About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and the experience I've gained caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I volunteered with ACCT Philly Animal Shelter, where I helped care for both dogs and cats with a wide range of temperaments and needs. That experience taught me how to be patient, attentive, and adaptable, whether working with energetic puppies, shy rescue dogs, or senior pets that need a little extra care and compassion. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my family always had multiple pets, and I was known as the one who spent the most time caring for them. Whether it was feeding, walking, playing, or simply making sure they felt safe and loved, I naturally took on that role because I truly enjoy being around animals. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience because they're a puppy or senior, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family. Pet care isn't something I fit into my routine—it's a part of my everyday life. I truly believe that when you choose to have pets, you make the time for them. The people closest to me joke that I'm a bit of a "helicopter mom" with my animals, but I think that's exactly why we have such a strong bond. I love going above and beyond to make sure my pets are happy, healthy, and enriched. On nice days, I bring my cats out onto our secure porch so they can safely enjoy fresh air and sunshine. I hide treats around the house to create little "brain games" that keep them mentally stimulated, stay on top of their grooming and hygiene, and make sure each of my pets gets one-on-one attention every day. I think it's important that every animal feels loved as an individual, not just as part of the group. That same level of care is what I bring to every pet I look after. Whether it's sticking to their normal routine, making time for extra play, or simply giving them companionship while you're away, I'll care for them with the same dedication I give my own. I believe the best pet care starts with understanding both the pet's needs and the owner's expectations. I'm also a strong advocate for respecting boundaries—both yours and your pet's. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your furry family member can feel nerve-racking. My goal is to make that experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whether you prefer frequent updates, lots of photos, detailed visit summaries, or specific instructions on how you'd like your pet cared for, I'm happy to accommodate your preferences.

“Jennifer was wonderful! A lot of interaction with our Diesel. Showed true concern for his well being. I would highly recommend her and so would Diesel. Will definitely utilize her services again!”

About: I will provide a fun, family friendly home for your beloved pet to stay while you are away. I have had 1 wonderful dog of a mixed breed that I grew up with during my childhood and one large breed dog that I owned for 10 years during my young adulthood. I currently have 3 dogs at home, 2 pugs and a female golden retriever. I only hope they can bring joy and fulfillment to my children as they grow with our family. I appreciate the time and money that you have spent in utilizing a service such as this instead of a boarding kennel. Thank you for your consideration and I hope we can meet soon! I currently work from home so I am available to care for your beloved pet at anytime of the day. I can do multiple drop-in visits throughout the day. My hours are very flexible. I can walk your dog around the neighborhood if that is what you prefer or let them out into your backyard if you would like drop-in visits at your home. I also provide boarding at my home if that is what you need. I have an unfenced backyard with a lead in the ground so your pet can be in the backyard and have safety and security to run around or I can take them on walks if that is what you would like. I also provide overnight stays as well.

“Pamela & our dog Angus got along fabulously:) Pam stayed at our house for 2 nights to watch our old fella and we couldn’t have been happier! Thank you!”

About: I love pets my whole life. They are like family to me. I am a 100% spoiler, talk to them with a baby voice all the time, like to feed them on time and I really take care of them like they are my kids. i have a fence and a trail to walk the dogs next to my house. I currently have a 15 year old Maltese who is my love. I consider them part of my life and my family. I even flight with my dog twice out of the country because we care about her. Your pets will be in goo hands. I am currently working full time but my husband works in a different schedule and most likely somebody is always with our pets. We treat them like family I have a fence yard with two locks. They will be safe at home. I have two cages in case they will need it to sleep or just to make them safe or sleep comfy.

“Excellent job. Our dog was so happy with Antonio. Thank you.”

About: Growing up we always had dogs and or cats making me learn how to care for them at a young age. Having this love for animals lead me to work at a pet boarding business where I learned even more about how to care for animals. I am currently working a little under full time making my days off perfect for spending the day with your fur baby. Even on the days I work, I am always open to make something work to make sure your dog/cat is being taken care of. I have a fenced yard and three friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I also have two cats that are friendly themselves. If this does not make you comfortable, I am more than happy to go to your house.

“We asked Chelsea to watch our 2 cats and 2 dogs in our house due to our one dog having separation anxiety issues. Chelsea met with us prior to our vacation and met all our animals. She even came on a walk with the dogs, so she could see how they behaved. She did a great time and communicated with us during vacation to let us know our pets were doing well. She also sent pictures which we enjoyed so much. I highly recommend Chelsea for pet sitting!!!”

About: I’ve been sitting, caring, playing, and watching dogs and cats for my friends and family for over 10 years. I also have two French bulldogs of my own.. and they are my best friends! I’m currently only working part time and my hours & days are extremely flexible! Even if you needed me the day of, I’m pretty positive that I can make it work. I’m a reliable and caring animal lover who truly treats every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

“Having a strong connection with my boys, I hoped to find someone who could empathize. Rachel empathized and cared for my nervous lab and demanding staffy for 9 days. But more importantly she took time to get to know my guys and me. They were walked, cared for (during a storm, and late evening). The care Rachel provided helped me to enjoy our trip without worry. Thank you, Rachel”

About: I have been around Animals all my life. I grew up on a farm and have catered to many different types of Animals. I have kept and currently keep Exotic Animals. My entire life revolves around caring for Animals. I have a 2.5 year old Catahoula Bully Mix and currently keep many Reptiles. I look after my parents Cats any time they go out of town and consistently pick up Animal related side jobs whenever I can. I have a fenced in yard at my home but will only be offering care in the client’s home. I am open to any kind of care and any type of Animal. Please reach out for further details!

About: Hi my name is Micaela and one thing about me is that I adore animals! I love all animals so very much. I also feel that I work really well with them. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. Most of my dogs have been big dogs so I’m pretty good with handling any challenge that’s thrown my way. I’ve had more aggressive and protective dogs as well as laid back dogs and I’ve loved all. I’ve also worked at local shelters in my hometown and felt that that helped me gain more experience working with varying animals. I trained a couple of my dogs from a young age and though I’m not certified I felt that I did a pretty good job. I’m very patient and very genuine. I also watched my dogs whenever my parents would go on business trips which was quite often so I’d say this is the perfect job for me! I’m a college student but have majority of my classes online so my schedule is pretty clear. I love being outdoors and in nature so dog walking is right up my alley. I also love just chilling at home so I have no problem with that as well. I will always be respectful of others space especially if they are allowing me to stay in their home and watch their animals. I would say I’m a pretty neat person and don’t mind cleaning up if anything is needed. Genuinely it makes me happy to help others around the house if necessary. I used to babysit for a while and would always tidy up when I could find the time. I recently moved and now live with my grandparents and mom. We also have a chocolate lab who’s very energetic and loves to play. We have a fenced in yard and a conservation close to our house so there’s plenty of space for the animals. We love having dogs in the house.

About: I approach each pet like you would a human by meeting their needs with love. I keep a clean house as well as the fur baby. I am very accommodating and friendly. I request at least 3 days notice unless an urgent need arises. I have experience with training dogs/cats. I’ve house sat for pet owners and cleaned. I’ve even taken care of exotic pets. I’ve worked with rescues who shy away from people. Let’s have a meet with your fur baby and discuss if I can meet your needs. I treat each fur baby like family! I ask to meet up so that the animal feels a sense of trust with me before you part for your journey away. I’d also like to meet you and put your mind at ease.

“We are repeat clients and will continue to be! Our dogs love Christina and she does an amazing job with them!! We are grateful to know they’re in good hands!!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs/animals since my family brought home our first dog, a rescue, named Tank. From Tank, we brought home Snowy (a white German Shepard). My parents instilled in me from a very young age that I would have to help take care of our pets to not only learn responsibility, but also to truly love our pets by showing how to take care of them and so much more. We also had a few cats when I was growing up that I loved so much even though I didn't think I was a car person LOL! I took our dogs for walks, helped give them baths, and fed them on their schedules. I also went with my father to training with our dogs to thoroughly learn demands and how to approach our pets at a young age. My grandmother was also a pet sitter and when I lived with her few a short time I assisted with the dogs she would have at her home whenever she needed my assistance-walking, feeding, and sometimes bathing. Now, my husband and I are the parents to the most crazy, adorable, and full of life goldendoodles, Roman & Tukker! They have changed my life in more ways than I can describe! They are literally our children, and know it! 😅Having your own pupper is something so indescribably special and rewarding. We have self-trained them with commands- sit, stay, paw, in the crate. I hope to be trusted the way I was trusted growing up, and now with my own, with your family member I can safely assume is your everything as my boys are for me! Thank you for reading a little about me! I am flexible to work with your schedule! I am available M-F, and can work together with you if weekend availability is required! I'm here for YOU-let's work together to give you a stress-free experience and give your fur baby the best time while you are away! I will care for your baby the way I care for mine- with love, compassion, pets, and many walks/play time! Whatever your dog/animal needs I will follow your/their routine! My pups go for many walks a day (don't worry that won't interfere with me caring for yours!), eats 3 times a days around the schedule we have prepared for them at home, and we take them to the local tennis court in my neighborhood turned dog park to play fetch and get energy out! They LOVE car rides best of all! Let me show you and your fur baby the best!

About: I was raised alongside litters of puppies and my life has revolved around animals ever since. My family consistently had 8-10 dogs in our home, ranging from big dogs like labs or American bulldogs to smaller dogs like French bulldogs or terrier mixes. Since I was in elementary school, I was tasked with feeding, grooming, walking and playing with all of our dogs. As an adult, I've helped my parents out in watching their many dogs (my dad has 12!) when they are out of town and pet-sitting for friends and family. I adopted my own two cats, who I've had since they were kittens, and love them with almost my whole heart - I have two ferrets that take up some space in my heart too. Ferrets are notoriously difficult pets to take care of, so if I can handle them and all their energy & mischief, I think I'm prepared to take care of just about any creature. I have been conscientious, responsible and caring for my own pets and I promise I'll treat yours the same way :) I work 9-5 on a hybrid schedule but, as a manager, I have flexibility in terms of remote work — I can always change my schedule around to accommodate yours! I need advanced notice for overnight bookings, as I commute into the city twice a week. I can always switch my-in office days with enough of a head's up, so please reach out if my current calendar availability doesn't align with yours! We may be able to work something out. Unfortunately, I know the feeling of coming home from a trip and realizing that some little things were unattended to by a friend I'd trusted with my pets: the water fountain was half full, the litter box hadn't been scooped in a few days, their 24/7 bird streaming YouTube video wasn't on (lol). Of course my pets were still fed, but it didn't feel like they were cared for the same way I would have. I promise that won't happen if I am entrusted with your pet. I am very good at noticing and handling those little details, even if you forgot to mention them, because that's what I would want. That said, I am great at following pet-care instructions, and I'll surely feed, walk, play with (and love) your furry friend according to the schedule you set out.

“Rita was an amazing cat sitter! She provided regular updates and photos of our fur baby. Our house was in great condition when we returned. Highly recommend! We’ll definitely be booking with Rita again :)”
