“Renee took my dog for a couple of walks recently and was a pleasure to work with! She was very friendly, accommodating and great with communication. Will definitely use her in the future as the need arises! Highly recommend!”

“Andi was extremely responsive and easy to work with for my last minute dog walking booking! Andi was great with my dog Maddy, and I would definitely book with Andi again.”

“Rachel has been wonderful with our dog, Hazel. She’s been taking Hazel on long weekday walks and has truly gone above and beyond. Hazel used to pull and get easily distracted on walks, which made them challenging, and Rachel immediately offered to work with her on loose-leash walking. In just a short time, Hazel has improved so much and is now walking calmly, paying attention, and doing great on leash. Rachel is incredibly kind, patient, and attentive. She sends thoughtful updates and the cutest photos, and Hazel absolutely loves her and gets so excited when she arrives. We’re so grateful to have found Rachel and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog walker.”

About: I have a special place in my heart for dogs! I’ve been around dogs since I can remember. I have taken care of many animals for my own family and friends. I am also college athlete who loves to take dogs on walks as much as I can! I am currently working part time throughout the week but I am very flexible with those times so pet care can fit in very easily. I have a big fenced yard perfect for dogs to run and play! I live on a long street perfect for walks! I can also crate your pup if needed
About: I’ve spent the last four years taking care of pets for neighbors, family, and friend. I have built up knowledge about pets and their unique needs. I am experienced with young and elderly animals I’m currently a part time student in college so I have a lot of availability in afternoons and weekends. I’m very flexible with my schedules and availability I strictly follow the rules and instructions given to me by the pet parents. I am capable to administer medicine and crate animals if need be
“My dog has been very excited to go out on walks with Brooke and has been able to improve her stamina in her old age :-) Brooke is very communicative as well, friendly, takes awesome pics and really loves the dogs she takes care of. Highly recommend!”

“Juniper did a wonderful job with my dog Peach’s first walk! She took the time to meet with us a day beforehand to learn our routine and asked great questions. Her summary of the walk was well detailed, and she included some great pictures! Peach is nervous around strangers, and Juniper did a great job being aware and thoughtful of that. Overall Juniper was lovely to deal with and I feel great about trusting her regularly for walks with Peach.”

About: Experienced dog bather, sitter, and owner. I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, etc. Although I will not cut hair, with my grooming experience and with a willing dog I can trim nails and bath if needed. I have a dog park down the street if that is a part of your dogs routine. I have a large availability if sitting is needed for multiple days. I work 2 days a week but am flexible. I will be able to take on multiple day sitting with minimal time away from your dog/home. I understand dogs with specific needs and instructions. My pup is also particular, so please dont be afraid to let me know your needs and I can work with you to give your pup the best experience. I dont have a fenced in yard but I do live very close to a fenced in dog park, as well as walking trails directly next to me. I have a large car with a dog seat cover in the back if I need to take your pup to bark at the park. I prefer to dog sit in the clients home where the pup will be most comfortable but am willing to watch in my own home if its the right fit.
About: I had a corgi until I was 12 years old who I fed, walked, and played with for much of my childhood. I also have frequently walked my neighbors’ dogs and gone over to feed/watch them when they aren’t at home, including when my neighbor’s golden retriever was still a puppy, although I am also capable of handling big dogs too. I have always loved animals and, especially as an introvert, getting to hang out with them all summer is something I am more than happy to do! I am currently back home for the summer until around mid August, and this is the only form of work I’ll be doing while I’m here. Any activity I want to do is something that can be done at more or less any time, meaning my schedule will be very flexible and able to cater to what you need. I make sure to give the animal as much space as needed before jumping straight in. Some pets are more reserved and it can be tough for them to get used to a new person in their space, so I like to make sure I meet them where they’re at. I ask the owner any questions I have both in advance and also while they’re gone if something comes up. I like to be prepared and know where everything is and how to deal with any situation that might occur, so open communication is something I really strive for.
“Hope has been fantastic with my easily excitable pup! I was a bit worried because my pup has a tendency to pull on the leash and jump up on others when excited. Hope does a wonderful job of redirecting his behavior while on walks. My pup returns happy after each walk!”

“Claudia came through for me at the last minute when everyone else I talked through in Rover fell through. She was attentive and communicative throughout and had the perfect energy to match my dog's. It is reassuring to know that there is someone trustworthy to reach out to in the future.”

“Beverly and Sterling are knowledgeable, patient, and dependable. I have two rescue dogs I feel very protective of, they were very supportive and helpful getting both owner and dogs comfortable. They clearly have a passion for dogs, that matters to me. And my dogs love them!”

About: With over 25 years of experience, I offer more than just pet sitting - I bring expert care tailored to each animal's needs. From puppy training and leash skills to gentle senior care, meet pets where they are developmentally and emotionally. I'm especially skilled with high-anxiety pets (and their parents!) and provide a calming, trustworthy presence. I treat every animal like they're my own, because they deserve nothing less. As a graduate student, my schedule is flexible and thoughtfully managed. I intentionally balance my academic commitments to ensure I have ample time and energy to provide consistent, high-quality care. Pet sitting is not just a side job, it is a meaningful part of my life that brings me joy and grounding during my studies. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, structure, and love. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, clean environment with plenty of snuggles and attention. I have a secure, small backyard perfect for supervised potty breaks and fresh air. I'm comfortable with crate training and can support routines that involve crates, structured feeding and rest time. In your home, I aim to keep your pet's routines consistent and stress-free. I follow schedules, exercise needs, medication routines, and behavior plans closely.
