer will definitely be coming back when we go on our next trip. Highly recommend!”
“Cristel is amazing. She was responsive, wanted to do a video call to understand Teddy’s needs, and sent several updates for his one night stay with her in preparation for a much longer stay later this month. We are very happy to have found her because we can tell she really enjoys caring for others’ pets.”
