“Leo has been amazing with Sonny! Always communicative, flexible, and takes the extra time to make sure Sonny is settled before he leaves! Bonus that he takes the cutest pictures on their walks!”
2. Sara M.
“Sara is amazing to work with! When my dad’s standard poodle was moving in to live with him at an assisted living facility, we needed someone we could trust with a sometimes stubborn pup! It didn’t take Viola long to warm up to Sara! Sara’s updates are great and informative. We look forward to having Sara care for our pups when we leave town for vacation. Thanks so much, Sara!”

4. Zoe M.
“Zoe has had pets for as long as I have known her. She's taken excellent care of her cat which has required work than your average cat given the medical history of said cat. She also has had two German shepards for a couple of years and they've been happy and healthy every time I've seen them (a few times a month regularly).”

8. Terry S.
“Terry is a great sitter, clearly loves what she does and treats your pet as her own. She’s kind and conscientious and was more than happy to help us out in a tight spot. I’d certainly recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter/walker. She’s great.”
9. Jikang & Leong L.
“They were awesome with my Doberman Olive! He needs a lot of walks and isn’t fully potty trained. They walked him three times a day and sent me tons of videos, which was super sweet. They also helped with her leash-dragging issue. Definitely great sitters!”

11. Amanda G.
About: I have experience working with dogs and growing up with dogs. I worked at a dog groomers. So I know how to bathe, give medicine and understand temperament. I am well qualified to work with puppies as well as senior dogs. I have also worked on a farm. This home loves doggy snuggles. I have a couple days off from work I am able to help as I only work part time. I am also currently on certain days able to help before work or after. My home currently only has a cat. So if you need a home free of other dogs I can provide that. I have a yard I am able to walk dogs in and a nice neighborhood with little traffic to take pups on a walk. I have a good amount of space in my home for all sizes pups.

14. Maggie C.
“Maggie is a family friend of ours and has pet sit for us plenty of times. She is never late and always has the most positive attitude. She loves animals and it shows when she interacts with them. I have never come home to a dirty house, sometimes it’s cleaner than I left it, and the animals are always well loved.”
15. Ilona Arabelle V.
“Arabelle was simply wonderful. So helpful during our recent trip to CT. She was so accommodating - even met me at my hotel as I was running late for an event! I received many updates, pictures and Arabelle even offered to come back to play with Luna if I could use her help. Can't recommend this sweet lady enough to take care of your pet!”
16. Nina B.
About: I have always loved all animals! I grew up in a house with multiple dogs (specifically goldendoodles, labs, and GSPs) and can’t imagine my day to day life without animal interaction! I have experience with all ages, puppies through senior dogs. Additionally, I have experience with cats (also grew up owning multiple cats)! I am extremely flexible with timing! I can be available early AM and late PM! Also available mid day for a lunch time visit/walk! Weekends are open as well :) I overall understand pets’ needs. With this being said, I am willing to take dogs on long walks (1hr +) or crate if owner preferred!
17. Tiffany Y.
“Tiffany has been a God sent. She takes care of my baby with so much love and care. My baby doesn’t even want to leave her to go back home. I highly recommend Tiffany as a dog walker and especially a dog sitter.”
18. Doreen S.
“My dogs love Doreen. She is wonderful with them. She is so patient, Macy can be a little challenging when meeting new people, and takes her a long time to warm up, but it only took a few minutes. That right there speaks volumes. I highly recommend Doreen and will use her again soon.”
19. Camden H.
“Camden is incredible! We repeat his services weekly because he treats our puppy like his own! He has been awesome at communication and there is nobody else I would trust with our dog Scout!”
