“Nick took such great care of my dog Lana while I was abroad! He kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which really helped me feel at ease being so far away. I could tell he was attentive, responsible, and genuinely cared about her well-being. It meant so much to be able to trust someone with her during that time. Because he is so familiar with dogs and knows some dog training, he was also able to keep her calm when they would encounter another dog (with treats of course!) I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter!”
“Felipe is the kind of experience you want to have with a dog walking app. It’s not easy handing your beloved dog over to a stranger. Except with Felipe it was. Within seconds, not only did I get that Felipe is a dos person, Major was sniffing up all the dog vibes as well. Felipe is responsive, punctual, dependable and just a nice personable human. Most importantly, Major LOVES him. I highly recommend Felipe and have had an excellent experience with him.”
“Brenda’s super friendly approach with our puppy in their very first meeting put us at ease about having her walk him. She was also shared her own experience with dog walkers, which we found to be of great value. Lastly, Brenda’s scheduling flexibility has proven to be a great asset in our arrangement. I would highly recommend her services to anyone who asks.”
About: I am an animal lover with a cat of my own. I’m a bit of an anxious pet parent, and I like to feel secure knowing she has the best of care when I go away. So I will always care for your pet (and your home) as if they are my own. I always make sure to note special instructions and details to ensure your pet is well cared for, happy, and safe. I make a point to bring in any mail/packages, water plants, and put trash cans out if you’re gone for an extended period of time. You don’t have to worry about a thing while you’re away. For each 30 minute session I make sure your cat or dog get pets, attention, and playtime. I have received a covid booster, and am willing to wear a mask in your home. I am available afternoons and evenings Monday through Friday. Mondays and Fridays I am pretty flexible all day. I’m available all day on Saturday and Sunday. I will always be sure to treat your home with the utmost respect, and follow all instructions to take the best care of your cat or dog.
“Julia is great with Sasha. Our sweet Sasha is very shy and doesn't like to go out with people she doesn't know well but Julia is patient and plays with Sasha until she is ready to leave. She is also very reliable and communicative.”
“Responded to a last-minute request and provided prompt response to questions. She was also willing to meet my pup before walking. Showed up on time and was very sweet and patient with my little princess Vizsla!”
“Rachel was amazing and our two girls loved her! She really helped us when we were in a bind and needed someone to take them for a walk. We will definitely be looking to book with her in the future!”

About: I have 7 years of experience with my own pets as well as 2 years of experience in drop-in visits.
