Doggy Day Care in Wharton-Hawthorne-Bella Vista, Philadelphia

“Amazing time! I have a very shy and nervous girl and they made her feel at home and comfortable. Really happy I found them and we will be returning!”

“So happy with the entire experience! Samantha took such good care of my Banjo, sent pictures the entire day and kept me updated on how he was doing. I would definitely recommend and will keep her in mind if I need someone to watch Banjo in the future!”

“Nichole is such a doll baby and my Roddy loves her so much. She sends me text during the days and makes me feel so comfortable at work. Definitely my go to sitter.”

“Hannah asssured my worrying heart with my puppy’s first time away. Her photos, kind nature and reassurance that Vivian was doing great just made me so happy. Cannot wait to book her again!”

“Charlotte was amazing. She provided constant updates and pics of Toby. Charlotte really went above and beyond as a caretaker. I will definitely rebook her.”

“Sonshine is amazing! It was my first time leaving Louise with someone she’d never met and from the very first moment I instantly felt at ease- she ran right to him and i knew they’d have a great day together. Sonshine sent a photo update within a few minutes, and Louise was already settled in and happy. And several photo updates over the next few hours. And they were enjoying the sunshine on a cute bench in front of his building when i arrived to pick her back up. Wish I could leave more than 5 stars, such an excellent experience all around. Thank you!”

“We have nothing but great things to say about Amanda! We came to Philly for a long weekend and couldn't find a care facility last minute. We took a chance on Rover and had some worries about trusting a complete stranger with our two anxious pups. Once we saw Amanda's profile, we felt relieved to see someone with such great experience and return clients. Although we doubt we will be able to be repeat clients (since we live a whole state away) we will absolutely search for Amanda if we find ourselves in her area again. Our oldest pup trusted her immediately and stayed by her side for the entirety of his stay. Our youngest was very anxious but came around to her care and felt safe enough to rest with her. We also felt very grateful that her services were focused on one client at a time. I think our boys would have had a harder time coping with other pets around. Amanda has been thoughtful, communicative, and very trustworthy through our whole interaction. You won't regret booking her services! :)”

“Travis was easy to communicate with and my dog came back just as happy as when I left him. He sent lots of pictures and even took my dog to the dog park that is less than a block away.”

“Ruby was great! I appreciate her helping me out for three days. I was in need of a sitter for my puppy because I didn’t want him home alone for hours. She was very friendly, great communicator and sweet towards my pup. I will definitely book with her again!”

“Sam made me feel very comfortable and at ease and Bella felt comfortable and at home right away! He kept me updated with pics throughout the day. At the end of the day, Bella was very happy and so was I. I would definitely recommend Sam and use his services.”

“Caitlyn was amazingly helpful! Mirae had a blast with her! Caitlyn took a great care of Mirae. She helped us, drove, and picked up Mirae when our hands were tied. She walked Mirae multiple times. She was very communicative and responsive, sharing many updates throughout the day. We hope to see Caitlyn again. Many, many thanks!”

“Rob was fantastic with Goose, and even better with me and my anxiety on leaving Goose with a sitter for the first time. Goose came back to me each time tail wagging! Will definitely be calling Rob again in the future.”

“Kelly, thanks so much for suggesting a quick meet and greet ahead of Reggie’s stay with you…meeting and seeing the fenced in yard allowed me to relax knowing Reggie was in great hands! Please give scoots and chuck a treat for me , they really tired out Reggie and he was ready for a nap as soon as we got home! Will be seeing you (and chuck/scoots) again soon!”

“lauryn and hunter were super accommodating and inviting. roman was exhausted and they sent me so many updates! they were also very flexible with my pick up time since I don’t have a strict cut off time at my job! will definitely be booking w them again!!”

“Emily was great with Chai! We’ll definitely be rebooking!”

“Rebekah is a pet owner with 2 cats and 2 dogs and has had pets for many years. She is a very conscientious and loving caregiver to her own animals and would make a great caregiver for someone else's pets. She has cared for my cats on several occasions and they were in very good hands. She is reliable and trustworthy and you can be sure that she will treat your pets as well as she treats her own.”

“Michael is a super nice guy, really cares about the doggies. Sent us pix on a walk, playing, etc. Full-time access to outside for the dogs. Will definitely visit again next time we are in town!”

“Mark has been taking care of my dog ever since he was a puppy. It takes a lot of trust leaving your loved one in someone else’s hands, and Mark is a phenomenal sitter. He is communicative, professional and very friendly. He has plenty of space and is very flexible. He send pictures and videos everyday, which is very comforting when you are away. Mark is the only sitter I would trust my dog with until this day!”
