“Jasmine did a great job at feeding, playing with and babysitting my shepherd/husky mix. She was very clear with communicating updates. I will definitely reach out to her again for future dog sitting services.”

“Anisha let me book last minute and did a meet and greet as well. She arrived on time every day and took care of Bella very well. I would definitely book again. She is awesome :)”

About: I’ve grown up with large dogs since I was a little girl... now that I've moved away from home, I miss my animals! Throughout my college years, I provided dog walking services to the main line, and I would love to provide care to your furry friends! I’m currently working full time, but I work from home Mondays and Fridays. I also am available on the weekends and after 6pm on Tuesday and Thursday. I am very detail protected and mindful of instructions, every fur baby is different! I am also very active so I would love to take your dog on walks, as well as hanging around if they are lazy!
“Ariana and Andrew were so helpful! They took on our holiday booking need the week of our trip out of town which was so appreciated! Thanks again both!”

“Mitch is the best! He’s extremely helpful and communicative, even despite our pets getting sick and having the power go out, Mitch offered to head over to our home and check in on them to make sure everything was okay. I felt really comfortable and grateful for all his support during my time away”

About: I have experience with cats, dogs, rabbits and other small rodents, and some reptiles :) I grew up in a pet-oriented family and have been raised alongside animals all of my life! Although I specialize in cat care, I’m well-versed with animals of all kinds - different species, sizes, temperaments, personalities, and ages. I petsit all the time for my friends and family and love doing so, and I work/have worked in residential buildings where I have experience in interacting with/taking care of other people’s animals, especially cats and dogs. I’m always happy to make sure animals are comfortable, happy, and well taken care of. I’m also experienced with delivering medication, which my own fur baby needs daily. I am a PhD student that teaches twice a week. Otherwise, my schedule is pretty flexible :) Specific Availability: Tuesdays and Thursdays: After 2pm Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays: Available Anytime! I have a go-bag of treats and toys to offer when I do check-ins at your home! I’m also very careful to follow instructions for pet care, as I know each animal has its own needs and routines.
“My cat Mochi was so well cared for by Hanna while I was away! I got daily updates and photos that reassured me he was in good hands. Hanna is very responsive and easy to work with. Highly recommend booking with her!”

About: I have a lot of experience and passion for taking care of animals. What makes me special as a sitter is my deep understanding and strong connection with animals, which I've developed through many years of hands-on work. I have some special skills too, such as training puppies and providing care for older animals. I love teaching puppies how to behave well and do new tricks. When it comes to older animals, I know how to make sure they are comfortable and happy during their golden years. I'm dedicated, knowledgeable, and I genuinely care about animals, always striving to give them the best care and create a nurturing environment for them to thrive in. I work through out the week part-time. But always available to make time for pups. On my free time I'm normally at home or in the neighborhood walking at near by parks. I think animals deserve the same respect as humans. So giving the dogs attention and making sure I keep a close eye on body language so that I can give the dog the best care possible. Also making sure that the owner's request are being followed as dogs are part of peoples family.
“So thankful for Destiny & Ethan to check in our cat when we were away. They were great at updating us and sending lots of pictures! We also had an emergency that required them to let our dog out as well and they were extremely accommodating.”

“Ayo was amazing! I needed a sitter on short notice and he was available and flexible. He was very communicative and kept me updated everyday with pictures and videos of my cat. He took really great care of her from feeding to play! I would definitely recommend and would happily rebook in the future. Thanks, Ayo!”

“Oliver was absolutely amazing. I actually ended up hiring him to do some training with my dog and he handled it like a professional. My dog is nervous around new people and can be reactive so I was looking for someone who would be patient, confident, willing to respect my dog's boundaries. Oliver was all of the above. It can be hard to find people who are good with dogs that dont fit that happy go lucky standard dog mold so I was very impressed with him and feel comfortable hiring him for other assistance in the future. Thanks so everything Oliver!”

“Went above and beyond taking care of my boys while we were away for a few days. This is Arean’s second time caring for them! She’s very caring and precise with her work.”

“Kimberly has been so great with Nikolai. He talks to her more than he does to me. And he seems as contented in her lap as he is on mine. And I love the pics and videos shes sends.”

“My kitties were SO happy when I came home from a visit after booking Cliff. He did a great job and made sure they were relaxed while I was gone. Thanks!”

“Reno is the perfect dog sitter! I was a little apprehensive about leaving Tucker alone his first time, for an overnight trip, but Reno came out to meet us beforehand. He and Tucker really hit it off. Reno is incredibly dependable, punctual and responsive. I highly recommend Reno and will call on him again if Tucker and I cant travel together. Thank you Reno.”

“Alex gave me such peace of mind on my 3-day trip out of town. She carried out my instructions to the letter. She proactively asked questions. Best of all, she showered my 3 cats with love and affection. I highly recommend Alex as a kind, quick-study, very reliable pet sitter. I look forward to hiring Alex again.”

About: I am a beloved dog dad to two precious goldens as well as two rescue cats. Animals have been a passion of mine ever since I was a child as I grew up with dogs, cats, bunnies, hampsters, snakes, bearded dragons, fish; all kinds to say the least. I treat every animal that has ever been part of my family as if they were my own children and I would do the exact same for your loved ones and give them the love and attention they deserve! I am currently working full-time as an architect and have flexible hours in the evenings/nights mostly anytime after 5:30pm on Tuesdays- Thursdays. On Mondays and Fridays I am free mostly any time. Weekends I am mostly available with the exceptions of Sunday afternoons. I have two loving and sweet golden retrievers who love to play and a large crate. I currently live in a two-bedroom apartment in Fishtown Philadelphia. Coming to your household to tend/care for your pets is also preferable.
“Brianna is our go to for our senior cat. Over the past year our little girl has grown to love her and looks forward to her visits when we are away. I highly recommend Brianna.”
