2. Dakota W.

“Dakota was friendly, flexible, and reliable. Sam always enjoyed his time with Dakota. Dakota interspersed neighborhood walks & trips to the dog park with visits to Barnes & Noble and other places. We will use Dakota again without reservation and highly recommend him to care for your pet.”


3. Aiden M.

“Aiden is the best walking companion for our doggo! Amazing communication and also very accommodating when schedules change. Our dog had surgery and Aiden was so wonderful keeping him company, in addition to feeding him and giving him medication. We’re so grateful for Aiden’s help!”


4. Chelsea C.
“Chelsea is so good with my dog, Darwin. She truly loves him and is great about giving me updates on him, playing with him, and following his strict diet while I’m away. I’ve seen her out and about with other dogs who seem just as happy as Darwin to have her around!”


5. Samantha S.
“Sam is amazing. Very trustworthy and reliable. She’s the only person I’d leave my dog with. When she watched my dog he was very anxious and stressed as it was a new environment but she did everything she could to keep him relaxed and happy. My dog has this weird fear of slick floors and she laid out blankets on her floor so he could walk around comfortably! She also sent me a lot of pictures and videos where I could see that he went on walks, played with her dog Daisy and even took a nap on her couch.”


6. Caitlin M.
“It is hard to leave your pets, but Caitlin makes it a little easier. She truly treats them like her own and they are always excited to see her. I cannot recommend her enough. She is responsible, reliable and a very caring person. 10/10 caregiver.”


7. Emil F.

“I'm very thankful to have found Emil. I work in retail and consequently work almost every weekend. Emil walks my little chihuahua for me every Saturday and Sunday. He's very reliable and I never worry that he won't be able to make it. He also responds to any requests or questions very quickly. I wholeheartedly recommend Emil if you need someone to help care for your pups!”


8. Shane & Meg M.
“Shane is great with animals. He has a very calming personality that animals seem to respond to. He pet-sat since his teen years, grew up with animals, and has owned pets of his own, taking that responsibility very seriously. He is very conscientious of being on time and making sure the animals are well taken care of and loved on! :)”


9. Zach D.
“Zach does a wonderful job taking care of our dogs. They love playing with him and snuggling up to him. He is conscientious and responsible, making sure they get their food and medications on schedule and attending to their needs throughout the day.”




10. Laura H.

“Laura is friendly, professional, and patient with our shy dog. We've been very happy with her and will continue to book her for our dog walking needs!”


11. Caroline M.
“Caroline works with me at the shelter and has such a hard work ethic. She cared deeply for people, animals and their well being. She also has pet sit for my spoiled kitty and has been very thorough and trustworthy. She kept my place tidy and kept me posted on my girl! I would definitely recommend Caroline to anyone looking for a reliable caretaker for their furry friend!🐾💛”


12. Bradley S.
“Bradley is so sweet. He walks my golden retriever for me twice a week, and he is just the best. He is always so happy to see my dog, and my dog loves him. I think he's an excellent dog walker and a great dog care taker!”




13. Hope B.

“Thank you! Sorry to hear she pooped in the crate. She’s never done that unless she had diarrhea. Was it a normal poop or loose? Maybe she needed to poop this morning and I hurried her back inside too soon. I appreciate you walking her and looking after her. I’ll reach out for walks in the future.”


14. Marianna J.
About: I have had our dog for 12 years now, so we're experienced with puppies through senior needs! I regularly watch friends' and family members' dogs, and I'd love to keep your furbabies happy and comfortable! I have a flexible schedule since I work from home. I am very active and love long walks with your fur baby! Available on short notice as well. I would prefer to care for our clients' pets in their own homes, due to a two-year-old and an older dog at our home. I are very respectful of your personal space and well-regimented, so no pet will be left unnurtured!


15. Tiziana G.
“Tiziana has an incredible passion for pups, and cats! She was very accommodating and is loving, respectful and knowledgeable when it comes to caring for your fur-babies!”




16. Mary M.
“Mary has always been great with dogs ever since she was a kid. She had a dog walking business in middle school and was responsible for several dogs several times a week. She also has grown up with dogs since she was in elementary school and now has her own dog, Finn, that she loves and takes wonderful care of. She has even taken care of my husband and I’s crazy dog (a Brittany with TONS of energy and separation anxiety) and done a fabulous job. I’d highly recommend her as a dog sitter!”




17. Jill M.
About: I have 3 adopted best friends. I have experience with dogs of all different ages and temperaments. I love going for walks and hikes with my pups. I work full time in healthcare which makes me unavailable 3 days a week. My schedule varies week to week but I am more than happy to help you on my off days. I have a fenced in yard that my 3 furry friends love to run around and play. My senior dog gets multiple walks a day. Dogs are allowed on all of my furniture but will follow any house rules provided.


18. Susan T.

“Susan was very prompt and loved Sampson so much. She made multiple visits in a week to care for my dog and did a wonderful job!”


19. Ashley H.
“Ashley is my go to dog sitter! We have 3 dogs, one of which now elderly, and we have all the trust in her that all of them will get everything they need while we’re away. Ashley has been our dog sitter for the past 5 years and you should see how much they love her! It’s an absolute ease of mind to be able to enjoy a vacation and not have to stress about the pups. Not to mention she always provides lots of photos or cute videos of them 😊”
