“Stephanie was such a sweetheart to my girl, Blue :) she was always on time and even walked her a little longer than the 30 mins. I can tell Blue felt comfortable with her and I felt comfortable leaving her in Stephanie’s care. Will definitely rebook in the future!”

“Abigail has been fantastic with my dog, Elle. She came by for 30-minute walks while I was away and was always reliable and on time. Elle absolutely loved her walks and came back happy and well-exercised each time. Abigail also sent photo updates during the walks, which was such a nice touch and gave me peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. I’ll definitely be booking her again—highly recommend!”
About: I'm a passionate animal friend with experience caring for dogs, cats, chickens, and rabbits. My family fostered animals for the local shelter in addition to keeping pets which gave me a lot of experience with pets from all walks of life. My mom also bred Yorkshire Terriers for several years and I would help train the puppies for their new homes. I have a calm, professional, and patient demeanor that allows me to get along with a variety of pet personalities. I can't wait to be your pet's new friend! I'm self employed and working from home so I have totally open availability. I'm here to help you and your beloved pets whenever the need arises, no worries! I understand that your pet is an important member of your family, with their own special personality and unique needs. I treat all pets, as well as your home, with dignity and respect. When I care for a pet, their safety and well-being is my first priority. Special instructions provided will always be followed. I unfortunately don't have the ability to host pets where I live. However, I'm familiar with all the local dog parks and hiking trails and would be happy to take your pet on outings, with permission.
About: I grew up with dogs my whole life and I currently have 2 cats. I dog sat a family with 3 dogs and 2 cats multiple times this past year. I have more compassion with animals than anything else on the planet. I will make sure to take extra good care of your cats or dogs. Mondays I am completely free at anytime starting September 1st. Tuesdays I am free in the am before 7:30, 12:30-2:30pm and anytime after 7pm. Wednesdays and Thursdays can be tricky. I’m free anytime after 6pm on those 2 days. Fridays I’m free anytime after 1pm. I’m also decently free on the weekends. I take care of my cats daily within our own home. I also took care of a family with 3 dogs and 2 cats multiple time this past year.
“Aqsa was absolutely amazing with my pups! She came over prior to do a meet and greet even last minute! She listened to my requests and made sure to communicate well and sent me lots of pictures. Definitely will keep her in mind in the future! Thank you Aqsa!”
About: I treat all dogs like they are my own. Since I work from home, I am constantly home to take care of any needs your dog/puppy may have. I love to spend time walking around the neighborhood, and on days when it's nice out, we spend an average of an hour outside in the afternoon. My dog is part Jack Russel Terrier, has a ton of energy, and loves to play, so your little one will get plenty of exercise and be exhausted when they go home! Also, wee wee pads are always available in my home for dogs that need it. I gladly give medication, food and potty breaks, and whatever else you may need! I have had dogs since I was a child, and my own adopted dog is two years old. Growing up, she was sick constantly, so we've had to learn a lot about medication for dogs, and handling dogs with casts/cones/etc. My childhood pet passed away in my early 20s with pancreatic cancer, so I definitely have experience with dogs that are extremely ill and need a very strict diet and medication plan. I currently work from home, as does my boyfriend, so there will be people around constantly! We have lots of time for play, as many walks as you need (my dog who just passed was on medication 4x a day and needed walks every three hours) so don’t be shy to ask for what your pup needs! I have a large enough apartment for my dog and a couple of others (one of mine recently passed so there’s more space than expected). I’m happy to follow any specific guidelines needed for your pup in regards to sleeping arrangements or crating, etc.
“Rachel was totally amazing with our Saydee even during a tropical storm. Saydee is a seizure dog and no problem for Rachel. We booked her already for our next trip. She really has a special love for what she does.”
“Leslie has been with Buster 4 times now. She is doing great getting to know him & taking care of his needs. I appreciate that she is loving towards my furbaby & speaks to him with kindness and patience. She seems very comfortable with him & he likes her too!”
About: I grew up with goldens in my home. I recently got a dog of my own! I’ve also looked after dogs for friends and family. I work at a gym at night about 9 minutes away from my apartment. I’m usually always free in the morning and earlier in the afternoon. I’m always home right around 9 every night. I live in a nice little neighborhood where there are plenty of places to go for walks. I could definitely crate your dog if needed. I’m perfectly fine letting it roam around my place as well. I keep my place very clean and always make sure that I’m not leaving anything that my own dog could eat or chew on the floor.
“Katherine has been nothing short of a blessing for me and my dog and I can say from personal experience that she is deserving of every single one of the 5 star reviews that she has. As someone with a new dog, I have been blown away with how great Katherine is with my dog. Ever single picture and update sent by Katherine shows my dog happy, excited, and being played with and loved. Katherine also always goes the extra mile such as playing with my dog after a walk, putting on her winter or raincoats, giving her treats, and cleaning up any messes my dog may have left I wholeheartedly recommend Katherine and can't thank her enough for all she's done for me and my dog!”
