5. Allison R.

“Allison was great with our older female German Shepherd! We hired her for daily walks during the week when our regular walker was on vacation. Allison was very kind and friendly with Bella while still taking command; she took care to walk her slowly and in the shade when it was hot as well as on long brisk walks when the weather was nice. She also is mature, dependable and very pleasant to work with. Always exceptionaly quick communication. Would definitely look to her first in the future.”

12. Aaron F.
“Aaron has been caring for my pups for a little over 3 years now! He is absolutely amazing with them and goes above and beyond to take care of their needs. My pitbull who has a bit of reactivity can be a bit of a handful at times but he has worked with him patiently and diligently everytime. He knows exactly how to handle my boy. I would 12/10 recommend Aaron for anyone who is looking for your pets to be treated like they are his family. Thank you Aaron as always for doing everything you can for my babies. We can’t appreciate you enough.”

14. Haven H.
About: I have 9 years of Animal experience, when it comes to both dogs and cats. I have worked at multiple dog daycares and pet supply stores! I’d love using my knowledge to help make a safe and positive environment for your animal! I’m currently a college student, but I’m on break, I’ll have a pretty flexible schedule up until August! I don’t mind working for a couple hours, but I don’t like sudden changes unless it’s an emergency! I’m pretty knowledgeable when it comes to pet care, and I’m also great at following directions! I’m not a negative reinforcement type of person, as I prefer positive reinforcement instead!


15. Phyllis A.
“I have used Phyllis over the years to come in and take care of my dogs when I was away from home. She would feed them and let them out to run around and play with them. She is really good with animals and conducts herself in a professional manner. She would be a great candidate for this type of work.”


16. Jenn B.


“Jenn was great with Callie we came home to a very tired pup which is exactly what we wanted.”


17. Brinn F.
“Brinn is a responsible pet lover who will treat your fur babies with the utmost kindness. She treats any pet she is caring for like her own. She has helped dog sit my 2 dogs and they absolutely adore her and get so excited any time they see her. She’s a true animal lover and I always know my dogs are in the best care with her.”


18. Kira M.
“Anyone can tell Kira is an animal lover the moment she is in the presence of any critter, big or small. She grew up with cats, dogs, fish and turtles, went to zoo camps, farm/horse camps, volunteered at an animal shelter, and has taken care of pets for friends and family often. Even at a young age she was always a very responsible and compassionate caregiver; (and not afraid of the cleanup!) She has loads of patience and a friendly approach, and even helped us take our reactive rescue dog to training and kept up the practice with her in between- even teaching her a few extra fun tricks! Kira is also a great communicator and will send photos and updates to keep us connected to our fur-babies.”
