âWe've used Bill as our dog walker for our two cattle dogs for almost two years. He's even done house sitting on occasion! They love him! He's trained them very well to be calm on walks which if you knew my dogs that takes lots of patience. He always was so kind to do small little extra things (bring garbage bins or packages outside) that was so helpful especially when I was on maternity leave. We highly recommend Bill! We will continue to use him in the future, as needed!â

âMy dog was super hyped during the first meet and Anthony's calm energy helped him relax. On his first walk, my dog didn't even look back to see if I was coming which is a good sign that he enjoys his company. Definitely booking future services with Anthony. Thank you for your patience and kindness!â
