“Nancy was absolutely amazing with my dog! She sent lots of pictures which I greatly appreciated. I could tell he was having a great time and was well loved and cared for. Nancy and Butch are lovely people and I highly recommend their services!!”
“Amy did a fabulous job with caring for my 2 dogs! She sent photos and updates which were very much appreciated! She’s knowledgeable about dogs so I felt super comfortable with her watching my dogs. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to all who need her services!”
“Hannah was great! Easy to book with and was very accommodating to our dogs' needs and allowed time for adjustment. I had no concerns at all that our dogs weren't perfectly cared for while with her! She sent photos and updates regularly to ensure me that everything was going well. Will definitely reach out the next time we need to board our dogs.”
“Wonderful, awesome. Amanda is a lovely caring lady, she adores animals like we do. Our fur kids had a great time and the best care whilst we were away. We had picture and updates regularly. Planning our Xmas holidays now and will be requesting Amanda for all our bookings from now on. A 10 out of 10.”
“Tucker was well adjusted when he got home, which is a good sign he was comfortable being away for us for 5 days. He also did better with dropping the ball after fetch so I think Jordan's training skills rubbed off on him too. :)”
“The experience I had boarding my Abby (golden) with Mariah was truly a great experience. You're always nervous to leave your Fur Baby with someone new. She put me at easy in the first two minutes. She loves and cared for my dog like it was her own. My baby was happy, happy to see me, but she didn't want to leave! It was funny! Thank you Mariah, I really appreciated her fitting me in like she did. Great Experience!”
“Jamie was wonderful with The Diva! Jaime sent photos every day while we were away and updated us on how Hadassah was adjusting. I would highly recommend her to care for your sweet ones. Bobbi Jo”
“Heather is always so great with our Braz! She treats him like family and sends tons of updates while we are away. She’s always so friendly and understanding. We definitely will be booking with her again!”
“Mar is great to Molly. Even when a family emergency came up and I had to extend the visit unexpectedly, Mar was super helpful and accommodating. Molly gets excited when we pull up to the house, so I know she is in good hands and has a great time when she's there.”
“Amber is truly a dog lover. Her children also love dogs and keep them entertained. We are so glad we crossed paths with her because our dogs never had a dull moment and were entertained the whole time. Amber kept us updated the whole time and sent lots of pictures. We highly recommend using her!”
“Michelle was wonderful! Diesel came back from his mini vacation extremely happy and comfortable. I call it a mini vacation because he had so much fun! Normally he can be very anxious and nervous when leaving him for an extended stay away from me, but when I picked Diesel up after his stay with Michelle, he was calm, happy, and didn't skip a beat, seeming like he didn't miss me much...which is all I could hope for from a pet sitter! I ended up needing an extra night from the original booking as well, and Michelle was more than willing to accomodate me. You can truly tell they love your babies like their own. I look forward to continuing to use her for all my future bookings! Thanks again, Michelle!”
“Kelly is great! She was communicative, caring, and even taught our Golden Retriever a few new tricks while she watched him (paws down!) I’d highly recommend her to anyone look for a dog sitter!”
“Im so thankful for Jennifer, she was able to watch my puppy last minute, she was great communicating with me throughout my puppy stay. She’s wonderful with animals and I definitely will be booking another stay with her and her family!!”

About: I've walked dogs, as well as watched them while the owners were away since I was little. I don't currently own any larger animals, but I have always handled them.

About: I used to work at an animal rescue so I’ve dealt with all kinds of dogs! What I learned from working there is that every animal is special and deserves all the love in the world. I work part-time at an elementary school. I typically work Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so my schedule any other day is wide open. I just need the client to put in the request a couple days in advance! I am a college student so I live in an apartment with three other girls. The apartment is pet friendly and we have dogs over all the time! There is no fenced in yard, but there is a beautiful, spacious yard behind the complex. As for a client’s home, I will care for the pet per the clients request!
About: I’ve owned many different species of pets my whole life and have always been gentle, caring, and passionate with them. I will be the same way with your fur babies. I currently am working part-time and usually just work weekends. Even if there are days that I work and I am needed to stop in and care for your fur babies, I will do so, no questions asked. I have 3 Guinea pigs that are in their own room with the door shut as I have 2 cats. I also have a chameleon who is in his own enclosure and where my cats cannot reach him. All of my babies are happy and healthy and I will make sure your babies stay that way as well.

About: I have had dogs and cats ever since I was 4. However, at age 12 I got my first dog just for me. I took it very serious and have loved taking care of dogs and cats ever since. I have raised a few dogs and cats of my own since they were young, some since actual birth. I have also taken care of a family dog whom was blind and deaf due to being very old. I currently can’t welcome pets into my own home, but I love caring for dogs so I wanted to still find a way to care for them! On days like now when it’s cold and everyone is busy, I have no issue walking your dog and ensuring they still get the outside experience without you worrying about their safety. I am big on giving regular updates and treating every pet as if they are my own. I’m a part time college student! Pretty much free with all online classes. I occasionally go to the gym but besides that, I’m always home. Think of it like if I’m babysitting someone’s child. It pretty much is for many dog owners, I would know as my dog Nya was very much my daughter lol. But it’s very important that I ask all the necessary questions so I can care for your pet the same way you would. If you give them treated only during certain behavior than I will too. If you only walk them in certain areas then I will too. It’s important to not only make every pet feel safe and comfortable, but to create an experience that doesn’t feel to far from home. That way not only does the pet feel happy, but once they are back to their owner it feels like they never left.
About: I have tons of experience with both cats and dogs. I have two pets of my own that i trained and take care of, a golden retriever and a cat! I am home for the summer hoping to save for college. I can promise I will be a great person to rely on to take care of your pets! I work an evening shift at my part time job throughout the week, but it is very flexible. I am open throughout the week and can work per care into my schedule very easily. I have a very friendly dog in my home and a cat that is inside and outside. When it comes to caring for your pet in my home, I will treat them as my own! My dog gets almost daily walks and is on a very consistent feeding schedule, as yours will be as well.
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was around 13, family and friends have always relied on me to watch over, feed, play with and bathe their pets! I am currently working as a casual LPN, usually consisting of two days a week. I have plenty of free time on my weekdays and weekends to take care of and play with your pets! I will be more than happy to watch your pets in your home. Unfortunately my place only allows us to have a certain number of animals, and I do have three dogs of my own.
About: I’ve rescued 2 cats in the past 2-3 years. I’ve helped train them, had experience with getting cats to feel comfortable in new spaces. I now live with 2 cats so I am comfortable with taking care and being responsible for cats.
About: My motto is that it's my responsibility to make sure that each dog under my care is HAPPY and SAFE. Every day that I'm with your pup, I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it's my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they're used to at home. I'm a huge dog lover, so making pups as happy as I can, just comes second nature for me! When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It's a great way to make sure that we're all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it's always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level to show them that I'm a welcome presence here to make friends, and I'm sure we'll be best buddies in no time at all. I know how difficult it is to be away from your best friend, so communication is the name of my game. I'll make sure to send plenty of regular updates with accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun your pup and I are having! I’m hoping to make Rover a full-time career! That’s how much I love animals! I’m very flexible with all your pet caring needs so if there’s anything I can help with, please let me know! Although I'm unable to watch your pups at my home, I'll make sure they're safe at yours! I make sure I understand the pups needs, routine, and any specific care instructions provided by you, the owner. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, ensuring their environment is safe and clean, exercising them, and administering medications or treatments if required.

I will back away from the cats if they seem angry or scared.
About: I’ve taken care of different kinds of dogs for years now. I had two of my own and know how important it is to be able to trust someone to love them like they are their own.

I have plenty of experience ranging from providing volunteer services as a child with my mother in our local SPCA to volunteering for multiple rescue groups, working with all different breeds, sizes and ages. I'm experienced with felines as well! A typical day for your "fur-baby" consists of whatever requirements you, as their parent, requests along with plenty of cuddles, play and positive re-enforcement training. Your pet will be loved as my own while in my care. At most times, I will be having my significant other, Jeremiah, accompany me as he shares my love and passion for animals and their well-being. What makes me stand out is my ability to gain trust, respect and my dedication to ensure every animal I'm given the opportunity to care for feels loved and safe. I cant wait to meet you and your beloved pets! currently, i work from home and spend the days with our border collie, Fynn and our pibble, Blaze. We live in a two story home with a decent yard and 6-8 kids running around, ready to play or cuddle. I will provide your pet with my undivided attention, care and love. I have the time for walks, play time, and cuddle time on my couch to ensure your pet feels comfortable while you're away I’m available for boarding, walks, any care during the week, available all weekend. I work from home and able to bring work with me anywhere I have two friendly male dogs, Fynn and Blaze. Fynn is 3yrs, unaltered and Blaze is about 14yrs, neutered. We do training sessions every day, take walks, and play.
“Bob and all who I spoke with were awesome! Bob was so accommodating when the day I was supposed to drop my kitten off I had work thrown on me that had to be done quickly. I was late getting Moscato there and kept having to push back the drop-off time, but he was so nice about it. My kitten had a great time there. They played with her and let her have the run of a kitten room with lots of towers and things to play with and on. They also sent me pictures of her which was really comforting because it was my first time being away from her. They provide a daily update on her activities and how she is eating, etc. It definitely helped ease my mind that she was in great hands. Fantastic stay and I will definitely use Bob again in the future for my little one! ”

About: Who can love your little ones as you do? I was licensed for child daycare in Colorado for over 10 years. We are animal lovers and guardians of two little dogs. Adults who love and understand the needs of little fur babies. We would love to get to know your special one too. Please make sure you add all of the info for the vet you use. All dogs will need to be current on vaccines and flea and tick care. Please keep in mind when you pay for one day it covers you for 24 hrs. So if you bring your baby at 6 a.m. you will be covered till 6 a.m. the following day. Any hours after that is $6.00 an hour. If you book for more than a weekend, I can be flexible (1 to 2 hrs) due to flight delays, etc. Thank you! I'm currently not working outside home so no matter what your little ones will have someone here at all times. I feed everyone seperately and we walk when weather permits. We have potty pads available for comfort in between outings. I allow access to my whole home and will enjoy a walk once a day or more weather permitting. We have a great time individually and daily with all our little ones.

About: I grew up in East Texas with 3 Bengal tigers in my front yard and a minuture potbelly pig named Bubba in our home. I currently have a Exotic Micro Bully named Gucci who loves all other animals. Your pet will be loved and safe with us. My life is Gucci and we would love to have your animal and promise to keep them safe. They will be walked and entertained. If your pet doesn't like other pets then we might not be the best fit. Gucci can handle just about anything but he is so socialized that I don't think he would defend himself even if he needed too. Please only other animals that are completely okay with other pets. We go to the Westmoreland County Dog Obodeience School once a week and will pass on all knowledge we learn to those that will let us teach them. Your pet will be loved and safe with us. My life is non stop pet care. You will have no worries of your pet being left unattended. Gucci is never left alone and neither will your pet. Lots of walks and love! If you would like your pet crated for whatever reason please provide it. We are a crate free home. I live in an apartment but it's a big one and we take lots of walks.
About: I’ve had dogs of my own since I was 12 and have house sit/walked/let out my friends and families dogs for years. I love taking care of them like they are my own as I don’t have any pets living with me now. I don’t work all summer long. I travel most weekends but am available during the week all day. I am off of work until August 1 and then my schedule doesn’t allow for much flexibility. I live in an apartment complex that is very dog friendly. There is plenty of room for dogs to use the bathroom and go for walks on the leash. I allow pets on my furniture but if that’s not what you do in your household I will implement the same rules you use. No matter how friendly your dog is, I won’t allow other dogs to approach since I don’t know many of the dogs in my complex. I do not hit dogs as a reprimand at any time so please tell me what methods you’re comfortable with me using instead if needed. Honestly, if there’s anything specific you can feel free to ask for it or question me if you need!

About: There wasn’t a time a golden retriever wasn’t apart of my family. Through a lifetime of love I’ve learned the secret language of our canine/feline companions. I have had experience caring for elderly dogs in their most vulnerable moments, I’ve dealt with the chaos of training two energetic puppies at once, and everything in between. My pet care experienced does not stop at dogs and cats, I have personal experience with rodents, rabbits, fish, bearded dragons you name it. I work part time so I have a pretty open schedule and lots of flexibility to best accommodate any clients needs. I am available all day Monday and Tuesday, and after 2 pm Wednesday-Sunday I believe that animals deserve the same respect and care as humans, if not more. With my services, you can expect meticulous attention to your pet’s needs, including preparing and serving meals according to their specific dietary requirements and schedules. To keep your pet stimulated and happy, I will engage them in physical activities and playtime tailored to their individual energy levels. Additionally I can perform light household tasks related to pet care, such as cleaning litter boxes and maintaining feeding areas. Basic grooming, including brushing and bathing as needed, is also part of my commitment to ensuring your pet’s well-being.

“I can't say enough about Carleen. She set up an appointment before our trip to meet our dog and learn her needs. She was very reliable, always on time, and provided many photos of our Samoyed. She was very trustworthy and made our vacation stress free. She kept in contact and always responded almost immediately. Carleen is very knowledgeable and took amazing care of our dog. She really went above and beyond. I would recommend her to anyone for their pet care needs!”

I am currently working as a casual LPN, usually consisting of two days a week. I have plenty of free time on my weekdays and weekends to take care of and play with your pets! I will be more than happy to watch your pets in your home. Unfortunately my place only allows us to have a certain number of animals, and I do have three dogs of my own.
About: I used to work at an animal rescue so I’ve dealt with all kinds of dogs! What I learned from working there is that every animal is special and deserves all the love in the world. I work part-time at an elementary school. I typically work Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so my schedule any other day is wide open. I just need the client to put in the request a couple days in advance! I am a college student so I live in an apartment with three other girls. The apartment is pet friendly and we have dogs over all the time! There is no fenced in yard, but there is a beautiful, spacious yard behind the complex. As for a client’s home, I will care for the pet per the clients request!
About: I have had dogs and cats ever since I was 4. However, at age 12 I got my first dog just for me. I took it very serious and have loved taking care of dogs and cats ever since. I have raised a few dogs and cats of my own since they were young, some since actual birth. I have also taken care of a family dog whom was blind and deaf due to being very old. I currently can’t welcome pets into my own home, but I love caring for dogs so I wanted to still find a way to care for them! On days like now when it’s cold and everyone is busy, I have no issue walking your dog and ensuring they still get the outside experience without you worrying about their safety. I am big on giving regular updates and treating every pet as if they are my own. I’m a part time college student! Pretty much free with all online classes. I occasionally go to the gym but besides that, I’m always home. Think of it like if I’m babysitting someone’s child. It pretty much is for many dog owners, I would know as my dog Nya was very much my daughter lol. But it’s very important that I ask all the necessary questions so I can care for your pet the same way you would. If you give them treated only during certain behavior than I will too. If you only walk them in certain areas then I will too. It’s important to not only make every pet feel safe and comfortable, but to create an experience that doesn’t feel to far from home. That way not only does the pet feel happy, but once they are back to their owner it feels like they never left.
About: I have taken care of my own dog for 10 years, giving me hands on experience with daily routines, behavior, and long term care. My friends, family, and neighbors all trust me with caring for their pets whether that be through walking, feeding, and overall care. I am reliable and attentive, making sure everyone feels safe. I am currently working a part time flexible job so it will be very easy for me to have an open schedule to care for peoples pets. I always make sure whatever pet I am around that they feel comfortable with me. I will carefully listen and understand a pets routine making sure their routine doesn’t get off track. Safety of the animal always comes first to me and making sure they feel comfortable in the situation they are in.
About: I’ve watched multiple of my family members dogs, ranging from big to little dogs. I enjoy spending time with animals and learning more about them. I also enjoy walking dogs around the neighborhood or to the park. I’m currently taking care of my grandma so I don’t really have a set schedule. So I’m always willing to help out. I have a dachshund and she is very nice towards animals and people so if I were to house sit she would also be very welcoming.
About: I've been been a kennel attendant for 6 months where I took care of dogs of all breeds. I've also learned how to administer medication to pets for different diseases I am currently unemployed so I will have plenty of time to make sure your pets are loved and cared for! I have 3 pets myself so I have plenty of experience! I've been working in the animal field for a little over a year, but have had my own pets since I was little. You can trust me with your animals because I love them as much as you do and don't want to see anything bad happen to them.

I have plenty of experience ranging from providing volunteer services as a child with my mother in our local SPCA to volunteering for multiple rescue groups, working with all different breeds, sizes and ages. I'm experienced with felines as well! A typical day for your "fur-baby" consists of whatever requirements you, as their parent, requests along with plenty of cuddles, play and positive re-enforcement training. Your pet will be loved as my own while in my care. At most times, I will be having my significant other, Jeremiah, accompany me as he shares my love and passion for animals and their well-being.

About: I’ve taken care of different kinds of dogs for years now. I had two of my own and know how important it is to be able to trust someone to love them like they are their own.

“Amy did a fabulous job with caring for my 2 dogs! She sent photos and updates which were very much appreciated! She’s knowledgeable about dogs so I felt super comfortable with her watching my dogs. Would definitely use her again and recommend her to all who need her services!”
“Hannah was great! Easy to book with and was very accommodating to our dogs' needs and allowed time for adjustment. I had no concerns at all that our dogs weren't perfectly cared for while with her! She sent photos and updates regularly to ensure me that everything was going well. Will definitely reach out the next time we need to board our dogs.”
“Tucker was well adjusted when he got home, which is a good sign he was comfortable being away for us for 5 days. He also did better with dropping the ball after fetch so I think Jordan's training skills rubbed off on him too. :)”
“The experience I had boarding my Abby (golden) with Mariah was truly a great experience. You're always nervous to leave your Fur Baby with someone new. She put me at easy in the first two minutes. She loves and cared for my dog like it was her own. My baby was happy, happy to see me, but she didn't want to leave! It was funny! Thank you Mariah, I really appreciated her fitting me in like she did. Great Experience!”
“Heather is always so great with our Braz! She treats him like family and sends tons of updates while we are away. She’s always so friendly and understanding. We definitely will be booking with her again!”
“Amber is truly a dog lover. Her children also love dogs and keep them entertained. We are so glad we crossed paths with her because our dogs never had a dull moment and were entertained the whole time. Amber kept us updated the whole time and sent lots of pictures. We highly recommend using her!”
“Michelle was wonderful! Diesel came back from his mini vacation extremely happy and comfortable. I call it a mini vacation because he had so much fun! Normally he can be very anxious and nervous when leaving him for an extended stay away from me, but when I picked Diesel up after his stay with Michelle, he was calm, happy, and didn't skip a beat, seeming like he didn't miss me much...which is all I could hope for from a pet sitter! I ended up needing an extra night from the original booking as well, and Michelle was more than willing to accomodate me. You can truly tell they love your babies like their own. I look forward to continuing to use her for all my future bookings! Thanks again, Michelle!”
“Kelly is great! She was communicative, caring, and even taught our Golden Retriever a few new tricks while she watched him (paws down!) I’d highly recommend her to anyone look for a dog sitter!”
“Im so thankful for Jennifer, she was able to watch my puppy last minute, she was great communicating with me throughout my puppy stay. She’s wonderful with animals and I definitely will be booking another stay with her and her family!!”
