This was our first time using zeewoi and we were a little apprehensive, especially as we were going away for almost 5 weeks, but we really didn’t need to be. Mary and Kevin were fantastic from the start. They had excellent communication and put us at ease straight away. They looked after both our cats with lots of care and we came home to two very happy and content kitties. Mary and Kevin struck the balance just right whilst we were away by keeping us informed of how the cats were and sending pictures of what the cats were up to every couple of days. It was so lovely to know that the cats were enjoying themselves and being so well looked after whilst we were away. Mary and Kevin also looked after our house extremely well and we came back to a very clean and tidy home. We would definitely recommend Mary and Kevin to anyone needing a house sitter and would love for them to sit for us again if they were ever back in the area.

Florence and Robert were outstanding sitters. We asked them to arrive a day early as our guests to learn the routine on our farm. In getting to know them we found them to be good hearted, down to earth people with a love of animals and diligent in learning our routines to care for our poultry, cats and dog as well as our garden and orchard. Not a typical or easy sit. We travelled with ease knowing our critters were being well taken care of. Arriving home, the house was very clean and looked well cared for. The animals were healthy as were the garden and orchard. Out pets missed them when they left – our dog stared down the driveway after them until their car was out of sight. It is nice to find sitters we would like to hang out with and we look forward to having them sit for us again.

I am struggling with naming our top adjective to describe Michael and Jeanne. "Conscientious" will likely be it but then again, "personable," "reliable," "organised," and "animal-loving" are top contenders. If you are reading this review and contemplating inviting this couple to watch your pets, then look no further. We have had a number of excellent house sitters but this pair was next level in terms of the love they showed our cats, Maxx and Nala. When we came back, we could our animals already missed them. These cats, who have never slept with anyone other than us, were getting in bed with them each night -- and that meant climbing stairs! The day before our trip, Nala got an ear infection and had to be put on steroids for asthma. Michael and Jeanne did not sign up for that when the sit was booked but they took it in stride. In the last-minute rush, I relayed that Nala needed her oral steroids morning and night. Michael read the RX label, indicating one dose a day, and contacted the vet to clarify. So you can see why "conscientious" is right up there. They saved Nala from an overdose! We were gone three weeks and they sent us just the right amount of pictures and videos. They bought cat toys (I forgot to put ours out!) and actively engaged with them, including 20-minute massages for Maxx. I truly believed them when they said they fell in love with our fur babies. The house was spotless (which was not important to me but truly appreciated) but I smiled when all six water stations in our yard were filled. They took seriously my love for and the needs of the wildlife in our yard. Our plants were all in good condition as well. Sensing they were "next level" when I met them, I predicted they would want to leave a meal for us upon our return. I asked them not to but they found another way to bow out with class. They made a donation to a nonprofit I work with instead. This I learned from the lovely thank you note they left. I hope they will consider Charles and I friends because we certainly feel that way about them now. What special people. If you book them, treat them well because they are going to do that for you for sure.

Becca was fantastic - we cannot say enough about how great she is as a pet and house sitter and as a human being! Becca committed to the sit 8 months in advance and was great with her responsiveness in communication during the long lead up to the sit. She arrived early and got the low downs on the animals and house stuff prior to us leaving. She woke up crazy early to help us get to the airport and picked us up when we returned, which made the traveling so much easier on our end. She left the house spot-less (and this is no exaggeration), with the linens cleaned, and a wonderful meal waiting for us upon our return. She is an absolute gem of a person with a great sense of humor and a kind and compassionate nature, and she really enjoys the animals in her care. Our dog and cat were very well cared for and totally at ease upon our return. If you are lucky enough to have Becca sit for you, you will be very pleased at how well she does the job!

Kimberly was a wonderful sitter who watched our two cats for us while we were out. She was willing to come a day early to help acclimate herself with the animals, and this was exceedingly helpful in making sure the cats would be comfortable with her during our absence. I would highly recommend Kimberly if you're looking for a responsible, caring sitter.

Florence is everything you want in a cat sitter! We have two cats that need a lot of human attention. One takes multiple medications twice a day and they both are used to eating on their own schedule and having people around so it is always very important to us to find a pet sitter that will be spending a lot of time in the apartment and that doesn't mind being very attentive. We were able to meet Florence before our trip and felt 100% confident that she would take great care of our cats. Florence is comfortable giving medication, she sent us photos and updates and left our apartment spotless. We were so happy that we had her come back the following week when we went away again for a short trip! We will definitely contact Florence again whenever we travel and hope that she is available!

If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy! I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch. I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through. I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats! Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!). I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly, who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer. I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was. Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport. When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook. He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping. He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!). We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands. Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away. He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties). When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me! It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter. He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!

If Macie and Roman ever apply to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the. offer. You will not be disappointed. They are among the top (if not the top) sitter I've ever had and I've been on this site for years. Primarily, they are very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Macie and Roman kept me abreast of their plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk them through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Macie and Roman really care. When they got to my apartment after a very long morning of traveling, I explained the care instructions and they were very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Macie and Roman followed those exactly. Third, Macie and Roman make you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out of hiding very quickly and was snuggling with them and letting them hold him. It was so nice to see the pictures of them all bonding! Macie and Roman have a calming energy towards animals for sure! Macie and Roman were also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 30 minutes. I really appreciated that. Fourth, Roman and Macie will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Macie and Roman also respects your property. We had a room we asked them not to enter and they respected that. In short, Macie and Roman are amazing. I would have them back in a heartbeat. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Ask Macie and Roman for my number.

Danny and Jo did a great job caring for our 3 cats and fish AND lots of plants (and home of course) while we were out of town for 3 weeks. We came back to a very clean house, sheets, and towels all clean and folded and fresh sheets on the bed they were using. The plants were all alive too, which is a first for us (again, we have a lot of plants!). The cats were happy to see us and they were all accounted for (a past sitter lost a cat for a week - they escaped outside as a non-outside cat). Everything was in its place and looked great. We received regular updates (via text) with photos of the cats lounging about which was important for us. Danny asked good questions when they visited us before the sit, and when reviewing our pet/house sitting instructions. The only thing we noticed that was different was that our 2 young cats were a little lighter (not necessarily a bad thing) but we understand that being gone for that length of time can be stressful on our furry family, which almost always affects their eating habits. All in all, we would definitely have them again!

Super nice sitters and extremely flexible. Really enjoyed their company and I only regret that I was too frazzled to chat with them more and get to know them! Kept the house super clean, pets loved them. Dog especially. Had a little problem with my new kitten not meshing well with the older cats (which was not too surprising since cats can be territorial). Pennee was very patient and gave me constant updates and tips. And the older cat was much more calm when I came home. Highly recommend and welcome back anytime!

Always kind and competent taking care of my 3 different cocker spaniels. Totally happy with Liz' service. Have been cared for by Liz now for 6 years...walks, day care, boarding and ALWAYS excellent care. For cat at home and dog all services.
Liz is awesome - super reliable/professional and my dog is obsessed with her. When he was a puppy she would help with his training and reinforce everything we were teaching him. Now he goes for quality walks with her and comes back tuckered - quite an accomplishment for an Australian Shepherd! We are so lucky to have her!!
My sister in an incredibly strong and trustworthy woman❣️ She's fun, happy, supportive, extremely responsible- and GREAT with kids and animals❣️❣️ She's the best mother I know, and definitely the best pet sitter/ pet nanny. She's been taking care of business and holding things down in East Falls for a while. Lizzie is extremely friendly and affable and beloved. She loves her life and her company. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED & Please Respect❣️❤️🐩🐕🦮🐕🦺🐈🐈⬛🐇
We love Pamper and play! We have used their service for walking our dog and for housesitting. In both cases we found Liz and her team to be reliable, responsible and loving toward our dog. I also love how we can book a dog walk once in a while when we realize we're going to be gone for a long day. Liz is as happy and responsive to do a oner-off walk as to be coming regularly. The folks that housesit for P&P are wonderful. (TJ is great!_ I can tell they really bond with our dog. I highly recommend Pamper & Play. You won't regret it!
Liz is an incredible pet sitter! She loves others pets and cares for them like they're a part of her family! Wouldn't want anyone else to take care of our two big dogs and many cats! Not to mention our bunny and reptiles! She's amazing!
I can’t say enough good things about this service. My dog was well cared for and she even took her at short notice. In fact she sent me feedback while I was away so I knew that my dog was ok. My beloved Phoebe just had to be put down and I received a sympathy card. I was so touched. Liz truly loves animals and provides a wonderful service for pet owners. Very caring and competent. I highly recommend!
I had an amazing experience with Liz every time that I've asked her to watch my pup! I love that she offers pick up and drop off service for overnight visits. She could not make her services anymore convenient. Love!
Very professional. We had Liz take care of our 2 dogs and 4 cats, in our own home, while away for our summer vacation in Myrtle Beach. They and we loved her!!! She stopped by 3x a day to make sure our furry family members were happy and healthy. Liz even went the extra mile of vacuuming to make sure we didn't come home to extra fluffy carpet due to summer shedding. She loved the animals as if they were her own, and spoiled them as if so. I think they were more upset to see Liz go then us when we left for vacation lol. She also kept us updated daily with how everybody was doing. They didn't seem to miss us one bit 😍
I have two German Shepherds and was dog sitting for a friend when I had a family emergency. I was needed at the hospital ASAP. I was nervous about these dogs being together and I needed someone fast that could handle the job. I had heard about Liz from a friend. I can't express my gratitude enough. She showed up as quickly as she could. She walked them, fed them, managed to have them all tuckered out by the time I got home (not an easy task) AND all three of them were snuggling on the same bed. As far as my experience goes, Liz is a miracle worker! I will definitely be relying on her services from now on.
Liz has been awesome for me and Leo. She is super reliable and gives you peace of mind during long work days. Took Leo on 30 minute walks every week day for over a year. I'd recommend her to anyone in the area. Thanks Liz!

I literally wish I could give Paws and Claws 10 stars. We are incredibly lucky to be able to work with a kind, thorough, hard-working team of walkers and sitters. Our pup, Delilah, can take a while to warm up to new people (to say the least!), but Stephanie, Kelly, Grady, Clio, Traci, and Grace are incredibly understanding and patient with her. My favorite part is reading about the highlights of Delilah’s walks as well as which of our 4 cats make a guest appearance 😂 The communication has always been crystal-clear and the booking process is incredibly easy. Most recently we used the house sitting service over Christmas and the updates were just as jolly as our holiday! Thank you, thank you, P&C!
Philly paws & claws took great care of my dog while I was on vacation. They even sent me pictures of my dog daily. My dog looked very happy in every photo. They took my dog on many walks & gave him the attention he needed. Highly recommend this company for all of your dog needs.
We had Paws and Claws do in-home visits once a day for our kitty, Ziggy, while we were away for the holidays. They were fantastic! Stephanie and her team are so convenient and professional! In addition to taking such good care of Ziggy, they also sent us daily updates with pictures to let us know how he was doing. Highly recommend!
I've been using Philly Paws Claws for years for drop in visits for my iguana, dog boarding, dog taxi, and a couple walks. They're consistently A+ service, sending pictures of your pet, on time, easy to schedule with, and just fabulous all the way around. They're a bit more expensive than some but the reliability and quality is awesome. The taxi service is great to combine with boarding because then you don't have to do drop offs or pick ups when you're busy trying to get out of town or arriving back after hours. Thank you Philly Paws Claws!
Stephanie and her team at PP&C have provided incredible care for our puppy since we discovered her services earlier in the summer. Our pup goes to daycare a couple of times a week at Stephanie's residence and has been boarded with her for a long weekend as well. We also tried their grooming services, which exceeded my expectations. I've not had the opportunity to meet all of her staff, but they are diligent about sending photo updates with each service so that we can see our pup going on a walk or playing with his doggy friends. Our pup is always excited to go to daycare and comes home appropriately calm instead of being wired or overstimulated (which we appreciate!). I highly recommend PP&C for anyone's pet care needs!
Paws and Claws is hands down our favorite dog sitting services in Philly! Our dog always come back so happy, and not stressed out at all!
In early August I got the opportunity to help Philly's Paws & Claws out on the 'Dog Day of Summer'. I have to give credit where credit is due, All of the employees were beyond helpful as well as very cautious, caring, and friendly with all the wonderful fur faces that we saw! From what I experienced, this team is all about the hard work and communication but you can tell they do it all for the love of the animals. Lovely to see such a wonderful team of people offering amazing and helpful services to the public. In the future if I were to need service, I would trust them with all of my animals! :)
They have been so great watching my dog. He can be a little needy and high energy but he has so much fun when he gets to go to daycare and he has the biggest smile on his face when he gets home. They were also super great an flexible when my flight got canceled and I needed them to keep my dog another day!
We are so happy with the care and attention our pup, Ava, received at her long weekend stay with PPC. They kept us updated with pictures and texts about how she was doing. Would 10/10 recommend using their services!! Our girl clearly got a lot of TLC while she was there and came home happy and healthy!
My Golden Doodle, Douglas, is always so well taken care of and happy with this team. They've cared for him numerous times, and each time he comes back to use happy and tired! They are very communicative and clearly love all kinds of animals. I will continue to use them and highly recommend.

Best pet sitter ever! Highly recommend for every occasion! My pets are so happy to see her every time!
I can't recommend Fishtown Furbabies enough! Stephanie took care of my cat Stretch when I was away on vacation. I got constant updates and photos letting me know that my buddy was being well taken care of and was in good hands. My mind was immediately put at ease that I had done the right thing by entrusting the safety and well being of my cat to her. Do not hesitate for a moment trusting your furry friend to Fishtown Furbabies!!!
Steph is THE BEST with our 3 furbabies including our very challenging pitbull, one mischievous cat and one very shy cat. It's such a relief to know that they are well-cared for when we are away and we can really relax and not worry about them. It's always a bonus when Steph sends us cute pics or post cute pics of our furbabies too. She loves our furbabies like they are her own and I trust her implicitly.
Steph is amazing with animals. She watched my senior kitties, gave them the extra attention and snuggles they needed and even sends photos to you while you're away which always helps when separated from your babies. Highly recommended, very professional, friendly and awesome to do business with! ❤ Thank you Steph!!
We've been using Fishtown Furbabies for 4 years and can't recommend enough. I love getting the daily pet updates from them when they're watching my cat!
The Fishtown Furbabe crew is incredible, trustworthy, dedicated, understanding, and give our babies all the love in the world. Communication is excellent and the service is outstanding 🖤 …
Steph is the bestest!! I know my kitties, Damien and Angel, have a great time when she is around!!
Great business owned by a great person. Treats animals like they were her own, and they love her!
Kind and loving to all pets big and small

The Owner Don truly cares about all the dogs in his business. I am a colleague of his and had contact over a mutual client. Don is professional, passionate about what he does and receptive. Most importantly, he is open minded (they say the only thing 2 trainers agree on is what the 3rd is doing wrong 😆) As a fellow trainer and kennel owner, just based off of today's interaction, I would absolutely endorse his program.
The Towne Barker is awesome! The owner truly loves dogs and takes great care of all who spend time with him. He is also a great trainer - My dog was older and only had a couple basic skills- Don had him doing a new skill in under 20 minutes of working with him! I highly recommend this place!
Our dogs love going to the Towne Barker - they can’t wait to get to “camp” everyday. Afterwards, they always come home happy and tired. Don’s expertise has really helped to train our very energetic puppy. Don is the best and really does treat each dog as if they were his own. Towne Barker is the only place we trust with our dogs and I would highly recommend it to any dog owner!
We've been leaving our dog with Don since they were at the old location in Northern Liberties. He's super flexible with time and even payments. Towne Barker is way cheaper than all the other dog daycares I looked at in the area. Our dog comes home tires and chill after being there and he's very friendly with our dog and even me as a customer. I would definitely recommend the Towne Barker if you need a place for you dog to hang and play while you're at work.
We love this place! Don treats every dog like it's his own. The prices are great, the place is clean and my dog loves being dropped off there to play with his friends. When I visit the city I love knowing that my dog is taken care of by someone we trust. Don is best! I highly recommend.
My dog Ringo has seizures and needs a lot of care (plus medication 4 times a day). Don does a fantastic job with him and Ringo always comes home happy and even better behaved than normal! I recommend the towne barker to all dog owners. The boarding service is also great!
Friendly owner who will love your pet like his own. My Buster loves to play with friends here!
We love The Towne Barker!! I feel absolutely confident leaving my pup here knowing she is loved and taken good care of! She loves going, obviously has a great time, and we never have trouble with her missing us! The humans there are pretty awesome too! LOL
Took my dog here after my previous doggy daycare closed due to Covid. The pups have a more structured day, with both physical and mental exercise. You can tell Don really cares about these dogs (and the fact that he is a certified dog trainer is definitely a bonus)!
Bottom Line - STAY AWAY! I went out to check out the Town Barker facilities with my dog. I was considering boarding him for the weekend, and the owner suggested that I come out so he could evaluate my dog and have me sign some paperwork. I have a small dog (20 lb) male terrier mix. Upon entering the store, I gagged at the smell and had to fight the urge to vomit. The place smelled horribly of feces and urine! Giving him the benefit of doubt I continued into the store. He welcomed me, and then gave me a form to sign, a release from harm form. There were at least a dozen dogs inside a gated area. Of course they were "exited" at a new dogs arrival and were barking and actively running to and fro in their enclosed area. When my dog was brought into the area he was immediately surrounded and terrified. Don was with him and was trying to introduce him to the pack, but even I know that dogs are territorial and the proper way to introduce dogs is to do it on neutral ground. When I asked Don what the daily routine was for the dogs, when he walked them, played with them, he stated he did not do any of those things. He said they get "free play" all day long and he just watches them. They are not walked or exercised during the day and are allowed to defecate and urinate in the room! This is certainly not a habit I want my dog to learn! He then asked if I signed the release? I told him no, that I would not be needing his services, and thanked him for his time

I could go on forever about how much Tails & Ales has meant to me and my dog, Captain. Paige and Ryan truly care for every dog as their own. They pour their hearts into making sure each pup has a great experience while keeping their humans updated throughout the day. They are flexible, dependable, professional, compassionate, and the biggest dog lovers I have ever met. I simply cannot imagine life in Philly without them! I absolutely recommend T&A to anyone looking for high-quality pet care from high-quality people.
Tails and Ales is great! We had to take our 5 month old goldendoodle to Tails and Ales for daycare and overnight boarding for the first time. Paige provided updates and pictures throughout the day, and our pup loved being in their house and playing with the other dogs. Since it was his first night away from our house, he was barking at night and couldn't go to sleep, so Paige comforted him at 4:30 AM and let us know how he was doing. I wouldn't hesitate to take our pup there again for day care, and I highly recommend them!
Tales & Ales is the BEST. I have used them for daycare as well as boarding. I am so grateful for Paige & Ryan who provide the best care for my Lily who is a sensitive pup who requires love and affection. As a rescue pup, Lily can have separation anxiety and can sometimes have anxiety in new situations. Paige & Ryan made sure she had a great first day and ever since Lily runs towards them when she gets picked up ...the tail wags a hundred miles a minute and she doesn't even say "bye Mom". I feel like I'm giving Lily a vacation when I send her to Tales & Ales :-) They are also very reliable and always accommodating.
My fur babies, Arlo and Coco, are regulars at Tails & Ales. We have used them for daycare and also boarding. Paige and Ryan are not only accommodating and reliable, they are practically second parents to my babies. They will truly care for your dog as if your pup is their own. We are always kept in the loop with cute pictures, bowel habits (every dog owner knows how important this is, and everything in between. I could go on and on about how wonderful they are, but I’ll leave it at this — we are forever grateful to T&A for loving our dogs as much as we do.
Doggie daycare with Paige and Ryan has been the best thing ever for our pup Cody! He is super energetic and it has helped him blow of some steam and learn to settle with other dogs. Paige and Ryan are extremely thoughtful, accommodating and knowledgeable about dog training/behavior. They are great at checking in with us throughout the day and we never have to worry about Cody when he is there. Thank you thank you tails and ales! We would be much more stressed without you in our lives!
Paige&Ryan were fantastic. Our almost 2 year old rambunctious goldendoodle stayed with them for a long weekend. They sent perfectly detailed updates right when you needed them the most. And he definitely got the exercise, stimulation and cuddles he is used to if not more! (Been sleeping since we got home). Will use Tails and Ales again.
Amazing!!! I could not praise Ryan and Paige more. Not only was my pup Bentley completely comfortable but I felt comfortable the whole time and was able to fully enjoy my time away. From their quick responses to my inquiries, to sharing his day to day activity, having all the supplies he needed (only having to bring food) and even dropping my dog off at the end of his stay, I could not ask for more. I will continue to use them for my boarding needs and would recommend them to anyone.

Waggy Weddings service by Waggy Little Rascals made having our dog part of our day not only possible but effortless. Oriana was kind, very responsive and even customized a pricing-package for our specific needs. Maddy (our dog's date/walker) was incredible and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our dog was in safe hands after his participation in our wedding. During the Meet and Greet, Maddy and our dog became immediate besties and on day-of Maddy collaborated with our wedding planner to communicate status updates to make sure we were focused on our celebration and not worrying about him. Our dog stole the show at our ceremony and Maddy even assisted our photographer to get great photos of our boy on our big day. After our ceremony, Maddy transported our dog back to our hotel and tucked him in for the night. If you're getting married in the Philly area and have a four-legged family member, contact Waggy Little Rascals to help make your special day perfect!
Waggy little rascals has been amazing dog walking (and sitting) service for us. They are always super reliable, responsive, and really make us feel comfortable that our dog is in good hands. They are very communicative during the booking process and always try to fit our schedule, even when things pop up last minute. We have used a number of dog walking services between NYC and Philly over the past 7 years and Waggy little rascals is really one of the best we’ve ever had!
I'm writing this review after having Waggy Little Rascals walk our dogs for ten months, several times per week. We have two five year old dogs who need walking while my husband and I are at work. The Waggy Little Rascals team has been excellent with them. They love our dogs with care, send us great photos and detailed reports, and give our dogs the special care they need if something is wrong (such as one time our dog had a suspicious bowel movement and they sent a photo so we could show the vet, or taking the dogs to a safer spot when an unleashed dog was nearby). This gives us peace of mind as our dogs love squirrels, birds, and can require full attention when walking. Logistically, it's so easy to schedule the walks in the app, and the owner Angela has been so understanding if we've had unexpected changes to our schedule. When they train new walkers, they always do a walk with another walker who knows our dogs and home already, which has led to seamless transitions. I am so grateful to have found this company. We were worried about returning to an in-office work schedule following the pandemic, but having Waggy Little Rascals made it an easy transition and we are still with them almost a year later!
We've been using Waggy Little Rascals to walk our dog for over a year now and can't say enough good things about them. Great people who care about the best interest of your pets. Will give them the love and attention they deserve. Professional, Quick to respond and very accommodating.
I cannot, ever, express how much i love WLR. I tell them all the time. My dogs are my babies and they can be kind of quirky and everyone at WLR who has worked with them has been amazing! Kind, flexible, reliable. I truly couldn’t live without them. And my girls LOVE them! One bajillion/10 couldn’t love them more!
Waggy Little Rascals continually goes above and beyond for my dog. They’ve been incredibly helpful during my first year of pet ownership. Before they started walking her, they came to my apartment for a meet and greet, and could not have been more skilled and professional while handling my initially shy and reactive pup. I appreciate that they took the time to get to know her before committing to working with her. After each walk, they give detailed reports (with photos!), which are reassuring. She has really blossomed socially, which is in no small part thanks to Waggy. When they opened the daycare, I jumped at the chance to sign her up. Again, before she joined the daycare roster, she spent some time trying it out so they could determine if she would be a good fit. She absolutely loves spending the day there and comes home happy and tired. Waggy has been wonderful every step of the way—through schedule changes, harness trial/error, and health issues. I am sure they’ll extend the same kindness and excellence to your pet!
We used the Waggy Weddings service for our November wedding, and it was the best decision. They picked up our dog Penny from our dog sitter, brought her to the wedding in an adorable dress they provided, and handled her like a pro. Angela and Oriana were responsive during the planning process and arrived on time. After the ceremony and a few pictures, Penny went back to the sitters. It took all the stress out of this important part of our wedding, and it wouldn't have been the same without her! She stole the show!
We have had and continue to have a great experience with WGL. Our dog Cora loves her walks with them, and we really appreciate the walk report and pictures. It helps put us at ease to know she is in good hands while we are gone. They are very professional and clearly care about the well being of their clients and their employees. We also really appreciate their flexibility and ability to accommodate walks outside of our usual schedule. Highly recommend them!
Best dog walkers and sitters in the world. They've gone the extra mile, including caring so well for our dog when she was sick and beginning to decline. They even manage to handle our ornery cat. They are kind people, great with pets, and provide great service. I recommend Waggy Little Rascals extremely highly!
I have been nothing but impressed since using this dog walking service. The 2 walkers I have had (Maddy & Alyssa) are extremely friendly, attentive and communitive. I always feel like my dog is in great hands when using these walkers during long work days. Definitely would recommend for anyone in need of walking service in the Philly area.

Our 7 month old lab puppy was in great hands with Caleb! He sent us a bunch of photos and kept us up to date on how she was doing. She had a blast! We highly recommend Caleb! Side note: Caleb might have a future as a dog photographer. See photo that he took that my wife and I now use as our phone background.
Caleb was recommended to us by our dear friends and we have never considered anyone else sitting our pupper (Shifu) ever since. Caleb is so great with dogs, takes such good care and loves them all so much. I would recommend Caleb to you if you’re looking to trust someone with your pup. Be rest assured that your pup will have the best time at Caleb’s and will even make lots of friends there.
Caleb is great! I was able to enjoy my vacation and know that my pets were in the best care possible! All the pics and videos were greatly appreciated!
I needed someone I could really trust to watch my dog Bowie. Caleb took such good care of him and sent me many pictures which put me at ease. I now wouldn’t trust Bowie with anyone else! I feel comfortable leaving the city knowing Bowie is in good hands and is having a fun time at Caleb’s. Highly recommend!!
We just moved to Philly and we are so lucky that we found Caleb! Not only he takes great care of our pup (Fuller), he also recommends us to so many great spots that we could take our pup. Fuller absolutely loves Caleb - you can tell by the intensity of the tail wag when he sees Caleb. This is a photo of Fuller taking a nap at Caleb’s place. We like that it was crate free so Fuller learned how to be in the house!
I highly recommend 215petcare for all of your dog walking and dog sitting needs! Caleb has been my reliable and wonderful dog walker for years. My 3 very active pitties absolutely love him! Things can be hectic with my work schedule, but I know I can depend on Caleb’s flexibility to make sure my dogs get a nice walk with playtime while I am gone. He has even been able to stop by on shorter notice when I am out longer than I expected to be. It’s reassuring to know you have a dog walker that truly cares for your pet as much as you do, which is completely true of Caleb. I love all of the nice photos he sends of my dogs from their walks too! I recommend him to everyone and will undoubtedly continue with him for the future!!
Caleb is super reliable and you can tell he loves the dogs he takes care of and they love him. We've used him for 3 years and our dog gets so excited when she sees him coming up the street. Offers walks and day care which is great since our schedule changes on a weekly basis. He is more organized than we are most of the time. Would highly recommend!
Can't say enough about Caleb and 215Petcare. I've have been using Caleb for all my pet walking/sitting needs for a number of years now. From the very first time I met Caleb it was evident how much he loved dogs and how passionate he was about providing nothing but the best care. I trust Caleb with the care of my two pups completely...he treats them like they are his own and even checks in on them during times we haven't seen him in a while. My pups absolutely love spending time with him and his dogs. His place is like a second home to them. Highly recommend Caleb to anyone, he truly has become a part of our family.
Caleb shows genuine affection for the dogs in his care. We recently left our two older dogs with Caleb for 10 days. He regularly sent updates and photos. I highly recommend Caleb and already have requested another 10 day stay in January.
Caleb is so good with my dog! He was very patient as she learned to trust him (she developed a bit of separation anxiety during the pandemic). She clearly adores him now. Caleb is also extremely organized and reliable: always confirms appointments, let’s me know his ETA to pick her up and drop her back, and is easy to communicate with. I can’t recommend him highly enough!

Amazingly wonderful dog walking service- their rates are reasonable, schedules flexible, and they even come to your home to stay with your baby while you're away!!! I've told my friends about Philly Bow Wow and would do so again. The other reviewer must not be a real client or have the wrong company. Can't recommend these folks enough.
Quality and professional pet services. Our dogs love Zivit and we couldn’t recommend her more to watch our beloved fur children.

We’ve been using Doggie Play and Stay for about a year. Amanda is our pup’s home away from home. We have a highly anxious, high energy dog with high activity needs. We feel reassured through communication and photos during his stay that he is relaxed and getting plenty of love and attention, and he always comes home tired from playing which is a double win for any dog parent. It has always been very difficult for us to find someone who is patient and loving enough to watch our high needs boy, and are beyond grateful we found Amanda. Cannot recommend her enough!
Amanda was amazing with our dogs. I’m certain the younger dog kept her on her toes, but she handled him with love and firmness which he requires. They had a great time there and were calm during the car ride home - which is pretty remarkable because they are typically super anxious when the we’ve been away. I would absolutely recommend her.
We’ve had Amanda watch our 1-year-old shepherd mix, Mooney, a few times now and he has always come back to us happy and tired! Communication has been very clear and Amanda sends helpful reminders of what to bring with us. Also nice that she has crates at her place so we don’t have to worry about bringing ours! We’ll absolutely be sending Mooney back to her soon :)
Amanda has been great and my puppy loves staying with her! Will be going back. All of my dog’s needs are met and she comes back tired and happy! There is nothing else I could want. Amanda sends regular updates as well so I am always informed as to what my puppy is up to!
Amanda is the best dog sitter! I have a 9 month old anxious puppy and have been with her since day 1. Thanks to Amanda my pup is well socialized with dogs, humans and kids. I owe everything to you Amanda! And thanks to you can leave and go on a trip knowing my doggo will be even happier with her :)
I've been bringing my dogs to Amanda for a while now. She takes excellent care and keeps me updated with photos while she has the pups. My dog absolutely loses his mind when he sees me gather his "going away" bag because he knows that he's going to see his buddy Amanda (and her child who apparently is absolutely enamored with him) and cannot contain his excitement. Nobody I trust more with my furry friend.
We absolutely love Amanda! I have been using her for boarding and daycare for the last 2 years when I’m away and my two dogs love going to her house! She’s attentive and loves them like her own!
We’ve been sending our dogs here for a while and they always come home happy! The owner sends us updates throughout our time away and has been helpful with our high energy dog!
Amanda did a great job watching my dog and sent updates to keep me in the loop on what they were up to!
I would so highly recommend Amanda! She has been absolutely amazing with my dog! I love that she provides updates and pictures throughout the day. Louie my dog absolutely loves going to her place and can’t wait to get there most days! It gives me great peace of mind to leave Lou with her so would recommend her to everyone!

**Perfect Doggie Day Care Experience** I recently found the perfect doggie day care for my pup Ace, and I couldn't be happier with it! From the moment we arrived, the friendly staff made us feel welcome. They greeted my pup with genuine enthusiasm, which immediately put both of us at ease. The facility itself was clean, spacious, and filled with toys and activities that kept my dog entertained throughout the day. What really stood out to me was how attentive the staff were to my dog's needs. They took the time to understand his personality and preferences, ensuring he was comfortable and happy during his stay. I received regular updates and even photos of him playing and socializing with other dogs, which reassured me that he was having a great time. Overall, this doggie day care has been a fantastic find. It's clear that they prioritize the well-being and happiness of every dog that comes through their doors. I feel confident leaving my pup in their care, knowing he's not only safe but also enjoying himself thoroughly. I highly recommend this place to any dog owner looking for a caring and professional environment for their furry friend.
I am writing to express my deep concern and disappointment regarding the recent incident involving my dog Kash at your daycare facility. It has come to my attention that my dog was mishandled while under your care, and I am extremely troubled by this news. As a pet owner, I entrust my dog's well-being to your establishment with the expectation that they will be treated with the utmost care and respect. However, learning that my dog was not handled properly is both distressing and unacceptable. Dogs are vulnerable creatures who rely on us to provide them with a safe and nurturing environment, and it is disheartening to know that this trust was violated. It is imperative that all staff members are properly trained in handling and caring for dogs, and that strict protocols are in place to prevent any mistreatment or negligence this was the second time he was attacked and this time the men were shaking him up kicking the dogs just nasty I’m pressing charges they need cameras in there ether on here lying because they can’t see what goes on when they walk away be careful leaving your dogs alone with the men of the daycare !!!!!!
Jake loves Andrew’s! We don’t go often since I work from home, he usually goes for boarding if I have a quick trip. He gets tons of play time with the various dogs there. It’s such a good spot, wish they had a bigger space for all the cute client’s. Wish there were more neighborhoods businesses like this close to my home we would come more often.
Simply the best. I have been using Andrew's Pack LLC since he started his business. Andrew and his team have taken great care of my cats when we are away, for the day or a couple of weeks!
We dropped our puppy off at 7am and when we came to pick him up he didn’t want to leave. We were nervous at first but we have all the confidence in the world in Andrew and his team. We’ve been using Andrew’s Pack ever since and can’t recommend him enough.
THE BEST!! My dog is nervous with strangers so finding a place to take him for daycare/boarding wasn't easy. But he immediately took to Andrew. Andrew employs the most incredible humans, all of which truly understand dogs and care about their wellbeing. They know each dog's demeanor and personality and manage them perfectly to make each dog feel safe and comfortable. My dog loves going to Andrew's!
We take our 2 year old labradoodle to Andrew's Pack and she always comes home happy and tired. The staff really seems to care about the animals they take care of, even remembering my dog's name and routine after only a handful of visits. Knowing that our pup is being well taken care of is peace of mind.
Great place to board your dog. Andrew is a great owner, loves animals and treats people with respect and dignity. My dog literally tries to break the door down to get in. She has so much fun at this place. Best boarding in Philly period!
Dropping off your pup isn't easy but I never have any doubts leaving my dog with Andrew and his world class team for the day or overnight. The prices are affordable, the dogs have space, and the team is always very gentle with the dogs and even accommodating for special needs. I am so thankful for Andrew and his team, they have always been happy to have my pup and she loves spending time with them!
I started to bring my dog to Andrew’s pack a while ago and even before I had her I’ve always seen andrew and other dog walkers at all times of day taking care of the dogs. They are a great group of people who have the chill vibe that is needed to take care of all types of energy dog. I was even worried because my puppy can be a little crazy at home but Andrew and everyone there knows how to handle any type of situation. I suggest Andrew’s pack to everyone in our neighborhood!
