“Mirella is an energetic pet lover who has cared for my pup while I have been on vacation several times in the past. She is loving, patient, detail-oriented, and punctual. She has a way with dogs and always sends me photos of my pup while I'm away because she knows she means the world to me. I know I can always count on her and she provides my pup with so much attention and even plays her favorite music for her. She is tidy and organized and always walks my dog with her leash and dispenser full of bags. I would recommend Mirella to anyone who is looking for someone to walk their fur baby.”

12. Harper P.
About: Hi! I'm Harper and I've always been in love with animals, especially dogs, since I was young. I enjoy making connections and friendships with them, and they make me so happy. I am a dog mommy of a sweet Shiba Inu, and he is my cute BFF. When your furry baby is with me, I will treat him or her like my own, making sure that he or she is feeling as happy and comfortable as possible. I am pretty good at adapting to all of the unique dog personalities, and I'm very patient and gentle towards them. I will play games, take him/her on nature walks, and snuggle him/her. We have a huge dog park within 5 minutes of walking distance so they will sure to have a lot of play-dates! :) Your dog's well-being and safety are my priority. I ask that you bring any toys, water & food bowl, leash and/or harness, and food and treats (if you wish). I currently live in a dog-friendly apartment in San Jose. Let me know if you have any requests, and I will easily accommodate to your needs. Feel free to contact me with any questions, and I hope to see you and your lovely dog soon ♡ I'm currently work from home, so I will have plenty of time taking care of your dog. I'm available for boarding on weekdays and weekends after 7 a.m. I have a dog park within my building complex and a public dog park within 5 minutes of walking distance, so your pup will get plenty of play. My furbaby will happily be your pup's best friend!

14. Alyssa R.
“We were in San Jose for a wedding and needed dog walking and feeding for our little guy. Alyssa was great! We gave her our code to the AirBnB where we were staying and she walked Minnow twice both days of celebrations. Alyssa followed my instructions and Minnow was well taken care of. Definitely will hire her again when we are in town!”

19. Jessica W.
“Look no further! I highly recommend Jessica!! She was truly a life saver when I needed a last minute dog walker for my 80lbs Pitbull and continued to hire her after their first walk! Jessica went above my expectations in making sure my pitty got a good walk/run in, did his potty, brought him treats, and made sure he ate. I really appreciated her communication with each walk. I got a detailed summary of how their walk/run went and with a photo. Those little details really go a long way!! Jessica is professional, trustworthy, and reliable! Hire Jessica!!! You won't be disappointed! :)”
