“Second time having Sarah hang with our cats and she was just as helpful and communicative as the first time.”
“Abbey is amazing!! She checked in on our kitty every day during a 9 trip, and we felt so at ease knowing she was taking such good care of our home and cat. She had incredible communication while we were away and went above and beyond for our cat. She came ahead of time to meet us, often stayed longer with our kitty than we had booked, sent tons of pics, and even went out to buy litter when it ran out while we were away. I cannot reccomend her highly enough- thank you!”
“Holly fed our two cats twice a day for a few days and was amazing! She spent extra time ensuring they were well loved and sent update pictures each visit. She was easy to communicate with and we highly recommend her!”
“Hannah was so kind, professional, and excellent in her care for our Bird girl. Highly recommend and will use her again!”
About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting and had my own dog for many years. Now, I have experience from drop-in visits to extended overnight stays, with many different types of needs. I’m dedicated to caring for a pet the same way their owner would and look forward to spending time with animals. I work from home most days and can accommodate a flexible potty schedule and activity level. I enjoy taking breaks to spend with pets, to get outside or tuck in on the sofa! I have an enclosed garden and large, unfenced yard. We are well back from the main road so pets are welcome to explore the neighborhood.
“Kadyona was dependable and easy to communicate with. She took care of my two cats over five visits. My cats enjoyed having someone to spend time with them and give attention and playtime.”
“Once again Alisha has done an amazing job looking after our two cats! She follows directions to a T and is always super communicative. Our cats seem to love her as well. Will definitely be booking again.”
About: I've been taking care of pets (cats, dogs, and rabbits) my entire life. One of my career highlights was working at the Philadelphia Zoo. Granted, I was working as a puppeteer, but I love being around animals every day. I currently have two beloved cats of my own, and I'm excited to meet your pets! I'm also a freelance puppeteer and writer - so when I'm between projects I have a very flexible schedule and will be happy to take care of your pets! I pride myself on being good with animals, love winning them over, and am a very empathic person. While I love a friendly creature, I'm also good at giving animals space if they're shy around new people, etc.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and older pets who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m great at picking up on individual needs—whether that’s sticking to a strict feeding schedule, handling clean-up routines, or giving pets the one-on-one attention they deserve. I am home for the summer from college and free most days, guarantee you my undivided attention to your pets. I will make sure they are taken care of wonderfully. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean, and calm space with plenty of love and attention. I follow their routines carefully to keep things familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the space, follow all instructions, and ensure their pet feels secure and cared for. Clear communication and gentle, attentive care help build trust every step of the way.
“We could not have asked for a better cat sitter for our two girls! Rory answered our last minute request for cat care after our usual sitter fell through, then took the time and dedication to drop in and visit them twice a day. Not only did she see to their basic needs, she went above and beyond to play with them to ensure they were not bored or lonely while we were away. Not to mention the adorable and sometime hilarious pictures she sent everyday! I would recommend Rory to anyone looking for a pet sitter. 11/10! 😊”
“Stephanie did a marvelous job taking care of my very senior (19 yo) cat in my home while I was gone. She came twice a day to feed her, clean up, give medication, brush, pet and hug her. She texted me pictures and updates at every visit. Peaches looked better when I got back than she did when I left! I highly recommend Stephanie as a very dependable and caring petsitter.”
About: Growing up in England we had beloved family dogs. Our second dog now is very much part of our family. If I can help you out with your pet I would be happy to! I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I can easily do drop in feed and let out visits and walks on an as needed basis. I am available to drop into your home to feed and take care of your dog’s needs including affection! I would be happy to do custom walks too.
About: Animals are children to me. Grew up with many dogs/cats & birds! Offer great at home visits to exercise, play & feed your pets! Strong, driven individual that can handle multiple large dogs at a time. Also have trained many puppies through my youth and adult life, so can handle the little ones too! Respectful to clients and pets alike, understanding the value and security of your home and neighborhood. Will always walk dogs until they poop and pee; will pet and play with them during walks and visits. Please do not hesitate to ask questions or request supplemental services. You will not regret picking me as your animals caretaker!! I am working part time with a flexible schedule, so boarding your dog takes priority. I wake up early each morning and retire around 9p I have many trails in the back of our property, with hills and fields to run in. Dogs are given all the love I can muster in the home and out on walks or hikes! Very safe environment for your dog
“Abigail was wonderful! Very responsive and prompt. Abigail clearly LOVES animals and is committed to providing excellent care.”
“Ali was great, sent photos and updates with each visit and was great to work with on booking, will book with her again!”
“Erin has been fantastic and flexible with our schedule. Highly recommend!”
About: When I was 8 years old, I started my own pet sitting business in the neighborhood. I made my own business cards and handed them out to all my neighbors. I’ve taken care of many neighborhood dogs and cats over the years, and have been a trusted source to call upon since I was a young girl. Growing up, I attended summer camps at the local humane society to be near animals, and at the age of 16 began volunteering. At the age of 13, my puppy charlie was brought into the family alongside my cat, so I’ve had personal hands-on experience caring for pets of my own through the years! I also love to be active; alongside my enthusiasm for going on walks, I also love to run and go on hikes; if you feel comfortable entrusting me with your furry family member, I would love to take your dog on adventures of their own (easy jogs/walks, hikes) to make sure they get plenty of exercise while you’re away! This way your dog gets a little staycation of their own :) I teach piano lessons alongside working part time, so I’m typically not away from home for crazy long! I have an abundance of time and energy to care for your pet. It is of the utmost importance for me to be respectful in your home. I will do everything in my power to ensure that you feel comfortable with me in your personal space, and will respect any/all boundaries. Leaving your pet with another person is scary! The last thing I want is for you to spend your time away feeling overly stressed about the care your pet and your home is receiving. I will send you daily updates on your pet, and will also ensure I’m clean, tidy, and leave your home looking even better than you left it!

Andrew C.
“Andrew was so reliable and good with my cat, Pirate! He sent twice daily videos and pictures of Pirate getting pets, eating food, and relaxing. Before I left for the holidays, Andrew stopped by the apartment to meet Pirate, get a feel for my home, and ask questions which really put me at ease that I was leaving Pirate with someone so responsible and dedicated. I also really appreciated Andrew dropping off more bags for the litter box when I ran out. Would definitely hire Andrew again and recommend him to anyone else!!”
