Hello Friends! I have been a dog sitter for over 10 years and love the company and joy that comes from interacting with a dog or cat! I grew up with a Doberman/Rottweiler mix on a farm with a whole lot of different animals, so I have tons of experience with many different animals. I have been dog sitting since I was in college back in 1999 and, when I left college, it was my main income maker until 2002. In 2009, I worked for a local Philadelphia pet sitting company and have now been solo as an independent contractor for the past 8 years. Pups have always been a huge part of my life, so I love getting to take care of them. I love meeting my clients beforehand so that I can connect with them better. During a meet, I like to make sure that your pup and I are a good fit with one another. I try to help that process along by letting your pooch ir feline friend come to me in their own time so they know that I’m there to be their friend. It’s also a great opportunity to discuss the expectations of the stay and what I can do to make your pup as happy as possible! I make my clients my number one priority and tend to over-communicate to my human clients while their 4-legged family member is in my care. I’m always happy to send daily text, picture, and/or video messages so you can know just how your fur family is doing and what we’ve done for the day. As for my canine client, I would make sure they were happy at all times with walks, playtime, treats and cuddles. * Please note that there is an extra $5-$10 travel fee if requests are made outside for the suburbs outside of the center city area and depending on travel time. I will need to add in and modify that fee if you are located outside of center city.
