“Mary Anna was so great! Not only is she a sweet person, she goes above and beyond for your animal. Jake loved her and so did we! We found our cat sitter. :)”
“Lauren was so wonderful to our kitties. They quickly warmed right up to here. She was easy to get in contact with leading up to, and throughout our time away, and she shared tons of pictures+videos. We’ll certainly book her again.”
“I recently had a family emergency which I had to travel for unexpectedly, leaving my cat behind. Katlyn was wonderful with Linus! She sent me many photos and videos that put my mind at ease knowing she was being cared for in my absence. Katlyn was very communicative and I was really grateful for her check ins! Would HIGHLY recommend!”
About: I have two babies of my own, Simon (Cat) and Frankie Valli (dog). I love them with all my heart! I have lifetime experience taking care of cats and have been a dog mom for five. I’ve provided house sitting, pet sitting, and check-ins for many of my friends over the years. I have experience with the most easy going, cuddly babies to the not so friendly but still open love (on their terms) ones. I love going on walks with my Frank and I have experience giving medication and I am a pro at deep-cleaning litter boxes. I currently have a full-time job (9-5, Monday-Friday) but I am open to play with your pets on the weekends, and weekday evenings. I am open to holidays. Frankie Valli and I take frequent walks around the neighborhood, he has his own bed and space. Simon is the king of the castle, he has plenty of space to play and stretch his legs.My top priority is making sure my two boys are safe and they live in a stress-free home. I will always prioritize safety, trust, and a stress-free environment in every home I care for. Whether I’m watching pets in my client’s home or stopping by for check-ins, I follow their routine closely to keep things familiar and comforting.
About: I’ve had dogs all my life, mostly large/giant breeds, but love dogs of all sizes! I’ve volunteered and fostered for ACCT Philly as well as other rescue based organizations. I’ve had cats for the last ten years. I have experience giving medications. I currently have 1 dog and 3 cats of my own, all with different personalities! I currently work full-time as a special education teacher. I’m available for care early morning or late afternoon/evenings. I am free most weekends for pet care. I will take care of your fur babies given any instructions provided. I enjoy spending time with animals and will care for yours as if they were my own. I will send picture updates and any other information as requested.
“Caroline was great! She was able to accommodate my last minute request and took great care of my fur baby. She sent me daily updates along with pictures and was good with administering my cats medication. I would definitely use her again.”
About: I grew up with dogs. My dad trained dogs professionally. I've always had animals in my home. Lover of all breeds and eager to provide care for any animal. I work during the week, so I can be available during nights on weekdays. Weekends I can be available any time even for multiple visits. I am dedicated to providing structure and attention for any animal I would be caring for. I think that every walk can provide training opportunities and every interaction can deepen the trust and respect between human and animal.
“I hired Darby to house sit for us and now ask him to come and check on our animals from time to time when we are busy with work. He is always so kind and responsive and sends the best updates!!”
“Erica did a great job! The cats were happy and healthy when we got back home from our trip. Erica was also very communicative and helpful during our trip and made us feel comfortable about leaving the girls on their own.”
“Jasmine is amazing with the cats and the baby kittens! Gave them great care and play time and sent us tons of videos and photos :) she’s the best!!”
About: I am a lifelong animal lover, and am committed to helping your buddy feel comfortable and safe!

I currently primarily provide in-house (/overnight) sitting services in client's homes, and do so in and around the Greater Philadelphia area. I am happy to chat about or build a schedule with you for drop-ins or walks, but for these services will prioritize clients near South Philly. When I provide pet-sitting in your home, I want to help minimize disruption to your pet's schedule and routines. I want to work with you to lean about house rules, schedule intricacies, and your pet's preferences! I love to provide plenty of updates and photos so you know your buddy is having a good time!
About: I grew up with an English Bulldog, so I’m well versed with stubborn dogs. I have dog sat for multiple types of dogs such as golden retrievers, pitbulls mixes, rescue’s, etc. I currently work part time in the mornings, so I’m able to available every day after 3:30pm! I enjoy walking around my neighborhood and adding a couple furry friends to those walks sounds amazing! I will safely walk and monitor your dog while walking and make sure that they won’t step/sniff or eat anything harmful to them. I’m very comfortable walking dogs on leash and the dogs safety and well-being are top priority for me.
About: I’ve been the go to friend for pet care (dogs and cats) and fostered two cats. Experience with skittish dogs and diabetic and toothless cats. I work from home, so I’m available during most office hours and evenings. I like exploring the local parks and can accommodate long walks, as needed. I approach each pet with kindness and love. My typical routine is greetings, pets, some playtime, food, cleaning (litter box or designed area), and more pets/ playtime.

Rachel B.

Caroline B.

Daniel F.
“I cannot recommend Dan highly enough! He recently cared for my two cats while I was away, and the experience was beyond exceptional. As any cat parent knows, trusting someone new with your fur babies can be nerve-wracking—but from our first interaction, Dan put me completely at ease. Before the booking even started, Dan took the time to understand my cats’ personalities, quirks, routines, and needs. One of my cats is shy and reserved, while the other is more social and demanding of attention, and Dan navigated both of their temperaments with patience, compassion, and an obvious understanding of cat behavior. I was blown away when I saw that even my shy cat—who typically hides from new people—was relaxed and visible during his visits. That alone says a lot. Throughout my time away, Dan sent thorough updates with photos and notes that not only kept me informed but brought me peace of mind. I could tell my cats weren’t just being fed and checked in on—they were truly being cared for. He gave them plenty of attention, played with them, kept their food and water areas clean, and made sure the litter box was spotless. When I came home, everything was in perfect shape, and my cats seemed calm and content—as if they’d been on their own little vacation. Dan also went above and beyond in little ways that meant a lot—making sure everything was locked up securely, noticing and responding to the smallest shifts in the cats’ behavior, and treating my home with total respect. It’s rare to find someone so reliable, communicative, and genuinely loving toward animals. Dan truly treated my cats like his own. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets with care, attentiveness, and real affection, book Dan without hesitation. I will absolutely be booking him again, and I hope more people get to experience the peace of mind he brings. He’s a gem, and I feel lucky to have found him.”

Heather L.
“Heather is an incredible dog sitter! I trust her wholeheartedly with my pups. She is thorough, patient with the pups, excellent at reading their signals, and highly communicative with us! We would have no other dog sitter in our life…recommend 10/10!”
Lillie R.
“Lillie has watched our senior cat throughout the past few years, and has always been such a reliable and caring sitter. She is great with our cat, and always makes time to sit and play, pet, or hang with her as our cat requires! I absolutely trust Lillie with our pet, and in our home, and highly recommend her to others as well.”
Alexa J.
“Alexa loves on Penelope like they've been best friends for a lifetime. Penny gets lonesome-sickness pretty easily but if Alexa is visiting she seems much less stressed when we return. Also, Alexa was perfectly comfortable when Penelope needed medication for few visits in a row and Penny. She's always the first person I ask if I know we're traveling.”
