“My Bichpoo seemed to fit right in with Hollie and her dog. She clearly knows dogs and meets their individual needs. I was very appreciative that Hollie accommodated all the routines of my dog.

“Ryan and his family were wonderful hosts for our dog Cleo! She’d been home with us without a break for the last 2 years while we were working from home and not traveling. They made her comfortable in their home immediately - taking her for walks, letting her hang outside with them as Ryan did yard work, etc. And we were relieved and relaxed while traveling knowing she was in such good hands!

About: Hi there! Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile and consider me as a care taker for your animal while you are away! I have grown up with dogs (and the occasional bird & fishies). For the past 12 years, I've lived with and visited my best bud Zeke at my parent's house. I would love to have a dog of my own in the future, however for now I am hoping and so happy to take care of other's loved ones during the week and on weekends! I'm an active individual and enjoy taking dogs on walks, for car rides and the occasional ice cream or pup cup. I will give your animal all the love that they've come to expect because they certainly deserve it! Please reach out with any questions, and thanks again for thinking of me! :) I currently work full time (9-5) Monday-Friday, however I usually work from home Friday's and am available on weekends for full time pet care. During the week, I am able to visit (feed, walk, take out for bathroom needs) early in the morning (between 5:30 am to 7 am and in the evening (between 6-9 pm) In my current apartment, pets are welcome visitors. However, I am also happy to visit your home multiple times a day and stay with your pet when needed, especially if you are close! I work only 20 minutes away so I would have ample time in the morning and especially in the evening to stop by to feed, toilet, walk and play with your pet! This is especially great if your pet doesn’t do well in a new environment; I am happy to provide them with everything they’d need in a place where they feel the most comfortable!

About: About Me Hi, I’m Ann! I work from home and truly enjoy having a furry companion by my side throughout the day. I know how important it is for dogs to get daily walks and fresh air—so I make sure every pup in my care gets plenty of exercise and fun, rain or shine. Honestly, I think I enjoy our walks just as much as the dogs do! Why Choose Me? What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong passion for animals and the deep bond I’ve always shared with my own pets. I grew up surrounded by animals, which taught me to understand their needs and emotions on a deeper level. I believe every dog deserves personalized care, lots of affection, and a safe, loving environment. My Home I share my home with two friendly cats who prefer relaxing in their own space when we have visiting dogs. This helps keep the environment calm and comfortable for everyone. To make sure each guest gets the care and attention they deserve, I only board up to two dogs at a time. Your pup will enjoy a cozy home setting, plenty of personal attention, and lots of cuddles. I can’t wait to meet your dog and welcome them into our little family! ~Ann I am self employed and work full time at home ensuring that your pet will get the attention they deserve and need. They have easy access to the backyard as well. The backyard is fenced in. I have never allowed my dogs to sleep on my bed nor sofa but they have their own ottoman to stay close to me while I watch TV and the comfort of a dog bed and/ or crate. My home is peaceful ☺️
“Rachel was fantastic! My daughter and I were touring colleges in the area and needed a place for our dog during the tours. Jiminy was spoiled with cuddles and he definitely had a great time!”

“Electric & Crescent are awesome. Odin had a great time with them and their lovely cats! The communication was great, they're easy going, they sent pictures constantly on how Odin was doing and I couldn't be happier to see him enjoy playing and cuddling with them. Odie is definitely coming back! Thank you!”
About: I've cared for animals my whole life. I grew up around, Australian Shepherds, retriever mixes, rescues, senior dogs, puppies, sick dogs and I've spent years riding and working at barns. Barn life teaches you things that carry over to dogs: you show up on time no matter the weather, you learn to read body language before a problem starts, and you stay calm with strong, anxious, or high-energy personalities. [I have experince giving medications, including deworming and any pills.] During the day I work remotely as a business analyst for a healthcare consulting firm, and I bring the same habits to pet care: clear communication, close attention to detail, and following instructions exactly. You'll get photos and a quick update after every visit, so you never have to wonder how things are going. I'm living at home right now after graduating college, and pet sitting lets me spend more of my week with dogs while earning some extra cash to help my mom out around the house. It's something I genuinely look forward to. Because I work remotely, I'm local and nearby on most days. That gives me room for morning and evening walks, midday drop-ins, and other unique times. I keep my Rover calendar current, so if a time shows as open, I'm truly available. I'm also happy to set up a recurring schedule so your dog gets the same sitter every week. Safety and trust come first. Before any booking, I am happy to do a meet and greet so you and your dog can get comfortable with me and I can learn their routine firsthand. I check harnesses and leashes before every walk, never let a dog off-leash without your permission, and double-check doors, gates, and locks before I leave. I'll have your vet and emergency contact on hand. If anything seems off, even something small like a skipped meal, I'll let you know right away.

“Dipper’s first doggie day care was with Tina and she did an amazing job at communicating with us through out the day and making our pup feel comfortable being away from home for the first time!”
“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!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and am also comfortable caring for cats. I’ve provided pet care for neighbors and have experience managing different personalities and energy levels. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience working at a veterinary hospital and a zoo, where I learned safe handling, how to recognize signs of stress or illness, and how to maintain proper care routines. I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable, and I’m especially comfortable with active dogs as well as providing gentle care for younger or more sensitive pets. I am also quite the green-thumb if you need your plants watered!🌸🪴🌼🌱🌻 My schedule is very open and flexible, which allows me to easily accommodate pet care throughout the day and week. I’m available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits, and I can adjust my routine to meet each pet’s specific needs, including walks, feeding times, and check-ins. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in my client’s home. I am very attentive and detail-oriented, and I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions. I ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure and supervise pets closely during play. I pay close attention to behavior and can recognize signs of stress or illness. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep routines consistent to help pets feel comfortable and safe.
“Nico has been great. Tessa is so happy when he comes to the door to get her, and she's tired when she gets home. That's always a good sign. He gives her the exercise she needs and he obviously knows and loves dogs. I highly recommend Nico.”
“We’ll be booking Daphne again! She was able to help us out to walk our two senior dogs with short notice. She was quick to respond to messages, arrived on time for the walk, and went above and beyond walking our newer adopted dog whose leash manners are a work in progress. In the app, we got a picture and update after her drop in/walk. Our dogs were clearly in very good hands. Can’t ask for anything more than that!”
“Alexandra was absolutely amazing! She was able to help us with walking our dog on very short notice while we were sick. Because of this we couldn't do a proper meeting but she made me feel at ease which is hard in itself. She was so good with my somewhat anxious & animal reactive pup. He's a tough critic but warmed up to her. He got so excited to see her every day which shows how kind she was to him. I don't trust many people with Major but she will be our first call if & when we need her services. She was great to communicate with which I really appreciate. I also enjoyed seeing his pictures on his walk & the little description of their walk. Bottom line I highly recommend Alexandra.”
“Helena went above and beyond! I reached out last minute because I was stuck at work and she was able to walk my dog. She took the time to make sure my dog was comfortable and familiar with her before they went for a walk. She also refilled his water bowl! My dog is very timid and shy with new people but he warmed to Helena with just a few treats.”
“Craig is great!! Always here on time and Higgins, my terrier, gets new route each time. This evening walk relieves a lot of stress for me and my husband- knowing that we can rely on Craig.”

About: Hi! I’m a local dog lover in the Bryn Mawr/Main Line area offering dog walking and in-home pet sitting. I am currently focusing on dog walking as I transition and build my business I’m transitioning into retirement, which gives me a flexible schedule and lets me focus on what I enjoy most—spending time with dogs and making sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away or busy. I know every dog has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to get to know each one so they feel comfortable with me right away. Light check-ins, feeding, and morning potty breaks or walks for house sitting clients. ⸻ 🌤 Midday My main dog walking window in the Bryn Mawr/Main Line area. Walks are calm, unhurried, and tailored to each dog’s energy level. ⸻ 🌇 Afternoon Drop-in visits or additional walks if needed, plus companionship time for house sitting stays. ⸻ 🌙 Evening Feeding, evening walks, and making sure pets are settled and comfortable for the night. ⸻ Because I’m transitioning into retirement, I’m able to keep my schedule flexible and focus on providing consistent, attentive care without rushing. I take dogs on long walks. I do have a crate in my home, but typically if I am leaving I set up a bed and den like atmosphere in my second floor laundry room which I gate do the dog stays safe. I run an Airbnb in my third floor so while I can watch dogs in my home, in house at the dog’s home is preferable. I am extremely safety conscious and when I have dogs over I try to keep them in my sight at all times. If they love cuddling, they will get tons of cuddles from me

“We highly recommend Brian! Brian was very attentive in caring for our dog. She was nervous as it was her first time being left with someone else but Brian and his wife were very kind and supportive and provided regular updates. We would definitely use them again!”
“She is a perfect!!! I have a 7yrs old small chihuahua and she usually never let other people touch her and my dog let Ms Thalita hug her kiss her too. Also she feed her perfectly and my dog had a lot enjoy with Thalita and her family. She is a best”
“Perfect furry baby sitter. She was kind, friendly, and took excellent care of our Benjamin Franklin. We had no worries while we were away, because we knew he was in good hands .. Will absolutely book with Elaina again.”
“Gregory was very responsive to my last minute request for boarding. My dog is little and anxious, and I was not sure how she would do with another dog as large as Koda, Gregory’s dog. But Koda turned out to be very well trained and had a lovely calm demeanor. Maya was very comfortable and I will definitely be using Gregory again!”
“Donte was great with our 1.5yo Great Dane! We felt comfortable leaving him for a week and we were even able to add on some training to work on his leash skills while we were away.”
“Dolly was wonderful with our two pups, gave frequent updates, sent photos and was willing to accommodate our last minute request as a possible extension of stay! Highly recommend!!”
