“Fernie had a great first day care experience with Jodee and AJ! We did a meet and greet the day before with Maverik and their other regular day care pup, Winnie, to make sure everyone was compatible. Fernie had a blast sniffing and running all around the yard and Jodee sent me picture and status updates throughout the day.”

“KIMBERLY IS THE BEST!!! She took the most amazing care of my pup Casper yesterday. He came home happy, tired, and with a huge smile on his face. She was super communicative and an awesome sitter. Not to mention the pictures she shared — she should become a pet photographer!”
“Luciana was amazing with our puppy! Communication was excellent, she sent videos and updates during the stay. My dog loved her and was happy to meet her. I will definitely book again.”
“This last week Irene and James have been a lifesaver! I now need to have my dog in daycare full time which she is not used to and usually very nervous. I’ve had my dog stay with Irene and James for dog sitting and could not be happier. My dog has thrived staying with them. She is comfortable, eats, drinks water, and interacts with them instead of shutting down. I have been so amazed by their care of my dog and the consistent text and photos updates throughout the day. So thankful to have found Irene and James to care for my dog and fully recommend them for any dog care services!”
“Xiaohan did a fantastic job with Lady! She was so great at sending photos and keeping me updated with whatever was going on with Lady. I would 100% book with her again!”
About: I have 4 years of experience as a reliable and caring dog walker, providing daily walks, exercise, and companionship for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I prioritize each pet’s safety, well-being, and routine, and have built strong relationships with both pets and their owners through consistent, trustworthy care. I am a recent grad school graduate and I am available to walk your dog when it fits your schedule. I have a flexible schedule to help walk, watch and care for your dog but I am mainly available during the weekdays. I care for the dogs I watch as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. I follow their individual routines, including feeding, walking, and any special instructions from their owners. I provide plenty of playtime, attention, and affection, and I always monitor their behavior to ensure they're happy and healthy. Whether it’s a quick walk or extended pet-sitting, I aim to create a stress-free experience for both the dogs and their owners.

“My dog, Oats, loved his day with Brandon! Oats was there from about 8am-5:30pm. Brandon took him on 2 long walks, gave me multiple updates throughout the day (with lots of photos), and let him hang out wherever he felt more comfortable. Oats was so tired once he got home! It went so well that I'll be having Brandon take care of Oats when I got out of town for a week at the end of the month. Amazing experience!”

Jena is incredibly kind, attentive, and clearly has a natural way with animals. She went above and beyond—sending me regular updates, photos, and even taking him on extra-long walks when the weather was nice. My dog came back happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It’s not easy to leave your pet with someone else, but Jena made the whole experience stress-free and reassuring. I would trust her again in a heartbeat, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and loving dog sitter.”
