About: I've had pets since I was 6, ranging from an older Jack Russel Terrier, shy/abused German Shepherd/Rottweiler, and now a hyper Pitbull! I accept the personalities of all animals I currently work a full-time job. I have flexible lunch breaks and can contribute to care within the 11-1 PM schedule. I am available after 3:30 PM until 8 PM every weekday if given 2-3 days notice. On weekends, if I am not traveling, I can be flexible. I am an early riser!!! So if you need a 6 AM walk, I am SUPER happy to oblige. I'm available to take dogs on walks, supervise play time in a fenced in area, or adjust to whatever exercise your dog may need. I'm happy to feed and water them and provide care specific to their needs.

Alana was fantastic. She helped us out on short notice around the holidays and she was amazing with our dog and cat. She was super friendly and accommodating, and our pets took to her right away. We definitely recommend her.

Cara is the BEST! My buddy Apollo is always happy to see her because he knows he’s going for his walk that he loves. Cara is always pleasant, great with Apollo and has concern for his welfare whether it’s too hot, if he can have a treat, or if he pooped haha! Cara rules!

About: I have been dog sitting for neighbors and family friends for years! I have done overnights, quick day care, and variety of trip needs! I love taking my own dogs for walks, as well as play and chill with them, so always treat others dogs like my own! I’ve worked with puppies, elder, and multiple dogs at once! I have recommendations from past experiences upon request! As of now, I offer assistance within West Chester, Glen Mills, Wilmington areas (and open to more locations), but am moving to Boston August 2! My routine can vary by request of the owner! In prior experience, I have worked part time and full time, ensuring the dog is let out multiple times a day, as well as fed. I want to make sure the dogs routine isn’t affected once their owner leaves! Our dogs have electric shock fences, but once let out, I still watch them to make sure they use the bathroom or get out loose somehow. I take my dog for walks 2-3 times a day, all varying in time and distance, but make sure they are getting their exercise and time outside (when weather permits)!

About: My beloved pet Cookie just passed away at age 18. I gave her plenty of love and care and will do the same for your dog/s. Can’t wait to snuggle with your pet and treat him or her like Family. I live in the Garnet Valley School District and have lots of time to give your dog happy hellos, soft snuggles and loyal Friendship. I have experience in letting dogs out from at their home and taking dogs for walks when owners are away on vacation. I love making dogs happy with kind words, food/treats, sitting next to them and rubbing their belly. My home is perfect for boarding because I live in a quiet, traffic free area and it safe to walk or board your adorable pet. I also have a gated deck to enjoy fresh air when the weather is nice. If your preference is to leave your furry friend in your home, I would gladly come out to your home to look after your pet/s in their familiar environment.

About: My name is Eleanor. In the last year we recently lost our own senior dogs who were 17, 16 and 15. We fostered and subsequently adopted a corgi puppy who we nursed through a PDA heart surgery. He is a happy, healthy pup and LOVES being with other dogs. I am also the mom of five children who are 13, 12, 9 and 4 year old twins. I have provided pet care services for many years but started back up after the addition of our twins :) My husband works from home which allows me to come help you with your furry friend! I am on the board of a senior dog rescue called Senior Dog Haven and Hospice and ran it for 10+ years until I recently passed on the reins. We rescue dogs aged 7 and up that have found themselves homeless later in life. I love animals, especially elderly ones, and have dedicated my life to their care. I have fostered almost 100 senior dogs in the last 10 years and have a ton of experience with special needs dogs. I would love to come love on your dog and spoil them anytime you need me! We require your furry friend to be kid and dog friendly as they will get lots of love from our pack of children and our puppy, Gus Gus! I am a stay at home mom with a husband that works from home. Our schedule is extremely flexible and someone is almost always home. I have a one acre fenced in yard that has a small dog and large dog fenced in area. I love animals and will always take the very best care of them! We often host doggy day care days to tire out pups! We take caring for your furry loved ones seriously, and carry our own insurance coverage for your added peace of mind!

About: Welcome to Aaron’s Boarding, a 4 bedroom ranch house on an acre of land that includes a private fenced in yard for lots of activities and play. We are pleased to announce that we now offer dog walking and hourly yard rental through SniffSpot, Melanie’s Play yard. My team and I have taken care of over 100 foster and boarder dogs including the SCPA and training service dogs. We’ve cared for moms with litters of 10 puppies, young adult, adult, senior, special needs including diabetes and all types of physical disabilities. We have been boarding dogs since April 2020. We are able to take dogs up to 65 pounds and any dogs over 65 pounds will be considered if trained well, Rover just doesn’t have a setting to say that. Most of our clients choose us because we offer private boarding for their dog only. However, our business has grown, and we now accept a maximum of 3 dogs. The dogs can either come from the same home or they are friends or we sometimes negotiate a cross board through a meet and greet. We have a highly desirable environment due to not having any dogs, cats, or small children. We provide bowls and crates. Bring dog beds, food, treats, bones and toys. We do not provide those. We are a team of 3 with 24 hour service. IMPORTANT!!! We only board dogs. Dogs must be crate trained. We only accept dogs that sleep in a crate at night. No exceptions. We only take dogs that are microchipped and spayed/neutered. All new dogs are required to have a meet and greet before being accepted for boarding. Any potential cross boarding is approved through a meet and greet between families. We look forward to keeping your furry friends safe while you are away. We only take puppies older than 16 weeks and they must be house trained, crate trained, don’t jump or bite and sleep through the night. Don’t forget to use my promo code if this is your first time using Rover to save $20 on your first booking https://www.rover.com/sit/aaronp13595 Aaron's boarding is a full time family run business with a total of 3 trained adults. We are 3 trained adults with years of experience. Our home is safe for dogs, they have full run of the house and are walked on a leash on our property as well as in the neighborhood. We are happy to take car rides, and they would get plenty of snuggles and playtime. I have loved dogs my whole life and enjoy looking after them and their different personalities, I look forward to meeting with you and your dogs. Please Note: We are unable to board medium to high shedding dogs such as German Shepherds, Huskies, Akitas and similar breed. If they are a mixed breed please contact me for additional information.

When I was injured and unable to walk my dog, Luna, Matthew was an absolute lifesaver. He showed up every single day; rain or shine; right on time, without fail. His reliability and dedication gave me such peace of mind during a challenging time. Not only was he dependable, but Luna absolutely adores him. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he walks. Matthew’s consistency, kindness, and professionalism have been an essential part of both my recovery and Luna’s happiness. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker.

About: I've been watching the pets of friends, relatives, and neighbors since I was about 18. I've given insulin to both dogs and cats during my time pet-sitting. I currently own and care for two very spoiled female guinea pigs. During the week, I work full-time with a hybrid home/office schedule. On the days I am in the office, I do leave at mid-day to finish my workday from home. I can be available for bathroom breaks all throughout the day and go on walks/play with your pets in the evening. I work from a laptop, so I have the ability to relocate my workspace if necessary. I am able to provide all-day availability on weekends. Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that need to be accounted for. I currently have experience taking care of furry ones of all ages and medical conditions.

About: I provide reliable, loving care for pets of all ages and needs, from drop-in’s, walks, or overnight stays. With experience, I understand that each pet is unique and deserves personalized attention. You can trust your pet will feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while you’re away. I am home for winter break right now so I have lots of availability during the holiday season (Mid December through January 17th) for all your pet care needs! Since I am a college student I am only available when home for breaks- I will also be available March 6-15th and over the summer when my semester ends in early May! Happy to provide whatever services you need for your pet at home, whether that be bathroom breaks, walks, feeding, administering medication or staying overnight with your furry friend.

About: I understand how important it is to keep your pets comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away. I am a pediatric nurse as well, and would like to provide walks, drop-ins, feeding, and medication administration while you are away. I have volunteered at a golden retriever rescue in Lancaster, and have experience with large dogs. I treat every pet like they're my own and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind. I volunteer at my local SPCA as soon as I turned 14, and have had labs and golden retrievers in my adult life. I currently take my black lab to the dog park, hikes, car rides, and know how important it is to give them attention when their family is away. I also am a very confident walker with large dogs or dogs that pull on the leash. I am a pediatric nurse at an hospital, and work 3 days a week. I have one daughter who is now a teenager, and I am finding myself with more spare time. I would like to care for animals on my downtime during the week/weekends. I live in a large walkable neighborhood with sidewalks. I do have a black dog that has been going to dog parks since he was a puppy, and he enjoys other dogs. I will absolutely allow your dog to sleep in my bed, and will give them constant attention. My house backs up to the woods, and I would love to take them for walks out there as well.

Joy is amazing! Joy signed on to take care of my mom’s dog during a recent illness. We felt completely at ease from the moment we met her. She is someone both people and pets feel totally comfortable around. Joy was communicative, flexible, responsive, kind, and completely reliable. And she clearly loves dogs! We feel lucky to have found our way to her and to have developed an ongoing caretaking relationship. Highly recommend!!

Jen's open communication throughout the process of booking her to walk my dog and on the day of the walk were very much appreciated. She took pictures on the day, as well, which helped me to see that Ginger was being cared for well. It gave me peace of mind while I was away. I will definitely book her again the next time I need someone to take care of my dog.
