Emily was great! Availed herself last minute on Valentines Day to walk my little guy, not once but twice. She maintained communication throughout the entire time and I know my boy was well taken care! Thank you Emily, we will be reaching out again: Linus seemed happy and content!

About: I've got 7 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats. I enjoy getting to know them and giving them a great walk around the neighborhood! I am available this winter if 2025/2026. I'm already booked on Christmas & New Year's Eve. My schedule is open and I hope to meet up soon. I live in a 2 story apartment one block away from a park on the harbor. It's a quick trot for any walks or socializing. My yard does not have a fence.

About: I've had pets since I was 10, and each one has had a significant impact on my life. That's why I now want to dedicate myself to helping them, because I believe they mean so much to me. When my family traveled, they always entrusted their pets to me because they saw how important they are to me I could work part-time after 3 pm, which is when my regular job allset, but if I'm ever needed full-time, I'd also be willing to cover the entire schedule, and I'm available on weekends as well. I have a large house, I also have space behind the house, and if you want me to keep your pet in a cage or something you tell me to, I would just obey your rules

Jeanne was so good with my two pups! She was so kind and caring with them! She went above and beyond giving them extra love and homemade treats! She took them out for a walk while I was getting married and made sure we had nothing to worry about with the dogs! She made sure to stay a little extra and play with them! Very personal and professional! Definitely will use her in the future!

Heather is wonderful! Maizie cozied up to her immediately, and it's super-clear she and Heather have a tight bond even after just a couple of walks (and belly rubs..). And I get to come home at the end of the day to a very happy and calm pup.

About: What Sets me Apart? Love, Experience, and Trust. I'm just not a dog walker — I'm a lifelong animal lovers with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. We know how important it is to find someone you can truly trust when you can’t be there. What makes me different is simple: I lead with care. I don’t rush through walks or treat this like a numbers game. Every dog I work with gets our full attention, patience, and affection — because that’s what they deserve. I take the time to learn your dog’s routines, quirks, and comfort zones. Whether they’re energetic and playful or shy and sensitive, I adjust to their needs and make sure they feel safe, understood, and happy while you’re away. This isn’t just a service — it’s a relationship built on trust, reliability, and compassion. Because when you leave your dog with someone, you’re not just handing over a leash — you’re handing over peace of mind. And I take that seriously. Hi there! I’m available for pet sitting after 3:30 PM on weekdays and open on weekends. I work full-time during the day but make your pet’s care a top priority when I’m off. If you’re looking for reliable, compassionate care in the afternoons or weekends, I’d love to help! Caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s—is something I take to heart. Every pet is unique, so I tailor my care based on their routine, needs, and personality. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment with plenty of attention, play, and rest. In a client’s home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible, keeping pets comfortable and stress-free in their familiar space. My focus is always on making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for, just like family.

About: My own dogs coco and frosty I feed them take them out for walks let them run around the yard. They love the energy after they eat they have time to spend running around. I’m available all day during the week to take care of any pets required. Usually during the day is a better time for me and the pets. I have a back yard that is fenced so the pets can enjoy there free time, after they eat. They enough room for them to go potty.

Kayla is the best - Marisol is a very old dog but lights up like a young puppy. Every time they come over it is a very heartwarming and comforting to know the Marisol is in good hands when we’re gone for the long stent.

Where do I begin, Lizzy was amazing…I had hip replacement surgery and Lizzy walked my boy Jack for over 2 weeks. Lizzy was easy to work with and made it easy for me to recover from my surgery and not stress on caring for Jack. She would feed him after his morning walk and doled out treats following his afternoon & evening walks. I have already referred several people in my building to Lizzy. I didn’t want to tell her but she she definitely be charging more 🤣 If you need a trustworthy person to care for your Furr babies then Lizzy is your girl.

My dog can be picky with strangers, but she loves Yunwen. Yunwen is super sweet—she took my pup to a big grassy field to play, and brought water so she could drink on the way. I could tell my pup was super happy and relaxed after the walk. Yunwen is reliable, and genuinely cares about dogs. I’d 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a great walker!

I can’t say enough good things about Janalie! She was very attentive, reliable, and kind. I travelled for the 4th of July weekend and she came three times a day to walk my dog and feed her. She even gave me updates on my cat and lizard! She was always on time and gave me plenty of photos and detailed notes. She even offered to help if my plane got delayed/had any issues which was incredibly kind. She made me feel really reassured - thank you for that! If friends or family need someone responsible to watch over their pet, I would 100% recommend Janalie.
