On a mission to pet all the animals

Pet care experience

Since 2015 I have been regularly pet sitting cats and dogs for friends, family, and references. I have been around animals my entire life and have experience with small, medium, and large breed dogs! I previously volunteered as a foster in South Florida for puppies ranging from 2 to 16 weeks old. My foster journey ended after 3 years, when I had a foster fail, my lab-pit bull mix named Xander, who became a family dog. A few years later, my wife and I moved out and got a dog together, a corgi named Cooper. We have since moved up to Philadelphia and have began pet sitting for locals in our neighborhood! :)

Marc was great with our little pup!! He came over to meet him the night before, which we loved since our puppy can get a little startled when meeting new people. He was excellent with communication and even stayed later than our booking to try to get our pup to poop! Highly recommend and would use again!!
