Marlee is amazing! My dog was shy with her at first, but now, they're best buds. She is very caring and I know my dog has a lot of fun because he is always tired when I come home from work. If you need someone to love and care for your dog, she's the one to hire :)

She did a great job with Phoenix! He can be nervous around new people, so it meant a lot that he was comfortable and happy when I got home. Already booked again!

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs and cats, and now having two rescue dogs of my own, I just can't imagine life without them. I haven't used Rover before, but I've spent years watching friends' dogs and cats whenever they needed someone they could trust. I've raised puppies, cared for kittens, and even handled medications when needed, so I'm no stranger to what animals need to feel safe and loved. I come to your home so your babies can stay in their own space, in their own routine. Every animal is different and I take the time to get to know them. Big or small, they all get the same gentle, attentive care. I just genuinely love animals, and that's something you'll see the moment I meet your pet. I'm always happy to set up a meet-up before booking so we can connect, your pet can get comfortable with me, and we can make sure it feels like the right fit for everyone I recently graduated from Arcadia University with my Master's in Physician Assistant Studies. While I study for my boards and prepare to move back home to Washington, I have time on my hands and want to spend it doing something I truly enjoy. Right now my days are completely open, which means your dog gets my full attention. No rushing off, no squeezing them in between a busy schedule. I'm there as long as they need me. As the mom of two very needy rescue dogs, I completely understand wanting your babies to have someone around as much as possible, and right now, I'm in a position to give exactly that! Since I will be in your home, my first priority is to respect whatever routine and rules you have in place for your pet. I am happy to provide as much or as little entertainment, snuggles, or space as your fur baby needs. When it comes to walks, I'm no stranger to dogs that pull on the leash or get reactive around other dogs. I've handled strong, reactive animals before and I feel confident and calm managing them.

Macy did AMAZING with our pup!! Super sweet and kind! She sent us lots of photos and updates. Even sat outside with her while it was pouring rain, and brought in her food package for us when we weren’t home! We will definitely be using her again!

About: My personal experience has consisted of hands-on settings caring for dogs through pet sitting, volunteering at an animal shelter, and helping raise and train my own dog from puppyhood. At the shelter, I regularly cared for and walked both dogs and cats, gaining knowledge and experience with a variety of temperaments and energy levels. I’ve also sat alongside a professional trainer with my own dog, watching taught me how to set appropriate boundaries, understand behavior, and use patience and consistency. In addition to basic training, I’ve taught fun commands like “roll over” and “paw.” Overall, I’m confident handling dogs with different personalities and needs. I prioritize being both patient and attentive while maintaining structure and safety. Your pet will be treated like family! I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give your pet lots of attention, exercise, and care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure each pet feels comfortable and loved. I’ll also send regular updates so you never feel out of the loop. I love all animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I always make sure they are always in a safe, supervised, and stress free environment. I pay close attention to them, follow any instructions you may provide, and keep walks and visits secure while aLeo enjoyable. I also believe communication is key, so I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away.

As expected, Cassie was amazing. Even when Dante changed his mind and decided he did NOT want a visit & he'd rather be scary & overprotective, Cassie didn't bail on him, but rather talked him down and helped him calm down. She quite literally saved our weekend, and let us know every detail so that we can work on it going forward. We'll definitely be reaching out to her again!

Sarah came highly recommended from our old sitter who is leaving town. She is kind, patient, and genuinely caring. Our dog felt comfortable and happy right away, which gave us total peace of mind at meet and greet. Such a nice, trustworthy person—we’d absolutely book her again.

About: I have taken care of neighbors’ and grandparents’ dogs as well as my own. I love dogs more than most people and would do anything to protect them and keep them happy. As a college student away from my fur babies at home, this fits perfectly into my schedule. I have a lot of time on my hands until I start grad school this summer! I will just be taking the fur babies for walks as I am in an apartment that unfortunately does not allow pups. I will use safe paths or neighborhoods as well as any parks or fields that allow us!

About: What sets me apart is my positive energy, flexibility, and genuine love for animals. I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and have years of experience dog walking and pet sitting for friends and families, so caring for animals is second nature to me. I love getting to know each pet’s personality—whether that means keeping up with a playful puppy, sticking to a routine for a more laid-back dog, or giving extra patience and gentle attention to senior pets. I’m comfortable reinforcing basic training, following detailed care instructions, and making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to adapt to your pet’s unique needs. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just some extra cuddles, I’m always eager to help and treat every pet like my own! Pet care fits easily and consistently into my daily and weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits depending on client's needs. Once Summer starts, I will be available more often! I’m able to plan my day around walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, and playtime to make sure pets get reliable, timely care. I’m also good at adjusting my routine when needed, whether that means last-minute requests or extended care. Because I’ve grown up with pets and have experience pet sitting for friends and family, caring for animals is already a natural part of my life. I enjoy building it into my day and making sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are always my top priorities. In a client’s home, I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box maintenance, medications if needed, and any specific preferences. I’m very respectful of your home and keep things clean, safe, and just as you left them. I take time to build trust with each pet, paying attention to their body language and personality—whether they’re energetic, shy, or somewhere in between. I make sure they get the right balance of play, exercise, and relaxation, while always supervising for safety. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly space that’s calm and secure. I keep a close eye on pets, maintain consistent routines, and ensure they feel comfortable and stress-free. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10. I worked at a doggy daycare and an animal hospital for almost a year. I’m comfortable with all types of animals, including exotics, and can deal with all kinds of temperaments and medical needs. Currently I attend University of Delaware as a pre-veterinary medicine major. I am available 7 days and week and throughout the - I occasionally work at a dog boarding facility but shifts are usually no longer than 7 hours I am comfortable coming to other houses and doing overnight stays as well, which I have done before for clients. Unfortunately I cannot board at my house.
