“Thank you for taking care of our dog! She was happy to visit! We were glad to receive the pictures of her playing and got frequent update on how she was doing. Will be in touch for future stays.”

“Our 11 month old Cavapoo seemed to be very happy with her stay. They sent a ton of photos and it was an added bonus that they have a very nice dog. She was able to hang with her new friend all day. They are very responsive and flexible. we feel comfortable booking them for extended overnight stays.”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have been lucky to spend my life caring for them in many different ways. I’ve grown up with dogs, cats, and bunnies, so being around animals feels completely natural to me. I currently work at an animal shelter, where I care for pets with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, and needs. This experience has taught me how to read animal behavior, stay calm in new situations, and provide patient, compassionate care, especially for pets who may be shy, nervous, or adjusting to a new environment. In addition to shelter work, I’ve also worked at a doggy daycare, gaining hands-on experience with group play, structured routines, and safe supervision. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm presence, I tailor my care to what makes them feel most comfortable and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize safety, communication, and trust. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I’m committed to giving you peace of mind, and your pet lots of love. :) Pet care fits easily into my routine, as I have a flexible schedule and am available most days between 8:30 AM and 5 PM. I plan my day around pets’ needs to ensure consistent, attentive care. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and comfortable. I take the time to learn each pet’s needs, preferences, and personality, from feeding schedules and walks to playtime, medication, and cuddle preferences. Because I work at an animal shelter and have experience in a doggy daycare, I’m attentive to behavior, safety, and stress signals. I provide calm, patient care and adjust my approach based on each pet’s energy level and comfort. I make sure pets get appropriate exercise, mental stimulation, and plenty of affection. In a client’s home, I respect the space and keep everything clean and consistent. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is always to create a positive, low-stress experience and treat every pet as if they were my own.
About: I’ve been an animal rescuer since childhood, and have raised my children (12-20) to do the same. My most recent official role in animal care and rescue has been via fostering dogs and cats through the Morris Animal Refuge in Philadelphia. Unofficially, I have been a proud dog mama for 11 years, and cat mama off and on since childhood. My resident doggo Patches is a proud foster father, and is comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages. If you have a pup or cat that could use a cuddle buddy while you are away, Patches is your guy. I am comfortable with and have experience in caring for cats, dogs, small mammals, birds, and small reptiles. I do have a particular aversion to cricket feeding, but we can make it work with super worms lol I do not know much about fish or amphibian care, but I am open to learning. I am a stay at home parent with my youngest children entering middle and high school, so my schedule is fairly open. I’m looking for furry friends to hang out with while I’m home during the day. It’s gets a little lonely in here 😊 I unfortunately do have a disability that impacts the right side of my body. Because of this, I am nervous about larger dogs that jump often (not just excited hellos), or who have strong prey drives and could potentially drag me on a walk. My dog Patches (50lbs) is walked with a gentle lead harness to keep things safe for both of us. I can handle dogs his size - or a bit larger - who do not jump, or who are low energy and would prefer to hang in the backyard rather than taking longer walks. I care for all animals as I would a human family member. I am comfortable with normal day to day care, as well as those who require special needs. I try to be very respectful of the personality of each pet. Some animals are nervous at first, and I’d like to respect their need for space and/or time to warm up to me. Other animals are excited to have a brand new friend, and I am too! Basically, I try to match the energy of who I am hanging out with.
About: I have been taking care of my own pets since I was a small child. I have remote experience with reptiles. I am more comfortable with dogs, cats, and rabbits. I am a human nurse and can administer medications. I know how much we love our pets, so your pet will be MY pet while in my care! I am currently working every other weekend, and I am home during the week. I have a pretty open schedule and can be available for your pets needs! I have a large yard that is partially fenced in. The unfenced part is overgrown with tall vegetation. I have a smaller yard on the side that is fully fenced in. I have an 8lb shihpoo who loves to run and play and 2 cats who will just stay out of the way. We have multiple rooms and floors and can keep animals seperate if needed.
About: I have been neighbor hood babysitter and pet sitter since I was 8 years old. Always be responsible and trustworthy. Treat your property and pets as if they were my own. Animals can't speak for themselves so we must be their voice. I work for myself and have flexible schedule. My business is slow right now an I love animals so it will help me cope an offer best care for those who want the best for their loved pets! Animals are the world to me wish I could have more but I rent. I am allowed to have animals over for few days at a time as long as it's not permanent. Perfect for everyone as your pets will be loved as much if not more then expected. I am a serious animal lover and the care I provide will be noticed. Sometimes people say their dogs not friendly yet ends up loving me regardless of what they say or have experienced with other. Kinda like snow white when it comes to all animals. Recently got 2 rabbits who were dumped and new experience. Amazing to love such small creatures
