“We have had many wonderful walkers for Oscar, however, Kylie is the absolute best dog walker we have ever had. She is extremely dependable and provides excellent care for our boy. She is hardworking and the hills around our neighborhood or atmospheric river storms do not slow her down. Our sweet boy adores her and so do we.”
“Jessica is a great walker and always lets me know what’s going on. Very grateful for her!”
“Minerva is the most caring and loving dog walker! She takes her time walking Kobe and sends plenty of pictures and updates about his activities (pee, poo, etc.). She's very detailed, quick to respond, communicative, and incredibly friendly. You can tell she's an animal lover. Kobe has fallen in love with her in such a short time! Can't thank Minerva enough for everything she does for our Kobe!”
About: Rover code: https://www.rover.com/sit/gilliw30392 I’ve been around dogs most of all my life. I’ve pet sit pugs occasionally throughout highschool, and have experience giving some medications. Our household furbaby Mila has a history of tremors thought to be seizures, so I have experience with the protocol when seizures and tremors do occur. I currently only have a single online class so my schedule is more than open to take care of your pups in the ways that you need. I have an asynchronous class so if I am house sitting, I can multitask snuggling your pups as work on my studies. If your dog is more active, that’s no issue! While your pup is in my care, I am more than happy to focus solely on your pup according to wants and needs you mention. If your dog needs to be active, I’d love to incorporate thier needs to be physical and get a workout along with them!:)
“Celeste did such an amazing job and is very reliable. She approved booking despite the short notice, and even brought my packages in the house for me. I highly recommend!!”
About: I have experience with a wide range of dog breeds. I am patient and compassionate, attuning to your dogs’ physical and emotional needs. I miss having a dog and would love to make some 4-legged friends. My schedule is very flexible! I work part-time and would love to take your dog for a walk or pet sit. I have reliable transportation and can come to you. I am good at communicating and am very responsive to texts/calls. I will reinforce your dog’s training while keeping them safe and well cared for.

Stephanie was incredibly kind and patient with my anxious dog during her first two walks. I’ll definitely book with her again and highly recommend her!
Highly recommend this couple! They were great! They took such good care of my high energy dogs. They sent me constant pictures, updates and videos which gave me so much peace of mind. My dogs are my everything and it’s been such a struggle to leave them behind that I don’t go anywhere unless I have to for work. But knowing how good they were to my dogs gave me so much relief. Thank you guys so much! Will definitely be using them again.
Celeste did such an amazing job and is very reliable. She approved booking despite the short notice, and even brought my packages in the house for me. I highly recommend!!
We’ve been having Sachika walk and visit with our girls for a few weeks now. She’s so great with them, always on time, communicative and just overall great energy. We’re SO happy to have found her truly 🥰
Sarah is the best! She’s so adaptable to our needs and our dogs LOVE her and get so excited to see her! We’ve used her for over 2 years and trust her as a member of the family. She’s wonderful!
Mariah is awesome. She is becoming my dogs best friend. She’s reliable and communicates and is wonderful with my boys.
Our dog loved Myha! Myha was super flexible and communicative the whole time she was watching our dog. She was awesome, we will definitely be using her again.
Fatemeh is a saint. Our Bono absolutely loved her. She went above and beyond by taking her time with our dog to do some lead training as part of his walks. He pulls much less and we have her to thank for that. She was very communicative, posted beautifully posed pictures of each walk, and coordinated easily with my mom who was watching Bono while we were away. If you’re lucky enough to have Fatemeh care for your pet, you can trust that your furry friend will be in great hands.
Pulled through for me last minute. Was prompt and followed all my requests to a T, so appreciated! My dog ran out to her like he’s known her forever, was so happy to have a walk, did his biz and was home happy. Couldn’t ask for more! Thank you!
