Cathy was all I could have hoped for in a caregiver for my sweet kitty. She was loving and followed my directions carefully. Philly was happy to see me when I got home, but calm and content. She had eaten her normal amount of food and Cathy sent pics of Philly playing! The pics were very reassuring. Thank you Cathy.

About: Hi! I grew up with cats since I was a baby. I have experience from kitten to older cats. I also have experience with dogs. I have watched a family member’s dog when needed. I have experience with puppy to older dogs. Hi, I am currently working at a school in Dresher. I’m available during the week till 10:00am and then after 6:30PM.

About: Hi! I’m Camille, and if there’s a dog at a party, that’s probably who I’m talking to. As a pet owner myself, I understand that every animal is different. Some pets want nonstop playtime, some want cuddles, and some prefer their space. I take the time to learn what makes your pet comfortable and happy. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop in visit, or company while you’re away, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. Expect lots of updates, photos, and communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. My goal is simple: a happy pet, a stress free owner, and plenty of tail wags along the way. 🐾💕 Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. As a server, I’m used to being active, managing my time efficiently, and staying attentive to the needs of others in a fast-paced environment. My work schedule gives me flexibility during certain parts of the day, allowing me to dedicate time to walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and playtime. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so pet care is a natural fit for me. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any household rules to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I also make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while their owner is away. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel safe in my care. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: My name is Christian. I am kind, gentle, and fun loving. I will walk, run, exercise, and play fetch with your dog and care for him/her as if he/she were one of my own. I will walk any dog, any size, age, or breed. I’ve always enjoyed dogs a lot. Your dogs will have such a fun time they won’t want to leave. I am available seven days a week rain or shine and my hours are flexible. No matter what, you can count on me to walk your dog. If you require any special requests just let me know and I will see what I can do. If you need your pet washed I can do that too. I look forward to walking your dog!

Christina was amazing! We’d hire her again or recommend to anyone. She was very diligent and thoughtful in her updates after each visit which was much appreciated. She also came by before we left town to meet the cats and do a walk-thru of their routine. Overall great experience while we were away!

About: Hi! I’m a teacher on summer break and a lifelong dog lover. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and started dog sitting when I was 12, so caring for pups has always been second nature to me. I currently have a reactive pit bull, which has taught me a lot about patience, structure, reading body language, and building trust with dogs who need a little extra understanding. She’s also brought me a ton of joy and deepened my love for all types of dogs, especially those with big personalities. This summer, I’m looking forward to spending my time outside, staying active, and making some new furry friends along the way. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and temperaments, and I always aim to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, or just a calm and reliable presence, I’d love to help! My schedule is fairly flexible, especially during the summer, as I work part-time. I have a lot of availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and playtime, and I do my best to accommodate different needs. Occasionally I may be traveling, but I’m always open to messages, feel free to reach out and see what I can make work. I do not offer overnight stays, as I have a dog of my own at home, but I’m happy to provide consistent, reliable daytime care. I always follow the owner’s directions closely to ensure each pet is cared for in a way that matches their normal routine and needs. I prioritize safety above all else and take time to understand each pet’s behavior, preferences, and any special instructions. I also like to do a meet and greet beforehand so everyone feels comfortable and we can make sure it’s a good fit. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and positive environment for every pet in my care.

My weird cats and I adore Allie. I volunteered at a couple of shelters / rescues and truly have some quirky cats, but Allie acted like they were as normal as they come. She was not fazed by their individual eating preferences, oral meds, and sometimes cranky attitudes. Allie also sent daily updates with photos and I have not felt this at ease traveling in a very long time. I'm sure Allie is excellent with dogs, but if you are looking for someone who is amazing with cats, this is your sitter!

About: I have taken care of all my dogs throughout the years since I was 13 years old. I currently have two dogs that I feed breakfast and dinner and play with.

I am so happy to have Brenda to help care for our family’s new puppy. It is very reassuring to me that he has a scheduled playtime with Brenda when we have other commitments. I especially love the pictures that she sends after the visits so that we can see how much fun our little guy had. She is a wonderful sitter!

About: While I’ve never had a dog, I currently have cats and bunnies, so I’m familiar with a good variety of animal care! I love dogs so much, and I’d be so excited to walk and care for your baby! I’m currently a student, but since my school is online, I have a pretty flexible schedule, allowing me to work weekends and weekdays! I can work from 3pm on on every weekday, with unlimited availability on the weekends. In terms of my client’s home, I will care for them with the materials given. I’m familiar with taking care of a variety of different animals, so I’m sure I will provide your pet with a comfortable, caring environment.

Danielle is very reliable and kept us in the loop while we were away with very detailed reports. We missed our flight and needed to extend the care for our boys another day. Danielle agreed to the extra visit without hesitation and that was one less thing for us to worry about so we could focus on getting home

I could see how happy Oreo was to spend time with her with both walks and lots of cuddles from the great photos she took.
