6. Julie L.
“I am incredibly careful about who dog-sits and Julie is on the short list. I unfortunately had to leave town after my dog was hospitalized with pneumonia and Julie nursed him back to health. She followed the complex care instructions, handled the medications, and just simply made him feel comfortable while we had to be away. I would highly recommend her.”
7. Jana S.
“Jana has taken care of our small dogs and stayed at our house during a number of vacations. She loves animals and is honest / responsible in her care.”
8. Brittney G.
“This was our first time using Brittney to checkin and walk our two dogs and we were very pleased with her care. We chose her because one of our dogs is reactive towards other dogs and her profile indicated she has experience with dogs like this. She employed the training techniques we use to avoid any issues and followed the instructions we provided. She sent us fantastic updates and the dogs seemed very happy based on the smiling pictures we received! We would definitely use Brittney again and appreciate the loving care she gave our dogs.”
9. Jaime B.
“Had the opportunity to have Jaime watch my dog overnight after using Jaime as a walker. I can tell you we couldn't be more pleased after having Ernie spend 3 nights at Jaime's house.”
10. Samantha C.

12. Carolyn R.
About: While in high school, I took care of the 2 dogs in my life (a mini dachshund and a greyhound/black lab mix). As an adult, I offered my knowledge to petsit several other dogs. I do not own any dogs myself, but I love all breeds. I am currently unemployed, so I have free availability at this point. I used to work 3rd shift, so I'm more used to evening hours, but I can work whenever you need me there. I will follow your instructions for how to care for your animal, never going beyond that without your express permission (something I expect from those watching my own animals). There are a few walking trails near my home that I am willing to take your dog on, if you approve.
13. June C.
“She is a very thoughtful and caring person who has taken care of my dog numerous times. She always follows care instructions carefully and is gentle with my dog. My dog loves her and is always happy to stay with her or go for a walk. Would not hesitate to let her take care of my dog any time!”
14. Hannah S.
“Hannah has been absolutely wonderful taking care of our new little puppy. I have been so nervous to leave him home but knowing that he is in great hands has eased me so much! The detailed updates have been amazing & she is always there to answer any questions I may have. I know I’m a high maintenance dog mom and Hannah has been nothing but accommodating. Kylo loves her & so do we! Thank you Hannah!”
15. Erin H.
“Erin is a wonderful person and dog-mom! She is attentive, caring, and your pet will love her. Her dogs are the sweetest and are always spoiled and happy, you can feel at ease leaving your pups in her care!”
16. Catarina S.
“Very quick reply and perfect communication. My first time using this service and made me feel at ease. Will use her again in future. I highly recommend.”

18. Ben J.
“Our initial appointment with Ben J was for a meet and greet with our dog. Everything went very well, our dog liked Ben alot. Ben seems quite comfortable with our hyperactive 80 pounder! The second meeting was a walk with my husband. When they returned, they were laughing it up and the dog was smiling. I was pleased to know that all went well. We have booked several more walks and hope the relationship continues.”
