Jenny has walked my fur baby a few times now, and I will continue use her in the future. She's super communicative, punctual, understanding of my fur babies needs, and professional. Had to do a last minute booking this last time, and she was able to accommodate my schedule. 10/10 would recommend her to anyone!

Bob was a great walker! He always arrived on time & posted great photos with our puppy! Both my boyfriend and I work in the medical field so our schedules constantly change & he was always very great with getting back to us right away on if he could walk our little guy! He also worked on leash training with him as well!

About: I grew up with a dog and 5 cats!! I can give meds, clean up, and get them active!! Or just give them extra love. I’m a registered nurse and have many week days off. However, my schedule changes week to week. I take care of people for a living… so I enjoy taking care of animals even more:) I will respect your preferences with your animal and know how it important it is for their routine!

Kai really helped me out when I was in a bind. She’s so great with Archie who is a handful as he’s still a puppy. She communicates well and I always know how Archie’s doing as she sends regular updates and photos.

About: I’ve had dogs in my family ever since I was a little kid. I love them so much! Growing up I’ve always helped friends and family watch their animals for them. As an adult, I work in animal care as my career. I help provide medical care, run play groups, take fun walks, and spend quality time with these wonderful animals. My heart is dedicated to caring for these beautiful animals. To me, pets are family, and nothing is more important than family. I will provide the best care for them so you do not have to worry about your pets whether you’re at work or on vacation. I work for a local nonprofit in animal care, four days a week. My available days are Sundays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. I am available at any time and for as many visits or walks that are needed on those days. I’m here to help you! 😊 To me, you’re home is you and your pets safe place. I treat each pet and home with the utmost respect and care. I make sure to make a very soft vocalizing entrance so to not stress your dog(s) out when I enter. Whether you want me to take them out for a nice fun walk or simply just check in on them and let them out into a backyard, your dog(s) will never be left alone, not even for one second. Every minute from start to finish is quality time with them. I am also very comfortable providing medications. I also i’m not afraid to get my hands dirty and help clean up an accident that may have happened from a dog that is not housebroken yet. You just let me know what you need and I will go above and beyond providing it.

Erin is incredibly sweet and caring and has been a massive help with walking my dog Loki while I’m recovering from an injury. She goes above and beyond what I expected from a dog walker and Loki is always in a good mood after his walks. Very much appreciate everything Erin has done and highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to care for your pet.

Mackenzie was an absolute lifesaver while I was out of town! She took excellent care of my dog Kona for several days, handling walks, playtime, and everything in between with such warmth and reliability. Kona came back happy, tired (in the best way), and clearly well-loved—complete with daily photo updates and detailed reports that put my mind at ease. She's communicative, punctual, and genuinely passionate about dogs. If you're looking for someone trustworthy and caring, Mackenzie is the one! 5 stars all the way—highly recommend booking her again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

About: Hi! I’m Wade, and I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs in my family and spent my childhood dog-sitting for friends, so I’m comfortable with pups of all sizes and personalities. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every dog like part of my family. Whether it’s walks or playtime, I’m excited to give your dog the care and attention they deserve while you’re away. I work from home and have a very friendly dog of my own. I can offer daycare or boarding at your convenience. I can provide walks and outside playtime every 4 hours at the longest, usually much more frequently than that. I have a fenced yard and my dog is very friendly and crate trained. I am detail oriented and can make sure your pets are cared for as you would care for them. I make sure to watch dogs as they play to ensure that they play safely.

About: I’m patient, reliable, and detail-oriented, and I always treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs gentle care, extra playtime, slow introductions, medication reminders, or just someone calm to keep them company, I’m confident and comfortable handling it. I love building trust with both pets and their people, and I always make sure you’re updated so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. I’m also a pet parent to two cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities and routines. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday routine. I already care for my two cats at home, so feeding schedules, playtime, and keeping a clean, calm environment are part of my daily life. I plan my day around giving pets attention, consistent check-ins, and plenty of time to feel comfortable. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, I always make sure each pet gets reliable, focused care. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I keep a clean, pet-friendly environment and always follow the routine your pet is used to: feeding instructions, meds, potty schedules, and any house rules. In a client’s home, I treat the space with respect and maintain a calm, consistent environment so your pet feels safe and cared for.

Brandy is amazing! I didn’t update my address on Rover and it sent her to my old spot and she still drove to my current address and walked him for me. I would 10/10 recommend her and will continue to use her services when needed. Thank you, Brandy, for taking such good care of my baby. 🥰
