Experienced and Caring dog watcher!

Pet care experience

I'm a college student who has recently moved back to the area and I would love to board or walk your dogs for you! Before coming home to Philadelphia I lived in Brooklyn NY for two years and while there I worked as a dog walker for a professional company in downtown Brooklyn and lower Manhattan. Through this company I have garnered comprehensive experience with a vast variety of dogs ranging from tiny Chihuahuas to giant great Danes. I also have experience with boarding and walking both tiny puppies and elderly dogs who require more attention and loving care. Dogs and animals in general have been a part of my life for as long as i can remember and it brings be great joy to foster them while their families are away! In closing I would say I am a highly capable and dependable person who only wants the best experience for you and your dog!

Jake was great with Stella! She stayed there for a long weekend and he was very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. He also provided pictures of Stella during her stay and texted me letting me know how she was doing. He's a great sitter and I would definitely recommend Jake to anyone. Thank you so much!

Jake came to the rescue when I was getting desperate! Chloe fit herself right into the household and took advantage of all the snuggles offered!

Jake was fantastic! Very accommodating and very friendly. He watched Finn over the New Years holiday when I was having a lot of trouble finding anyone else who was willing to take a dog over the holiday, even on Rover. He was always quick to respond and sent me all the updates I asked for. Finn seemed to get along great with Jake too and was tired when we took him home, so it was clear Jake spent a lot of time playing with him. His apartment is very nice and a perfect location to parks. I will definitely use Jake again!

Jake was absolutely great. Our dog took to him right away and had such an amazing time while we were away. He got back to every message about the meet and greet, scheduling drop off and pick up times. He also sent us daily updates and pictures of our dog during the stay.

Information Jake W. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the general temperament of the dog before sitting them and any specific care needs that the dog may require. I don't have any preference on the breed type and am willing to accept all types and sizes!

A typical day

The types of activities that a dog can enjoy while on a stay with me are long walks around my quiet neighborhood and, if the owner is comfortable with the decision, trips to the Penn's Landing Dog Park which is a quick 10 minute walk away. Dogs will also receive lots of love and attention while just hanging around the apartment!
