“Catherine took care of my senior dog, Bella, while I was away on vacation. Bella is usually very timid, but she warmed up to Catherine quickly during our meet & greet. It was great to receive check-ins and photos throughout the week. Bella had a wonderful time and I’m glad to have someone I can trust next time I need help!”
11. Isabella C.
“Isabella did an awesome job walking and taking care of my Australian Shepherd, Roo. I was in a real pickle trying to get a dog Walker at the last minute but she really came thru. I highly recommend Isabella and her dog service. Thank you. Paul and Roo.”

13. Ruhinder S.
“Ruhinder has looked over my chihuahua Betta and my black labrador retriever Saiya for weeks on end and has done a wonderful job. The dogs returned home to their family of origin and were so sad to be away from their vacation experience because of Ruhinder. She bathed them, took them on excursions - to the park, to the pool, and to the ice cream parlor - and had really wonderful engagement activities for them to play too. We received photos of Ruhinder playing enriching games with the dogs like obstacle courses and dog-friendly popcorn! The dogs love being with Ruhinder and we love having her as our dog-sitter!”

15. Alyssa T.
“I really recommend her. She was very considerate when we had to book rover last minute. She took good care of Theo during walks and Theo was always excited to see her to got for logs.”
16. Jullian R.
“Jullian is amazing with animals - in my case it's my 15 pound dachshund Franklin! He’s incredibly patient and so kind. Even though we needed him to watch Franklin at the last minute, Jullian handled it like a pro. He went out of his way to make sure Franklin always had a cuddle buddy and stuck to our strict and confusing feeding schedule. Plus, Jullian kept us updated with great photos. Jullian made a very stressful situation so much easier! Franklin is always so excited to see him - showing me how well he took care of Franklin while I was gone. I can’t recommend him enough!”
17. Miranda T.
“Great Walker and very reliable and so thoughtful my babies were thirsty and she stopped by the house for a quick water break and return to the walk! I definitely would use her again Amazing thank you friend!”
18. Kirsten L H.
