Dog Walking Connaughtown

About: I'm professionally trained to read dog behaviors and handle them safely, as a PetSmart salon associate. I grew up with dogs, and now I have a little cat. I love animals, and I hope to lend a helping hand to keep your pets cared for and happy! I work full-time and would love to offer my free time to help out with dog walks, check-ins to play or eat, or house sitting I care for my cat, Jasper who keeps me on my toes every day! He is full of curiosity and loved very much. At work, I care for dogs of all sizes and ages which has taught me so much about how to respond properly to a dog's energy.

About: Throughout my life I’ve had multiple dogs of all sizes and personalities. Since I was a kid, I was always the first to help my neighbors and friends with dog sitting or walking. I can’t help the bond I have with our furry best friends! I still help my family and friends with any dog sitting needs to this day! I work from home Monday-Friday and have availability during lunch to assist with playtime or walks. For daily/overnight stays, I can work from your home. I will make sure to keep a close eye on your fur baby as well as give them lots of love and a friendly presence to be around!

“Sydney is so sweet! My mini dachshund, Ranger, is typically very shy but he warmed up to Sydney right away! Can’t wait to book walks with Sydney again.”

“Carolyn is wonderful and I would highly recommend her! Kind, professional, dependable, and great with our dogs. We have 2 golden retrievers, ~3 yrs and ~6 mos, and they took to Carolyn right away. She took them on terrific hour-long walks for the 3 days we needed, even toweling them down because of the rains. I will definitely reach out to Carolyn in the future when similar needs come up.”

About: I have worked at PlayTime Pet Resort, a pet boarding facility. Additionally, I have experience in pet sitting and walking for families in my neighborhood. I am a full time student while playing a collegiate sport. Nights during the weekday and all day on the weekends work best for my schedule. I have a cat and dog at home who I keep active by providing a stimulating environment. Using my experience in pet sitting and walking, I can ensure that I take great care of pets while cleaning up after them.

“Super detailed report and responsive! Totally trust her with my boy anytime!”

“Nico has been great. Tessa is so happy when he comes to the door to get her, and she's tired when she gets home. That's always a good sign. He gives her the exercise she needs and he obviously knows and loves dogs. I highly recommend Nico.”

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. I regularly dog/ cat sit for my neighbors since I was 10. Sometimes I like animals more than people. I’m currently a part time student at Towson with a part time job, Monday through Thursday. I have plenty of breaks throughout the day to spend with your pet! Your pet is welcome anywhere in my apartment! Bring whatever toys/treat you want. Whatever makes them comfortable! I will love them like my own!!

“Casey was prompt and responsive. Ember seemed nice and tuckered out after her time with Casey, which was just what we wanted when we were out of the house all day.”

About: I grew up with always having 4 big dogs in the house. Since I moved out of my parents house I have had Maverick my Golden Retriever. Prior to owning Maverick I was an EOD K9 Handler with a Belgian Malinois named Sonja nicknamed “The Maligator” with her super high energy. When I left that company I had to give her back so that’s when I adopted Maverick as a puppy. Growing up I would walk the neighborhood dogs as families went on vacation. I have experience with a variety of dogs and having Maverick in my apartment, he is very well trained so if your dog loves to play he will certainly play with your dog. He also has great social queues as well where if your dog is low energy and doesn’t want to play he respect that as well. I have worked professionally with an EOD K9 for 2 years and have experience handling 2-3 dogs at a given time with ease. Any wishes you have when I watch or walk your dog I will certainly follow as I would hope whoever watches my dog would respect my wishes as well. I spend most of my nights sitting on the couch watching Netflix or Philadelphia Sports with my dog and there’s always room for one more dog if you need a night or a few days for someone to watch them I currently work as a Sales Development Representative and work from home. I have two 2 hour call blocks a day and admin work in between. So that gives me plenty of time to take my dog and your dog on a walk! Although I do not have a fenced in yard, I take Maverick on multiple half mile walks throughout the day on the Schuylkill River Trail in Conshohocken. I am not the biggest fan of dog parks as I have seen many irresponsible dog owners bring dogs who probably shouldn’t be interacting with other dogs so that would never be an issue. If for whatever reason I am not at my apartment, I have my furbo camera that notifies me of anything and I can watch my dog at any time. I never leave my apartment for more than an hour or 2 anyways but I like having that for my peace of mind

“Ryanne was the best! She was flexible, kind, and left such great detailed notes/pictures during each visit. We truly appreciated knowing our Buddy was being loved, walked and cared for so well during our 2 weeks away- thank you!!”

About: What sets me apart is that I’ve been around dogs my whole life and trained my own dog to be very gentle and well-behaved when I was only 9 years old. I’m also very good at reading dogs’ body language, which helps me understand when they’re nervous, playful, excited, or need space so I can make them feel comfortable and safe. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, especially during the summer since I have a very flexible schedule and a lot of free time. I’m available throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and giving pets attention and care whenever they need it. I’ve had a dog my whole life, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets and being around different dog personalities. In my client’s home, I would make sure their dog is fed on schedule, has fresh water, gets taken outside or on walks, has playtime and attention, and feels safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I would also carefully follow any instructions the owner provides, including routines, medications, or special care needs.

“Colin was great with my two dogs. They aren’t easy to manage sometimes so it was greatly appreciated!!! O time and really communicative! Would recommend to anyone!”

“Ridgley recently watched my dog for me while I was out of town for the weekend and took great care of my pup! She had great communication and provided an update every time she walked her.”

About: I have been a dog owner my entire life and have always loved being around animals. I currently have two dogs who live with my parents, and while I don’t have any pets in my current apartment, I regularly care for them whenever my parents are traveling. I am also the go-to person for my friends and family when they need someone they trust to watch their dogs while they are away. I have experience caring for dogs ranging from 6 months old to 14 years old and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I am a very active person, so I love taking dogs on walks, playing outside, and visiting the dog park to help them stay happy and engaged. Since my own dogs don’t live with me right now, I would love the opportunity to give another pup plenty of love, attention, and snuggles while their owners are away. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for as if they were my own. I have just finished my first year of dental school, and I have off classes until September, so I’m free all summer and have plenty of availability to dedicate time and attention to pet care. Outside of school, I am a very active person who enjoys going to the gym, spending time outdoors, and staying busy. Caring for pets fits perfectly into my routine because I love being active and would enjoy having a furry companion to take on walks, explore outside with, and give lots of attention and affection throughout the day. I am happy to work with different schedules and routines to make sure each pet receives the care and consistency they need while their owners are away. The safety and comfort of every dog I care for is my top priority. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I make sure to follow each owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), and any specific preferences. When caring for dogs in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would expect for my own home. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection while also keeping them safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I am very active, so I love taking dogs on walks and providing opportunities for them to get outside and stay engaged. I have spent my entire life around dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and trust. My goal is to make sure every dog feels happy, safe, and cared for while their owners are away.

About: Family animals are very special to me, so I will make sure I treat yours with care and respect like I treat my own. I have been trusted to take care of many pets of friends and family. I love to be an active participant in pet care. I am very friendly and personable, while also being responsible. I will attend to every need you have for your pet, and stay organized so your home is at peace when you return. Hope to book with you soon! I am available weekends all day. Over the summer, I have more of an open schedule during the week - let me know, and we can work something out. I make sure to follow care instructions properly when taking care of your loved ones. I make sure to approach nervous dogs with patience and care, and make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible. I also will make sure your pet gets the proper exercise and play time as needed.

“Alejandra was wonderful with Cammie and even got her to socialize with other dogs! It was a perfect fit and we will definitely book with her again.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the fact that I will love and care for your dog as if it was my own. I’ve been babysitting my neighbors dogs for about 2 years now, so I’m experienced with different types of dogs! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and care throughout the day. There’s a lot of times within the day where I will be able to stop by and check on your dog! I provide loving and reliable pet care in clients’ homes by following each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are well cared for while they’re away.

About: After many years living (and dog sitting!) in NYC, I relocated to King of Prussia, PA. I now live with my two kids (ages 4 and 6) in a house with a fully fenced yard—plenty of safe space for pups to run, play, and relax. We don’t currently have pets of our own, so visiting dogs get lots of individual attention and love. My kids absolutely adore dogs and are gentle, respectful, and excited to help care for our furry guests. I’m a lifelong dog lover with a soft spot for boxers and other large breeds. I previously had a boxer and also raised a Rhodesian Ridgeback rescue, so I’m very comfortable with big, high-energy dogs. I believe in calm, confident handling—firm when needed, but always gentle and affectionate. Our home is kid-friendly, dog-friendly, and laid-back. I’m usually available on weekends, with occasional flexibility for Fridays or Mondays depending on my work schedule. Feel free to check out my reviews from NYC clients! I’m available for boarding on weekends and for walks or drop-in visits on weekdays after 6 p.m. Our home has a fenced yard for play and plenty of cozy space for relaxing. Your pup will get lots of love and attention from both me and my dog-loving kids! In my home, visiting dogs enjoy a fenced yard for safe outdoor play, regular walks, and plenty of cuddle time inside. I stick to their usual routines as much as possible—whether that means scheduled feedings, crate time, or medication. When doing walks or drop-ins at a client’s home, I always make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for, giving them attention, exercise, and any specific care instructions you provide. My goal is to make your pup feel safe, loved, and at home—whether they’re staying with us or I’m visiting them!
