“Prompt and professional.”
2. Jason K.
“Jason was awesome with our dog! He is super responsive, easy-going, and you could tell he cares about making sure he follows all the owners requests. He came out of his way to meet us beforehand which helped me feel more comfortable with a new dog walker, especially since beagles have some quirks ;) Douglas had a great time with Jason and we will be sure to book with him again in the future!”
3. Cathy W.
“Cathy is incredible! Right from the start, she offered to come meet my dog ahead of time and as soon as she walked in I knew she would be a great fit. She took the time to play with him, pet him, and let him get to know her. As a result, when she arrived to pick him up for his walk, he was happy to see her! This extra care to getting to know my dog (and letting him get to know her!) is so appreciated - especially since I have had other walkers give up on him. I would recommend Cathy to anyone who is looking for a caring and compassionate sitter or walker.”
4. Maria W.
“We love working with Maria. We are new dog owners and just got a puppy and were overwhelmed with the adjustment, but Maria right away trained him with a few commands which helped us at home tremendously. Our dog loves Maria. And we totally recommend her!”
5. Stephen M.

8. Leora R.
“Leora did an awesome job. She was on time every day and took Baxter for a great walk. He was tired and happy when I came home from work. I will absolutely use her again.”
9. Abby L.
“Abby is the dog whisperer! My dog has fear aggression and has tried to bite other dog walkers. By her second visit with Abby, she was giving licks and begging to be petted! I would recommend Abby to anyone! I don’t know what her secret is, but she’s approved by my tough little girl!”

11. Oxana I.
“A month ago, we went on vacation with our family and left our Marley with Oksana for 3 weeks. It was our longest separation, and we were very worried. However, Marley was in loving hands. Oksana perfectly followed all our instructions and sent us photos. Seeing Marley on walks, active and happy, allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation! We are immensely grateful to Oksana for her care and love.”

17. Stephanie A.
About: I've been taking care of animals ever since I was a kid, I am currently in College to be a Veterinary Assistant I'll be using this job to be more familiar with different doggy/cat personalities. I'm definitely looking forward to be spending time with your pets and going on adventures together. I am very communicative and open to new suggestions and new environments. I have a 10 year old Shiba Inu family pet in my house, he has a lot of allergies so I always have to be checking and making sure he doesn't eat anything he's not supposed to eat. I have a super friendly 10 year old Shiba Inu who not only loves humans but he also loves making friends with other animals. I have a nice park that I take my dog to that is about a mile away, I have treats and many different toys.
18. Stephanie O.
“Stephanie is the most reliable and trusted pet sitter I have ever used. I have two cats (one wit diabetes that needs insulin shots daily) and a 100 pound dog with a lot of energy. She was incredible with staying on schedule for my cats medication. She gave them so much attention and truly loved on them. She was able to handle my 100 pound dog, take him on long walks, and also give him the attention and exercise that he needs. I highly recommend her a a petsitter!”

“Wonderful!!! Great communicator and handled my dog well.”
20. Emily A.
About: I took care of my senior dog for many years, especially in 2023 when we became very sick and frail. Ever since he was a puppy, I crate trained and potty trained him along with my wonderful parents! I'm currently working for myself so I have a fairly open schedule in the mornings, afternoons, and evenings. On average, I respond within a day or on the same day due to my open schedule! I have a pretty big yard outside of our house and a friendly neighborhood, with dogs of all different shapes and sizes. My house has a first floor, second floor, and basement. We also have an unfenced yard that includes a patio.
