“Erin was wonderful with my good boy Mr. Bear. She spent extra time with him and worked with the changes I made to the schedule. She is a great photographer too and took amazing photos of my super handsome man. I would 100% hire her again for any petsitting needs.”

“Greg did a great job with Jack! He stopped by before his bookings for 2 meet and greets to make sure Jack was comfortable. He went above and beyond with the walks, hangouts and training. We’re excited to book Greg again and we know Jack is too.”

About: I've loved and taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, mine and other people’s too! It started with my childhood German Shepherd, JoJo, who waited at the end of the street every day to run along side the school bus because she knew I was on the that big, yellow, beast. More recently, I loved and cared for my orange and white, Manx cat, Sid, named after Sid Vicious because he was a little vicious when he was a kitten. My experience taking care of other people's dogs began 22 years ago when a co-worker needed help with her Pomeranian when she went on a trip. I dog sat for her several times. When she realized she no longer could keep her Pom, she let me adopt her. For about 4 years, I raised German Shepherds, including ones imported from Germany. During that time, my partner and I also trained German Shepards for a sport called Schutzhund. It's a sport that tests a dog's tracking, obedience and protection skills. I also trained dogs of all breeds and mixed breeds obedience, cute little tricks and manners. You know what I'm taking about with manners! haha jk I love teaching dogs new tricks! I’m comfortable taking care of puppies, adults and senior dogs; anxious and timid dogs and with administering oral and topical medications and following special instructions and giving extra attention and longer walks if desired. If your dog has a strict routine, you can be at peace knowing I will follow your dog’s routine exactly how he/she is accustomed to it being. If you choose me as your dog sitter, your dog will be showered with love, time and attention. I love taking your dog for walks, playing in the backyard and cuddling on the couch, whatever your pet likes, needs, and enjoys. I am here to help! In addition to taking care of your pets, I am a freelance writer and artist working from home, and I have a very flexible schedule. We can make plans in advance for me to take care of your pet and I can usually be available on short notice. When I'm pet sitting in your home, your pets are my focus, but if I do need to step out for any reason, I'll be sure your pets are safe, happy and your home is secure. I'll leave your pets loved, and your home clean for when you return.

About: “Hi, I’m Jenny, and caring for animals is more than just a job—it’s my passion and purpose. I believe every pet deserves love, patience, and understanding, especially when they’re away from home. With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities, I’ve learned how to make each pet feel safe, happy, and truly at home. Whether it’s cuddle time, playtime, or peaceful walks, I treat every pet as if they were my own. Your furry family member won’t just have a sitter—they’ll have a best friend.” Taking care of dogs is my full-time job so I will have enough time to play with your dogs all day and get all their energy out I have a fence yard with plenty of room so the dogs can run around. I have designated sleeping and play quarters inside. And plenty of toys and treats to give them all throughout the day.

About: What sets me apart from other dog caregivers is my genuine love for dogs and the experience I’ve gained from being a dog owner for many years. I currently own a beautiful pit bull that is 11 years old ,her name is Blue. Before my dog Blue, , I owned a miniature pinscher for 14 years who passed away from old age and being ill.I understand that every dog has its own personality, needs, and routines. I enjoy spending time with dogs, making them feel safe, loved, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Especially knowing how important it is to me, when I am away, to know that my dog is cared for fed, and feels safe. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or simply companionship, I treat every dog with the same care, patience, and affection that I would give my own. I do currently work full-time. Although I work full-time, I am done work at 2:30, and off in the summer. My husband has recently passed away. I have a lot more time on my hands to give your pet a lot of love. I am done work early enough that I can get to an owner‘s house for a dinner feeding for your pet, letting your pet out if you have a fenced yard , if not a walk. Playtime for your pet companionship whatever the case may be my weekends are free and my summer . It is then that I could provide overnight stays. Having a dog myself, I would not provide any services at my home, however, I would gladly come to your house, carefully come in, call your dog’s name and provide whatever services you would like. Those services would include a 15 minute visit or a 30 min visit In a 15 minute visit: *Let dog out/ short walk * Fresh water/ feeding *Lots of attention/ affection 20.00 30 min drop in * Walk/yard time *Feeding / water refresh * playtime/ companionship *Poop cleanup * photo text update- 30.00

About: I have experience with larger dogs, small dogs, and cats as well. I help cater to any special needs or requests you may have such as administering medicine, special diets, and keeping you updated on their well being. Good for quick walks or staying with your pet overnight. I worked in everyday in Brooklyn, NY as a dog walker/pet sitter from 2019 to 2023. I have since then have been traveling around as a pet sitter for the last two years in-between taking care of some important family business. I have grown up raising German Shepherds all of my life and love to know that I am helping someone's day out by being able to care for their pet while they are not able to. I am currently available for any time and can even travel to you if needed for extended overnight stays. Your pet's needs come first for me. I will care for your pet at your home and follow the routine they are used to. Whatever makes them most comfortable is how I will take good care of them.

About: I have had a dogs my whole life, and they are what brings me the most joy in life. My last dog Henry passed away almost 2 years ago and since then I have been fostering, which is super rewarding. I have also been volunteering with PAWS for 5 years, and am there every Friday morning to help care for the pups. I have had experience with all kinds of dogs from 80lb Pitties to teeny tiny Chihuahuas, from strays who are terrified when they arrive at the shelter to ones that have boundless energy and love on everyone. My camera roll in my phone is pretty much consumed with pictures of my shelter pups, who I feel so honored to be able to be part of their journey to finding their forever homes. It would be a privilege to add your fur baby to the long list of dogs that I have had the pleasure of having in my life :) I am a real estate agent, so I make my own schedule, and can easily fit caring for your pup around my showings and office time. I will be more than happy to travel to your home and spend some time with your pup. I can walk them, have yard time with them, play fetch or tug of war, feed them, pet them, and just generally spend some time with them while they wait for their humans to come home. If you have extra things that need to get done such as brushing, nail clipping, medicine to give etc, I can take care of that as well. Basically whatever you need done to make your pet feel comfortable and safe, I can handle. I appreciate the opportunity to be part of your pup's routine.

About: I love caring for animals of all species. I would be so grateful if you trusted me to care for your animals the same way as I do mine. My schedule is ever changing but open. I am extremely flexible and am available for last minute meetings. Planning dates a month in advance or same day works for me. I will always be honest on when I can care for your pets as finding care is stressful. My cat loves to hang, so besides the normal feeding and daily litter cleaning, I like to make sure he’s stimulated. I play with him with all his toys, cuddle, take him on walks, and eat with him when I can.

About: I can’t remember a time I didn’t have a pet of some sort under my care! From dogs, to birds, to fish, to frogs, I’ve really done it all! While I don’t have a furry friend of my own yet in vet school, I would love to take yours in and treat them like my own. I’ve already dedicated my life to the wellbeing of animals—why not include yours in that too! I’m currently a veterinary student so my schedule is a bit dynamic! I’m free 24/7 over the summer, but starting in September my schedule becomes a bit more dynamic. Feel free to reach out and see if our availabilities are a match! I live in a residential area with sidewalks (and a park!) perfect for daily walks, and I even have a fenced-in yard for extra play time. No other furry friends currently—so all of my attention will be on your baby!

About: I’ve been caring for my own dogs since I was 12 years old and have years of hands-on experience with daily feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and basic grooming. I’m attentive, patient, and comfortable following detailed care instructions to make sure each dog feels safe and loved. I’m in class weekdays 9–4, but I’m fully available after 4 PM for walks, drop-ins, and playtime. I’m happy to work around my class schedule and your dog’s routine. I care for dogs in their own homes so they can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I closely follow all care instructions, keep routines consistent, and prioritize safety during walks, feeding, and playtime. I’m respectful of clients’ homes and always communicate updates to ensure peace of mind.

“Mia did a fantastic job looking after Willow this weekend. This was the first time my partner and I left home for the weekend without our cat since we adopted her, and working with Mia eased all of our stress. She was very communicative and trustworthy- I would highly recommend booking with Mia.”

“My cat friends and I give Amanda five stars! She was very thorough and conscientious and made me feel they were in good hands. I definitely will ask for her assistance in the future!”

About: I’ve always loved caring for and hanging out with pets. For years I have loved pet sitting for my neighbors as well as taking care of my own. I’m willing to feed, give baths, take walks, play, give company, the whole nine yards. I identity as a neat freak, so if any messes are made, I make sure to clean up. I have a pretty flexible schedule aside from my work commitments! I am free all day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. Additionally, I am free until 4pm on Mondays, Saturdays, and Sundays, and free after 6pm on Wednesdays. I live in a very nice and walkable area in South Philly that is perfect for walks. I’m also right next to a dog park! Additionally, if I enter your home for a job, I will be sure to treat it as my own.

About: I have experience with both cats and dogs (small-medium sized) from the last several years. I grew up with two yorkshire terriers, Gucci and Kuky, who unfortunately passed away in 2020 and 2023. In college, I adopted a tuxedo kitten, Ghost, with my roommates, who I lived with for four years. I was also part of a companion animal club that was dedicated to training future ESA dogs!
