Matthew took good care of our very large, reactive dog while we were away. He sent us photos daily and was good at communicating if he had any questions. We will definitely be asking Matthew to watch our pup next time we go away.

Heather was absolutely fantastic! She was extremely communicative from start to finish and has such a warm, positive personality. Our Boston Terrier, Lukin, is usually very anxious, but he did great with her — which says a lot! She took wonderful care of both him and our house while we were away. We really appreciated her updates and photos which kept us at ease. I can’t recommend Heather enough — she’s truly awesome and we will definitely be booking her again!

Sabrina was fantastic. She was thankfully available for a last minute house sitting with Franklin. He's a rescue so it can be tricky getting him used to folks. She had no problem getting him out for walks and hanging out with him. Truly appreciative!

Leslie was so wonderful- I haven’t left my 3 little guys without family in over 10 years. They are very nervous little guys and have some quirks - she made it all work and made them feel safe. Sent me pictures and updates 2-3 times a day. I could not be more grateful!

Paz did a wonderful job sitting my dog at my house while I was away. She texted me with photos about twice a day, and asked me some questions that she wanted to know. I already booked her for another trip I'm going on this winter. I have no complaints at all about her care for my dog.

Lisa was amazing with Panda! I booked her with less than a week’s notice, and she was incredibly responsive and professional from the start. She took the time to do both a virtual meet-and-greet and an in-person visit beforehand to make sure she and Panda were a good fit and that she was familiar with everything. During the sitting, she kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She also made sure Panda got plenty of activity, taking him on at least three walks. I would absolutely recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter—I’d definitely book with her again! 🐾

Brad did a fantastic job caring for our senior Greyhound in our home during an international trip. He was communicative, responsive, and asked questions when needed to ensure he was providing the best care for our girl. I’m very grateful that Brad’s professionalism allowed us to have a worry-free vacation! And a bonus- the house looks even better than when we left it.

Kai and Devon were great pet sitters for us during the week that we were away on vacation! They communicated well with us and provided updates on how our pets were doing. They kept our house clean and even took the time to wash sheets, towels, and blankets before they left. Overall they did a great job for us and we would definitely book them again!

Laura was absolutely awesome! Laura truly was the best! She took the very beat care of our home and dogs. Our dogs (who are a bit needy and one special needs) had a smooth and seamless transition into her care. She was thought forward, kind, caring, diligent and followed all our dogs care needs and schedule perfectly. She treated our pups and our home as her own and we are so GRATEFUL! We feel so blessed to have met her and to have her care for our beloved dogs. We were very impressed & our dogs were never so calm upon our return ever. She is wonderful and comes highly recommended and we definitely hope to use her again.

Gavin dropped in on my pup who is post-surgery and needs to be kept quiet. She loved Gavin! He sent several photos and descriptive updates, which I always appreciate from sitters, and especially appreciated for this visit. We also have shy cats who came around to him. Will definitely book again!

Cole was spectacular with our older basset hounds. He was able to get both of them on walks (not easy with one being a little grumpy with new people). Both dogs while happy to see us, didn’t seem like they had been stressed while we were away- a big improvement for us! Cole also kept our home on great order, dealt with a clogged sink, and even watered my plants (without me asking!). We can’t wait to use him again for future times away- the boys seemed to enjoy his presence.

About: Hi! My name is Erika, and I’m a dependable, active, and compassionate pet sitter who truly enjoys caring for animals. What sets me apart is my patience, empathy, and attentiveness to each pet’s individual needs. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, and I always make it a priority to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m physically active and love going on walks, playing outside, and keeping energetic dogs engaged. I’m also patient and gentle with older pets and am comfortable assisting with senior dog care, including administering oral medications, following feeding schedules, and providing extra attention and reassurance when needed. I’m highly organized, responsible, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I also value communication and will provide regular updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals! I am currently available on weekends and Friday afternoons, which allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to your pets. During the week, I am generally more available in the evenings, as I am currently completing an HR internship at a company in West Chester. That being said, I understand that every pet and owner has different schedules and needs, so I am more than willing to be flexible with timing and any other concerns. I’m happy to communicate and work together to create a schedule that is best for both you and your pet! I understand that pets feel most comfortable when they are in a familiar, safe, and stress-free environment. That’s why I currently only offer pet care services in the pet owner’s home. Staying in their own space helps pets maintain their normal routines, feel secure, and experience less anxiety while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, consistency, and communication. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, house rules, and routines to ensure your pet receives the same level of care they are used to every day. I also make sure pets always have a clean, comfortable environment and plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. Building trust with both pets and owners is extremely important to me. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel confident and reassured while they are away. My goal is to create a calm, caring, and dependable experience where both pets and owners feel safe, comfortable, and supported.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and grew up in a household with multiple dogs at all times. I spent a lot of time helping care for them and became very comfortable handling dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels from a young age. I have experience with daily walks, feeding routines, bathing, cleaning ears, administering medication, and caring for senior dogs or dogs with mobility issues like arthritis and hip problems. I’m also comfortable helping dogs that may need extra patience, attention, or supervision. I recently graduated college and currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting visits. I always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions provided by owners. I’m experienced with crating dogs when needed, handling dogs on walks, and caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and medical needs.

About: I've had dogs my whole life that I have taken care of and am comfortable caring for dogs of different ages and personalities. I currently help care for a dog that me and my family sit for during the day while his owners at work. I provide supervision, walks and playtime. I also have helped foster puppies through a rescue program where they will stay overnight and I will watch them. With this, experience I am able to adapt well to all different kinds of dogs needs. I enjoy spending time with dogs and strive to create a positive experience for both dogs and their owners. I'm currently working part time for a summer camp from 9-3 on the weekdays. I would be available anytime after 3 to dog sit or walk. For overnights I would be able to do weekends. I could do weekdays I would just have to go to work at 9. I do have a break from 12-1 where I could go check on your dog, feed them, and give them a walk. I would follow each dogs routine and respect every owners home to help make their dog feel comfortable. I will also keep a daily and clear communication throughout my stay.

Sharielle is the best in the business! I actually made sure she was available BEFORE I made my vacation plans because we were flexible but I wanted to make sure she could stay with our dogs again. She sent updates and photos everyday and followed our instructions/preferences for our dogs care. They got plenty of walks and cuddles throughout the week. Additionally, our house was in exactly the same condition as we left because Sheri took care of our house like it was her own.

Danita was the perfect house sitter for Ralphie, he was able to stay comfortable in his own home and she stayed with him the whole time we were gone. Ralphie is getting older and has separation anxiety so Danita was very accommodating. She even watered our plants, collected the mail, and cleaned the bed sheets and towels! We will definitely use her services again!
