About: I’ve never lived without a dog in my household. I’ve had both small and large dogs and I haven’t met an animal that doesn’t like me. I’m very flexible with my schedule, so I can very easily squeeze in anyone. I love going out and spending time with animals, and I usually don’t have concrete plans. I have a 70lb goldendoodle who is fully housebroken and trained. My yard is fenced in and I have never had an issue with any of my pets or any visiting pets getting out.
“Darnelle was amazing!! I had to leave for the weekend urgently and Darnelle kindly agreed to walk him at the last minute. She was always on point, and was patient with directions to enter the building. She went above and beyond to make sure my dog Benji was comfortable and walked him for ample time on both days! Even though my dog isn’t very friendly with new people, he warmed up to her quickly and went on walks without any hassle. Would definitely recommend her for all your doggy care needs! She is the best”
“Calliane is fantastic with my dog, Maya. Maya is nervous around new people but by the second walk with Calli, she was wagging her tail like crazy! Calliane is communicative, punctual, friendly, and professional. It feels great to have someone you can trust with your pet, I look forward to continuing to work with Calliane.”
“Travis has started walking our 2.5 year old husky mix Apollo twice a week and we will be using Travis for future care as well when we are out of town. Apollo loves him and we get pictures of their walks. Travis is always respectful of my home and really prioritizes my fur baby. He is always on time if not early and excellent at communicating if he has questions or needs anything. I fully trust him with our baby and am so thankful he is here to help us out!”
“Soyoung has been amazing at walking my dog, feed her a special homemade diet, and taking her out again. She’s been very thorough, follows my directions, and even offered to measure Rosie’s food portions to be accurate. I feel rest-assured with her knowing she’s in great hands! She also was patient when the leasing office was closed, and waited almost half an hour to retrieve keys to get into my apartment.”
“I hired Ghazaal for an hour long walk. As Sage is a retired Service Dog, there are many specific training positions she has and I am an anxious about leaving her. The 3 of us walked together to see the positions and location of the walk. We all 3 worked well together. I am completely confomfort hiring her again!”
“Kristine has been amazing with our puppy. She came during the day for dog walking 3 times a week and our puppy was always super excited to see her. She is extremely loving and dependable. Highly recommended.”
“Our dog Sky loves Erica! It's clear Erica cares about forming a friendly bond and we really appreciate that. Erica is also very dependable and professional with her communication. I highly recommend Erica to others!”
“My pups really enjoy their daily walks with David. They look out for him and know every afternoon at about 4 he will be there to walk them. Takes really good care of them and is reliable. Couldn’t be happier.”

“Kenny is a great dog sitter! Very energetic, positive, and communicative! Would definitely recommend him as a sitter/dog walker. We were looking for someone to board my puppy, Juni, in the fall and started off w/ a meet-and-greet and some walks to let Juni familiarize himself w/ Kenny. At the meet-and-greet it was clear that Kenny is an experienced dog sitter as he immediately asked all of the important questions. I was relieved to know that Kenny has worked with reactive dogs before, as Juni will often bark when he sees other dogs approaching him out of fear. So far Juni has had three walks with Kenny and always comes back happy and looking comfortable w/ Kenny!”
About: I've always had a dog and been around many types of dogs since I was a little kid. My first dog was a springer spaniel and he was such an amazing dog. Always comfortable with any kind of breed/size and make sure they're fed walked and taken care of and I make sure the dog is comfortable and is played attentioned to. I'm mostly experienced with medium to large size dogs but have been around plenty of toy dogs as well. I hope to be able to make dogs and owners at ease when they are apart and treat the dogs just as I would hope someone would treat my dog. I can't imagine how I would be now without having the connection with a dog.

About: I have vet office experience and have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I'm familiar with all kinds of pets, from giant dogs to the tiniest kittens (and other small animals like rabbits and reptiles!) and all of life's stages. I'm comfortable administering medications and strive to keep you updated on your furbaby's wellbeing while you're away. I'm currently between full time work, so have more time to spend with your furbabies! I'm available most weekends and happy to help for those longer trips. Safety is my top priority! Making sure your pets are comfortable and cared for to your standards and for your peace of mind while you are away is what I strive for.
“I am a happy repeat client of Avery’s for a weekly midday walk. Cannot recommend her enough for the prompt and clear communication, her knowledge about dogs and calming presence in front of my sometimes wild doggo. My dog Namu is so fond of Avery! Her detailed and lovely Rover Card makes me smile every time.”
