“Caden did an amazing job during all the summer time with weekly walks with my Benny, reliable and trustworthy. Sometimes on my request, because of the rain he was willing to change the schedule time to avoid benny being outside during rainstorm. I highly recommend!”

About: What makes me different from others is pets love me and they are very comfortable around me. I never have any issues with any type of pet or animal. I have two amazing cats and I usually feed them early in the morning, play around with both of them until they get tired and sleepy, then it's cuddle time I personally wash my cats at home and i also take take them out for activities such as walking or having them play with different sticks and toys. I can accommodate your needs for your fur baby.

“If you’re deciding between sitters, go with Caris!! They have taken such good care of my skittish pup, spend quality time with her (giving treats, cuddling, and taking her on nice walks), and my pup warmed up to them more easily than any other person we’ve introduced her to. They are clearly knowledgeable about dog body language and took the time and patience to make my dog feel comfortable. I feel at ease when I know Caris is coming to take care of her, and we feel so grateful to have found such a gem of a sitter and walker.”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I cared for my own cat for 7 years and helped care for my fiancé’s family pets, including two cats and a dog. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s routine, whether it’s feeding, cleaning, playtime, or just keeping them company. I have a flexible schedule and can make time for pet care throughout the week. I’m available for drop-ins, feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, and making sure your pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep food, water, and litter areas clean, and pay attention to each pet’s behavior and needs. My goal is to make pets feel secure and loved while their owner is away.

About: Dogs have played a huge role in my life starting with my family dog, a chihuahua/dachshund mix who was by my side for 13 incredible years growing up. Over the years, I’ve also cared for my family and friends’ dogs, who brought me lots of joy and made me want to give back to the dogs in need in our community. That’s why I am also a trained volunteer with the Brandywine Valley SPCA (BVSPCA). At the shelter, I have undergone formal training on dog body language, how to take dogs on safe and enjoyable walks, and how to provide enrichment for dogs of all ages and sizes. Working remotely full-time gives me lots of schedule flexibility, allowing me to easily adapt to your dog's preferred routine for walks, feeding, playtime, or potty breaks. Whether your dog is an energetic puppy needing extra attention, a dog who loves meandering walks, or a calm companion looking for company, I tailor my approach to their individual personality and energy level. I am also fully experienced and comfortable administering any necessary daily medications hidden in food or treats. Your dog's safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priority! I appreciate notes on your dog’s typical routines and habits, as they help me keep their daily flow consistent and stress-free while you’re away. I make sure to provide clear, reliable communication along with detailed updates and photos so you always know how things are going. I would love to care for your pup with the same devotion and attentiveness I give every dog in my care. Feel free to send me a message with any questions or to schedule a meeting! I work remotely and am happy to adjust to you and your pet’s schedule. With the exception of some virtual meetings, my work is flexible and easy to adjust to your pet’s needs. I live in an apartment on the fifth floor, with an elevator. I’m happy to have pets on any furniture or in the bed. I currently have no other pets in the home. For walks, I like to take dogs along the quant and quiet row home - lined streets of Petworth.

About: I genuinely enjoy spending my time with animals and taking care of them. I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats including my own since I was in middle school so for over 10 years now. So naturally I’m familiar with daily walks and feeding schedules and making sure that the pets get the best possible care that they need. I’ve taken care of my friends and family friends cats and dogs including gerbils and many other small animals, making sure that they are fed and comfortable and well taken care of while their own were away and understanding their different needs. As of right now,I have 2 beautiful cats of my own who I cherish so much that I’ve been caring for over 3 years. I’m patient, reliable, and always focused on making sure pets feels safe, clean and well cared for Pet care is already a part of my daily routine since I care for my two cats every day. I’m used to maintaining feeding schedules, cleaning, and making sure they are comfortable and well cared for. I also have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to fit in visits, walks, or check-ins throughout the day. I enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets fits naturally into my weekly routine. have two cats of my own who freely roam in a safe and comfortable home environment. I make sure they are well fed, their litter boxes are clean, and that they feel relaxed and cared for every day. When caring for an owner’s pet, I always follow their specific instructions and routines closely. I understand that every pet is different, so I make sure to respect their preferences and keep them comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’ve pretty much always had a dog or cat in my life, so taking care of pets is something I genuinely love. I grew up with a German Shorthaired Pointer and a pit bull (and plenty of cats!), so I’m super comfortable with bigger dogs, high energy pups and pets with strong personalities. I’ve also cared for senior pets and am comfortable giving medications, keeping up with feeding schedules, adjusting walks for different energy and mobility levels, and following all the oddly specific little routines that pets inevitably train us into. I’m a big believer in keeping things as normal and comfortable as possible while you’re away, so I’ll stick to your pet’s routine, give them lots of attention and happily send you photos and updates along the way. Whether your pet wants a long walk, a serious game of tug of war or just someone to hang out with on the couch, I’m very happy to be their person while you’re gone (and hopefully their new favorite sitter!). Pet care fits really naturally into my routine! I work a 9–5 in communications for a nonprofit think tank, with a hybrid schedule that has me working from home on Mondays and Fridays. That gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime and check-ins throughout the day, especially around long weekends. I’m open to overnight stays, daily drop-ins, walks or a mix depending on what works best for you and your pet. I’m also happy to work around their usual routine as much as possible. I know pets tend to have their schedules figured out better than the rest of us! Since I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, my goal is to keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible for your pet! I’ll follow their normal routine closely, including feeding, walks, medications, playtime and, of course, plenty of attention and cuddles (if they’re into that!). I’m also very respectful of your home and will make sure everything is left just as I found it. Most importantly, I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and check-ins so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe and comfortable in their own space.

About: I've had dogs since I was about 14 years of age, from tiny terriers to large labradors. I've also been surrounded by some of the loveliest (and skittish!) cats, learning to love them like my own. I work only weekend nights, which is when my partner is available. Even then, I'm never more than a few minutes walk away from home in case of an emergency. Taking care of your fur baby is always top priority! I'm always home, and would never abandon a pet. I take my current dog everywhere I possibly can, and in the rare chance I have to leave, my dog is crated or isolated in a different room. We also have access to an enclosed patio.

Ella is amazing! She took on a last-minute walk for my pup and went above and beyond - put his raincoat on, dried him off after, and made sure he was settled before she left. She's so thoughtful and communicated clearly the whole time, sending cute photos and even a heads up on a slight bathroom issue. Highly recommend!
