Testimonials

I would like to thank every pet parent that has given us the opportunity to care for their precious pets. I have developed special bonds with all of your pets but also with many of you.

I truly feel I have the best clients! Here is what some of our wonderful clients had to say about us:

We have known Creature Comforts and its creative, entrepreneurial owner, Andrea Sergio, for ten years. Through any weather and all kinds of situations, Creature Comforts has been there – without complaints – always committed. In fact, without Creature Comforts we could not take care of the wonderful dogs we love. Thank you Creature Comforts!

Michael and I don’t have kids yet. We work and travel a lot. French Fry and Gumby are our everything when we get home – they are the sweetest puppies! In March 2007 we discovered that our pet sitter at that time was skipping visits and being dishonest about it. We were absolutely shocked! A friend recommended Creature Comforts and we are SO grateful. Andrea is an incredible planner – more on top of our schedule than we are!  We consider Andrea and Robyn part of the family – 100% reliable, always responsive and smart in making decisions about what is best for us and our pets. We would trust them with anything – we actually recently asked Andrea if she is planning a nanny service too :-) , as we would love to find someone as trustworthy for the baby we are expecting.

Andrea Sergio’s Creature Comforts Pet Sitting has worked with our family for over four years. Her company is the fourth I have employed, and will be the last. Why? Because Andrea and her employees are trustworthy, responsible and flexible as well as knowledgeable about pet care. When ever I communicate with Creature Comforts, I feel I have been heard and that the needs of my pets and my family’s home will be in solid hands while I am away. I also know that if there’s ever an emergency, Andrea will manage the situation as I would myself. As an example, one of my cats was diagnosed with kidney disease. I was out of town for two weeks while Andrea cared for my cats. She was able to hydrate my cat with subcutaneous fluids as prescribed by the vet. I received a call from Andrea who was concerned that my cat was not eating normally. At that time, Andrea made a very constructive suggestion on how to proceed in efforts to motivate my cat to eat again. We agreed that she would try her proposed course of action and if it failed, she would bring my cat to the vet. Andrea updated me with a phone call for several days on my cat’s progress until we both felt she was out of the woods in terms of her food intake.

Andrea’s employees follow suit in animal care. I am totally confident that when I go away, my pets will receive the quality care that my family and I provide when we are home. And the icing on the cake is the wonderful care they take to keep my home secure while we are gone. If you’re looking for a great pet care service to help you, Creature Comforts Pet Sitting will not disappoint you.

Amy is so lucky to have mid-day visitors who love her as much as she loves them. I’m sure she feels such joy when you come. I’m sure it’s a big reason why she has recovered and is as healthy as she is.

Doreen, Gladwyne


Andrea and her staff have been taking care of my dogs for the past four years. Our chocolate Lab, soon to be 11 and our 2 year old Yorkshire Terrier have benefited from their services. Andrea and her staff are true professionals. I have utilized both daily care and their house sitting services when we are away. We are able to go away and not worry about anything at home. I will never forget when I received a call at 11:30 PM from Andrea the night we returned from vacation. I forgot to call her when we got home – which she insists you do – She was concerned that our plane had been delayed and that she was on her way over to take care of the dogs as the house sitter had left at 5:00PM and we were due home at 6:30. I was amazed at her dedication. However, I should not have been surprised. It was just one of the many examples of her committment to her charges.

Creature Comforts’ success comes from a culture of caring that starts with its owner. If I needed further verification of my high regards for Creature Comforts I only have to look at two tails wagging, ears alert, a stuffed toy grabbed by both dogs to present to Lisa as she arrives to take them on their afternnon journey, and it is a journey. After Lisa lovingly greets both dogs equally – which is very important as they each vie for her attention. She asks them how their day has been and asks them if they would like to go for a walk-in all kinds of weather. Upon getting their agreement they leave and when they return they are given fresh water and a treat but more important to them are the belly rubs.

Every day I receive a note from Lisa about their journey. Every day there is something new on the note, “We ran into Reggie today, a bichon frise whom Piccola and Seamus enjoyed meeting” or “Seamus did not want to go out in the rain today. However, once he began he seemed to enjoy himself”. Friends who have pet care arrangements have told me that they receive a pre-printed slip with boxes checked off as to hygiene and are signed by a different person each day-some of whom they had never met. I have had 4 different caretakers-who were all wonderful. Whenever there was a change in staff, Andrea always called and personally came with the individual and introduced me, the dogs, and my home to them.

In closing, I want to thank Andrea and all her staff for the excellent care they provide for my two friends and I would highly recommend their services.

Tucky and Cody are two energetic Golden Retrievers who are always ready to go on long walks. We needed help on the weekends and after trying several walkers we happily found Creature Comforts. Terry loves what he does and it shows. We are thrilled that Terry has come into their lives.

Steve, MaryAnn, Tucky, & Cody


You are always very professional and I feel comforted that Cosmo is well cared for!

Sara, Penn Valley


When we adopted Lily, our beagle mix at nine weeks old 5 years ago, we knew we needed help in housebreaking her and harnessing the energy of a little puppy. We interviewed several pet sitters and were extremely impressed with the professionalism and sensitivity of Andrea Sergio and her team. Although we thought we would no longer need to have our dogs walked once Lily matured, we have been using Andrea’s team now weekly for the past 5 years and our dogs now think Creature Comforts are part of their family. Andrea’s dog walkers are very skilled in dog handling and behavior as evidenced by their ability to walk our three very active canines and show our dogs the same level of care and affection we do ourselves. During the 5 years we have been using Creature Comforts our oldest dog passed away and we later introduced a new puppy to the mix. Andrea’s team was compassionate in our loss and quickly learned the personality of our new beagle and the changed dynamic among the 3 of them. We know we can trust and rely on Creature Comforts on a routine basis as well as when the unexpected occurs. I would highly recommend Andrea and her team to anyone looking for best in class care for their pets.

Theresa is the cat and dog whisperer! The dogs waggle so severely when she’s here I can feel the house shake!

Georgie, Haverford


Andrea has been watching our pets for over 10 years (even before she was officially Creature Comforts). She, and everyone who works for her, is totally reliable, responsible, and wonderful with the dogs. Life would be difficult if we couldn’t call Creature Comforts to help us. Thanks Andrea for all your great care and service.

We always have peace of mind when we’re away, knowing that Zoe and Duncan are receiving the very best TLC from Creature Comforts. They are relaxed and happy when we return, and we know they have been well cared for. The Creature Comforts staff goes the extra mile in making sure the pets get attention and love, as well as basic care. We are very pleased with Creature Comforts and recommend them with enthusiasm.

Helene & Pete, Bryn Mawr


Thanks Andrea. You and your staff have been great to all my Vizslas these past few years!

Sandy, Haverford


Lisa & Andrea are wonderful with my pets. They show Kobe & Jake much love! They are also very responsible and the dogs have a great time at the park or on a walk!

Laura, Gladwyne


We’ve been using CCPS for many years, for 2 dogs. They are 100% reliable and 100% loving caregivers. I wholeheartedly recommend them.

Pamela, Penn Valley


My husband and I are the “creatures” who are comforted when we go out of town and leave our 2 dogs in Andrea’s care! We are confident that our pets will be safe and that their physical, emotional, and medical needs will be met. We also know that they will be given special attention including getting extra treats, belly rubs, and playtime!

We really appreciate the professional manner and attention to detail that Andrea provides! Our dogs are their “normal” selves when we return from vacation! We highly recommend using Creature Comforts Pet Sitting.

Max and Joy, Bala Cynwyd


We have used Creature Comforts for our dog, Cubby, for the past 9 ½ years. They are knowledgeable, reliable, professional, always follow all of our pet care instructions, and always leave a thorough, detailed note. We have been completely satisfied with their services and would highly recommend them to any pet owner.

Ellis Family, Gladwyne


We had always boarded our pets until a couple of years ago. We saw Andrea walking a neighbor’s dog and inquired about her availability for the following weekend. She has helped us immensely and given us a peace of mind when we leave our pets for the day or overnight. Thank you Creature Comforts!

Lita and Fred, Bryn Mawr


Andrea’s attention to our pets’ unique needs and organized approach to her work make me confident while we are away. She remembers and truly cares for each pet.

Donna, Gladwyne


My dogs are a very important part of my life, and there aren’t many people who would qualify to take care of them. Creature Comforts does qualify. The dogs always seem happy and contented when I return home.

Meme, Bryn Mawr


Andrea and her team began to care for our girls, Syd and Riley, many years ago. We always have been delighted with the kind and dependable visits, but two months ago when Syd became ill, Andrea, Lisa, and Theresa supported Syd, Riley and us in every way we asked – and then some. When Syd died, they shared our grief and comforted us. During this difficult transition, while Riley is spending her old age without her littermate of 14 years and losing her sight and hearing, we can leave her knowing that she will be visited by her friends. We can not recommend Andrea and her team at Creature Comforts highly enough.

Larry and Donavee, Gladwyne


I have been a client of Creature Comforts Pet Sitting for many years. In all of these years I have never had a disappointment nor an unpleasant experience for me or my dog.

Your associates show up on time and are kind to my dog and courteous to me. The feedback that they provide gives me a sense of confidence that my dog has been cared about as well as cared for.

Andrea, there is no doubt in my mind that the people who work with you take their lead from you. Your sensitivity and love of animals is obvious. When my dear dog, Ned, finally lost his fight for life, your gentleness and concern went over and above the call of duty. I will always be grateful for the tender, compassionate and efficient way you took charge and did what was necessary in my absence.

I know I can always leave my home and my precious pets in your care and that you will do anything and everything you can to insure that I will be pleased with what I find on my return.

Thank you for many years of service past and future.

Sherry Altschuler, Ph.D. and Yogi, Bryn Mawr


Creature Comforts has been a great addition to our family life. Has provided a needed service that provides great attention and caring to our pets and gives us a peace of mind with our own busy schedules. Having a “large breed” dog that needs to be handled in an authoratative but loving manner has never been a problem for any of the walkers. Robyn has been the best. Very warm and loving to the pets. Receptive to the needs of Maggie’s trainer. Very observant when there has been an issue that needed immediate attention- called and followed up with needed care.

Anne and Bill, Merion


Scuppers and Zephyr love Creature Comforts. They want to say that they are so so happy when Robyn or Andrea comes to visit. For me, it’s total
confidence that the dogs will be well cared for whenever I can’t be there. I trust my puppies with them unquestionably. They are punctual, loving, understanding, reliable. Thanks Andrea! Woof!

Ruth, Bala Cynwyd


Andrea, I have to say that you really do have a wonderful service. In the past, we used (just occasionally, for our old dog who died) a Bala Cynwyd pet sitting service. The difference with your service is that, whether it was Erin or you – it doesn’t seem like you were ever there – you wipe paws, etc. With our very expensive Bala Cynwyd service that we had with our old dog, just the few times – maybe 20 that we used them over the years, you could ALWAYS tell that they were there – either because of their own tramping through the house or not wiping paws or for whatever reason – food spilled. The only way that I know you were ever in our house is because of the sweet note that you leave when you leave the house. It’s really a great thing. I know Abbie will outgrow her need to have someone come, but I do think it is really great that we have you!

Lyn, Penn Valley


Working with Andrea and KT has truly been a Gift! KT’s care and attention is reflected not only in her detailed notes about each one of our ‘babies’ but also in how relaxed and peaceful they are when we return home. Thank-you Creature Comforts!

Darlyne & Sharon, Bryn Mawr


Creature Comforts is convenient, cooperative, always efficient, and pleasant. When I forget to schedule, when there is an emergency, they are caring, and Andrea seems to always come through. My dog has never been happier! I actually think she gets a little disappointed when we show up, and her walking “party” is over!!!!

Thanks Creature Comforts…..YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!

Denise, Merion


Creature Comforts is an incredible service that truly cares for your cherished pet. Their experience and knowledge is so helpful when leaving a fussy pet and home in another’s care. I am so satisfied and grateful for their help.

Ellen, Bryn Mawr


We have been using Andrea and her staff for more than 10 years to care for our Vizslas. Our recent Vizsla Ellie get loads of ball playing time and wonderful care when we are away on vacation. I know she is in good hands along with our home. I enthusiastically recommend them. 5 stars!

Sandy & Scott, Haverford


Creature Comforts is the best! Jessica is so sweet with Blanche and Stella–giving them lots of TLC. I especially appreciate her willingness and cheerfulness about cleaning up after Stella when she was sick just before Thanksgiving. You all are always reliable and responsive to our needs. You guys love dogs (and their owners), and it shows. Thank you so much for all you do.

Karie, Narberth


Everyone at Creature Comforts is wonderful – organized, flexible, reliable, competent and very kind. I never worry about my pups when I’m away because I know they are both safe and happy. Thank you!

Meredith, Gladwyne


We have used Creature Comforts for at least 5 years and have been very happy with the service they provide. Andrea is so tuned in to your dogs and has a great understanding of their issues, and how to care for them.

Andrea always tries to accommodate me even with short notice, which is greatly appreciated. All of her sitters are polite, tidy in my house, and take great care of the dogs. I would highly recommend Creature Comforts.

Amy, Penn Valley


CCPS is knowledgeable, trustworthy and they all love animals. I have complete confidence that any problem with my dogs will be dealt with in a serious and timely manner. I have given their name to friends and that is my ultimate compliment.

Susan, Bala Cynwyd


We arrived back home from our trip today as scheduled and everything appears to be in top form. Charley is frisky and happy to see us; her food dish is full and her kitty litter is clean. Plus the house is secure with everything in order and all the mail and packages (many more than usual) inside. Nikki did a great job! Thanks so much to both of you for taking the worry out of leaving and keeping Charley safe and happy.

Lorrie, Rosemont


Rollins is more excited to see Nikki when she arrives than any of us! I know he is well cared for and loved in our absence, and that makes me feel so good while I am away from him!
