1. Anthony G.
“Anthony made sure that he knew every detail about our Lucy. He was confident in making sure she was comfortable with him while walking her and made sure she always had water. Would recommend him for any pet needs.”
2. Joshua S.
“Joshua is the most determined person I’ve ever met. He is intelligent but most of all he uses that intelligent well to be very clear. However, he does have his flaws. He has a confidence, although well-founded, it is hard to overlook. However, when you need him to be there he will be there.”
3. Bill B.
“We've used Bill as our dog walker for our two cattle dogs for almost two years. He's even done house sitting on occasion! They love him! He's trained them very well to be calm on walks which if you knew my dogs that takes lots of patience. He always was so kind to do small little extra things (bring garbage bins or packages outside) that was so helpful especially when I was on maternity leave. We highly recommend Bill! We will continue to use him in the future, as needed!”

5. Celine K.
About: I’ve been a genuine animal lover since childhood, and have deeply cared for my pets, as well as, friends and neighbors pets, for several years. I am currently in nursing school, working part time, so I will have days that are completely open for some much needed fun and snuggles! I promise to care for your pets as they are my own, and to treat your home with value and respect, while doing so. I follow all pet parents instructions and like to remain in communication with pet parents about how they are doing.
6. Shannon G.
“Shannon has watched my pets many times and always does a great job taking care of them. She treats them just like they're her own pets.”
7. Alayna I.
“Alayna took great care of our Wolfie! She paid close attention to his needs and made adjustments (like bringing him home from a walk a bit early so she could sit with him while he ate - since he was being a bit finicky about food). She kept in good communication with us the whole time and sent lots of pictures.”
8. Krystle M.
“Ive known Krystle for about 3 years now, and since then her love for animals have never failed to amaze me. I wish everyone in this world had the same love, care, compassion, and sympathy for animals that Krystle does. She has 2 animals of her own, and she treats them as if they are her own children. I would say even better then some may treat their own children. She makes sure they always have an abundance of toys to keep them entertained when she is not actively playing with them. Additionally, Krystle makes sure they have nothing but the best food available to them. Krystle spends time researching ingredients in the food she gives her pets by making sure there are no fillers, additives, preservatives, ect. buying organic despite the cost. This is one of the many things i admire about her. If you could look into Krystles eyes when around an animal, any animal, then you would see her true love for them. Krystle has an abundance of love to give, and i strongly believe that she would adopt and care for every anima in this world if she could.”

12. Natasha P.
“Natasha has experience with all sorts of dogs. She has fostered wolf hybrids with behavioral issues in the past, and she handled them very well. She is currently involved in the dog sports world. She is capable, patient, and experienced. I’d trust nobody with my dogs more than Natasha.”
13. Lexi M.
About: Hello! My name is Lexi, and I have a lot of experience dealing with dogs. For about 7 years now, family and friends have relied on me to take care of their dogs. I have worked at an animal hospital as a kennel technician as well as been a dog bather. I have learned so much from those jobs and gained a lot of knowledge on how to care for them. Working at those jobs has also helped me learn about dog behaviors and how to properly deal with them. If you choose me to be your dog walker/sitter, I can promise your baby will be in great hands! I currently have a full time job, so I will set up my calendar around that to show my availability! I will try my best to work around my schedule for my clients At my client’s homes I always make sure the dog(s) I am caring for are comfortable and happy. I am great at following directions carefully when it comes to instructions that pet parents leave for me, since that was my main responsibility at my previous job as a kennel technician. I also make time to cuddle, play with, and exercise your digs so they are as happy as can be!
