About: Hi! I’m [Your Name], a passionate dog lover and dedicated pet care professional. With years of hands-on experience walking and caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I treat every pup like they’re my own. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long adventure walk, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to make sure your furry friend is happy, healthy, and safe. Reliability, communication, and genuine care are at the heart of everything I do. Let me give your dog the love and exercise they deserve — tails will wag, I promise! On an average I run 4-6 miles daily. As a digital artist who works from home I tend to find myself with a lot of energy left and lots of times I would rather spend with animals and being active at that. As a husky owner and a dog that needs lots of attention and walks, my dog is my best friend. He runs with me a lot, and I care for my dog as well as my other pets very attentive, extremely nurturing (it’s a habit), and with so much play time.
“We had a last minute need for our special needs pup. Rebecca stepped up and accepted our request. To our delight she did an amazing job for us. Rebecca was extremely caring for Rico, was patient with him and was on time for his walks. Excellent communication between us as well. Will definitely use her again and highly recommend her.”
“Devon, Was great with cooper! Cooper was very excited to go for walks with Devon. Very communicative and caring. Will definitely use Devon Again!”
“It was my first time hiring a dog walker for Fuji and I must admit, I was very nervous. However, Marissa was phenomenal, I can’t recommend her enough. She over communicated, she was super patient, very helpful, punctual and kept my mind at ease while I was away. Fuji really enjoyed her too! Thank you again, Marissa!”
“Joy has been absolutely wonderful with Dory! From the very beginning, she was kind, reliable, and attentive to Dory’s needs. Dory can get a little too excited when meeting new people, but Joy handled it with so much patience and care. I really appreciate the detailed updates after each walk and how she always goes the extra mile, like wiping Dory down and managing her excitement pee thoughtfully. It’s clear Joy truly loves dogs, and I feel completely at ease knowing Dory is in such good hands. Highly recommend her!”
“Paula is such a reliable walker! She is always on time and Polly is is so excited to see her so I know they have fun on their walks. She knows Polly loves to be pet so she takes time out of the walk to make sure she gets plenty of attention.”
“I highly recommend Wan Shan. I was unable to text her back and she was able to communicate with my wife and take care of our puppy! Will def book again!”
“Karalyn was amazing! So easy and great to work with. She asked a lot of questions and really made me feel like my pup was in safe hands! We would definitely recommend and book again. She gave great service and updates.”
About: IMPORTANT: Thursday house-sits start in the evening! As you might have seen on your TikTok, I grew up in Turkey, a country with streets that are home to many strays.

I have owned birds and rodents, even jumping spiders and mantises! I can give excellent care to your other furry, feathery or scaly friends. I am home on Wednesdays and Fridays, and weekends as needed. On other days, I am available to walk your dog in the evenings! Let me know what works. I don’t have any pets at home!

“Jasmine was great with our scared sweetheart of a pup. She was patient with her and we can’t wait to use Jasmine again!”
“Julia was amazing! On extremely short notice she was able to help get my dog walked where I could not due to a broken leg- I told her she didn’t need to do a full 30 minutes but she did anyways and my dog is pooped- literally and figuratively! She had a great tome with Julia and my dog is very difficult to walk with leash reactivity to many things- I am so thankful for Julia today and will be using her again for sure!!!”

“Shalini has dog-sat my picky and stubborn yorkie-mix on numerous occasions, both at my home and hers. She is patient and kind. She took my dog, Colt, on daily walks, and helped him persist even when he wanted to turn back. She was perfectly fine with quirky food needs and other routines. Even with his medicines, she made sure he had his as instructed. She sent photo updates regularly and was quite communicative while Colt was with her. Whenever something was unclear, she did not hesitate to reach out. Truly cannot recommend Shalini enough for your dog-sitting needs!”
