I highly recommend her!”
17. Gonzalo R.
“Gonzalo is incredible. He helped us with our dog Cleo, many times. Cleo was a lovable sweetheart, but she was also a Doberman Pincher. So a lot of people would think of the guard-dog stereotype and not be so comfortable with Cleo, but Gonzalo just saw who she was, our lovable doggo. He always gave Cleo what she needed, time at the park, extra snuggles, etc. The last time he helped with Cleo she was 3 1/2 years old and had just been diagnosed with terminal cancer. Being able to rely on Gonzalo’s help, knowing he would care for Cleo like his own, genuinely helped us through that time. He’s a rockstar.”
18. Hope H.
“Hope takes amazing care of our 2 adult dogs, puppy, and elderly cat. She pays close attention to detail and makes sure she knows all their needs and preferences. Hope provides us with lots of updates and pictures. We know our kids are well cared for and loved, just as we love them!”
19. Shania K.
“I am delighted to recommend Shania as a dog walker. She has a natural affinity for animals and a genuine passion for their well-being. Over the time I have known Shania, she has demonstrated exceptional responsibility, reliability, and care in handling dogs of all breeds and sizes. Shania is not only attentive to the dogs' needs but also ensures they get the appropriate exercise and socialization. Her understanding of dog behavior and commitment to their safety is truly commendable.”
20. Ted S.
About: My love for animals is why I want to help you take care of your pet while you go on vacation or work. I love the outdoors and will walk your pet and play their favorite games. I will maintain the routine that your pet is most comfortable with. Your pet will be care as if it was my own pet. I can do whatever level of service you need. I’d prefer to stay at your house to watch over your dog if you are going to be gone for multiple days, so that I don’t have to drive as much. But If all you need for me to do is to stop in and check on things for a couple days while your gone I can do that. i can take your dog for a walk during the day, feed them, check on things, water plants and take in the mail/newspaper. I am currently unemployed so i have a lot of free time on my hands. Let me know when you need me to watch/walk your dogs. I usually feed and give water to my dog 2-3 times a day. I walk my dog 1-2 times a day. He sometimes likes to play toys/fetch. Also he likes a treat in the evenings.
