About: My life has always been measured in the animals who’ve walked beside me. My very first furry friend was a dog my mother rescued the day I was born; a stray who chose us as much as we chose her. She watched over me as I grew, and when she passed, our home filled again with life: a white German shepherd, a Siberian husky, a Chesapeake Bay retriever, and two rescue dogs who completed our pack of five. Alongside them were rabbits, birds, and fish, each one a small heartbeat that shaped my understanding of care, patience, and love. I grew up feeding, walking, grooming, training, and comforting animals of every age and temperament. I’ve raised puppies from their first steps, and I’ve supported senior dogs through their gentle final years. I’ve administered medication, helped dogs with mobility needs, used ramps, changed diapers, and adapted to whatever made them feel safe and dignified. To me, these things aren’t chores, they’re acts of love. During my undergraduate studies, I also trained to become a veterinarian, deepening my understanding of animal health, behavior, and compassionate handling. As part of that training, I traveled to Thailand for two weeks to volunteer at a dog and cat shelter, where I supported stray animals and assisted licensed veterinarians with spay and neuter procedures. Despite switching my studies to social work, my experience strengthened my belief that animals are more than companions, they are beings who trust us with their safety, their comfort, and their hearts. Caring for them is both a responsibility and a privilege, and it’s one I carry with deep respect. Most recently, I rescued a senior “big brown dog” whose owner passed away. He now lives with my mother, but he’s still part of my heart. Even though I don’t currently have animals in my home, caring for them has never stopped being part of my life. I regularly board, walk, and look after family members’ dogs and cats, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I don’t see animals as “pets.” I see them as family; quiet companions who trust us with their whole hearts. They deserve to be cherished, comforted, and understood. They give us their loyalty without hesitation, and I believe the least we can do is return that devotion with gentleness, patience, and joy. If you choose me to care for your family member's needs, I will honor the love you have for them. I will treat them with the same tenderness I’ve given every animal who has shaped my life. Your dog won’t just be watched; they’ll be welcomed, respected, and cared for as the family member they are. I work remotely full-time, and my partner works from home, so your pet will always have company, attention, and a consistent routine. I adapt my schedule to fit your pet’s needs, whether that means frequent walks, medication timing, extra potty breaks, or a slower pace for seniors. You’ll never have to wonder how your furry family member is doing; I’m happy to send photos, videos, and updates throughout the day so you always feel connected. I’m easily reachable by text and respond quickly, making sure you feel supported and informed while your pet is in my care. My goal is to create a seamless, comforting experience for both you and your beloved companion. Your pet’s safety and comfort guide everything I do. I live in a pet‑friendly apartment building where other dogs are present, but I’m always able to keep your animal completely separate if they prefer people over other pets. My home is a one-level space with hardwood floors, and I’m attentive to accessibility needs. If your four‑legged family member can’t manage stairs, no worries as the building I live has an elevator for easy accessibility. I live right next to a dog park for pups who love to socialize, and I’m surrounded by green spaces for peaceful walks, fresh air, and enrichment tailored to your pet’s personality. Above all, I create an environment where your animal is treated with gentleness, respect, and the same love I give my own.

“Maia’s soooooo great and helpful! She showed up on time and is great with our puppy! He could be shy but warmed up to Maia very quickly - he couldn’t wait to see her again. Maia also took pictures and was responsive and detailed about the puppy - already planning to book again in the future. Definitely recommend!”

“Priscilla is very conscientious and does a good job of taking care of Archie. Nice long walks and prompt feedback.”

“Jennifer was very easy to work with. She communicated, trustworthy (i never met her), sent pictures and walked Biscuit. I will definitely be using Jennifer again!”

Michal F.

“I was definitely skeptical and a little nervous about hiring a dog walker to watch my pup when we went on vacation. My guy is a little more high maintenance than other dogs. He’s not the biggest fan of strangers and other dogs so I knew I needed to make sure I hired the right person for the job. Hiring Scarlet turned out to be the absolute BEST decision we could have ever made. Her communication was fantastic, always letting us know how he was and what her timing was going to be. Things went so well I’m going to be scheduling weekly walks just so they can hang out/see each other on a regular basis. 5 STARS!!!”

“Everything went very well with Kayla's dog walking service! She was communicative and prompt.”

About: I have worked taking care of pets in a multitude of environments. Been a pet sitter for over 10 years and worked with an array of different dog and cat breeds. Have taken care of sick and disabled animals as well. Have always enjoyed this as a side career. I have worked with both small and large dogs and have adjusted my technique accordingly. I also have experience in taking care of cats as well as providing medical treatment to sick animals. I have experience working for a professional pet sitting company and as well as the inner workings of a veterinary hospital. I am willing to invest time and energy to make the pet happy, which is important for both the owner and the pet. I have worked with a number of rescues over the years and have had pet care experience for over 10 years with a variety of dogs and cats. So I have no trouble giving the time needed. I believe that it’s important to make every pet comfortable and happy. I have pets of my own over the years who have gotten from many rescues and believe sitter and pet bond is important.

About: I grew up with multiple dogs, so caring for them has always been part of my life. I’ve regularly pet-sat for family members, and friends have trusted me to care for their dogs while they’re on vacation. I know how much pets mean to their families and I’ll give your dog the care, attention, and love I’d want for my own I’m currently taking online, mostly asynchronous grad classes, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care Monday-Friday. My only scheduled class is Tuesdays from 4-5pm. I’m also available on weekends with advance notice, so I can plan ahead and give your pet plenty of time and attention! I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable with me. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions for feedings, walks, potty breaks, and any special care, while making sure their pets get plenty of playtime and attention. I respect their home and send updates and photos so they can feel at ease while they’re away.

“Very happy that I was Angelique's first client to walk my furbaby. She was very thorough and sweet. She made sure to keep me updated and I will definitely book with her again.”

“Megan is amazing with our dachshund mix, Mr. Harold. He has some separation anxiety and her weekly walks with him have been so amazing on the days we’re in-office. I can’t recommend Megan enough!!”

About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, I've learned that great pet care goes beyond feeding and walking. Every pet has their own personality, routines, and little quirks, and I take the time to understand what makes each one feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have a special appreciation for senior dogs and understand that they sometimes need a little extra patience and attention. Whether it's shorter, gentler walks, keeping an eye on their mobility, following medication schedules, or simply providing a comfortable place to rest, I make sure their individual needs are never overlooked. I'm also comfortable administering oral medications when needed. I know how stressful it can be to leave your beloved pet with someone new. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they're being cared for like family. You can expect plenty of affection, companionship, playtime, and attention to their usual routines. I also love keeping pet parents involved, so expect regular photos, updates, and little glimpses of your pet's day. I want you to feel just as comfortable leaving them with me as they do staying with me! I do my best to keep my schedule flexible around the pets in my care. I believe pets feel most comfortable when they can maintain their familiar routines, so I prioritize their regular feeding times, walks, playtime, medication schedules, and rest. I make sure they receive plenty of attention and companionship throughout their stay, while also respecting their need for quiet time and space. My goal is to make their time away from home feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and at home, even when their family is away. Before each stay, I take the time to learn about your pet's personality, daily routine, preferences, and any special care instructions. I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort, especially when caring for senior pets who may need additional supervision or a gentler approach. I never believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to pet care. Whether your dog is playful and energetic, shy and reserved, or simply enjoys lounging around, I'll respect their individual needs and let them settle in at their own pace. Your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet's comfort. I'll keep you updated with regular photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is in caring hands.

“Jolie really came through for me and my brand new rescue, Irving. He’s still getting used to city life and everything that comes with it, so he is highly reactive and anxious. She was available the same day to do a meet and greet and was completely calm and unbothered by his jumping and barking even in her face. She put us both at ease and was really patient with him. She took Irving on productive walks in the middle of the day and he took to her pretty quickly. She is also very communicative and kept me apprised of location and how the walks were going. I’d definitely use her services again!”

“Drew has been walking my Labrador several times now and is an exceptional dog walker. He communicates well and arrives within my allowable walk window. I will continue working with him.”

About: I’ve always been the type of person who gets excited whenever I see a dog or cat! Over the past 2 years, I’ve learned that every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know each one. Some are super playful and affectionate, while others need a little more time to warm up. I never like to rush them and always let them come to me when they’re ready. I’m naturally patient, caring, and love making animals feel comfortable around me. Whether we’re running around playing or just relaxing together, I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and treating them like they’re my own. I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of free time to spend with your furry babies! My schedule is pretty flexible throughout the week, aside from Monday and Thursday mornings. Whether it’s going on walks, playing, or just keeping them company, I have lots of time to give them the love and attention they deserve! I know being in a new environment can be overwhelming for pets, so I always give them time and space to get comfortable. I let them explore at their own pace while making sure they’re safe and supervised. I also try to stick to their usual routines so they feel as relaxed and at home as possible.

“Shariana is amazing! She asks all the right questions to put our mind at easy while providing so many details of our pup's care. Definitely someone special to have around!”
