1. Elizabeth J.
“Elizabeth is the absolute best friend a pet or a pet parent could have. She has loved animals her entire life. When she is working with you your animal is her priority.”


2. Kathy H.

“Kathy has been so amazing with my dog. She absolutely loves when Kathy comes to take her on her mid day walk and it’s such a relief knowing she’s in good hands! Kathy provides great updates and adorable pictures. I highly recommend!”


3. Caitlyn B.
“My family and I highly recommend Caitlyn for any pet care needs! Caitlyn is responsible, on time, communicative, great with dogs of any age, and clearly loves dogs. Caitlyn went above and beyond for us with our new puppy and dog care needs. Our three dogs absolutely love her and she had such a positive impact on our new puppy. We hired Caitlyn to come to our home every day during the week while we were at work for a few months to help us with our new puppy who needed to be let out and played with while we were at work. She also fed the puppy lunch and took care of our other two dogs while she was there. I appreciate Caitlyn so much and her updates on how the new puppy was doing. Soon our puppy will be old enough to be on her own while we are at work. In the future I will definitely be booking Caitlyn again and have already recommended her to my family and friends.”

He is professional and knows so much about the different breeds, and, most importantly, dogs like him! He arrived on time and kept me updated on my dog’s progress. He easily accepted the changes I requested in our schedule. Please seriously consider hiring Jonathan!”

I highly recommend Kim if you are looking for someone to provide love and care to your pets.”


17. Brenna C.
About: Growing up, I've had a couple of dogs. Our first was a mix (part husky, terrier, etc.) named O'Doolie who lived to be 16! I was young when we had her, so I don't remember her puppy years. Our other dog we had since I was in elementary school up to my early 20s was Dixie Lee. She was a Miniature Schnauzer and was the sweetest dog ever! I enjoyed bathing her, brushing her teeth, and giving her so much love and attention. My husband and I work together as landscape designers! During the winter months, our schedule is very slow. This provides us more time to engage ourselves in other fun and creative endeavors! Currently, I have an unfenced backyard. I live with my husband in a small home. In the future, we’d love to put in a fence— we have just found we haven’t needed to just yet!


18. Camryn C.
“Camryn loves dogs and she did a great job caring for my puppy while I was busy. She got her out for a walk when I was busy.”


19. Abigail S.
“I met Abby when she found my dog running loose on the road after a break out from our yard! We weren't even at home but thought that our greyhound was safe within our fenced yard. Abby kindly walked her home called us and got her safely put in the house. Our dog, Allie, absolutely loves Abby, she recently stayed at Abby's house for several days while we were away and she was well taken care of and happy to be there. When you meet Abby you will find that she is great with animals, kind and responsible. I highly recommend her as a sitter and would never hesitate to leave my dog with her, I know she will take good care of Allie, and I feel so much better knowing that my dog is in a loving home rather than a kennel!”
