“Our dog seemed to fall in love with Kevin. We also think he came home with better manners than we left him! Kevin had good communication with us both in arranging the care and while we were away. We definitely hope to leave our dog with Kevin in the future.”
“This is the third time we have left our dog with Mandeep. Niko comes home tired and happy every time. They send photos and videos of his stay so we can actually see what he's doing. He's always roaming the yard. There's no one else we can trust more than Mandeep. Thank you!”
“Michaela took amazing care of my dog and provided daily updates. He came back so happy, and it gave me so much peace of mind to know he was in good hands. Will definitely be booking again. Thank you!!”
“Jessica and her family were amazing sitters for our Labrador "Bella!" We couldn't have asked for a nicer or kinder family to entrust our fury family member. Bella loved her time with Jessica leaving my wife and I comforted to know she was in good care! Highly recommend Jessica for any pet sitting services. She took the time to periodically send videos and photos during Bella's stay. This further secured our trust that Bella was in good hands and allowed my wife and I to enjoy our vacation. We will definitely use Jessica again!”
“Our overnight stay with Jack & Carrie went perfectly while we visited our son at Dickinson. They were very attentive to Mich and took wonderful care of him getting him settled in and keeping us updated during his stay and sending some photos. We’d love to return sometime when we are back in Carlisle -our son loved the chance to see him too.!”
“Josie and her family were absolutely fantastic. Shw truly cares about the animals she's entrusted with! She remembered the little details about our pup, Penny, and was so attentive to her needs. It was easy to tell Penny was very loved while she was there! We've already rebooked for a future trip. I cannot recommend Josie enough!”
“Daisy’s stay with Pam and Mike was perfect! Pam sent us picture and video updates every day and it was clear that Daisy felt right at home with Pam, Mike and their dogs! Would 100% rebook with them. They are truly dog lovers and will treat your dog as their own.”
“Libby Lou had a great time with Angela and Ken and their family. We would highly recommend them to anyone. Great communications and a great stay for Libby. Angela and Ken are dog owners and gave Libby Lou all the love she is use to. They kept her busy and you can tell because she was one tired little girl when we took her home and she is hard to wear down. Loved the large fenced in back yard because she could just run. We look forward to using Angela and Ken again in the future. Thanks to them for looking after Libby Lou. Linda and Bob”
“Korine and Matt were so kind and thoughtful and took amazing care of Evie! Evie can have a bit of a hard time warming up to people, but she fell in love with them so quickly! They are my first choice when coming back to visit the area! I can't thank them enough!!!!”
“Lola had a blast during her little vacation while we were out of town! We immediately felt comfortable leaving our pup with Jodi and she sent us pictures, videos, and other updates throughout Lola’s stay. We would definitely send Lola to her new friends’ house the next time we vacation!”
“Ryan took good care of Isabelle, and we were so thankful that he was able to accommodate us on a holiday. And Isabelle has a great time playing with Ryan’s dog, Charlie!”
“If you came to the reviews to see if Vasumathy is the right pet sitter for you. The answer is YES!! BOOK HER NOW!! She recommended a meet and greet before booking. Which is a great idea for you to know who will be taken care of your pet and where they will be. Vasumathy took care of my 3 month old puppy Dunkin, with short notice, for a few days while my family and I were out for some hours. She is very knowledgeable and gave us some advice on how to train our puppy as well. She updated us on how our puppy was doing through out the day. Asked questions on how to care for our little Dunkin. She is very personable and you can tell she loves animals in general. You won't go wrong with booking her. I found our future dog sitter and I couldn't be more happy. Thank you Vasumathy!!”
“Kerrie, Oren & the kids are great 👍 I have a Great Dane and 1st impressions are usually "WHOA" but they were very open and welcoming. He enjoyed his stay very much and I think he's missing them a lot. I am definitely going to use Kerrie again as a sitter. Easy going and best boarder I've used in years. Thank you, Kerrie & Oren.”
“Abigail was great! We needed a last minute sitter for our 1yr old pup for a 10 day trip and Abigail accommodated us with no problem! She was even willing to do a meet and greet before the stay. My 1yr old still has puppy like behaviors which I warned her about and she had no problem as well! My pup also loved spending time with her very friendly dog and kids! She also communicated very well with great response times. Will definitely have Abigail sit for us if needed again!”
“Carrie is an excellent communicator and very thoughtful. We got daily pics of our girls that made us laugh and feel happy for them that they were at camp Carrie. She clearly loves animals and takes great care of them.”

“Kim was exceptional to work with! She went above expectations to make my old pup happy and me not stress as much. She gave meds, let Molly do what she does best and stayed connected with me. I am grateful for her dedication and acknowledge her time away from her family. She will be on my list for future needs. 10 out of 10!!!!”

About: Hi! I’m a pet sitter with a soft spot for all creatures—furry, scaly, or spidery. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, geckos, bearded dragons, fish, guinea pigs, bunnies, chickens, and tarantulas, and I know how to handle both the basics and the more unique needs. Tattoos and piercings aside, I’m reliable, responsible, and genuinely love animals.

I’m a local college student home for summer break so I am flexible and free to meet your needs, from long-term to daily check-ins to hours of play! I am very specific with my interaction with your pets— any instructions, no matter how weird or detailed, I will follow to ensure great care for your pet.
“Paul was wonderful! We were looking for a pet sitter last minute and he came through. Followed our instructions perfectly and sent updates including photos and videos with every drop-in visit. I could tell from the videos that my cat loved having him around. Thank you, Paul!”
About: I received my Bachelor's Degree in Animal Studies from Wilson College. I was a Kennel Technician at a boarding facility as well as a doggy daycare for a few years.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Mifflintown

“So thankful to find Ryan and Michelle. They are super nice and we’re so kind to care for our standard poodle for a day while we had to rent a U-Haul and pick up some things at my mother’s house three hours away. It was great to know we left him in good hands! We hope they will take Kobi again!”
“This was the first time using Josie as a sitter. I was nervous about leaving Charli with someone that I had never met before. However, after reading her other reviews my worries lessened. Josie kept me posted throughout the day with notes and pictures which also lessened the anxiety. I hope to be using Josie as a sitter again in the near future.”
About: I am a full time stay at home mom and am excited to care for your fur babies. I have been a pet sitter for over 15 years and have experience with all kinds of domestic pets as well as farm pets. Please send me a message if you have special requests or have more than one pet. I am very accommodating to your fur babies. I am very skilled with giving medicine to dogs and cats as I have to do this with my babies. I am also able to follow your feeding instructions if you raw feed your pet. We do not have a fenced in yard (yet) so your pet will be leash walked on our 5 acre land. We also have tethering, all pets are supervised at all times. I have 3 toddlers who may accompany me when visiting or taking care of your pet. If your pet is not child friendly, I may be able to work around this. I am a full time stay at home mom and am able to add your fur baby into the mix and adjust to your schedule. 🐾 Special Note on Unneutered Dogs: If you have an intact male, please reach out prior to booking as my rate for unfixed dogs is twice my standard base rate. Because my own neutered male is reactive to unneutered males, hosting an intact dog requires intensive behavioral management. I implement a strict, highly secure rotation system to ensure the dogs are never in the same space, alongside extra cleanup measures for marking behavior. Thank you for helping me keep my home safe and organized! I have a large property and three friendly dogs to keep your fur baby occupied. I can easily crate your pet if need be. I am skilled with administration of medications.
About: With 20 years of dog sitting experience, I have a lifelong passion for caring for dogs of all ages. I started dog sitting when I was 14 and have since provided overnight and drop-in services. Having grown up with dogs, I've helped train four puppies and nannied for a family with a senior dog for four years. My experience includes administering medication and catering to the unique needs of both puppies and senior dogs and everything in between. I am dedicated to offering reliable, compassionate, and professional care for your furry friends. I have 2 boys under the age of 5 so we have a louder, high energy house! I work remotely part-time, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility each day to provide dedicated care, attention, and companionship for your furry friend. When caring for pets, I prioritize safety and well-being. Dogs are always taken out on a leash to ensure their safety. I assume all dogs are not friendly unless told otherwise, ensuring a cautious and respectful approach to each new dog. I am knowledgeable about foods that are toxic to dogs and take great care to prevent them from consuming anything harmful. I believe strongly in positive reinforcement, rewarding good behavior rather than punishing the bad, to foster a trusting and happy relationship with the dogs I care for.
“Katie and her family took Rainy in as she was there own. They are very friendly and thoughtful and kept me updated throughout the day and what Rainy was doing and sent me photos. I felt very comfortable leaving Rainy with Katie.”
About: Hello! Justin and I have both had all types of pets our entire lives. Dogs, cats, birds, fish and even a few reptiles! Justin is the son of a veterinarian and has had experience with many types of animals. Our daughters have never not shared a home with a furry best friend and are both nurturing animal lovers. We currently share our home with a very lovable hound mix pup (Finn) that we adopted from a local rescue at 4 months old. We also adopted an adult rescue kitty (Lewis) in the spring of 2022. Lewis and Finn are best buddies! Finn’s mission in life is to befriend everyone he meets, especially dogs!! He’d love to be your pups BFF while staying in our home. We have a gated deck that leads to a fenced in pup play area to safely and leisurely enjoy the fresh air and sunshine on nice days. We enjoy taking frequent walks in our very low traffic rural neighborhood. Our family would love to provide your pup with a loving, safe retreat while you enjoy a guilt free getaway knowing your best friend is being well taken care of and treated like part of the family. Caring for pets is my full time job so I can accommodate your pups needs and give him lots of attention throughout the day and night. I am the primary care giver and Justin fills in when I need to run an errand or have an appointment. Our home is very puppy proofed because our doggy can be mischievous. Our kitty has full run of the lower level of our home but he does come up and interact with everyone.
“I am lucky to have had Vasumathy help me with pup-care. The pics and video Vasu sent me Day #1 showed me a happy dog. Day #2 confirmed it. My little guy was making his trademark excited noises from the car as we approached Vasu's house. Care included indoor play with toys, nice long walks, birdwatching from the window, visits upstairs with Vasu's husband, and, of course, meals and treats. TY so much Vasu (and Rajesh) for giving Bodhi such terrific care while I was at work. I felt totally at peace during his stay with you. :)”
“If you are in the Carlisle, PA, area, please consider using Victoria C. and her family as your sitter. It was only a half a day stay but we were able to do a meet and greet before the actual date. She was very attentive and sent pictures to us showing what he was doing. We could tell by Blaze's body language he was happy with his stay. They walked him several times in their backyard and was able to get him to play ball with them. Next time we are in town we will use them again, we highly recommend them.”
About: I have cared for my family's pets for over 30 years, I love meeting new animals and getting to know their personality! I have experience at every stage of a pet's life, from puppies and kittens to elder pets. I have experience administering mediation, caring to your pet's specific needs, assisting disabled pets, training puppies and crate training. I am dedicated to being a caring and thoughtful pet-sitter. I love animals and can't wait to meet your special friend! I currently have 1 dog and 2 cats. My dog, Zoey, is a 2-year-old puppy that I got at 12 weeks old, so my puppy training skills are fresh! I also have 2 cats, Archie and Theo, who are brother cats from the same litter. I've had them since they were kittens. Zoey grew up with the cats, so she is well trained with cats and she is very well behaved. Zoey and the cats get along with other animals very well. They are sweet, loving pets that play together and nap side-by-side. I work from home full time, so I am always at the house. I am very flexible to whatever your pet's routine is. Whatever they need, I can incorporate it into my day. At booking, I will provide a questionnaire and you can advise me of any needs or requests for your pet's routine, and I will make their routine a part of mine! In my home, I provide pets with several comfortable areas for them to lounge and sleep in, with bedding and blankets. I also provide several toys and chew toys that are usually left out for them to play with (unless requested not to). Meals are kept on schedule and any mediation or vitamins are administered on-time. Water is always filtered and clean, changed daily (or use a continuous running system). Safety is my top priority. I want to ensure that your pet has a safe and relaxing time during their stay, I will provide a separate room for your animal if needed or requested, with their own bedding and play-area. I have several rooms in the house that are not used, so I keep this space reserved for your pets. I will collect your vet information at booking and take your pet to their vet if necessary; I also am a member of the local Dauphin County Animal Hospital, which I can use if needed for emergencies. I will maintain communication with you and check-in daily with photos; I am also open to take any inquiries, if you would like to check-in on your pets.
“Heinz had SO much fun with Angela and her family! Angela was great to watch him last minute and we were so happy that she did! He is still all puppy, with lots of playful energy, and he was exhausted after a fun day with Angela! So much so he fell asleep on the way home. We will definitely be reaching out to her again for doggie sitting needs!”
About: Hi! I’m a college student at Penn state university with 4–5 years of experience caring for pets. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, bathe, walk, and love their animals like my own. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with all kinds of pets. Thank you for considering me to care for your amazing companion! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my days around my availability and make sure I have enough time to give each pet the attention, care, and playtime they need. Whether it's feeding, grooming, or just keeping a cat company, I treat it like a priority not a side task. I also stay flexible so I can adjust to each pet’s unique routine and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize creating a calm and familiar environment by following the pet’s routine as closely as possible. I pay close attention to body language and other cues to understand how the pet is feeling, and I give them the space or affection they need based on their comfort level. I know that trust takes time, especially with animals, and I’m always patient, gentle, and respectful of their boundaries. My goal is to make each pet feel safe, seen, and cared for while their family is away.

About: I have cared for animals and have had animals in my life since I was 2 years old, whether it be dogs, cats, guinea pigs, etc. I'm currently working close to full-time hours, so I will be willing to walk and care for your pet after my shift is over! I have a retractable leash and poop bags to clean up messes, so I will be very capable of making sure your dog gets a good walk!
About: I've been house sitting for friends and family since I was 12. It allowed me to supplement my income and work with the animals that I have loved since a young age. I was a vet tech in high school and during the first few summers in college, gaining small animal medicine and husbandry experience. In addition, I worked at a two different doggy day cares throughout my graduate and undergrad degrees, gaining a lot more experience with dogs and a little bit of dog training. Both of these degrees are also in animal science. I love pets of all kinds and have looked after everything from horses to dogs and cats, to birds. I am new to the area as a recent Penn State hire and don’t have established contacts for dog sitting like I did in the areas that I lived for my degrees. I work full-time but have a fair amount of flexibility to work remotely up to 3 or 4 days a week. If you have a stable wifi connection I will be more available to spend time with your pups although there may still be some days I need to be gone for work for up to 8 hours. I am willing to stay with your pets overnight if that is your preference. I will not be boarding dogs as my landlord does not allow pets. I am respectful of your home and space and treat your pets as I would my own!
About: I run a music teaching business as well as am a commercial pilot and flight instructor. I grew up with dogs my whole life (all golden retrievers) and I do a lot of pet sitting on the side for student's families. One of my own students told me about this app, so I figured it would be an awesome tool to earn extra cash to offset the cost of living, while getting to spend time with my favorite four-legged friends :) During the stay I will be using your home as “home base” and will be in and out of your house periodically during the day to care for my other drop-ins/walking clients, but the majority of my time will be dedicated to your fur family. I prefer clients with fenced-in yards or invisible fences for everyone’s safety, and one daily walk is included with every booking! One a final note, I taught my dog to sing (I swear he can match pitch), so if that's something you're interested in as well we can chat :-P **Stays of one night are subject to a minimum charge of two days**

We would definitely use her again and recommend her.”

“I cannot say enough, good things about Jarod. We had a difficult situation with travel plans, and he was extremely accommodating, and really made it easy for us. Attentive to the dog, knowledgeable, beautiful venue to have your dog stay, this is a no-brainer to book. We appreciated the pictures as well!! 12/10!!”
“Dava took such good care of Java during a week while I attended a conference in Carlisle, PA. She sent pictures every day. Also gave Java allergy meds after asking me! Dava was awesome!”
