We had a great time meeting Greg for our first meet and greet/walk. He even made Pinto feel at ease - and that’s a tough sell. We are looking forward to booking future walks and pet sitting with Greg.

We use Rover when we travel. Knowing we would be at Disney World I wanted one sitter for 3 times a day for all 6 days. I was able to communicate with Pam before I even left California. Was able to get all the days set up in advance and a commitment to all of the days. The day we arrived at Fort Wilderness Pam came over for a meet and greet. She as just lovely. During the time she sat for us we changed times of walks and needed additional help. She stepped up to all changes in such a helpful way. She was instrumental in our vacation being a success!!

About: I grew up having an energetic beagle so I’m used to matching a dog’s high energy level. I now usually dog/housesit for family friends and volunteer to walk the dogs from Doggiestyles pet store. Just graduated from Drexel University so I have a lot of time throughout the summer, especially during day hours. Very flexible to match client’s schedule I usually follow the requests of the client and will check in the dogs every now and then to make sure they’re okay. I would check to make sure they’re not doing anything they’re not supposed to, but also keep them entertained if they seem bored

About: Growing up on my family farm, surrounded by the sights, sounds, and joys of animals, I discovered a deep passion caring for animals has only grown stronger with time. Caring for our pets and animals throughout their lifespan such as dogs, cats, cows, horses (and more!) I've learned the value of compassion, patience, and dedication. I currently split my time as a part-time student with part-time work and therefore, have a very flexible schedule. I can cater to your schedule and specific needs! I have a golden retriever who enjoys a lot of time outdoors, ample play time, and long walks along the Delaware river. We also have a spacious apartment big enough for him to run and roll around in, or relax for a quick nap on the couch with the warmth of the sun on his face. No matter what your pet enjoys, we are happy to share our home with them, ensuring they get the fun they need throughout every day with us.

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.

About: Not only have I lived with dogs my entire life, but I have also been taking care of and walking dogs since my early teenage years. Over the years, I have been responsible for both senior dogs and puppies. Not only do I have experience with different ages, but also with different breeds. During the week I typically work from 8-4 but can often adjust my hours slightly if necessary. I would be happy to spend time taking care of your pet before or after work as well as on the weekend. When I care for pets, I am very attentive to their needs and prioritize spending as much time with them as possible. I am also able to match the exercise level needs for different pets. I love to exercise and get outside, so I will always be excited to get them the movement that they need.

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.

About: I fell in love with animals as a kid & that love has carried into adulthood where I am now the proud parent of a cat & a dog. I understand how much our pets mean to us as owners, so I aim to provide the best care possible. I currently work from home full time, so I have many breaks during my day in which I am able to take dogs out, check in on a cat, etc. I walk my dog a minimum of three times a day & would be happy to scoop up a friend on the way. My dog is super friendly and loves to meet new pups.

About: I have grown up with a cat, lived in several residences where cats had kittens also. I have experienced with the adults and also puppy’s and kittens. Open availability for house sitting and dog walking whenever the client needs. I can walk, cycle, or uber to the location if need be and can be reached at all reasonable times. I have had my rescue dog for 3 years now and when I got him he was skinny (could see rib bones), living in a cage of his own waste, and full of fleas. I took him home and he has been with me ever since and is thriving. Before the dog an owned a snake and before that a cat and her kittens.

About: Through veterinary assisting and even working for major pet insurance companies, I've learned so much about how important caring for your pets can be. I would always treat any pet as if they were my own. Extremely flexible schedule; please let me know if you have any questions regarding scheduling. Feel free to message me at any time. I also can be available early mornings. I would follow any rules set by the Pet Parent/Parents while within their home. Examples include, administering medication on time, set feeding schedules and set play times.
