14. Tilly M.
“Do not choose Tilly to care for your precious pets if you're worried about them immediately falling in love with another human. My naturally suspicious dachshund was instantly drawn to her the first time they met. He skipped over the usual stranger-danger stage, jumping right onto her lap for cuddles and head scratches instead. Tilly has a very calm and approachable demeanor and your pet will feel happy and safe in her care. I always feel comfortable having her care for my little animal companion because she treats him like her own. Responsible and fun!”
15. Victoria S.
“I ended up never meeting Victoria but she was always courteous and quick to reply messages. Also made sure my dog had all she needed. Even when my dog made a mess in the house, Victoria was kind enough to organize and clean up. I would definitely recommend Victoria to whoever needs a dog-walker and I would be more than happy to have her take care of my dog in the future.”
16. Simon M.
“Simon looked after my highly energetic puppy for a long weekend when I was out of town. My pup was in great hands with Simon’s care, getting lots of love and walks! It definitely made being away from her easier and stress free knowing she was well taken cared for. Thanks Simon!”
17. Waleed S.
“Waleed has been an exceptional dog walker for my furry friend. From the very first walk, it was evident that Waleed truly cares about the well-being and happiness of dogs. He is punctual, reliable, and has a natural way with animals. My dog always comes back from walks with Waleed happy and well-exercised. Waleed's attention to detail and genuine affection for pets make him stand out. I highly recommend Waleed to anyone looking for a dedicated and trustworthy dog walker.”
