“Christie was wonderful in caring for our cat while we vacationed. At our initial meeting with Christie, we were impressed with her interaction with our beloved cat and how nicely he responded to her. During our vacation, we received daily texts with pictures as well as a short paragraph on how things were going. Christie spent time after feeding our cat to pet and interact with him, then sent photos highlighting her daily visits. We unequivocally give our highest recommendation to Christie!”


“Amanda was so wonderful! She was really attentive and responsive while I was away. She gave detailed descriptions of how each visit went. I knew my pet was in good hands!”


“Paz was very responsible and timely. She showed kindness to the cats, cleaned up after them, made sure they had food and water. One of my cats needs a medicated eye-drop regularly and Paz was confident in her ability to administer the eye-drop. I would hire her again.”


“Thanks for taking care of the babies. They apparently loved you. Shadow purred and they both kept rubbing against me. I hope they behaved. We will check with you next time.”


“Mikayla responded to a last minute request to drop in on our cat and saved the end of our vacation! She was communicative and we loved the pictures she shared while dropping in on Eddie. Super appreciative!”


“James is a very trustworthy, experienced, reliable and responsible pet sitter. He took very good care of my two cats and it was obvious that my cats were very comfortable around him at their first meeting. I would not hesitate to use him again👍🏻”


About: Special needs/senior care Potty training Leash training Experience with reactive dogs Able to administer oral medication and injections Can walk more than 1 dog at a time My schedule is fairly flexible but I’m more often able to work in the morning. I am unavailable from 1-8 pm on tuesdays and Thursdays, and from 4-8 pm on Mondays and Wednesdays. Fridays and weekends are often open for me. When I’m sitting in a clients home I try to spend as much time with the animal as possible so they have company and have the chance to get to know me. I try to do a visit with their owner first if possible so I’m able to learn more about them and their routine at home. For walks and drop ins I like to reach out to owners so I know as much as I can about the pets personality and habits before meeting them.

“Maya was great with our 2 dogs. She was reliable and on time for every visit. We were away for a long weekend and were very busy. Her check ins and pictures of the dogs she sent showed me they were good and well taken care of. I would highly recommend her and I will definitely ask her again.”


“Rhiannon was great I had nothing to worry about when I was out for the whole day. She sent me updated photos and her care for my Gigi was outstanding. I would definitely recommend her if you are looking for the best and complete attention to your dog’s wellbeing.”


“Cassandra was willing to care for my cats on extremely short notice and we did not even get to do a meet and greet in advance. Nevertheless, she was immediately able to bond with my cats and asked insightful questions and was very careful to be sure they were getting the right amounts of food and supplements. From the expression on my cats faces in the photos she sent, I can tell that the cats absolutely love her. I can recommend her highly and hope she will be willing to help us again. I think she is a cat whisperer!”


About: I have been a pet owner all my life, I myself am a cat owner, but have always loved dogs. I am able to care for animals that have medical needs, including diabetes, as I do not mind giving injections. I am also comfortable providing oral medications as well. Dogs or cats with social anxiety as well as senior animals tend to be my favorite as they always have such wonderful personalities and I love getting to know them! I really try to treat other people's animals like I treat my own. Which is to say, they will be a little bit spoiled in my care! I am currently a cat foster for the Brandywine Valley SPCA, so I am constantly learning new things about animal care needs! I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I currently work full time in Paoli (M-F) but depending on location I can go over to let dogs out during my lunch break. On weekends I usually only have 1 or 2 small things if anything going on. I like to make sure to spend as much time as possible with your fur baby. Even though I will stick as close as possible to your routine, it will still be different so spending time with your cat or dog is super important since they will be somewhat deregulated without you there! If you require that I spend the night in your house, I leave it cleaner than I found it. I often like to make it seem like I wasn't there. Except I will strip the sheets off the bed if you would like to wash them when you are home. I can also leave the on the bed, whichever you prefer. I really enjoy house sitting/pet setting because the animal is in their own environment so they are more comfortable from the start!

“Sydney has been the best sitter I could ever ask for! She genuinely cared and gave my fur baby the best attention I could ask for. My cat and I would 100% recommend Sydney, and cannot wait to work with her again!”

“Alix was super communicative from the start of our booking and provided great updates while she was caring for our cat. I really appreciated the attentive touch she had with our cat while we were away, she loved him just as we would :) will certainly be booking again!”


About: I have had pets my whole life and love almost all animals! Currently I have 2 dogs, 2 gerbils, a crested gecko and a fish in my house. I care from friend's cats too. I am comfortable with most animals, and love giving them the attention and love that they deserve! I currently have a very flexible schedule and can work with what is best for your schedule! Whatever time frames you need, I can usually work around them. I spend a lot of time making sure my pets have everything that they could need or want. I am currently typing this with a dog on my lap! I make sure to nurture and love all of my pets and would be doing the same for yours!

About: Looking for a reliable pet sitter? My name is Charlotte and I’m a retired chemical engineer. As a passionate animal advocate with years of experience, I understand the importance of peace of mind when leaving your pet in someone else's care. I’m dedicated to ensuring your pet feels loved, comfortable, and safe while you're away.I fostered several senior dogs and I am an animal rescue volunteer. I am passionate about dog training, following several courses, based on positive reinforcement. Since I am retired from working as a chemical engineer, my schedule allows for plenty of free time where I can cater to your animal's needs! I have a flexible schedule. My kids are abroad so now that I have the time and the space I go for it. I look forward to hearing from you! I live in a quiet neighborhood, my home sits on 5 acres, with a private forest in the backyard. There is a nice fenced yard. The house is spacious inside with separate rooms. I have set up accommodations such as playpens and crates. Exercise is provided with at least two walks a day. I am retired, which means I can provide your special pet with lots of attention while you are away. Currently, I have my own dog, a labradoodle named Simba and 2 cats at home.

About: I have taken care of animals for over five years. I am currently in college planning to get a degree in Biology/Zoology, so I will have a career working with animals as well. I’m currently in college, so I have plenty of time to take care of and play with pets! I only have a few classes a day, and I have Fridays completely off. I will always follow the instructions of the owner, and I make sure to walk animals at least 3 times a day when I am taking care of them. I can also use a crate at night if that’s wanted by the owner.
