“Chrisie was a huge help! She is so clearly a dog person that even our shy Doodle settled in at her home with her pack. She sent photo updates so we could rest assured, and was flexible with our traveling timing. We are so appreciative and will recommend her to anyone with a small dog.”
“Adriana did a great job taking care of our two dogs for two weeks. She sent pictures multiple times per day, took the dogs for walks, and was very quick to respond to messages on Rover. Over Easter, she even set up a holiday-themed photo shoot with the dogs. We were very impressed. Her home is very clean and well taken care of. It’s set up like a professional doggy daycare, with multiple gated areas, a fully fenced backyard, an astro-turfed outdoor area, and multiple levels of locked gates outside for security. It’s the perfect setup.”
“Lennox always seems happy after his stays with Carissa and Judge and leaps out of the car as soon as we get to her house to see her and his best buddy! It’s comforting to know that he looks forward to the stays and feels comfortable going there - one less thing to worry about while traveling…..”

“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.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities for over 10 years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with energetic puppies, senior dogs, and pets that need extra patience and attention. I always make sure animals feel safe, loved, and well cared for, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I have a flexible schedule and am available for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and weekend care. I’m dependable, responsive, and committed to making sure your pets stay happy and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and caring environment and make sure pets are always supervised, exercised, and treated with patience and kindness. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special requests to keep your pet comfortable and stress-free.
“The best sitters ever. We have been sending our pups to Karen and Donald since 2019. They take excellent care of them and treat them as their own. I wouldn't want any other sitters.”
About: I've grown up with no less than 2 dogs at a time. Now I have 3 of my own and I am looking to open my home and offer my services since I am home full time!! We are always outside playing, going for walks and experiencing nature!! I would love to have the opportunity to care for other peoples animals!! The passion I have for animals could definitely be of use to many :) Let me know how I can help!! I work from home and I’m able to constantly care for my 3 pups. The more the merrier! I get up early and run the pups, feed them and let them sunbathe out back. Pets are allowed on our furniture and are treated as the family that they are. I have a fully fenced in yard, plenty of toys and puppy friends to keep your babe occupied and having the time of their lives! My dogs also have their own crates if our visitor is uneasy around our dogs.
“Eileen was great! She took care of my kitten (Charlie) for 20 days and updated me with pictures and information about him throughout his stay with her. At first she was slow to respond to my messages before taking Charlie in but was great during his stay. I would be happy to recommend her to anyone.”
“We felt very comfortable, leaving our Pet Misty with Maria and Family. We felt they immediately made her part of the family. If their services are needed, we would be happy to have to go there again.”

“Kayla was great! From the first time she stopped by to meet Luna, I felt comfortable leaving Luna in Kayla's care. She took photos to show me anything important and Luna seemed happy and healthy when I came back. I'm very happy and would definitely recommend Kayla. I will absolutely be rebooking her next time I go away.”
About: Growing up in the countryside in France, I have had pets since I was a little child. From dogs, and cats, to bunnies, turtles, chickens, and goldfish, I have taken care of different kinds of animals throughout my life. And I love it! Having animals around brings joy in my life but also in the life of my husband and my children. My husband had even more pets than me. I could almost say that he was born in a manger with animals around ;) He had many dogs, cats, sheep, and even a parrot growing up. At one point, when he was a teenager he had about 10 dogs, and 5 cats. Since we got married we have moved a lot. While living in St Maarten we had 2 cats and a turtle, and when we moved to Guyana, we had 4 dogs (without counting taking care of the 8 dogs and 1 cat from my husband's parents house). We also trained our dogs to sit and wait before eating. Our children love pets and are very caring. We came back to the US a few years ago and we have been around pets frequently from our friends house. We would love to have a dog and a cat but we like to go away as a family from time to time, and therefore we decided that we would care for other people's animals. I am a work-at-home and homeschooling mom, and my husband has his own marketing company with plenty of flexibility. We are therefore available to accommodate pets at our home for a few days to several weeks. We also have plenty of yard space to walk dogs, and a good space in our house so that any pet can find comfort. I am very flexible. I am home most of the time and my husband has a flexible schedule as well. We can accommodate pets for a few days to several weeks. We are also open to going to people's places and checking on their pets, feeding them, and walking them if needed. We usually do pet boarding which means that people bring their pets by us, but we have also done pet sitting and have gone to other people's places to care for their pets. Due to our experience and our love for animals, it is so natural for us to care for them by playing with them, feeding them at appropriate times, cleaning them if needed, hugging them if they are comfortable, even giving medication if needed, and making sure they are safe and happy overall.
“Callia was a wonderful caretaker for my cat while I was away for the weekend. She was punctual and reliable. She was also flexible to some last minute changes that really helped me out! I definately recommend her for your fur baby!”
“Logan was wonderful with our two kitties. They are very shy and skittish and Logan was patient and kind and wisely waited for them to make friends in their own time. Now they love him! He was great at keeping us informed, dependable, and helpful. He did everything we asked and spent lots of time with our pets. He even took care of some outside snow and ice for us! We will definitely request Logan again. Very happy pet parents!”
“Isabella did a wonderful job caring for our four quirky/senior cats while we traveled. She followed all instructions and went above and beyond cleaning up. The kitties were really at ease when we returned. Thank you!”
“Lori is a great sitter. Gracie (the cat) pulled her antics as normal and Lori was concerned with her well being. Thank you for the great overall concern and the cute pictures she took. Lori is in my book for future bookings. Thank you again!”
About: Having been around animals my entire life, I recognize that every pet has their own special personality. Sometimes, beautiful personalities require more attention, love, or patience than others. Every pet I have owned has been rescued in some form or another, whether from a shelter or right off of the street, and each one has brought their own challenges, but also their own beautiful ways of showing love. I have no problem with jumpy, hyper, or "mouthy" pets, or any other behaviors that might be deemed "problematic". My life with all sorts of animals has allowed me to gain valuable skills, including being comfortable around pets of all sizes and shapes, handling "pushy" behaviors, and caring for senior pets with specific health issues. Allow me to offer a loving hand when yours is not available. While I do work full-time, my schedule outside of the office and ability to travel allows me the flexibility to accommodate for any pet's needs. My number-one priority has always been safety. I've worked in professional environments with animals, such farms and shelters, and carry with me the valuable lessons I gained from those jobs.
“Look no further than Nicole!!! I’ve never used a pet sitting service before so I was apprehensive. I wanted to TRUST this person with not only my home, but my cats as well. It was a big leap for me but let me tell you, it’s been a very enjoyable experience. Nicole came over and met us well before our trip. She loved my cats and asked really great questions. While we were on our trip, she sent us updates and photos. It truly put my mind at ease knowing that she was there. I loved how she interacted with them, it wasn’t just “scoop the food, scoop the box, get outta there”. We will 100% contact Nicole in the future!”
“Eileen was great! She took care of my kitten (Charlie) for 20 days and updated me with pictures and information about him throughout his stay with her. At first she was slow to respond to my messages before taking Charlie in but was great during his stay. I would be happy to recommend her to anyone.”
About: I have been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember, having grown up in the countryside where caring for them was a natural part of daily life. My childhood was spent riding horses and sharing my home with Great Danes, pugs, and cats. For the past five years, I have provided attentive and reliable care for dogs and cats throughout the Nay Aug Park, Scranton, Clarks Summit, and Lake Ariel areas. At home, I care for my own animals on ten peaceful acres near Moscow, Pennsylvania, including an Arabian horse, five ducks, and two cats. I am deeply committed to the well-being of every animal entrusted to me and take great pride in treating them with the same love, patience, and attention as I do my own. I would be delighted to ensure your pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you are away. I work independently from home in documentary film, which allows me a highly flexible schedule throughout the mornings and daytime—one that I am confident can be tailored to meet your needs I take great care to follow each owner’s specific instructions, recognizing that every pet and household has its own unique needs. I am diligent about maintaining established routines, understanding how important consistency is for animals and their well-being.
About: I have grown up with lots of dogs from small to large! I own a dog myself, a turtle and fish! Most of my experience is with dogs but I’m a fan of all animals! Willing to care for any needs you require. I am a stay at home Mom that has lots of availability! I am available morning, afternoon and evenings! I have a car of my own to get to your pet whenever needed! I do not do any in house care. I am willing to do all of your needs at your home! Walks, feedings, cuddles, playing, etc!
“Madison took great care of our boys when we were out of town. She knew exactly how to win their trust. All instructions left for our doggies care were followed. We will definitely reach out to Madison for any future doggy sitting needs. Thank you for looking after are boys. Yoda and Panda say HI!”
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs in my neighborhood. Various tasks such as, dog sitting full time, or just taking on a short walk and feeding dinner. I’m a full time student, but I have a lot of free time in my schedule during the week and weekends. I love all dogs and work very well with them! I do not have the space to care for dogs, but I am comfortable in other owners homes, and I am very comfortable with any dog that I meet.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I was the little kid that visited the neighbors just to see their dogs. I have dog sat on many occasions. I am very detail oriented and love abiding by schedules. I do not mind the size of the dog either. The more dogs you have the better. I will gladly meet the dog(s) beforehand to see if they are comfortable with me. Other pets are also welcome too! The most animals I have watched at one time was three dogs and one cat. I am not opposed to light cleaning for the animals when necessary. Any routines you have for feeding or walking will always be followed. If you have any questions please ask me. I look forward to meeting your pets!
“Alannah was a terrific cat sitter - attentive, communicative, and caring to our pets! I appreciated her accommodating a somewhat last minute request and I came home to some happy cats :)”

“We canceled with Connie because of change of plans but offered to pay for half the chargers, but she refused saying that she wouldn’t accept any money if she didn’t perform the services. We look forward to using Connie in the future. She was very easy to deal with and very kind. Sure, she would’ve taken really good care of Cody.”
“Tara was amazing with our sweet girl Piper! She kept us updated and sent pictures and updates throughout Friday and Saturday. We could not be more pleased! Piper loved her and we will not hesitate to book her again!! 🐶♥️🐾”
“We booked last minute and Adriana was super accommodating! She responded immediately to my late night request, and the next morning, we dropped our dog Ginger off, and she settled right in and had a great time while we did some touristy things around town. Adriana is great!!! Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve always loved caring for pets and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, attentive, and careful with feeding, walking, playtime, and routines. I treat every pet like family and make sure they get the care, affection, and attention they need. Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I’m reliable, flexible, and able to plan my day around each pet’s needs. I can help with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and keeping pets comfortable while their owner is away. I always focus on safety, comfort, and trust. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, keep pets in a clean and calm environment, and make sure they are supervised, secure, and cared for with patience and kindness.
“Mary took care of my 3 year old dog for a few hours. She was very considerate, transperant and cared about my dog. I got pictures and information how it goes to my pup, they even went to park even though it was a short stay. Thank you!”

“Honestly I don't think I could find a better person to care for my baby when we aren't home. Serena seemed to have a good time and was able to relax and not be nervous. She even ate some dinner (which she usually doesn't when we aren't around).”

“Mera was wonderful with our 5-mo-old puppy (Briar)! She was very responsive and accommodating during the initial meet-and-greet and booking process, and she sent frequent photos and videos of Briar playing with Mera's dogs throughout the day. She followed our care instructions and was happy to work with our schedule. Thanks, Mera!”
About: I don't have much experience with dog care. My family briefly had a dog or two when we lived in Trinidad and Tobago for about 2 years. And my oldest brother briefly lived with a Husky. I've been surrounded by cats most of my life since I was about 15 years old and now I'm 42 years old. I plan on being the sole pet caregiver in my household for your pet(s) and I will treat your pet or dog like an extended part of the family. Whatever rules you wish for me to follow with your pet or dog I will follow and respect them. I have a deep compassion for animals and will treat your pet or dog with love and care. I'm currently a part-time home health aide or caregiver for my Autistic 14 year old son which takes place at our home. I have a family of 5 including three kids and I'm looking for a way to make extra income. We live with 4 cats who spend most of their time outdoors. We have a fenced up yard with plenty of room for your pet(s) to roam around in and play.
About: Your pup will be treated like family! I’m a dependable dog owner with experience in walks, feeding, playtime, potty routines, and basic care. I’m patient, loving, and focused on keeping every dog happy, safe, and comfortable. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I’m available on weekdays and weekends and can accommodate boarding, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I have a fenced yard for supervised play and a friendly dog for companionship. I follow each owner’s feeding, walking, medication, and crate instructions carefully
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, both growing up and as an adult. Right now I share my home with my nine-month-old golden retriever, so I'm fully in the world of puppy energy, training, and keeping curious noses out of trouble. I've also helped my mom raise several litters of Newfoundland puppies. That taught me how to handle big breeds and wiggly newborns, and how much patience and routine young dogs need. I know that every dog has its own personality, and I pay attention to what yours needs to feel comfortable and safe. I work from home, so I'm around throughout the day during the week and on weekends too. Your dog won't spend long stretches alone. Their day can include regular potty breaks, meals on your schedule, and plenty of company. If your dog enjoys being active and is up for it, I love taking dogs hiking on the trails nearby. For dogs who'd rather keep things low-key, relaxed walks and couch time work just as well. I'll follow your dog's usual routine as closely as possible. Your dog stays in my home, where they'll be treated like part of the family. I don't have a fenced yard, so every trip outside is on a leash, with no exceptions. That way your dog is always under my control and never has a chance to wander off. I live in a quiet rural area without busy roads, which makes for calm, low-stress walks. I'll introduce your dog to my golden retriever slowly and supervise their time together. I'm also happy to send photos and updates so you always know how your pup is doing.

“We had a great experience with Rochelle! She was so nice and sent many videos of our girl throughout the day! Our mind was at ease know she was comfortable with her daycare!”
“Christina was an excellent choice when we needed a dog sitter for Cassidy. We were in Pennsylvania to attend a family wake and funeral and went online to search for a dog day care. Christina was very professional when introducing our dog to her dogs - everything went very smoothly. We also received pictures during the day of Cassidy on a walk, eating dinner and laying on her bed relaxing. We knew our dog was in good hands shortly after meeting Christina just by watching her interact with our dog. All in all, having Christina take care of Cassidy was a positive experience for us and helped to make a family funeral easier to deal with, knowing our dog was safe and well taken care of. We would highly recommend anyone who is going through Milford, PA, to use Christina to take care of your dogs. Thanks, Christina for an awesome experience! Sue, Bill and Cassidy from NY”
About: As a dedicated pet sitter with a special love for large breed dogs, I bring both experience and confidence to every stay. Whether it’s a gentle giant or a high energy powerhouse, I understand the unique needs of big dogs from exercise and structure to affection and safety. Your pup will enjoy personalized care, plenty of playtime, and a calm, secure environment while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily rhythm I prioritize structure, attention, and affection in every interaction. I schedule walks, feeding, and playtime around my work from home flexibility, which allows me to give dogs consistent companionship and supervision. For large breeds especially, I make sure they get the exercise and calm leadership they need to thrive. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening wind downs, caring for dogs isn’t just a task it’s a lifestyle I genuinely enjoy. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, structure, and comfort tailored to each dog’s personality and needs. In my home, large breeds enjoy a spacious, secure environment with plenty of room to stretch out, daily walks, and calm leadership. When staying in a client’s home, I maintain their routines feeding schedules, exercise habits, and preferred commands to ensure consistency and reduce stress. I treat every dog like family, with a balance of affection and attentive care that keeps tails wagging and owners at ease.
“Talia had a great day! Her first time with Donald and Karen along with her first time away from since I rescued her in January. She had such a good time that when I arrived she was in the chair looking at me like I have to go home already. The pictures Donald sent were great to get and it warmed my heart to see how she settled in. Will definitely book again and highly recommend.”

“Kayla made my first experience using Rover great! She made me feel comfortable during our meet & greet the day before services. She was communicative and included plenty of pictures to let me know how things were going. Overall I would definitely book services with her again!”
About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life, taken care of friends dogs for extended periods of time and have three dogs of my own (one small, one medium, one large, all high energy and one is extremely anxious due to previous trauma so I have experience with timid dogs as well) I work from home full time so I am able to be quite flexible when you need me to care for your pet whether that’s morning afternoon or evening and I am available all day on weekends In my clients home I take the best care of not only their dogs but I treat their home like my own and clean up behind me or clean up after their pet while it’s in my care
“AMAZING! My dogs are picky and they absolutely adore her and look forward to her coming. Im out of town for work and hired her as a dog walker and she has gone ABOVE AND BEYOND! I will 100% be booking her again and referring her to everyone!”
About: Ever since I was little I have had an overwhelming love for all animals. No matter where I go I am constantly pointing out an animal, asking its owner more about them, and stopping to pet them! I have grown up with/had dogs my entire life. I have also been pet sitting for friends and neighbors since I was a teenager. During these years I have cared for many animals with different personalities and needs. My own dogs are definitely quirky and I understand that every dog is different and deserves personalized care. I also provide daily medications for my dogs, so I am very used to following specific routines and comfortable giving pets the extra care they may need. I will always treat your animals with love and patience, while, of course, giving them lots and lots of attention. Animals are family! My daily schedule is flexible because I am currently pursuing my Master’s Degree online, while allows me to build my schoolwork around a consistent routine. Being that I have plenty of flexibility throughout my day, this provides ample time for dog walks, playtime, feeding, and giving pets the attention and care they deserve. In every environment, I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort. I really enjoy learning about dogs and am constantly researching their behaviors and body language. I believe understanding how a dog communicates is such an important part in taking care of them. I always take the time to get to know each dog’s unique personality, energy level, and individual cues so I can better understand how they are feeling and make them comfortable around me. My dogs in my own home are truly part of the family and are very spoiled and pampered. I make sure they receive lots of attention, love, and enrichment, and I take their comfort and happiness very seriously. Caring for my own pets, for my whole life, has taught me how important it is to notice the little things and truly understand animals. When caring for pets in other people’s homes, I follow their routines and instructions closely and treat their home and belongings with the same respect I would my own. I am always mindful of keeping any doors and gates secure, providing plenty of supervision and attention, and making sure each pet gets the exercise, interaction, and care they need. My goal is for every pet I take care of to feel just as loved, comfortable, and well cared for as the animals in my own home.

About: Hello! My name is Baylor, and I've been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up with both dogs and cats. For the past four years, I've worked as a veterinary technician, giving me extensive experience caring for animals and ensuring they stay happy, healthy, and safe. My veterinary background allows me to confidently administer medications, recognize changes in behavior, and provide attentive care for pets with special needs. In addition to my clinical experience, I've been pet sitting for many of my veterinary clients over the past few years. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I am currently taking care of pets as my full-time job, allowing me to be very available and have widespread flexibility to fit your scheduling needs. I am able to care for your dog or cat in whichever way feels most comfortable for you, whether that is a puppy who needs training, walks, and crated time, or a senior cat that requires more frequent, attentive visits and a strict schedule of medication. Given my background, I am also happy to provide additional services such as baths, nail trimmings, and gland expressions when necessary.

“Another excellent walk under challenging circumstances. Even with thunderstorms and tornado watches- Lori made her way to our house to give the dogs reassurance and support. She made sure the got out for a short time to complete their “business”.”
“She completely exceeded every expectation. She was incredibly caring, attentive, and genuinely took the time to make sure my dog felt loved and comfortable. After the walk, she stayed and spent extra time with my dog simply because she cared. Then I walked into my kitchen after an exhausting day of work and discovered she had washed my dishes—something I never expected and certainly never asked her to do. That simple act of kindness spoke volumes about the kind of person she is. In a world where people often do only what’s required, she went far beyond that. She is kind, hardworking, thoughtful, and has an incredible work ethic. It’s so refreshing to see a young person with this level of integrity, compassion, and initiative. She is truly one of a kind, I cannot recommend her highly enough. She didn’t just care for my dog—she left me believing there are still genuinely exceptional people out there.”
About: Hey everybody! I hope your days, nights, and evenings are going well! My name is Peach, and I absolutely love animals and pets. I have a Mini Australian Shepard, named Calypso, who is a one year old anxiety fluff ball, who I’ve been taking on walks since she was a tiny puppy. I also have a high anxiety and post traumatic dog names Fae Belle, who has trusted me to walk her through the loud streets of our hometown. I would love to meet your wonderful pets, so they are comfortable with a new person walking them. I’m looking for summer jobs before I go off to college where I will be working with animals. However, until then I’m so exited to meet everyone. I’m currently trying to get everyone situated before I go off to college…so I am mostly free and the end on June through the middle of August. I would love to see if I can work around my schedule to accommodate walking before that time and I can do most to any day of the week. I take my dogs for walks or at least out to play at least once a day, so I’m comfortable doing either of those. We have a fenced in yard where they can roam around as well. I also feed them and give them extra snuggles when they need it.
About: I currently have 2 dogs + 4 cats! I love them and care for them like they are my babies. I always make sure I keep them stimulated and happy to ensure a healthy and loving life. I would love to care for and love your animals like my own! I am working per-diem starting in october. My schedule is changing but if you just reach out i'd be happy to share that with you! I am super flexible and can help you with anything! My dogs are very dog friendly and loving to almost all other dogs. They are very socialized to other dogs and cats. I can walk your dog, let them out, or you can drop them off at my house for daycare or meet me to exchange them as well! If your dog isn't dog friendly I would be happy to keep them separate and comfortable! I have a fence for the dogs to run around and play. I also have ties outs for the dogs as well. We live in a wooded neighborhood on a dirt road that is super quiet!

“Adriana did a great job taking care of our two dogs for two weeks. She sent pictures multiple times per day, took the dogs for walks, and was very quick to respond to messages on Rover. Over Easter, she even set up a holiday-themed photo shoot with the dogs. We were very impressed. Her home is very clean and well taken care of. It’s set up like a professional doggy daycare, with multiple gated areas, a fully fenced backyard, an astro-turfed outdoor area, and multiple levels of locked gates outside for security. It’s the perfect setup.”
“Lennox always seems happy after his stays with Carissa and Judge and leaps out of the car as soon as we get to her house to see her and his best buddy! It’s comforting to know that he looks forward to the stays and feels comfortable going there - one less thing to worry about while traveling…..”
“Rochelle & MOMS Are The Dynamic Duo, They ALWAYS Take Care OF My Boy Mello And He’s Not Easy! Highly recommend To Any Pet Lover ❤️ I Have Booked Them COUNTLESS Of Times & Again Next Month💯 As I TRAVEL A Lot With No WORRIES 👍”
“Jack & Joanne took such great care of Shelby! This was our first time leaving her overnight and we were a bit nervous. There was no reason to be nervous because they took care of her like their own.”
“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.”
“She had been amazing to my dog and met up several times. My dog adore her. She’s great taking care of my dog while I went on vacation. She really gives me peace of mind. Highly recommended. She sent me videos and pictures. Definitely will be it interesting booking with her again”

About: I've grown up with no less than 2 dogs at a time. Now I have 3 of my own and I am looking to open my home and offer my services since I am home full time!! We are always outside playing, going for walks and experiencing nature!! I would love to have the opportunity to care for other peoples animals!! The passion I have for animals could definitely be of use to many :) Let me know how I can help!! I work from home and I’m able to constantly care for my 3 pups. The more the merrier! I get up early and run the pups, feed them and let them sunbathe out back. Pets are allowed on our furniture and are treated as the family that they are. I have a fully fenced in yard, plenty of toys and puppy friends to keep your babe occupied and having the time of their lives! My dogs also have their own crates if our visitor is uneasy around our dogs.
“Jahada is an amazing sitter. She was very friendly when we met her. She even sent us photos and videos of my pup. We were very happy and woul definately have Flash sit with Jahada the next time we are in the area.”
About: I’ve grown up with pets and have experience with special needs animals, seniors and kittens/puppies. I can administer medicine and am very cognizant of a pet’s personality. For example I have a timid cat, a menace cat and a love bug cat. My Siberian husky is more cat than dog too. I can do drop ins or board dogs in my home. I can also stop by for walks. For the board ins I prefer to take in only dogs because I don’t want to stress the kitty crew out, but I’d be available to come do drop ins for the cats. My yard isn’t completely fenced so I’d probably take the doggos to the park at apple grove and for walks around town. I have three friendly cats and my husky also loves dogs.
“This was the second stay for Moose and Nutsy - Christina is fab! This time, my husband and I were traveling overseas and we were able to enjoy the trip all the more because of our complete confidence in Christina and the care she provides to our dogs. She treats them like part of the family! My dogs have fun being part of a larger pack (Christina has 2 dogs of her own) and come home very happy and healthy after their vacation :) We will definitely be booking with Christina for our next trip.”
“Mary did a great job. She sent us regular pictures and kept our energetic dog active and entertained. We picked our dog up much later in the day than we thought but Mary was very flexible w our schedule and stayed up till we arrived. I'd say she went above and beyond to take care of our pooch!”
“Very caring and very professional. I knew when I met her that my dog was in good hands. He’s never been away overnight with someone else. He handled it well because it’s obvious she loves animals and knows how to take care of them. Highly recommend.”
