"Be the person your dog thinks you are."
Andrea Borror is the owner of Walkies LLC and the owner of The Cat Peeps. Since 2002, Andrea has been devoted to providing Philadelphia with the best that dog walking and cat sitting has to offer, and providing pet owners with peace of mind, reliable care and most of all support through ALL stages of their pets’ life.
It means just that! All of our clients receieve an "assigned sitter." They're the only person that will ever be in your home and walking your dog. It's the very person that you will meet at your regstration meeting, and also your dog's future bestie.
We do this, so that you the client can creat a relationship with your sitter, and also so your sitter creates a great relationship with your dog so should there ever be something amiss with your dog, or even home, your sitter can tell right away and report to you, and me if need be.
Walkies NEVER sends anyone to walk your dog that you have not met, and do not know is coming.
Yes! In fact, we insist! We require a registration meeting prior to the start of your first service, of course so you can meet us, but so we can ask you all the questions, so we are downloaded on routine, feeting, quirks and fav "spots" outside.
Yes we are! We are fully insured and laced up with a hefty liability policy for the safety of your pet and home, our employees and business.
Yes! We have a 6 point vetting & training process for ALL of our employees:
1. Reference Check
2. Background Check
3. Pet First Aid Certification
4. Sitter Protocol Test

Yes!!! We operate and provide walks, visits and overnights 365 days a year, rain or shine.
That being said, our Office Hours are Monday through Thursday, 9am through 5:30pm. During those hours we are answering phone calls, scheduling request submissions, talking to clients, onboarding sitters, fielding requests, inquiries and questions!
The office is close ALL major and federal holidays.
We do check email intermittingly, and of course have an open line to our working sitters 24 hrs a day. However, no service requests submitted, or left on voicemail should be considered confirmed without a confirmation invoice.
