Even though we were nervous about leaving our new-to-us pup for a week, she was in loving hands with Christina! We appreciated the daily updates and Christina’s (and her son’s) efforts to keep our pup stimulated and socialized. Would book again without question!

Samantha really put us at ease when we went away for the night. She communicated with us the entire time providing updates on our dogs and pictures. I will continue to book Samantha anytime we need someone to check on our babies!

This is the first time I had someone stay in my home to care for Chica. Alexys was great. She came by the house the day before we were leaving for a meet and greet. She arrived on time, stayed one night overnight, washed the sheets and made the bed. That was above and beyond. And Chica was happy. I would definitely use Alexys again and recommend her to anyone need pet sitting/walking services.

Areana is the best dog and cat sitter one could book. We trust her 100% and she’s stayed at our house a few times so far for multi-day. She treats our pets and home as if they were her own. Our pets LOVE when she comes over since they know they’re about to be spoiled with attention, pets and walks. 6/5 stars!

Stephanie was amazing with Birdie. She was incredibly responsive throughout the stay and easily took care of any difficulties that arose. We could tell that Birdie loved Stephanie by the end of the stay, which made us very happy. She was also very thoughtful and considerate staying in our apartment!

Duncan was awesome! He watched our 70lb lab for 10 days and sent frequent updates and photos. In the photos I could tell that our dog was happy and comfortable. He was very responsive leading up to and during the visit, and also made the time to meet us in person before the visit so he could get to know our dog. When we returned from our trip or Apartment was spotless, and he even washed our sheets for us, which was an unexpected gesture and very much appreciated after a long drive. We will 100% book him again in the future.

About: I've always lived with and loved animals. I am a co-parent of two cats, have been a regular sitter for many friends' cats & dogs over the last 10 years, and have completed four pet sits this year through another app. I also have experience looking after chickens, ducks, pigs, hamsters, rats, rabbits, and fish! I take my commitments and responsibilities seriously, and I know how much trust is involved with relying on someone else to look after your home and beloved pets. Getting to connect with pets adds so much joy to my life, and I'm passionate about giving animals the care they deserve! I am very attentive & gentle with animals, and am happy to share photos and updates of your pets while they are in my care! I'm relatively new to this site, so my references are still coming in - happy to connect you directly with a reference, or do a phone call / video chat before arranging anything. Hello! I'm Kris, a 38-year-old fashion designer & caregiver. I’ve been a trusted pet sitter for many in my extended community over the years, having lived with and cared for many cats & dogs of all ages. I am available for overnights & drop-ins any day of the week. I take my commitments and responsibilities seriously, and I know how much trust is involved with relying on someone else to look after your home and beloved pets. I work for myself, so am able to spend lots of time keeping your pets company and taking play / walk breaks. I am very attentive & gentle with animals, and am happy to share photos and updates of your pets while they are in my care! I've worked as a house cleaner before as well, and you can expect me to keep your home tidy, scoop litter daily, and care for any house plants.

Elizabeth is great! We have two needy pets, including an old, anxious dog with mobility issues and other special needs. Elizabeth was perfect with administering medications and and keeping up with regular physical therapy exercises. We came home to a clean house and two well cared for (though possibly disappointed Elizabeth was gone) pets. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth if you need someone to watch pets in your home.

About: I have worked with all kinds of animals throughout my life, learning to train cats and dogs on my own. I’m also familiar with exotic pets such as pythons and bearded dragons. I can comfortably administer different kinds of medications to most animals, including oral liquids and pills, sub-Q and IM injections, and topicals. Currently I am available as a full-time pet sitter for house-stays and drop-ins. I often sit for multiple houses at once, doing house-stays for one client and drop-ins for 1-3 others depending on the services and times needed per client. When I meet an animal for the first time, my priority is gaining their trust. I spend time casually observing so I can take note of their personality and physical forms of communication, but I don’t get too close or move too quickly until I’ve given the animal a chance to take me in as well. Once trust is established, we can move on to wearing leashes and harness, medication routines, playing, etc.

Quanence and Malik were amazing! From the very start at the meet & greet they were both very detailed, asked all the right questions, and took lots of notes. They took great care of our pets Cali & Spanky. They kept us informed the entire time and sent pics. Communication was excellent. We could not have been happier. It’s a beautiful feeling to truly be able to be present at our event, knowing we didn’t have to worry about our babies. Today, was our first time using their service. Promise, it will not be the last. Do NOT hesitate to book their services!!! So happy our paths have crossed Quanence and Malik - thank you for everything!!! ☺️

Bill was absolutely outstanding. He stayed at our place while we’re out of the country for a little over a week. He took incredible care of our two golden retrievers and sent many updates and pictures of them. He was prompt and took great care of our house while we were away. We will definitely be booking Bill again for his services!

About: Hi my name is Sarah and I’m *almost* as hyper as your dog 🤣🩷 I’ve taken care of dogs professionally on and off for ten years, am confident w both dog sitting and shorter walks/check-ins, and have nearly full availability at this time. I am a runner, so can comfortably provide services that will tire out even the most hyper of dogs! I also have experience caring for senior dogs and dogs with medication needs. Please don’t hesitate to reach out, and I’ll do my darndest to make sure your pup has the best walk/day/*insert period of time here* EVER! 💞💞 I’m currently doing flexible remote work, so I have lots of availability to care for your pet! I am open to multi-day bookings and very flexible with longer term care as well as shorter check-ins and walks 🩷 I have essentially full availability on Fridays and weekends; the only time I am not available is 6-10pm on weekdays, as I’m currently in school for massage therapy :) Anything outside of that window is fair game! I take a very attentive and energetic approach, making sure to put safety first in everything. I absolutely love dogs and am very eager to explore the city and get moving myself, so I see dog-walking and pet sitting as something I get just as much out of as you and your pet! I do not currently have any pets in my home, so would be open to boarding in the future at my place in Fishtown (granted, probably a better idea for smaller dogs and cats, as my apartment isn’t ginormous).

Paulina is the best pet sitter we have ever had!!! She truly loved and cared for our fur babies just like we do and she sent us the cutest updates everyday. Even leaving my pets with family is stressful and my mind is never at ease, but with Paulina we were able to actually relax and enjoy our vacation because we knew how happy our pets were with her. We will definitely rebook with her in the future!

Taylor has sat for our pup many times but this was her first overnight stay and it went GREAT. She stayed with Mr. Scruff for four nights and we were so thankful to not have to worry about him at all while we were gone. We got plenty of updates, she followed all of our instructions (especially important with his separation anxiety and reactivity), and was also a great houseguest. Our buddy was belly up, playing, and eating while we were away, which means he felt safe and happy — all we can ask for!

It's always nerve-wracking leaving my dog with someone new for the first time, especially when I'm not easily accessible. Good thing I took a chance on Anna - she handled everything perfectly! I really felt like she treated Turtle like her own pet for the week. Her and her partner provided all the care and loving that I'd hoped for. I will definitely use her again!

Ava took care of my two dogs when I was abroad for work. One of my dogs had a nasal tumor and Ava was comfortable handling her daily meds and a nosebleed that happened during the week. She sent me updates and took them for pup cups. She also made sure to leave my place as she found it. She was flexible and helpful. I recommend her.
