“We really enjoyed having Alexandra as our dog walker! She took great care of our dog (and even played with our cat) when she came to our house for a couple days. We will definitely be asking her for help in the future!”

“Sydney was fantastic with our golden retriever! She was prompt and dependable, and she adapted to our crazy travel schedule. Very grateful to have such a pup lover in our area. Our dog got very conditioned to his daily walk and started looking for Sydney’s car—she’s his new best friend!”

“Josh was so great with Walker!!! He definitely spent more than the 30 minutes "advertised" walking and playing with my dog. I also felt that my dog was in great hands because of Josh's background. I would absolutely use him again!”

About: Hello, I am an active individual who likes being out in nature and exploring the local outdoor areas. I would enjoy the opportunity to help care for your pet and would enjoy the company as well. I am employed full time as a PhD student at Cornell and am seeking a side job that I could enjoy as much as my current job. I live by myself in a quiet, smoke-free home with no other animals or children. I am in a pedestrian-friendly area with excellent scenery for walking. Because much of my work schedule is flexible, I will have time throughout the day to take care and spend time with your pet. I also have more availability on weekends. As an animal lover, I like to interact with dogs through play (tossing a ball, playing tug-of-war with a toy, running around outside) and relaxing with them and giving them pets.

About: I always loved having pets growing up. I grew up in the country so we had a lot of space for animals to be able to run around and be outside. Dogs, cats, birds...practically every creature you can imagine. Currently I have a cat of my own, and a friend’s dog who I watch fairly regularly. It works out well because I’m a very active person who likes to get outside as much as possible—hiking when the weather permits and bringing him along with me. This is in part due to my ever-changing, flexible schedule. I have a few set shifts during the week, but for the most part I make my own hours and I have time to be available pretty much whenever I am needed!

About: I am loving, honest, and willing to go above and beyond for your animal. I can take care of medication needs, training, potty training, and more. I have CPR training and can provide comfort for the anxious friends too! I am disabled, but have 100% commitment and free time to help your fur baby out. My schedule is open and readily available. I can also provide last minute services. I treat every animal with respect and love, mine or not. They deserve the best care regardless of breed, size, or condition. Each animal gets the same one on one care.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. My dog is a Pomeranian Yorkie mix who I’ve had since he was a puppy, and he’s 14 now. In the past couple years he’s had some health problems which I’ve helped manage and care for him during that time. I also have 2 cats who have very different personalities. One of my cats broke his paw recently and I helped care for him during that time, and he has made a full recovery! I’ve cared for pets from the time they were young all the way through their senior years. I’d look after your pets as if they were my own and I can promise you the best care will be given to them. I do computer work on a freelancer schedule, which means I can build my work schedule as I see fit. Therefore I have open availability and can accommodate any pet care schedule. I have lived in both a rural environment as well as a city environment. So I know the difference that presents with pets. Whether to go outside you can let them free roam, or need to put them on a leash and keep a close eye on them, or if they’re indoor pets and need to ensure they don’t get out.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
