About: Currently accepting new clients!!! Hello! My name is Khai. I am currently a college student (online - so I am often available) studying Engineering and available for cat sitting. My nickname is Kitty and some of my friends called me "Kitty Khai Khai" since I'm very affectionate with kitties ​and I happen to get along with shy, anxiety fueled, or aggressive kitties. I'm originally from Myanmar. Back home at my parents', we end up adopting lots of street cats over 20 years since they happened to stop by and end up living at our house. My parents has raised cats like their own grand children, so I grew up nurturing cats including their kitten babies and senior cats. I handle kitties gently with love and great care, and am very attentive to their needs. I understand how cat parents feel while you're away from your cats; I'm here to make sure you could enjoy your trip while knowing your kitties are well cared for and in safe hands. The well being, happiness and comfort of your kitty is my top priority! I hope to adopt my own cat in the city when I finally finished college... but for now I will get some kitty time in watching and caring for yours! :) Also, I am fully vaccinated + booster shot!! I wash hands before feeding/ touching the kitties and wear a mask when pick up/ drop off at my home and in clients' home. Regular check in/ check out time for kitties are after 4 pm, but I am willing to work with you depending on your needs. 😊 I offer boarding at my home and visiting client's home for drop in services. I have no children and no pets at my home. It has been my life long dream to have a kitty hotel where a kitty guest can enjoy their stay with lots of pets and attention from me and have all the cat trees, toys and amenities. When I was in the house buying process, I chose this home specifically, since it’s spacious for kitties to roam around and lots of windows with sunlight where kitties can enjoy watching outside. I have set it up as a kitty hotel where it’s a vacation place for kitties to chill and relax and spend time with me. My home sweet home is located in a cozy neighborhood and completely safe and warm environment for kitties. Kitties are never allowed outdoors.

“Kia was great. I was able to go away for an extended work trip without worrying about my boys. I came home to happy well-fed cats. I would definitely hire her again and recommend her to anyone.”

About: I know what it’s like to worry about your fur babies being away from you for an extended period of time, which is why I strive to provide top-notch service, which includes: feeding and medication per the pet parent’s instructions, plenty of walks, play time, lots of cuddles (if they’re okay with that!) with photo updates throughout it all. As an animal shelter volunteer, I especially have experience with cats, including kittens as young as 2 weeks old. Since I have recently moved to Philadelphia my availability is now completely open, which works out perfectly for scheduling time with fur babies! Any scheduling discrepancies will be communicated right away. My approach to pet care is centered on safety and maintaining a stress-free routine. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize a 'safety-first' environment by double checking locks and removing potential hazards.

“Jada is excellent. Quick and painless with watching my beloved babies. Toward the end of the visit my VERY standoffish girl that usually stays away from people offered some cuddles which was pretty much a stamp of approval. Attentive, quick, and made sure to come on time to feed my babies. Will be booking again.”

“Ana was absolutely incredible. I’m so grateful for her. She took care of our elderly, diabetic cat Hannah (who also has CKD) while my partner and I were away. Ana expertly administered the plethora of medications (oral and injectable) and checked Hannah’s blood glucose via glucometer. She was also extremely patient when feeding her and cleaned up after Hannah had a couple accidents in her bed. I was especially appreciative of Ana’s flexibility and attention to detail when Hannah’s needs changed shortly before my trip after we had booked. Ana was very communicative as well and sent us plenty of updates and pics during her check-ins. I would recommend Ana to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter who can manage complex cats like my own. A million thank you’s to Ana and I will definitely book with her again!”

About: I care for neighbors' animals when they are away. I care for my adult children's animals when they are away. I am very experienced in caring for animals I work during the week but am available at night. I am available every weekend day and night. I typically care for animals on the weekends. I can keep your dog or cat entertained whether through playing with toys or going for walks. I can crate them and administer medicine when needed.

“Rachel was amazing. She watched my 4 month old puppy while I was away and provided updates and photos which helped me worry a little less about him! I would recommend Rachel’s services to anyone looking for a dog sitter and I would work with her again in the future!”

About: Hi! I'm Sophia, I work from home full-time in West Philadelphia. Because I'm home all day, I'm able to offer consistent midday walks. I've spent years helping care for the dogs of close friends and family, and I genuinely love the company. I'm calm, patient, and attentive and I have a soft spot for senior dogs and puppies. I'm available Monday through Friday from 10am to 3pm, every week, reliably for solo walks only. I send photo updates during every walk so you can see exactly how things are going and I'm happy to do a free meet-and-greet before any first booking. I work from home full-time and do midday walks daily so your dog gets a real break in the middle of the day, not rushed bookings before or after a commute. Working from home also means I can offer longer, unhurried drop-in visits. I'm consistent with timing, respectful of the space, and careful to leave everything exactly as I found it. I am very detail-oriented and neat, so I will treat your pets and your home with respect. For senior pets on medication, I'm comfortable administering oral medications and following specific care routines. Just walk me through it at our free meet-and-greet and I'll follow your instructions to the letter.
