“I left my pups for the first time on a long trip. They usually travel with me. Dominique made sure to treat them like I do. They were loved and cared for and I was able to enjoy my trip. Most thankful for her!!”



“Connie is absolutely fantastic! She always gives us detailed updates on how the walks/drop ins go, and is so patient with our 8 month old puppy (and all the trouble he tends to get into). I have complete peace of mind when I'm at work and know she's stopping by for the day. I couldn't ask for anyone better!”

“David did a great job with our dog and house. His prices were fair. His communications were timely. He was kind, respectful and professional. We're planning on using him again for the next dog walking job.”


“Charles and Monica were awesome! They did a meet & greet with the pups which made us feel so comfortable. They were responsive and punctual. I will be booking them again. They are a great team and it’s a plus if you have multiple dogs or a XL breed like our Great Dane!”


“I will never be able to say enough. She treats my Wrango as if he were her own. She gives descriptive reviews of the walk. She also notes any observations, problems, or situations that she feels I should be aware of. Excellent walker indeed.”


About: I've been taking care of pets since elementary school, starting with helping neighbors. I have a natural affinity with all animals and am known for my patience in understanding and addressing their unique needs. I have my own dog, whom I've been caring for over the past nine years. Additionally, I've frequently looked after family members' dogs during their vacations or whenever they needed a sitter. My experience, combined with my genuine love for animals, ensures that every pet in my care receives the utmost attention and affection. I am currently available from 6 am until 11 pm for all your pets needs. I do have flexibility in my schedule so if anything needs to be discussed I am definitely open to that! In my home, pets enjoy a comfortable, clean, and supervised environment. I maintain a regular routine for feeding, exercise, and rest to keep them happy and healthy. I have a secure backyard for safe outdoor play and regular walks to keep them active and stimulated. When caring for pets in my client's home, I adhere strictly to the provided care instructions and routines. I maintain open communication with the owners, providing regular updates and photos to reassure them that their pets are well taken care of. I am vigilant about home security, ensuring all doors and gates are properly closed and locked. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both the pets and their owners, building a bond of trust and ensuring every pet feels loved and secure in my care.

“Jennifer was so good with Maizy! She gave quality time to Maizy playing with her as well as giving her undivided attention, and provided many photos on the report card. Maizy warmed up to her fast and you could really see how happy Maizy was in the photos 😊”


“Chrissy was great with my pup. She's an energetic 7 month old lab, and she did great with Chrissy. Thank you! Fast communication, reliable, on-time. We'll be using Chrissy again!”


“Erika had to be the best dog walker I’ve ever had. I would honestly, never want to use anyone else. I had a trip out of town that ended up having multiple flight delays and cancellations. I ended up having to extend the care last minute — she graciously worked with me on a moments notice. She was very polite and charismatic at meet and greet, took phenomenal care of Athena, was constantly quick to respond, kept me updated, sent photos, had full flexibility. She also helped work through any logistic issues efficiently and empathetically. My electronic lock to front door broke due to battery and she was at leasing office first thing, handling the situation for me. She made sure it was fixed and reassured me through my travels. She took my trash out. Left a thank you card. From start to finish she went above and beyond. It honestly felt like she treated my dog and home as her own, which is rare to find in sitters. Tremendous dog care provider. Would highly, highly recommend.”



About: I enjoy spending time with animals! I am very responsible, and will be there on time when I am needed. I can take dogs on walks and have a car as a way to travel to homes. I used to have a dog and three cats which I cared for. I also dog sit and cat sit for various family members and friends. I am flexible but can help on weeknights and weekends. Please let me know if you need any help with a sitter for your animal(s). Best, Ashley I am available to dog board since I work from home with my husband. We are both dog and cat lovers. We can take care of them any day. I have a small yard, but my neighborhood is great for taking walks and there are near by parks. I am happy to take dogs out as many times as needed.

About: I am a young professional who works from home. I have two dogs and have had at least one dog since I was born. I take my dogs for walks, to the dog park, and on car rides as much as I can. My two boys are more than dogs; they are family members and my whole world. I vow to care for your dogs with the same mindset. I’ve pet-sit for my parents when they are out of town and also family, friends, and relatives. I look forward to giving your dog the best care I can; I will show your dog lots of love! I work from home Monday - Friday. My schedule is very flexible, so I am available during the week and on the weekends to care for your pup(s)! My boys have access to the entire house, but they have their places and a crate on every floor if needed. I have small, medium, and large crates available if your dog requires crating. I take my dogs out on a lease to use the bathroom frequently throughout the day and during their walks. Additionally, I have dog gates where I can separate off my main level to provide space and time to unwind.

“Daphine was great with our 2 pups. Our dogs can be a lot when first meeting them and Daphine handled their different personalities and needs very well. We were left very happy pups!”


“Courtney was a huge help while I was away on vacation! She did an amazing job taking care of my fur babies. She went above and beyond on numerous occassions to ensure my pups were taken care of with plenty of extra long walks, feeding them dinner and treats, and kept me apprised of the pups daily with photos and updates. Thanks to her, I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing the dogs were being well taken care of. Courtney is one of the best dog walkers in the area and would absolutely recommend and work with again!”


About: i’ve been around dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes naturally. from feeding and bathing to playtime and cuddles, i make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I have a flexible schedule and am open to boarding, house sitting, walks, and more! just give me a heads-up, and i’ll be there to care for your pup. Your pup’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! I have a secure, fenced yard, a safe space for all dogs to feel comfy, and a pool. My three small, friendly dogs love making new friends, and my family’s always around to give extra love and attention. It’s basically a doggy paradise here!

About: I have taken care of my cat Lily since she was about 8 weeks old and now she’s 11 and still thriving. I had two french bulldog puppies that were also around 8 weeks old that I took care of as well. I now live with my boyfriend who has a 2 year old golden retriever and a 10 year old rescue lab mix who has trauma responses. Since I have moved in and lived here for about a year now he only sleeps in my room with me. I’m currently doing online college and am looking for something productive to do in my free time. I typically work on schoolwork in the mornings and am free the rest of the afternoon. I will care for your pets in any way that you ask me to. I understand how important pets are to families and that’s some pets have specific necessities or have a certain routine.
