“Chelsea has been a wonderful and reliable walker for my dog, Hoagie, for several months. She does a great job of keeping me informed on how things are going on the walks and always take some nice pictures. She even brought a toy or two as a Christmas gift. I highly recommend Chelsea and so does Hoagie.”
“Lauren has been a blessing! My dog is older and she takes her time with him out on his walks (he sometimes doesn't walk so well). She is considerate, professional, and I just love her!!”
About: I've lived with animals pretty much my entire life. I've had two dogs, two rats, a mouse, a ferret, and seven cats total. I often pet sit my friends and families dogs and cats and even guinea pigs and geckos. So while I don't have any trained professional experience in pet care, I do have an abundance of personal experience. I absolutely adore animals so I will do my best to treat yours with as much care as I have. This is my full time job so I will be available for all of my listed services every day of the week from 8 am - 10 pm preferably in day light hours. I am very flexible with my hours so I can prioritize your schedule. While walking your pet I will remain vigilant to ensure its safety. I will follow any rules/instructions given to me such as how/if to interact with other people/animals.
About: I limit the number of pets so they get personalized love and attention. From shy senior cats to high-energy puppies, I have had and worked with all ages and needs. I provide frequent updates catered to the owner’s request. I like to build trust through consistence and long-term relationships so your pet sees a familiar face and is happy. I am retiring from teaching and will have a part time work-from-home job and will have plenty of time for love and cuddles with your pets. I walk several times a day so your dog (or walking cat), gets plenty of exercise. I have a fenced in covered patio so they get plenty of fresh air! Again, I walk several times a day, have a park at the end of my road, I have a fenced in patio and there is a dog park within walking distance of my home. If they ride well in a car, I will take them to a big park for walks and dog park socialization. I have had dogs since I was born and cats all of my adult life. I have watched many animals for friends, families, neighbors, etc. I have had rabbits, turtles, fish, iguanas as well. I have a special place in my heart for animals.
“I’ve never had someone check on my dog in my home before. I am so glad I found Ashley and that she agreed to check in and walk my dog Kenya. I needed help last minute, and she agreed to walk my dog so quickly. She sent pictures and great updates about their walk and how Kenya did. I had peace of mind at work knowing that Kenya was getting her exercise and some affection. I will definitely continue to book with Ashley!!”

He let me know in advance his availability which I appreciate greatly because I am a planner. He follows all of my instructions perfectly and takes into account my dog's senior age, quirks, the weather conditions, etc. to make sure my dog is as safe as possible. Dogs are great judges of character and my dog has been happy with Christof from the moment they met. My dog and I are thrilled to have found Christof! I highly recommend him to anyone in need of pet care!”

Cindy M.
“Cindy walks my puppy several times a week and she is fantastic! She is always so kind and gentle with her, and is helping her learn how to walk like the goodest girl. I have a couple rules - like using a gentle leader and staying away from the busy four lane road near us - and Cindy has always been respectful of them, which gives me so much peace of mind while they are out. I know I can trust Cindy to give her a safe, fun, and (hopefully!) tiring time. And judging by how happy my puppy always is to see her, I know she agrees!”

Mandie did very well with our really shy COVID-19 rescue pup! We hired her to walk him and take him around the neighborhood, so he can get experience with other people. She did very well with him. She also did a great job with Tasha, our Siberian Husky, who just loves a good walk around the park!
Carlie from the get-go has been communicative, caring, attentive, and professional. I have a nervous dog who can be high maintenance and she took careful note of all his neurotic tendencies (: They hit it off and it’s a relief to have peace of mind about who’s care he is in. Highly recommend!
