Eduardo is very thoughtful in how he approaches and walks Teddy. I really appreciate that he’s taken the time to get to know Teddy’s quirks and habits to make sure he has a great experience on his walks. He’s also very communicative, which I really appreciate! I look forward to having Eduardo spend more time with Teddy on his walks!

Kaitlin was great with Cody, our senior cockapoo. I left Cody with my senior parents and Kaitlin walked him 2x a day for 10 days. I would definitely book her services again.

Ana from the beginning was quick and responsive and willing to meet. She was attentive to asking all the right questions that made me feel more at ease in making my decision. She cared for my dog Zorro while my husband & I traveled, and updated me with pictures and questions along the way! Even though my two cats were not part of her duties, she was nice enough to update me on them. I plan on booking with Ana come further travels! Thank you once again.

About: Hi! My name is Tori and I just graduated from Boston University! I grew up with dogs, hamsters, birds, frogs, fish, and cats. I absolutely love and missed taking care of them so much while I was away. I’d be so happy to take care of your pets too! I can take them on walks, feed them, check in on them, and keep them company whenever you need! My dog Nikki loves when I hold her and sing to her, so maybe yours will too! Not to brag, but I also give the best belly rubs! I am currently working a part-time job, so I can provide excellent care for your pets as soon as I am available! I work mostly in the early mornings. I am completely open to your care needs. I can take your pets on walks, feed them, keep them active and entertained, and most importantly, make sure they feel loved in your absence!

About: I myself have pets since elementary school, we had 2 dogs and a cat, they are like siblings to me I’ll take care of your baby like my baby I’m currently a full-time student, so on class days I’m usually away from home for about 5 hours. Outside of class, I spend most of my time at home, which gives me plenty of time to be with the pets I’m caring for. I always make sure they’re comfortable and taken care of before I leave, and I love giving them lots of attention, walks, playtime, and cuddles when I’m home. I live in a apartment studio, which your baby is safe and secure i’ll provide them whichever they need to accommodate every baby to make sure that they’re comfy and happy

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my patience and my ability to adapt to each dog’s individual needs. I have hands-on experience caring for my own dogs as well as dogs belonging to friends and acquaintances while they were traveling. I am especially comfortable caring for senior dogs and dogs with cardiac conditions. I understand the importance of routine, close observation, and giving medications carefully and on time. I always follow the owner’s instructions in detail to ensure each dog’s health and well-being. I also have experience working with puppies. I know how to keep them engaged with age-appropriate activities, both indoors and outdoors, while maintaining structure and safety. In addition, I have some experience with positive reinforcement training, focusing on patience, consistency, and encouragement rather than punishment. My goal is to provide calm, attentive, and loving care so every dog feels safe, understood, and well cared for. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work remotely and manage my own schedule, which allows me to be flexible and fully available to meet each pet’s needs. I have plenty of time to provide attention, regular walks, playtime, and any additional care a dog may require throughout the day. I’m able to adapt my routine to match the pet’s usual schedule, whether that involves frequent breaks, quiet companionship, or more active moments. Most importantly, I truly enjoy the company of animals and value the time spent with them, making pet care not just a responsibility, but something I genuinely love doing. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets in my home. I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs before welcoming them into my space. Pets in my care stay in a calm, clean, and secure environment where they can feel comfortable and relaxed. I closely supervise them, maintain consistent feeding and walking schedules, and make sure they always have access to fresh water and a safe space to rest. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medications, and any special care requirements. I pay close attention to details and adapt my care to each pet’s needs, whether they require extra patience, a quieter environment, or more frequent check-ins. I prioritize gentle handling, patience, and positive reinforcement at all times, and I keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident knowing their pet is in responsible and caring hands.

About: Hello! I’m known for my calm energy and keen observational skills👁️👁️ I can quickly sense what a dog needs or if something is bothering them. I offer high-quality, relaxed walks and personalized care that puts your pet’s comfort first. With my gentle, attentive approach, I will always make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved during every walk or visit! As a freelancer, I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily and weekly routine. Taking care of pets isn’t just something I fit in—it’s already part of how I spend my time. I always prioritize what the family highlights as most important. From there, I stay observant and responsive: if I notice anything that could pose a risk or discomfort to the pet, I take immediate action to remove or resolve it. Creating a safe and trusting environment is always my top priority!

About: I’ve grown up with a dog companion, and that experience translated into caring for my friend’s Australian Shepherd while he traveled during the seven months I lived in Philadelphia. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of watching my two kittens grow into the sweetest cats, now two years old. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. Your pets will be in good hands with me! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be readily available to care for your pets throughout the week. I’m happy to accommodate different schedules and routines, whether your pet needs a morning walk, some afternoon companionship, or evening care. I’ll work with you to make sure your pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need while you’re away! Your pet’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority. I’ll take the time to understand your pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they can feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they’re used to. I also understand that caring for your pet means being respectful of your home and your trust. If you’d like, I’m happy to send you pictures and updates during my visits so you can see how your furry friend is doing and have peace of mind while you’re away. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and an experienced pet owner. I currently have a 5-year-old rescued cat and a 1-year-old dog, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and responsible, and I enjoy spending time with pets through walks, playtime, feeding, grooming, and companionship. I treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own, and I’m happy to follow each owner’s instructions and routine closely. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I can accommodate walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and extended stays. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own 5-year-old cat and 1-year-old dog. I follow each pet’s feeding, walking, medication, and daily routines carefully. I always prioritize safety, keep doors and gates secure, and provide plenty of supervision, affection, and companionship.

Bluey (my dog) had a fun time on her walk and was super tired afterwards, and empty - she didn't have to go out again for a long time. I already booked more walks with her, thank you Katherine!!

Andrew was a lifesaver. I don't think I have ever seen Andrew and Spiderman in the same room together, and that's the level of heroism he has displayed as our, from now on, designated dogwalker. He was responsive, highly communicative, and flexible. I will always go to Andrew first whenever the need arises.

Isaac was amazing as always, but somehow exceeded our expectations again this time. We had a friend flying in with her dog and needed to add him to the booking. Isaac was incredibly accommodating, had no issues at all, and even guided me through the process of adding him to the profile. This dog was new to Isaac and has a few unique quirks of his own, but Isaac handled everything flawlessly. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our friend's dog was in such capable hands. We also ended up needing to shorten one of the walks, and once again Isaac was extremely accommodating and flexible without any hesitation. We've used Isaac multiple times, and every experience has been outstanding. He is reliable, caring, communicative, and always goes above and beyond. We truly appreciate everything he does and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone they can completely trust with their pets.
