“Emma is great! She was able to take my appointment very quickly and has always been promptly on time. She seems to have a deep love for animals and I look forward to many walks from her. She is a great addition to my dog’s day.”
About: I've personally grown up with pets, especially dogs, of all sizes and I am comfortable taking care of them all. For the last 10 years I have been doing it professionally at doggie daycare, pet-sitting, dog walking, training and boarding facilities, and any other services for dogs and cats! I will be there when you can't! I'm currently working part-time, and I am looking to grow a cliental in this location. I would love to schedule caring for your loved ones into my life! Pets with me are having a great time with several walks around the neighborhood a day. For our fetch playing friends we will run until exhausted! If you are on vacation, they will be too! I love to keep a dog busy and happy!
About: I’ve owned large dogs my whole life and have been through the training process with all dogs, so I am well equipped at walking and handling animals. I have a very flexible schedule and I am available for pet care at any hour and day besides on Friday nights where I have a part-time job. In my home, the dogs are fed twice a day with treats between feedings. Everyday we make sure to get in a long walk and or a game of fetch for some daily exercise

“Stuart had an issue getting my dog to go back in my home after her walk was over. Christmas Eve wanted to stay laying on the grass outside. Stuart immediately contacted me for assistance in getting Chrissy back in the home. She finally was coaxed to oblige with her favorite dog treat. Thank you again Stuart”
About: I've taken care of family/friends pets (walks, feed, play) on and off over the years and I have fallen in love with it. I now have two loving cats that are my world, Cookie & Waffle. They're actually the best. I am working part time in a healthcare office in the mornings, and am available after 2pm to take care of your pets needs EXCEPT Mondays. I am NOT available. I have my own cats on a pretty typical schedule of feeding in the AM and PM. Playtime and occasional treats. My assisted grooming a couple times a month (Brushing and nail clipping). I would follow whatever the client needed to my best ability.
“Jamie is a first-class companion to our 5-month old pup, Rosie. We were nervous about using a sitter for the first time, but Jamie’s calm, kind demeanor put us at ease right away when he came to meet Rosie days before the walk. Day of, Jamie sent us the sweetest updates with photos to assure us that she was not only well-cared for, but having fun too. Thank you Jamie - we can’t wait to book you another visit with Rosie soon!”
About: Hi! My name is Eddy! I’ve had dogs my whole life, so I truly understand how much love, attention, and care they need. I’m always outside and active, which means your pup and I will enjoy plenty of playtime and fresh air—whether that’s walks, fetch, or just exploring new spots. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every dog like they’re my own. You can trust that your furry friend will get lots of exercise, affection, and belly rubs while you’re away. I currently work nights, so I have all the time during the day to walk your pup before 5pm! I’m available every Sunday as well I have a fenced yard with lots of space and shade for your furry friend to run around and to cool down if needed too!
About: I have experience with all dogs sizes, especially large breeds. I watched my childhood dogs go from puppies to seniors. From this, I’m able to administer medicine. I currently work from home remotely, so it is very flexible for me. With my current houses, I am able to bring my laptop and work there to allow no interruptions into your pet’s daily routine I care for your pets as if they were my own. When I’m in your home, I tried to make it as if I was never there to allow you to feel fully relaxed up upon coming home from your time away.
“Diana is an absolute GEM. My dog (and cats) love when she comes for her weekly walk with my little man. She brings a fabulous energy and is so sweet to all of my pets. She goes above and beyond, taking her time with my dog to play a quick fetch or giving the cats some scratches. Can’t say enough how glad we are to have a solid walker. As new dog moms, she’s relieved a lot of anxiety about how his day is going while we’re at work. I feel very comfortable leaving my pets in her care.”
“Sarah has been absolutely wonderful with taking care of my baby boy! From the very beginning, she’s shown a genuine love and care for him that puts my mind at ease. She has such a warm and friendly personality, and it’s clear she treats all the fur babies she cares for like her own. I always look forward to her updates—she sends the sweetest photos from their walks, and it’s so comforting to know he’s getting plenty of love, attention, and belly rubs while I’m working long hours. Her reliability, thoughtfulness, and clear passion for animals really stand out. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet caregiver”
“Devon took my dog out for walks for three days when I was travelling. Everything went as planned and judging from the (absolutely lovely) pictures she sent through my dog really had an excellent time. Devon is punctual, a true dog lover and very communicative. I would recommend her to anyone whose dog need extra walks.”
About: Ive always walked my personal dogs since I was young. I know how time consuming it could be. Here to help! Open to anything dog care. It fits perfect. I wake up early, so i can look forward for any bookings I may get. I have more time than I need during the day for Dog care I live at a house with a backyard that is fenced which also has a patio. A ton of grass space with shade & my nice flowers are safe.
About: I’ve always grown up with a dog in the family. I understand the connection piece with dogs and find great joy in spending more time with them than humans at times. I raised my own pup from 14 years old and intend to spread my love for more as it fills my heart to be with dogs and make a difference along the way. I’m pretty flexible! I have an open and flexible schedule. I can do overnights, and long hours of catering to your pet if need be so they don’t get lonely. I always love a good walk in nature and witnessing them play without rushing the experience. I talk to dogs like humans and even teach them a few tricks I taught my own pup. I make sure they feel loved and entertained and love keeping busy. I’m very attentive to time scheduling so when they need to go out again or eat, I make sure all is handled. I also give lots and lots of love.
About: I have eleven years of dog sitting/boarding experience and will love and care for your pet like it is my own. I am a current volunteer for Guiding Eyes for the Blind and have many years of experience in puppy training. I am available for walks during the day weekdays & weekends. I work from home so I am available for boarding weekdays & weekends with availability to provide multiple walks during the day. My home is pet safe and friendly, with a spacious yard for exercise and play. If boarding I can offer three walks a day and your pet will sleep in my home (a clean sanitized bed will be provided if needed). I am happy to take your pet on a hike or run if preferred for sitting or walking services. In addition, I provide countless belly rubs, kisses, and snuggles.
“Thank you so being so patient with my anxious baby. He truly must’ve thought you were taking him from me but he’ll get used to you soon enough! He’s never had a dog walker or been left alone with anyone but family, so thank you again for your patience and understanding!”

Jolene W.
“Jolene was so helpful with my Weimaraner Shenzy. I've never seen my dog so happy. You can tell Jolene put a lot of time and effort into looking after my sweet girl and she even taught me a thing or two about how these dogs should be raised. If you need someone attentive to your dog I can't recommend her enough. I'm so glad to have found her, and Shenzy didn't want to say goodbye to her either. My former couch potato pup of seven years seems more lively than ever now thanks to just a few small changes Jolene helped me make in her environment. I'm definitely going to have to make some plans so Shenzy can have more play dates with her new friend.”

Margaux T.
“Margaux is AMAZING with our temperamental Cat (aka lion) Georgie. It is difficult to leave our Georgie as he is not very friendly with many people and is our baby, oh come on you know your pets are your kids too , family we would do anything for. So their care is so important in our absence. The minute he met Margaux there was a calm about him and an understanding that she would let him be him. Over time through many visits and stays at our home she became family to him. The mutual respect they have developed is more of a friendship. She is the only one that he will meow hello at and talk to (not even me). Who would have ever thought? We left Georgie for an entire week with Margaux and we did not worry one bit, he was taken care of as if he was her very own. Not only were we at ease with her presence in our home but she often texted us updates and pictures which were comforting. Margaux has always respected our home and care instructions for our Georgie as she is very detail oriented and timely. I can not give her enough praises and I am sure Georgie would agree. Danielle”

Isabelle S.
“Isabelle is a reliable dog lover who stayed at our home to care for our two dogs, one which has frequent accidents in the house. Thanks to her diligence about taking them on long walks and attention to their needs, our pups were accident-free and happy as can be. She is responsible and communicative, returning texts and phone calls immediately. Our home was left immaculate and our dogs were given their meds, played with and loved. She is all that we had hoped for and more.”
Brianne D.
“Brianne is a dog whisperer. Besides my dog, I have witnessed dogs gravitate to her and whimper as she walks away. My dog once followed her out to her car and jumped in it. To say she is caring and loving is an understatement. Her positive energy speaks for itself. Anyone (human or animal) who has Brianne in their lives is lucky!”
