“An absolute pleasure to work with. Elaina did a fantastic job taking care of our dog and sent us pictures throughout the day. She also left our home very clean. I highly recommend and will use in the future.”



“John is a kind and caring person who I've no doubt will take good care of your pets when you need extra help. My mini dogs are sensitive and each has their own quirks and needs John had an instant rapport with each one. My first booking was an overnight stay and I will be booking with him again!”



“We're fairly new to PA & needed someone to come house sit with our dog & cat while on vacation. Melisha was available during our anticipated days away & from her profile/bio she seemed a good fit. I booked a meet-n-greet & while speaking with her in person, I knew she was THE one to watch Gunther & Honey. She's very personable, very knowledgeable, and experienced. I had requested she send daily pictures & updates, & that's exactly what she did - kept in daily communication (unlike other sitters I've had in the past). She also walked Gunther daily, & fed him at my requested times to keep his schedule as close to normal as possible. I will be booking Melisha again to watch our fur babies during future trips out of town! She was excellent, & I highly recommend her!!!”


“Micah was such a gem to find! He was thorough in his care for my animals which is not easy as my boxer has a myriad of health and anxiety issues. He provided updates and asked questions when needed. Do not hesitate to book Micah, he is a fine gentleman who will care for your animals like his own. I will not hesitate to reach back out myself!”


“Carly was great. She followed our feeding and care instructions, communicated promptly with any questions/responses and sent photos of our happy pets. We highly recommend her and will use her again for future petsitting.”


“Alexus did a wonderful job for us. She even took my sick dog to the vet and cared for her with medication, etc. I would gladly use her services again.”


“Kerri is the BEST! She stayed at our house for over a week taking care of our dog and cat. Because our dog is large (70lbs) and sometimes anxious/reactive, it can be difficult to find a sitter that is a good fit. Kerri came prepared, asked lots of questions, sent daily updates, and our dog loved her. We will definitely book Kerri again -- highly recommended!”


“Kam did a wonderful job looking after our two dogs at the house for a week. Great communication and left two happy dogs and a spotless house, we highly recommend!”


“Lora was absolutely wonderful with our dog and cat! She sent frequent updates and pictures and took excellent care of our home and animals. She is extremely kind! Highly recommend and we will definitely be booking with her again!!!”


“Delaney watched my dog, Roxie, while we went away for about five days. She did a great job in communicating. Roxie was well taken care of, was happy and had a full bowl of water when we got home. I will definitely ask Delaney to watch my dog again in the future.”


About: Thanks for clicking on my profile! I have experience working with pups and kittens ranging from a few months old to the end of their life. I foster a strong bond with every pet by tailoring my care to each baby's unique personality and needs. I'm happy to care for pups of any types, but my speciality is getting close to (and wearing out!) anxious dogs. I'm very patient and energetic, which allows me to move at their pace and earn their trust. I have some dog (and cat!) training experience, so I'd be happy to teach basic commands and/or reinforce the commands you're already working on with your pup :) does your dog pull during walks? Do they come when you call? I can try to help! My absolute favorite service to provide is walking dogs for 2+ hours to really wear them out! I love a long walk! (I'm also happy to provide plant care! I'm an ecologist by trade.) I'm looking forward to meeting you and your sweet baby! I work remotely with an incredibly flexible schedule, so I can usually make my schedule fit whatever is needed. I just need a few days notice so that I can make sure my schedule is clear for your fur babies! I'm happy to stay over night at your home, if needed! I like to bring my own sleeping mat, and I'll need to bring my kitty if I'm caring for your pet for more than two nights.

“Holly did an amazing job taking care of my dog and cat! She went above and beyond what was expected, providing frequent updates and keeping me reassured while I was away. Both my pets are happy and well cared for, and I couldn’t ask for better service. I highly recommend Holly for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


About: I grew up with dogs, a few cats, a hamster, and goldfish at various times and love being around animals. I am the go-to pet sitter for friends and family and have cared for all kinds of dogs - large and small, anxious and silly, and cats, too. I don't have special training but am good at figuring things out. I work from home so have flexible time for feeding, walking, playing with your pets. I am available to pet and/or house sit on weekends. My dog was terrified of fireworks and other loud sounds, so I am very careful to keep dogs on leashes any time I am outside with them - unless we are in their secure fenced in backyard. I also keep cats inside unless they are indoor/ outdoor cats. Animals tend to like their routine so I try to stick to that so they feel happy and secure.

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats in my life, whether in my own house or my neighbors’. I’ve become used to both the chaos and peacefulness of pet caretaking, and I’m always ready to learn something new. In terms of dogs, most of my experience has been with small to medium or slightly large dogs, but I’ve spent time with all types and am excited about new experiences. I’ve walked dogs and pet-sat for neighbors as the majority of my paid experience, and I’m looking to expand outside of my neighborhood. As someone who goes to college in another state, I am often in Maryland during the summers and winters, where I have extra love to give to pets (there aren’t many on campus)! While back home for summer or winter vacation, I have a very flexible schedule and love to go walking, which is why dog walking and pet sitting suits me perfectly. My other job is during the school year, so it doesn’t interfere with my summer/winter schedules. That means that I am available most days of the week, and I will try to be as accommodating as possible for my clients. As someone who’s grown up with pets, I regularly help with feeding, walking, playing, cleaning up their litter box or taking them to the bathroom, administering medicine when necessary, along with any other additional care that they need. While working with clients, I write down any specific instructions they have for me and build a consistent routine, especially if I am pet sitting. I understand that different animals have different schedules and needs, so flexibility and safety is my priority.

About: I love all animals! I have goats, chickens and 2 cats. I had a golden retriever that I taught tons of tricks with the help of some cut up hotdogs! I’m very patient, gentle, and kind and I’m very active myself so lots of dog walks will be in play! I currently only work part time. I have a lot of free time on my hands that I’m trying to fill. Very flexible schedule, I’m willing to work any day of the week and working around my bartending shifts! I have 6 acres of land providing lots of room to run around and play. I have a lot of family members so your pet will receive lots of attention if wanted! In home care- I’m there for your pets needs, lots of play, walking, and cuddles will easily be provided, I follow their routine/schedule and whatever their owner asks of me! I have no issue with taking pets to parks or vet care as well!!

About: I’ve taken care of pets most of my life. Friends and relatives call me to either walk their dogs or take care of their cats while they are away. Your precious fur babies are in great hands with me! My schedule will be 7 days a week. My wish is to do this full time☺️ What better job than taking care of you furbabies! ( That includes cats also) I love dog walking because it gets us both outdoors and it’s great exercise for both of us! I can’t wait to meet your fur baby❤️

“Camryn was so wonderful to work with and took excellent care of our dog. She was an excellent communicator, sent lots of pics and left our home in tip top shape. I've already recommended her to friends and will definitely use her again!”



“Scott was on time, quick to respond and he sent plenty of photos. Baxter was happy when I got back. We will be inviting Scott over again in the future.”


About: I have always had a passion for animals of any kind. I have a cat myself, and have been trusted to care for friends and families cats and dogs for years now. I will care for your fur babies like they are my own. i currently work part-time, and will be home for the summer from school. I will have plenty of time to come check on your animals. I will make sure your animal gets plenty of exercise and love, and will also make sure your house stays in the condition it was found in, if not better.

About: Animals have been a integral part of my life for all of it, I cannot imagine a good life without them. I've cared for pregnant dogs, most notably a pitbull and eventually her puppies, house and crate training a litter of six. I adopted an elderly beagle with anxiety, reforming her destructive tendencies with attentive care and regimented medication. No matter the troubles with your fur family, I guarantee I will make your life easier, your days smoother and your pets happier. Pet care is my career so I am available all-day, everyday. It's one of the most rewarding jobs I've had, pets understand when you are looking out for them, and give it right back. For boarding, I have a large backyard with a high fence, perfect for running big dogs if we can't get to the dog park due to weather, dog temperament, etc. I have several large dog size wire crates if required, although I prefer to let new boards explore my puppy proofed first floor. I am flexible and competent able to respond quickly and effectively to everything from your dogs specific quirks, to unexpected medical emergencies with my personal supplies and a direct line to my local 24-hour vet, or yours if you prefer.

Sam S.Star Sitter
“I can't recommend Sam Sage enough for dog sitting! Sam took absolutely wonderful care of my senior dog, Cali, and I couldn't have felt more at ease while I was away. Cali isn’t the easiest dog to look after – she’s an old lady with arthritis, separation anxiety, and daily medications. She also has a tendency to bolt if given the chance, which always makes me nervous when leaving her with someone new. From the very beginning, Sam went above and beyond. Not only did they handle Cali’s meds like clockwork, but they were incredibly patient and thoughtful with her. Sam made sure to take her on regular walks, but they were careful to pay attention to how Cali was feeling. The moment she started limping, Sam didn’t push her – they stopped immediately, let her rest, and adjusted their routine to make sure she wasn’t overdoing it. That kind of awareness and care really stood out to me. One of the things I appreciated most was the constant communication. Sam sent me photos and videos throughout the entire time I was gone. I could see Cali happily lounging at home, getting her belly rubs, and taking gentle strolls. Seeing those updates not only reassured me but also made me feel connected to Cali even from afar. Sam’s attention to detail and their willingness to keep me in the loop was such a comfort, especially knowing how anxious Cali can get when I’m not around. If you’re looking for someone to care for your dog – especially one with extra needs – I wholeheartedly recommend Sam. They treated Cali like their own and gave her the love, patience, and attention she deserves. I’m so grateful to Sam for making what could have been a stressful experience into one that left me feeling confident and relaxed. Thank you, Sam!”

“Holly did an amazing job taking care of my dog and cat! She went above and beyond what was expected, providing frequent updates and keeping me reassured while I was away. Both my pets are happy and well cared for, and I couldn’t ask for better service. I highly recommend Holly for anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


Kimberly A.
“Kim has stayed in my home and taken care of my senior greyhound, Fraulein Kiley, numerous times. She is truly a greyhound whisperer! Honestly, I think Kiley may like Kim more than she does me! Kiley adores her, and Kim is so super-sweet and careful with Kiley. If it's winter and Kiley needs to be dressed for the 35 degree weather: no problem, Kim can put her in a 4-legged onesie and coat-- no small feat with a 60+ lb dog -- and Mushers Secret on her paws. There is no one I trust more to take care of Kiley than Kim. I cannot say enough about how terrific she is with my dog!”

Melvin B.
“Mel is the best dog walker/sitter/whisperer I have ever hired. My dog Vally absolutely loved her time with him. Mel would go above and beyond what I asked and would always keep me updated with pictures, a brief description of the day, and any issues or concerns. If I didn’t move I would still have him helping out. I know Vally misses him. 100% recommend hiring him.”
