About: I have cared for family and friends pets since I was 14 years old. Combined with my love for animals and attention to detail, my skill set has helped to create a special experience for each pets needs. From energetic dogs needing more patience and structure to senior pets who need a little more tend love and care! I am currently working full-time, 7am-2:30pm (M-F). However, on weekends and afternoons I am free to devote my time to caring for your pets. I don't work summers which allows me the flexibility to provide the best care needed to each of your fur pups. When caring for my own and other pets safety and trust is a top priority. Each pet is different however I still make it my business to make sure pets and parents of pets feel comfortable by catering to their specific needs in and out of my home. In my own home, I make sure the environment is free from anything that can be toxic to animals such as exposed wire, toxic plants, or foods. I maintain consistency with pet schedules to ensure each animal feels comfortable. I have a large backyard that is partially fenced in so pets can get regular exercise. I also have one mini poodle that goes by Karter, if it meets the pets needs Karter is great company to keep to promote interaction and stimulation throughout the day.
“Jimi was diligent in caring for our 4 cats. He has a real affinity for animals, and is a hard worker. He brought in our packages as well, and didn’t let snow or ice stop him.”

“Lacey was fantastic! I went away for a week for the first time since getting my cat and her consistency and professionalism made it so much easier. I loved the regular check ins and my boy seemed happy as ever on return. Thank you!”

“Joann is great!! So happy we connected! It gives me so much piece of mind when I’m at work to know my little Lucy is being taken care of. She lets her out, plays with her and always lets me know how Lucy is! Great experience!!”

“Kerri and Harry were great! They handled things while we traveled over the holiday. Very good with our cats. Very good with communications as well. We plan to use them again in the future! Thank you!”
About: I currently have two cocker spaniels and one is partially blind and he trusts my voice. They are family and get treated like a member. I worked in The Casino business and while working there I fell back into dog care for co wokers who were working double shifts and then things took off from there while dog care walks and play time I also cared for cats as well! I love what I do and that is important balance in showing how well you work with animals! I like to excercise the dog and then spend some chill time towards then end of the session. I have walked 3 dogs at one time and I am very comfortable doing so. So I look forward to meeting you and you fur baby!
About: Hi everyone, I’ve owned and taken care of dogs my entire life. I would consider it a privilege to take care of yours!!! Thank You I’ve been a school teacher for 30 years. I’m retiring in the next couple of years. I’m looking forward to the next chapter of my life by fulfilling another passion of mine, taking care of dogs. I’ve always loved dogs. I will give love and attention to your dog as if your dog were my own. My life would not be complete without a dog. I’m fully available to walk your dog and drop-in sitting at your house. I’m a school teacher, off for the summer and on Sabbatical for the next school year. Safety, love, and attention for others pets are my top priorities. I think about how I would want my precious Cooper cared for by others, therefore, your dog will receive my full attention.

We thoroughly enjoy dogs in our home and so does Cooper, our 5 year old dog.
“Joshua is a fantastic cat sitter. He arrived on time and sent pictures. Penny is a finicky cat when it comes to people, but she purred whenever Joshua came over. So very happy!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve had cats my whole life and am very familiar with their needs, personalities, and routines. I also have experience caring for horses, which has strengthened my understanding of animal behavior, patience, and responsibility. I’m gentle, observant, and naturally good with animals. Although I don’t have much direct experience caring for dogs yet, I’m eager to learn, I follow instructions closely, and I provide a safe, loving environment for every pet. I am currently a full-time graduate student, but I have a flexible schedule that will allow me to easily accommodate you and come take care of your furry friends in the mornings and evenings. It is my goal to follow all directions given by the owner to ensure their pets have a safe environment and a fun time while their owner is away.
About: My goal is to provide the pest possible service for your family. I am just getting started with Rover and not so busy yet. I think some great reviews would help and that is good news for you because great reviews require providing great service. Seriously, I am a senior looking to supplement my income like all old guys but I truly love dogs. It may seem strange but I feel a connection and able to communicate. So how about a shot to give you some great service so I can great reviews and fill my calendar a bit. Often times the fewer words the better but below gives you a window into some personal pet experiences. Pets have been a part of my entire life. My first adolescent memory is of Jacque, a prissy French Poodle with an attitude that Mom would let me dress up complete with overcoat, booties and of course a French beret. Ginger was a large orange tabby cat that could have been Garfield's stunt double. My parents attempt at teaching me responsibility actually worked. Married in 1971 our life together started with Figaro, looked just like the cat from Pinocchio. All black with white paws very sneaky, overly curious and slightly narcissistic. Figora belonged to my wife and he made that very clear. Sabrina, a very shiny grey Siamese joined us when my sister went to school. Sabrina was very anti social and did not like anybody. House guests could spend an entire weekend and never see her. She tolerated us but Sabrina and Figora had shall we say, an understanding. Neither were ever outdoors or saw the light of day. With the family developed and 3 boys later came Thunder. He was a rescue Sheppard mix. He was very active, playful, mischievous and very funny. He was more than a handful and we still laugh and talk about things that he did. As he became an adult dog, by years not behavior for sure, friends in a rural area expressed how much they loved Thunder. We just could not break their hearts and allowed them to adopt Thunder. We visited often. After some time Briar came into the picture. My wife's girlfriend became ill and unable to care for a large majestic Bovier de Flanders. Her coat was amazing. Very heavy and thick. Kids on the street would ask if she was a bear. When someone rang the doorbell Briar would announce them and greet them in an extremely loud intimidating manor. The caller could have just opened the door and patted her end and should would just give love and affection. She was kind gentle and helpful to everyone. Except, if you were to approach my wife in an aggressive manor or touch her, you were taking your life in your own hands. She was never taught to protect her, but protect she did. Amazing breed characteristics and lots of stories. We learned she had a UTI and was her kidney. We prolonged her life as long as possible and realized the treatment and medication were selfish on our part and chose her comfort over our love for her. So hard. My most recent pet experience was Pike, a brindle pit bull, male and Roxy, female dachshund. We started to foster them temporarily while my son traveled for work and turned to an extended stay their last years. Roxy ruled the roost for sure and was always funny when you considered their statute let alone breed but she was boss. We called them the odd couple. I would take them with me to work often and Pike made sales calls with me. He was truly my road dog. We lost them both within a month. We lost them both just before pandemic, they were 16-17 best guess. My son was the one that literally rescued Pike while he was chained to a dumpster in Rittenhouse Square all day in the rain. With lots of patience and love from everyone close, I watched him transform from an otherwise unfriendly, aggressive, animal hating Pit Bull transform to the sweetest, gentlest, ready to please member of the family. I do not have any formal training training nor have done training professionally but I am up for the challenge. I know and understand the 7 basic commands, hand signals, concepts and have a tremendous amount of patience. There are a lifetime of story's how I was the only one that got along with the shop dog or the neighbors dog or a particular. Hope to meet you and your Pups soon, Rocci I am retired and available 9:00am to 9:00 pm right now I don't need much notice. I am hoping to develop relationships with dogs by providing outstanding service I have a French yard that houses all the dogs and cats and the other animals as well as an area in the garage where we keep all the toys

“Miranda did a great job watching over my two cats, Ninja and Scraps while I was away on vacation. I definitely would recommend her and will be using her again in the future!
