“Jennifer was amazing!!!! Sent lots of photos of Milo with his new friends! He had the best time with her two pups as well he slept as soon as he got home I know he was playing all day long! 100% will book again.”
“I can't say enough positive things about Paola! Our dog has separation anxiety and is always very anxious when we're not with him, but somehow Paola made him feel right at home and completely comfortable during his stay. She sent us multiple pictures every day and was very at ease knowing our dog was being very well taken care of!”
“Corrine is a GREAT dog sitter. Our Rusty did enjoy his time at Corrine's home. Corrine sends daily pictures which is awesome. Rusty actually loved it so much at Corrine's home he ran up to her to say goodbye!”
“Thank you so much, Rebecca! The dogs were happy, clean, and well taken care of. Most people don't take dogs under 1 year of age and, on top of that, at the last minute!”
“What an amazing family! Our 1 year old doggie spent 10 days with Ashley while we were on vacation !Piper was so well cared for….. just like ishe was their own doggie! We just picked her up and she was so happy! We highly recommend Ashley to care for your doggie!”
“Jousline did an amazing job caring for my French Bulldog, Jorden. She was attentive, reliable, and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. Jorden can be a little particular, but Jousline was patient and handled everything professionally. I also appreciated the updates and communication, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Jousline to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“Our first time leaving our Charli girl with someone other than family. Alba put my mind to ease right from the start. Charli was not only well taken care of she went to a puppy birthday party and played with other pups her size. Alba sent me updates, pictures and videos daily which also made me feel confident Charli was is great care!! Thank you Alba Charli would love to visit again Leslie”
“From our first communication, Kristin was responsive and thoughtful. She offered a meet-and-greet and we took her up on it. Scout was at home immediately and I felt comfortable booking right away. We were gone for 8 days, which is a long time to leave your your little furry one. Kristin shared regular updates, often enough so that every time I thought about how she was doing, there was a picture of her face - safe and happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Kristin and would definitely ask for her help again if the whole family is traveling.”
“Christine was a great dog sitter for our two dogs Timon and Rafika. They got along well with her dog Piper and I could tell by the pictures they were comfortable and enjoyed their time playing, snuggling and sleeping in their normal comfortable spots. Thank you so much for taking care of our fur babies. Leslie and Rich”
“We were hesitant about leaving Max with anyone while we took a vacation. After meeting Carol we we were reassured. She really put us at ease by sending pictures and a video of Max out for a walk. He was well taken care of and we could relax and enjoy ourselves. We will definitely book with Carol again when we need a sitter for Max. Thank you!!”
“We are very happy with the care Bowser received. From the minute Bowser arrived, it was obvious he felt very comfortable. During his stay he even learned how to use a doggie door following Kim's dog all around and playing with him. Kim did a great job and we definitely plan on using her again!”
“Nicolena was great! I highly recommend here! My dog has bad separation anxiety and she was amazing with Blaze! Kept me updated throughout his stay! She is very good with dogs and would recommend her and would absolutely leave Blaze with her again!”
“Tom was great with our dogs and kept us updated throughout their stay with pictures and regular check-ins. He was very communicative and always responded whenever we had a question or wanted an update. Our dogs were comfortable with him and were very well taken care of. When we picked them up, you could tell they were happy, relaxed, and had enjoyed their stay. Tom would definitely be the first person we reach out to the next time we go on a family vacation and need someone we trust to look after our dogs. Thank you so much, Tom!”
“We had a short window to take a family road trip. We decided to go for it at about 3pm on a Friday, and reached out to Kristin and Rafael. They responded and accepted within the hour! Rafael’s kind and calm demeanor, their lovely home, and the presence of other dogs gave us the piece of mind we needed to be on hour way by 6pm. Within minutes we received a picture of Rocky interacting with other dogs. They sent pics daily and responded to our messages within minutes.”
“Lisa was amazing! We had to make last minute adjustments for a trip out of the country for my Ella to stay with her. She was patient and understanding. The best part is when I went to pick my girl up after not seeing her for 10 days, she was still herself. It's obvious that Lisa has a love for animals. I would recommend to anyone :)”
“Nicole took such amazing care of our dog Dakota while we were away! We’ve used her twice now, and both times Dakota came home sooo happy. You can really tell Nicole genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. She even recommended a great groomer for Dakota, which we really appreciated. She has a nice backyard, and her kids and dogs are super friendly, so Dakota had plenty of fun and social time while staying there. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Dakota was in such good hands. We highly recommend Nicole — definitely a 5-star experience!”

“Jennifer took incredible care of my two-year-old cat, and I couldn’t be happier! This was my first time having someone outside of my family pet sit, so I was definitely nervous — but Jennifer instantly put me at ease. I left very specific instructions and shared my worries with her, and she went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. She kept me updated after every visit with detailed reports and plenty of photos, which I truly appreciated. From her updates and the way my little guy looked in the pictures, I could tell he trusted her completely and felt safe and loved in her care. I’m so grateful I chose Jennifer and would book her again and again without hesitation. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive, I highly recommend her!”
“Brianna is the best. Even our very shy cat came out to see her on day one this time (and this was only the second time we’ve had the pleasure of booking Brianna), proving Brianna’s clear awesomeness. She is also great with all the details, allowing us total peace of mind to enjoy our vacation. Thank you so, so much, Brianna!!!”
“Carly was great! I had to book her last minute because my dog walker fell through. She was flexible and accommodating and made my time away from home stress free. She always showed up on time and kept me updated about my pup. I would definitely have Carly watch Stella again!”
About: I grew up with dogs from the age of 10. I am often called the pet whisperer by family and friends because their pets often do things they don't normally do with people they don't know well. I have a very flexible schedule and will be able to accommodate the needs of the pets to walk and feed take care of them from daily to weekly where needed. At this time I do not have any yard space or ability to have pets stay with me at my house. I am willing to stay at the pet owners home if needed or stop by for their care needs.

About: As a special education teacher, I bring patience, attentiveness, and strong responsibility into everything I do—including pet care. I’ve cared for my diabetic cat his entire life, managing his routine and administering insulin twice daily with consistency and care. I understand how important trust, reliability, and attention to detail are, especially for pets with medical needs. Whether your cat needs basic care or extra support, I provide a calm, loving, and dependable environment so you can feel completely at ease.
About: I’ve been watching cats since I was 12. What first started as helping neighbors with feed/medicate their cats turned into a full blown love for cats. I’ve had two cats, Milo and Tiggy. Both very different Milo (pictured) was a wild cat, who needed plenty of exercise and attention. Tiggy, more resembled Garfield who loved to eat and cuddle up to you whenever you were on the couch. I understand cats needs depend on their personalities but I can assure you i can build trust and safely watch over your cat while you’re away.
“Sophia did a great job checking on my animals. She was clean, thorough, always checked in and sent photos. She’s trustworthy and good with animals, and I’m very happy with her as a pet sitter.”
About: Love animals and always have had a ton throughout the years. Dogs, cats, birds, hamsters, bunnies etc. I truly think animals are our best friends Remote working individual so my schedule is extremely flexible. I walk my own pup multiple times a day and can be very accommodating for others I live very close to the beach and take my pup for runs regularly- I also have a decent size backyard.

About: Dog lover with a big heart and lots of patience! I treat every pup like my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddle time, your dog’s comfort and routine always come first. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. Daily walks and exercise are part of my normal routine, and I set aside time for feeding, cleaning, and quality bonding. Throughout the week, I stay organized with routines and updates so pets feel comfortable and owners feel confident their pets are well cared for. rovide attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs, whether in my home or in a client’s home. I follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully to keep pets comfortable and on their usual routine
About: Growing up in an animal loving home, I have had the responsibility of taking care of dogs, cats, fish, hermit crabs, birds, turtles, mice, Guinea pigs, and an iguana. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, brush, clean, bathe, and play with their animals. I treat them as if they were my own and as if they were human. I currently work Monday to Friday 8-4:30pm and I am home on weekends. I am able to walk, feed, play, and follow potty schedules as you do in your home after work, on the weekends, or in my home for boarding. I do have owners who are ok with their dogs being in my home while I am at work but it is all about whatever you feel comfortable with! I have a fenced in yard with three house trained, dog friendly doggos. They get a walk everyday and let out as much as they need. My husband and I love to go in the backyard with them and run around or take them on adventures in the car. My dogs do sleep in our room, either in their beds or on our bed, whatever they prefer and that is the same option I will always give your dog. I can crate if needed/requested. Wally and Reed are fed three small meals a day, once in the morning, afternoon, and evening, but I know not everyone’s food schedule is this way. All feedings are separated from your dogs. My older dog has allergies and is given allergy medication daily as well as ear drops which makes me capable of following a medication routine. We also have a Furbo indoor camera that has all eyes on the dogs at all times and baby gates to separate large areas of our home just incase anything were to ever happen. There are times where I will be sitting other dogs as well as yours. All dogs are slowly introduced on leash in the backyard in a safe environment. I allow the dogs to take the time they need to settle in and get a feel and sense of smell of their surroundings. If an owner feels as though the stay will not work out, I am completely understanding. I would never want an owner or dog to ever feel uncomfortable in my home. If you are unsure of your dogs feelings toward other dogs, especially males, I always recommend a meet and greet in advance. I have never cared for a special needs animal, but I have taken care of very sick animals and making sure they are comfortable and accommodated for. If you have a special needs dog and are considering me, I would make all the accommodations necessary to make your pet feel right at home and comfortable.
“Lisa Marie was fantastic with my boys! She sent me pics at every drop in and by the end even my less affectionate cat was loving up on her. She was very communicative and gave my two cats lots of playtime and love. It felt good to know that they were well taken care of! Usually my boys are full of energy after I leave them alone for a night or two, but they were very sweet and snuggly this time since Lisa Marie kept them busy with their toys! I will definitely use Lisa Marie again in the future.”

“Paula was honestly the best dog sitter we could have ever asked for. She is humble, kind, and was absolutely wonderful with Cappucino. She was very, VERY patient with him, through his stubbornness, active personality, and especially his barking. I couldn’t ask for any one better to care for my dog. Cappucino is stubborn and it isn’t easy to get him to trust you, especially if he barely knows you. But somehow, Paula managed to win him over! I was so happy when I found out they were starting to become friends. She send us updates, messages, and pictures throughout our entire stay, and is surprisingly quite a nice photographer! I recommend Paula to everyone, and would give her a 10/5 if I could. You won’t regret having her care for your pup!”
“Mary Ellen was great with our French Bulldog puppy. She watched him for four days while we were in North Beach on vacation. Jack looked forward to seeing her every time and we were able to go to the beach and out to dinner without worrying about him. I would highly recommend Many Ellen”
“Cindy is absolutely fantastic! Highly recommend her if you're looking for puppy daycare. She was lovely with our puppy, Coco. We're anxious parents when we spend a day without Coco and Cindy sent us constant updates with photos on Coco's walks and naps. Coco came back home tired and happy. Thank you Cindy! We will definitely book you again.”
“Our pup, Winston really enjoyed his time with Kristen and her family. From the minute I dropped him off, he was totally comfortable. Their sweet dog, Bailey is a new found friend. They did a lot of playing and napping together:) We’ll definitely be reaching out to Kristen again when pup sitting is needed.”
“My doodle Mildred spent a great day at Nic's place today. It was nice to receive photos and texts as to how she was settling in while we were out of town. We will be booking again in the future for sure!”
About: If you choose to leave your pup with me, I am a remote worker so I will be with them all day. They will have plenty of opportunities to run around on the beach with their new favorite friends.

I trained my family dog Finn as a puppy to catch food, shake and paw. I have experience with senior care with administering medications. I also have experience watching other friends and families dog as well, both small dogs and large dogs. I’m a full time remote worker. I have plenty of time to fit your pups walks, playtime, and feedings into my daily or weekly routine depending on what you’re looking for. You can expect me to be with your dog all day with plenty of walks and beach trips. I can also crate your dog at night if preferred.
“Christine took great care of our boy Junie! It was the first time we left him with anyone and he had a blast! From playing with Christine’s daughter to playing with another pup. Christine kept me informed throughout the day with messages and pictures. I highly recommend!! Thank you!”
About: A true nature lover I love ALL living things! Yes spiders and snakes too. Especially those who can love back . I've rescued and cared for almost every species. Elder dogs and those with health issues. Medications, injections I'm able to deliver it all. My schedule used to revolve around one of my Yorkies 12 hour insulin schedule. I cooked his meals took him for long walks. He loved the water and we spent long hours at the beach. He recently passed at age 15. I'm now willing to share with other pups who need some care and stimulation. I have a large fenced yard and a pool which one of my dogs and another I sit for loves! My other 2 are couch potatoes and are content to lay in the shade although they do enjoy their walks. We exercise rain or shine
About: I have been a dog/cat owner since I was two years old and there is no pet I do not love. I have owned German Shepherds, Australian Shepherds, Mixed breeds, a Papillion, a Great Dane as well as a Himalayan and an Orange Tabby cat. I am able to spend a lot of time with any age pet and treat them as if they’re my own. Being disabled I’m home a lot. I have a fenced in backyard where your dog would be free to run and play. I use a walker. My home has an elevator. Therefore, it is not a problem to let them out frequently. Just let me know what your dog loves and I will make sure they have the best time possible! I do not work. I am disabled. Therefore I’m home a whole lot, probably too much. This enables me to spend quality time with your pet. I have a fenced in backyard. I do not have any dogs or cats of my own. Therefore, I am able to devote all my time and attention to your loved one.

About: Greetings Pet Parents: I recently retired and am able to fulfill a lifelong dream of having a small doggy day care in my house 24/7 I have the time since I am fully retired now to dedicate to taking care of small pets for as long as you may need in my home. I have a fenced patio out back with a long strip of astro turf where your pet can enjoy sunshine, fresh air and potty breaks on demand in a safe secure enclosed space
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and the experience I've gained caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I volunteered with ACCT Philly Animal Shelter, where I helped care for both dogs and cats with a wide range of temperaments and needs. That experience taught me how to be patient, attentive, and adaptable, whether working with energetic puppies, shy rescue dogs, or senior pets that need a little extra care and compassion. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my family always had multiple pets, and I was known as the one who spent the most time caring for them. Whether it was feeding, walking, playing, or simply making sure they felt safe and loved, I naturally took on that role because I truly enjoy being around animals. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience because they're a puppy or senior, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family. Pet care isn't something I fit into my routine—it's a part of my everyday life. I truly believe that when you choose to have pets, you make the time for them. The people closest to me joke that I'm a bit of a "helicopter mom" with my animals, but I think that's exactly why we have such a strong bond. I love going above and beyond to make sure my pets are happy, healthy, and enriched. On nice days, I bring my cats out onto our secure porch so they can safely enjoy fresh air and sunshine. I hide treats around the house to create little "brain games" that keep them mentally stimulated, stay on top of their grooming and hygiene, and make sure each of my pets gets one-on-one attention every day. I think it's important that every animal feels loved as an individual, not just as part of the group. That same level of care is what I bring to every pet I look after. Whether it's sticking to their normal routine, making time for extra play, or simply giving them companionship while you're away, I'll care for them with the same dedication I give my own. I believe the best pet care starts with understanding both the pet's needs and the owner's expectations. I'm also a strong advocate for respecting boundaries—both yours and your pet's. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your furry family member can feel nerve-racking. My goal is to make that experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible. Whether you prefer frequent updates, lots of photos, detailed visit summaries, or specific instructions on how you'd like your pet cared for, I'm happy to accommodate your preferences.

“Jousline did an amazing job caring for my French Bulldog, Jorden. She was attentive, reliable, and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. Jorden can be a little particular, but Jousline was patient and handled everything professionally. I also appreciated the updates and communication, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Jousline to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“From our first communication, Kristin was responsive and thoughtful. She offered a meet-and-greet and we took her up on it. Scout was at home immediately and I felt comfortable booking right away. We were gone for 8 days, which is a long time to leave your your little furry one. Kristin shared regular updates, often enough so that every time I thought about how she was doing, there was a picture of her face - safe and happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Kristin and would definitely ask for her help again if the whole family is traveling.”
“Christine was a great dog sitter for our two dogs Timon and Rafika.

Thank you so much for taking care of our fur babies. Leslie and Rich”

She has a nice backyard, and her kids and dogs are super friendly, so Dakota had plenty of fun and social time while staying there. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Dakota was in such good hands. We highly recommend Nicole — definitely a 5-star experience!”

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. As a stay-at-home mom with a dog of my own, your pup will be treated like a member of my family and receive plenty of attention, companionship, and love throughout the day. I provide a safe, comfortable home environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel at ease while you're away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're gone. Because I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time, each guest receives personalized care and attention. I work from home, which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, and your dog will never be left alone. I enjoy spending time outdoors, going for walks, and making sure every pup feels comfortable and cared for while they're with me. I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of space for dogs to safely run, play, and explore. Your dog will be treated like a member of my family and will receive lots of attention, affection, and supervised outdoor time. My friendly family dog, Ollie, loves making new canine friends and helps visiting pups feel right at home. To ensure a calm and safe environment, I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time and encourage meet-and-greets before boarding. You'll also receive regular photo updates so you can feel confident your pup is happy, comfortable, and well cared for.
