“Janette is an excellent dog walker. She is always on time, very responsible and very loving to my 127 pound German Shepherd who took to her immediately. He is so excited when she comes. I would highly recommend her services. She walks my dog twice a week.”

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. In fact, I took my very first steps with a Rottweiler named Oso by my side! Growing up around these large breeds has helped me plenty with hands-on experience and confidence with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Over the years, I’ve cared for and loved several dogs, including a German Shepherd, Siberian Husky, and currently a Malinois mix and two husky mixes. I’m very familiar with the energy, exercise needs, and unique personalities that come with active breeds. While I have lots of experience with larger dogs, I absolutely adore small dogs too. I want make sure that every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient with shy or timid pups and always take the time to earn their trust at their own pace. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, running around, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’m their new best friend ☺️. If you have a high-energy dog that needs to burn off some extra energy, I’m more than ready to help tire them out with plenty of exercise and fun 🤩 ! ❗️I’m available all weekdays and holidays! Although, i’m in college, studying Administration of Justice, and depends on my schedule for the semester since classes may vary on my availability. but it doesn’t mean i won’t make time for your babies! I do prefer for your animals to be treated at your home, because my dogs can be protective of our home and won’t want to put any animals in harms way.
“Ross & wife Diane were very personable, kind & loving to our dogs. They handled the chaos well & our dogs liked them. We were happy with their service & will use them again. Thank you to you both!”
“Katherine is phenomenal with my fur baby! She is cognizant of weather conditions and checks in to confirm what I think is best for my fur baby. My fur baby gives great signals of trust and excitement when she’s around, and I will be rebooking again!”

“Zaira has been a great walker and she has been so patient and friendly with our shy dog. She has been very communicative and we will continue to contact her for help with our dog’s walks. We are very happy with Zaira and would definitely recommend meeting her.”

About: I own a neapolitan mastiff, Dachshund, and two cats so I know how to take care of and deal with all different sizes and shapes of dogs and cats. I’ve also owned many different types of fish and reptiles and cared for them so I would be open to any kind of sitting/walking or caring you might need. I’m currently in school but I’m available a majority of the time every day. Please contact me for information about booking or to check availability. I treat all dogs with kindness and like they are my own. Maintaining safety is one of my top priorities along with making sure that my care is as good as I can make it. Their are many good pet sitters out there but I try to give your animal what they need with flexibility and security in you knowing that your pets are safe.
About: I have been training dogs since I was a little girl, teaching our family pet new tricks. I've since trained 4 puppies into good citizens and co-trained 2 large breed dogs, one of whom is a reactive rescue. I am very confident with dogs and know how to work through difficulties. Since I have one reactive dog in my home, I am cautious and take safety very seriously. I have professional experience caring for dogs and cats in a kennel environment. I worked at a veterinary clinic as an assistant and kennel attendant for 3 years. I am CPR and first aid certified. I also have extensive experience with horses which keeps my first aid skills sharp! I love all animals and will treat your friend as if they were my own. I am very detail oriented so I love to have lists and detailed instructions that I will follow to the letter while you're away. In my spare time, I volunteer at a cat shelter and foster difficult cases. I'm extremely attentive to animals well-being. For in-home boarding, I have space for 1 additional dog at a time. We have 2 separate yards, but one is reserved for my reactive dog to keep her and our other animals safe and happy. Our other 3 dogs are friendly but high energy. They are able to take turns with your dog being outside or play together if your dog likes to do so. Please feel free to ask me any questions and voice any concerns! I am currently trying my hand at freelance graphic design and content creation, so I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. The only commitment I have is barn cleaning Monday-Wednesday for 3 hours each day. In your home, I will follow all instructions to the letter and ensure your animals and home are kept safe, happy, and in order. At my home, I have 2 separate yards and multiple kennels available if needed. My own dogs sleep and take breaks from the elements in their kennels, but are otherwise outside barking at squirrels! Depending on your dogs temperament and play style, they can either take turns with my dogs in one of the yards or rough house along with them. While my dogs are large, they have proven themselves to know their own strength. They played very well with a Chihuahua we were fostering for a few weeks.
“Alondra is amazing! One day our dog got out while we were at work, she was so level headed and helped us tremendously in getting him home. We really appreciate Alondra. She’s been wonderful.”

About: I've grown up around dogs my whole life and have been walking and caring for friends and family's dogs for years. I know how to give each pup the attention and exercise they need. My daily routine is very flexible. I'm available every morning and evening for walks, and I build my whole schedule around your dog's needs. Whether it's a quick potty break or a longer adventure, I'll make sure your pup gets the exercise and attention they need. I always care for pets in the client's home. I follow any special instructions you give me, keep your house clean, and make sure all doors and gates are securely closed before I leave. Your pet's safety and your home are my top priority.
About: Being from a home with all kinds of animals, it just comes naturally to help them enjoy every little moment. Bartending for 11 years I understand that schedules overlap and luckily I always had someone to help walk my babies when I couldn’t, I’d love to return that to my community because they deserve all the sniffs! I’m currently working part time in animal care and absolutely love learning each doggie’s personality! My schedule varies but I am pretty flexible and am very open for routine scheduled walks or check in’s, just let me know what you’re looking for! I love taking walks around my neighborhood and have some training experience over the years with my own pets, I’ve raised plenty of dogs from new puppies up and love to see how they grow. I use treats to train if approved or provided as well. I tend to stick to a routine also with my own pets so they stay comfy and happy
“Ellie is absolutely amazing! She always responds quickly, is very flexible, and does detailed Rover cards which totally makes my day seeing them at work. She's fantastic with my dog, Floyd, and I would recommend her to everyone!! ”

“Nika was communicative and a pleasure to work with. She took jabba on the perfect amount of walks while we were on vacation so that he stayed active. I highly recommend her for the job!”

About: I’ve taken care of a mix of dogs and cats since I was 13. Stopping in to check on them and walk them and even give them a friend for a little bit. I am currently still in the search for work so I have complete open availability! I am an early bird so no matter the time I can be there! I ensure that the pets are always accounted for and safe. I take the time to say hello and give anything they may need per the owners request!
