Cathy is a wonderful dogwalker! She was conscientious and caring regarding my older dog's needs. She communicates well and provided photos daily. Cathy made me feel at ease in trusting her with my dog and in my home.

Leeann did a great job walking my dog while I was away. She showed up in a timely fashion and always communicated with me on how he did on his walks. I felt like she loved him as if he was her own.

Amy turned out to beyond my expectations with walking Riley daily. I could tell when I got home he was in good hands with her. She even left a thank you card with an extra special treat for Riley to remember her by. I will be using Amy for future walks for sure. Thank you Amy!

Sydney is an excellent two-dog walker. My high-energy pups are already recognizing her and getting excited about their walks with her. I just stepped outside to retrieve them and they were sitting politely and picture-perfect.

About: Hi, I’m Katie. I’m a college student and I don’t have many years of experience, but I’m looking to gain some. I’m probably the biggest pet person you’ll ever meet and I hope I can help you and your dog or cat. I currently am a college student and I don’t have a summer job or anything so I’m just looking for something to do on the side and keep me busy and something that will fit my schedule while also enjoying time with animals I have a fenced in yard with a boxer half lab who is very friendly with medium to small size dogs and does well with cats. I’m looking to make sure the owner is happy but even more to make sure their pet is happy.

Kaitlynn does a great job with our 5 month old puppy. She takes lots of great photos on the walk of our puppy which we always love to look at. Kaitlynn is also fantastic with communication when setting up a visit. We would definitely recommend her to other dog owners.

About: Hi there! We’re passionate dog lovers who recently relocated from Tampa to Kentucky. We used to have a beautiful Doberdor (Doberman/Labrador mix) who brought so much joy into our lives. Before the move, we made the difficult decision to give him to a close friend so he could stay in a familiar home. We miss him every single day and truly miss having a dog around. That’s why we’d love the chance to care for your pup! Whether it’s dog sitting, walking, or just keeping them company, we’ll treat your dog with the same love, compassion, and care we gave our own. Being around dogs brings us so much happiness, and we’d be honored to be part of your pet’s life—even just for a little while! I work from home 9am - 6pm so I can take care of your pets pretty much throughout the day. I do have two littles under two so they keep me busy and outside! If dog-walking, I can walk your dog around our neighborhood our take them to the South Fork park and walk them along the trail and let them play in the creek! My kids love to go there so they can just tag along!

However, with my clients I have varied care depending on your service! With walking and home care services, I make sure to put all items back where I got them (leash, toys, etc) and make sure the pet has fresh water and food if applicable. In all home services, I make sure to leave the home better than when I got there!

About: I grew up with 4 large dogs (labs and golden retrievers) and 2 chihuahua mixes. Loved taking care of them as a kid. Now I have 2 cats and I have had them for 3 years. I also volunteered in a cat shelter for 1 year in Miami. I prefer last minute bookings and I will not accept booking requests more than 1 month in advance. I do online tutoring in the mornings and I’m 100% free in the afternoons and all day on the weekend. If you need me to house sit in the mornings, I can as long as I can connect to my tutoring sessions in between taking care of animals! For cats: I can feed, scoop the litter box, refill water, sweep, and of course play with them and give them scratches For dogs: take them on a walk, feed, refill water bowls, clean up, and of course play and give scratches

Kaitlynn’s help was truly incredible. My older, very particular female dog fell in love with Kaitlynn. She gave her undivided attention, followed her orders 🙃 and build a connection with her. Dependable, fast to communicate and treated Kam as if she were her own. Very grateful!
