9. Thomas C.
About: I've had dogs for most of my life ever since I was born. I find that I like dogs more than people sometimes. I have been taking care of dogs as soon as I was old enough to walk them by myself. I have been around all sizes of dogs and love all of them. I like to get to know each dog individually to learn their needs and quirks to ensure they get everything they need from their time with me. I am currently working for my self and and able to make my own schedule. My day is free to schedule walks as needed for any dog. I have a fenced in back yard and when the pets are outside there is always someone outside with them. I also make sure to take the dogs out at least 3 to 5 times a day for a walk.

11. Ariel L.
“Ariel’s been an absolute legendary pet sitter and owner. She has ample experience with elderly dogs and has given them so much love and attention. Even as a sitter, she made sure my dog’s needs were met, especially with my dogs poor joints and introverted nature.”


12. Jestine S.

“Jestine was right on time for a quick walk I needed for my girl. Prompt, super sweet, sends pics, and efficient. Highly recommended and will use services again!”


13. Emma H.
“While I went on vacation to Ecuador for two weeks. Emma took care of my two dogs Doyle and Daigo. She made sure they had enough food and water throughout each day. Cleaned up after them even cleaned them up I couldn’t be more happier knowing how much she took care of my dogs”


14. Sasha M.


“Sasha has been amazing with my anxious pitty! She took the time to meet her and go slow on their first walk together. She sends lots of detailed updates and really makes sure that everyone feels at ease throughout the appointment. Would highly recommend!!”




15. Marlita M.

“Marli has been taking our dog on weekly walks for several months and she has house-sat for us on multiple occasions as well. She has been absolutely wonderful to work with since Day 1. She is quick to respond, always prompt, and most importantly, our dog really enjoys spending time with her. We have a large dog that has medical needs and she can sometimes be difficult when getting to know new people. Marli demonstrated tremendous patience and kindness with her and she was able to gain her trust as a result. We are incredibly grateful for that. We would HIGHLY recommend Marli to anyone looking for a kind, passionate, and highly communicative caretaker for their pet. Thanks Marli :)”


16. Valery M.

“Valery did a fantastic job taking care of our dog. She was thoughtful and made sure she knew what was needed during each check-in with Sage and he was always happy to see her.”


17. Alyssa P.
“She is an amazing care taker for your pups! I love the way she is with my milo! He never goes with anyone but for some reason he is very attached and I can just drop him right off at her door steps and he will go! I’ve had her watch him for a week as I was on vacation and they grew a huge bond! She sends photos and always answers the phone when I wondered how my little guy was doing!”


18. Alyssa F.

“Alyssa is such a wonderful person. She was great with my Labrador during my trip away for 10 days. Always polite, informative and on time with his walks. Thank you so much.”


19. amanda c.
“Amanda is the best. My golden retriever Duke is full of energy and not fond of many people. But whenever he sees Amanda he gets so excited and runs to her. She really knows how to make him feel loved and me feel safe about him being in good hands.”


20. Sonya S.

“Sonya was amazing. Kept me updated throughout the day about mijo. Pictures and videos. Don’t think I could have asked for a better person to take care of my dog. Sonya thanks again.”
