“When I was injured and unable to walk my dog, Luna, Matthew was an absolute lifesaver. He showed up every single day; rain or shine; right on time, without fail. His reliability and dedication gave me such peace of mind during a challenging time. Not only was he dependable, but Luna absolutely adores him. It’s clear he genuinely cares about the dogs he walks. Matthew’s consistency, kindness, and professionalism have been an essential part of both my recovery and Luna’s happiness. I can’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker.”
“Lisa is an amazing help. We have booked her several times to take care our dog when we were away. She takes great care of our dog, and also takes care of little things around the house. Our dog loves Lisa! We have to be careful not to tell her that Lisa is coming she gets all excited and waits at the door.”
“Cassandra was incredible. We used her 2x a day for a week, and she was extremely reliable, always early, and always left pics & reports! She was awesome and we will certainly look to her first if we ever use Rover again. Can’t recommend Cassandra enough!”
“Amanda was great! She is always on time and makes our dogs care her priority. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a responsible dog sitter or walker.”
About: I have had pets my entire life and love being around animals! I have pet sat for many friends and neighbors so I am very comfortable spending time with your furry friends! I am currently on summer break before I go to grad school and have a very light, flexible schedule so I have so much time to spend with your pups! I am open to taking care of your animals however they are most comfortable, whether that's going outside, being put in a crate, or however you seem best fit!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was about 16 years old. I have plenty of experience with animals of all different shapes and sizes. I’m a ER nurse and I love to help others and will do everything in my power to make sure that your pet is in the best hands possible! Last but not least, I am also open to watching other furry friends such as bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters and so forth! I’m a nurse and I have the ability to make my own schedule so essentially, you can tell me what days you need and I’ll can create my work schedule around that! I will be sure to always keep your pet on a leash when letting them use the bathroom outside. I currently have a mini aussiedoodle puppy at home. Once again, I care for cats, dogs, bunnies, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, you name it!
“Beth was wonderfully caring with our dogs. She played with them and sent videos. They were so happy with her! She was a wonderful sitter/walker and we will definitely hire her again !”
“Yuliia was great! Would definitely recommend, she’s detailed with her report cards and was very accommodating. She also went above and beyond and made sure to play with Cosmo after walks.”
About: I'm an experienced vet assistant, and have 4 fur babies of my own! Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and petsit their pets for years. I have a diabetic cat, and am experienced with giving insulin, and administering other medications to cats/dogs. I currently work full time as a veterinary assistant. I'm available during my lunch break, most evenings and weekends to provide quality pet care 🙂 I'll walk your dog and clean up after them during the walk. I'll make sure there's enough food & water for your pet, and clean their bowls as needed.
About: I’ve taken care of many different animals in my life ranging from beta fish to lizards to small dogs to big dogs. I’m confident in dealing with any issues that may arise I’m currently the owner of a golden retriever and a brown lab golden retriever mix that have trained as seeing eye dogs but unfortunately dropped out of the program for minor health reasons. I take them out every morning and afternoon and night. I feed them most days as my spouse does some days as well. My moto is let them have fun but be safe about it. For example in our apartment we will throw the toy up and down the hallway but we make sure that nothing breakable is in the way. We are also lucky enough to have a field close by with a long lead to let them run around and play fetch with them.
About: I have been dog sitting/cat sitting for as long as I can remember. Animals have my heart and I really adore them. I’m hoping I can be the one to keep your fur baby safe I’m available all days of the week and weekends! From anytime in morning to night or if I have to sleep with your animal !
