Pet Sitting in Wilderness Acres

“Katherine treats your pets like her own! What a wonderful experience we had with her - will absolutely be rebooking her!! We loved how quickly our pets warmed up to her - two dogs who don't socialize often but clearly loved her from all the amazing photos she took! I was so at ease leaving my pups with her I'd be comfortable doing it again in a heartbeat! She's simply amazing!”

“This is the 3rd or 4th time we've used Ashley and she's absolutely AMAZING. I wouldn't trust anyone else in my home or with my pets. Thank you so much for all you do for us;)”

About: "With a wealth of hands-on experience managing the day-to-day operations of an animal shelter and specializing in dog training, I bring a unique blend of practical knowledge and heartfelt dedication to the field of animal care. My role involved not only overseeing the well-being of diverse animal residents but also implementing tailored training programs to enhance their adoptability. My commitment to fostering positive connections between pets and their future families has not only been a professional endeavor but a personal passion. This comprehensive background positions me as an ideal choice for anyone seeking a compassionate and skilled individual in the realm of animal care. Integrating pet care seamlessly into my daily life is not just a routine; it's a cherished commitment. With two dogs of my own, each day is filled with moments of joy, responsibility, and unwavering companionship. From morning walks to evening playtime, my life revolves around ensuring the well-being, happiness, and health of my four-legged family members. This personal dedication reflects my genuine understanding of the profound role pets play in our lives and underscores my passion for extending the same level of care to others' beloved companions. I extend the same attentive care to others' pets as I do with my own, creating a home-away-from-home experience. With two incredibly friendly dogs of my own, I understand the importance of a warm, welcoming environment. Proficient in crate training, I ensure a secure and comfortable space for all furry guests. A fenced backyard provides a safe area for play and exercise. Respecting the unique needs of each pet and their home, my commitment lies not only in their well-being but also in maintaining a secure and loving atmosphere during their stay.

About: I am that person who stops everything wherever I am to talk to dogs walking or play with them in the pet store. Pets are great friends. I work full time from home. 6a-230p. I live right outside of Penn Estates. Weekends I am available at any time. During the week after 230. I walk my 2 dogs around on a leash. They have seatbelts/car seats for car rides. We also like playing in the park. Treats in a pocket are a great way to keep your furry friend next to you

About: Hi there, I’m Emileigh! Since I was old enough to hold a leash, I have been the neighborhood pet sitter. I have lived in many different places and at each and every one of them, I have house-sat, walked neighbor’s dogs, and done regular checkups on pets of many different shapes and sizes. I have even had the privilege of working at a horse farm where I had the responsibility of feeding and caring for a variety of animals such as horses, cats, dogs, goats and donkeys. In other words, I deeply enjoy the company of animals, and I have found that caring for them is one of the most rewarding and worthwhile things that I can spend my time doing. I am a traditional artist with a constant desire for the company of furry friends, while also currently doing housekeeping on some weekday mornings. Due to the commission work I do being a very flexible, self-motivated type of profession, and my housekeeping commitment coming to a close in April, I am able to work around pet care, of which I primarily offer in the afternoons. The first goal that I set for myself when entering any pup’s home is to assess how they are doing while scanning the environment for any kinds of disturbances, or anything to note. When on walks, my priorities are safety, being aware of our environment, making sure that the pup is comfortable, and of course, making sure that we are having a good time! I fully believe that you can never ask too many questions, so I will make sure that I learn as much as I can about the pup and how to make them feel comfortable and cared for, as trust is very important to me. Overall, I will prioritize that both the pup and I are in the safest situations possible when it comes to both environment and being in the company of each other.

“Sydney was great! She kept me updated about how our dog was doing while we were away, and made sure he was taken care of.”

About: I’ve been around dogs and animals in general since a young age, with my grandpa running a small farm. I’ve grown up around breeds like German Shepherds, and have always taken care of friends’ dogs while they were in vacation. I learned a lot from my fiancé, who ran a successful dog walking business in New York City Give yourself peace of mind, your dog is in safe, loving, caring hands. I’m currently working from home with a special schedule which I take advantage of as it frees up a lot of time during the day. Pet care fits into it quite easily, as I have a daily routine I follow which includes dog walks, time with the dogs outside and of course feedings (and tending medicine when needed). I have a home situated on a quiet, secluded private lot that backs up onto a river with several trails within a short walking distance. The yard is secluded, well shaded and has ample space. I take care to be active with the dogs, so I usually toss frisbees or play fetch several times a day to keep them content. I walk my dogs twice around the neighborhood. Besides home, I have a number of dog-friendly trails and parks both in East Stroudsburg and nearby where I bring the dogs for some quality time outside. This includes hiking on trails and in the mountains, bringing the dogs to rivers or lakes, I mix it up each week depending on the weather conditions. Any time I go on an outdoor adventure, I make sure I have the owner’s consent. Their dogs will always be hydrated and have a snack. I only ask that if your dog has specific dietary needs or is taking medication, that you provide me with the necessary information and schedule. I have two modes of transport for dogs, both of which offer plenty of space, safety and comfort for the dogs while en route.

About: I have a degree in veterinary science and I’m currently on the road to attend veterinary school! I have lots of knowledge on pet behavior and how to properly care for them. I’ve worked as a veterinary technician for the past few years. I’ve worked in general practice, emergency animal hospitals, and even a pet hotel. I’ve cared for hundreds of patients, provided preventative care, treatments, medications, cleaned their kennels, walked dogs, and played with them. I also helped my senior dog turn around her health around by helping her lose 8 lbs! I’m currently preparing for my VTNE, so for the next few weeks I will only be doing Rover! I’ve been working for animals for the past few years, I truly love what I do. I’m a veterinary technician so I’m no stranger to daily pet care for cats & dogs. In my home, I take care of both of my cats. I feed them, clean their litter boxes, clip their nails, and clean their ears.

About: Located just 10 mins from Shawnee Mountain and 25 minutes from CamelBack Peace of mind and knowing your little beauty is having fun and being treated as part of a loving family. I love going above and beyond. It's not the time you spend with dogs, it's the QUALITY of time. I show dogs that I take care of lots and lots of LOVE. This includes petting, hugging, kissing, playing, walking and sometimes just quiet time together. This is what you can expect with me when I care for your precious dog. 100% of my time is spent with and caring for your dog while they are in my care. I have been taking care of three dogs for years now. Buddy, Daisy and Honeybear. I enjoy it very much. It is a passion of mine. The home has central air and heat. A gated run area is located on the premises. I am looking forward to caring for more dogs by joining the trusted site of Rover. I will be home all day with your pets and able to play with them and take them out as often as they need to go out. I do not have any pets and only watch one pet at a time so your pet will get all the time and attention they need.

About: I came into this world greeted by dogs and have had one ever since! I have had dogs all my life, ranging from small to large breeds (one even weighing 120lbs)! At the moment, I have an energetic 6 year old Labrador who can’t get enough of “fetch”! I also have 10 years of experience taking care of cats! Message me for more information :) I’m currently working part-time, 2 days a week so I have plenty of time to care for animals. I am available at all times of the day depending on scheduling! At my house, I take my dog for her daily walks in order to get exercise. She enjoys swimming and running after her bunny toy. I also have a feeding schedule for her that I abide by in order to make sure she stays happy and healthy.

About: I am a dog lover and owner just like you. I know how difficult it can get sometimes but no worries. That's what I'm here for. Your dog will be in excellent hands. I will play, exercise, and create a bond with your dog as if they were my own. I will always keep you updated since I know how nerve wrecking it may be sometimes. I have experience with many different dogs such as but not limited to Maltese, Pitbulls, German Shepherds, Collie's, Yorkie's, and more. Don't hesitate to contact me ever (even if it's just to say hello to your baby's - I understand). I'll make sure your dogs are feed and they get a well enough walk before taking them home to rest. I'm currently a full-time dog sitter/walker, so I'll have plenty of time to spend with your doggies. I am available at anytime, reach out with your request! If I am caring for your fur-baby in my home I have an unfenced yard to 3 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I do have an outdoor doggie playpen. I can easily separate and crate your dog as well as mine if needed. I like to work with your dog, so introductions to my dogs as well as my yard will be done at your dogs pace. I am great with commands and a great alpha for the dogs to follow.

About: As a dedicated pet professional with years of experience in dog shows, obedience training, and specialized behavioral care, I bring a level of expertise that goes far beyond basic pet sitting. My background includes handling and training dogs across all breed groups from high-energy Sporting breeds to gentle giants; with a focus on positive reinforcement and evidence-based methods. I do not use intimidation, aversives, or outdated techniques; my approach is rooted in patience, science, and an understanding of canine behavior. I specialize in working with fearful, reactive, and anxious dogs, helping them build confidence through structured, compassionate guidance. Whether it’s maintaining training routines, socializing puppies, or supporting special-needs pets, I tailor my care to each animal’s unique personality and needs. My experience in the show world has also given me a keen eye for health, structure, and proper conditioning—so your dog receives not just love, but knowledgeable, attentive care. For safety reasons, I do not care for pets on raw food diets. Research shows that dogs fed raw shed pathogenic bacteria in their saliva at levels high enough to pose risks to healthy adult humans and other animals. My clients’ well-being is my priority, so I adhere to strict hygiene practices to ensure everyone stays happy and healthy. Currently a college student with a flexible schedule, I treat every pet as if they were my own—whether it’s a lively walk, an overnight stay, or just some extra reassurance while you’re away. Let’s chat about how I can provide your dog (or cat!) with the expert care they deserve. As a part-time worker and student, I update my Rover calendar biweekly and accept bookings around my variable per-diem shifts. I prioritize pet care during my free hours—whether that’s early mornings, evenings, or weekends, and always confirm availability promptly. Need last-minute care? Just ask! I’ll let you know immediately if I can accommodate. I prioritize fear-free, positive reinforcement techniques tailored to each pet’s needs—whether it’s helping reactive dogs feel secure or enriching high-energy pups’ routines. With experience in medical care and rehabilitation, I follow protocols meticulously (meds, mobility support, etc.) and keep detailed updates for you. Every visit includes: • Stress-free handling (no forced interactions) • Custom mental/physical stimulation (puzzle games, scent work, etc.) • Environment checks (pet-proofing, hazard awareness) • Medical vigilance (experienced with injections, special diets, post-op care) For house sitting: I maintain your pet’s home routines to minimize anxiety and always leave spaces cleaner than I found them.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats all through my childhood, and have since lived with and cared for a range of sweet animals from old black labs to crazy teenage maine coons! I love all animals and have experience with older animals that require a gentle touch and may have more needs, as well as very stubborn pets. I am also familiar with and comfortable caring for chickens and other outdoor animals, as well as small pets such as hamsters or guinea pigs. I am currently available to house sit at your home, walk your pets, or drop in to provide services such as feeding them, cleaning litter boxes, etc. As someone who travels a lot myself, I understand how much of a relief it is when you know that your home and your pets are safe and well cared-for. I am always happy to meet you in person or over the phone before scheduling, will always send you lots of pictures of your sweet pets (and anything else you might like me to check on!), and will always follow all your rules and requests when it comes to security and safety measures.

About: I have always been an animal lover. I try to take care of my pets as much as I can and I never leave the house without taking my pet out or feeding them. I will do my very best to provide for your pet/s and leave a safe environment for your pet/s with toys, food, and a nice clear view to see outside. If my client would like to get updates on his/hers pet, I will be more than happy to send you updates. I know how it feels leaving your pet to a stranger so I would be more than happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have. Thank you for considering me as your pet sitter.
