In-Home Pet Sitting

Our pet-sitting service is built on a true understanding of animal behavior, years of professional pet care experience, and a deep passion for providing the best care for those animals who may need a little extra support or attention!

We designed this service so that you can customize your pet's care and avoid paying “blanket rates” for services your pet doesn’t need.

Our basic in-home pet-sitting and boarding services include feeding (of course!), two enrichment walks, and guarantees your pet will not be left alone more than they’re used to. Any other services can be added in piece by piece!

Man & his Mutt offers Board and Train services, starting at $150 per night. Board and Train services are efficient and effective at tackling certain training objectives and can help your dog perfect specific skills or work through some more challenging issues. However, it doesn’t allow us to facilitate owner education alongside their pet’s learning process, which we find is a deeply important part of the training process.

We only recommend Board and Train service when it’s truly the best training option for your pet. Please set up a consultation with us to discuss if Board and Train is the right choice for you and your pup!

We Know More Than Just Dogs!

The CPACM test also tests for a thorough knowledge of cat care, and we are deeply passionate about our pet cats! Alex has 8(!) cats in his home, and has fostered and found homes for multiple cats and kittens since he moved to Philadelphia- including two full litters of kittens that were born in his home!

We certainly aren’t qualified to train cats, and are very impressed by people who can. However, we are more than qualified to care for them! We are trained in Feline First Aid and CPR, and can also administer any type of medication that may be necessary for your little lion. We always track potty habits and appetite and send plenty of photo updates! Your kitty will have access to as much engagement and enrichment as they may want, but we always let them make the first move.

We also have experience with reptiles, horses, livestock, small mammals, and exotic fish. We can handle the whole menagerie!
