“Caroline is so sweet with my dog Ellie, you can tell she really loves animals. She’s communicative and easy to schedule with, highly recommend for dog walking!”
“Niah has been a wonderful part of Princeton Antonio’s daily routine, and he gets extra excited whenever she arrives! She’s energetic, caring, and incredibly thoughtful. One of the things I appreciate most is how she always sends me sweet photos of Princeton that I can share with my mother in Chicago (who, by the way, adores her St. Louis-based grand-dog). Rain or shine, Niah shows up every evening without fail. Her dependability and connection with Princeton have been incredibly helpful while I've been recovering from a broken ankle. She has my highest recommendation to anyone who needs a dog walker or pet sitter.”
“Uğer could not be more kind and patient with my energetic young dogs. He has also been reliable and very communicative as a dog walker. You can really tell how much he loves dogs. I could not recommend him higher and will request his services any time I need care for my pups.”
“Jamie was freaking awesome. Communication was sweet and responsive and my pup was exceptionally well taken care of, even with medications and geriatric needs.”
“Jessica is the best! Maggie loves her, and she sends me the best pictures of my four-legged baby. I feel so relieved knowing that Maggie is in good hands when I’m away.”
“Jenn was amazing to my pup, Elton (and his little cat brother Balou)! She was extremely prompt and communicative and I never worried about my animals when they were in her care 🐾”
“Kyani is great. Kind, trustworthy, dependable and helpful. I have hired her twice and will be using her services in the future. I highly recommend her. And best of all, my dog loves her! That says a lot to me because I trust his judgment.”
“Danielle was great! She arrived right on time and was very communicative and easy to get ahold of. she also took so many pictures which I loved! Would definitely recommend!”
“Jingru is absolutely the best. She has been regularly walking my border collie (Argos) for a couple months now. She's been very reliable but has been very reasonably flexible with me. I work long hours (scientist) so it's been a tremendous help. She regularly takes him to a lovely dog park of which I am a member and he absolutely adores her. I've come to terms with the fact that given the choice he might pick her over me. I've only seen them together once (key exchange). He saw her at a distance after having not seen her for a full week and immediately started loudly crying from excitement. He doesn't cry or bark in general or for anyone, but he just really loves her specifically. I highly recommend Jingru, she might capture your pets heart, but you can be sure your pet will adore her.”
“Sarah has been fantastic! She’s really good with both of my pups despite them having polar opposite personalities. She’s very professional and a great communicator. Would highly recommend.”

About: I grew up with two amazing dogs, Lassie and Maci. They weren’t just pets—they were my best friends.

Although I can’t have pets in my home right now, I miss that companionship every day—which is why I’d love to help you care for your furry family member.
