About: My love for my own pets inspired me to continue working with animals during college! With a major in psychology and a goal of working with therapy animals in the future, I love learning and growing as much as I can. I have professional experience in animal shelters, and a therapy animal program! I'm hoping to spend more time gaining experience working with animals. Not only is it enjoyable to hangout with furry friends, but it will be beneficial to my future career working in animal assisted therapy! I recognize that every animal is different with their own little personality. Hearing from owners about their recommendations, and getting to know the animal has never failed!
“Blaise is a top-notch dog person who is very passionate about the animals he works with. Highly recommended, I had a difficult time finding the right fit for Bosco but that search ended with Blaise!”
“I came in from our of town for a family gathering and needed a last minute walker for my dog. Jeffery was great with communicating with me for the last minute need. Was great handling Denise (my 2.5 year old had) and they had a nice hour long stroll around the neighborhood. Would recommend”
“Sarah was paws-itively wonderful with Crumbl! She was kind, communicative, and sent the cutest updates. I definitely recommend her and Crumbl looks forward to more adventures ahead”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with decades of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From my earliest memories, dogs have been part of my life—not just as pets, but as true family members. Over the years, I’ve been a dedicated “dog dad” through every stage of a dog’s life, from energetic puppies to senior companions requiring extra patience and care. I’ve also supported dogs through times of illness, so I understand how important it is to be attentive, gentle, and responsive to their needs. I pride myself on being kind, conscientious, reliable, and patient. When you trust me with your dog, you can expect professionalism, clear communication, and genuine care. I treat every dog as if they were my own—because I know they are a beloved part of your family. With my life experience comes a calm and steady approach, which helps me handle unexpected situations with confidence and good judgment. Whether it’s a daily walk, companionship, or extra attention while you’re away, your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! I do freelance work and am able to design my own work schedule. I like to stay busy and am amenable to dog-walking or pet-sitting at hours others may not be able to accommodate. I care for every pet as if they were my own family member. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully to maintain the dog’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and rest. I understand that consistency helps pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m reliable, patient, attentive, and respectful of both the pet and the client’s home. I also provide regular updates and photos so parents can feel confident that their pets are receiving loving, professional care. With years of experience caring for dogs of many breeds and ages, including senior dogs and dogs with special needs, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s personality and needs.

About: Dogs have always been an important part of my life. I grew up with samoyeds and see them as members of the family, best friends, and the most loyal, loving companions.

Rover combines two of my favorite activities, being active and hanging out with dogs. I am here to provide the high-quality care and attention your dog deserves, as well as peace of mind and convenience amid your busy schedule. I recognize and value the individuality of each dog. Their needs and happiness are my top priority. I will care for each animal as I would my own. 🐾 I’m a recent graduate in the medical field currently credentialing and interviewing. I have some new availability throughout this transition and look forward to being of service! I will follow your pet’s routine to ensure their comfort, happiness, and safety. I am very observant and detail-oriented, paying close attention to your dog, the surroundings, and anticipating needs.
About: I've had a connection with animals since I can remember. I've cared for cats and dogs and have cleaned litter boxes, and have walked many miles in those decades.

I am available almost always and your fur babies will have lots of love and company. I have a large grassy yard, and I live near a pond and multiple trails.

We had a wonderful experience! He took great care of our dog, taking him for a walk, giving him a treat, and making sure he had food and water. It’s the little things that show he genuinely cares. The photos he sent were amazing and really made our day. He was super responsive throughout, and we felt completely at ease. We’d definitely book with him again and highly recommend him!
Beanie loves Emily!! He gets so happy when she comes. She is so reliable and has great communication which I love! She really listens to beanie when he’s on his walks (ie where he wants to go or if he’s uncomfortable and wants to go home) and will usually give him some love and pets before leaving which I know he appreciates!!
