House Sitting in Logan-Fern Rock, Philadelphia, PA

About: Ever since I was little I have loved animals, so much so that when I was 12 I convinced my mother to let me get a dog, despite her fears of them. I raised, trained (haphazardly 😅), and groomed my dog from a puppy to an adult till she died of heart worms. After, I adopted my sister’s dog when she no longer wanted her. Grooming and taking care of her till I went off to college taught me a lot about caring for an older dog. In between dogs and even now I help my friends with their cats, feeding, grooming, and watching over them when their owners are out of town. I have a lot of experience taking care of pets and I am ready to tackle whatever yours may throw at me! I work part time mornings throughout the week so after I get off I have all the time in the world to take care of your pets. I can devote a great deal of time to walking or sitting. The more time you need the more time I get to spend with your cute fur babies making it a win/win. Typically I like to feed pets around every 3-5 hours, but I am perfectly capable of adhering to any sort of schedule or rules you may have regarding feeding times. I am extremely flexible so if there are any specifics when it comes to the care of your pet I will have little to no problem sticking to your routine.

“Christina was great! she arrived on time and confirmed prior. I have never had hired a sitter before to take care of my dog because he is a puppy and a little complicated sometimes, I was worried that someone wouldn’t be as patient with him but Christina did very good with him. She sent daily updates, pictures and videos. When I came back home everything looked great and my dog was very happy as well!! I would definitely recommend to anyone who is interested in a caring sitter who puts effort into taking care of your pup. Thank you!!”

“A huge thank you to Christina for once again taking care of our babies and our home over the holidays! Working with Christina is a dream - she is professional, responsive, and our pets just love her. We do too! Thank you Christina!!”

“Anna watched two cats over Christmas and I have nothing but great things to say about the care she gave them! I have an elderly guy with a lot of care needs such as pills, supplements, and a chronic wound and Anna did great with him. He’s tough to get to take his pills. When she couldn’t get them down at first, she asked for some tips and with some strategizing, was able to get my little guy’s meds into him. I came home to a tidy and orderly home. I will book Anna again and would highly recommend her to anyone needing excellent pet care.”

“Dana is smart, kind, and responsible. I was grateful to be able to leave my dog in his care! He spent the entire weekend just taking care of my dog -- what a lucky pup!”

Shana G.

“Sabrina did a great job taking care of our senior dog and through her interactions it was clear that she is passionate about what she does. my return travel was unexpected extended due to flight cancelations and Sabrina was gracious to extend her services to match my schedule. Communication with Sabrina was easy and she followed up with me with unexpected behaviors from my pet. We previously aligned that she would be in and out and no stay overnight when dogsitting.”

Joseph P.

“Jasmine was great with my, at times, stubborn beagle coonhound mix rescue. She sent reports and photos daily. He looked so content I don't think he noticed my absence!”

Joan S.

“Maria did a great job caring for Blu and Leo during her stay. She was attentive, communicative, and patient, especially with Blu’s crate training. I appreciated how smoothly the evening went and how she kept me updated throughout the night. I’d happily have her sit for my pets again!”

Tatiana P.

“Tina is so amazing that we want to keep her all to ourselves! ♥️ But that seems unfair so here you go… 1. Tina is a joy in person. Such a lovely human and easy to talk to. 2. She’s so good with dogs that she was completely unfazed by our big wildly energetic lab. They were immediate best friends and ready for adventure. 3. It’s so hard to find someone who is wonderful with cats too and cat would seem to be Tina’s second language. We came home to a blissed out cat who was energetic, lovey, and even put on a little much needed weight. Tina pays very close attention to an individual pet’s needs and our old special needs kitty is totally in love with her. 4. Pictures! Updates! 🎉 We had a consistent and lovely view of happy pets. 5. We are now calling her the immaculate house guest. Everything, and I mean everything, was pristine when we returned. It looked like a huge team of cleaners had been through the house. What an especially wonderful way to come home. All of that said, do not book Tina! We want her all to ourselves. 😉♥️”

“Alec and Akari were wonderful with watching the girls! Very patient and thorough, especially with our hyper puppy”

Casey M.

“Amanda did a great job with our high-energy 4-year-old Mabel and keeping an eye on our place. Very communicative about how Mabel was doing in our absence.”

Tim B.

“Let me tell you: Rachel is the most amazing pet sitter. Reliable, communicative and above all - a magician! She gets my fussy little fellow to warm up and snuggle. He sits on her lap. This is stunning! I feel so confident when Rachel is there. This is an overnight job and Rachel is so considerate and caring of all the little details. She is an ACE.”

Victoria Loeb Z.

“Marisol is fantastic. Had a trip out of town for a night & she sent pictures of my two dogs keeping me in the loop with communication. Have a vacation coming up in the future and I’m utilizing her services again. Highly recommend.”

Glenn G.

“Ceara was an outstanding caretaker for our pets (and our home!). We sincerely can't say enough positive things.....she gave our pets their medicine on schedule, tolerated their following her around incessantly, cared for our home including watering our plants, and her daily communications were always positive and friendly. We would request Ceara again without hesitation. Thank you to Ceara and Rover!”

Nancy S.

“Nija was such an attentive and flexible sitter. Our dog got long walks, scratches and more and our cat was so happy to see her every day. There is nothing better than getting pet mail daily from her.”

Sage C.

“Shannon was terrific. She loved the dogs and the dogs loved her. Our pack is a bit challenging at times and she embraced their quirks. Thank you, Shannon!!”

Inge H.

“Porsche was a top tier babysitter. She watched our fur children for a total of ten days and they loved her! Our reticent cat left her perch and would follow her around for pets! Porsche is definitely a pet whisper and her love of animals is clear in all of her interactions with them. Would 1000% want her to pet sit again.”

Leticia S.

“Areana was great! She was very attentive to my instructions and took care of my babies very well. She kept me updated and was great with the communication before and during the visit. I’ll be happy to book her again!”

Brandy U.

“Anna did a great job watching my dog and two cats. They were all happy and healthy when I returned, and I was reassured by the thorough updates I got while away.”

Sam R.

“Nikki was immediately responsive to my last minute emergency request and I cannot express my gratitude for her enough!! She was incredibly sweet and understanding, very flexible, and took fantastic care of my animals. She was truly a savior to us in our time of need and I would gladly book her again in the future!”
