Dog Walking In Poplar-Ludlow-Yorktowne

“Rebecca was excellent. She communicated well, was friendly and enthusiastic, and handled a new situation with ease. She took the time to do an extra meet and greet to connect with my dog and me and understand all of our needs. She was composed with my eager pup who can be a handful when excited to meet new people. She handled a situation gracefully with my poor communication. Rebecca is clearly a dog lover who will channel that energy into her work. I would highly recommend Rebecca for your pet care needs.”

“Mason was absolutely wonderful! He walked our dog with such care and reliability — showed up right on time, sent updates along the way, and brought our pup back happy and tired. Even though it was just a one-time walk, you could tell he genuinely loves dogs. Would book again without hesitation and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy walker!”

“Jasmin is an outstanding caregiver for your pet, and a highly responsible service provider. Her communication and responses are very timely, and very thorough. She is clearly committed to ensuring the timing and logistics of handling your and your pet's needs are fully vetted. Our dog has taken to her like a long lost friend.”

“John has been great walking my 2 year dog Koda who is high drive dog with lots of excitement. John is also very knowledgeable about dogs and has been supportive of our training efforts. Koda is very lucky to have him as a walker.”

“This is my first time using a dog-walking service. I was extremely nervous. However, Areana ensured that I would be comfortable. Ms.Areana remained in constant communication, very professional, and seemed extremely nice. She completed all of my requests with no hesitation nor issues. Even after just one experience I would recommend her services. Looking forward to using her again in the near future. Note: I love how Areana sends photographs of the experience as well as a documentation of what occurred on the walk.”

About: I have worked with all kinds of animals throughout my life, learning to train cats and dogs on my own. I’m also familiar with exotic pets such as pythons and bearded dragons. I can comfortably administer different kinds of medications to most animals, including oral liquids and pills, sub-Q and IM injections, and topicals. Currently I am available as a full-time pet sitter for house-stays and drop-ins. I often sit for multiple houses at once, doing house-stays for one client and drop-ins for 1-3 others depending on the services and times needed per client. When I meet an animal for the first time, my priority is gaining their trust. I spend time casually observing so I can take note of their personality and physical forms of communication, but I don’t get too close or move too quickly until I’ve given the animal a chance to take me in as well. Once trust is established, we can move on to wearing leashes and harness, medication routines, playing, etc.

“Both of my dogs warmed up to Christine right away! She is very sweet to them and keeps me updated during their walks. I would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

“Sabina was amazing with my Rosy while I went home for the holidays. She was very professional and communicative, and she went above and beyond in making sure Rosy's needs were met. Even when unexpected issues arose, she handled them promptly, kept me posted on every step, and gave me options on how to handle the situation. I never once doubted that Rosy was in great hands.”

“Ben was a great pick to take care of my pups. He was very responsive and enthusiastic . I unfortunately did not have enough food at the house and Ben offered to go out of his way and pick up some dog food. He went above and beyond ! Would highly recommend .”

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely care for pets like they’re my own. I’ve grown up around family pets and have experience helping care for them, along with dog walking and daily routines. I’m patient, reliable, and make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a playful walk or quiet time at home, I keep things calm, familiar, and homey so they feel at ease the whole time. I work from home Monday through Friday, which allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I also go on daily runs, and I’m happy to include pets that enjoy being active and going for walks. I have open availability and a spacious two-bedroom home where pets can comfortably roam and feel at ease during overnight stays. I care for pets by keeping them safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. In my home, I provide a clean, spacious space with cozy beds, toys, and plenty of attention so they feel at home. In a client’s home, I follow their usual schedule, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions, while making sure they get care, exercise, and companionship. My goal is always to keep pets relaxed, happy, and well cared for.

“Ayomide saved the day! Was ready and available on short notice. Professional, patient he followed directions and was able to complete the job. I will definitely use Ayomide again.”

“I highly recommend Paulina to anyone looking for a dependable walker or sitter. During our two years working with Paulina, she has proven herself to be a great fit for my nervous pup. She has been so considerate of my pup’s needs, such as slowing down after she resumed walking her after my pup recovered from injuring her hip. She also adjusted her walking pace and route to keep my pup safe depending on the weather and different neighborhoods we’ve lived in. When things have come up in the past, she has always notified me with plenty of time for me to adjust my plans. She has also been respectful of my home the times that she has stayed over to care for my pup and kitties. I’m sad she won’t be walking my pup on a weekly basis anymore after her recent move, but look forward to hearing from her as a friend in the future. It’s been so fun getting to know her these last two years. She’s a truly wonderful woman who is smart, caring, and dependable. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trustworthy walker and sitter.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats for years now, most of which have been around 10 years old or older all loved with extreme care. I am currently on summer break from college and am able to care for pets on most weekdays and some weekends depending on my availability. I have my own dog in the city and am very comfortable walking and taking care of her. I would care for your dog the same way you would both in and out of the home.

About: I grew up with multiple dogs and so have had experience since youth walking, feeding, and caring for them. In my adult life I have co-owned one dog for around 6 years and worked to house-train him and correct some behavior issues via positive reinforcement. I have also owned multiple cats over the past 16 years including raising one from kittenhood to adulthood. For the past 2.5 years I have been volunteering regularly with the in-house dogs at the PAWS (Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society) Gray's Ferry clinic. My responsibilities include giving the dogs ample enrichment time outside by playing with them and positively reinforcing good behaviors, as well as feeding and cleaning up after them. I have worked there with all different dog sizes and age ranges, including puppies and seniors. I am available for check-ins mornings, mid afternoon, and evenings as well as overnight care as needed. I am not currently available for boarding dogs at my home. I currently do not own any dogs but I do own one high-anxiety cat whose behavior is being managed well with daily medications mixed in with his food. I'm very patient with both cats and dogs and am always ready to give them plenty of space to approach me and begin to feel comfortable with me in their own time. I am comfortable caring for dogs via feeding, walks, playtime, and medicating as needed. For cats I can provide feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime or just hanging out, and medicating as necessary. I have experience pilling cats if the cat's personality allows for this.

“Ari is such a lifesaver, life events that don’t allow for pet travel occur without warning and Ari took the best care of my puppy with out hesitation wheni was called away on duty. She is prompt, communicative absolutely the overall best!!”
