Pet care experience

2018 Update: After recently only accepting returning clients, I am now back to accepting new clients for a lower rate! I have lived and worked around animals my entire life. My very first job was working at the Cumberland Valley Animal Shelter in Franklin County, PA. Since then, I have worked as an independent sitter for friends and family, as well dog daycares here in Philadelphia. Currently, I am a walker for a pet care company tending up to 10-20 animals a week on average, so I have experience. I am also on Wag now! Please feel free to contact me with any questions, concerns, or if you would like to arrange a meet and greet. Looking forward to becoming friends with your furry family members! Your dog... MUST be trained to do their potty business outside. After a third accident indoors, I will send your dog home. MUST be AT LEAST two (2) years of age to be accepted. MUST get along with dogs AND cats. You... Are REQUIRED to participate in a meet and greet a week before the stay (at the latest). I will not accept dogs whose owners do not have time for a 20-minute meet and greet. Are REQUIRED to have a back-up sitter available to pick your dog up if they are deemed unfit during their stay MUST provide at least one toy and a roll of poop bags. If you are unable to meet any of these requirements, I will not accept your dog. Thank you.

Kennedy was beyond professional, polite, and caring when it came to our 2 dogs. We felt at ease leaving them with Kennedy and look forward to the next time he can watch them.

Kennedy - thank you so much for keeping our boys company while we were away. We enjoyed our vacation knowing our pups were in good hands.

Information Kennedy K. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about your dog's eating habits. What do they eat? How often? Is food their favorite thing like it is mine? How are they around other dogs? On the leash? Do they have any medical or personal needs? What is their favorite band from the 1970s? Any information you are able to give me about your dog is a plus, no matter how minimal it may seem.

A typical day

The great thing about living in South Philly is how close we are to so many parks waiting to be sniffed and peed in! There are too many places to explore and play frisbee. Once your dog gets all the exercise they need, they'll be able to chow down at base and take a well-deserved nap wherever they'd like (except on top of the fridge). It goes without saying that each dog has a different style of playing and relaxing, so I'm relying on you, the owner, to tell me about your dog's favorite pastimes and deepest, darkest secrets... Jokes aside, I am able to accomodate most dogs, no matter how hyper or lazy they may be!
