1. Mike L.
“Mike walks Cali on a regular basis. Cali loves going on walks with Mike and is happy to see him. This particular walk was requested last minute. Mike was flexible and said he would help right away. He even asked if Cali needed to eat as well. It was a huge help and he is a fantastic dog walker!”

4. Luke W.
“Luke was a great dog sitter! My dog Rollie loved him! He was always reliable. I felt very comfortable having him enter my house and care for my pup! I highly recommend.”
5. Michelle A.
“Michelle has taken care of my pet several times in the past! As shy as my pet is, Michelle gained its trust and my pet loved her! Michelle’s very punctual and takes great direction when given specific information about my pet. Upon return from a trip I had, my pet was very happy and comfortable with Michelle. Not only that but, Michelle also made sure she kept my pet’s items/toys organized before she left! I can always count on her as a reliable and trusted pet sitter!”

“Meghan is a true dog-lover! She cares for her 2 labs, Sadie and Jade, as her children. Meghan has taken care of my pup, Ozzy, plenty of times over the past 2 years and has always exceeded my expectations of her responsibility. Even through doggy injuries, aggression, and feeding issues, she has always been a super reliable dog sitter. Most importantly, she loves Ozzy as her own! With her experience and love for dogs, I don't think twice about having her care for my pup, leaving me at ease that Ozzy is in good hands with Meghan!”

12. sydney l.
“I just started working with Sydney. She's very reliable and caring with my dog. My dog is old and struggling to walk at times. Sydney's availability has given me some free time to enjoy doing some things beyond dogcare.”
13. Stephanie S.
“Stephanie has a natural talent for taking care of pets, which makes her an exceptional pet sitter. Stephanie's approach to pet care is characterized by her patience and keen attention to detail. One of Stephanie's standout qualities is her ability to follow specific care instructions meticulously. She ensures that each pet receives the appropriate diet, exercise, and any necessary medical attention. Her observant nature allows her to quickly detect any changes in a pet's behavior or health, ensuring prompt and appropriate action.”
14. Raj N.
“Rag came to our house to meet Lola and she loved him (she really loves everyone). But he came over every day (5x per week) since that meeting. I used to work from home so I was worried about her going to the dog park but he agreed to take her for a specified time and return her home. It's been three weeks and we just booked our fourth week and he's been perfect. While I'm at work I'm able to see that she's playing with her friends at the dog park. He/s contacted me as appropriate on my direct line when he was unsure of something (I didn't put her leash on) and handled the situation apropatiely and with care. I would recommend him to anyone who wants their baby taken care of as if they are a part of their family. Baucae Lola is my daughter and I'm happy to say Raj is the best dog nanny I could ask for.”
15. Alena A.
“Excellent coverage, very responsive, very good with Bunna! Clearly communicated everything with us.”
16. Marilyn H.
“Our two boys (a german shepherd and a golden retriever) absolutely love Marilyn. We were away for ten worry-free days knowing that they were in good hands being well loved and well taken care of. Even now, when we walk the boys pass Marilyn's house, they'd often pull us close and sniff if she's home. Marilyn is the best. Our doggos say so.”
17. Sebastian A.
“All good!”
18. Luciana M.
“Katie and Iggy LOVED their walk with Luciana! She took several photos during their walk - each photo showing VERY happy pups! Luciana is an extremely caring, compassionate, and loving individual. She treated my pups as though they were her own. I HIGHLY recommend Luciana as a pet caregiver! Christine”
19. Jaylynn C.
“Our Boston terrier absolutely LOVES Jaylynn! Going away for a week, we left our pup at home with a relative who couldn’t take him in regular walks, but Jaylynn came every day to tire him out. She was prompt, communicative, and flexible. 10/10 would recommend”
20. Juliana L.
“Juliana was attentive to all the instructions and details we have about taking care of our dog and cat. Especially our dog who is a rescue and required some special needs to feel comfortable. She was consistent with the walks and time of day when we were out of town for a couple of days. She clearly loves animals and we are thankful for her being able to come so last minute.”
