After meeting Christie for the first time and seeing how patient she was with Ellie, I could see she was an animal lover. I was able to relax and have a great time visiting family for the weekend.

Sarah came highly recommended from our old sitter who is leaving town. She is kind, patient, and genuinely caring. Our dog felt comfortable and happy right away, which gave us total peace of mind at meet and greet. Such a nice, trustworthy person—we’d absolutely book her again.

About: I have hands-on experience working at two animal shelters from 2021–2023, where I cared for cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My responsibilities included feeding, walking, cleaning kennels/litter areas, monitoring behavior, comforting anxious animals, and helping pets feel safe and loved while away from home. Before that, I also volunteered at animal shelters as a teenager, which helped grow my passion for animal care even more. Working with rescue animals taught me patience, compassion, and how to handle pets with different temperaments — including shy, energetic, senior, or nervous pets! I currently have a job working in Home Health , but I know how to split my time without burning myself out! I’ll always make time to be sure I can be there for your fur babies whenever you need. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I make sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owner is away. I follow all feeding schedules, provide fresh water, clean litter boxes or pet areas, give plenty of playtime, attention, and affection, and make sure pets stay active and emotionally comfortable in their familiar environment. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to learn their needs and make sure they receive patient, gentle, and dependable care. I also keep clients updated with messages and photos for peace of mind. My goal is always to treat every pet like family and every home with respect and care. 🐾

About: I have had 5 dogs ranging in needs, size, and age (lab, chow chow, dachshund, blue heeler, and corgi). I have provided care to my own pets as well as family, friends, and neighbors for my entire life. I frequently volunteer at the SPCA where I take various dogs on walks and take care of them outside the shelter for a full day. I absolutely love all animals, especially dogs. I am dedicated to meeting all dogs different needs, providing undivided attention to all animals. I am open to provided any needed services and am fairly flexible. I am a current student at West Chester University so my schedule may vary by week (I will update my availability weekly!). I have a lot of free time that allows me to have unlimited time to take care of and love your furry friends!! I currently have 3 dogs, a bird, and a cat. One of my dogs is old (11 years old) so I am used to the medicine and senior routine that he requires. I feed all 3 of my dogs, take them on walks daily, and provide them with the upmost care and love.

You will enjoy that I will give your dog/dogs my full attention.I will give them tons of loving pets and hugs as well as play with them until they want to quit! I will also clean up after them after they go to the bathroom. In addition, I can feed them and fill up their water bowls. Anything your dogs need I will try to provide. I will keep your dog safe and protected while I am there. He/she will surely enjoy their time with me. I can’t wait to meet your adorable furry friend in the near future and can’t wait to work with you! I’m currently a new mom who works part-time so my schedule is very clear! I am free for walks, boarding, and day care any day of the week :) My house has a big yard which makes it very easy for quick potty trips and play. In addition my neighborhood is nice and big with fun trails and parks nearby that I can take your furry friends to! I can crate your dogs if needed and they are also allowed on furniture if that’s what they are used to :)

About: About Me: I adore animals of all kinds! Every pet is unique, with their own quirks and personalities, and they each deserve specialized care. With several years of experience walking dogs for neighbors and pet sitting, I understand the importance of providing a personalized, loving experience. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible and I can cater to your pet's specific needs. My Fur Family: I grew up with a small, fluffy dog named Gracie, and she taught me the joys of training, from potty training to crate training, and teaching her all the fun tricks she knows! My current roommate is an American shorthair cat named Eila, though we mostly call her Miss Bean. I work remotely, so my schedule is flexible for both walking dogs and house sitting. I am also generally available on the weekends with a bit of notice! Pet safety and comfort is my top priority! We will discuss your pet's habits, hygiene, routines, and health to ensure I can give them the best care possible.

Max is AMAZING! She took good care of my two little kitties and sent so many cute pictures so I knew they were doing well! She was able to give one of them their meds too while I was gone, which was a HUGE help! Best of all, she even set my clocks ahead for me for daylight savings time, so I don’t have to worry about it when I get back! Definitely book her!

About: What sets me apart is my positive energy, flexibility, and genuine love for animals. I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have years of experience dog walking and pet sitting for friends and families, so caring for animals is second nature to me. I love getting to know each pet’s personality—whether that means keeping up with a playful puppy, sticking to a routine for a more laid-back dog, or giving extra patience and gentle attention to senior pets. I’m comfortable reinforcing basic training, following detailed care instructions, and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to adapt to your pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, I’m always eager to help and treat every pet like my own! Pet care fits easily and consistently into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on client's needs. Once Summer starts, I will be available more often! I’m able to plan my day around walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, and playtime to make sure pets get reliable, timely care. I’m also good at adjusting my routine when needed, whether that means last-minute requests or extended care. Because I’ve grown up with pets and have experience pet sitting for friends and family, caring for animals is already a natural part of my life. I enjoy building it into my day and making sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box maintenance, medications if needed, and any specific preferences. I’m very respectful of your home and keep things clean, safe, and just as you left them. I take time to build trust with each pet, paying attention to their body language and personality—whether they’re energetic, shy, or somewhere in between. I make sure they get the right balance of play, exercise, and relaxation, while always supervising for safety. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space that’s calm and secure. I keep a close eye on pets, maintain consistent routines, and ensure they feel comfortable and stress-free. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and truly can’t imagine a home without them. Growing up, I cared for pets of all kinds, which helped me become comfortable and confident with different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. As an adult, I’ve continued that passion by owning and caring for my own pets, giving me hands-on experience with daily routines, training basics, and recognizing each animal’s unique needs. In addition to my own pets, I’ve regularly cared for the pets of family and friends, whether it’s walking, feeding, administering basic care, or just making sure they feel loved and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own, with patience, attention, and lots of affection. I am a school teacher, so I am available after school (4 pm or later) and on weekends. I’m also available all day during the week on days I have off and during the summer. I would love to care for your pet in the place they are most comfortable - their own home! And I will take them for walks in their neighborhood, with all the sights and smells they are used to!

I am really happy with Macy. She came a day before to meet my kitty and get the key. She came exactly on time to feed Girly. She cleaned her 2 litters and gave her water. She was also able to get her out of under the bed and play with her. Girly is usually very shy with strangers. I will definitely use her in the future with calm mind that my kitty is in good hands.

Alison was great. Will definately use her again. I have three cats and it was a three week stint... she even managed to get my shy boy out from under the bed and he let her pet him and he purred. First time ever! She was also very good about communicating things. Got a text pretty much every day with pics. She also watered my plants which was a big concern. So, overall, she get an A+. Gail
