“Winnie's stay with Rosa could not have gone any better. We were a little apprehensive at first because we were afraid Winnie wouldn't feel comfortable, but our worries proved to be just that....merely worries. Rosa was very considerate to Winnie's needs and her feelings. She was also very considerate with us by sending us pictures multiple times a day as well as keeping an open line of constant communication. She was very comforting as well as very professional. We really could not have asked for a better family to watch our Winnie. We would recommend them to anyone.”

Laura invited us to a meet and greet at her home before we left and she is the type of person that when you meet her and have a conversation, you feel like you’ve been friends for years! She took very good care of Baby and sent us texts with pics the whole time we were gone! I highly recommend her and I was thrilled when she said she would watch her again!”

“Beth has been incredibly loving and patient to my 2 cats when we were away from home. We enjoyed our vacation knowing that Beth stayed in with my 2 cats to take care of them. She treated my cats as if they were hers, provided them with utmost care, and spoiled them. She even let them use her own ipad so my cats could play the mice hunt in her ipad. She would update me everything whether they are sad, or not feeling well. But, she would reassure me that she would do her best to make them comfortable and eat and drink. I am now at ease that I found an amazing and trustworthy sitter if I have planned vacations next time.”
“I can't recommend Megan highly enough, she's incredibly reliable and trustworthy! My two fur babies, normally very wary of strangers, absolutely love her. She sent thoughtful daily updates and photos while we were away, and replied to messages super quickly! Thank you, Megan, I'm so relieved to have found someone I can truly trust with my fur babies!”

About: I've had several dogs growing up into adulthood. I currently am employed as an EMT full-time 2 days a week, and a dog dad. My job allows me to see various dog behaviors, and how to deal with animals when they are stressed or in distress. As an animal lover myself, I know how hard it is to leave your loved one behind while away. I am trustworthy, respectful, and responsible; with credible references. I am currently looking to sit/walk during my off-time which happens to be about 5 days out of the week. I would be available anytime: morning, noon, or night. I have a larger dog named Bear. His name speaks for itself! He is 100 pounds of pure love for anything he sees. Bear is special and will give your pet space if need be. His previous best friend was a 6 pound Chihuahua! I have a small backyard if need be, but usually I will walk around town with a bag for cleanup.
About: I have always had pets since i was a little girl and continue to care for animals. I have one handsome dog. Please reach out if interested! Available anytime and any day during the week. Let me know your needs and we will work out a schedule for your precious puppy or furry animal! I do not have a fenced in yrd. I have one animal at home who is crate trained and goes on a leash to go to the bathroom or outdoor activities
“I am very particular with my pup and her safety and I never feel nervous bringing her to Megan's place. She exercises her well and having other pups around helps to socialize my pup! Megan is top notch when it comes to help with training as well! She stays familiar with the rules I have for my dog and makes sure my dog is following the same rules in her home. Since my dog has been taken care of by Megan, she has learned how to walk better on a leash, learned new tricks and also reacts better with other dogs. Megan is extremely knowledgeable about dogs. This is the best doggy daycare I could ask for, perfect for any pup that doesn't want to be left at home, wants to learn new tricks, needs some or a lot of exercise, needs socialization with other dogs, needs some mind stimulation and much more. For all that Megan does, this doggy daycare is an absolute steal for the price!!”
“Highly recommend Jill and Scott's doggy daycare experience. My 7 year old Frenchie thoroughly enjoyed her stay on two different days while we were visiting Bucknell University for my daughter's graduation. Jill was flexible, warm, knowledgeable and reassuring. We had a brief meet and greet with her Doodle at drop off the first day, and Sawyer was relaxed and happy at pick up. On the second visit, Sawyer eagerly ran right inside! Thank you for making our college graduation stress-free and fun for our pup! 😊”
About: I’m a proud dog mom to a Mini Goldendoodle who turns 2 on June 28. She’s the sweetest, friendliest little girl and truly a part of my family. Spending every day with her has taught me so much about the love, patience, and attention that dogs need to feel happy and secure. I’ve always had a soft spot for animals, and I genuinely enjoy being around them. Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, sticking to their routine, giving extra cuddles, or just keeping them company, I love making pets feel comfortable and cared for while their families are away. What sets me apart is that I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I know my dog is my baby, and I treat every pet with that same level of love, kindness, and care. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and right at home with me. I’ll also send plenty of updates and photos because I know how reassuring it is to see your furry family member happy and having fun Pet care fits easily into my routine because I already spend my days caring for my own dog. Adding another dog to the mix doesn't feel like work to me, it's something I genuinely enjoy. I'm used to daily walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and all the little things that come with being a dog parent. Your pet's safety and comfort will always be my priority. I understand that every pet is different, and I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. In my home, pets will have a clean, safe environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision. I make sure doors and gates are secure and never leave pets unattended in situations that could put them at risk.
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, reptiles, and rodents. I lived on a farm for years with cows, chickens, turkeys, and quail! Big or small, scaley or fluffy, I love all animals and will give them the respect and care they need. 150lb newfy who wants head pats and to drool on me? Absolutely! 6lb 20 year old cat who wants to yell at me and avoid eye contact? Say less. I've dealt with epileptic dogs, bladder stones in cats, and even beakless chickens. I'm up for any challenge! As someone lucky enough to work from home, I can position my job around your pet schedule. Weather I bring my laptop and snuggle up with your pup for the afternoon, take lunch and take a walk with your pooch, or stop in in the evening after my shift to give your cat head kisses. I'm flexible and willing to work with you. Whatever your pets need, I'm your gal. I had 6 dogs growing up and like to think I know how to read them. Your pets safety and your trust in me are my top priority. As an overbearing cat mom, I know just how important your pets are to your family.

About: I love dogs! Over the last 15 years I have fostered over 90 dogs and have owned 7 myself. I currently have 2 pups living with my husband and I. I enjoy loving on them and giving them an amazing life. Dogs have always been a vital part of my life and being able to provide a safe loving environment for other people's dogs makes my heart happy. My husband and I both work from home and are home bodies. Someone is home 96% of the time. I can provide frequent potty breaks and accommodate any schedule your pup is on. I have a small fenced yard and 2 fur kids to n keep your dog company. We can go on walks, always on leash. And best of all inclusive offer lots of love and attention to your pup. I will provide pics and videos of your pets.care and time with me.
“Jill was awesome while watching my golden, Bailey! She also gave updates throughout Bailey's stay with texts & pictures. Definitely recommend if looking for a dog sitter!”
About: I have been passionate about the care of animals ever since I was a child. I’ve owned 4 dogs of my own and would love the opportunity to care for your fur baby. I now have the time and space to offer my home and large, fenced-in yard to dog sitting services for your dog’s needs. Pet care is fully integrated into my daily routine. I work full-time from home, so I’m able to provide constant supervision, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. My own dog, Kip, is part of a consistent schedule that includes two to three walks daily, outdoor time in our large fenced-in yard, playtime, and downtime for rest and cuddles. Because I’m home all day, dogs in my care are never left alone for long periods and are able to maintain a routine similar to what they’re used to at home. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that means extra exercise, quiet companionship, or structured routines, and I enjoy making pet care a central part of my day rather than something I have to fit in around other commitments. When caring for dogs in my home, I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment where they’re treated like part of the family. Because I work full-time from home, dogs in my care receive 24/7 supervision, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I follow each dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walk routines, and any special instructions provided by the owner. Dogs enjoy two to three daily walks, outdoor time in my large, fully fenced-in yard, and plenty of playtime, enrichment, and affection. I pay close attention to each dog’s comfort, behavior, and energy level to ensure they feel secure and relaxed. My home is calm, dog-friendly, and well-suited for providing consistent care, whether a dog loves active play or prefers a quieter, more relaxed environment. Safety, communication, and individualized care are always my top priorities, and my goal is to make every dog feel at home while their owner is away.
“This was our first time using Marian as a Rover sitter. She allowed me into her home to view the areas my dogs would be kept. It was a beautiful space and I didn't hesitate to leave them in her good hands. Within an HOUR or two of drop-off - we had an unexpected situation when one of our dogs became very stressed and sick due to the new environment. Marian kept me informed right away, was incredibly patient and compassionate and worked with me to come up with the best solution for my dogs. She even transported them to our home and transitioned our booking to drop in visits - which I so appreciated. She was kind, flexible, understanding - even after my dog had multiple accidents in her home - which had never happened before. She reassured us that she was a professional and used to these situations. We were able to proceed with our booked getaway ONLY because of Marians professionalism and kindness and flexibility. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and professional sitter.”
About: I’m a proud dog mom to a Mini Goldendoodle who turns 2 on June 28. She’s the sweetest, friendliest little girl and truly a part of my family. Spending every day with her has taught me so much about the love, patience, and attention that dogs need to feel happy and secure. I’ve always had a soft spot for animals, and I genuinely enjoy being around them. Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, sticking to their routine, giving extra cuddles, or just keeping them company, I love making pets feel comfortable and cared for while their families are away. What sets me apart is that I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I know my dog is my baby, and I treat every pet with that same level of love, kindness, and care. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and right at home with me. I’ll also send plenty of updates and photos because I know how reassuring it is to see your furry family member happy and having fun Pet care fits easily into my routine because I already spend my days caring for my own dog. Adding another dog to the mix doesn't feel like work to me, it's something I genuinely enjoy. I'm used to daily walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and all the little things that come with being a dog parent. Your pet's safety and comfort will always be my priority. I understand that every pet is different, and I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. In my home, pets will have a clean, safe environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision. I make sure doors and gates are secure and never leave pets unattended in situations that could put them at risk.
“So my dog stayed for the first time this past weekend. He was well taken care of and I got daily photos and updates on him. I already booked another boarding with her for both of my dogs. I love the pick up and drop off service. It’s so convenient when you’re traveling to not have to worry about dropping your pets off or picking them up after a vacation. This is a great addition to her services.”
“I was able to thoroughly relax and enjoy my own vacation knowing that Maggie was loved, well care for, and had other dogs to play with. I will definitely keep this service and Kristen M. in my contacts for all my future needs.”
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, reptiles, and rodents. I lived on a farm for years with cows, chickens, turkeys, and quail! Big or small, scaley or fluffy, I love all animals and will give them the respect and care they need. 150lb newfy who wants head pats and to drool on me? Absolutely! 6lb 20 year old cat who wants to yell at me and avoid eye contact? Say less. I've dealt with epileptic dogs, bladder stones in cats, and even beakless chickens. I'm up for any challenge! As someone lucky enough to work from home, I can position my job around your pet schedule. Weather I bring my laptop and snuggle up with your pup for the afternoon, take lunch and take a walk with your pooch, or stop in in the evening after my shift to give your cat head kisses. I'm flexible and willing to work with you. Whatever your pets need, I'm your gal. I had 6 dogs growing up and like to think I know how to read them. Your pets safety and your trust in me are my top priority. As an overbearing cat mom, I know just how important your pets are to your family.
