Harold was absolutely great. I have a dachshund who has a hard time with new people and every day Harold would come and spend time with him (even in the face of very shrill barking). I sincerely appreciated his professionalism and his kindness towards a pup that must have been his most challenging client yet. I will definitely be reaching out to him in the future for whenever i need a walker. Thank you, Harold!

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. My family has always had a family dog. I have experience with all sizes and ages. I am very attentive to a dog’s needs and wants. I am currently a full time graduate student, but my current work is hybrid. I will have plenty of time throughout the day to check in, walk, or play with your pet! I will care for your pets as if they were my own. If I were to be in your home, I will leave it just as/nicer than I found it and your pup will even be happier. I understand that it takes a lot of trust to allow someone into their home and to take care of a loved one, and I will do everything in my power to keep that trust safe and build from it.

About: flexible schedule and genuine love for dogs. I’m dedicated to making sure each dog feels comfortable, cared for, and happy. For walks, they are set to 30 minutes, but the length can vary depending on the weather and your dog’s individual needs and energy level. If you are looking to have home cooked human grade food for your dog, I can provide it at an affordable price! Real food instead of kibbles can improve dog’s health, life span, and soften coat. I am home 24/7! Free to walk your dog whenever the dog needs a walk or is bored. I am flexible with pickup time / drop off as I do know that life happens, and I’m here and happy to help! I like to do a meet and greet first for any ongoing or continuous services to ensure your dog feels comfortable, we’re a good fit, and I fully understand their routine and needs.

About: Though I did not grow up with cats and dogs in my own home, I have taken care of dogs and cats for friends for years. In recent years I have lived with multiple cats of all personality types and breeds (e.g. tabby, persian) as well as a pit mix dog. For most dogs I've sat I have walked, played with & groomed them. I have some experience administering medication, too, for cats and dogs. I am a repeat sitter because I am reliable, trustworthy in other people's homes and loving and responsible towards the furry friend. I care for the animal like they are my own and have developed an affinity for these pets over the years. :') I am returning from being on a long trip traveling around Europe and Asia. Really looking forward to being back home and finding new clients to take care of their furry family members. I like to care for pets in the owner's home, since my home is not suitable for furry friends at this time. I love to play with their toys with them, run and walk with them, but also cuddle with them and give them attention. It definitely depends on the animal, though, as they each have very distinct personalities. I trust you will tell me whether your pet needs more or less extra attention, or how you usually do things.

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life. I grew up taking care of the stray cats on my grandparent's farm, and have been caring for family pets (including dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, frogs, and birds) since I was a young child. I've been walking, feeding, and bathing the pets of family, friends, and neighbors since I was 12 years old. I currently have a 5 year old Mini Australian Shepherd named Luca who I have been caring for and training since he was a puppy. I also have a female tortie cat named Honey who gets along well with dogs. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible. I am always off weeknight evenings and weekends, but I am available to care for your pet anytime of day. I have a fenced in yard and plenty of space in my house. I can board dog-friendly pets at my house with my very energetic pup, or care for them in their own homes. I typically feed and walk dogs 3 times a day, but can accommodate any preferred schedule.

This was my first time using the service and I was amazed by Katherine!! She took care of my baby boy so well, she was caring and loving! 🥰 just exactly what I needed. I truly recommend her services. She walked my boy for 3 days and also my last day I had some inconvenience in which she agreed to take Halo to her home and I had the privilege of enjoyed the sitter over night. She took everything she needed for his care, Halo loved playing with Pollito and being with them!!! I had the most wonderful and amazing experience with her!!! When you need a trusted person to take care of your fur baby Katherine is the one!! Thank you so much!!!

About: Genuine, from birth Animal Lover. I've had dogs my entire life but I just love all animals. I know basic obedience and understanding of animal behavior. The time I spend with your pet will be full of attention, fun, exercise and learning. I don't work another job so all of my attention is on your baby. I have experience with caring for a senior dog with health issues (my own sweet girl). I spent the last two years of her life learning the ins and outs of caring for a senior dog and feel very confident in that area as well. I don't work at another job. My time is mine. I do spend some of my time at another home but this will be reflected in my calender. I live in a gated condo with beautiful tree lined grounds and im right next to acres of public space for walking, playing, running, etc. I treat any pet inside just like family.

About: I love spending time with different types of pets. I am not allergic and would dedicate time to making sure your pet is in a loving, caring, and safe environment so you would be at ease. I am working remotely l and would be homebound for the rest of the year. I have the time to dedicate to your pet's needs. I took care of my roommates' pets during my senior year of college and loved having temporary times with her dog based on my schedule. I am very flexible and am willing to negotiate if there are necessary changes. I have one roommate and I live in an apartment complex that has sufficient space for pets. I really hope that your pet will enjoy our space as much as we do! I am about to graduate medical school and I have no requirements until then so I am able to give your pet my undivided attention. I give them all the attention they desire. I allow them to roam the area and get acquainted. I also go on walks and would do that for dogs. My unit is an open area for cats as well and they can roam however they would like.

About: I’m a St. Joe’s student and a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets. I have a 5-year-old goldendoodle of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’ve also watched plenty of dogs and cats for friends and family, and I’m comfortable with all types of pets and personalities. I love going on walks, spending quality time with animals, and making sure they get the attention they need. What sets me apart is that I’m very attentive, reliable, and I always keep owners updated with lots of pictures so you know your pet is happy and safe. As a student at St. Joseph’s University, my schedule can vary, but I’m very flexible and happy to communicate to find times that work best for you and your pet. I’m also available on weekends. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible in their own home. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, and any specific care needs, so pets feel safe in their familiar environment. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s personality and needs. I’m also very respectful of clients’ homes and keep everything clean and organized. I prioritize safety, reliability, and communication, and I always keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pet is happy and well cared for.
