2. Sophia C.
“Sophia is the best pet sitter, dog walker, and cat whisperer my pets have ever had. She has walked my dog every day since he was a baby and he absolutely adores her. She’s also stayed over at my house many times to take care of the dog and cats, and I trust her completely in my home. She has a demeanor and skillset that sets animals at ease. I have recommended her to many friends as a perfect resource for caring for their pets. I could not recommend her more highly and will follow her to Rover!”

4. Stacy R.
“Stacy, was great! I had her set up to walk my dog a few times a day while I was out of town. She took such good care of him and was super communicative. There were a few days were the weather way bad so she played inside with him and even cleaned my couch when he got mud on it!!! 5 star service! Will definitely be booking again”
5. Iryna K.
“Iryna was fantastic. She was great at communicating, and Waffles had a great time with her. I never thought I would need a dog walker, but I am injured, and she was a lifesaver.”
6. Daniel N.
“I was impressed with Daniel right from the start! He is a very humble, respectful, responsible, kind young man who loves animals. My dog Sophie immediately took to him and she would have great walks with him. I asked a lot from Daniel when I went on holiday…and he delivered! He came to my home for 10 days to not only walk my dog but also feed her…give her medicine, and as a bonus, he played with her. Socializing w Sophie went a long way because she was alone most of the time. He would always be on time and, when another dog walker canceled, he quickly covered that shift. No questions or higher charge. He sent a lot of photos too. Since I’ve been back from my holiday, I’ve been in poor health. I texted Daniel and he is now my dog walker on days when I’m unable to take Sophie out myself. Again, punctual & always thinking about what’s best for my dog…. For example, He remembers to dry Sophie’s paws when they arrive from a walk in the snow or rain. I highly recommend Daniel as your dog walker or sitter.”
7. Mallory B.
“Mallory is wonderful - quick communication, attentive to details, ensuring that my dog got what she needed. Mallory did a thorough meet and greet, including making sure that she earned all of my reactive dog’s cues and triggers.”
8. Tina W.
“I can't recommend Tina highly enough as a dog walker and sitter! She has been absolutely amazing with my labrador, Scout. Tina is incredibly reliable and always goes above and beyond to ensure Scout is happy and well cared for. Her genuine love for dogs is evident in how she interacts with Scout, making every walk and stay an enjoyable experience. Whether it's a short walk or a longer stay, I know Scout is in great hands with Tina. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, Tina is the one!”
9. Harry C.
“Harry was wonderful! I had a meeting that kept me at work late. Harry came to the house and gave my pup a good long walk and fed her. He even sent pics from the visit. I was able to concentrate at my meeting knowing he was taking care of my pup. I will definitely call on him again!”
10. Daniela P.
“Daniela has been a daily walker for Over a year. She is very dependable and really good with my girl, Rainie. Daniela is a Good Communicator and trustworthy. She followed my directions to a T and went above and beyond. I highly recommend her services.”
11. Kylie B.
“Kylie is one of the biggest pet lovers I know! She is the only person I trust to leave my rambunctious puppy with and to take her on walks when I am stuck at works. After time with Kylie my pup is not only happy, but tired enough to nap until I get home. Kylie is the best dog walker and is so patient even with my still learning pup! 10/10 Recommend! She is the best around.”

Thank Lilly for being so great to both Paddy and I!!”

With Sarah, you can rest assured that your pets will receive the utmost care and affection in your absence.”
