“I had such a great experience with my dog walker today! They did an amazing job walking both of my pups, and I really appreciate the care, patience, and attention they gave them. My pups came back happy, and it’s such a relief knowing they’re in good hands. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog walker! 🐶❤️”

“We’re so glad we found Alyssa. She was easy-going and stayed in great communication throughout, which meant a lot to us. Aoife and Klay can be a little particular and don’t always warm up to new people quickly, but Alyssa handled them effortlessly and they clearly adored her. It’s a relief to know they were in such good hands. We’d book her again in a heartbeat and recommend her without hesitation.”

About: Non-Smoker, car owner, long time dog parent. Available for exotic pets (lizards, snakes, tarantulas) when instructions are provided. House is single story with a fenced yard. My experience comes from the two 2 dogs I raised consecutively (now at peace). First was a small poodle named Zack raised from 5 years to a ripe 15. Then Boo, a terribly spoiled poodle bichon mix I’ve raised since puppyhood (see pictures). This has given me experience in all stages of life, including specialized knowledge in small dogs that require accommodations due to disability or age. Previous work experience at ASPCA for dogs and animals of all sizes. I work from home on my own schedule, so I am available at most times and hours, for both long term and short term. For walking as a solo service, I prefer daylight hours. Message anytime, but please call between 10am-6pm. I'm available for both boarding and house sitting. For house sitting, I would typically water plants as well, take in newspapers and packages, etc. I typically leave things as they are or better than I found them. My own house isn't very busy, so it's easy for me to notice if a pet needs extra attention or playtime, or if they're trying to get into something they shouldn't. Stairs aren't an issue. The glass screen door lets them watch the neighborhood as I sit. Fenced yard, clean house, nearby dog parks, and a safe quiet area. In the fenced yard, we have a stone patio and a garden of roses, hydrangeas, and a butterfly bush. A smaller metal fence guards the more sensitive plants. There's a "rest area" for pets that need frequent breaks. The clovers are growing back at the moment.

About: I've done pet sitting for family and friends for most of my life. I’ve taken care of dogs by making sure they’re well fed, they play, we go walking, and being able to give oral meds if they need. I will be available on marked days, usually weekdays as well as Sundays and occasional Saturdays if needed since l have a flexible schedule during the summer. I take care of my pets diligently and lovingly so I wouldn’t do it any other way for yours! I’m currently on summer break from college, so I’ll be able to give undivided attention to your little angel! I’ll be should be available most days for walking and dog sitting except for Saturdays. (But be sure to check my marked days!) I’m fine with your pet to play in my home freely (within reason haha). There’s also a park and a plain grass space near my home if they want to play and run around there. I do have two shy cats but they’re very nice and have experience being around dogs.

About: I spent twelve years caring for my German Shepherd, Tyson, who taught me the importance of patience, trust, & routine. Alongside him, I have cared for doggies of all breeds & sizes for over fifteen years. Friends & family have relied on me for walking, feeding, companionship, & staying with them for days at a time. I'm especially comfortable with large & strong breeds. I'm calm, attentive, & deeply respectful of each dog's unique personality- my goal is always for your pet to feel safe & loved while you're away! I'm happy to send photo updates so you can feel at ease as well! I will also care for your kitties! Hi! I’m Jade! I recently moved back to my hometown after spending the last five years living in Colorado, and I’m taking this season to slow down a little, spend time with family, and enjoy being back home. I’ve had a bit of a colorful career path! I’ve spent years as a private nanny and household manager, worked in property management, attended school for Interior Design, and now work in management and social media marketing. Through all of it, I’ve always loved work that involves caring for people, creating beautiful spaces, and making life a little easier for others. Outside of work, I’m a creative and an adventurer at heart. I love acrylic painting, interior design, hiking, cooking homemade recipes, road trips, and traveling to new places. Give me a beautiful trail, a little town I’ve never explored, a paintbrush, or something new to cook and I’m happy. I also had a dog of my own who I had to say goodbye to a few years ago, and I’ve really missed having that companionship in my everyday life. My current work gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day, with especially open availability on Sundays and Mondays. I’m happy to follow whatever routine makes your pet happiest—whether that’s long walks and adventures, backyard playtime, or lots of couch snuggles. Most importantly, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your little family member is with someone who will genuinely love and care for them. I take them to the dog park, long walks, roaming around in fenced in yards, & lots of snuggles. Whatever you are comfortable with and whatever your dog's typical routine is- I will make sure they are fulfilled.

About: I’ve had the pleasure of raising a dog from 9 weeks old to his current 13 years. I’ve been there every step of the way, from puppyhood to adulthood and senior years. Plus, my dog tore his ACL, so I know firsthand the challenges of keeping your pet safe and out of harm’s way, along with the need for special care and instructions. I am currently a senior student athlete in college with a flexible schedule. I wanted to find a part-time job that I would actually enjoy, and I have always loved being near animals. Coming back home to my dog is always the highlight of my trip, so being near dogs and getting to see the joy on their faces has always made me smile. I think pets are happiest when they’re in their own space, so I’d rather work at someone else’s home. Plus, getting to know the dog and the pet owners will really help everyone feel more comfortable.

About: I started doing walking and overnights when I was 7 with the help of my parents and my love for dogs has only grew since then! I now have been in the Veterinary medicine field for 5 years with many years of farm work before then. I’m very good with all types and temperaments of dogs due to my gentle and loving attitude towards animals. I am available 7 days a week 24 hours a day. I am looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend!!! I am currently home full time so I have the availability to do walks, drop ins and sitting at any time. This schedule also allows me extra time to specialize the care and needs of your pet. With my years experience in veterinary medicine I am able to tailor environmental needs to each pet I have the joy of working with. Just let me know their quirks, care needs or special requests and I can make it happen!

About: Have only had 9 months total of my life without a dog or a pack of them by my side. Your fur baby will be fostered as one of my own; their walk, run, or potty break is all about them! With guidance from you, we will move at their pace. If they want to go for a run... then we run! If they prefer to walk tree to tree and smell every flower, that's fine too! I am available early mornings and mid-days during the week. I also have availability nightly to check on the pups and make sure they're ready for bed. I look forward to meeting the needs of your family, if it be walking or running the dogs, or making sure they are comfortable in your home, just let me know. I am fortunate enough to have a remote role, so my schedule is usually set to my own dog's needs. I am by no means a gym rat or a marathon runner. Yet that doesn't stop me from getting in usually 2-6 miles a day, both walking and running. While my dog is crate trained, it would be great if yours is as well, for those few errands that may take me away for up to 4 hours at a time (a busy week would be 3 half days in the office)

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! Over the past ten years, I’ve had dogs of my own and couldn’t imagine life without them. I also have a cat who keeps me on my toes and makes every day brighter. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets, big and small, and I truly enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like they’re part of my own family. I currently work from home and I am a full time student. I have a flexible schedule everyday. I will be able to take care of your pet any day I care for pets with the same love and attention I give my own—making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and happy with plenty of play, walks, and cuddles.

About: My whole life we had cats and dogs. I have house sat for neighbors and friends with pets since I was ten years old. I currently own a rabbit. I have also cared for all kinds of rodents, fish, and reptiles. I have trained puppies and kittens and a bunny. I also cared for my older dachshund and gave him shots and necessary medications. I work part time teaching yoga throughout the week and have lots of availability. I only have custody of my kids every other week making my week without them a great time for extra hours and house sitting. I keep pets from being hungry, thirsty, or bored. I keep pets nicely groomed and their areas and things nicely cleaned. I offer direct focus and affection. I can walk or run with dogs. I love doing yoga on the floor and watching cats or my rabbit climb all over me and get affection.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 and have experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and family with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and check-ins. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I’m happy to follow specific instructions and give each pet the individual attention they deserve. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, some playtime, or simply someone to keep them company, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. 🐾❤️ I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to give your pets attention, playtime, walks, and care. I’m available most weekdays and weekends with advance notice! I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including my own five dogs. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, keep them supervised, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m also happy to crate your dog if needed and follow any specific care instructions you provide. 🐾❤️

Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
