“Jen was great with communication and very prompt to arrive and take Reno for his walk. We appreciated the detailed info on his walk and the cute photos of him too! Will definitely book with Jen again!”


“Bryce was fantastic with our dogs—he handled three 30-minute walks, sometimes going a bit over without any issue or extra charge. He’s professional, easy to communicate with, and follows instructions closely. We felt completely comfortable leaving him with access to our home, and we’d gladly work with him again. Highly recommended!”


“Autumn did a great job taking care of my boy. She provided a walk once a day for at least an 1/2 hour. Provided pictures each day. Will be booking with Autumn again.”

“Amberleigh was AMAZING!!! She did a wonderful job with my senior girl & kitten! She took great care of them both. Will absolutely book with her in the future!”


“Bree has been great with Mochi! She is on time, communicative, and patient- learning to use Mochi's e-collar and dominant dog collar. She is also understanding of my anxiety around Mo's selective aggression in our extremely dog-friendly apartment complex. She is super vigilant about other dogs, and attentive to environmental risks on walks. Her attentiveness puts me at ease, and I would recommend her without reservation.”

About: Life is simply better with a dog by your side—especially a big one! As a lifelong dog advocate, I believe every pup deserves to feel as safe, happy, and loved with me as they do with you. I know how important consistency is for your dog’s well-being. Whether it is meal times, walks, or naps, I will stick to their usual schedule to make your absence as smooth as possible. Fetch, tug-of-war, belly rubs, or just couch cuddles—your dog’s idea of fun is my idea of a great day! However they love to play, I am all in. Having loved and lost my own soul-dog, I understand the trust you place in a sitter. My goal is to be that reliable, caring presence so you can relax knowing your pup is in devoted hands. If you are looking for a sitter who treats your dog like family—with patience, enthusiasm, and deep respect for their needs—let’s chat! Flexible in such that I can arrange other duties around the needs of clientele. I will try my absolute best to mend any scheduling conflicts for last minute needs as well. My default is in-home pet sitting because I believe a familiar environment reduces stress and keeps routines intact—which means a happier pup! That said, I always prioritize the individual needs of each pet and family. After meeting you and your dog, we will decide together what works best, whether that is staying in their home or another arrangement. My goal is simple: your pet’s comfort and safety, no matter where that takes us!

About: I have potty trained many puppies to use the outside over the inside. I enjoy walking my dog around the neighborhood and would enjoy doing the same for you. I know how important it is to have interaction with our furry family members while you are at work. I can help with making sure they have food, water, and active time while you are working. I work nights and have time to help others during the day. My day is pretty empty with some extra time to help others with some time. I always keep my dog on leash and watch them toake sure they are not getting into anything that can hurt them. I make sure that he has all his shots up to date while making sure he has preventive care as well.
