“Deliris was very communicative and accommodating with taking care of our cats; I never once worried about them in her care! She sends great pictures and very detailed updates. I recommend choosing her to sit your babies!”


“Tom showed up on time and quickly got acquainted with our doggies. Doggies warmed up to him quickly. He spent some time with them as we will need him for future visits. He seems to be truly caring for furry friends.”


“Carmen was absolutely fantastic with our bully babies. She was very detailed in her report cards and took very good care of our dogs during their drop in visits. Lots of pictures.

About: I have had dogs in my household since I was born so technically I have a life time of experience . I do not own any pets at the moment because unfortunately my dog is back in my hometown with my family. I am completely available on weekends and attend Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine during small intervals on weekdays. My main goal is to keep your dog safe and happy. I will defintaley be glad to keep pets on the same routines they follow at home and maybe even teach a few tricks along the way. My flexible schedule will allow me to be attentive and provide your dog with a many walks, on time feedings, and to schedule any other important requests that you may have. I only have one night class Monday, Tuesday, and Friday and beyond that will be home to care for your pet full time. Walking, feeding, and medication schedules that are implemented at home will be followed while your pet is my care. During a stay with me your dog will definitely enjoy the many grassy areas surrounding my apartment complex and most definitely enjoy our two in house doggy parks. My apartment complex contains many spaces appreaciated by dog owners and I believe that your dog will love it here. I would also enjoy playing with your dogs toys and trying to teach them new tricks and commands!

About: Our Why? We have Huskies, and while still offering our service to other breeds, we highlight that it takes a fellow Husky owner to understand what a Husky needs. Despite their mischievous shenanigans, Houdini escape attempts, endless fur-sheddings, high-pitched vocalizations, bubbly, energized personalities, and hyperactive frolicking, we adore huskies. We understand finding experienced, dependable, loving, and trustworthy caregivers for your Husky isn't easy. That's why we are here to help. We currently have two friendly young huskies (one male and one female- fixed and crate-trained). We also have experience with English bulldogs, Sharpeis, Chow-Chows, Labs, Doodles, and Boxers. We only offer care for dogs based upon the comfortability of the match to our pet-care style and demeanor. We love our pets as we will love yours. We are focused on weekends, holidays, and summer care. We are open to possible weekday arrangements if your dog is crate-trained. Before booking us, a drop-by visit is required to test the compatibility of all humans and dogs. A few things: Special note-while we have never owned a French bulldog, we are particularly interested in learning to care for this breed. Your pet must be spayed or nurtured to receive boarding in our home. Also, we are sorry but we cannot offer care for full or mixed Pit Bull breeds. How does pet care fit into your daily and weekly lives? Our pets receive two meals a day, comprising dry food and water. Our pets are crate-trained and remain crated when owners are away. Most of the time, there is an adult in the house. Our dogs can access a large fenced backyard with green grass and trees. Our dogs walk with owners through nearby Branch Brooke Park and visit the dog park almost daily. Our dogs are crated during adult meal times and sleep in the main bedroom on the floor, side couch, or end of bed at night. We maintain a clean home and provide puppy pads during inclement weather to avoid mud and chaos. Pets have access to some rooms, but not all rooms in the house. Toys and treats are provided regularly. Linens on beds where animals may sleep are washed and switched out regularly. Our gate is blocked off on both sides because huskies are known for escaping. Our pets have ID collars and ID dog tags and wear GPS trackers during the day. Our dogs are up-to-date on immunizations and have been spayed/neutered. We don't hit our dogs with our hands or objects but use basic word commands. Training dogs is always a work in progress. They are both loved for their uniqueness. We only plan to care for pets in our home. We have a large and welcoming home.

“Rachel always takes excellent care of my dogs ! She always feeds them gives them water and let's them out in our backyard or walks them making sure they get enough outside air and bathroom time as well.

Sage P.
“Sage is one of the kindest, most gentle, and loving souls I’ve ever met. I have watched them handle dogs of different breeds, sizes, and attitudes with grace. Out of the kindness of their heart Sage walks their own dog for several hours almost every day. He is a lover of all living things, saving small bugs from my pool, stopping to look at pretty flowers, and enjoying walks through nature. My three dogs absolutely adore him, even our pup with some trauma and anxiety. If you’re looking for someone who will go out of their way to make your animal feel loved, Sage is your best bet.”
