About: I’ve been in the veterinary field since I was 12 years old working as a vet assistant. For the past 2 years I’ve been working as an ER vet nurse. I’m very experienced with watching pets, I watch family and friends pets frequently. Also, with my experience as a nurse I’m very comfortable taking care of pets who need more medical in-depth care (daily medication, monitoring BGs/insulin, inhalers, etc) I also have experience in any emergency situations. Your pets will be very safe in my care! I currently am a stay at home mom to my two wonderful kids! They both are great with pets! I’m available 24/7! I currently have a dog and an outdoor cat who I love and care for daily! My house is built to have multiple pets in! With a split up back yard, fully fenced in, I can take multiple pets who don’t get along. I love pets And will provide the best care and love for yours!

About: I’ve had dogs around my house for my whole life, & have volunteered at dog shelters for 4 years now. On free weekdays and weekends, I walk, train, and (occasionally) foster dogs at the shelter, so I am confident in my dog-loving abilities!! I’m currently on summer break, so I am very available! I am able to walk, play, and care for your dog(s) at any time during the week/weekends. I have a large backyard and live next to many trails. I also have 1 fur-baby at home (male, mix) to keep your dog company, and I have a large crate (if needed/preferred)!

“INCREDIBLE! Christian from the minute we did our meet and greet made us feel so confident with leaving our Callie with him. He demonstrates an outstanding understanding of dogs, their behaviors, and needs. It was immediately clear how seriously he takes this. This isn't a side gig, this is his full time job. He sent us frequent picture and video updates throughout the day of our Callie girl hanging with his pack, out on walks, and lounging with the family. I do worry that if we keep bringing Callie that she won't want to come home!”

Michael O.

“Taylor was amazing! Really helped us out by watching the dogs on short notice. She was so communicative and sent me pictures which I love.”

Christina M.

“I could not be more happy finding Lisa to watch my 15 month old Boxer, Gracie. The communication, her gentle demeanor, and the area that Gracie played in was outstanding too. My wife was on a sister trip and I had a golf tournament in Reading, PA but we were both relieved when Lisa agreed to watch our baby. 5 stars is not enough on how we feel...make it 10 STARS! We'll be using her again, I'm sure! May God bless Rover & Lisa!!! Sincerely, Dell & Sharon B.”

Dell B.

“We can not say enough about how wonderful Jean is and such a caring person. Our Bella had such a great day with Jean and little Muffin. We will definitely be using Jean in the future when we need a dog sitter for Bella.”

About: What truly sets me apart from other sitters is my deep and varied pet care experience, fueled by genuine love and mirroring the dedicated care I provide my own furry family. Beyond standard sitting, I offer a nuanced understanding of canine behavior and individual needs through dog training, certified pet therapy volunteering, shelter and rescue assistance and fostering dogs of all ages and backgrounds. This comprehensive experience allows me to provide specialized care, especially for puppies and senior dogs. My commitment goes beyond simply supervising dogs. I strive to create a comfortable, enriching and safe environment where your dog is family, receiving the individualized attention and understanding they deserve. Pet care is deeply integrated into my daily life; it's my full-time dedication. Daily Routine: Morning (6:00 AM - 8:00 AM): My day often begins with my own pets. This includes: Feeding: Ensuring everyone gets their appropriate breakfast, fresh water and medications Potty Breaks: Taking them outside for their morning elimination. Exercise/Playtime: A walk in the yard, a quick game of fetch, to get their energy levels up. Health Checks: A quick visual assessment to ensure everyone is looking and acting healthy. Mid-Morning/Afternoon (Variable): This is often when I schedule client visits or depending on the day, this might involve: running errands Boarding Care: For dogs staying with me, this includes regular potty breaks, supervised playtime in my yard (often integrated with my own dogs if appropriate and safe), and individual attention. Evening (5:00 PM - 8:00 PM): This mirrors the morning routine for my own pets: Feeding: Dinner time for everyone. Potty Breaks: Evening elimination walks. Relaxation/Affection Time: Cuddling on the couch, gentle petting or quiet playtime. Preparing for the Night: Ensuring fresh water and comfortable sleeping arrangements. Late Evening (Before Bed - 10:00 PM - 10:30 PM)): A final potty break before we all settle in for the night. The Mack Pack - Where your dog is family here! Caring for your beloved pet is my full-time passion, ensuring they receive dedicated attention and become a happy member of our pack. We ensure a smooth transition with carefully supervised introductions to our resident pack: Marley and Asher (Great Danes) and Mea (Shepherd Mix ). They'll enjoy stimulating playtime in our monitored group setting on our expansive 2.5-acre fenced property. If needed, your dog can retreat to its own secure, comfortable room (with optional crate) for peaceful rest. You can expect a happy and well-exercised dog upon their return.

“Gabrielle has been an incredible dog sitter for our two pups! She’s not only hands-on and attentive but also takes a personal interest in helping our new puppy with those inevitable puppy behaviors. Her dedication and expertise are evident in the progress our pup has made while in her care. Beyond that, she goes above and beyond to ensure our dogs are happy, taking them on fun adventures and sending us the most adorable pictures that brighten our day. It’s clear she truly loves what she does, and our dogs adore her in return. We wholeheartedly recommend Gabrielle to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and skilled dog sitter. She’s the best!!!”

About: I am a conservation biologist working primarily out of my home on 4+ acres in Montgomery Country. I would love to take care of your dog(s) or cat(s), either in my home or yours. I grew up on a horse farm outside of Boston, and have ridden and owned horses since 1985. At my home, I currently have five goats, two donkeys, three dogs, two cats and two goldfish, as well as two horses boarded off site. Every one of my animals is a beloved family member and I treat my many foster animals and guest pets similarly. I have a soft spot for seniors and have adopted a number of very senior dogs from shelters. Currently, I have Jiaozi, a hospice dog adopted at age 13 years from Florida. He joined 7-year old Diefenbaker, adopted from Texas, and Maeve, a recently foster-failed doxie mix from Georgia. Beyond the experience of caring for my own multitude of animals over 30+ years — not to mention hands-on wildlife expertise ranging from chimps to snails — I owned a veterinary clinic for 9 years. In 1999, I started a nonprofit mobile veterinary clinic to provide free and reduced cost spays, neuters and wellness care for pets of families on public assistance. We treated thousands of dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, roosters, and many others. My 2-acre yard is fully fenced with split rail and interior wire fencing. The deck is also gated on both ends, should I want to corral them while working up there. Additionally, I have two fully-fenced pastures (2+ acres) with wire and post. Even with plenty of play in the big yard, I typically hike with the dogs 5 to 7 days per week. I work remotely for clients in the western US and Europe. As such, I typically work a few hours early in the morning, and then more later in the day, when the dogs are fairly tired out. The dogs are rarely if ever unattended in the house and never in the yard without me. The yard is fully fenced with locks on gates. My dogs are accustomed to new dogs as we foster for the Philly shelter (ACCT) when possible. I put no restrictions on pets in the home, but I’m happy mirror all rules or crate if desired.

About: For decades, I've been the go-to pet sitter for family, friends, and neighbors, building a reputation for dependable and loving pet care. While previously balancing this passion with a full-time job, my schedule was more limited. However, now as a proud owner of Kona Girl Wellness, working flexibly from anywhere, I've expanded my pet sitting services. I regularly assist a growing client base, often staying overnight, averaging about 5 days per stay. As an avid runner, I bring an extra dose of joy to the pets I care for. They get excited knowing that with me, they're in for their much-loved long walks. This active lifestyle not only keeps them healthy but also happy. My commitment to providing exceptional care is reflected in the glowing referrals from my clients. Entrusting your beloved pet to my care means they'll receive not just a sitter, but a companion who understands and caters to their needs for physical activity and affection. Pet care seamlessly intertwines with my daily and weekly routines, harmonizing perfectly with my lifestyle as a business owner and fitness enthusiast. Each day, my flexible schedule as the founder of Kona Girl Fitness allows me the freedom to integrate pet sitting into my life, whether it's for an overnight stay or a day visit. Mornings often start with a refreshing run or walk, a joy not just for me but for the energetic dogs under my care. Throughout the week, my pet sitting aligns with my work-from-anywhere approach, ensuring that I'm always available for the pets' needs, be it playtime, feeding, or just some cuddle time. This blend of activities means that the pets I care for are treated to a dynamic, loving environment, mirroring the healthy, active lifestyle I advocate. On average, I spend about 5 days in a stay, fully immersing myself in providing a home away from home for these furry friends. This integration of pet care into my daily life is not just a service I offer; it's a passion that brings joy and balance to my days.

“Maria & David were so kind, accommodating and communicative. We would absolutely leave our furbaby with them again and we highly recommend them if you need a wonderful, trustworthy sitter for your pet.”

About: I am your typical animal lover! I also offer energy work (Reiki) and incorporate that free of charge if your fur baby or babies are open to receiving it. Since I was younger, animals have always been what makes my heart happy and I experience the most joy being around them. Looking forward to meeting you and your precious ones if this resonates! I currently am available anytime before or after my full-time day job which is usually 6am-2pm Sunday through Thursday and on my days off (Fri-Sat) to cater to and be available for your loved ones! I will let you know ahead of time if that changes at all. Attentive and warm loving pets and attention! I currently am not accepting any pets into my home (I have four cats & one dog) but surely client’s homes are a yes.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my adaptability, attentiveness, and ability to anticipate needs. I’m not just there to watch over things—I’m proactive in ensuring everything runs smoothly, whether it’s engaging in activities, maintaining a calm atmosphere, or problem-solving on the fly. I can adjust my approach to match your preferences, whether you're looking for structure or flexibility. My goal is always to provide peace of mind and a positive experience for everyone involved. Pet care can fit seamlessly into my routine by prioritizing consistency and attention to detail. I can schedule regular check-ins, walks, playtime, and feeding times to align with the pet’s needs. Whether it's daily walks for energy, administering medication, or providing companionship, I adapt my approach based on the pet's personality and any specific instructions. Regular updates and communication with pet owners ensure a smooth routine and peace of mind while they’re away or busy. When caring for pets in either my home or a client's home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment for the pets. In my home,I make sure to introduce pets to my space slowly, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure. I stick to their usual routines, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or exercise, and provide plenty of attention and companionship.In the client's home,I respect the pet’s familiar environment, ensuring minimal disruption to their daily routine.I stick to their feeding and exercise schedules, and I follow any specific instructions, whether it’s dietary needs, medication, or preferred play activities.I maintain the same level of attention, keeping their environment clean and comfortable, and provide updates to the owner so they know their pet is in good hands. Overall, whether in my home or theirs, I focus on providing a consistent and nurturing environment to meet the pet’s physical, emotional, and mental needs.
