1. Julie C.
“Julie was the best. She came over for a meet and great with my fur babies and myself. Explained their daily routine, snacks, food etc. I have an older dog and a bigger dog that's still young and they absolutely loved her. I got updates and pictures everyday also she let me know how of they went to the bathroom and what they did when they went. My neighbors saw her come to my place and they said she was so sweet she took them on walks, played outside and they said the kiddos were happy. I felt comfortable being gone for a week and my kiddos being able to stay in their own environment. Great communication, attitude and she really loves animals. I won't have anyone else but Julie watch my fur babies. Thanks Julie. You're the BEST”

About: Hello community 💟 When it comes to dog walking I'm your gal! Walks with me are both about Enrichment and safety and I work very hard to make sure I meet that expectation 💟 I have had lots of experience with dogs and cats from volunteering to my own, i have worked as a kennel tech, I have dog training experience, and I continously am always expanding my knowledge in dog communications, behaviors, nutrition and so much more💛 Currently I am enrichment dog coach and do more things on the side like personal enrichment classes and take doggies on trail adventures. Hope to hear from you soon😊 I'm currently a homeschooling mom so my schedule is pretty flexible and that makes it easy to fit in your furry family members. I know that can be a big challenge when looking for a walk around their schedule or drop in to fit their needs.💛 I have a very well mannered dog who loves making friends we do crate if needed and we do lots of Enrichment to make sure all their needs are met🩵

“Erica was WONDERFUL! She responded promptly to our last minute request for a drop-in visit for our pup, Olive. Erica sent us updates about the visit with photos! We hope to use Erica’s services again in the future. I submit my highest recommendation”
9. Michelle K.
“Michelle is amazing! This was the first time we booked her to spend two weeks with our boys. She left us really awesome narratives of her visits that made us feel close to our boys. Our kitties received lots of love and the pictures looked like they had tons of attention and love. She communicated closely with us for any issues, and was a life savior when she informed us of signage in our complex about maintenance we were unaware of. Her informative text allowed us to make arrangements so that our car wouldn't be towed. I highly recommend her services, and my partner and I will for sure be using her services again.”
10. Gillian P.
About: Growing up with a menagerie of dogs, cats, and farm animals, I believe that pets are family and they reflect the love that they receive! I've helped train puppies, assist elder dogs, and have experience giving medication to animals. I work full time, 8-5, but am available to house sit overnights! I can stay over night any day of the week and be more available on the weekends. I am good at walking dogs, feeding on time, and giving lots of attention! I am very used to cuddling with animals at night, and am familiar with stripping bedding, as well as house cleaning and plant care.

17. Makenna V.
“Makenna was prompt, careful, and thoughtful. I think my kitty loved her and I would welcome her back any time. My cat isn't the easiest personality to deal with, but Makenna seemed to win her over.
