“Ashley is wonderful!!!!!”


5. Megan K.
“Megan is a guru with animals especially dogs. She took care of my ridgeback when I was on vacation for 2 weeks and I am usually very picky about who I let take care of my pet. Megan is the type of dog sitter to go above and beyond for your pet and not just check in every so often and mindlessly walking your dog. You can tell she loves what she does and is very responsible especially for owners who are particular about what their dogs eats, what times they walk and other common tendencies. The cherry on top is that she years of experience working in companies that specialize in dog grooming and dog sitting so I was worry free when I was away. I would defiantly recommend. 5 Stars.”


6. Kate D.

“We can't say enough wonderful things about Kate! From the moment we met, it was clear she has a genuine love for dogs and our Harvey absolutely thrives during their walks. Kate consistently go above and beyond, making sure Harvey gets plenty of exercise, and mental stimulation. We always receive detailed updates with photos, which gives us complete peace of mind knowing Harvey is having a blast. Kate has become a trusted part of our family and we would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-notch dog walker.”

About: I’ve mostly owned cats myself but I’ve done some dog sitting/dog walking for family and for work. I love all animals as if they were my own and enjoy having them lighten up my day. I’m currently looking to take on some appointments part time. I’m pretty open for the start of 2025 and may take on more availability as time goes on. I’ve done some dog sitting/dog walking for work in the past and it was a pretty simple process. The more information I have about the pet the better. My appointments usually started with me making my way inside and greeting the pet at the home. Spending some time giving them attention and making sure their set up at home is all good. After a bit I would get there harness and or leash on and make our way outside for our walk. I would pay attention to the dog and talk to them or give them words of encouragement throughout our visit. Make our way around and back to the house where if they needed to be fed I would handle food, give them some fresh water, check out their surroundings and make sure their good before I leave myself. I love being able to foster a relationship with the pets I work with. Seeing them get so excited to see me really brightens my whole day.


8. Camryn M.

“Camryn is very responsive and Shelby warmed up to her very quickly!! Highly recommend.”


9. Kristina P.

“Kristina was great! She followed all of my instructions perfectly and was super sweet to my dog, even when my dog was being a bit difficult. She communicated well and was respectful of my home while I was away. Would definitely book with her again.”


10. Gary B.

“Gary is always on time and you can immediately tell he is a professional dog walker. He dresses and handles my 60 lbs. dogs like a true alpha. He makes sure to keep them safe while walking them. My mother-in-law drove by him while he was walking out dogs and she told me he moved them aside (there is no sidewalk) and paid attention to his surroundings. He knows dog behavior so he teaches me about them and why they do what they do. Hands down a true and reliable dog walker.”


11. Sumona G.
“It feels like there was invisible string that led my sister’s dog, Ivy to her. Flashback to 2021, when things were falling apart fast during the pandemic. Everything about life was so uncertain. Everything, except how Sumona fell instantly in love with Ivy, a rescue dog from Georgia with a mean growl and fearlessness in her snarl. Sumona never let Ivy’s defensive traits deter her from showering her with love. Ivy glued herself to Sumona with an unspoken loyalty and devotion that only a dog can give. With time, Sumona has managed to melt down Ivy’s tough, anti-hero exterior with lots of cuddles and training. Now, Ivy is one of the sweetest dogs and has planted firmly planted her roots in our hearts. All in all, Sumona would not be the same person today without Ivy; and I know that she will show all the Rover dogs the same type of love and compassion.”


12. Whitney & Michael T.

“Whitney and Michael were very easy to work with, and did a great job with Bacon. Will definitely book with them again!”


13. Joel Y.
“I have known Joel for many years and seen him care for his dogs along with the dogs of family and friends. He is patient and gentle with dogs of all sizes. I would recommend Joel as a pet sitter and feel confident that he will give your pets the attention they deserve. Highly recommend!”

17. Christina D.
“Christina has watched my 2 year old Samoyed multiple times and our pup LOVES her! She gives updates, sends us pictures, and makes us feel like our dog has the absolute best caregiver when we can’t be there. She is fun, bubbly, and so sweet!! I would recommend her to anyone!!!”


18. Victoria H.
“Victoria has lived with animals all of her life. Victoria has taken care of dogs in her home. At a young age, she requested a dog of her own and took excellent care of "Suzy" until her passing. She loves playing with our dogs and has on numerous occasions taken the dogs overnight and on long weekends to care for them when we have been away. She takes them on long walks and plays with them. Victoria is always conscious of the dogs needs and makes sure they are taken care of. Victoria is definitely a very responsible individual and would make an excellent and loving caregiver to your pet.”


19. Luke B.
“I travel quite often and Luke is always available to help me out caring for my cats. My boys love him, they play with Luke as soon as he walks in the apartment. Luke is very reliable and I consider him part of the family.”


20. Krishna P.
“Krishna took care of my dog Belle when we were on vacation for two weeks. She was so kind and gentle. My dog has a lot of anxiety and she was great in caring for my little angel. She followed all the instructions for food properly and she made sure there was enough play time throughout the day.”
