“Julie is great with Buddy! She has sat with him, given him his meds, walked and played with him. She makes sure I get photos and videos to check in. It’s nice to know there is someone reliable and caring to help with my big, goofy, neurotic dog.”

About: I am a lifelong animal lover providing dependable, attentive care. I treat every pet like family while respecting their unique routines, personalities, and comfort needs. As a licensed esthetician, I’m naturally patient, detail-oriented and committed to creating a calm, clean, and comfortable environment. I understand how important routines are, so I take the time to learn each pet’s individual needs and personality. I have experience caring for my own cats, as well as pet sitting for family and friends’ dogs and cats, including feeding, walks, playtime, administering medication, overnight care, potty breaks, and litter box cleaning. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I currently work 3–4 days a week as a licensed esthetician at Glowbar in Rittenhouse, with shifts typically starting around 2:30 PM, though my schedule can vary slightly week to week. Because of this, I have consistent availability in the mornings, earlier afternoons and on my days off to dedicate to pet care services like walks and drop-ins when needed. I’m very organized and intentional about managing my time, so I’m able to plan my pet care bookings around my work schedule to ensure each pet gets my full attention and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is to maintain their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while their owner is away. I take the time to follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk routines, litter box care, playtime, and any specific preferences the pet may have. I approach each visit with patience, calm energy, and attention to detail. I understand that pets can be sensitive to change, so I move at their pace and focus on building trust so they feel secure with me. I also treat my clients’ homes with the same respect I would my own. I keep everything clean and organized, make sure doors are secured, and always leave the space as I found it. I’m very mindful of safety, including checking water bowls, ensuring pets are comfortable before leaving, and giving updates so owners feel reassured while they’re away. My goal is always to make both the pet and the owner feel completely at ease and genuinely cared for.

“Victoria is very reliable and communicative! She was also very accommodating with some unforeseen changes to the plan. I would HIGHLY recommend her, and will certainly book her again in the future!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs from small to medium, from puppies to seniors! Along with that, I also have a senior dog myself, so I know best on how to handle them and care for them. I’ve interned at a doggy daycare, so I also have knowledge on taking care of multiple dogs at once and keeping their temper in check. GENERAL FYI: I will be free for services throughout breaks & holidays, but during the regular school year, I will be in state college for…you guessed it! College! I’ll have my break times listed below once I get that information in case if you want to book me ahead of time for holidays! I’m currently a college freshman working remotely! So to say that I have a lot of time is an understatement…the amount of time I have this summer is unimaginable! So whether you need someone to walk your dogs every day of the week, or watch them for days, you can be sure that I definitely have the time for that! I’ll make sure that your fur babies will have the most fun with me! I’ll make sure to match their pace with playtime, along with certain breed characteristics, or personal preferences! I tailor myself uniquely to every new animal!

About: I have owned dogs my entire life. Right now I have one but at times I have had three. I worked at a veterinary hospital as a teenager. Over the years friends and family have entrusted me to watch, feed, and care for their dogs. I have had puppies up to elderly dogs. I currently work full time, we have a fairly large yard so I take my dog out twice in the morning. I take him out in the yard when I return home. I take him for a walk after dinner(we call it an adventure!). On the weekends, he loves to go to the park or the beach in the morning. I have a fenced yard. We have a house at the shore so he enjoys going there or to the park depending on the agenda. I take him to the vet appts and my wife and I alternate taking him to the groomers

About: I have taken care of animals my entire life, primarily cats but dogs and fish as well. Most other animals I put extensive research into the care of when considering owning them, and I would be more than happy to use that knowledge to give your animals the best care possible. I am currently working on continuing my education, so having a way to cover my bills that allows me a flexible schedule doing something I love seemed the perfect fit. Raising my own cat, Tabitha, from a kitten to be a very social, outgoing, sweet girl who loves going for harness walks has left me with a healthy appreciation of how well it works if you treat an animal with respect and expect the same. That being said, house rules come first, and I will make sure to enforce them in your absence.

About: About Me Having grown up with dogs for most of my life, I understand that a pet is a family member who deserves undivided attention and care. In my professional life, I am a Special Education Teacher, a role that has gifted me with immense patience, a calm demeanor, and the ability to follow strict routines to the letter. While I don’t currently have animals of my own, I channel my lifelong passion into being the trusted, go-to walker and sitter for friends and family. The Benefit of Undivided Attention Since my home is currently pet-free, your dog or cat receives my 100% devotion without any distractions. I have extensive experience with multi-pet households, managing everything from high-energy play sessions for large dogs to the specific, quieter needs of independent cats. Whether it’s maintaining a strict feeding schedule or providing extra cuddles, I treat every pet with the same love and respect I gave my own for years. Services & Personalized Care Focused Dog Walking: Tailored to your dog’s energy level and sensory needs. Drop-In Visits: Ideal for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime. Reliable Communication: I am highly communicative and will send frequent photo updates so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. My Availability I balance my love for animals with my full-time teaching career, which means I have a very consistent and predictable schedule: Mornings: Available Monday & Wednesday mornings for early walks/feedings (before 7 am). Evenings: Available Tuesday nights and Friday afternoons (after 4:00 PM). Weekends: I am fully available every other weekend, from Friday evening after 4 pm through Monday at 7:00 AM. Bonus Holiday & Summer Availability: As a teacher, I have extended flexibility during Spring and Winter breaks, as well as major holidays. I am also very open and available this coming summer for more frequent walks and drop-ins! Possible boarding and house sitting in the summer. Availability Tuesday Evenings: Available after 4:00 PM for walks or drop-ins. Wednesday Mornings: Available for early visits before 7:00 AM. Weekends: Available every other weekend (Friday 4:00 PM – Monday 7:00 AM) for more frequent visits. Note: As a full-time Special Education teacher, I am used to following routines! While my weekly schedule is consistent, I have a lot of flexibility during school holidays and long weekends. My schedule will be wide open for summer break as I will be nannying only two days per week. If you have a specific need outside these hours, please reach out. I’m happy to see if I can make it work! As a Special Education teacher and a mom, patience and reliability are second nature to me. When providing walks or drop-in visits, I focus on giving your pet my full, undivided attention and maintaining the specific routine they need to feel secure. I am extremely detail-oriented. Whether it's following precise feeding instructions or ensuring your home is locked up tight, I pride myself on sending frequent photo updates so you always have peace of mind. My goal is to be the most dependable part of your pet's day while you are away.

About: I have always been an animal lover. I have experience as both a dog and cat owner. Dogs I especially love playing with and taking out on walks. I do well with cats especially with my calm demeanor. I've found that they often gravitate towards me due to my chill personality. I have a yellow lab who is my baby. I do not do overnight boarding due to him being used to being the only pet for the last few years and he is a lot happier that way. I've sat for my friends and family's pets several times over the years and they've always never had any issues with my services. I work full time Monday through Friday. My schedule does vary some weeks but most days I am available until 7:00 am and again after 7:00 pm. Weekends I will have complete open availability. I cannot house sit but I am available to do drop-ins and even do overnights with the understanding that I will be at my job during the day time hours. I am very attentive as far as a safe environment as well as extremely observant in the case that there is something wrong with your pet.

“Danielle has been great! She walks my chihuahua/terrier puppy 4 days a week and handles my 8 year old Tree Walker Coonhound with care. Danielle is always responsive and has always been flexible when things came up.”

About: I’ve had animals my whole life and love every type breed and size. I am the go to friend when a friend needs someone to come let their dogs out or watch them over a weekend. I have a 3 year old Pitt/Staffy that I rescued when he was very young. I work 4 days a week, which I will typically block off, but am home several times for walks and care. If needing days covered outside my availability, given it would be a good fit and pickup/dropoff works with my schedule, I can try to accommodate. I block off any time I’ll be out of town and mainly just chill at home with my own pitty otherwise. We go on daily walks for the needed exercise and energy burn. My apartment is smaller but we have a great neighborhood to walk in. We have Pennypack park I go to for walks frequently and visit other outdoor dog parks in Jersey once a weekend. I have an extra crate if it’s needed and lots of toys.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10 or 11, and that's when I also started working on a ranch. Until about 2019 I took care of dogs, chickens, horses, and cats. Animals are a very important part of my life and I'm very good at taking care of them. Taking care of pets is a full-time job, but it's one that I've enjoyed my entire life. I take care of animals in some way everyday and everywhere I've gone. Everything in my house is pet proof and I have hardwood floors just in case there are any accidents. There are gated off and inaccessible areas that the cats can get into but the dogs can't. Everybody has a space. I also have a fenced in yard for them to explore. I live in a very nice neighborhood as well, so it's a safe area to walk the dogs.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, developing a deep passion for their care. Since a young age, I’ve walked countless dogs for family members, gaining valuable experience handling different breeds and temperaments and currently working walking dogs and cats of types of breeds on the platform Wag! My love for animals goes beyond just dogs and cats—I’m comfortable caring for all kinds of animals, big and small. Whether it’s playful puppies, curious cats, birds, small mammals, or even reptiles, I ensure they receive the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m young, fit, and full of energy, always ready to provide the best care, whether it’s running with a high-energy dog, socializing with a shy pet, or tending to the unique needs of different animals.You can also find me over at WAG!CAREGIVER where I have a 94% DIRECT REQUEST ACCEPTANCE RATE AND A 5.0 STAR REVIEW SERVICE WITH MULTIPLE REVIEWS AND 87 completed services. I’m available for boarding, sittings, walks, etc all several days a week and have a flexible schedule. As a full-time college student-athlete, I balance my studies with part-time work through Uber and Grubhub. However, with many of my classes being online, I’m home often and able to provide plenty of attention and care to pets. Whether it’s boarding, exercise, or playtime, I ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I live in a spacious home with my mom, featuring a large fenced yard for pets to play safely. My friendly but shy miniature Dachshund enjoys company once he warms up. He’s harmless, but he might “poop his pants” at the sight of anyone new or any new dogs!😂 My girlfriend visits often, adding to the welcoming environment. With great walking routes nearby, I ensure plenty of exercise, playtime, and a cozy, loving space for every pet in my care.

“Dana was excellent with my dog! She was prompt, had good communication, has a somewhat flexible schedule and followed the routine I asked. I highly recommend Dana and will be having her care for Buck again.”

About: Hi. My name is April and I always had dogs in my life. I personally own dogs and cats and I love every single one of them. Animals need love and to feel safe. I have experience pet sitting and walking. I know how important it is to give our fur babies everything they need to feel loved and happy. I have personally have given medicines in case you baby needs a little extra love. I love cuddling, playing and just enjoy time with these babies. If you have cats as well as dogs I have no problem taking care of them as well. I also have experience with dogs that are energized like a lab and dogs that have anxiety like my Chihuahua. I am here to help and make sure your babies are well taken care of. I currently work a full time job but I have a flexible schedule so there is plenty of time for playful pups and lovable cats. I do not board animals because of my currently living situation. I also believe it is better for the pets to remain in their own environment for a pet sitting.

About: I treat every pet as if it were my own. I’ve owed three dogs in the past years , two of which were rescues. I worked at a greyhound shelter in the past. I grew up with a cat as child and always been drawn to animals. My house is pet friendly and is a three story row house with a fenced in yard, on a quiet block. I love taking care of animals and will make sure your pet is treated with love and respect! My dog is a friendly and playful Jack Russell mix who loves his walks. My goal is to provide love and company for your pet when you can’t be with them. Whenever I go to someone’s house with pets, they instantly become my best friend!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for a wide range of pets. From loyal dogs and curious cats to playful ferrets, talkative birds, and even snakes — I’ve done it all and truly enjoy the unique personality every animal brings. I’ve owned and cared for large breeds, including a Cane Corso, and I currently live with two wonderful dogs: a special needs Labrador who requires extra attention and care, and a sweet (and slightly quirky) pit bull. These experiences have taught me how to be patient, attentive, and adaptable to any pet's needs, whether they require medical support, behavioral understanding, or just some extra cuddles. Whether your pet needs a calm companion, structured playtime, or special accommodations, I’m confident in my ability to provide a safe, loving, and reliable environment while you’re away. I treat every pet like family, because to me they are. I currently work full time during the week at night time but have availability from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. mon-fri. Weekends are usually pretty open. I have a fenced in yard and have have the availability to be able to provide a safe environment for your pet. As well as plenty of time to give attention
