1. Iuliia A.
“Iuliia is a great option to care for your pet. She’s very responsive, always sends pictures/details, and is very kind. My dog is pretty shy usually but warmed up to her really quickly.”
2. Brianna C.
“Had such a nice experience with Brianna’s dog walking visits. We had a very thorough meet & greet beforehand and I got many updates and pictures throughout each walk. Looking forward to booking again in the future!!”
3. Eva V.
“Eva is doing great with my lab-mix that is still under a year old. She communicates her schedule and notifies when she starts and finishes the walks. Thank you for all your help Eva.”
4. Dominique L.
“Dominique was great with my two dogs. They loved him immediately. Dominique was very flexible when I had to add in a couple of additional walks due to work commitments. I would highly recommend him.”
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. Amie T.
“Best of the best!”
7. Zoe H.
“Thank you for the tpy for Lucy. She loves it!”
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. Itzamarie P.
“Itzamarie and Antony have walked our large (and often stubborn) dog Tacoma now for several months and have taken great care of him. Tacoma has gone through a couple different fairly significant medical issues in that time, and Itzamarie and Antony have adapted each time to his new needs and limits. Tacoma loves them, I feel completely comfortable with him in their good hands, and they have been a huge help to the smooth functioning of our little household! :) Highly recommend!”
10. Aly S.
“Aly has been a huge help to our family! Our sweet boy can be a little introverted at times, and Aly has really helped him feel comfortable, loved, and safe in his new neighborhood. She’s extremely communicative and responsible. We’re so grateful to have found her!”
11. Athena C.
“Athena was wonderful with Bruno. Showed up on time and communicated well with me. I will book again with her!”
12. Stacy R.
“Stacy is great! She walked my dog during the workday consistently for a few months and he was so well cared for. Stacy is super reliable and easy to reach which I always appreciated. I’m so sad to be moving out of the area as I’m sure it’ll be hard to find someone like her again.”
13. Briza A.
“Briza is great! My dog is wary of new people, but he warmed up quickly to Briza. She is calm and patient with my pup, and she communicates very well with me about booking requests and special situations. I definitely recommend her to others!”
14. Zoe F.
“Zoe is an awesome pet sitter. Dependable, trustworthy, caring—everything you want when someone is coming into your home to take care of your pets. Both of our cats did great with her. One of them has idiosyncratic eating habits and Zoe handled them well. And there were never dirty kitty dishes in the sink when we returned, unlike what some other sitters left behind. Taking a chance with a pet sitter can feel risky, but Zoe is great. You can feel comfortable leaving your cats in her capable hands.”
15. Jocelyn M.
“Jocelyn was extremely responsive + reliable and was great at communicating. Will definitely reach out to her whenever a walker or sitter is needed.”
16. Aesha K.
“Aesha is an absolute gem! Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable about pet care, but her passion for animals truly shines. She’s patient, attentive, and always makes sure your pets get the love and attention they deserve. Our pets were so relaxed and happy when we returned, and it was clear they bonded with her. Aesha’s professionalism, punctuality, and thoughtful updates made the entire experience stress-free. If you want peace of mind and a sitter who genuinely cares, Aesha is the one to hire!”
17. Alston F.
“Alston is responsive, professional, and cares about the pet she’s tending. Her communication and going above to watch some TV or read a book with my Lily during a check-in cemented her as a great sitter. Thanks so much Alston and I will book you again!”
18. Lillian W.
“Lillian continues to be not only dependable and caring but when my poor old dog was in her last days and my other dog was gross sick she went above and beyond to care for them. I am so appreciative.”
19. Grace C.
“Grace is an excellent communicator and clearly loves dogs. She took great care of mine, being attentive to my dog’s various needs. Highly recommend.”
20. Sophia C.
“As Sophia's mom, I know her well enough to say that her superpowers include dependability, animal whispering, and conscientiousness. One day, when we were living in Tanzania, I stepped over our dog Alice while exiting our front door. "Mom, you hurt Alice's feelings by not greeting her when you stepped over her," Sophie said. For many years, living in Africa, Sophie developed a deep love for safari animals and our farm animals (cows, pigs, goats, rabbits, guinea pigs, chickens, and ducks). Back in the U.S., one winter, Sophie had a dog walking appointment during a snowstorm. Power lines were down. She drove as close to the house as she could and then slogged through the snow on unplowed roads a few blocks to get to the house and walk her charge. Sophie is on time, kind to animals and people alike even though she may actually prefer animals for company (:-). She enjoys walking pets and pet sitting, too. (Besides dogs, she also knows how to speak to cats, which we have had her entire life). You and your pet will be glad to have Sophie provide empathetic exercise and caring attention to both you and your pet.”
