This was the first time that my Shaka has spent a week away from me since relocating here to Delaware approximately two years ago. I was naturally nervous and my anxiety was at an all time high. However, Myra calmed my nerves by reassuring me that he was fine and to enjoy my vacation and not to worry. Myra sent me several photos and updates throughout the day. I was so happy to see her giving my Baby so much attention and love. It truly calmed my nerves and I was able to enjoy a much needed vacation. My Shaka loves Myra and so do I. She is definitely my go to Sitter and I highly recommend her to care for and love on your Fur Baby.

I provide daily photos throughout your pets daily routine and tons of love I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of enough time to care for your fur baby.

Recently left my puppy with Thelma. I was able to go on vacation without concerns for my pups well being. She took extra precautions to keep him safe by putting up extra barricades around her fence to prevent him from escaping. My pup loved playing with her dogs. i definitely will have her watch my dog again.

I can’t say enough about Gisel and her family that gave us a warm welcome the moment we connected. At our meet and greet, I knew she was the one to host our #furbaby Cody. Even her children were loving towards him. They are a wonderful family and far exceeded our expectations of caring for our Cody with pics and videos the whole seven days. Our neighbor uses her as well for their Yorkie and are very pleased with the care they’ve received. The bonus for us, she’s a stay at home mom and Cody was not left alone all day. She has small dogs as well and he was able to meet new friends. This was our first time leaving Cody without family and Gisel eased all of my anxiety because of her love for animals. We’ll be using her again soon.😊

About: I was a cat sitter during my first few years of high school. My neighbor was out of state and asked me to take care of her cat. During this time, I would visit at minimum, three times a day to make sure the cat had food and water, had some playtime, and to clean and freshen the litter box. The owner had specific instructions for feeding that I would follow and prepare accordingly. Like dogs, I have a special place in my heart for cats and I always make sure their needs are fulfilled.

About: I’ve been dog walking and sitting for neighbors since I was 12 years old. I’ve dog sat multiple types of dogs. I’ve done dog walking, check-in & potty break visits, and I’ve stayed at a clients home for long periods of time (5+ days) to be with their pups. I’ve also been tasked with administering insulin shots to dogs before. And I have a lot of experience with dogs that have anxiety, whether with new people, thunderstorms, or anything else, as I have one myself and a long remaining client of mine does as well. I’ve always loved dogs, having grown up having 2 smaller dogs myself. I am hoping to do pet sitting as a new permanent business, so I will have nothing but time to look after your pets! I will schedule out days and time periods based on client necessity and to provide the optimal care for your pets. Because I have two dogs myself, one of which has severe people and other animal anxiety, which for the safety of your pets and mine means I am unable to bring any pets into my home as of current. However, I’ve stayed at the homes of clients before to be with their pups while they’re away. I feed them every morning and night or make sure the food bowl is full depending on how the client feeds their dogs. I give them any medicine or joint tablets that they need to be well. I let them out multiple times a day whenever they need it. And I try to play with and pet them as much as I can while I’m there so they don’t miss their humans too much. I will even take them on a walk if allowed.

Our senior kitty is very shy and often won't come out or even eat for people she's not familiar with, but she did for Sabrina! We were also provided with numerous photos, updates, and a very detailed write up of the visit. We will certainly be reaching out when we need services in the future!

Following directions and care requests provided is not a problem.

About: A little experience background: * I was raised learning to care for pets in a family of trainers and boarders. We also spent a lot of time working with local shelters. * Professionally, I started working in boarding and assisting with training and behavioral rehabilitation 20 years ago * In 2012, I started my career in dog grooming * I am certified to groom dogs and cats * In 2020, I became certified to train new groomers for their certifications. My specialties: * I specialize in fear-free, comfort experiences. * I do trauma rehabilitation grooming for pets who can't go to standard salons due to behavior/aggression issues. For this, I focus on building trust and over time, getting your fur babies comfortable enough with the process so that they learn to enjoy being groomed. The goal is to one day get them to the point where they can once again be welcomed back to a normal salon. * Many of the grooms I perform are also for pets that are unable to be serviced in standard salons due to health issues. * Senior pet care * Puppy care * Basic training * Administering medications and monitoring for symptoms and side effects. What to expect during their stay: * Daily walks 2-4 times a day (depending on if you have them in a schedule, I try to maintain that for you) * Plenty of one on one time and attention! * Trips to the dog park (with your permission and depending on your pet for obvious safety reasons) * Story time! (It may sound silly, but I have found that offensive times, relaxing and reading a bedtime story out loud, often helps to calm a pets anxiety levels. I have even had success in this with pets that have high anxiety and destructive/aggressive behavior for storms and loud noises when they were out of their medication) * A calming, loving, family experience for your fur baby. Always. * Picture, video, and message updates about your pet! * Play time and exercise! * Trust that I will follow strict instructions and schedules if given. Routine is important. * Trust that your pup is being cared for someone experienced in emergency and medical situations. I will act quickly and always do what is best for your pet! In anything I do, I ensure your dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I treat all pets like they are family and build genuine bonds. Communication is key, so it is important that you not only communicate as much information about your dog to me so I can give the best experience, but also that you receive full reports on behavior, any changes I may have noticed in your pup, subtle signs of potential health concerns, etc. I will also work with your dog on basic training if needed during their stays, and educated you as needed on grooming maintenance, your pets body language and behavior shifts to elevate your bond at home as well. I do offer grooming services for any pets in my care. However, pricing and service completion will depend on the size of your dog, condition your pet is in, and their stress levels. I will never force a pet through a service. I am generally home all day. I do work as a groomer for pets that are unable to got to salons, but I do this from home as well. So your pets will have round the clock love and care. You will need to provide any food and specific treats if your pet has a favorite or dietary restrictions/allergies. Pets are family. I will personally take them for walks throughout the day for fresh air and exercise, play with them and ensure they feel comfortable and lived while you are away. I do offer creating services, however, depending on the size of your dog, you may have to supply the crate. You pet will always be treated like family, but the details of their routine and activities will depend on your instructions. I respect that different lifestyles require different things (i.e crating vs free roam, scheduled feeding vs grazing, scheduled walks/potty breaks vs whenever they want to go out, etc.) and will maintain that sense of normalcy as much as possible. If you opt for grooming, and I am able to comfortably groom your dog, grooming will take place 1-2 days before your return. That way they have time to decompress after, and if they are stressed for parts, it gives leeway to do little bits over time.

About: Hi, my name’s Lindsey! I’m 25 years old and I absolutely love all sorts of animals. At home I have 3 dogs, 2 cats, Goats, Ducks, chickens, a gecko, a turtle and fish. My house has always been full of pets growing up, as I participated in my local 4-H club for 9 years. I have had lots of animals, including lizards, fish, a hedgehog, a ferret, cats, dogs, lambs, goats, pigs, and cattle. I have also had lots of experience over the years taking good care of my neighbors’ and friends’ pets whenever they are out of town. You have my word that I will be reliable and closely follow all your instructions for your little ones, and I will be sure to treat and love your pets like my own! I am home most of the day since I work from home. You have my word that your pets will be treated lovingly in my hands. I have a tendency to spoil all animals. I have a fenced in yard, perfect for running around and playing. I always make sure that I have fresh cold water outside during play time.

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life and have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for pets. Growing up, my mom had five dogs—some of which had puppies—and I helped raise and care for them. I’ve also cared for cats in multi-pet households, including feeding, litter box maintenance, and creating calm, safe environments for shy or senior cats. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I now have a black Yorkie of my own, and I treat every animal I care for like part of the family—whether they bark or purr! I currently work part time- and have lots of free time! I will send out a daily schedule of what I’ll be doing with the pets! I will take your dog out on walks on our neighborhood trail outside! I also have a few ring cameras, and will send a lot of pictures/videos throughout the day.

About: I have been walking/sitting all sized dogs for 10+ years simply because dogs make me happier than anything else! I consider myself affordable so you can work away from home with ease knowing your dog won't be in a kennel all day long! I also dog sit/house sit if you need to go away for business or vacation and can not take your 4 legged friends with you. I am trustworhty and dependable so you do not have to worry about a stranger coming in for your dog but more so your dogs BFF coming in to let the out for a little and play and to use the bathroom for a potty break! I hope to talk to you soon and meet your furry friend(s)! I am home almost all day everyday so my schedule is pretty open and I am extremely flexible to accommodate your schedule as well if needed! I have a fenced in big back yard and a very friendly 3 year old lab to accompany your dog! Frequent let outs and frequent cuddle seshs!

I offer specialized expertise in the full spectrum of a dog’s life, from the joyful, structured development of raising my current puppy, Oliver Lane, from 10 weeks old, to the tender, complex management of my late two elderly 15-year-old babies. This dual experience means I am equally skilled at navigating puppy milestones and providing the specialized medical and palliative care required for seniors. I apply the same discipline from my 25-year career to maintain a structured 24/7 routine, ensuring that every pet—regardless of age—benefits from a calm, intuitive, and highly organized environment filled with family-level love. SPECIALIZED PET CAR: After a 25-year career as a doctoral-level educational professional, I have transitioned to a full-time schedule dedicated to dog care. Maintaining a 24/7 routine for my own 2-year-old fur child, Oliver Lane, affords me the unique flexibility to adapt to your dog's specific scheduling needs. I provide smoke-free, hypoallergenic, flea- and tick-conscious boarding in my pet-friendly home, designed with easy-clean flooring for comfort and hygiene. Dogs enjoy a full acre of play space in a welcoming neighborhood with secure neighboring fences for a safe, social environment. Crating is available only if requested, part of a routine, or needed for training/transitional support. Verifiable shot records are required for any service. Transportation is available in my Ford Explorer “Mini-Hotel,” featuring climate-controlled comfort, orthopedic blankets, toys, and premium treats. With 25 years of leadership experience and a lifetime of animal care, I provide 24/7 active supervision, ensuring every guest is safe, loved, and treated like family.

About: Hello Pet Owners! My name is Haley and I've been a dog walker and overnight sitter for many animal friends in the Fairmount area for three years now, and have been a professional animal caregiver for about 8 years total. I’ve previously worked at NYC's main animal shelter as an adoption counselor and foster parent for a long time, and feel comfortable working with animals with anxiety, leash reactivity, allergies, medications, or that require other special care, and always work them with the utmost patience. Though a lot of my clients tend towards the smaller side, I love our bigger buddies, too! I offer a very personalized care experience for your fur baby- all dogs are walked and cared for individually, never with other clients simultaneously. And when your pet is in my care, they are my absolutely priority focus! I am a hands on, eyes on, camera on constantly sitter- you will receive plenty of photo updates and confirmation on your pets well being. My schedule is completely self-made, so I often have last minute availability and a lot of flexibility when it comes to scheduling! I understand just how much we love and care for our pets (my dog Moby is like My son), and I always make sure to give yours the affection, attention, and playtime you would while you're gone! Currently, the majority of my work is freelance editing, so my schedule is flexible and typically quite open. I have full week availability, especially for walks- even last minute bookings! I have a small, fenced backyard big enough for casual play and outdoor lounging, and a large main living area with space for fetch and plenty of cozy cuddle room on my big, pet friendly couch! My little guy, Moby, is a 3 year old Morkie who is sweet, playful, and adjusts well to other animals’ energy preferences.

About: I will love and take care of your pets as if they were my own. I love to go out and play with pets I care for. I would dog sit when I was in high school for different families. Those families loved how attentive I was, and as a result they would refer me to their friends. I’m always available for you buddies! You and me both know that your pets are more than pets, theyre family. You don’t want just anyone taking care of family. I do currently work full time, however I have a job that is extremely flexible. I set my own hours, including when I am in my office. This pairs perfectly with animal care and house care because I can come and go as frequently as needed. Due to my open schedule I can be available for any needs your pets may have. I prefer to let the client tell me exactly what they want for their pet. I like to keep your life as simple as possible while giving you peace of mind by following any requests you have. If you need your animal crated, if you want them roaming, whatever is asked you can expect to be done.

About: I am a young stay at home mom and animal lover. I regularly work with and foster for several rescues in addition to petsitting, and have experience with bottle feeding, medical fostering, medication administration, and after surgery wound care, as well as light training, and “feral school” with feral and semi feral cats. Being a stay at home mom allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and the ability to provide as many "in home" visits as your individual pet(s) requires, or give them as much attention, walks, playtime and quality time in my home as they need. For boarding stays in my home I do request that for dogs they be other dog and cat friendly, as I do own animals of my own. For cats I do have the ability to keep them separated from my animals and give them their own "room" with window cat perch, toys and bed that are all thoroughly cleaned between each client. I am a lifelong pet owner and have owned and worked with everything from hamsters to horses(even reptiles!), I have experience owning and working with high energy and working class dog breeds, as well as ferral and semi ferral cats. Pets are family, and when they are with me they will always be treated as such! I am a stay at home mom with a flexible schedule allowing me to give your pups/kitties as much attention and care as they require. I provide several leashed walks per day, and well as play time in the yard, either on my long line(lunge line previously used for my horses) or in our chain link dog run(dogs are NEVER left unattended). In the home pets are allowed run of the house, unless separation is required. I do use crates or gate them in my kitchen/dining room area if I have to run out for whatever reason. This is to insure their safety and prevent them from getting into anything while unsupervised. I am able to provide crates of various sizes, up to XXL or you are welcome to bring your pets crate with them if you feel they would be more comfortable with their own

About: As a CPDT-KA certified trainer, I offer dog walking services that go beyond basic exercise. Each walk incorporates training and enrichment tailored to your dog’s unique needs. My expertise is ideal for dogs who are fearful, nervous, hyper, or reactive—especially those other walkers may find challenging. A training walk is a perfect way to advance your dog’s progress when your schedule is too packed for regular training sessions. Please note: My walking services are not suitable for aggressive dogs. If you’re dealing with aggression, please contact me directly or explore my specialized training services. I offer training walk services Monday through Friday, with both daytime and evening availability. For the best results, I recommend scheduling two sessions per week, such as Monday/Tuesday or Wednesday/Thursday. I exclusively use positive reinforcement techniques to care for and train dogs, whether during training walks or in your home. My focus is on creating a safe, encouraging environment that builds trust and confidence in your dog. Each session is tailored to meet your dog’s unique needs while reinforcing good behaviors in a kind and effective way. With this approach, I ensure your dog feels supported and thrives in their routine.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a huge part of who I am. Over the years I’ve owned and cared for many different breeds and personalities, including Saint Bernards, Great Danes, and Coonhounds, which gave me plenty of experience handling large and giant-breed dogs. I’ve also shared my home with multiple cats over the years—many of them seniors—so I understand the patience, routine, and gentle care older pets often need. I’ve spent years fostering animals as well, frequently working with senior pets and dogs that may be anxious or slow to trust new people. I pride myself on being patient and letting animals warm up to me at their own pace so they can feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. My home currently includes an Alaskan Klee Kai and a Border Collie mix, so daily life already revolves around exercise, enrichment, and making sure dogs stay happy and engaged. When I travel, my trips are often pet-focused—I’ve driven cross-country multiple times with my dogs to explore new trails, parks, and adventures together. For walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, I always aim to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel secure in their own home. As a larger and experienced handler, I’m comfortable managing multiple dogs on leash and adapting to different energy levels—whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or prefers relaxed companionship and a calm presence. I’m also experienced in administering most medications and providing attentive care for senior pets who may need a little extra support. I have a very flexible work schedule, and can accommodate most dogs needs! As far as overnight sitting, I will be there from 8 pm until 8 am and will also be coming by a few times a day. Puppies and youngsters (or whoever needs it!) can be accommodated with more drop ins just let me know! If you require 24/7 care this can be arranged as well just let me know prior to booking! Your dog’s comfort and routine are my top priorities. I provide focused attention, interactive play, and companionship tailored to your pup’s personality — from calm evenings at home to energetic walks or adventures at parks and trails. I’m experienced with all sizes and breeds, so whether your dog is a tiny pup or a gentle giant, they’ll receive care that’s attentive, confident, and consistent. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, happy, and fully engaged throughout their stay

I apply the same discipline from my 25-year career to maintain a structured 24/7 routine, ensuring that every pet—regardless of age—benefits from a calm, intuitive, and highly organized environment filled with family-level love. SPECIALIZED PET CAR: After a 25-year career as a doctoral-level educational professional, I have transitioned to a full-time schedule dedicated to dog care. Maintaining a 24/7 routine for my own 2-year-old fur child, Oliver Lane, affords me the unique flexibility to adapt to your dog's specific scheduling needs. I provide smoke-free, hypoallergenic, flea- and tick-conscious boarding in my pet-friendly home, designed with easy-clean flooring for comfort and hygiene. Dogs enjoy a full acre of play space in a welcoming neighborhood with secure neighboring fences for a safe, social environment. Crating is available only if requested, part of a routine, or needed for training/transitional support. Verifiable shot records are required for any service. Transportation is available in my Ford Explorer “Mini-Hotel,” featuring climate-controlled comfort, orthopedic blankets, toys, and premium treats. With 25 years of leadership experience and a lifetime of animal care, I provide 24/7 active supervision, ensuring every guest is safe, loved, and treated like family. For everyone’s safety, please let me know your dog’s current flea/tick prevention status. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are always my top priority.

About: Throughout high school and now college I have sat for dogs and cats. I have taken care of many dogs, playing with them, feeding, walks and even cleaning up behind them. With cats I have played, fed, and cleaned out litter boxes. Although I have not done it officially besides friends and family, I want to help you take care of your animals just as if they were my own with love and happiness. I also have a family dog that I have taught to do tricks and helped potty train. I currently work part-time at a grocery store. Most times I work 8am to 2pm so I can take care of your animals before I go to work and after. Even if the there needs to be a drop in, I could take care during working hours as well. Every animal will be treated with love and care. I will stick to a routine that the owner may have and if crating is needed I could do so safely for both me and your pet.

About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals since I started high school. I grew up with dogs, cats and poultry and those are the animals I’ve taken care of most. I’m comfortable with senior care for sure but young puppies and extremely young kittens are outside of my comfort zone. I’m currently commuting to SU for this last semester and finishing off a major doesn’t allow for a lot of job opportunities that were available previously due to the amount of at-home work required. Pet sitting allows a lot more flexibility and brings the brain break of hanging out with fur babies to fit into the class work chaos. I currently have a cat of my own who stays with me as well as my childhood cat and dog who live with my parents. I’ve often pet sat for family and am comfortable with all ages except young puppies and very young kittens.

I give the cats baths maybe once a month and the dogs weekly and I routinely walk the dogs. I watch the dogs while they’re outside while also giving them extra love. I love taking dogs on walks.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was very little! From bottle feeding kittens and newborn puppies, to the older furry friends who need extra attention in different ways. I currently am a stay at home mom to a very friendly and pet safe 4 year old. We take everyday as a new adventure which allows plenty of flexibility. From tasks as serious as medication administration and special diets to as simple but important as preferred toys in their beds so they sleep just like they would if you were home, I will be more than happy to care for your pet as my own.

She gave us constant updates and pics/videos to provide that piece of mind we were hoping for. Utley seemed to really love it there and we will be using her in the future for sure!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, currently I only have one dog for the first time. I will treat your dog like a part of the family. Please let me know if there’s any special treatment that needs done. I do have a toddler home with me as well so I request that the dog is child friendly! I work from home so your dog will get potty breaks whenever they need it. I have a fully fenced in yard for your pup to run around and play. Your dog will be allowed on couches/beds, wherever they are comfortable. I have dog beds and have baby gates set up so they can have areas of peace if they need. I do have a toddler at home who loves dogs but will maintain space if needed. I also have a husky mix who generally just minds her own business.
