“Jessica is very sweet and took the time to let our dog warm up to her. She took great care of our pup and kept us updated on the walk from when she got there until the end. We would definitely use her again for the future!”
“Tonie was incredible! She responded super quickly to my last minute dog walking request and treated my puppy with much care. She was also super communicative and I’ll be asking her to look after him again :)”
“Upon first meeting her, Cheyenne was friendly and made her availability flexible and easy to work with. My dogs instantly took a liking to her and you can tell she is an animal lover, she will remember your dogs traits and preferences and tailor to their individual needs. She follows care instructions well and is very communicative. Sending you plenty of cute pet pics and a detailed care card. My dogs had a great walk! I could tell they had a lot of enrichment and fun at their pace. She was puntual and professional and I would recommend her for any service. Another bonus is that she's insured and knows pet CPR so rest assured your pet is always in caring knowledgeable hands!”
“Lucas is an amazing person to be with your furry friend. Lucas is so sweet to my Bellie-Ann. He is very prompt, walks her, feeds her, has done in home visits. I can’t recommend Lucas enough! He is great!”
About: I began caring for my cat, Tori, who has allergies and respiratory issues, and through that experience I learned how to give medication, monitor breathing, and provide gentle emotional support. Taking care of her taught me how deeply pets trust us and how important consistent, loving care is. I want to bring that same compassion to every pet I look after. I currently don’t work part time or attend school, so I have plenty of time every day, including weekends, to care for your pets with full attention and love. 1️⃣ Clean, safe, and caring pet care 2️⃣ Safe, gentle, and loving care 3️⃣ Hygienic and caring pet service 4️⃣ Clean hands, safe pets, happy hearts 5️⃣ Gentle care with safety first
About: I absolutely adore animals. I have four children who are also huge animal lovers so if you board with us in home your pet will be absolutely doted on. Pet parents will be hard pressed to find a family that will take better care of your pet or give them as much love and attention. I love being outside and going on long walks and would love to accompany your dog on their daily walk. We have a tremendous amount of time to play with your pet, take them on walks, and give them the attention they not only require but also deserve. We have a decent sized fenced in yard which is perfect for lots of play time! We are very attentive to animals and have experience giving medication including shots.
“Erin came through for us in a pinch! We felt very relieved knowing she was there to get our Niko through the day without us home. She even came into an unfortunate garbage bin excavation that had been tracked across the floor with a guilty Niko suspiciously at the scene of the crime (lesson learned) and Erin went out of her way to clean up the mess. She was very proactive in communications and provided all the details of his care. Will definitely be booking again and highly recommend!”
“Paige took great care and did very well with Eli on his walks, she even made sure he was content with a nice treat at the end. I would highly recommend Paige and will definitely be utilizing her services again.”
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs and have loved them for as long as I can remember, so caring for animals is second nature to me. In fact, I’m the proud owner of a sweet 4-year-old Golden Retriever, so I fully understand the daily dedication, love, and attention that dogs need to thrive! For over a decade, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to check in, feed, walk, and play with their pets. I treat every animal with the same high level of care and patience that I give my own pup, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is a seamless part of my daily routine since I already manage a structured schedule for my own dog. I have excellent availability throughout the week for drop-ins, walks, and playtime, ensuring your pet gets consistent attention and care right when they need it. Having grown up around dogs and raising my own pup, I know exactly how to maintain a safe, low-stress environment. I treat every home with the utmost respect and ensure all environments are secure before playtime. You can always count on receiving frequent communication, photo updates, and careful attention to your pet's specific safety needs. I also have a fenced in backyard at my own home and a 4 year old friendly golden retriever.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for 10 years, whether mine or those belonging to family. I have trained puppies as well as taken care of my dogs that have reached their golden years, and helped them over the rainbow bridge. My top two priorities are communication and safety. Any need you have regarding your pet is of utmost importance because pets aren’t just animals - they’re family! I have two dogs at home, one is 1 1/2 years old and the other is nearly 4. We walk 3 times daily, as well as plenty of enrichment time inside. Enrichment depends on the day, it can be playing with toys, eating treats from snuffle mats, lick mats, or just running around with them until they’re as tired as I am! Safety is my biggest priority. I follow instructions very carefully, I keep a close eye on your fur babies both in the house and outside. I can send real time updates that way you know exactly what is going on at all times, and I will always make sure to ask questions when needed. I can recreate your pets routine as closely as possible, and I will always bring positive energy!
“I truly appreciate the excellent service I received. She was very attentive and made me feel like she genuinely cared about my dog. I especially appreciate her accepting my request last minute and still providing such great service. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to my friends.”
About: I have a lifetime experience with multiple kinds of pets. I grew up with multiple dogs in the household, a few had behavioral issues but I loved them and I worked with them all the same. I now have an amazing rescue boy, Moose, a high energy black mouth cur. He is amazing. I’ve also had experience administering medications to dogs and caring for my parents elderly black lab. I also currently have four domestic rats: Theo, mouse, Baxter and Nibbles (1-3 years old). So I have experience in the small animal department as well. I have also cared for my sisters cats Beethoven and Chai whenever she is out of town. Feeding, cleaning and administering eye drops and medications. I am open to caring for any animal. I look forward to meeting your furry friend/s. I am currently in between jobs and am looking to supplement my income. I have a daughter who is in school from 730-330 so I am free to care for your pets in between those hours. If needed outside of those hours we would have to talk further and I may be able to accommodate. I just moved into a new apartment so I don’t have the set up to care for your pets at my home (exception, I have a room I could house your small animal/s for a short time). I am working on getting set up for home care. I currently am available to come to you to care for your fur babies. My sister has been very happy with my care of her cats and if you want you can reach out to her for a recommendation, just let me know.
“Svetlana always does a very good job with Holly. She is very conscientious and takes good care of my dog. I’m very pleased with her as a walker. I’ve used her many times and will continue to use her in the future.”
About: I have experience caring for large dogs and have had three rescue Labrador retrievers as an adult. I have also had experience as a dog foster working with local shelters. As a recent retiree, I am spending my time between volunteering with my daughter's school and the local humane society, leaving plenty of time to spend with your fur babies. I have a fenced yard and a friendly 7 year-old black Labrador. We have two crates if any of the pups need to be crated. If in your home, I will follow instructions provided to insure that your pup receives the proper care.
About: Dogs show us the true meaning of actions speak louder than words. They love so hard without even telling us, but showing us every day. Before 4 I have open availability M-F so I can go spend all the time I can with everyone. We can go on walks, go find new adventures. With time management and care. They are like children, then need a set schedule. I would love to make schedules for everyone so that they are calm and collected.
About: Hello! My name is Marissa. I have had a dog in my family all my life. In fact, when I was a transfer I took up dog obedience and agility training with my family dog. I have taken care of all types of dogs including seniors as well as puppies. I also volunteer at the animal shelter and there I deal with all types of dogs from various backgrounds so I have experience with behaviorally challenged dogs as well. I have also taken care of cats and some have grown very attached to me. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out! During the summer I have very open availability and I am free most weekends and during the week all day. Since I work as a teacher, during the school year I am only available before and after work as well as on the weekends. I am very respectable of others property while still giving the animals personalized attention. I make sure to spend as much time as possible with them. I work with them and have learned to be very patient with other cautious animals.
“Lisa is AMAZING! Bane and her clicked right off the bat. He enjoys his walks and the love she gives him while I am away at work. She is number one in my book and I couldn’t ask for a better person to watch my baby boy. I highly recommend her for any service you may need.”

I truly appreciate the excellent service I received. She was very attentive and made me feel like she genuinely cared about my dog. I especially appreciate her accepting my request last minute and still providing such great service. I will definitely be using her again and highly recommend her to my friends.
Cheyenne is an absolute pro! She replied promptly to my dog walking request and was able to quickly set up a meet & greet. She was very patient with my dog, who had never had a “stranger” as a dog walker/sitter and was able to successfully walk him on their first one-on-one despite his anxiety. She kept me up to date on her arrival times and almost immediately sent my dog’s report card out after his walks. After only a couple of days, my dog really warmed up to her, wanting her to stay and play. I’m glad I was able to find someone who’s obviously great with animals but is also trustworthy and professional!
Erin came through for us in a pinch! We felt very relieved knowing she was there to get our Niko through the day without us home. She even came into an unfortunate garbage bin excavation that had been tracked across the floor with a guilty Niko suspiciously at the scene of the crime (lesson learned) and Erin went out of her way to clean up the mess. She was very proactive in communications and provided all the details of his care. Will definitely be booking again and highly recommend!
