About: I’ve always been good with dogs. I watch the dogs for my family and friends.

About: Call me Cat Lady! I've fostered, rehomed and cared for kittens and adult felines 🐈 over the past nine years. I appreciate the cuddly cats along with the lone kitties who just prefer you feed them and otherwise keep your distance. I will feed and play with your baby (if they are so inclined) as well as ensure the litter is clean and tidy!
About: I will understand your dog's needs and take the time to make sure they are comfortable. I have experience with reactive, aggressive, and shy dogs with varieties of needs. I have 3 border collies, my daily routine is dogs. Training, playing, and adventuring is what we do. Every day has basics that need to be met, but also beyond that. My dogs get their needed play and attention in my small fenced yard daily as well as a different daily activity, from swimming to homemade dog gym time, there's always something different and fun.
About: I have been around animals for my whole life! I attended Saul High School and I am currently attending Harcum college in the Vet Nursing Major!

“Amanda was so incredible checking in on our girl. She gave great info every time she went over and made us feel so comfortable while we were away. She even helped try and reset our WiFi when it went down for us. She is super nice and we’ve already rebooked her to watch our girl on an upcoming trip!”
About: I have always felt comfortable caring for cats especially for the strays I used to see in my neighborhood, it wasn’t until 2 years ago where I adopted my first cat (Michu) and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. I was always skeptical because I was very allergic to them growing up but overtime my body became tolerant to different pets. Every day I’m still learning something new about my cat but I have learned how to gain the trust of them simply by being calm and caring with them.
“Marilyn was absolutely amazing. Very kind and caring, sent photos and always responded to any text messages. She took great care of our cat. We chose Marilyn because she is a retired nurse and our cat is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day. We would definitely use her again and refer her to her others in need of pet care. Thanks Marilyn!”

“This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter. Him being blind causes him to be sensitive but he was surprising comfortable with Emeline! She was nothing but nice and welcoming.

We are absolutely using her again in the future!”

About: At home we have always had pets and that is why I have experience in their care. I have also taken care of relatives' pets from birth until they have become adults. Caring for pets is a central part of my daily routine. I dedicate my time fully to providing attentive, loving care through this platform. I plan my schedule to ensure each pet receives proper attention, exercise, and companionship every day. Pets in my care are always supervised and treated like family. I follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, medications, and routines. I maintain a clean, safe, and calm environment, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure at all times.
“Hardy and his daughter were absolutely amazing with Ziggy! From the very first moment, they made sure Ziggy felt safe, comfortable, and right at home. Hardy was so communicative — he called me with updates and sent pictures throughout the stay, which gave me total peace of mind. What really stood out is that this was a last-minute request, and Hardy came through without hesitation. Ziggy genuinely enjoyed every moment of his stay. Highly recommend Hardy to any pet parent looking for someone who truly cares!”

She took cute pictures and kept me abreast of my dog’s urination and bowel movements. She was kind, kept a clean house, had fenced in space outdoors for the dogs to play and get some exercise, movement and sunlight. She was reliable and felt safe with my dog in her care.”
“Mumbo had a great time with Kaylah! Kaylah was excellent about sending updates and coordinating times to meet. She even reached out during the stay when she noticed Mumbo was having a little issue with his leg (a problem he does have occasionally). The leg issue turned out fine but it was great to know Kaylah was paying such close attention to him. We felt very comfortable knowing Mumbo was in such a loving home!”

We received tons of pictures and messages throughout the day and it was great to see how much fun he was having with Quynh (especially in her yard)! Quynh was really great with communication and made the drop off / pick up process super easy. She took great care of him and she will be our go to for future doggy daycare services!”
“We did a trial stay with Gabriella before leaving our dog for a week in November. Kira was walked twice, had lunch, a nap and went on a little car ride. She was very happy when she got home. Gabriella was wonderful with her and it makes us feel much less anxious about leaving her.”
About: I worked with animals for over 20yrs and am experienced with all dog breeds (as well as cats). I am a retired pet stylist who still prefers to spend all my time with dogs of all sizes 😊. I have years of experience with senior & special needs pets, I am CPR certified also. For a small additional fee, I offer some grooming services such as: nail trimming, toothbrushing, ear cleaning, good bath/brush out, shaving the paw pads, trimming around the eye area, and shaving the sanitary areas (butt and private area) Since I've retired, I literally have nothing but free time 24/7. I can't think of any better way to spend that time then to spend it with your pets 😊 Once your pet is dropped off to me for a visit, I pretty much allow them to have total run of the whole house (even if that means sharing my bed 😬). I also have a fenced yard and 2 beautiful parks very close by to me if they prefer
“Christie and Drew we’re so wonderful!! We decided last minute to go to a basketball game on our way through Philly and they took June in like she was their own, gave her so much love and even fed her when we didn’t have dinner for her. They were extremely communicative and sent a ton of pictures, the best dog sitters! Thank you!!!!!”

“Christine was such a help last minute when my sitter canceled on me! My puppy took to her right away and he had so much fun at her house with the other doggies. I felt comfortable right away knowing my pup was in good hands! Very trustworthy and reliable you can deff count on her to take good care of your pet!!”
“Melody was absolutely amazing! I initially booked a last-minute dog-sitting appointment, and she accommodated me with no issues. She kept me updated throughout the day, letting me know when my pup went potty or had a meal, and even helped with crate training. I noticed positive changes in my pup—he was much calmer upon pick-up, which showed how well he was cared for. Melody was incredibly reliable, watching my pup for a full two weeks, and I never once had to worry about his well-being. She even assisted with food changes, which I truly appreciated. I highly recommend Melody to anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog sitter!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Rhea went above and beyond to make sure my pet felt comfortable, loved, and cared for while I was away. She provided regular updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind throughout the stay. It was clear my pet was in great hands and truly enjoyed their time. I highly recommend Rhea to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and reliable sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
