“Brandon was great with our mini dachshund. He sat with her for the evening while we went out. He got her to eat, which isn’t easy. We came home to a happy pup!! We already rebooked him.”
“Janice was amazing while taking care of Nacho and house sitting. Updated and pics were frequent and reassuring. House and Nacho were well taken care of. Will definitely look to book again. Thank you Janice!”
“Valerie was the best pet sitter we have had. She took great care of our 3 dogs and cat. Usually when we get back they are so relieved for us to be home but I think they missed Valerie which makes me happy. I would highly recommend her. Our dogs can be at times a little much and a little overwhelming, but she took care of them great.”
“Brianna took great care of our Princess Potato “Pinky” She is a great communicator always letting us know how things are going and sending pictures. I would recommend Brianna to anyone wanting a trustworthy, kind dog lover to care for your beloved pet.”
“Ella took amazing care of our pets while we were out of town for 10 days. She sent us several pictures and short updates about the games our dogs played each day. She followed all our instructions, and we could see how happy our girls were with her. She stayed in our home the entire time, and when we returned, the house was spotless. She even left a thoughtful handwritten note on the kitchen counter summarizing how our pets behaved, what they did, and a few details about her stay and our home. We highly recommend Ella for pet and house sitting, and we will definitely contact her again the next time we’re out of town. Thanks again, Ella!”
“Christina was EXCELLENT! She made us feel comfortable at the meet and greet. She took good care of our 2 furbabies for 2 nights in our home. Christina shared info with us while we were away and also sent pictures. We would highly recommend her and will be booking her again!”

“My girls are very anxious and nervous around new people. With Katie, they were relaxed and excited to see her when she was taking care of them. I’ll definitely be asking for Katie’s help in the future for both puppy sitting and if I need help with someone just stopping in during the day.”
About: Hello! I have been caring for dogs since I was young as I grew up on a small farm. From inside and outside dogs, to now owning two labradors of my own that I have raised up from puppies. I love walking, playing, and caring for your animals and hope to help you when you need me. I am in my last stretch of PA graduate school and my clinical hours change each month, but I am willing to help fit your animal into my schedule! Morning, evenings, and/or nights are best! I am willing to work with pet owner on times that work best for both of us. Weekends are more open as for times. I have experience walking all sized dogs and can attest to being successful in caring for other fur babies. I can follow any instructions given for the animal and whatever is needed for your pet!
“Dove was absolutely wonderful! She took the best overnight weekend care of our pup and sent us lots of updates. She was thorough and kind. Will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend”
“Ben was great. Took care of our babies as well as we could have and they were sad when he left. We have already booked him again and will do so as often as he is available in the future.”
“Alana did a great job. My greyhounds can be intimidating at 90 and 120 lbs. but she handled them beautifully. No problems even with storms. She gave lots of updates. No problems staying at the house. Definitely will call her again!”
“Nyska was amazing and easy to work with for our vacation. Our home was spotless, the plants were well cared for, mail was collected, and—most importantly—our puppies were showered with love. I truly appreciated her flexibility and the daily updates with pictures and videos. The dogs responded well to her right away. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 14 years old. I’ve dealt with puppies all the way up to senior dogs. All of our dogs have been pitbull mixes, but I have helped family members with their smaller dogs as well. I am available anytime throughout the day for services! I love taking walks almost everyday, so I’d be more than comfortable walking dogs as well. In a clients home, I am very open minded with many situation such as shoes off at the front door, etc. I love playing with pets and giving them company that they need.
