Dog Walking in Maple Shade

About: I’m a natural caregiver, experienced with cat care, dog care, and senior dog care. I work in healthcare and enjoy gardening - tending to the needs of all living things brings me immense joy, whether that is through playing with cat and pup toys, going for walks, or cuddling on the floor or couch (if permitted). I’ve worked with pets with hearing and/or vision impairment and am sensitive to their needs. I will truly treat your pet as if they were my own. As a young professional with no kids or pets of my own, I’d love to make myself available to care for your pets! Please note my full time job keeps me away for 8 hour shifts Tues to Friday. I am available for morning walks (6-8am), any time after 5pm, and all day Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. I’m a homebody, so if you choose me to pet sit in your home you can rest assured your pet will receive plenty of good company and TLC. It’s very important to me to follow your instructions to the T. The more you share with me about your fur babies’ needs, the better I can care for them. I appreciate written instructions in whatever level of detail you are willing to provide. I also love to share pics/videos of your pets with you while you’re traveling, if you’re comfortable with that! I’ve completed the American Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid Online training course.

“First 3 days of using Vanessa- lots of communication & pictures. Vito seems happy to be getting a morning walk and break out of the crate. I would recommend her”

“We have been so fortunate to have found Gabrielle to walk Em - she’s patient with her, gives her lots of love, great with communication and has been so cautious with her surgery precautions. We’ve even had neighbors tell us how sweet Gabrielle is to Em when they see them out for a walk. Would highly recommend!”

“This was our first time using Karen and she did a wonderful job. My anxious pup settled in nicely and was very happy in all of the pictures Karen sent. Loved the updates too. Will definitely use Karen again.”

“This was my first time using Rover, Alex has been super helpful when we needed a dog walker the most with a new baby on the way. My rescue coonhound Eddie can be a bit much at times but she made him feel really comfortable. Alex is friendly, reliable, and professional I would recommend her to anyone needing a dog walker or sitter”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was two and love taking care of them. I had my dog for 16 years and have experience with puppies and senior dogs as a result. I have pet sit for my friends and family for many years and have experience with all ages and sizes of dogs. I am a college student in the area and go to school a few days a week. I’m available for boarding any day of the week. I have a fenced yard with no other dogs incase clients dogs have trouble with other dogs. Dogs are welcome to come inside my home as well. For pet sitting in clients homes, I will follow any rules or schedules provided to ensure the safety and health of your pets.

“Alexis is prompt, responsive and flexible. Also she is great with my reactive dog!!!”

About: I’m a patient and experienced dog owner who has lovingly cared for my own dogs from puppyhood through 17 years of age, gaining hands-on experience with every life stage—from energetic early years to gentle senior care. I understand the importance of consistency, exercise, and compassion, and I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, medications, and lots of affection. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I’ve also pet sat for friends, providing reliable, attentive care tailored to each dog’s unique needs and personality. While I don't currently have any pets, I'm a recent dog parent. Our sweet pug crossed the 🌈 bridge earlier in the year. I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pups. This would be a regular part of my weekly routine. When caring for a dog in their home, I would focus on keeping their routine consistent and their environment calm and comfortable. I’d follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, and medications, while making sure the dog gets plenty attention and reassurance. I would monitor their behavior and overall well-being and communicate any concerns. I'll keep their space clean and secure, and provide loving interactions so they feel safe and cared for in their home.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud dog mom of 15+ years. I’ve cared for pups of all ages—from wiggly little puppies to sweet senior dogs—and I treat every furry friend like family. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or medication time, I’ve got it covered with love and experience. You can count on me for awesome care, big heart, and lots of tail wags while you’re away! I work part-time remotely, so I have the time and flexibility to meet an animal's needs. I am home for the majority of the day, including weekends. I live in a beautiful community with plenty of walking paths, your animal would be free to roam my home, or I can create your animal if or when desired. I am also open to stopping by your home to provide feeding/walking services.

About: I’ve had cats my entire life and have always helped out taking care of my friend’s cats and dogs. When it comes to taking full care of other people’s pets I’ve done a couple of pet sitting jobs in the past year or so. While home from college I have free time almost everyday for most of the day! While I may need to go home to check on my own pets or family I can usually spend most of the day with your pets. I’m a bit of a night owl so morning can be rough but I thrive in the late morning and afternoon! I can’t have pets come over to my house because of my cats, but when at your house I can always be there for your animal! Whether they are playing or just want company while lounging at home!

About: While I’m not a professional trainer or vet, I bring years of real-world experience from caring for my own cats. I know it's important to trust someone with your furry family, and I will provide reliable, and awesome care for your pets who need a little extra love when you’re away. I Offer: Daily feeding, fresh water, walks, or anything they need. Playtime, scratches and love. Administering simple medications (if needed) Updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and cared for. I will provide gentle, patient, and attentive care (like I’d give my own pets) Flexible scheduling and affordable rates Whether you need vacation drop-ins, weekend check-ins, or just an extra set of loving hands, I’m here to make sure your pets are safe, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. I am a retired teacher so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets. I love all animals! I can be there when you can't. I will follow your instructions in your home and take care of your pets as you would. I love all animals and would love the opportunity to help you out.

About: I’ve been involved with animals my whole life. While having my own dog for 10+ years, I’ve spent plenty of time taking care of family, friends, and neighbors pets when they were away from home. I’ve helped with walks, feeding, potty and playtime, being someone that could let their pets have someone while they’re away. I’ve also had chances of hosting mini fundraisers to support and supply shelters in the past to give those animals some happiness while they wait for their forever homes. I’m a recent college graduate who is currently looking for some summer work as I continue my search for a professional career. I am available most days of the week, unless discussed otherwise. For dog walks or walk ins, I will not be available for times after 7:30pm. However, I’ll be as flexible as possible when it comes to scheduling potential stays or visits for your pets! I can help with any tasks within my capabilities. I can feed your pets, take dogs on walks, provide some play time or lounge time for the less energetic dogs. I can also give your dogs a bath if ever needed!

“Melissa is great! Our dog is particular and has some fearfulness but she handles him well and followed any routines and tips we gave her. She is very respectful of his needs. Highly recommend!”

“Michael was wonderful with my dog Shelby. He showed up on time each day, and was gentle and patient with her. (She was reluctant to go out sometimes). He communicated with me each day about how it went. Shelby acquainted herself quickly with Michael and started to look forward to her walks. I would highly recommend him. He's definitely a dog lover and is responsible and communicative. Thanks Mike!”

About: I can’t wait to be friends with your dog! As a dog parent my whole life, I look forward to any opportunity to make a new doggy friend. I have experience with small to medium large pups, from puppies to super seniors. I’m a stay at home mom looking to make more dog friends! When my family isn’t home, I have my active cattle dog to keep me company. But I’m looking forward to sharing some of my weekday mornings with your pups! I am available for walks during the following times: Mon, Wed: 9:15am- last walk ending by 1:15pm Tues, Thurs: 9:45am- last walk ending by 11:30am Your dog will be treated like my own! I will do my best to learn how they like to be pet, what they like to sniff best, and what truly makes them happy!

About: I have grown up with a house of animals and helped care for them all including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, bearded dragons, hamsters, rabbits and chickens! I’ve also pet sit for family and friends on numerous occasions. I have lived in Manayunk/roxborough for a couple years and adopted a 3 month old puppy in May 2018. Now that she’s grown up a bit, I’d love to help out with other dogs as much as possible. Most of my experience is with larger dogs (50lbs and up) but I am comfortable with smaller dogs and pets too (including cats and caged animals). I have also had experience with dogs who don’t get along well with other animals, so can accommodate your pup who just needs one on one attention for drop ins. I am also comfortable with puppies, having raised one myself, and know all the extra work that goes into it. I work from home, so can do drop ins during the day. Depending on your preference I can take them for walks, throw a ball in your yard, or just hangout with them in the house! I am very responsible, overprotective and loving. My dog is my baby, and I will treat your dog like my own! I work from home and have a flexible schedule during the work day, from 10AM to 4PM, and can care for your pet during these hours. When coming and leaving your home, I will always make sure doors and fences are secured. I will also make sure there are no hazards for your pup to get into.

“From the first moment Chase met Sarah I felt comfortable with her taking care of my furbaby. Communication was top tier, she was on time and the beat part Chase was excited ro see her. With work making me travel again I know Chase will be in great hand and I plan on using all the services she offers.”

“Robert was amazing with my dog, Teddy! He was reliable, kind, and made sure Teddy got plenty of exercise and attention. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos as it gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Teddy loved him, and I’d definitely book Robert again!”

Julia P.

“Lacie loves Erica and her walks with her. Erica is an excellent communicator, great with Lacie who can be reactive and we really appreciate her!”

“Abigail was amazing with Beast! She walked him all last week and even brought him a play date to come play in our yard! She always communicates with me and sends pictures. This ensures me that he is in good hands. Highly recommended!”
