1. Alicia D.
“Alicia is amazing! My dog is always so happy to see her and it’s obvious how much she cares about pets. She took the time to ask questions like what commands we use to ensure successful walks. I will continue to reach out to Alicia for future dog walks!”
2. David H.
“David is fantastic with animals. He took excellent care of our Golden Labrador, Derby, every time we went on vacation. One trip we got delayed due to a storm and he was so understanding. Wouldn't leave my animals with anyone else!”
3. Keyla V.
“Keyla was on time and so friendly to both of our dogs. Archie took right to Keyla with over excitement jumping, she immediately met Archie at his level and gave him lots of love! Love the rover card so that you know the route they take! Even though this was just a meet and greet, Keyla was comfortable and asking questions about likes and dislikes of our dogs. Definitely will be booking more walks for Archie and puppy visits for Ruby with Keyla! Thank You”

“Vanessa was punctual and communication with her was easy. Rubeus was a stubborn pup and timid of strangers, yet Vanessa managed to walk him effortlessly. Would definitely recommend. Thank you!”
5. Alex M.
“Alex is a wonderful dog walker! Double Bubble was always happy to see him, and she was nice and tired after each walk. I highly recommend Alex.”
6. Chyna B.
“Chyna is great, I had her walk my dog almost every day while I was away on a trip to get his energy out while other people were watching him, I had great peace of mind knowing that he would be safe and have a great time with her, she made the process very easy and was very self sufficient given I was out of the country and unable to answer messages quickly. We will continue to book with Chyna, she did a great job, and will recommend her to anyone!”
7. Caitlin R.
“Caitlin was absolutely wonderful when taking care of my babygirl Ellie. She is very personable and made me feel very comfortable leaving Ellie in her care. Ellie loved her and it was great that Caitlin was so communicative sending me pictures and updates letting me know how Ellie was doing while she was with her. Along with taking her for a walk, she also played with Ellie and sat with her in the backyard which I am so appreciative of, as Ellie just loves being around people. It's those small things that make all of the difference. Caitlin loves dogs and it truly shows.”
8. Emily L.
“I can’t say enough good things about Emily! My dog adores her walks and gets so excited when she arrives. I love the peace of mind knowing she’s getting the exercise she needs, even on my busiest days. The updates and photos after each walk are the best!”

16. Song W.
About: While I haven’t been a pet owner myself, I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats through friends and neighbors who trusted me with their furry family members. I’ve helped with a variety of tasks, including daily walks, feeding, and playtime, as well as keeping pets company when their humans were away. I’m patient, attentive, and quick to adapt to each pet’s unique personality and routine. I’m currently taking a break from office work to recharge, which means my schedule is incredibly flexible. I’m available throughout the day and can easily accommodate requests. I excel at building trust with dogs and ensuring their safety during our time together. I’m attentive to their behavior and well-being, and if I notice anything unusual, I’ll promptly take notes and communicate with you to keep you informed. I also respect the home environment of every pet owner I work with—whether it’s taking my shoes off at the door or following any specific instructions, I’ll treat your home and your pet with care and consideration.
17. Amandeep T.
“I left my 4 year old dog "Muffin" with Amandeep for 8 days and she would send me pictures of her everyday. I felt so relaxed when Muffin was with Amandeep. I recommend her 100%”
18. Su B.
“Su loves animals and will do anything for them! She is a great dog mom and I would definitely leave my dog with her anytime. Your pet would get all the loving in the world!!”
19. Joanne W.
About: I have been caring for cats, dogs and horses since i was 10 years old. I am used to large breed dogs like collies, rottweillers and bullmastiff. My rottie cross had seizures for most of his life so i am used to giving medications and caring for senior dogs with health problems. Life really is better when we share them with our furry friends. I recently had to say goodbye to my beautiful bullmastiff Stella and I really miss having a furbaby. I’m available for boarding on weekends in your home or mine. I am off in the summer so would be available weekdays and weekends in July and August. I live in a very dog friendly condo and in a lake home in the summer. I can also take care of your pets in your home.
20. Bailey F.
“Bailey did a great job helping us with our cats and dogs. They were well cared for with their food, their area was kept clean and she spent some time with them in the house and out walking them. She was punctual for our meeting and trustworthy to have in the home overnight. Highly recommended!”
