Mike was great with my dog and very easy to coordinate with over the weekend. My dog actually seemed happy when I picked her up, unlike how she acts after time at a kennel. I would definitely use Mike again!

Leaving our dog, Mazie with Sandee gives us total peace of mind. She is incredibly reliable and communicative, sending us multiple updates and photos daily. It is comforting to see how happy and relaxed Mazie is in her care. We always return to a happy, healthy dog and feel completely confident that everything is taken care of. We're very grateful that we have found her and highly recommend her to anyone who needs a trustworthy and experienced sitter.

About: I have experience with breeds extra small to extra large as we owned a jack Russell, chocolate lab, golden retriever, and mastiff/cane Corso mix at the same time. Currently, we have a 6 year old American bulldog named rosie who loves lounging and eating my daughter's toys. I'm a recently retired teacher with a ton of free time on my hands and a desire to have a more active lifestyle. I live in west Conshohocken and have no commitments outside of elementary school drop off/pick up. I would prefer to care for your pet in your home as I have a kindergarten aged child but will consider housing a pet for a short stay. We have a fencrd in grassy yard and 2 enclosed deck/concrete areas. I will provide background clearances from the state police, FBI, and Childline.

Kelly was amazing!! She took Reyna last minute when we went to the beach. Her backyard was very spacious and dogs were very friendly. Reyna had a great time having playmates. We will def come back and I will recommend her services to any of my friends visiting town of Rehoboth/Dewey Beach.

Finley had a great time at Robert and Susan’s! There were plenty of other dogs Finley’s size for her to play with, as well as a large backyard to get all of her energy out! Would certainly have Finley stay with them again.

All I can say is A++, Brody was very well taken care of, Diana and her hubby were so welcoming when we dropped Brody off, she does slow introductions with her own dogs and Brody had friends to play with. Diana's home is extremely clean and well maintained and had no issues leaving Brody in her care. She sent us pictures and even a short video or two, made our trip to DC stress free knowing he was in good hands, Brody came home happy and as playful as ever so I know he was treated kindly and with love. As a pet owner you can tell your pets body language and he was as happy as when we dropped him off for his puppy staycation! Diana is very friendly and communicates quickly. We were running late to drop him off and she was very accommodating, can recommend her enough, her price per night can't be beat for the awesome care your furry baby will enjoy! It is well worth the ride to her home even if it's a little out of the way, take the drive and book with her! We will always see if she's available in the future, A+ all the way!!!

About: I am a proud pup and kitty parent. I have been taking care of pets professionally sine 2005. I provide daily dog walking, doggie boarding and kitty pet sitting services in the Milton area. Fabulous references to attest to my quality care. Contact me for a free consult. I look forward to adding you to the Animal Lovers family! I accept dogs that are friendly to all dogs and humans. No aggressive behaviors. I also can only accept potty trained dogs. I can administer medications and only work outside the home part-time so can easily provide potty breaks and walks every 4 hours. My dog Benny is very friendly and loves doggie company! I am available for daily dog walking Monday thru Friday and petsitting 7 days per week. I am available for boarding as schedule permits as I only take 1 dog, dog family, at a time. I have a home in Milton with a 6 foot privacy fence. I have 1 pup, a Yorkie poo who is used to welcoming fun pup friends. I am never out of my home more than 4 hours when I have pup boarders. Your pup(s) is my priority and treated like a member of my family.

We’re new to the area and needed a dog sitter for our pup, Piper—and I’m so glad we found Michelle! She was super friendly right from the first message and offered to do a meet and greet, which immediately put us at ease. Piper took to her right away! During her stay, Piper had an absolute blast. Michelle went above and beyond—she even took Piper on her boat (with my ok, of course!), made her homemade treats (always double-checking ingredients with me first), and ended the stay with a fun little crabbing adventure and a relaxing bath. For a New York dog, this trip was full of firsts! It’s such a relief to find someone I can fully trust with my girl. I’ve already booked Michelle for our next vacation. 5 stars all the way! Highly recommend!

About: I have always loved having and caring for animals since I was a child. I have owned and cared for many dogs, cats and other small pets in my home my entire life, and I am a very responsible person. I have also been a pet sitter for family and friends whenever they needed care for their pets. I was a Nanny and cared for small children in their homes for many years and also any pets that were in their homes as well. I will treat your pets with love and respect and also care for them as you would want them to be cared for. I will be devoted to caring for your fur babies in your home or as needed. Thank you for considering me as your pet care sitter. Rover is my full-time job, so I will be able to provide longer care times for your pets. I am a very reliable and caring person, and will love and care for your fur babies like they are my own. I provide the best care possible in your home or mine, and I will follow all of the instructions that you have for your pet in a loving and caring way.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for approximately 5 years, gaining a strong understanding of their needs, routines, and care requirements. While I don’t have formal professional pet care experience, I am highly responsible, organized, and detail oriented. As a 4th year med student, I’m used to managing my time effectively and staying on top of responsibilities, which makes me an excellent caregiver for your dog. I’m committed to ensuring your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness. I’ve completed my 4th year rotations, so I have a lot of flexibility for pet sitting, walks, and drop in visits! I’m available on weekdays and weekends and can accommodate your pup’s schedule. Whether it’s for a quick check in, a walk, or full day care, I’m happy to provide personalized care. I live near a dog park, which is great for walks and giving your pup an active experience. I provide a comfortable and safe space for your dog to relax and have fun. I’m committed to offering dependable, safe care for your dog whether it’s a walk, sitting, or drop in.

About: My skills include loving treatment, responsibility and efficiency. I love pets and take care of them just like the children I take care for, with love. I’m babysitting 3 hours a day from Monday to Friday for a 5 year old girl and then I’m free to take care of pets. I’m willing to sleep at my client's house to take care of her/his pet. All my life I have loved and had contact with animals but in the last 4 years this has intensified. I treat animals the same way and with the same love as I treat a person. My pets are like my children.

Christine took wonderful care of Taake for a second time today! She’s such a dog lover, easy to communicate with (including sending a great video of Taake), and has such a welcoming home. We were so grateful Taake had a chance to rest and enjoy time with Christine today. Looking forward to next time!

Mae Ann and Meg gave us a worry- ree holiday. They provided excellent care, responsive feedback and a daily photo to ensure Sam’s care. Their 3 York use were wonderful company and Sam felt right at home. Their home centers around the pets they board and they really love what they do. Sam even came home bathed with clean bedding! I highly recommend this boarding home, very near Wildwood if you are looking for a reliable home while you visit this part of the Jersey Shore. Susan Pivko August 25, 2025
