“Christina was a WONDERFUL drop-in sitter for our little cat. She diligently left detailed notes, asked questions, and took lots of pictures of our little guy. We felt so at ease that he was with someone taking such good care of him! She went above and beyond what we asked of her and we would book her again in a heartbeat!”
“I have used Kara several times to take care of my cats and she is wonderful!! Always on time and sends great pics of my kitties and cares for them as I would. Makes being away from them much easier! The last time our flight was cancelled and she was very flexible and willing to adjust her schedule to add one more day. Highly recommend Kara!!”
“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”
“I was very pleased with Christy's care of my cat, Henry. She took very good care of him while I was away for over a week. She sent me many pictures and kept me updated by text on what was happening with him. She gets my highest recommendation. I will book with her again.”
“Alyssa is an amazing sitter ! She does an amazing job with my dog who is really hyper and loves playing! Would definitely recommend Alyssa if you need a sitter who goes the extra mile for your pet.”
“This was Alexis’s 2nd time watching our cat, Mars and she is just the absolute best! She truly treats Mars like her own and he adores her. All the pictures she took of Mars to send us were also so very sweet, as it showed Mars was being very playful and cuddly. I cannot recommend Alexis enough! Thank you so much!!! We can’t wait to book you again & again.”
“Kiah took wonderful care of our fur-babies. Our cats are high maintenance and extremely spoiled. She spent time getting to know them and earning their trust. We were able to relax because we knew they were in good hands. We’ll definitely use Kiah in the future and highly recommend her.”
“Madison was wonderful caring for my two kitties! She provided excellent care and was communicative with me during my time away. She is reliable and dependable. I highly recommend her for pet care! Winston and Fiona enjoyed their time with her and look forward to seeing her in the future :)”
About: Hi, I’m Abby! I grew up with dogs and there is no other animal that I connect with better than them. I previously owned Whisker to Tail Pet Services, providing everything from dog walks to wedding day handling and advanced dog training! I have variable availability to accommodate daytime and overnight visits, providing the same loving care no matter how long I am with your pets. I am great with following directions and attention to detail, so if your pet has any additional needs (such as medication), just tell me and I’ll make sure your companion has everything he or she needs 😁 I am deeply grateful for your consideration of me for your pet care needs, I know how difficult that decision is! If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask. My schedule can be somewhat busy, but I can be flexible as needed. The best way to confirm my availability is to reach out to me directly! I am very respectful of my clients homes and belongings. During our initial consultation, I ask specific questions regarding what supplies and areas of your home I may have access to. If something is not on that list, I don’t touch it! Home is a safe space and deserves to remain that way.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats I take care of friends and My family's pets when they go out of town or just need a potty break I am a stay-at-home dog mom and would love to help you make your dog happy when you go away on vacation or just at work I have a fenced in yard so your pet can run and play ball or just relax in a shady spot and get lots of love and kisses
About: I’ve lived with dogs/cats my entire life. I have checked in, played, fed, given meds and potty breaks to dogs of two other families before. STARTING AUGUST 18: I will be starting my clinical rotations at WellSpan hospitals and other sites. This means during weekdays I will not be available from 6am-3:30pm or even later depending what site I am at that day (i have rotations in Gettysburg). Weekends I am available unless said otherwise! Thank you! I’m a college student on summer break, so I’m available a lot of the time! I let out and play with another dog during weekday mornings, so anytime after that! Although I have an unfenced yard, I live on a dead end road with not a lot of traffic. I have a huge field behind my house where I can play with your pets. I have a friendly Springer Spaniel who can keep your dog company. I can easily crate if needed. Will not walk or let dogs out to potty without a leash. Will play unleashed in field.
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.
About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was little. My neighbors and other intermittent clients have trusted me to walk, feed, administer medication, and housesit their animals for a long time now. I also have worked at a facility that works closely with any and all types of dogs for about 3 years now—providing daycare, grooming, boarding, training, etc. I have also lived with dogs and cats my whole life, even a few geckos! I currently work part-time, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets. I like to make sure all animals feel safe and loved for even if their owners are not around. It is important to treat our pets with as much love as we give ourselves—they deserve time, attention, and excellent care! I only have experience caring for pets in their own home, since this is where the animals are the most comfortable. I try my very best to make sure the animals I am around are comfortable with my presence, as I understand all animals are different, and will need different kinds of attention!
