“Kennedy has been amazing. She comes several times a week to let my dog out. She shows up on time, sends pictures, and always leaves a detailed report. I would recommend her service.”
“Sabrina was so great! She took amazing care of our cats and let us know if anything was amiss in the house. She was very sweet to the cats and was awesome with communication. I’ll definitely go to her again in the future to help us out! Very sweet to us and to our cats. Couldn’t ask for a better experience :)”
“Lacey was wonderful at the meet and greet we set up. The dogs liked her and when she came to let them out and play with them she spent 30-45 min . She made sure they peed before she left and had plenty of water. I will be using her frequently when we have to be out for more than 3-4 hrs. She is very careful to make sure the dogs are well cared for while she is here. Communication is excellent.”

I do not work that often so I am very available. Week days are best for me because I normally work all day on the weekends. I can do anything that is asked. I can follow all directions and cage them if needed I can give food and water. I will keep them safe and happy.
About: I got my first pet when I was 7 and have had a mix of dogs and cats in my life since then. Have cared for pets of family members and friends for many years and enjoy spending time with puppies and kittens to seniors. I believe that mental and physical stimulation is important for all, and will treat your pet as it is my own. I am newly retired and have full availability to care for your pet at your home.This includes everything from walks to play time to overnight stays. Upon arrival to your home, which is where I will be caring for your pet, I will take the time for them to become familiar with me and then i will follow all specific instructions for their care. I can also give you updates if you would like.
About: I’ve raised many dogs growing up and into my adult life. I have a great passion all animals but dogs especially. From walks in the park to learning basic commands, or making your anxiety filled pet feel safe and comfortable, I can do it all I’m currently working a part time job with my parents so I have plenty of time and energy to give to your best friends. My hobbies keep me at my home while working, so I’m available to drop what I’m doing and assist with whatever it is you need! Pets deserved to be treated as an extension of your family and I will treat them as such. I want my clients to feel happy that I’m coming over and your dogs to show their excitement because we have built a relationship and are excited to see me. That being said i will acclimate myself to your needs and make sure your dog is cared for in a way that you can feel stress free while you are not at home.
About: Hello everyone! I just moved to the lower DE area after recently graduating from Penn State (May 2025) with a degree in animal science. I have 2 years of emergency VetMed experience and training and am able to assess emergency situations and give basic life saving measures. I have worked with puppies and kitties all the way to seniors. I am committed to keeping your pets healthy, safe , happy, and stress free! I am currently a stay at home cat mom with no commitment to outside jobs or projects at the moment so I am available almost all the time I have had two senior cats for 3+ years that I adopted and they tend to be a bit spoiled. They enjoy walks outside in their cat stroller and constant attention and play.
“Abigail is awesome! I have had her twice to walk my puppy Golden and I was very nervous and guilty about leaving her! Abigail was on time and communicated we’ll witness which allied my fears And guilt! I will have her visit Bella in a heartbeat! She is a gem!”
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. Growing up, I always had at least one animal in my house, from guinea pigs to cats, dogs to parrots, I’ve always loved having a furry friend around. I currently have one cat who is my absolute world. I promise to bring that love and affection to every animal. I’m not the type that is satisfied with taking a dog for a quick walk around the block and leaving him or her alone. They deserve to be treated like the family members that they are! I also understand that some animals have special needs and I am very patient when it comes to making time for those needs. Let me know if you have any questions for me! I can’t wait to take care of your fur babies! I work full time Monday through Friday but I am home most weekends. I only work until about 5pm most weekdays so if your furry friend needs some late night attention, I can definitely provide that. I treat every pet and home as if it were my own. All pets deserve hugs and kisses upon arrival and a kiss goodbye every day. They’re fur babies after all! I am very diligent about cleaning up after my cat and it will be no different when it comes to your pet: cans of food get rinsed out and go in the recycling bin, doggy poop bags go in the trash, and litter boxes get scooped every day. They rely on us to do these things! That’s the whole point of having a pet!

About: I grew up with my family being a foster home to all animals from dogs, cats to Amazon parrots to llamas! I have my vet tech license, I worked at an animal hotel/daycare where we babysat, groomed, bathed, walked and played with every animal like they were our own! I have my own business and work from home. My schedule is completely flexible to your needs! I know some things are last minute and I’m the person who you can count on to especially help in last minute situations 🙂 I have 3 acres and fenced in yard that’s divided to cater to every pets needs. If they don’t get along with other animals that’s fine, if they need extra attention that’s fine! Your pets will be in good hands 24/7. I follow directions carefully as no pet is the same!
“Courtney is magnificent. We have an older cat, who demands lots of attention. We were worried about going away for such a long time, but Courtney gave her extra cuddles and really spent a lot of time with her. It really gave us peace of mind to know our "Old Lady" was in such good hands.”
