About: I am a stay at home mom to a teen. My older children are adults and have moved out. I do own a rental business that is almost self sufficient. So I have a lot of free time. I worked at Petsmart in the grooming salon years ago. It was probably my favoritest job, I've ever had. I had many request clients that I loved! Only reason I quit was because I needed to move to be closer to family, and there isn't a local Petsmart in Harrisburg, otherwise I would've transfered. I have had animals all of my life, from cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and guinea pigs. We currently have 3 dogs (Mastiff 10, Shih tzu 12, Pug 3 Y.O.) and 6 indoor only cats. I am familiar with puppy and senior care. Two years ago our 15 year old Labrador had a stroke. She lost the use of her back legs and I cared for her the months after. I love animals and never considered pet sitting, until I had a family friend pet sit for me. It was a nightmare. I thought no one should have to go through that. I ended our vacation just after two days. I have had many pet sitters because we had always vacationed 6-8 times a year. I know the things that disappointed me. I believe I'd make an incredible pet sitter. Plus I love animals! Big or small it doesn't matter. And yes, I'm really vegan for the animals. I have open availability since I'm married, my husband works from home and I own a rental business that is almost self sufficient. My only child at home is a teen now and so he doesn't need me at home as much. Since my husband is home and helps out with my home's care, that leaves me open for my own ventures. I'll be the only Rover care person from our household. I have a large house with a large fenced in yard. My animals are very friendly and have been well socialized. I would prefer to care for client's pets in the client's home but could care for client's pets in mine.

About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds since I was ten. I’ve had reptiles, aquatic animals, dogs, and cats at my home since I was young, and have taken the utmost care of all of them. I have taken care of senior pets, pets with disabilities, and have lots of experience caring for puppies, kittens, and reptiles. I love animals; they are a big part of what brings me joy in life, and I can’t wait to help you take care of yours :). I am available during the afternoons and evenings on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and the weekends! I am also available all day for holidays, breaks, and all Summer long. At my own home, I have two dogs, a cat, and a bearded dragon. My dogs have an electrical fence that spans my entire yard worth several acres in the countryside, and I keep them in the house with me unless I am doing yard work or they need to use the bathroom. My cat mostly stays outside as she is a dark cat, but I take her inside during the colder months. In your homes, I will follow all your house rules, making sure to keep your pets as comfortable as possible; almost as if you were there with them :).

About: I have had dogs for most of my life and always loved all animals. I work remotely so I am almost always home with my own pets. I work from home, so rather than keeping a strict schedule, I usually follow my dogs’ lead. They generally let me know when they need to go outside/come inside, eat, play, etc. We do at least two feedings a day. Every animal I’ve ever had has had their own unique personality with unique needs. Right now I have big, friendly dogs, but before them I had a grumpy old Yorkie with epilepsy/special needs. I will tailor my care to whatever will be best for your pet(s).

Leann loves all animals, from dogs and cats to dolphins and turtles. I’m pretty sure if an alligator tried to eat her she’d still pet it and tell it it’s a good boy.

Megan is the BEST! When we had our German Shepherd Sadie, we asked her to trim her nails and babysit her a few times while my husband and I went out of town, and I swear that dog came back to us happier than ever! She loves dogs and I am so thankful for that. I can vouch that she will take care of any of your doggos needs! :)

I have 2 cats and 1 dog. My dog absolutely loves her! He always gets excited whenever he sees her, and never wants to leave her side. My 2 cats are a bit skidding with people, but they love Lydia, especially my calico girl. She always comes to her for food because Lydia would always give her treats. Lydia works well with dogs, cats, and even reptiles as she as one herself. She is very kind and outgoing, and is willing to help out in any way. I absolutely recommend her. She is like an animal whisperer; any animal she encounters always loves her.

I have two service dogs, and some times I am not able to take them on my business trips. I will always use Mark Bolin, as he is trustworthy, pays full attention to the dogs, he is kind, he loves my dogs and the dogs are always happy to see him. In fact many times, I fly Mark into my city for him to take care of my dogs. That is just how good he is!

I have known Kalen for most of his life. He was raised around animals loves them , cleans up after them in the yard. Kalen loves his dogs and all dogs. They lay on him and he pets and loves on them. They are his babies. He always has a big smile and a hug for a dog. he’s great with actually all animals especially dogs. he owns dogs and he’s very good with them he takes time to play with them and love on them and teach them. I would certainly let him be my dog sitter if I was going away for a while I trust him all the way
