“Amy and her husband did a wonderful job watching our 2 pups while we were gone! I *really* appreciated the notes and photos after each visit. I know my pups appreciated the company and playtime. :)”
About: My wife and I have had dogs together for 19 years. In that time we’ve had 8 dogs, all rescues, ranging from puppy to senior. We have also done dog sitting for many others. We currently have two beautiful girls, both poodle mixes, 6 and 3 years old. We have done training classes and have lots of experience with senior dogs. I am an IT software engineer and I work from home. As a result I have a lot of flexibility in my work schedule, and can do drop-in visits or walks at various times during the day. We have a large fenced-in yard with a pool. We also have barriers to prevent small to medium dogs from getting to the pool, which we did when we had senior dogs.
“Allyson did an amazing job with our elderly samoyed. She had to lift over 80 pounds to assist her in getting up and made sure that all of her needs were met. We will definitely have Allyson come again!”
“Ciara was amazing with our two dogs! She sent me detailed notes and pictures every time she took care of them so I was not worried at all they were in good hands while I was away. They both take medication which Ciara made sure they didn't miss a day of. My one dog loves playing ball and the other loves cuddling, Ciara spent time with both so the dogs were happier than ever! Thank you so much Ciara!”
“Thanks, Mary. The four were in a very good mood when we returned, and that means to us that they were happy with your care. We will be going away in late February and early March and would be very happy if you could care for them.”
About: Hello! I am a graduate of Temple University and a young professional in Philadelphia. I have had dogs my whole life, so I am very comfortable with caring for them. I currently have a mini labradoodle who is very friendly and loves all other dogs and people. I have a car, so transportation will not be an issue. I am pretty flexible and willing to help in anyway I can. I have plenty of experience from just drop in walks and playing to overnight stay/house sitting. Please reach out and let me know how I can best help you! I look forward to hearing from you and helping love your pets. I work from home every day so can tailor my schedule around the dogs needs. I am around most days 8-5pm at least because of working from home. I have had dogs my entire life so I know how important their safety and well-being is. I will make sure to understand your typical day to day to ensure there’s as little disruption to their typical life as possible. If I am hosting the dogs, I have a mini labradoodle who is extremely friendly and loves to play. I’ll make sure to check in on any rules or boundaries the dogs may have to make sure they have a safe environment.
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, I bring a calm and confident presence to every pet I meet. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy who needs structure and playtime or a senior dog who needs patience and gentle care, I tailor my approach to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I’ve cared for dogs recovering from surgery, administered oral medications, and have experience with leash training and crate training. I’m an excellent communicator and will keep you updated with plenty of photos and notes while you’re away so you feel totally at ease. I treat every pet like family and understand how important trust is when leaving your pup in someone else’s care. Whether it’s a weekend away or a long vacation, your dog will feel safe, loved, and at home. Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays throughout the week. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks or evening strolls, I can accommodate your dog’s routine and energy level. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priority, and I make sure they get the attention and care they deserve, no matter the day. In your home, I maintain your dog’s routine as closely as possible—feeding, walking, and playtime included. I keep things tidy, follow your instructions closely, and treat your space with respect. If caring for pets in my home, they’ll enjoy a calm, safe, and clean environment with plenty of supervision and affection. I never leave dogs unattended outside, and I always double-check gates, leashes, and collars to keep your pet safe and secure.
About: I have had many pet’s growing up and always love taking care of, playing, and having fun with my dogs. As of last year I started giving my time to a near by boarding and day care kennel and have absolutely loved it!!! I am currently a graduate student and working an internship which allows me to care for animals in the mornings and late afternoons. The days I do have class I have marked myself unavailable. I have a fenced in yard and three very friendly dogs who love to run and play! My dogs love to go on walks which I hope I have the opportunity to do with yours as well or play in the yard!
About: I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra care. My dog, Gracie, is a certified therapy dog who gives dogs the space they need. I provide plenty of walks, trips to the beach, and belly rubs. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away! I am a retired teacher with a flexible schedule to meet the needs of your pet. Overnight guests will not be left alone for long periods of time. My dog, Gracie, and I will take your pet on several long walks, including evening trips to the beach. We also enjoy snuggles and relaxing with the family. Our condo is dog-friendly, and there are plenty of grassy areas nearby for bathroom breaks. Dogs love to people watch from our gated deck. I can also do regularly scheduled visits to or overnight stays in your home for cats, dogs, or other family pets.
About: I have had cats and dogs my entire life. In addition to having my own dog, I have been entrusted with walking dogs from my home neighborhood and occasionally sitting. I have experience with puppies and kittens, elder animals, and dogs of all shapes and sizes! Your pet will have lots of fun and will be photographed heavily if left in my care. I love animals and can’t wait to meet yours! 🐾 Other than cats and dogs, I’d be willing to learn any other pet care. I have some experience with fish but am open to friends of all species. Currently on summer break, so I’m available all day for all the pet potty breaks or visits that are needed of me throughout our time together. Responsibility is a very integral aspect of my sitting process. I am hyper vigilant with the safety of pets, so your fur baby will come first and remain in their familiar enviroment!

Alicia was someone I felt like i’d known all my life! Instant trust and relatability. An awesome communicator so i never worried about our 21 year old cat while away. She truly went above and beyond, even watering our indoor and outdoor planter that felt dry. So thankful for her - i needed to get away for some much needed R&R and her good care allowed for peace of mind. So thankful!
