“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. 😉♥️”


“Noa was a fantastic sitter for our Lily. She made sure to text us updates with pics showing our pup having as much of a good time as we were on vacation. She barely smiles in pics we try to take of her but her smile was beaming in the pics Noa sent 😁. And she was a terrific house sitter as well. We’ve already booked her again for a couple of weeks from now. We highly recommend Noa”


“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!”


“We are so lucky to have found Areana! She was excellent about communication with multiple check ins daily. We have a rambunctious menagerie of animals and she handled them like a pro. We are excited to work with her again!”


“Quanece was great with my 4 month old puppy, J’Rome! She’s patient and well experienced. She sent lots of updates and picture/videos throughout the day. I would highly recommend!”


“Christina was great! she arrived on time and confirmed prior. I have never had hired a sitter before to take care of my dog because he is a puppy and a little complicated sometimes, I was worried that someone wouldn’t be as patient with him but Christina did very good with him. She sent daily updates, pictures and videos. When I came back home everything looked great and my dog was very happy as well!! I would definitely recommend to anyone who is interested in a caring sitter who puts effort into taking care of your pup. Thank you!!”


“Christina was really responsible, kind and lovely with my pets. I had my first experience with this app through her and it couldn’t be better. She did much more than I expected. I really recommend her job.”


“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.”


“Danielle was amazing, Bandit and Fin loved her!! She sent photos daily without us asking and she left the house absolutely spotless after staying here for a few nights. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”



“We really enjoyed having Dana come stay with our dog Lucy. Dana kept us updated and made us feel at ease about everything, and Lucy and he did great together. We have already booked our next time for Dana to come back.”


“Barbara was so great to work with - leading up to our vacation, she was incredibly flexible to meet our dog and walk him several times. She even accommodated us when our travel plans changed last minute. My dog loved her and she followed his routine to a T. She’s incredibly kind, responsive, and very obviously a dog mom herself. We’ll always look to rebook with her again if we’re able to in the future!”


“Christina was a great fit for our two senior dogs. Both are reactive and have leash anxiety, so having someone calm and comfortable with energetic dogs was essential. We’d definitely book her again.”


“Kiana was amazing! She kept in contact, was super easy to get ahold of, and even did a little extra when we found a bees nest right before we left for vacation! The dogs loved her and even my cat, who barely shows herself, allowed picture updates! She left the house exactly as we left it and even did a little extra! Would definitely recommend and use her again!”


“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 ?”


“Melissa watched our 5 month old puppy. Highly recommend! We were provided with updates, the dog loved it, and Melissa took great care of our house. Will definitely have her help again when we are away!”


“Ceara took great care of our dog and home while on a last minute trip. She was patient and attentive to our elderly pup. Would 100% recommend her to anyone.”


“Katelyn did an excellent job watching Sadie and Bogey. She provided many updates and photos during the stay and was able to provide appropriate care according to each dog’s specific needs. When we arrived back from our trip both dogs were happy and the home appeared to be well cared for. I would definitely recommend Katelyn for pet sitting and boarding.”


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.

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.”
