Top rated Philadelphia doggy day care sitters
“Amanda is an amazing pet sitter who really showed dedication and care to making sure my puppy Willow was comfortable, and keeping up with her training. I would highly recommend her!”
“Georgilin and her husband have been a godsend! They are SO dependable. They genuinely love my dog as if she's apart of their family. They're excited to see her coming and sad to see her going. My dog just loves them and is always so excited when she see's them. Everyone's dog should be able to have an experience just like the one they provide. IMO Georgilin and her husband are hands down the best sitters in the Philadelphia area.”
“Teresa was wonderful! She’s so attentive, communicative, and adored my Harvey! Would absolutely recommend her to anyone and will be booking with her again :)”
“Karen was wonderful with Bella - I can tell Bella had a great time with her and came home happy and tired :) Karen was very prompt with communication and kept me in the loop. I would love to work with her again! Thank you!”
“I have one of those dogs that can open doors, turn on the radio and open her crate. She’s just so independent and intelligent that most sitters are not up for that kind of challenge. Kiara is not one who is easily overwhelmed by all that. She was amazing with both of my dogs while with the loss of a family member. Desi (GSD, cattle dog and pittie) and Biggie smalls (old English bulldog) are in love with her. She is responsible, prompt, compassionate, observant and most importantly loves dogs. I feel blessed to have her watch my kids. Every time I started to wonder how they were doing I got a video or a picture or just a message saying what they were up to.”
“Yelian was a perfect sitter! We had a last minute evening night out planned and she quickly responded, took great care of our special needs furry baby, and was outgoing, professional and accommodating.”
“Ester was phenomenal with my dog mazzy! Super attentive and sent me lots of photos and videos. She also made sure to follow all my instructions. Will definitely be using her again.”
“Rosie had a wonderful day with Kanade. She kept her busy with fun activities and let me know how she was doing all day with adorable videos and pictures! I will definitely use Kanade again soon! ❤️”
“Camilla was lovely with my little girl! She was very responsive and friendly, and Honey seemed to have a great time. She also sent very cute pictures of Honey and kept me up to date with her during her stay. Would definitely ask her to babysit for us again!”
“Travis is nice and easy-going and was great with my very young pup who needs second by second attention to keep him safe and engaged! My husband and I could tell that our pup had a great time! Travis will be our #1 sitter!”
“Deena was great with Chester and he had so much fun playing with her dog Athena and the other furry friends who were there. Chester will definitely be hanging out with Deena again!”
“We cannot recommend Bobby enough! He is an amazing communicator and great with Bacon. Always sending us day to day updates and taking Bacon on fun activities! Plus a great photographer :))”
“Highly recommend! Thank you so much for watching our pup on such short notice. Would recommend to anyone looking for a kind, caring pet sitter.”
“Hyann took such great care of our little fur baby! She was accommodating and patient with me and my hectic schedule. Would highly recommend her (and so would my dog)!”
“Jessica was wonderful! She clearly loves dogs and Moose immediately took to her. She walked and played with Moose and sent us some cute pictures. We also asked her to dog-sit day-of, and she was so accommodating of our schedule. Moose came back to us happy and tired!”
