“Ashley & Jerrell were exceptionally kind & thoughtful, going the extra mile to help us board our dog on short notice during an emergency. Great communication throughout shifting circumstances and they were also very patient with my elderly mother. The only downside was that our dog was crated from 6:30am to 3:30pm while they were at work, but not unexpected.”
“Krista has hosted our lab retriever, Ellie, twice. Both times were fantastic. Krista is always very easy to communicate with! She is great with dogs. It’s nice that our dog can socialize and play while she stays with Krista and her family. I also appreciate how she always has Ellie‘s things packed and ready to go when I come for pick up- it makes drop off and pick up quick and easy. We will definitely rebook with her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Wow! This was our first time ever using a service like this and Lisa knocked it out of the park caring for our baby! Was amazing with communication with lots of messages and pictures! I would use her again in a second!”
“Choosing a pet sitter can be an anxious process, especially when transitioning away from a traditional kennel or veterinary boarding facility. However, our experience with Brionna completely eliminated that stress and surpassed every expectation. From the moment we dropped off our dog, Meleys, through the very end of our vacation, Brionna maintained an exceptional line of communication. Knowing that Meleys was being cared for in a traditional, loving home environment—rather than a sterile kennel—made an immense difference in her comfort level. Because Brionna is located so close to us, the familiar neighborhood environment undoubtedly helped Meleys acclimate and settle in almost immediately. The true testament to Brionna’s care was Meleys’ disposition when we picked her up. She was relaxed, happy, and it was entirely evident that she had a thoroughly positive, nurturing experience. We were able to completely unwind on our trip knowing our dog was in such capable and attentive hands. We wholeheartedly recommend Brionna to anyone looking for premium, reliable, and compassionate dog-watching services. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”
“Holly was amazing with my girl ...she sent so many updates / pictures& hand fed my dog when she was nervous. Icing on top was that my dog was able to play with her dog who was just as amazing. 1000% recommend Holly to watch your dog.”
“Lauren and her husband took wonderful care of our dog! Lots of walks and pet beds to lounge in :) I received pictures everyday and could tell that Pretty Girl had the best care we could imagine. 5 Stars!”
“Titan really enjoyed his stay! Being a pet mother I hesitated leaving my baby with anyone but sewing how much he was taken care of in must say I was impressed. We will definitely return.”
“Jenny was wonderful. She took great care of our 2 dogs for a whole week. Our 1 dog who typically has anxiety when we're away seemed as happy as could be! We appreciated photos throughout the week!”
“Cynthia and her Husband Lance were welcoming and willing to help us out last minute. They took really good care of of dog and made him feel like home. Would 100% recommend them! Thank you again!”
“Kara provides our pup excellent care. Our dog is thrilled to arrive at Kara’s house, where she’s stayed 3X now. She loves Kara’s dog and comes home happy, with no signs of stress. We appreciate the daily pics of our pup enjoying herself with her friend Kodiak. We’re so grateful that we found Kara and hope to continue boarding our dear dog with her in the future.”
“Lauren and her family were absolutely wonderful with Mercury! She had a fantastic time staying in their beautiful home. I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. The picture of her smiling made my day! Highly recommend!”
“Sarah and her family are great! Very nice people and I could immediately tell upon meeting them that my puppy would be in good hands while i was on vacation. Sarah sent me pictures and videos of him and how he was doing the whole time and we couldn't be happier with how she took care of him! Would highly recommend and would book again 100%”
“Keisha was very kind and loving towards CJ. Her kids loved CJ and was very attentive towards him. She kept him on his diet and he has no stomach issues. Thank you Keisha for being so kind and loving.”
About: I truly believe that pets are part of the family and am here to treat yours as my own. I am the first person my friends turn to when they need a sitter, and have both hosted dogs in my house and stayed with them in their own. I also enjoy pet visits and walks! I work as a teacher, so most of my availability is on the weekend and during summer months, although I am available for evening visits or walks during the week. I have a large fenced in yard that is great for running and playing and live in a neighborhood ideal for walks. I have a large crate available, if your dog’s routine includes crating. My own golden retriever would love to be friends with and keep your pet company! While I allow pets on my furniture and beds, I will follow the rules established for your pet. Your pet will receive plenty of love and attention!
“Katlyn was great! Kept us updated on our dog, sent pictures, and gifted him the only toy he couldn’t stop playing with! Katlyn was able to take him last minute and a day earlier to make our trip easier! Very professional and personable as well! Looking forward to booking with her in the future as well!”
“I would definitely recommend Sarah for watching your dog. She took such good care of my Murphy while I was away on an unexpected work trip. Sarah sent lots of pictures and updates. Murphy seemed right at home there on her big comfy couch.”
“Danielle was wonderful! From the time we entered the house I felt this was a perfect fit fir my little Goober. They welcomed him with open arms. Pictures were sent with the kids loving on him as well as walks. It was a great experience for Goober and I. Highly recommend Danielle for your fur baby.”

“Anna C was kind enough to check in on my cat at the last minute after a cancellation. She was professional, knowledgable, and went above and beyond expectations in caring for my elderly cat. I would not hesitate to use her again to check in on my pets”
“So responsive and helpful! Stephanie showed me the ropes as a new user and helped strategize a plan to keep our cat calm through the fireworks. Her check ins were very thoughtful. I had so much confidence that our cat was not only fed but given care and attention <3”
“Natalie is fabulous! She took detailed notes about my cat’s care and sent several pictures each day. I had a better vacation knowing that Natalie was taking such good care of my cat.”
“This was my first time since moving and having my cat alone so I was nervous to hire someone to check in on her. Tai was communicative, caring, friendly and sweet! She closely followed the instructions I left. I am so grateful for the last minute drop-in visit. I will definitely reach out again and would recommend her for anyone’s pet!”
“My first time using Rover and am very very pleased! Christy truly loves animals and is so easy to communicate with. I love the daily reports and pictures - definitely puts my mind at ease! We will 100% be calling on Christy again!!”
“We cannot recommend Ronny highly enough! When another sitter backed out at the last minute, we reached out to Ronny on short notice. He responded promptly and was more than willing to come by for a meet and greet, which immediately put us at ease. From the moment he walked in the door, our cats were comfortable with him which is not always the case. Ronny took his time answering all of our questions and asked thoughtful questions of his own. Even though we admittedly have a very detailed list of instructions, he did an amazing job remembering all the little things and checking in regularly with messages and photos throughout his stay. It was clear that Ronny genuinely cared about making sure our cats were happy, comfortable, and well loved while we were away. He was also incredibly respectful of our home, leaving everything exactly as we left it. He even went above and beyond by offering to clear our driveway after an unexpected snowfall. If you’re looking for someone who truly goes the extra mile and treats your pets like their own, Ronny is absolutely the person to book!”

“We hired Nimo to house sit our cat for nine days. She is a joy to work with. She took great care of our cat.

We feel comfortable trusting her with our cat and would recommend her to anyone!”

“Paul was fantastic! Five stars isn't enough. He was extremely prompt, kind, and thorough with his communication from our initial request through pick-up. He took incredible care of our two boys and treated them like family. They were safe and comfortable. We received regular text and photo updates throughout their stay, and it was wonderful to see how much fun they were having. They even came home with a goodie bag of treats! His compassion and genuine love for animals were evident in every interaction. We can't speak highly enough of Paul and are so grateful for the exceptional care he provided. We'll definitely be using his services again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter.”
About: I've taken care of dogs my entire life, and have owned multiple rescue dogs since I was 22 years old. I often assist my neighbors and family with their pets. My dogs are 100% my top priority! I have 2 small dogs who I currently take out every 2-3 hours. I am a dedicated dog momma that prioritizes them, making pet care a daily routine. I adjust to the temperament of the dog. It's important to make them feel comfortable in the home at all times. I let my dogs graze, with food and water available to them at all times. But this can be adjusted to your pups needs. We also walk daily (at least once a day), and treats are provided after successful potties outside. I also provide a variety of toys, blankets, and beds for my dogs.
About: I don't have a ton of experience with pet-sitting, but I LOVE animals. My two cats are my life, and I always do what I can to ensure they are happy in their forever home. I've always grown up with animals in my home, so adding some more fur-rends (please laugh) temporarily is always welcome. My days are usually very open, since I just graduated high school. I'm mostly doing this as a summer gig, since I'll be off to college come August. I have a fenced yard and two cats! They are very shy around other animals/people, but are in general very friendly. The yard is huge, with a ton of space for an animal to run around and play.

“Jenny is amazing. Made me feel at ease from the first meet through the first week of daycare. She is flexible and helped me with all the transitions of a new sitter while starting a new job. Dog daycare was the least of my worries thanks to Jenny. Jaxx got everything he needed while I worked. Definitely recommend Jenny.”
About: My husband and I just moved to York and I am in between jobs, looking for some extra money and love! My family dog, Kasper, passed away about two years ago and was central family member for about 17 years. He was one of the best things to happen to our family and he taught me how passionate I am about animals/dogs. Being an elderly dog, he went through many medical challenges so I am very familiar with special diets, medicines, routines, and extra special care. I go above-and-beyond to make sure the dogs I care for feel loved and safe. I have also watched the dogs of family members and friends and have volunteered to walk dogs at the local facility, Doggie Style. I have experience with dogs weighing anywhere from 13 lbs to 85 lbs. I know life can be busy so I'd love to make your dogs feel safe and loved when you can't be home! Also love to get a walk in during the day! I am currently in between jobs so my schedule is wide open to dog sit!! I love the extra company while I’m at home and I also love getting out of the house for visits! I’m happy to come to you or to host doggy daycare at my townhouse! We have 4 rooms, a backyard, and a nice neighborhood to walk in with a dog park.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for years through helping friends, family, and neighbors with feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I’ve also had my own dog for 6 years, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pet. I’m patient, reliable, and comfortable with dogs of different sizes and personalities. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and gets plenty of attention while you’re away. I work Monday through Thursday, which makes me fully available on weekends for pet care. I can provide walks and drop-in visits on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays with flexible timing. I make sure pets get consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the weekend so they feel comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. I provide a safe, calm, and attentive environment for every pet in my care. I closely follow each pet’s routine and any instructions provided by the owner to ensure consistency and comfort. I supervise pets at all times during visits and outdoor time, and I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being.
“If you missed my 6 star review, after Natalie’s last visit with the pups I would raise it to seven stars! We made a very last minute change to our itinerary and she was able to accommodate us. As always she takes great care of our pups and leaves the house immaculate. Lots of communication, check ins and pictures. It is wonderful to have found someone who is so responsible. I almost hate to have to share her. You can’t go wrong having her take of your pets!”
About: Hello everyone! My name is Emma and I have over 15 years of experience taking care of animals. I grew up around mostly cats and dogs, and have gained valuable experience handling, caring for, and interacting with them. I have a cat of my own currently and I’ll be sure to care for your pets as if they were my own kitty at home, and that means they’ll get the best care as possible as my cat is my best friend, so this means I am especially great with cats! I look forward to meeting with all you future pet owners! I currently have a wide open schedule. I live home alone and don’t have many things to worry about, so my cat takes up more of my time than anything else. So cats are indeed my specialty! At home I make sure my cat has a clean litter box, filled food and water bowls, and a clean environment overall to live in.
“Murray was wonderful! Delightful to work with. Excellent with communicating. Very attentive to Nala’s needs, especially as they cared for her during very intense heat. I would give my highest recommendation over and over. I’m very grateful for the care Nala received.”
“This was Ruby’s first time being walked by someone other than a family member- so she was a little nervous! But Ronny made a nervous momma and pup feel at ease right away. He greeted Ruby with a smile and happy puppy talk. Clearly she enjoyed the walk as she’s passed out at my feet!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for both friends and family for about four years now. I have experience with both young and old, I’ve taken care of my own dog since she was a puppy and she is now almost 12. I do not currently have another job, but I am a student at York College. I have lots of free time during the day to take your babies on walks, have play dates, and sleepovers! I work well with instructions because I think it is best to keep them with the same schedules they are accustomed to. I love to keep them comfortable and give them tons of attention.

About: My family and I have been fostering dogs for the past 11 years. We’ve fostered a total of 13 dogs and became foster failures once:) I volunteer at Delaware Valley Golden Retriever Rescue working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and disabilities and I’m currently working on my undergrad degree for Animal Science! I currently only work part time a few hours a week so I have more than enough time for your playful pup(s). I’m an early riser and very active so I’m always happy to go on long walks, hikes, play fetch, etc. Because of having a part time job I have lots of time to come to your house during the day and hang out with your pup whether it’s, going for a walk, taking him/her out to go to the bathroom or just having playtime. I have many years of experience due to my family fostering dogs for the past decade, I have playful and loving 3 year old golden retriever male named Jersey who would love to keep your pup company as well. I don’t have a fenced in back yard but I have nearby fenced in dog park I go to frequently.
About: I’ve cared for cats my entire life and have experience with a wide range of personalities, from social and affectionate to shy or recently rescued.

In addition, I’m comfortable handling small animals and have experience owning and caring for ferrets. I prioritize patience, consistency, and understanding each pet’s individual needs to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I currently just graduated high school at York County School of Technology while enrolled in the Licensed Cosmetology program! I obtained my cosmetology license in December of 2025. I’m currently waiting to begin my journey in the esthetics side of the cosmetology industry! I have a very flexible schedule on the weekends, as well as mid afternoon and nights. I personally prioritize creating a safe, calm, and stress free environment for every pet in my care. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and any specific needs so I can keep their environment consistent and comfortable. I’m attentive to details such as securing doors, safe feeding practices, and monitoring behavior for any signs of stress or illness. I’m also respectful of client homes and follow all instructions carefully to ensure both pets and property are well cared for. For more anxious or shy animals, I focus on patience and gentleness to build trust at their pace. I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you feel confident and informed while you’re away.
About: I have experience in both senior dog/cat care, aswell as raising and training puppies ! I have had 4 dogs throughout my life. My dog Marty, who passed recently, was 18 years old. I was able to care, watch, and love him throughout his senior years , which built strength within helping care for senior dogs. Also, every one of my dogs was adopted as a puppy, which helped me gain experience in training, and taking care of puppies, as well as dogs of any age! I have pet sat for neighbors and family members countless of times, including cats, dogs, bunnies, and even lizards! With my schedule, I am available anytime after 11 am for drop ins and walks!

As for now, with pet care at a clients house, if allowing, I am more than willing to help clean any messes from the animals, and casual cleaning around the areas of the house I am in during my stay/visit! All I ask is for a set of guidelines on your dogs routine and assure that your pet and environment will be well cared for :)
About: Hi my name is Samantha im 27 years old and I would love to take care of your pet. I can walk, feed, brush, bathe, and play with your pet. I have a dog myself and her name is noodle we adopted her from the spca in 2017. She is a 6 year old chihuahua-dachshund mix I enjoy taking care of her even though bath time is a workout. I've always wanted to take care of a dog even though its a big responsibly. I will keep your pet safe and calm and go slow with them when they are scared or shy. No squirrels will be caught or chased in the making. (I don't smoke and have transportation) Animals can predict a schedule so i am regularly at your house for your pet they will get used to me being there at a certain time. Every time my dog goes outside she is on a leash and so will your pet. When its time for bed my dog sleeps in her crate/bed i can do that to for your pet.
About: Experienced with cats, dogs, and reptiles. I live a healthy/active lifestyle and work remotely from home. Friends and relatives across the country regularly have me travel to their homes to care for their animals. Aside from taking care of myself I have been taking care of my cat and ball python for the last 8 years! Previously I lived with two large dogs and was responsible for their feeding and walks while my roommate was at work :) I work from home so I will be around all day or, alternatively, can work from your home. My job does not usually require me to be at my desk consistently so I’m able to take breaks to go on walks or play. I have a large porch that the animals can go out on (if you are comfortable with that). I have a guest bedroom/art room in case they prefer some personal space.
About: I bring over 30 years of personal and professional experience working with and loving animals. I have worked and volunteered at several organizations (York SPCA, Hershey Zoo America, and Animal Rescue) since 1998. In those roles, I have cleaned kennels, walked and cared for dogs, played and cared with cats, and provided education of North American animals at the zoo. I love all animals especially seniors and I am comfortable with all size dogs. In fact, I have one pit bull and a turtle. I have fostered 4 pitties. Growing up, I lived on a small farmette and we had lots of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, a horse and an iguana. I have a flexible schedule and can adapt to meet your schedule and the needs of your fur babies.
“Kara was great when we hired her to check in on our dog while we were both working. I received updates and pictures throughout the visit! Definitely recommend Kara to watch your fur kiddos.”

“Ashley & Jerrell were exceptionally kind & thoughtful, going the extra mile to help us board our dog on short notice during an emergency. Great communication throughout shifting circumstances and they were also very patient with my elderly mother. The only downside was that our dog was crated from 6:30am to 3:30pm while they were at work, but not unexpected.”
“Krista has hosted our lab retriever, Ellie, twice. Both times were fantastic. Krista is always very easy to communicate with! She is great with dogs. It’s nice that our dog can socialize and play while she stays with Krista and her family. I also appreciate how she always has Ellie‘s things packed and ready to go when I come for pick up- it makes drop off and pick up quick and easy. We will definitely rebook with her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Wow! This was our first time ever using a service like this and Lisa knocked it out of the park caring for our baby! Was amazing with communication with lots of messages and pictures! I would use her again in a second!”
“Choosing a pet sitter can be an anxious process, especially when transitioning away from a traditional kennel or veterinary boarding facility. However, our experience with Brionna completely eliminated that stress and surpassed every expectation. From the moment we dropped off our dog, Meleys, through the very end of our vacation, Brionna maintained an exceptional line of communication. Knowing that Meleys was being cared for in a traditional, loving home environment—rather than a sterile kennel—made an immense difference in her comfort level. Because Brionna is located so close to us, the familiar neighborhood environment undoubtedly helped Meleys acclimate and settle in almost immediately. The true testament to Brionna’s care was Meleys’ disposition when we picked her up. She was relaxed, happy, and it was entirely evident that she had a thoroughly positive, nurturing experience. We were able to completely unwind on our trip knowing our dog was in such capable and attentive hands. We wholeheartedly recommend Brionna to anyone looking for premium, reliable, and compassionate dog-watching services. We will absolutely be booking with her again!”

We appreciate the daily pics of our pup enjoying herself with her friend Kodiak. We’re so grateful that we found Kara and hope to continue boarding our dear dog with her in the future.”

“Sarah and her family are great! Very nice people and I could immediately tell upon meeting them that my puppy would be in good hands while i was on vacation. Sarah sent me pictures and videos of him and how he was doing the whole time and we couldn't be happier with how she took care of him! Would highly recommend and would book again 100%”
“Keisha was very kind and loving towards CJ. Her kids loved CJ and was very attentive towards him. She kept him on his diet and he has no stomach issues. Thank you Keisha for being so kind and loving.”
About: I truly believe that pets are part of the family and am here to treat yours as my own. I am the first person my friends turn to when they need a sitter, and have both hosted dogs in my house and stayed with them in their own. I also enjoy pet visits and walks! I work as a teacher, so most of my availability is on the weekend and during summer months, although I am available for evening visits or walks during the week. I have a large fenced in yard that is great for running and playing and live in a neighborhood ideal for walks. I have a large crate available, if your dog’s routine includes crating. My own golden retriever would love to be friends with and keep your pet company! While I allow pets on my furniture and beds, I will follow the rules established for your pet. Your pet will receive plenty of love and attention!
“Katlyn was great! Kept us updated on our dog, sent pictures, and gifted him the only toy he couldn’t stop playing with! Katlyn was able to take him last minute and a day earlier to make our trip easier! Very professional and personable as well! Looking forward to booking with her in the future as well!”
“I would definitely recommend Sarah for watching your dog. She took such good care of my Murphy while I was away on an unexpected work trip. Sarah sent lots of pictures and updates. Murphy seemed right at home there on her big comfy couch.”
“Danielle was wonderful! From the time we entered the house I felt this was a perfect fit fir my little Goober. They welcomed him with open arms. Pictures were sent with the kids loving on him as well as walks. It was a great experience for Goober and I. Highly recommend Danielle for your fur baby.”
“Deb is a wonderful person with people and dogs. My dog Lily was a little nervous at first and she was able to help her settle in and have an enjoyable stay. Highly recommend her”
“**Exceptional Dog Sitting Service!** I can't say enough good things about Kathy! From the moment we met her, I could tell she truly love and understand dogs. She took such wonderful care of my furry friend, making sure every need was met—timely walks, and cuddles to make Arlo feel right at home. I received updates, adorable photos, and even a little summary of how his day was going. If you're looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive to watch your dog, I highly recommend Kathy”
