Will definitely be reaching out again soon!”
About: I’ve handled all kinds of animals, have a few friends whose pets I watch every now and again. Biting And scratching is fine as long as it’s not their only personality trait. Happy to just sit and chill with your goofy pup or take long walks with em around philly. I work a standard 9-5 Monday through Friday job, so weekends are when I’m free mostly but if you schedule it fair enough ahead of time I can do a Thursday (after work) to Monday night deal! I usually spend time with the animal, I love sitting and doing nothing and napping. If your pet loves to nap I’m your girl. But if your pup needs a good long walk let me know cause I can exhaust us both for a good sleepy time later.
“Randi was GREAT. I felt very comfortable leaving her with my cat. She kept me very well-informed the entire time, and made sure to keep me updated with photos. Definitely will be rebooking:)”
About: Hello, I recently moved to Philly to pursue a second master's degree and am missing the time I usually spend with all my cat and dog friends. For the last few years, I've been my friends' go-to pet sitter/house sitter, which has enabled me to develop close bonds with their animals. Now, that I am in a new city, I am hoping to establish some bonds with new furry friends. If you are looking for a mature person to pay extra special attention to your dog and/or cat, please don't hesitate to contact me. House-sitting + dog-care experience: - two Shiba Inus: I stayed in their home and cared for the pets 24/7, including walks, trips to the dog park, feeding, vet visits, bathing, medicine administration, elaborate treat preparations, and trips to dog-friendly coffee shops, etc. Now, I count myself among the many people who love the quirky Shiba Inu breed. - two puppies (terrier mix) and 8-year-old Yorkshire terrier. Puppy-care included playing and snuggling with them, helping to toilet-train them, keeping a close eye on them so they didn't chew on something dangerous or ruin furniture, as well as feeding and walking them. The older dog needed some one-on-one attention away from the two little puppies. - one rat terrier. This dog, Roodles, is a former street dog. He's not a fan of other dogs, so Roodles likes to take quiet walks in his neighborhood and play fetch with some of his favorite squeaky toys. Dog care for Roodles includes toileting, feeding, and calming him down when he barks at other dogs passing by the house. - one pitbull. One of the most affectionate dogs I've ever met, Bubba needed attention and playtime. Bubba and I went for long hikes and played a lot of fetch. House-sitting + cat-care experience: - cared for 18-year-old cat, Niko. Niko took many medications, some of which were administered orally while others were added to his food. I consider myself a master at hiding medicine inside delicious cat treats. - cared for two cats, Gwendolyn and Orla. I've cared for Gwendolyn for about 10 years and Orla for about 7. Gwendolyn could be cranky and required a caretaker who paid attention to her body language and knew how to show her affection. Orla was younger and needed to active playtime with toys. Their care included medicine routines, feeding, litter-box cleaning, and sharing time together. I am currently enrolled in a second master's degree, so I have a very flexible schedule. I take classes three afternoons a week and work remotely some nights during the week. This leaves me with a lot of flexible time to care for pets. I understand that a pet is a member of a family. Therefore, I make sure that owners can reach me at all times while I am caring for their pets. Similarly, if I see a pet behaving in a way that suggests they may have eaten something (not food) or injured themselves, I will contact the owners immediately.
About: Greetings, I have to put this at the top, its first to pay first to serve. If youre inquiring today, you should be booking today. You can always get your money back. You cant expect me to remember the possibility that you’ll be booking on a particular daye you did not officially book to confirm in the calendar. Asking me if Im available weeks before is not the same availability the week of with no secure payment for your spot. I am also a multidog sitter if you cant tell by the pics. Its never solo as I have my own aswell. Hello, I am Maroc, a graduate of The Chicago School of Psychology with an M.A. degree. I have been a star host on Rover over 2 years and I often specialize in hosting multiple dogs. I can on occasion offer pick up services if needed, and charge the Uber distance there and back. First time users of the app can receive a discount, please inquire about it to me. Please message me first if you want to pick up your dog hours early, I work around the schedule you provided. Please dont assume I can always make adjustments on the fly. This is a first pay first serve standard. I have availability for your dog the date of your request, waiting to secure a spot a day before, I may not have the space to accommodate. Most if not all dogs will settle their excitement about an hour after knowing a new dog is present. Most dogs also are fine with each other after a walk. Also bedding is fine, but please be cognizant that some dogs fine certain bedding attractive for peeing or marking. This is the very reason I can no longer have a fur carpet myself lol. And please make sure the bedding is pliable and not too large to fit in a washer. If your dog tends to pull strongly, I strongly recommend using an anti-pull or no-pull collar. This is a safety measure for both myself and your dog. I am conscious of the importance of time management and would appreciate your diligence in updating me promptly on any schedule changes. Contrary to anecdotes about sitters with stringent expectations, my approach is rooted in understanding the inherent nature of dogs. While I anticipate typical behaviors such as urination, defecation, or displays of excess energy and anxiety, I assure you of my patience as a dog sitter. Recognizing and accommodating these natural actions is an integral part of my caregiving philosophy. Situated across from Fairmount Park, my residence provides an enriching environment that dogs genuinely enjoy. As I operate Maroc Horus, an online business, I work from home, ensuring consistent companionship for the dogs under my care. For a more comprehensive understanding of my work, I invite you to explore Maroc Horus online. My commitment is to create a positive and enjoyable experience for your pup, fostering engagement and eliciting smiles. I strive for excellence, aiming for 5-star experiences, and I am open to accommodating specific requests to maintain a high level of service. In instances where expectations may fall short, I will proactively seek feedback to address any concerns. Thank you for entrusting me with the care of your furry companion. I look forward to the opportunity of creating a delightful experience for both you and your pup. Best regards, Maroc I work from home Philly , I have a small business operated mostly online. I work in the metaphysical space, and I have free time to spend ample amounts of time and enjoy pets. I service daycare and overnight (boarding) services. I also do light grooming and excessive fur removal for small fee of $20 additional to the stay fee ( Check pics for references). (I cancel any pending requests after 3 days, this not only hinders services from other clients who are serious but also stifles services and can lead to over crowding) They are respected as souls as they should be. Cared to the extension of love and life force understanding. This will be an experience to connect and build synergy in a peaceful environment. (I cancel any pending requests after 3 days, this not only hinders services from owners who are serious but also takes money from supporting me)
About: Hi! My name is Grace and I'm a dog lover with experience boarding and walking dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I have worked with dogs ranging from fiesty little Chihuahuas to big lovable Golden Retrievers. I am experienced with making anxious or reactive dogs comfortable. Let's have a chat to see if we're a fit. I have a flexible schedule, as I work a hybrid 9-5. For walking services, I am available during lunch time on weekdays, and after 5pm. I am also fully available on weekends. For pet-sitting services, I can stay at your home for as long as you need. I am not boarding at my home at this time. I believe in making your dogs as comfortable as possible by sticking to the routines they already know. In our preliminary chat I will make sure to take note of the rules and boundaries your pets already live by. I make sure they're not just fed, watered, and walked -- but that they know they're safe and cared for while they are missing you.

18. Charity B.
“I would trust Charity with my pets lives time and time again as well as the care of our home. Charity stayed with our pets while we were traveling, for numerous long holiday weekends as well as some drop in day care as we needed it. Charity is thoughtful, very even keel, patient, is responsive and clear with her communication. She took exceptional care of our two Shibas and our cat, and continues to love them as deeply as we do. She went above and beyond taking them to different places to walk, ensuring they were bathed and groomed in a timely manner, and took them to the vet when it was needed. What impresses me most is how Charity understands our pets. She sits on the floor at their level and really listens to what they need. Our pets need a lot of one on one attention, Charity will spend the time petting them and playing with them and ensuring each of their unique needs are met. Our pets get so excited when they see Charity has come to stay with them! Their true best friend! She has taught us how to be better dog parents with her patience and ability to meet each of our pets where they are at in life. You couldn't ask for a better human to be in your fuzzy kids' lives.”
19. Maroc W.
“There’s people who love cats and then there are people who likely should’ve been born as a cat.lol Ever since I’ve known Maroc, he has had a very close bond with animals. He adores his cat Binx. He adorns Binx in crystals and takes pictures with him all the time. Not only does he just love Binx, he genuinely cares about the well being of any pet he’s known. I’m also pretty sure he loves cats slightly more than humans, so he’d be the perfect person for Rover.”
20. Grace R.
“We have left our puppy with Grace multiple times, even when we were traveling for over a month. She took great care of our dog, was always in touch with us keeping us up to date with everything. Our puppy had a great time while he was with Grace. I definitely recommend Grace as your dog sitter without any worry!!”
