Top rated Chatham pet sitters

“Steve is fantastic. He is very responsive, reliable, and goes out of his way to be helpful. His obvious love of dogs shines through, and our puppy clearly felt it, too. We have a fear-reactive young pup who up until now has not allowed anyone but family to pet her (including two dog trainers), so I was delighted (and relieved) that she felt comfortable enough with Steve to play with him and even allow him to pet her belly within the first visit. I can’t recommend him highly enough!”


“Riley was amazing! Our dog is old, has movement issues, and needs medication. She was so great with him! She gave wonderful updates, consistently, about our dog and cat. She sent pictures daily and was super responsive! She was absolutely great to work with, easy to communicate with, and made our vacation so relaxing because we knew our pets were taken care of so well, while we were away! Highly recommend her!”


“Cassandra is wonderful! She did a meet and greet with us and our cats prior to the appointment. We had her drop in for our cats while we were away and she took great care of them. She is a true lover of all animals and very respectful. We just found our new permanent cat sitter! Thank you so much ?”


“I can’t say enough good things about Megan! She is amazing! She was able to come in on such short notice due to a prior sitter not working out. She dealt with my animals when they were the most unruly. I swear, they pulled out all the tricks just for her and handled it so well. I would trust her with my whole farm any day! My dogs, sheep, chickens, rabbits and cat have never been in such good hands. Thank you, Megan for being a literal God send during my vacation!”


“Caitlin did an amazing job caring for our dog while we were away. She was great with helping our dog feel comfortable and really followed his lead. Caitlin was quick to respond and very communicative about her visits. We had a great experience.”


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.

“Danica took care of Cleo as if she were her own. She was communicative and left the house in a clean state. I would recommend her to friends and family looking for a pet sitter in the Kennett Sq area.”


“Addison was great! My cat is very particular about who he warms up to and he took to her pretty quickly. Her daily updates were detailed and reassured me that my kitty was well taken care of. She was very responsive and communicative. Would absolutely recommend and use her services again!”


“Storm did a great job stopping by and letting our two dogs out. He was on time and often stayed longer than required making sure they were both taken care of. He got to know our two dogs very well and quickly figured out their personalities.”


“This was just a trial and all went very well! Tina was even able to make friends with my one foster who likes NO one. We booked her for a weeks stay to care for our 4 seniors while we’re away.”


About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—over 30 years of loving and living with dogs, and 24 years with both a cat and a dog by my side. Pets have always been part of my family, and I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for them like you would. I’m patient, compassionate, and experienced with all kinds of personalities—from energetic pups to older pets who need a gentler touch. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just keeping your pet company, I’m here to give them the love and attention they deserve. As a full-time special education teacher, I’m available on weekdays starting around 5 PM and fully open on weekends from 8:30 AM to 7 PM. My weekdays can vary slightly depending on school responsibilities, but I’ll always communicate clearly and do my best to accommodate your pet’s needs. Weekends are the best time for walks, drop-ins, or quality time with your pet! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving environment where your pet can feel secure and cared for. With years of experience and a naturally attentive personality, I’m always tuned in to your pet’s needs and behavior. You can trust that I’ll follow your instructions closely, maintain a safe routine, and treat your pet like one of my own—with patience, kindness, and plenty of love.

About: I’ve worked as a vet assistant administering medication, comforting pets, trained in helping pets in high stress situations, and moderate knowledge of veterinary medicine. I truly love every pet like my own. I’m calm, reliable, and experienced with seniors, medications, puppies, and nervous pets. I understand how hard it is to be away, so I’m here to give your pets the same love and attention you would. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I’m mostly free throughout the day. This flexibility lets me give your pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care whenever they need it. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I create a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable and loved. I follow their specific routines for feeding, exercise, and medication, giving plenty of attention and affection. Whether it’s playing with kittens, helping seniors relax, or managing special needs, I treat every pet like family to ensure they’re happy and stress-free.

About: Hi! I’m Heather, a lifelong animal lover & owner with years of hands on experience caring for dogs, cats, horses and even other farm animals. Whether it’s a quick drop in, a long walk, or overnight care, I treat every pet like family because to me, they are. I’m attentive to routines, details, medical needs, and quirks, whether your dog needs a special diet or your dog just prefers a certain sunny spot on the couch. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone new, so I provide regular photo updates and messages to keep you connected and worry free. Punctual, respectful, and always gentle. I show up with treats, patience, and a genuine passion for pets. I’m here to make tails wag, and pet parents feel completely at ease. I specialize in overnight stays, senior pets, and medication administration. Let’s schedule a meet & greet. I’d love to get to know you and your furry family! I currently have a full time job, but my hours can be flexible. My normal work schedule is 6:30 am to 3:30 pm with a 1 hour flexible lunch time. I work in West Chester & live in Quarryville. I am available to make stop ins before, after or during the day depending on your location. I'm also available for overnight stays. In clients' homes, I follow their routines closely; feeding, walking and playing as instructed. My goal is for pets to stay happy and relaxed in their families space making it less stressful for pet & owner. I treat every pet with patience, affection and the same exact care I'd want for my own.
