“Anabella has been great. She is attentive to the dogs and has patience with one of our pets that takes a long time to warm up to others. We’ve had a scheduled routine and she’s very reliable.”
“Dana was simply the best among all dog walkers we interacted with. She was super passionate about our dog and took scrupulous notes (and pics) about his daily walking experience that we found it very reassuring and connected with our dog through Dana. Dana was very polite and diligent about every task however big or small. Our dog was looking forward for her arrival every day at the right time, got super excited when she came inside the house. Dana was also very helpful to support my parents while she was at the house, they loved her very much. Thank you Dana for being such a wonderful person, we love you too. Zhi and Maggie”
“Caleb took such great care of our dog! He did walk visits and drop-in visits and was on time for all visits and very responsive. We will definitely use Caleb again in the future!”
“Rosa was amazing watching Moose. She walked her three times a day for several days and administered her food and medication without any issues. Rosa sent a photo and update with every walk, which gave us so much peace of mind. Moose was clearly well cared for, and we would highly recommend Rosa and book her again.”
“Amanda is a fantastic dog walker and partner in helping to train our dogs. She worked to understand where we were at with training our dogs and helped to complement that with the time she spent walking and gave us great suggestions on improving our own training.”
“Sophie is outstanding. She is always willing to help, even in a pinch. She always snaps photos of their walks and im convinced she’s able to get Shelby to smile. The quality that I most appreciate is that she is very reliable.Thank you Sophie!”
“Kaitlyn is always great. I have an anxious dog. She is great with Selah, and helps her weather the challenge of having her person go away for a number of days. Good communication and a good problem solver.”
“Jessica did an amazing job watching our giant fur baby! She kept in touch throughout our time away, giving us lots of pictures, and took excellent care. She put our mind at ease while we were on vacation, so we knew our baby was well cared for, and went above and beyond. Would 100% recommend her for walks and dog sitting in future.”
“Alessandra is great dog walker. She understands my dog very well and takes the time to give him extra love and not just walk him. The updates are very thorough and she communicates so well with everything that’s going on. I’m really glad that I was able to find a really trustworthy and patient person like Alessandra.”

“Tanya goes above & beyond for my dogs, it’s so wonderful knowing they’re in great care! I have polar opposite dogs, an older, tiny yorkie with lots of needs, and a younger, energetic lab who’s very extra. She handles both of them amazingly in the same visits & I’m always thrilled to book with her again. Definitely reach out to her, you won’t regret it!”
“Melissa was amazing! We have never left our pups before, so we were a bit worried how they would do, but Melissa handled them with grace. She was very communicative and put all our worries at ease. Would highly recommend her, we will be using her in the future.”
