Safety, trust & environment

I have my own car so I can check in before, between, and after classes. I can also stay overnight if needed. I live in an apartment so I cannot host. I will walk at your dog’s pace and I will prepare their food and medicine with accuracy and care!

Information Claire M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any reactivity issues; I would much rather know that I need to avoid certain triggers like other dogs or cars than have to figure that out on my own. Also, if your dog can get out of breath with too much walking I can slow down our walks.

A typical day

I love to walk, and since I am new to Philadelphia I would love to take your dog on walks to explore the area and local parks!

Temple student + dog lover!

Pet care experience

I’ve worked at dog boarding kennels where I cared for 50+ dogs every day. I will be so happy to just take care of one dog - yours! I’ve cared for older dogs, dogs with special needs (epilepsy, blindness, deafness, diabetes, etc), shy dogs; I love all dogs!

Claire was great with Bean. Very communicative and lots of pics. She also came by for a meet and greet before. Will absolutely be having her stay with bean again!

We are so incredibly happy to have found Claire! Our anxious dog, Bobbie, took to her instantly, which gave us so much peace of mind. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog walker with great communication!

Claire did such an amazing job taking care of our dogs and home while we were away! She is a great communicator- she sends confirmations the day before and lots of updates during the stay. She did a great job with our complicated pups and was sure they got their medicine and vitamins on schedule. She even made the extra effort and developed a strong bond with one of our dogs who is quite selective about humans he likes. She did lots of extra stuff like being in trashcans, feeding the fish, and picking up all the dog toys. She's a fantastic sitter!
