“Luis has been a go to for me and I even recommended him to my parents to take care of their 3 dogs while they were away for a week. He’s been extremely reliable and is great with my dogs! Even with my puppy that’s always scared of new people, but she warmed up to him in no time. Luis will be a great choice for you and your pets!”


3. Emily P.


“Emily was great! She was very communicative and made sure to ask questions if there was anything she wasn’t sure of and also to make sure the boys had an easy transition to being cared for by her! We will definitely be booking her again in the future!”


4. Altira S.

“Allie did an amazing job keeping all our family of furs happy during our absence. It was obvious because our animals were happy to see us, but not desperate as they had plenty of love and exercise with Allie. That's a huge thing as German Shepherds need lots of attention and stimulation as well as exercise and play time. The pictures were much appreciated and it was obvious they had a great rapport with Allie. She's a treasure. We were able to take a few days for the first time in a very long time without one moment of concern. Thanks Allie!!”


5. Velvet M.

“Velvet was wonderful! Our Bear is an old guy with special needs and medications and Velvet did a great job handling all that he needed. She kept us in the loop on all meals, walks and medications and even sent us photos along the way so we could see how happy he was (maybe too happy without us! LOL). We arrived home to a happy pup and our home safe and sound. We will definitely use Velvet again in the future :)”


6. Kimberly C.

“Kimberly was great. We met before hand, she asked questions. The house was in great shape when I got home and she sent pictures and updates while we were gone.”


7. Laura D.
“Laura is such a sweetheart when it comes to taking care of my pup. It’s my first time having to hire someone to walk my dog and she’s been so understanding and caring towards myself and my dog’s needs. Considering I have that first time anxiety, I love that she always updates me and sends me pictures or videos of my pup every time she’s with him. I’d absolutely recommend her if you’re looking for someone to walk, watch, or take care of your dogs. She’s also a great communicator which is hard to find nowadays!”
