1. Han N.
“Han did an amazing job taking care of my Mini Aussie, who’s pretty sensitive and doesn’t warm up to people easily. She was so patient and gentle, and it was clear she genuinely loves animals. My dog quickly felt comfortable with her, and I felt totally at ease leaving him in her care. I’d highly recommend Han to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pet!”
2. Agnes L.
“Agnes is amazing, communicative, reliable, and we can’t recommend her enough! She took her time to bond with Boba in the beginning to make him comfortable, now our little man happily looks forward to their walks!”

“Great”
7. Valeriia B.
“Valeriia is an awesome person that has a truly kind heart. She is responsible, careful and dedicated. When it comes to important things such as looking after an animal I have no doubts that Valeriia can do that perfectly. I personally observed her taking care of our cat Olivka from the very first steps and she still keeps doing that professionally. Valeriia has a variety of experience with dogs and dogs always love her. Valeriia’s passion with dogs is something wonderful and I can see her as an ideal person to look after the dogs, cats or other pets.”
8. Julia D.
“Julia has walked our 80lb shepherd/pittie mix twice now and does a great job every time. Having met her, I can say her energy is very calm and grounding, and Topher immediately took a liking to her!”
9. Alex K.
“Alex was great! She was very communicative. By the way she talked you can tell she clearly cares about the well being of your dog. Sadie doesn’t usually let new dog walkers walk her far but she let Alex! Will definitely use again!”
10. Paula S.
“Paula walked Chester twice last Saturday for the first time. She was terrific and kept me up to date throughout. I provided very detailed instructions around my dog's allergies and she was attentive to them. It was much appreciated. Thank you, Paula!”
11. Audrey C.
“Audrey is a dog lover through and through. Having raised two adorable labs, she knows how to create a fun and healthy environment. From playtime to long walks, Audrey will take good care of your dog. Also she’s communicative, so she’ll keep you up to date with photos and texts.”
12. Mia D.
“Mia was great with our golden retriever! She was super responsive, sent updates, and pics of our best bud. We booked her short notice too and she was super flexible!”
13. Alyssa M.
“She is such a great dog walker, really takes her time to get to know the dogs. I have two rescues and they’re usually a bit hesitant to meet new people but after a few times they started to love her. She also took the time to make them comfortable before walking them. I will definitely be using her a lot more often.”
14. Jessie Z.
“Jessie is so flexible and communicative! Luna felt comfortable with her immediately. So thankful!”
15. Anna W.
“Anna is very compassionate and caring, giving 100% to every task she accepts. She is reliable and organized so you can be sure that your dog will receive the best TLC when with Anna. She has a big backyard for a dog to roam and lives near plenty of dog friendly parks. She can walk, run, and throw a frisbee like no other person I know. You can be sure your dog will be entertained, loved, and pampered in the fullest.”
16. Owen H.
“Great job!!”
17. Anne A.
“Anne is amazing. I had to go out of town for a family issue at the same time my partner was scheduled to work a series of double shifts, leaving our 4-year-old Italian Greyhound, Roxie, alone for too long. Anne totally came through, working with our schedules and the weather to take Roxie out and also just give her a cuddle and a treat when it was too cold for a long walk. I had never worked with a dog sitter/walker of any kind before and the whole process was so seamless and gave me such peace of mind while I was away. She was great with Roxie and we will definitely be booking with Anne again!”
18. Amanda C.
“Amanda was so amazing with my 6 month old! She followed all of the instructions I left for her- I can tell she really cared for my dog and that meant the world. She communicated the entire time and sent pictures and updates. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
19. Edrick L.
“I've known Edrick for several years and can confidently say he's one of the most caring and attentive individuals I've ever met. His love for dogs is truly unparalleled. Edrick treats every pet, especially dogs, with the same affection and responsibility as he does with his own back in Indonesia. Having entrusted him with my dog Chalice on several occasions, I've witnessed first-hand how Edrick not only adheres to Chalice's routines but also goes above and beyond by providing extra care, love, and mental stimulation through training. Anyone looking for a responsible and loving pet caregiver would be fortunate to have Edrick look after their pet. His dedication to ensuring the happiness and well-being of animals is evident in every interaction he has with them.”
