Heather starting walking our dog Stella in preparation for when I went into labor with our daughter in April. She’s been a huge help as we adjust to parenthood. Stella loves Heather. She’s always excited for her walks with Heather, and comes back relax. Heather is always prompt and great communicator if any conflicts arise.

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).

About: Aside from growing up with a dog and always around friends and family members' pets, I have also been a pet-sitter for family and neighbors since I was 15. This included walking and feeding dogs and feeding and playing with indoor and outdoor cats. I also have experience with cat-sitting for pets with special diets. I am a pet-lover through and through, and two years ago, I finally adopted my two cats, Olive and Martin. It has been a blast to care for them and watch them grow while I work from home. My cat Olive is on a special diet, making me comfortable caring for cats with different dietary needs. I am also very comfortable with providing cats medicine, as I've had to do that with my pets at times. As I previously mentioned, I work from home and am looking to help out folks by taking good care of your pets when you need it. I work from home, so my schedule is incredibly flexible. I am available on weekdays in the early mornings, over lunch, and in the evening. I also completely available on weekends. I am really looking forward to spending my free time with more pets! I first ensure that I have all the necessary information needed to appropriately care for your pet. When visiting your home, I always ensure that I make the pet as comfortable with a new person as possible. If your pet is comfortable, I always play with your pets and give them lots of pets. Most importantly, I ensure that they are fed, have water, and go outside/have a clean litter box. Lastly, I will communicate my visits with you and send pictures of your pets!

Renee has cared for my 10 month old Doberman puppy for 5 months now on weeks when I am in office. She is quick to respond, highly communicative, and flexible with my puppy’s changing medical needs. I can tell that Renee cares about what she does, and it’s been a huge relief to find someone who can confidently handle my high energy pup. I’ve used a few dog walkers due to various scheduling needs, and Renee has been our favorite 🐶 I recommend her for all your doggy’s care needs!

Anne was sensitive to Boss’s hesitation and took the time to let him get comfortable with her. She always made sure she left him with fresh water and she was thorough in the notes she left in his Rover card after every walk.

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely care for pets like they’re my own. I’ve grown up around family pets and have experience helping care for them, along with dog walking and daily routines. I’m patient, reliable, and make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a playful walk or quiet time at home, I keep things calm, familiar, and homey so they feel at ease the whole time. I work from home Monday through Friday, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I also go on daily runs, and I’m happy to include pets that enjoy being active and going for walks. I have open availability and a spacious two-bedroom home where pets can comfortably roam and feel at ease during overnight stays. I care for pets by keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. In my home, I provide a clean, spacious space with cozy beds, toys, and plenty of attention so they feel at home. In a client’s home, I follow their usual schedule, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions, while making sure they get care, exercise, and companionship. My goal is always to keep pets relaxed, happy, and well cared for.

Rebecca was excellent. She communicated well, was friendly and enthusiastic, and handled a new situation with ease. She took the time to do an extra meet and greet to connect with my dog and me and understand all of our needs. She was composed with my eager pup who can be a handful when excited to meet new people. She handled a situation gracefully with my poor communication. Rebecca is clearly a dog lover who will channel that energy into her work. I would highly recommend Rebecca for your pet care needs.

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.

John has been so great walking our dog! He has been reliable and takes him on great walks, and our dog seems to really like him. He really took time to get to know him and we so appreciate that. Sometimes we also get really fun creative summaries of how Palmer did and what their walk was like- which is my favorite part! It’s so nice that he makes us feel included and up to date while we’re away from our dog.

About: I was always the go to pet sitter in my neighborhood. I have cared for dogs of all sizes and many different breeds. I have experience with dogs who are difficult to walk, such as dogs who pull on the leash or run at cars. I also have experience whith dogs who are reactive to other dogs or people. In addition I have cared for a couple of adopted dogs who have trauma from past situations. I understand the need to spend more time with a dog than just walking them if you are away for a long period of time. I have also cared for dogs who needed to be given medication. At the moment I only work mondays and tuesdays from 8:30-4:30 so I am free the rest of the week including weekends. I will make sure to the best of my ability that you house is in the same condition It was when you left. I ensure that you and your pet have the best, most stress-free experience possible. I will do my best to respond to any messages from you right away while your pet is in my care.
