Dog Boarding in Upper Darby

I'm a dog owner since I was a kid. I love taking care of dogs - walking, feeding, bathing, playing, etc. I live at the parkway & my place is pet-friendly (it also has a dog park). I prefer to dog sit 1-2 dogs per night because I want to provide proper nurturing and quality time. I work on weekdays, but I make sure to feed and walk the dog in the morning and afternoon. My work is just 10 mins away from my home so I come by sometimes during lunch break to do another walk. My weekend availability varies - when I am available it means I am just at home the whole day. Currently, I don't have a dog living with me, but I grew up with different kinds of breeds: cocker spaniel, bulldog, dachshund, chihuahua, and other mixed breeds. I believe that dogs are like children; you have to treat them with love, patience, respect... and give them lots of attention! :) Feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

**over 10 years of dog sitting experience**

Your dog can roam free 24/7 with constant companionship in my comfortable, peaceful, smoke-free two bedrooms condo with a small patio. Also a block from Rittenhouse Park!

I'm home all day or would step out only few hours. I have all the free time to play and keep your pet company. Your pups will feel calm and loved being spoiled with attention while you're away. I rescued 2 pugs in 2006 ; unfortunately, my boy Titan passed away at the age of 16 and my girl Cleo 15th.

My home is best suited for small to medium sized dogs that get along well with other dogs. I also do dog daycare and dog walking. I love all dogs and I treat every dogs as my own. They will get uncountable hugs and kisses through out the day. We will play through out the day inside and outside the house. I have many experiences with difference types, sizes and personalities. I'm conveniently located a block away from Rittenhouse Square Park and 10 mins walk to Schuylkill dog park. If your pups love long walk, I can take them as far as they need (to your request).

- I will take care of your dogs as my own.

-Very flexible schedule. You can drop your dog off or pick up at any time (11pm? 4am? No problem). I can walk to pick up your pup or meet up half way within 1 mile radius.

- I kennel/crates dogs upon request only. They are free to be anywhere in my place.

- You pup will never be alone longer than 4 yours (usually less)

- All dogs are required to potty trained.

- I own a car for in case of an emergency.

- Must be up to date on all current vaccinations and medications (i.e. Front Line, Heart Worm, etc)

- I will do my very best to accommodate the drop-off and pick-up time.

I love animals and they know it. i along with my husband Roger have 40yrs of experience raising,training and rescuing large breed dogs and puppies. We've lived with Afghan Hounds, Greyhounds and Borzoi, at one point having three big boys in the house. Now we have our cats Mini a Bengal and Tera a rescue and although we love them both, we miss having our dogs. We live across from a large park and two blocks away from the Ben Franklin Parkway which makes dog walking and excercise easy, fun and convenient. Our animals are our family and we will care for your pets like family when in our home. DOGS MUST BE HOUSETRAINED. We DON’T BOARD PIT MIXES. We require a Meet & Greet so that everyone is comfortable.

I work from home full-time, so I'm available all day to sit with your pet. Our dogs are friendly and enjoy playing in a large, fenced backyard. My husband and I have experience being foster parents for All4Paws rescue so we are used to caring for dogs of different temperaments. We are located on the Upper Mainline in Malvern.

It may sound simplistic,...but our family just loves dogs. When my husband and I were shopping for our house, we were more concerned about the size of the backyard than anything else - concerned our own dogs would have plenty of room to roam. We have been dog-sitting on Rover for 6 years,...and look forward to caring for your four-legged children too.

We do require that your pets be friendly with other dogs, kids and babies.

Why I love dog sitting

How long have I been a dog lover? Forever! I volunteered at the SPCA during college and rescued two dogs of my own the moment I finished school. My husband and I joke that he needed to ask their permission to marry me. My husband volunteered for All4Paws rescue for many years and we fostered a number of dogs for them. My husband and I haven't had a day without dogs since we married 16 years ago. We are a dog family. Those of you who are dog-people, probably understand, from the depths of your soul, exactly what that means. We just love dogs.

About my yard

Our yard is 0.4 acres and the back is completely fenced in with a 6' high privacy fence. There's a small shed and a couple of bushes, I attached photos.

My experience administering medication

We have experience with both oral and injected meds as well as eye drops. Also, any special dietary needs can be catered to as well.

Hello and thank you for your interest in our services! We are two animal lovers dedicated to providing a safe and comfortable stay for your beloved dog. Our home is great for dogs who enjoy the company of their humans since it is rare for us to leave the house unattended for an extended period of time. On average you can expect your dog to be left alone for no more than 2 hours a day.

Our boarding rates are per 24 hours. Daycare is up to 11 hours (8 am to 7 pm). We ask for a 30-minute window for the drop off and pick up. We will try our best to provide you with a grace period should you run late, but can’t guaranty to be home after the window has expired. As long as we know in advance, we would be happy to accommodate any pick ups and drop offs between 8 am and 7 pm. We have plenty of dog beds, toys, and food/water bowls available, so you don't have to worry about bringing your own.

Our dog walking rates are per 30 minutes. Depending on your pup’s needs, training walks start at $25 per walk.

All dogs must be up to date on their vaccinations and flea and tick preventatives.

My best friend Kia, recently passed away so I will make sure your dog is cared for and has a great time when they are with me. I will make sure they get plenty of exercise and love. I am also close to parks for playtime. I will play with them for as long as they can stand it. I will make sure they are tired before I am! I am available for those late night walks when it is super cold out or your exhausted after a long day at work and you don't want to make the trip out. I will protect them as if they were my own and make sure they feel safe with me. You can count on me to make sure your beloved animal is cared for.

Hi! I'm Dana. I live with my amazing dog Oliver, a Cocker Spaniel. We'd love to have your pup stay over!

I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I have many years of experience caring for other dogs in their homes and mine. This neighborhood is great for dogs! Clark Park is right down the block, and Penn's campus is not far.

Your pup can choose to hang out and sleep on the furniture, the floor, or, if he/she (or you) prefers, in the small crate that Oliver never uses (you can also bring your own bed and/or crate, of course). Oliver is good about sharing his space and his toys. Because this is West Philadelphia, there are the usual city noises; the only dogs who won't be comfortable here are those that are very sensitive to noise. If for any reason your dog needs medical attention, there are a number of excellent vets in the area. So, you can sleep easy knowing that your pet will be safe with me.

Please note that I have two ongoing time commitments around which drop-offs and pickups have to work. On Wednesdays, I am gone from 6 - 8:45 PM. On Sundays, I am gone from 2:45 - 4:30 PM. Other than those two time periods, I do my best to work around your schedule.

I look forward to meeting you and your dog!

Why I love dog sitting:

I have always loved dogs! Growing up, my brothers and I begged my parents for a dog. They got us gerbils, turtles, and fish - all the wannabe-dogs in the world - until finally giving in and getting Maggie, a Springer Spaniel.

Since then, I have cared for many, many dogs. They have been on all kinds of diets and all kinds of medications - that stuff is no problem for me. I couldn't get a dog of my own until I got out of grad school; as soon as I could, I found Oliver.

My experience administering medication:

I am a neuroscientist by training; I do not balk at a couple of pills and needles. I have cared for dogs with health problems before and know how important it is that they take their medication on time every day. I also know to watch for the symptoms of various diseases.

I'm a mother of two dog-loving teens ( the third is neutral) and one incredibly sweet and welcoming dog named Joe. I have a very flexible schedule all year, including holidays. I have a fair amount of experience with visually impaired, visually impaired/hearing impaired, epileptic, and diabetic dogs. Sign up with me and your best friend will go on outings, have plenty of play-time in our medium-sized and secure fenced-in yard (no diggers, bush breakers, and escape artists please), relax in the playhouse, and enjoy every inch of our 3-story home. My teen boys, husband, and the resident dog, Joe are all dog lovers and will add even more merriment to your doggie's day. I will carry over all your rules or lack thereof depending on your wishes.

My experience administering medication

Hi, I’m Bridgette (Jet for short). I live in North Philly, slightly west of Broad St. I made my first big move here from Washington, DC in August 2018!

I am using Rover as a tool for exploring the neighborhood, making extra money, and befriending pets that I would otherwise never get to meet.

My pet care style is relaxed and neighborly. I am interested in building community and engaging in thoughtful communication to guarantee that pets have their needs met when life gets busy for their humans.

Most of my clients live in Fishtown. I only travel short distances by bike, but I will consider traveling farther to pet sit on holidays and off days. Feel free to shoot me a message to confirm availability!
