“Christina is such a sweet and caring person whom I trusted completely with Harley. She took care of him for 3 separate days. She was prompt and followed my instructions and sent updates and pictures throughout the day. She was available for all the days I needed her for. She was courteous and kept everything in my home neat. She is such a pleasure to work with, and I know Harley was so happy to see her. I definitely plan on hiring Christina again when I need someone to take care of Harley. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always had a genuine love for animals. I currently have a dog of my own, so I understand firsthand that pets are more than just animals — they’re family. Growing up with dogs has taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, attention, and, of course, plenty of love and belly rubs! Whether your pup needs a fun walk, some companionship, or simply someone they can feel comfortable with while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and respect I give my own dog. My goal is to make every walk a happy, safe, and enjoyable experience for your four-legged family member. 🐶❤️ I currently work full time and have weekends and evenings available. So drop ins for those who work longs shifts I can easily handle. Looking forward to meeting new clients I have a nice size dog park at my apartment complex. But serving at the clients residence would be better so the dog feels safer and more comfortable

About: Hi! I’m an animal lover who would love the opportunity to care for your furry family members. I grew up with both big and small dogs, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes. I’m also a proud cat owner and have had my own cat for the past 4 years! I also have 3 years of experience as a dog walker in Philadelphia while I was in college. During that time, I gained valuable experience caring for dogs and learned how important it is to be patient, attentive, and reliable. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, needs, and routines. Whether your pet loves going on walks, playing, exploring, or simply relaxing and getting lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I’ll treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are in caring hands and receiving plenty of love and attention. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! I have a flexible schedule and am available for pet care Monday through Friday from 7 AM to 1 PM. This gives me plenty of time to focus on your pet’s needs without feeling rushed. I can help with morning walks, feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, and giving your pets lots of love and attention while you’re away. I’m reliable, attentive, and happy to work with your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I focus on keeping them comfortable, happy, and safe in their familiar environment. I follow their usual routines for feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and litter box cleaning. I love giving pets attention and affection, while also respecting their personalities and boundaries, especially if they need time to warm up to someone new. As a cat owner of 4 years and a volunteer at an animal shelter specifically caring for cats, I understand the importance of patience and individualized care. I also have experience as a dog walker for 3 years in Philadelphia while I was in college, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes. My goal is to make sure every pet feels loved and well cared for while their owner is away. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands!

“Calm and friendly, Margaret was just what my pups needed as they experienced their first long car ride and hotel stay for a family funeral. She was very receptive to our dogs' needs and behaviors, and I would recommend her to anyone needing care for their fur family.”

About: Hey There! My name is Ashley and I am a pet enthusiast. I’ve had 20+ years of being around all types of dogs and cats and they are just the best! Why not let them get a little a little R&R while you get a little too! I personally have two dogs of my own that I love dearly. I have a lot of experience with clients who have large quantities of pets. So if you have more than one animal that needs to be taken care of that is absolutely okay! I think I will be the best fit for your animal sitting needs because who wouldn’t want someone so passionate about animals taking care of their very own pet? Look forward to hearing from you soon! I currently work full time early morning shift at the hospital. I get out early just in time for mid day to later evening sittings. I am available anytime during the weekend. I have a fenced in yard big enough for all the days play they will need! A lot of running around and fetch happen here so they don’t want to miss out!

“Meg was so great with our two dogs! She was in contact with us often, keeping us up to date, and sending lots of pictures. Our dogs were taken care of exceptionally. Will definitely rebook and recommend to anyone!”

“Lisa was amazing! We are so happy that we found her. Chase was so comfortable with her, which of course made us feel so much better. She communicated with us throughout the entire stay. We cannot wait to plan our next getaway knowing that Chase is in good hands. Thank you Lisa!! ???”

“Gabi took care of our elderly dog and cat while we traveled. She arrived on time for our initial meeting and also on the day of our departure. She sent photos and updates while we were away. She left the home in good condition and even ran the dishwasher. We would definitely use her again.”

The only days I am off are Thursdays and Sundays. So anything after 3 is fine and Thursdays I am available all day. I will care for your pets with love and affection.

About: I’m a dog trainer and animal lover wanting to walk and watch dogs for my community. I professionally train dogs with years of hands on experience from training and walking neighbor’s, family’s, and friend’s dogs. I want to have genuine connections with my returning pups and help maintain peaceful downtime at home. I am familiar with different dog training tools and methods so when caring for your dog I can ensure your pup gets the same structure as they do with you. If supplied with a retractable leash or long line I would love to take your dog to play fetch, run, and explore at a nearby park, beach, or field. I love to tackle puppy behaviors with positive methods and offer tons of solutions to typical puppy shenanigans when dog sitting. Un-house broken, teething, and high energy pooches are welcome and wanted! Wednesday/Friday are my anytime service days! I offer pet sitting, walks, and check-ins all hours of the day. I train dogs privately weekends and Tuesday/Thursday. There are only morning/evening timed services on these days such as walks and check-ins. Mondays I do not offer morning services, but afternoon/evening times are good to go for walking, check- ins, and dog sitting. I want to love and dote on your dog as much as I do my own, showering them in attention and playtime while I’m with them. When walking a new dog I get a rundown of known behaviors, tools, or reactions to be aware of, and will ensure the current methods you use are understood and applied correctly. If there is no preferred method or procedure for walks, I’ll bring my bag of treats, toys and poop bags then off we go! When dog sitting or check-ins let me know your dogs preferred feeding schedules and daily routine so I can keep your dog steady along their regular path. If there’s any house rules I should know for your dog such as no pets on the furniture or in specific rooms I will ensure they’re followed.

About: Animal care in varying forms is what I do full time. I am available for boarding and sitting both weekdays and weekends, as you need. I have a large, warm home to offer to make your pet feel safe and at home. I can also fit right into your home, smoothly taking care of your pet in their own setting.

“Katie provided excellent communication and took care of our dogs well. Will rebook with her!”

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 love animals I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid. Making sure every animal is loved is very important to me. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine through planned, consistent time set aside for each pet’s needs. On a daily basis, I schedule time for feeding, providing fresh water, walks or exercise, cleaning litter boxes or waste areas, and giving attention, playtime, and companionship. I also monitor pets for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health. On a weekly basis, I incorporate deeper cleaning of pet areas, restocking supplies, grooming as needed, and reviewing any special instructions from pet owners. I plan my schedule in advance to ensure pet care responsibilities are met reliably without interfering with other commitments. Pet care in my home and/or a client’s home is provided based on the specific service requested and the individual needs of each pet. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, exercise, and routines. In a client’s home, I ensure pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment by maintaining their normal daily routine, providing fresh food and water, cleaning litter boxes or waste areas, and offering companionship, playtime, and supervision. In my home, pets are kept in a safe, clean, and calm environment with appropriate supervision, regular feeding, exercise, and rest. I prioritize the pet’s safety, health, and emotional well-being at all times and communicate with owners as needed to provide updates or address concerns.
