“Georgilin was fantastic. I love that she offered to meet my dog with me before walking her for the first time, it helped put me at ease. She was super responsive to any of my messages, on time for all the walks, and great about updates! She also offered to help me out when my dog was sick and I was at work which was so nice of her. I definitely recommend her!”


About: I've grown up with dogs all my life! I've been responsible for walking, feeding, petting, and loving multiple family dogs. I know how to be patient with a dog and react based on the dog's comfort level. I work remote so my schedule is extremely flexible. I can be anywhere at anytime! Let me know what your pet needs and I'll be happy to accommodate them and you :) This will depend mostly on the owner's needs, but I will have eyes on your pet at all times to make sure they're safe and sound. I make sure to listen to an animals queues.

“Julia was a great communicator and very responsive. She gave me great updates on our puppy with photos and specific details with how their walk went. She was also incredibly kind and patient with our nervous puppy. We would highly recommend her to take care of your fur baby!”


“Chesney really enjoyed his daily walks with Paulina while we were away! She is very reliable and always gives us great details and pictures of how he was each day.”


“Reno was a lifesaver and took on a last minute request for a few days while we were away on vacation. Excellent, fast communication, professional. Will definitely be booking with Reno again!”


“Stu is fantastic! They met me and my dog, Zia, the day before I requested to book with them. Super professional, friendly and Zia really enjoyed their company. Zia warmed up to Stu almost immediately. I was out of the house the day of the walk and Stu kept in communication and arrived promptly. I’m so happy Zia and Stu are pals- I will be booking Stu in the future! Highly recommend them!”


“This is my first time using a dog-walking service. I was extremely nervous. However, Areana ensured that I would be comfortable. Ms.Areana remained in constant communication, very professional, and seemed extremely nice. She completed all of my requests with no hesitation nor issues. Even after just one experience I would recommend her services. Looking forward to using her again in the near future. Note: I love how Areana sends photographs of the experience as well as a documentation of what occurred on the walk.”


About: Hello! I’m Monica. I’m a medical student with an enormous love for dogs! I’m too busy to have my own dog, so I have a lot of love to give. I will gladly play catch with them and give them plenty of back scratches. I am detailed oriented, so if you have a routine with your pets I am sure to follow it. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your fur angels. My schedule changes every month. Often, I am best available in the late afternoons, evenings, and weekends. There are times when I don’t go in until late morning, and therefore could walk a pet early morning. When taking care of a pet, I will respect your home like my own. I leave a space either the same or better than what I originally encounter.

“Katie is the best walker we've ever had!!! My large retreiver can be a handful, but was handled beautifully by Katie. My dog, Tillie, adored her and would 'talk' to her when she arrived, which surprised me since BK (before Katie) she'd only 'talk' to me! Which goes to show how much Tillie liked her. Katie was impressive and I'd recommend her highly!!!”


“Dawn is wonderful! She was very friendly and great with my large dog, Bear. She was calm and in command during their multiple dog walks. And I appreciate the photos and video along the walk.”


About: I’ve spent my whole life around dogs — from caring for my own pup for 14 years to walking neighborhood dogs growing up. I also worked for a professional dog walking company for 2 years before moving to the city. I’ve handled dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, and I’m comfortable with everything from high-energy puppies to senior dogs. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits with a flexible schedule and a genuine love for animals. Your pet’s comfort and safety are always my top priority. I work full time as flight attendant but I have a flexible and often open schedule between trips. Although my availability is variable, I’m able to offer consistent and reliable care during the days and times that I’m home. My job allows me blocks of free time during the week—perfect for daytime walks, drop-in visits, or extended stays. I understand the importance of routine and communication, and I make it a priority to keep your pet happy, safe, and well-cared-for while you’re away. When I’m in town, your pup has my full attention! While offering walks and drop-in visits, I tailor each experience to meet your dog’s specific needs. Safety and trust are always my top priorities, and I focus on clear, consistent communication with every client. Since I’ll be caring for your pup in your home, I treat your space with the utmost respect and make sure each visit is personalized and thoughtful.

About: I’ve been a dedicated dog sitter, walker, and boarder for the past 5 years, and I’ve had the joy of working with all kinds of dogs—puppies, seniors, and everything in between. I currently have a 10-year-old dog of my own and am also fostering another sweet pup for the next two months. I’m very comfortable managing multiple dogs, especially larger breeds, and my home is a loving, safe environment for them. What truly sets me apart is my round-the-clock care—I work from home, so the dogs under my supervision are never alone for long and receive constant attention, care, and affection. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. Clients love my clear communication, flexibility, and genuine passion for animals. Plus, I’m located right in Fairmount, Philadelphia, surrounded by some of the city’s best dog parks—perfect for daily walks and adventures. Book your pup’s stay at Le Hotel Erick—where your dog will be loved, cared for, and treated like royalty! Pet care is seamlessly woven into my daily routine because I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to fully meet the needs of the dogs in my care. I’m able to adjust my schedule around their feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and any special needs they may have. Typically, I take my dogs out three times a day—a walk in the morning, a midday outing, and a long evening walk after dinner to help them wind down. Between those walks, there’s plenty of time for play, cuddles, enrichment activities, and supervision. Because I’m always home, I can give each dog personalized attention and ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for throughout the day. Whether your pup needs extra playtime, medication, or just someone to hang with while you’re away, I’m here and happy to accommodate! I care for pets in my home by creating a space that’s both welcoming and safe. My home is thoughtfully arranged with dogs in mind—while pups are welcome on the furniture, I make sure the environment is clean and free of any items that could be harmful or pose a risk. What truly ensures their safety, though, is my constant presence. Because I work from home, I’m able to closely supervise the dogs in my care throughout the day. I also prioritize clear communication with pet owners, keeping them updated and informed, which helps build a strong sense of trust. Above all, I work to create an environment where dogs feel secure, comfortable, and loved—because every pup deserves a home-away-from-home experience.

“Niki is the best! She truly cares a lot about your pet, and is very respectful of my space and requests when it comes to caring for my lil guy. She is attentive, communicative, and always double checks that she is doing the right thing, especially when something changes or there's a special circumstance. Niki comes to walk my dog every day and recently has helped follow a strict plan when my dog's illness was triggered. With Niki it feels like I have a team mate in making sure my dog has everything that he needs. She's reliable and I highly recommend her!”
