“Oliver is a top-notch dog sitter! He absolutely exceeded our expectations when it came to the level of dedication he provided for our dog, Jaxson. Jax has special needs and requires some extra levels of care. Specifically, he requires oral medication and a specific routine. Oliver was committed to following Jaxson's care requirements and made sure we were confident that we were leaving him in good hands. Not only did he provide amazing care, but he also exceeded our expectations when it came to communication. He left a kind note welcoming us home and letting us know how Jaxson's day had gone. He also left the house in perfect, tidy condition. Oliver is kind, smart, prepared, dedicated, and everything you could possibly want in a dog sitter. 10/10, I would recommend him to anyone, anytime! Thank you, Oliver, for taking such good care of our buddy! We hope to see you soon!”


“Wow, Noa was an amazing sitter for our little guy, sharing very thorough and thoughtful updates! She is very personable, anticipated the needs of our little one, and went above & beyond to make sure he was okay and felt comfortable! We will definitely be asking Noa back to hang with our pup in the future!! ❤️”

“Allison was awesome with Kingsley as always. Very flexible and communicative, plenty of updates and pictures. I know my little dude loves it when she's here!”


“Quanece & Malik were available last minute when I needed someone to watch my dog for a few hours. They were responsive, followed all my directions, and sent updates throughout the day. I’ve booked with them a few times, and I would definitely do it again.”


“Areana was perfect! She sent us several thoughtful updates every day, and she took wonderful care of our dog, cat, and home. I would 100% book Areana again.”


“Dylan was great with our Dog Millie. He was responsive and willing to work with our schedule. Millie was happy and we received lots of pictures and updates while we were away. We would definitely use Dylan again and recommend him to our friends and family.”


“As always, Porsche was fantastic. She went above and beyond in helping us with Crumbcake as we had pictures taken and was very flexible with our changing plans. Porsche always makes Crumbcake comfortable and happy and we love having her help us with Crumbs.”



“Dana is AMAZING! He stayed with my 3 dogs, ages 12, 6 and 3 and he did such a fantastic job! Folks, look no further for someone you can trust with your fur family! I received pics at least once a day, and updates too! Dana is a kind, warm, and compassionate person, and you can tell those personality traits from every encounter with him - he is just perfect! On a scale of 1-5 stars, I give him 10 stars and I will not hesitate to ask for him to sit for me again. He stayed at my home for 9 days and I had such anxiety over leaving my dogs (they are all rescues) that I almost cancelled my trip - but boy oh boy I'm super glad that I didn't. If you are looking for a lovely, thoughtful and gentle soul to help you with your pets, look no further........”


“Maame was absolutely fantastic! She took wonderful care of my dog while I was away. She was attentive, kind and loving. I will absolutely be using her again. 10 stars!!”


“Amazing! Took excellent care of my pets. Came home to happy pets and a clean house! Pet toys were charged and put up. Using her again 2 more times in March.”


“Amber was amazing from our first messages to when we got back home. She took excellent care of our sweet dog, took him on at least two walks per day, played with him and provided lots of photos and updates every evening. Our house was in even better condition than we left it. Communication was easy and prompt. I want to take more short trips now that we have a trusted dog sitter. I highly recommend Amber.”


“Our dog doesn't particularly like strangers, but surprisingly warmed up to Jayson. He was also very respectful of the property. I fully recommend his care.”


“Tina is so amazing that we want to keep her all to ourselves! ♥️ But that seems unfair so here you go… 1. Tina is a joy in person. Such a lovely human and easy to talk to. 2. She’s so good with dogs that she was completely unfazed by our big wildly energetic lab. They were immediate best friends and ready for adventure. 3. It’s so hard to find someone who is wonderful with cats too and cat would seem to be Tina’s second language. We came home to a blissed out cat who was energetic, lovey, and even put on a little much needed weight. Tina pays very close attention to an individual pet’s needs and our old special needs kitty is totally in love with her. 4. Pictures! Updates! 🎉 We had a consistent and lovely view of happy pets. 5. We are now calling her the immaculate house guest. Everything, and I mean everything, was pristine when we returned. It looked like a huge team of cleaners had been through the house. What an especially wonderful way to come home. All of that said, do not book Tina! We want her all to ourselves. 😉♥️”


“Danielle was great! We were running out of cat food towards the end of the week and she ran out and got more. She sent pics of the dogs when we were away and they seemed to love her. She straightened up the house and all was good. We will definitely be using her again.”


About: I have grown up with large dogs, specifically Great Pyrenees, and cats since birth. This early experience gave me a great understanding of animal body language and I feel confident when forming relationships with new animals. In addition, I am comfortable with pets of all sizes (big pups welcome!) From brushing to administering medication, I am experienced in providing everything your pet needs to thrive. I am currently working full-time from home and would love to walk/check-in on your pet during my mid-day break! Additionally, I will be available in the mornings before 8am and after 4pm. I am available most weekends anytime of day. While I do not offer boarding in my home, I would be happy to care for your pet in yours. I prefer to learn the rhythms and routines that you have with your pet so that I can create the most comfortable and consistent experience possible.

“Y’all. YALL. I’m just saying… Sky is FANTASTIC. Soooo personable, friendly, actually took our dog on a walk, and it’s evident that she really cares. Our dog, William, warmed up to Sky SO fast. I hope everyone can book her but I also hope that y’all don’t take my Saturdays ?”


“Vanessa room great care of our three dogs and the house while we were away! She regularly sent photos and updates and was very communicative about any issues. We would absolutely work with her again and recommend her to others.”


“Katelyn was very nice sociable and very good with Coco Chanel. She sent updates with pics we didnt hsve to worry at all, which was such a relief, as not all sitters are attentive to our pet. We appreciate her help, and you will too!”


About: My sister Karen and I dog sit together, offering your pup double the care, love, and attention. We've both grown up with dogs and have cared for them since childhood, which gave us a strong foundation in understanding their needs and personalities. Over the years, I’ve expanded that experience by volunteering at animal shelters, working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments—from playful puppies to calm seniors. I work from home, so your dog will never be alone. Between the two of us, we make sure every pup in our care gets personalized attention, plenty of playtime, and a calm, comfortable environment. Whether it’s reinforcing training routines, daily walks, or just quiet companionship, we tailor our care to what your dog needs most. Your pet will be treated like family—because to us, they are. As a work-from-home sitter, your dog will have my attention and company all day long. Our neighborhood is surrounded by parks, including the wonderful Wissahickon Valley, so we'll enjoy lots of refreshing walks together to stay active. I offer pet care in my apartment which includes access to a large open yard and a designated dog park for exercise and recreation. Crate options are available for dogs that require or are accustomed to them.

“Ceara was absolutely wonderful. She took excellent care of my babies while we were out of town. This was the first time we used a sitter and we felt so comfortable knowing Ceara was with them. She was very good with them and my youngest pup can be very testy. Would definitely reach out to Ceara again.”

Anna F.
“Anna is a natural with dogs. Anna was my neighbor and frequently walked my dogs for me for about a year. I have a 4 year old 25-lb dog and a 2 year old 90-lb dog. The bigger dog is strong and rambunctious, lunges for rabbits or stray balls on walks, and is overly excited by young children, but she handled him well! The other one can be a bit timid at first. Anna was very patient with both dogs and continued to enforce the rules I asked, even of the little one (sit for pets, no jumping, sit for food, etc). She is also very communicative, and I could always count on her to come when she said she would. I've had a hard time finding a replacement for Anna. The dogs and I miss her!!”

Jimmy M.
“I’ve known Jimmy for many years—not just as a wonderful brother-in-law, but as someone with a truly kind and steady heart. He’s always had a natural connection with animals, treating them with the same patience, gentleness, and loyalty he shows to those around him. Jimmy is not only an animal lover, but also a brave and disciplined soldier—someone who takes responsibility seriously and follows through with care and commitment. Any pet in his care will feel safe, loved, and truly at home. I can’t think of anyone more trustworthy to look after animals.”
