“Ambar has truly been an immense help in keeping my pup active, readily available and flexible. She has been wonderful specially when my dogs routine went away when I had to return to work in office. I wouldn’t have felt so comfortable knowing my dog is well taken care of while I cannot take care of him.”


“Lindsey is absolutely INCREDIBLE! The love and care she shows for my pup is unmatched. She goes above and beyond to work with my schedule and is truly such a kind person. If you’re looking for someone to look after your pup in any way. No hesitation. It HAS to be Lindsey. You will not regret it!!!”

“As always, Joni is amazing. Coco adores her, and it gives me peace that Coco is receiving extra attention in her older years. Coco can't wait to see Joni next weekend a couple times a day!!!!”


“Debbie is the BEST! She’s so helpful and very informative with her descriptions about the walks. Tons of photos, full details about their walk and exact counts of poops and pees for each doggy. Our dogs (German Shepherd & Chihuahua) love Debbie. She plays fetch with our Shepherd, gives our Chihuahua tons of belly rubs, and even plays carpet hockey with our Shepherd when it’s too hot or rainy outside. She definitely goes far above and beyond on her care for our dogs. She’s indispensable and irreplaceable. Highly recommended by these dog parents and their pups!”


“Heather has been walking our dog for a few weeks now, and everything’s been great! We haven’t had many people at our house because of COVID, so our dog has become apprehensive of having new people over. Heather did a wonderful job getting our dog comfortable with her. Now our dog has something to look forward to when we’re not home! Thank you, Heather!”


About: I have had pets for as long as I can remember, with my favorite being dogs. I have always grown up with a dog in my family home and now I have my own. Bella is a 12-year-old chihuahua/Pug mix. She absolutely adores being around other dogs, especially ones who will chase her and play. Bella is my "old Lady", she is not too high energy, so she also enjoys lounging around being tucked away where she is most warm. So, you would never have to worry about your dog being in an unsafe or overly stimulated environment. In addition, I do have three children in the home who are auspicious dog lovers. My oldest daughters are 16 & 15 and I also have a fearless 6-year-old in the home who love snuggles, tug-a-war and belly rubs. although none of my children have a fear of animals, I am also very vigilant and never leave them unsupervised around any pup who is not ours to keep. Your fur-baby would be loved on every second of the day, well supervised and well-cared for while you are away. My job is to make sure you are worry-free while away from your fur-baby.

Casey C.
“Casey is a trustworthy person who I’ve trusted with my dogs on multiple occasions! Most recently, my husband and I went away for a few days, which is the most we’ve ever been away from our dogs before. I was sad to leave them but I knew they’d be in great hands with Casey. She is very knowledgeable of dogs since she has one of her own. I would recommend Casey to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter!!❤️”
