Pet Sitting Seaside Park

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, including my family’s 11-year-old pup who is the absolute joy of my life. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and ages—from energetic Black Lab puppies to senior Yorkies, including administering daily medications to older dogs. As a speech therapist, I pay close attention to nonverbal communication, which helps me quickly read your dog's body language, mood, and needs. I’m punctual, reliable, and dedicated to giving your pup the same loving care I give my own. I'm available for evening walks and visits after my workday as a full time speech therapist. Whether you have late dinner plans, work late, or just need someone to handle the evening feeding and bedtime routine, I’m here to give your dog extra attention when your schedule gets busy! When caring for pets at a client's house, safety, routine, and security are my top priorities. I strictly follow your dog's established routine—from feeding and medication schedules to playtime and potty breaks—to keep them comfortable in their familiar environment. Before letting your dog out into a yard, I always check that gates are securely latched and fences are clear. On neighborhood walks, I double-check collar and harness fits and always err on the side of caution—keeping a respectful distance from other dogs.

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and the experience I've gained caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I volunteered with ACCT Philly Animal Shelter, where I helped care for both dogs and cats with a wide range of temperaments and needs. That experience taught me how to be patient, attentive, and adaptable, whether working with energetic puppies, shy rescue dogs, or senior pets that need a little extra care and compassion. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my family always had multiple pets, and I was known as the one who spent the most time caring for them. Whether it was feeding, walking, playing, or simply making sure they felt safe and loved, I naturally took on that role because I truly enjoy being around animals. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience because they're a puppy or senior, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family. Pet care isn't something I fit into my routine—it's a part of my everyday life. I truly believe that when you choose to have pets, you make the time for them. The people closest to me joke that I'm a bit of a "helicopter mom" with my animals, but I think that's exactly why we have such a strong bond. I love going above and beyond to make sure my pets are happy, healthy, and enriched. On nice days, I bring my cats out onto our secure porch so they can safely enjoy fresh air and sunshine. I hide treats around the house to create little "brain games" that keep them mentally stimulated, stay on top of their grooming and hygiene, and make sure each of my pets gets one-on-one attention every day. I think it's important that every animal feels loved as an individual, not just as part of the group. That same level of care is what I bring to every pet I look after. Whether it's sticking to their normal routine, making time for extra play, or simply giving them companionship while you're away, I'll care for them with the same dedication I give my own. I believe the best pet care starts with understanding both the pet's needs and the owner's expectations. I'm also a strong advocate for respecting boundaries—both yours and your pet's. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your furry family member can feel nerve-racking. My goal is to make that experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whether you prefer frequent updates, lots of photos, detailed visit summaries, or specific instructions on how you'd like your pet cared for, I'm happy to accommodate your preferences.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 10 years and truly treat every pet like my own. My experience includes daily care, feeding routines, walks, and lots of love and attention.

About: experienced, reliable, and genuinely dog-obsessed sitter who treats every pup like family. Whether your dog is a high-energy zoomie professional, a couch potato connoisseur, or a “needs three belly rubs before bedtime” type, I’ve got them covered. My schedule allows me to provide consistent care throughout the week. I work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, but I have a very flexible job that allows me to leave during the day for potty breaks, walks, or check-ins as long as the location isn’t too far away. This means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and I can easily accommodate midday care to keep them comfortable and on their normal routine. I have had dogs and cats my own. So I am very comfortable with creating. I do not have a gated fence but I live in a nice town where there are sidewalks for long walks.

About: I've volunteered with an animal rescue for 8 years. I know how to administer oral medicine, handle feral or very anxious furbabies, I'm fearless and very lovable with them. Animals are the humans most wonderful friends. I know basic dog training as well. I have open availability at this moment in time unless I have planned events. Im a stay at home Mom and we all love furry friends in this home If you have a certain routine or schedule with your babies I'll do my absolute best to follow in your foot steps for them. ❤️

“Curt was easy to work with. I have a big dog that I trusted Curt with and a sometimes difficult reactive dog. It is hard to find someone who is patient with my difficult dog so it was nice to be able to get away for the night and know my dogs were safe!!!”

Tara M.

“Emily was fantastic! She was wonderfully communicative throughout the entire process from when we first contacted her for a meet and greet, all the way til the last visit ended. She not only read all our lengthy instructions and brutally honest descriptions of all 3 of our pups, but retained all the info on them, as well. Our pups loved her sweet demeanor, and the attention she gave each of them. She was super punctual and trustworthy. Will definitely be using her again while she's available and not at school!”

Duy N.

“Donna is great! Super reliable and great with our pup!”

Brendan B.

“Teagan was so great with our XL pup. She came multiple times a day to take care of/ play with him and sent lots of pictures. This was our first time using Rover and we would book her again in a heartbeat! Very reassuring to know that someone can take such good care of your pet when you aren’t able to bring them along.”

David O.

“Layla had a great time with Lisa. She is very caring and clearly loves animals. We would definitely ask her back to care for Layla!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life and always have been around dogs. I started off with watching friends pets when they traveled. Then our family dog recently passed away and thought this would be a great idea to have dogs around again . I currently work part time from home and work 1 afternoon a week for 3 hours , and my husband is home during that time. I have a very large fenced in yard to keep your pets safe. They can be crated if wanted and have a room downstairs by my back door if there is any need for separation from other dogs. I also only take a small amount of dogs that way they can get as much attention as possible. My kids love helping take care of the pets and it makes it a fun loving environment for your animals!

“Meagan is extremely professional and treats our Eli perfect every time! So happy we found her to help us out while we’re at work! Highly recommend.”
