House Sitting in Academy Gardens, Philadelphia

“Danielle was on time, professional and communicative. We asked to extend our visit by 30 min on short notice and she was very accommodating. It’s clear our puppy had a great time with her!”

About: After 8+ years of caring for fur babies, I love to make sure that everyone is comfortable. Its important to keep your pets safe and feeling like they're staying with a friend. I work a computer job so I'm available to keep a close watch on your loved one. My schedule very flexible, Monday through Sunday works! I have two fur babies that are very social and kind, I live across from a fenced park so going out to play is a must.

“Cole did an amazing job watching my dog Rita. I received pics the entire time and felt comforted knowing Rita was in good hands.”

About: I have 3 dogs of my own and have cared for neighbors dogs all throughout my life- i’m comfortable with all dogs and one of my own has diabetes so I am knowledgeable about administering insulin. I currently work a full time job but not the normal 9-5 daily routine so depending on the days my hours would vary but plenty of time to walk, feed, or care for some doggos! I would care for your dogs in your home like I treat mine at home. Lots and lots of love, attention, and of course walks!

“Emily is the perfect dog sitter! She came for a Meet n Greet and I could tell she was very confident handling dogs. She was a great house guest, left my place very neat & tidy and while we were away, she texted us with photos & updates. I almost hate to boast about her because I don't want her to get booked up!!!”

“Haley was awesome with my dog and two cats. She gave them lots of attention and gave updates with pictures. My dog can get a little depressed when we are away but when we got home he was as happy as could be as if I hadn't been gone for a week. I highly recommend and will definitely use her again.”

“Julia was a fantastic dog-sitter and we would definitely hire her again. She took great care of the dogs, sent pictures and updates, left the house tidy, and even wrote a thank you note with the cutest picture of the pups!”

“For three years, I have known Deara. I've witnessed her interacting with animals, particularly cats and dogs. They get along well with her. She did a great job cat-sitting for my pet. She is definitely someone I'd suggest for pet sitting. She would be a fantastic at it, in my opinion.”

“Madison was amazing with my cats, Nelly and Sylvie . I felt comforted knowing they were okay, cause I never go away much. She sent me photos and kept me posted with how they were doing. I would love to have her watch my pets again for my next vacation!”

“Chelsea has always been a lover of animals. She grew up with pets her whole life and always took great care of them. I have known her to be behind caring and loving of any animal she has ever come across.”

“Sophie is very sweet with my dogs. You can tell she loves them. She was very playful with my dogs and I know they had a great time.”

“Porsche, as always was great! She was able to help us and Crumbcake out fairly last minute, helping us to balance between another dog sitter and our local doggie daycare. She's always communicative and makes sure Crumbcake is well taken care of.”

“Watching Raymond handle and care for pets is like no other. When a friend of mine needed someone to take care of her golden doodle he gladly accepted it. Fed her, made sure she went to potty when needed and made sure she had the time of her life.”

“Whenever Samantha cares for my Ava I never worry. I know she is in great hands. Samantha is an outstanding caregiver and Ava just adores her and gets so excited every time she sees her. Samantha always treats Ava like she is her very own. Sam is very professional, dependable and an absolute pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend her. You will not be disappointed!”

“Very reliable and good communication.”

“Emeline is awesome! She watched our new puppy in our home for my wedding. It was chaotic when she arrived, but she went right to work and gave me one less thing to worry about on such a big day. She sent me updates throughout the night and I returned hope to a happy dog. She was even kind enough to tidy my house. My bridesmaids and I left things in quite a disarray. We even managed to rip down the curtains. Emeline rehung them and I was more than grateful for her going above and beyond. My dog seemed to enjoy her company and I really like that Emeline made it a point to meet us and our dog before sitting. She is a gem and I’ll be sure to use her for any other sitting required in the future.”

“April communicated consistently with me throughout her stay with my pup, Mac, and handled his separation anxiety really well! Will definitely book with her again in the future.”

“Brian gave Kobe and Danny the best of care while we were on vacation. Brian is caring, conscientious and detail oriented. I recommend him highly. Mike”

About: I've had pets around me ever since I was born. At one point, I wanted to be a vet. As a kid I was pretty much the neighborhood's resident animal professional. People would come to my house to ask me about pet care and, despite being like 9 years old, I was still trusted with an opinion. Animals have and always will be considered family to me and I promise that I will treat your pets with the same love and respect that I treat mine. I know some basic first aid including taking temperatures, measuring heart rates, bandaging, and even administering medication (they can be a little picky with those pills)! I have a bit of pet sitting experience from my then neighbors at 14, but I've been sitting on my own pets my entire life! I'm pretty much always available. I'll be starting school hopefully in September but I will change my schedules around when that happens. I have no defined plans right now but again I will always keep updated with whatever changes occur. I wouldn't be able to bring your pet to my home (my own pets wouldn't be very happy with that), but I'm very good with following instructions left by my client down to setting alarms when needed. I'm not very messy and I'll clean any mess I would make. In all honesty, I feel pretty nervous when handling things that aren't mine, so you have no worries with nosey behavior from me!

“FABULOUS!! Helped out at the last minute. My dog really took to her! Fantastic person . I would highly recommend ! My dog is special needs and she treated him like her own . You can leave your baby with her and not worry! A+++++++++++++”
