“I was nervous getting a dog walker at first. As someone who had been in the petcare industry myself for 10+ years ,you see the good and the bad. But Connie is the most reassuring and animal loving person I have met in this area. Our puppy Brooklyn loves her. She makes sure our puppy gets lots of attention. I greatly appreciate everything she has done.”
“David did a great job with our dog and house. His prices were fair. His communications were timely. He was kind, respectful and professional. We're planning on using him again for the next dog walking job.”
“I am very pleased with Dominique! She is very friendly and polite and managed my two dogs very well. I definitely recommend her to anyone she will not disappoint.”
“Lauren was a pleasure to work with and having her help was greatly appreciated and our pups enjoyed her visiting ! She's very responsive and takes in feedback very well! I would recommend her to others.”
“Valerie is an excellent dog walker. Our dog took to her almost instantly and enjoyed his walks. He even waited for her each night the weekend she helped us. Always on time and keeps in contact. Thank you Valerie—we highly recommend her!”
“Erika had to be the best dog walker I’ve ever had. I would honestly, never want to use anyone else. I had a trip out of town that ended up having multiple flight delays and cancellations. I ended up having to extend the care last minute — she graciously worked with me on a moments notice. She was very polite and charismatic at meet and greet, took phenomenal care of Athena, was constantly quick to respond, kept me updated, sent photos, had full flexibility. She also helped work through any logistic issues efficiently and empathetically. My electronic lock to front door broke due to battery and she was at leasing office first thing, handling the situation for me. She made sure it was fixed and reassured me through my travels. She took my trash out. Left a thank you card. From start to finish she went above and beyond. It honestly felt like she treated my dog and home as her own, which is rare to find in sitters. Tremendous dog care provider. Would highly, highly recommend.”

About: With a pupper in our homes since before we can remember and experience caring for multiple other people's dogs, we've got what it takes to care for your dogs, no matter the size, and leave their tails wagging. We have experience caring for dogs after medical procedures and dogs with bladder issues, different energy needs, different anxiety levels, and partial blindness. Need a walk, food, refilling water, playing, ear scratches? We're there. And don't worry, we were sending lots of pictures before Rover cards, so rest assured that you'll get to see your precious pup (or pups) while you're away. With one us freelancing and the other in a flexible, remote job, our schedule is very flexible and we can be there to take care of your pet whenever you need! Morning, afternoon, evening - you name it and we'll be there. We have always had at least one pet at home with different preferences in how they like to be loved. Even so, our experience has shown us that no matter the pet, patience, kindness, affection, and quality time equate to a happy fur baby and that is what your pet will get from us. We believe that going beyond any beloved pet’s basic needs is the bare minimum. Even during short 30-min or 1-hr check-ins with your pet, we will cram in as much as we can to ensure they are happy and content including grooming, cleaning, playing, photography for parents, and more. Our genuine love for furry friends will ensure an excellent experience for your cat or dog.
