Dog Boarding in Academy Gardens, Philadelphia

“Marilyn was absolutely amazing. Very kind and caring, sent photos and always responded to any text messages. She took great care of our cat. We chose Marilyn because she is a retired nurse and our cat is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day. We would definitely use her again and refer her to her others in need of pet care. Thanks Marilyn!”

“5 Stars - Highly Recommended! I recently had the pleasure of hiring Daniel to take care of my dog , and I couldn’t be happier with the care, it was clear that he genuinely loves animals and has natural way with dogs. Throughout the entire time I was away, I was provided regular updates, including photos. I highly recommend Daniel for anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and trustworthy dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking again in the future!”

“My dog was very reluctant to leave and that's how you know a caretaker has done a great job. Gabriela and her husband both are genuinely nice people who love dogs. What more could you hope for in a caretaker?”

“Megan watched Russell overnight and although I was nervous leaving him, Megan was the best at making me feel comfortable and at ease . She sent me lots of videos and pictures and very frequent updates . She is dependable, responsible , and loving. He came back tired from playing and happy . I would absolutely use Megan again in the future !”

“Tatiana is an amazing sitter, she took care of my dog while we went on a trip for 4 days, she sent me daily pictures and updates. This was my first time using Rover and I am very pleased with her service. I would recommend Tatiana to anyone looking for a sitter.”

“Kate has been amazing with my pets and I have two Bengal cats who require different care than typical cats and they warmed up to her immediately and trust her. She has also watched my two parrots and she’s knowledgeable regarding their care and I trust her implicitly and I always know when I come home from a trip my pets have been taken care of.”

“It was my first time leaving my dog anywhere I was nervous but Hali was amazing with my pup Leyla. Leyla could get very anxious when she’s around people that she doesn’t know and Hali made her feel welcome. The communication was wonderful she provided pictures at all time. Definitely will use Hali again to dog sit my Leyla.”

“Yuhan took excellent care of my puggle, Sonny! She sent me pictures and updates and was very flexible on the timing of drop-off and pick-up. Highly recommend!”

“Hanna was amazing! She was very prompt with communication, flexible with pick up and drop off times, sent me a ton of picks and videos and my pup had a blast. Will definitely use again the next time I’m out of town.”

“Carla is amazing! She is so caring and a very kind human. She took amazing care of my dog and made sure to send me frequent updates, lovely videos and pictures. She took my dog to the park and on frequent walks as well. I am so thankful and I will definitely use her services again.”

“ames was awesome! Right from the moment I saw Ash, my Pitbull terrier, happily playing with the other dogs in the yard, I knew she was going to have the best time. James made everything super easy by responding to my message right away, which was a huge relief. After our meeting, I knew I could just relax and not worry about constant updates or interruptions—Ash was clearly in great hands! Since her day with James, Ash has been even better behaved and really seems to listen to her commands more. She’s definitely come home a happier and calmer pup! I couldn’t be more grateful for the care and attention she got, and I’m already looking forward to booking again. Highly recommend James for anyone looking for a fun and smooth experience!”

“Victoria was absolutely amazing and I would recommend her to all of my pup parents! She scheduled a meet and greet prior to the boarding and she was very accommodating to my busy schedule. She was communicative during Loki’s stay and even sent photos which I appreciated.”

“My first time leaving Maui with anyone but family, and my longest trip away from him! Every worry I had about that was put at ease right away. Jacob took great care of him and I couldn’t be happier.”

“Shanice was great, excellent communication, sent pictures over. Cayde came home happy and to his normal routine. Highly recommended and will schedule with her again.”

“Christina did an AMAZING job watching our puppy Toby. He has a lot of energy and she made sure he was fed, walked, and happy! We were gone for 10 nights and i got multiple pictures and videos. Christina remains our go-to sitter and we highly highly recommend her!”

“Michael is great, very friendly and responsive. He took great care of my dog. He has a small puppy, Russ, and it turns out prefect for Dante and she likes to have companion. I like Michael as he took the dog out frequently and not just staying at home For sure will go back again and ask for Michaels help. ”

“Hardy and his daughter Harmony could not have been more accommodating for Opie's first overnight stay. After a boarding situation I had fell through for my newly adopted Husky mix I needed last minute coverage (about a week out) for a short international trip. Hardy and Harmony were able to accommodate us for an extremely early drop-off because of a flight/airport situation and were super cool about it. I got regular picture and video updates throughout her few day stay, and got to meet and chat with Hardy during pickup. My pup is crate trained and having someone who is able to accommodate that and keep her consistent while I'm away is integral to making sure she stays successful with it. Hardy is super knowledgeable about dogs and thoughtful about who he schedules together to ensure everyone is chill and as the owner of a high energy guardian mix, that gives me a lot of relief knowing my girl won't be on edge the whole time I'm gone. If you're in the area and considering Hardy please do not hesitate to book. He truly takes care of your animals as if they were his own. Also, in my short time with my new pup I haven't seen her half as happy and worn out as she was when I picked her up ... like others reviews have mentioned and I will definitely concur, Hardy is a dog whisperer! Have a wedding coming up in a couple months and am already working with Hardy to rebook because of what a positive, easy and affordable experience we had our first time around. Book with Hardy today, you and your pup will not be disappointed. Thanks again Hardy and Harmony!”

“Michelle is an awesome pet sitter! I got pictures and texts daily. My dogs Rylee and Murphy were well cared for and happy. I was able to enjoy my time away knowing they were in good hands.”

“Katherine P. is Pepper's auntie 🤣🥰. We are always so happy when Katie is available because she really cares for our furdaughter like her own. So happy we found her. ❤👍🏽💐”
