“Mary has been amazing walking my dog everyday while I'm at work. Unfortunately I was laid off so I won't need a dog walker, but if you can get Mary to be yours she will be amazing!”
“Erin did an incredible job looking after our old man dog! Giving pills, taking walks, communicating, etc… we’re all done with care and attentiveness. Will absolute book with Erin again!”
“If you are looking for an experienced, considerate, and dedicated dog walker/sitter, then you've found your match! Gregory has provided dog walks and overnight care for our 60lb hound mix multiple times over the last few months and we couldn't be happier with the care he provides. He is incredibly communicative, provides very detailed updates after every walk (with plenty of pictures included), and has shown the utmost dedication to understanding our dog Izzy and her specific behavioral needs. We have worked with many positive reinforcement trainers in the past to address our pups over-excitability and leash reactivity and Gregory using much of the same language as these dog trainers when discussing strategies he used on his walks with Izzy to help redirect and keep her focused and safe. Our pup is very scent driven on walks which can require a lot of patience and steady redirection, and we are so grateful for how kind and gentle Gregory is when handling Izzy. We've only had one overnight experience with Gregory so far and he took great care of our home and left the house spotless! He also ensured us that he only books one overnight stay at a time to avoid any conflicts in schedule and make sure our dog has company throughout the night and to keep her safe in the event of an emergency. All that being said, you will have no regrets choosing with work with Gregory and we feel very fortunate to have found him!”
About: I have been caring for dogs my entire life! My grandmother was an animal cruelty investigator and my family works in rescue. I care for each pet as if they were my own. I truly love what I do and want to give families the care I would hope to receive when I need someone to look after my pets This is my full time job! I care for pets around the clock. Walks, drop ins, overnights. Whatever you need I can provide with love and care I love when families leave detailed lists of the pets schedule and routine so I can keep their days going as they usually would to help alleviate some stress from their families being gone.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets and animals since I was a little kid. Over the course of my life I have always had an animal by my side! Whether that be a dog, cat, fish, reptiles or even animals like hamsters and rabbits every single one them have been given the love and attention needed! Recently I had to care for my elderly dog with her medication and mobility issues. I have also been pet sitting for my families who are in need of assistance with special needs animals. I am available 7 days a week anytime during the day. I am also available nights and weekends as well. So if you need to go out of town for an overnight I have plenty experience in house sitting as well. I always make sure that they have a proper sleep schedule and also make sure their day is full of activities and excitement so they don’t miss a beat when they are back in the arms of their wonderful owner.
About: On a personal level, I have cared for and been family with dogs my entire life. As I got older, I found my current dog who has transformed my love and respect for dogs into something indescribable. After rescuing her at 3 months old, I have trained and raised her into a beautiful and fully-realized working-line dog. I have experience in advanced training of dogs that ranges from day-to-day obedience to scent imprinting and mind puzzles for high-drive/working breeds that require the mental stimulation. Regardless of your dog's personal needs, I will ensure that those needs are met and addressed in a fulfilling and rewarding way that will leave them feeling loved and satisfied. Depending on the week, you can expect to see me available up to five times in a week! I will do weekends and holidays without question. Every pet has their own specific and individualized needs. This knowledge will help me determine what is needed for your pet, such as longer/fast-paced walks to exercise a high-drive breed or a leisurely stroll for the beloved seniors. Drop-Ins will entail evaluating your pet's needs and addressing them accurately and satisfactorily.
“Sophia was great with my dog. He loves being out and gathering smells (he’s a hound). She took him on a long walk to his favorite smelling spots and wore him out which was great since I had to leave him home alone for an extended period that day. I highly recommend her and will use her again.”
“Emilyann seems to be taking very good care of my boy, Jake. She arrives on time and lets me know when she gets there and how he is responding to her. He seems to like her very much! At this time I do not need regular visits; however, I shall definitely call her again as soon as I need a dog walker/sitter again.”
“Madi was so great with our dog! She came over 2 days prior to the walk for 10 minutes to meet our girl. I was glad to meet her first because #firsttimeRoverUser. Fears allayed. And my pup loved Madi. The walk today went well and I loved the feedback and pictures. Madi was awesome! Thank you!”
About: I think that animals make the world a better place. I’m committed to giving them wonderful care and and a friendly, warm embrace every time! I am currently retired and enjoy spending my free time spoiling my animals and others. Animals are better than humans. I take my dog for multiple walks a day. I go out of my way to ensure that the pets feel safe and comfortable in my presence. That’s what means the most to me.
“Robert was amazing with my dog, Teddy! He was reliable, kind, and made sure Teddy got plenty of exercise and attention. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos as it gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Teddy loved him, and I’d definitely book Robert again!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have fostered dogs. I currently have a dog and a cat and 4 kids. I’m also a middle school teacher so I’m calm in any situation;) y schedule is consistent and organized, which allows me to be dependable and punctual for visits. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, a walk, I make sure every pet receives reliable, loving care and is treated like one of my own. I care for pets in their own home by keeping their routine as normal as possible. I carefully follow feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. I also treat every client’s home with respect, keeping it clean, secure, and just as I found it
“Brijana is an excellent pet care taker. She's very loving and detail oriented. It's clear she has a passion for animals and their well-being. My dog, Dollie, loves her!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since 5 years ago helping friends and family when they needed help. I always had a connection with dogs and love to take care of them. I have a part-time job that gives me time to take care of pets weekdays and weekends mostly in the mornings. I can accommodate my schedule too. I make sure that all the necessities and schedules any dog has are completed before leaving, making sure the dog feels comfortable and safe are my top priorities.
About: I have two of my own cats and helped my sister raise a puppy during the pandemic. I also volunteer to walk rescue dogs with Doggie Style. Right now I am looking for work part time and am available mornings through evenings on weekends and after 3PM on weekdays except Tuesday and Wednesday. I have a bike so I can easily make it to different parts of the city! I unfortunately cannot house pets in my home but I am willing to travel and pet sit! We can probably work something out with scheduling.

Julia has been great with our dog Bumi. We were a little nervous because he hasn't walked with anyone outside the family in a couple of years (he refused to leave the house), but he has been going out with her. And she helps him get going if he's a little hesitant in the beginning. We get pictures and an update on how we did after every walk. We highly recommend Julia!
Greg was awesome with the dogs\! He was very flexible with our schedule, and the dogs absolutely loved him—especially Zion, who usually doesn’t like anyone\! 😂 That says a lot. Thank you, Greg, for being so patient, kind, and great with them. We really appreciate you

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Oaklyn. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
