Dog Walking Gruvertown

About: I have had pets my whole life as well as taken care of pets for friends, family, and neighbors including hamsters, cats, dogs, and reptiles. I am a stay-at-home mom looking to make some extra income while doing something I love.. being with animals. If the dog is cat-friendly, I am open to drop-offs in my home any time. I do have two cats that are dog friendly so if you have a dog that is cat and child friendly, I would be able to accommodate drop-offs

About: I’ve always had pets as a kid, and the same as an adult! It’s a privilege to be able to care for my own “babies” and others ❤️ I have two cats and a dog, so my days are quite pet-oriented. The cats need a little less care than my dog, but they all get loved equally 🥰 I treat my animals extremely well, and other pets I treat like my own! All animals are important to love and care for, big or small 😇

About: As a dedicated dog mom to two big boys — Tucker (95 lb Pitbull) and Roman (75 lb Boxer) — I understand that every pet has unique needs. Tucker has skin allergies, so I’m experienced with special care routines, and Roman has focal seizures and requires medication every 12 hours, which has made me very comfortable administering meds and staying attentive to health changes. I grew up with a Miniature Schnauzer, Snuggles (14 wonderful years), and our cat, Cuddles (18 years), so caring for animals has truly been a lifelong part of who I am. I treat every pet like family and know how important it is to have someone trustworthy, patient, and loving looking after them. I have open availability for anytime of day. I have a reliable source of transportation. Just let me know what times you need & I will be there. My dogs have a fenced in yard but we also take our boys out on walks around town regularly. I am comfortable walking your pet on leash.

“Scott is seriously the best! So accommodating, always goes above and beyond, and my dog absolutely loves him (he usually hates everyone). Highly recommend!!”

“I have used Sam as a dog walker for over a year. She goes above and beyond for your pet. She cares for them like she would her own pet! 10/10 recommendation!”

“Jessenia has great communication while we are away, double checking feeding schedules and offering to add last minute walks if needed. She provides peace of mind!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of every breed, size, and energy level—from anxious rescues to giant goofballs. As a current volunteer at ACCT Philly, I work hands-on with all types of dogs daily, focusing on leash control, confidence-building, and reading body language. Friends and neighbors regularly trust me for overnight stays, multi-dog households, and high-energy pups because I stay calm, structured, and patient no matter what. I’m comfortable with puppy routines, senior care, and special diets, and I always make sure every dog gets the perfect mix of play, structure, and comfort. Whether it’s a jog around the block, a slow senior stroll, or bedtime snuggles—I tailor my care to your dog’s needs, not a one-size-fits-all plan. Pet care easily fits into my weekly routine. My schedule is flexible for walks, drop-ins, or overnights, and I make sure every pet gets consistent attention, playtime, and care. Whether it’s early mornings, lunch breaks, or evening cuddles, I’ll build my day around your pet’s routine. Safety and comfort always come first. In my home or yours, I make sure pets have a calm, clean, and secure space to relax and play. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, medications, and boundaries—so they feel right at home. I keep a close eye on body language and behavior to ensure they’re happy and stress-free, and I always send photo updates so you can see how well they’re doing. Whether it’s cats curling up for quiet time or dogs burning off energy, I create a safe, loving environment built on trust.

“Morgan was professional and kind. She took great care of my dog and cat and went above and beyond what was needed! I will certainly book her again!”

“Liz is FANTASTIC. Scheduling and communication were very easy. My dog is shy and fearful around new people, but he warmed up to Liz immediately. She knew exactly how to approach him and pick up on his cues and make him feel comfortable. Highly recommend.”

About: I have 2 dogs medium size and trained them when they were 6 months old. I’ve always had animals so I know how to care for all size animals. I have an open schedule, so I could work around your personal schedule to watch your pets! I can sit any day of the week or weekends. I do have a full Tim job in the mornings but it is flexible to where I could leave during a shift. I can follow any instructions given to care for your pets. Letting them out to go to the bathroom, taking them on walks or just feeding them. I do not have a house to board animals so all care would have to be at the clients home.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and grew up actively involved in their daily care, from feeding and walking to helping with training and routines. This lifelong experience has given me a strong understanding of dog behavior, body language, and individual needs. In addition to caring for my own dog, I’ve also helped care for dogs of various sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with energetic pups, as well as dogs who need a calmer, more patient approach. I prioritize safety, consistency, and communication, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so you can feel confident your dog is in good hands. Pet care is already built into my daily routine since I’m home throughout the day and care for my own dog. I maintain a consistent schedule with outings every 4 hours, along with regular feeding, walks, and playtime. Because I’m home most of the day, dogs receive plenty of attention and are rarely left alone for long periods. I’m also flexible and can adjust routines to meet each dog’s specific needs, whether that’s more frequent breaks, extra exercise, or a slower pace. I live in an apartment complex with two dog parks and plenty of space for walks. I treat every dog like my own and take the time to quickly learn their routine and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: I have taken care of dogs of every kind from old to young since I was little. I have watched family dogs, and friends dogs both in the comfort of my own home and gone to spend the night at their houses. I’ve also trained my own dogs throughout the years, including potty training, simple commands, and crate training. I am currently working part-time at my job and stay home with my son. I am mainly home except for the weekends. And on the weekends, my husband will be home to help out. I have a fenced in yard and currently only have one dog of my own who is super friendly and very energetic so she will exercise your dog in our front yard. She loves to cuddle and she is crate trained. I also have an extra crate in case dogs need to be created for whatever reason.

“Brittany is an excellent dog walker who always shows up on time always provides excellent updates and photos of my dog. I am very happy with her excellent service and would highly recommend her.”

About: I’ve had and taken care of dogs since I was 11. I’ve had everything from a Wheaton terrier to a mixed breed rescue that I trained to be a licensed therapy dog, to a boxer and Rottweiler. Big, small, shy or rambunctious I love all dogs! For the past 7 years I work remotely from my home office with the ability to create my own schedule and take calls on my phone when out walking. I have a ton of space in my apartment so if your dog prefers a crate I can accommodate that. However they will be free to roam as well if allowed. Totally up to the opener. I do not have a hard but am on the first floor with easy access to the outside.

About: I have 4 dogs, 3 beagles and a mutt, and two holland lop rabbits. I love pets and am really good with all animals. I’ve potty trained 3 rabbits and can train most dogs how to roll over. Pet care is an important and natural part of my daily routine. With four dogs and two rabbits, I’ve developed a consistent schedule that balances their needs with my own responsibilities. Every morning starts with feeding all of them and making sure they have clean water and a comfortable environment. I take the dogs out for bathroom breaks and walks, giving them time to exercise and burn off energy. Throughout the day, I check in on the rabbits to tidy their enclosures, give them fresh hay and veggies, and spend time socializing with them. In the evening, I make sure everyone is fed again, let the dogs out one last time, and do a quick sweep to ensure everything is clean and calm for the night. Taking care of my pets has taught me how to stay organized, be attentive, and keep a steady routine. I can do the same for your pets.

“On time, super friendly! My dog was oddly calm around her and is usually jumping all over so that put me at ease! Will definitely use her again!!”

About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have always had a passion for caring for animals. I currently have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I also help care for my elderly dog with special needs, giving me experience with senior pets who require extra patience, attention, and gentle care. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I’m currently a student who is mostly remote. I have a very open summer schedule thanks to my summer break. I’m available weekdays and weekends. Or message me if you are in a pinch and I can try and accommodate you! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to maintain your pet’s routine, so I’ll follow your instructions closely to help them feel relaxed and at home. Whether that includes daily walks, feeding on a specific schedule, administering medications, bathing, playtime, or simply spending quality time together, I’ll make sure they receive the attentive care they deserve.
