“Dolla was excited to see Angela the moment she saw her and I knew it would be a good fit for us. Angela is nice and has a pleasant demeanor and I will work with her again”

“John was wonderful with both our dogs! He was on time, got to know them first, and won them over very quickly. Even our older dog who is very skittish took to John immediately for a walk this week. Would highly recommend!”

“Sam never fails to go above and beyond with her care. She gives long walks and even takes extra time to sit and give pets and love afterwards (and even checks food and water, how nice!) Our dogs absolutely adore her and she's always so helpful and gives us such peace of mind that our lil pups are in the best of hands. We honestly feel so lucky to have found such a reliable and trustworthy walker to keep our dogs happy while we're away!”

“Veronika is the best! I am home recovering from knee surgery and my dog is not thrilled about leaving me when she arrives. Veronika has done a great job coaxing her and getting her to walk!”


“Juliana is just great! Our dog loves her and is so excited for his walk every time he sees her. She takes extra special care of our dog and we couldn’t ask for anymore! Highly highly recommend Juliana for any dog owner and would give her higher than 5 stars if we could!”

“Truly the best! Ken has been working with my high energy, rambunctious pitbull mix every week for walks. He is so patient with our baby, and treats him like family. He even spends a little extra time with Kida after his walks to play with him! From the first moment I met Ken, I could tell that he is very passionate with what he does and has a lot of experience working with all sorts of dogs. He is also great with communication and gives me pictures/videos/updates after each walk. Kida blessed to have a friend like Ken around!”

“Joey is fantastic and our greyhound Happy loves him! He helped me with just a few days' notice to walk our dog after I broke my ankle. Joey communicated very well with me, took Happy on a nice walk each day despite the cold temperatures, and even offered to help me with anything else. He genuinely cares for the pets and people he helps. I highly recommend hiring Joey. I will definitely be reaching out to him again.”

John was simply fantastic. My pup warmed up to him immediately, he is gentle and clearly loves dogs. His communication was fabulous, the photos and updates he sent so welcomed, and he was on time for both days. We were immediately at ease with John and will rebook him without hesitation.

Veronika came to the rescue on very short notice. She handled my very timid chihuahua mix without any difficulty. She arrived right on time, sent photos of each walk with my dog and demonstrated an understanding of my dog's needs with much warmth. I found her to be a trustworthy and capable. I would hire her again without hesitation.
