Dog Walking In North Central Philadelphia

“Ana has been a super reliable and responsive walker for our dog! She's always there on time and gives great updates for us. I'd definitely recommend her as a walker!”

“Mason is very friendly and clearly has a big love for animals. He did a great job walking our dog Cricket. Will definitely book him again!”

James R.

“Rebecca was excellent. She communicated well, was friendly and enthusiastic, and handled a new situation with ease. She took the time to do an extra meet and greet to connect with my dog and me and understand all of our needs. She was composed with my eager pup who can be a handful when excited to meet new people. She handled a situation gracefully with my poor communication. Rebecca is clearly a dog lover who will channel that energy into her work. I would highly recommend Rebecca for your pet care needs.”

“Reno is a return visit and is fantastic. Everytime I have to work in Savannah, it's nice knowing I have someone I can trust to walk the little Bandit.”

Krystina F.

“As always, Paulina was a pleasure and was extremely patient with our dog who doesn't always want to walk far. She does a great job and is super reliable and flexible!”

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely care for pets like they’re my own. I’ve grown up around family pets and have experience helping care for them, along with dog walking and daily routines. I’m patient, reliable, and make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a playful walk or quiet time at home, I keep things calm, familiar, and homey so they feel at ease the whole time. I work from home Monday through Friday, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I also go on daily runs, and I’m happy to include pets that enjoy being active and going for walks. I have open availability and a spacious two-bedroom home where pets can comfortably roam and feel at ease during overnight stays. I care for pets by keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. In my home, I provide a clean, spacious space with cozy beds, toys, and plenty of attention so they feel at home. In a client’s home, I follow their usual schedule, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions, while making sure they get care, exercise, and companionship. My goal is always to keep pets relaxed, happy, and well cared for.

“Areana has been absolutely amazing with my pup Chloe! She has done overnights, drop ins and walks and each time she has gone above and beyond for Chloe. Chloe has health issues and she is a reactive dog. Areana was very attentive to all her needs and communicated with me frequently. I would recommend Areana to anyone in need of someone to care for their fur babies!”

About: I grew up with multiple dogs and so have had experience since youth walking, feeding, and caring for them. In my adult life I have co-owned one dog for around 6 years and worked to house-train him and correct some behavior issues via positive reinforcement. I have also owned multiple cats over the past 16 years including raising one from kittenhood to adulthood. For the past 2.5 years I have been volunteering regularly with the in-house dogs at the PAWS (Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society) Gray's Ferry clinic. My responsibilities include giving the dogs ample enrichment time outside by playing with them and positively reinforcing good behaviors, as well as feeding and cleaning up after them. I have worked there with all different dog sizes and age ranges, including puppies and seniors. I am available for check-ins mornings, mid afternoon, and evenings as well as overnight care as needed. I am not currently available for boarding dogs at my home. I currently do not own any dogs but I do own one high-anxiety cat whose behavior is being managed well with daily medications mixed in with his food. I'm very patient with both cats and dogs and am always ready to give them plenty of space to approach me and begin to feel comfortable with me in their own time. I am comfortable caring for dogs via feeding, walks, playtime, and medicating as needed. For cats I can provide feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime or just hanging out, and medicating as necessary. I have experience pilling cats if the cat's personality allows for this.

About: Hi! I’m a 26-year-old event coordinator who absolutely loves dogs and staying active. I grew up with dogs and have always been surrounded by furry friends. During the summer of COVID, I helped train my aunt’s German Shepherd puppy, and it quickly became one of my favorite experiences. Walking is my passion — fun fact: last year I challenged myself and walked 50,000 steps in one day! I would love to put that energy to good use with your dog, whether it’s a short stroll, a long adventure, playtime breaks, or just letting them out for bathroom breaks. I’m also happy to stay at your residence if needed. I’m here to help in any way I can and would be honored to care for your pup with love, enthusiasm, and reliability!

“Sabin was absolutely great in walking my Ellie. I had an odd situation where I needed a walker while Ellie stayed with my elderly Dad who could not walk her easily. Sabin was very accomodating and left a very positive impression on both me and my Dad. He was professional, kind and trustworthy. I will definitely contact him again in the future.”

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was a teen, wether that be helping family or friends out when their away by popping in checking on their pets, taking them out on a daily walk, playing in the park, or just giving them overall company! I also have a 17 years young fur-baby myself who is disabled so I am no stranger when it comes to the needs of our friends who need a little bit more tender love. I am currently working part-time, The rest of the time I am avaliable to play with your furry friends, take them out on walks, and check on them. I am also open to house sitting on the weekends as well. For a clients home I try to keep as normal as an environment as possible to make them comfortable. I also try to keep them on as regular of scheduling as possible for things such as walks, food, play, and even medication.

About: Hi my name is Sarah and I’m *almost* as hyper as your dog 🤣🩷 I’ve taken care of dogs professionally on and off for ten years, am confident w both dog sitting and shorter walks/check-ins, and have nearly full availability at this time. I am a runner, so can comfortably provide services that will tire out even the most hyper of dogs! I also have experience caring for senior dogs and dogs with medication needs. Please don’t hesitate to reach out, and I’ll do my darndest to make sure your pup has the best walk/day/*insert period of time here* EVER! 💞💞 I’m currently doing flexible remote work, so I have lots of availability to care for your pet! I am open to multi-day bookings and very flexible with longer term care as well as shorter check-ins and walks 🩷 I have essentially full availability on Fridays and weekends; the only time I am not available is 6-10pm on weekdays, as I’m currently in school for massage therapy :) Anything outside of that window is fair game! I take a very attentive and energetic approach, making sure to put safety first in everything. I absolutely love dogs and am very eager to explore the city and get moving myself, so I see dog-walking and pet sitting as something I get just as much out of as you and your pet! I do not currently have any pets in my home, so would be open to boarding in the future at my place in Fishtown (granted, probably a better idea for smaller dogs and cats, as my apartment isn’t ginormous).

“Jessica was great! She was very responsive and sent multiple updates throughout her time with Sadie! Sadie loved her - would reccomend and use her again!”

About: I have experience caring for cats of all ages and personalities. I can handle feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, brushing, playtime, and administering oral medications if needed. I understand that cats can be sensitive to change, so I’m patient and calm, giving them space when needed while still providing plenty of affection and attention. I am fully available throughout December while I’m home from school, which allows me to be very flexible with my schedule. I have reliable transportation and can travel easily for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting. I’m happy to accommodate early mornings, evenings, and last-minute requests whenever possible. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priority. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions and pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and needs. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment, secure doors and leashes at all times, and supervise playtime. In your home, I respect your space and routines to ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable.

About: Being the oldest, my siblings and pets were always my responsibility. Now that I’m grown I don’t have any kids however I have 5 dogs. I love the fur babies. People think I’m crazy for loving dogs so much. I think they’re crazy for not understanding. I do media coverage for events so my schedule is super flexible as the events aren’t every day. I shoot for a few hours then I have the rest of the day free. I treat pets and property with utmost respect and care. I don’t just do what I’m being paid to do. If something needs to be done I’ll do it as long as it’s approved. If your dog went to the bathroom, I’ll clean it up. Things like that.

About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for cats, dogs, and bunnies! I have cared for special needs pets, sick pets, puppies, kittens, etc. I feel comfortable working with any type of dog or cat. I am able to follow clear instructions about any specifics routines, medicines, etc that your pet may need. I will go out of my way to do anything that your pet may need! I spend much of my free time advocating against animal cruelty and researching ways to make our city better for animals. I care passionately and seriously about every animal on the planet. I’m currently an online student and am home full time so I am availability at any point for drop ins and anything your pet might need. I am open to taking your pets for walks, playing with them, or caring for them in any capacity you see fit. I have mastered the art of calming pets down and helping them feel calm and safe in any environment that they’re in. I have boarded multiple cats and made sure they were well fed, cared for, and played with.

“Kassandra was fantastic! She walked my 50 lb doberman/vizsla mix over the course of a week, and was great with her. She's flexible with scheduling and was so accommodating despite my insane schedule. Book her if you get the chance!”
