Dog Sitters in Merchantville, NJ

I am so grateful for Anthony’s pet sitting services. I am an NP and he watches my doodle while I am at work. This is a tremendous help to me. Also, my dog is always visibly excited when he sees Anthony. He does a great job. Thank you Anthony!

My old guy Handsome Hank just spent the long weekend with Anthony! He came home clean and a super happy pup! After some awful stints at various borders, it was such a relief to see Hank properly taken care of! Thanks Anthony!! Highly recommend!

I recently adopted a year-old white Shepard who came from an abusive home. Despite his strong distrust of people, Anthony was able to provide him with a non-threatening approach and my pup took to him almost immediately. I recommend him for your dog, even those that may have fear-based behaviors.

Anthony did a great job with our two dogs while we were away on vacation. He sent me pictures and a report on their walks every day. I felt very comfortable with his care and would certainly use him again. He has a good way with dogs.

I used Anthony’s service recently for the first time. Honestly I was nervous to leave my pet daughter with a “stranger”, but when I picked her up, she looked very happy being in Anthony’s house/care so I knew she was in good hands. Will definitely use Anthony again next time when we need one.

In 4 months I lost a dog and got a rescue from China! He was saved from the meat market and understood no english! I was afraid of leaving him with anyone over night but I trusted. Anthony he took EXCELLENT care if Cooper who was afraid. He kept me up to date on his crying and finally got him to take a walk! I was a happy momma. Will be using him again soon!!

Our dog had a great time staying with Anthony for a week! He was always very responsive and provided updates. Lizzie came home clean and ready for a long nap. Would absolutely have our dog stay with Anthony again!

My English Bulldog recently stayed with Anthony while we went on vacation. Anthony took great care of Archie. We received daily updates and pictures. I would definitely use Anthony for future boardings.

Anthony is an awesome sitter with my dog Harvey. He is caring, friendly, and communicative when it comes to pet sitting Harvey. He will not let you down!

I couldn't be happier with the care my dog received from Anthony. It was clear from the daily updates and photos that my dog was having a great time and felt right at home. I highly recommend OTE Pet Sitting to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable pet sitter!

Amy and Stephen have been walking my dog for over a year and I have nothing but great things to say. They respond to requests really fast, do their best to accommodate us on emergency/last minute walks and I always feel safe having them in my home. The app they use to communicate with clients is super cool, too- I love the daily report card and photos. I’m so appreciative of Bow Waus and would recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and kind pet care.

we love bow waus so much! we'd never had a dog walker before this, and i was incredibly anxious at the thought of someone else walking my dog, but the meet and greet process really helped ease my nerves. chris was maggie's walker, and he always wrote the sweetest messages and sent over some great pictures. the rest of the team is so kind and thoughtful as well! we come home from work to a very happy maggie. highly recommended :)

Bow Waus is absolutely the best! I wouldn't trust anyone else with my girl Luna! They are always on time and reliable and Luna always is so excited to see them. They always take the best photos and send a little blurb diary of their visit. Scheduling is very easy even last minute. Cannot recommend them enough!

Bow Waus is fantastic! They take amazing care of my pup—always reliable and super friendly. My dog comes back happy and well-exercised every time. If you’re looking for a trustworthy service, these guys are the best!

Such an awesome experience with Bow Waus! They cared for our 4 kitties while we were away for 9 days and I’ve never had such piece of mind while traveling. We got daily photos and updates, Amy played with the kitties daily, the litter boxes were clean and all at a reasonable price! Also their app for scheduling is so easy and convenient. Highly recommend!!

Always great, our pups love their “secret friend” that comes to play with them when we’re gone. Very flexible with our last minute additions due to our crazy schedules and the nature of our jobs.

My husband and I have been using Bow Waus dog walking services for a few years now and I honestly could not recommend a better company for your pets! Every walker that we have goes above and beyond for our pups and I totally trust each of them with any extra needs they might have (one of our pups had surgery & needed medications & had mobility precautions). The team is incredibly kind and has been very flexible with our walking requests. Highly recommend anyone in the Fishtown area to use them!

We LOVE the Bow Waus team! Have been using them for about 6 months now and the team is consistently reliable, communicative, and our lilo loves hanging with Stephen! The self-serve scheduling system is also helpful and easy to use.

Amy and Steven at Bowwaus are truly exceptional! As the owners, they are both incredibly reliable, friendly, and trustworthy. My rescue dog, Chauncey, is usually very standoffish, but I was so relieved to see them break through his barriers and gain his trust. Not only do they provide excellent dog walking services, but they also write the most humorous anecdotes about each walk, which always brings a smile to my face. If you want your dogs to be in great hands and have a fun time, hire BowWaus. Your dogs will love you more for it!

I cannot say enough good things about this company. This is my first experience with dog walkers, they are extremely professional, knowledgable and I know when they have my puppy that she is in the best possible hands. I was legitimately surprised at the level of service. Would highly recommend to anyone (but especially to those with miniature poodle puppy's that are a tad curmudgeon). Above and beyond service, advice and professionalism. thank you!

This was our first time using Craig and Chrissy's pet care service and we couldn't be happier! They provided a safe, loving and caring environment for our 2 gals for a week. We were thrilled with the communication and pics daily (especially my husband 🥰 ). We appreciated the detail Craig took in the "meet and greet" process gathering all information necessary to maintain their daily routine, of course making them feel right at home! They loved the walks and outside playtime. We would highly recommend their services and I'm sure Ally and Luna look forward to their next vacation with them..thank you guys so very much!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would!! Craig and Chrissy took care of our Bear as if he was part of their family. I will absolutely use them again. Thank you Craig and Chrissy!!

Craig is an amazing person who took phenomenal care of my two labs. I cannot say enough positive things about how professional and caring he was towards me and my dogs. I knew they were in the best care when he was with them and I feel lucky to have found him to help me with my dog walking needs.

Craig is awesome! He’s very responsive, professional, and really cares about our dogs. He sends us frequent updates including pictures and videos. He also walks our dogs multiple times per day. It’s like a vacation for our pups! Now we say, “want to go to Craig’s house?” and our pups get excited!

Craig and Chrissy are the best! They took such incredible care of my dog, I'm so lucky to have found Craig's Pet Care. I have a high anxiety, high energy pup that Craig played with for hours to tire out and not only treated him with extra attention but with games, treats and even a bit of a spa pampering session. I also have a ton of videos from his visit and it's so clear how he was welcomed into their home like one of the family <3. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Craig and Chrissy did an awesome job taking care of Clark for 5 days while we were out of town. They provided multiple updates for us on Clark including photos and videos to show us how he enjoyed his Doggy vacation. Craig also provided a wealth of information to help us deal with some minor issues which can improve Clark's quality of life. If they are available to watch your fur baby for any amount of time, I would strongly recommend that you book them for a sitting. You won't be disappointed and your pet will be treated awesomely. Thanks again. Earnest, Lori and Clark.

I left my 11 year old Shih Tzu with Craig and Chrissy for a week during spring break. This was my senior dog's first stay. He has a heart condition and needs medication a few times a day. Of course, I was a bit nervous about leaving my baby, but he settled in their home right away when I dropped him off. Craig was awesome about emailing me daily updates and pictures of my pup. My kids looked forward to seeing what our dog was up to each day. This made our vacation in Orlando more relaxing because we knew that our dog was being taken care of very well. I even joked that our dog looked like he was having such a good time, he might not want to come home:) I highly recommend Craig and Chrissy, especially if you have a senior dog with special needs. They made sure that my dog took all of his medication, which was the most important thing to me. Craig goes above and beyond when it comes to communication. My dog was happy, clean and well taken care of when I picked him up. I will definitely schedule more visits in the future when we go on vacation again.

Craig and Chrissy treated our pit bull Roxie like she was their own, and she clearly loved them. We received regular videos and photos showing how comfortable she was. And Craig's calm flexibility was so reassuring when we had a daylong flight delay that prevented us from picking her up on time!

Craig and his wife Crissy were beyond amazing with our senior boxer Krembo! We were anxious about leaving him for two weeks because we traveled overseas but I am glad I found Craig’s Pet Care. Craig and Chrissy are very kind, patient, caring, and loving people. Most importantly, I got multiple updates, photos and videos everyday, which was much appreciated. Our boxer took advantage of their big and secured yard and went on good walks. I can tell that he got a lot of love and attention and had a lot of fun. I am comfortable and trust leaving Krembo in their care in the future. Thanks again.

Highly recommend Craig's Pet Care! My dog, Hugo, has that playful puppy energy but sadly, bad joints that need special attention. I am VERY particular about who takes care of him and who I can trust to follow my care instructions for his personality. Craig went above and beyond with Hugo, treating him like his own. I got daily updates, pictures, videos, etc. Great couple, professional, clean, attentive, and loving!

AWESOME place to take your dog for boarding, grooming, and/or doggy day camp! All staff and managers are friendly, knowledge, great with dogs and always eager to help! Very clean and well-maintained facilty! They also have boarding options available for cats as well!! 🐕🐈‍⬛ A++! Definitely recommend!!!

Best Friends staff are amazing!! As soon as i bring my dogs in, they are excited! I love knowing that the staff and my dogs are happy that they are there! Thank you for allowing me to be able to go away and know that my fur babies are well taken care of!💜 …

My pup has been staying with Best Friends for about 2 years now and I could not have higher praise for them. They know him by name every time. They are always so kind and helpful. He gets so excited to go and is always a little sad after I pick him up. I love knowing he is in really good hands and around people that genuinely care about him. I would recommend Best Friends to literally anybody! ((Also isn’t this report card just the cutest thing ever!!))

We love it there! The staff are the best!! They are very friendly and take such good care of Charlie when he’s there and they treat him like their own! Anna the groomer always takes such good care of him and sends him home looking adorable!! 🥰 always have a great experience! …

I’ve been taking my cat there for 4 years now whenever I go away for more than a few days. The staff knows him well and seems to like him which makes me feel so happy and secure about leaving him there! Thank you to the team for always being so great and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place if you need to board your cat!

Love this place!! Aunt Anna our groomer, Uncle Jacob, Abbey, Ariel all are awesome!!! I don't trust my baby with anyone but I definitely trust him here!! They even have live cameras! Animals truly are family when they are there!

Excellent service for our senior dog Maxwell. Max is almost 9 years old and was living on the streets in AC before being rescued from a high kill shelter. He is an adorable Shih Tzu who loves to sleep! Best Friends recognizes his special needs and turns his grooming into a spa service that includes a nap. It certainly lessens the stress he feels! 💕

Anna is the best groomer ever! She is the dog whisperer because she has managed to become friends with my Yorkie Benny, who although adorable is not too friendly. How does Anna do it? Benny gets a fabulous grooming and any fears or hostilities he is feeling are put to rest. Thank you so much, Anna!!!! I have also boarded Benny at Best Friends. I feel comfortable leaving him there because I know he will be safe and treated well!

My dog and my mom’s dog stayed at this location for the week of Christmas. I checked the cameras often and I saw my dog having a good time .( my mom opted out of checking for her dog) it looked like my dog was having a great time and I love that for them. I got my dog back yesterday and I noticed he wasn’t as high in energy like he normally is and when we got home he was shaking and limping and I noticed his paws were raw. Now I doubt the people working there noticed which is probably why they didn’t let me his paws were raw. But then again I told them to give him a bath before I picked him up and they had to have had to clean his paws in the middle of it . I’m not sure if his paws were raw due to all the playing or what but it was just something to keep an eye out for . I will be trying this place another time to give them a chance ! Hope this helps anyone else. ( also lovely people who work there by the way ;very nice and very patient)

Best Friends Cinnaminson is the best place ever! Our pup Leela is a camper there, and boards whenever we go away - it’s her favorite place in the world. The staff are absolutely incredible and treat her like one of their own. She loves getting groomed by Anna and always comes home smelling so fresh and clean! We are currently looking for a house with (@perfriendlyrealtor) who we found at best friends - one of our primary search criteria’s are to be within 20 mins of camp because we couldn’t imagine life without it. 100/10 recommend!

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

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!

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.
