About: Chillaxing with animals is my favorite self-care! I have been taking care of cats and dogs for over 20 years. My speciality is rescue animals and all of my cats over the years have been from shelters. I've taken care of all types of cats and dogs from pugs to German Shepards, from kittens to senior cats. I am very gentle, compassionate, and give great pet back scratches! I currently work as a social worker and my schedule is very flexible. This means I am available outside a traditional Monday - Friday 9am-5pm schedule. I follow your instructions like a recipe and am proactive about asking questions related to the care of your pet. In addition, my former roommate is a practicing veterinarian and is on-call for me 24/7. :)

About: I have taken care of my sister dog for 7 months her name was chichi. I had lots of experience with taking her to walks, making sure she used the bathroom on her walks, also bathing her. I am very playful with dogs and make sure they eat and have a clean bowl of water. I am currently working a job during the afternoon on the weekdays and the weekends but I will still be available to play with your pups on the weekdays some mornings :) I will always keep your pup in company. I love to watch over playful dogs and love to teach them new tricks. I’m a very kind and generous person and comfortable to be around with dogs.

“Emma loves the dogs and my Beauty is no different. You want to feel comfortable leaving your fur baby in the hands of another and I felt just that. Thanks Emma!”


“Elizabeth is prompt and takes great care of my dog, paying special attention to the things I’ve asked for. My pup is in great care with Elizabeth!”


About: Experienced pet sitter providing loving, reliable care for dogs of all breeds. I’m passionate about making sure pets feel happy, healthy, and safe while their owners are away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I treat every pet like my own and follow their routine to ensure their comfort and well-being. Available for pet sitting most days with flexible hours. Busy Tuesdays and Thursdays but open for evenings and other days. Happy to help your pets! I care for pets in their own home, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their daily routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care they need. I prioritize their well-being, providing companionship, maintaining a clean environment, and following owner instructions closely. Trust, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities.

“So personable, professional, and so thankful she was able to walk our dog on short notice. Highly recommend and will be using again!!”


“Karlyn is amazing! She is reliable and great at communicating! Not to mention, I love the pictures and the details about her visit! I’d recommend her to anyone needing help with their pup!”


About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life and have a deep passion for their well-being. I have extensive experience walking, fostering, and providing long-term care for dogs both at home and while away at school. I’m comfortable with dogs of many breeds, sizes, and ages. I pride myself on being highly dependable—always focused on making pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. I am a college student home for summer and work at a restaurant, so my weekends can be a bit busier, but I’m typically available throughout the weekdays and most of the day on weekends. My schedule varies week to week, but I’m extremely flexible and always do my best to accommodate the needs of both pets and their owners. At my home, I have a fenced-in yard. I can crate dogs if needed and follow any specific routines. In a client’s home, I make sure to follow all care instructions and keep pets comfortable, happy, and safe.

About: Hi, I’m Amy — your pet’s new favorite auntie! 🐾 Since growing up with big dogs, small dogs, and cats - I have been a lifelong animal lover living vicariously through pet sitting for friends. I’ve always been the one that friends, roommates, and coworkers call when they need someone they can trust with their pets—and now I’m here for you too. Whether your furry family member is a playful pup, a chill cat, or a quirky critter, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I live an active lifestyle and love long walks, playtime, and cozy cuddle sessions. I’m happy to care for pets with all kinds of personalities—high-energy dogs, shy cats, and everything in between. Whether it’s boarding at my place or house sitting at yours, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved. I know how much your pet means to you, and I’ll always follow your care routines, send regular updates, and create a stress-free experience for both of you. I currently work from home on Fridays and am available on weekends for daytime or overnight dog sitting in my home (small and medium size dogs) or house sitting/drop in visits/walks for any pets between Friday 1 pm and Sunday 8 pm. Your home or mine, I love to be active or cuddle - whatever your pet’s personality is! My backyard is not fenced in, but does have a nice space for potty breaks. I am close by Delaware park for long walks. I don’t mind if pups use a crate or roam the house - whatever you prefer, but in my home I will ask that your pet is house trained.

“Darrean was professional and prompt! Also I asked her last second for an hour walk and she was available so if you’re in a pinch then she is your go to. I needed someone to tire my dog out while I worked a 12 hour shift. Thanks!!!”


“Lana was amazing with my dog Nala! Nala took to her right away. Lana is prompt when answering texts and great at communicating. She always takes lots of pictures and leaves a report card. Thank you for taking great care of Nala!”


“Mitchell and Charlie had a great walk together.”


“Another great job.”


About: I love spending time with dogs! Whether it’s a playful stroll with a high-energy puppy, a gentle walk with a senior dog, or anywhere in between, I always adjust my pace and approach to match their energy and needs. Keeping dogs happy, safe, and engaged during our time together is my top priority. I currently am in graduate school and doing part time research and class at home during the summer, so my schedule is pretty flexible! :) I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort by closely following your care instructions. I create a calm, reliable environment where your pet feels secure and loved.

About: I have a dog and cat of my own, and I adore animals. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I am available pretty much all the time. If I am doing a house sitting I do have to be able to bring my own dog. He’s only about 15 pounds and very chill. He keeps to himself. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so pet care can be as needed and I can take the pups on as many potty breaks or walks as they need/want! I have a yard, not entirely fenced but partially! And live in a very walkable neighborhood with a nearby park, so lots of room for dogs to walk!
