“Greg has met with Sasha for a meet and greet, then the next day for a 60 minute walk. My Sasha came home exhausted and happy! Looking forward to doing more business with Greg.”
“Tabatha really saved us during a week where our schedules kept changing. She was extremely flexible with the timing, and always responded right away to any communications. Of course she also took great care to learn about my dog’s needs and how to best walk him. My dog immediately loved her and had the best time playing in the dog park. I would definitely recommend Tabatha!”

“Max loves Leah so much! Leah is such a kind soul! She really helped me through an unexpected injury, by showing up daily to take Max for a nice walk. Thank you Leah!”

“Jessica was great, she contacted me about needs and expectations before scouts walk and stopped by for a meet and greet! She really cared for scout on her check in and even made sure she had plenty of water before she left! Will definitely be using Jessica again.”

“Jennifer is awesome! She is always on time. She pays special attention to my dog to make sure he isn’t overheating on walks and he always comes back super happy!”

“We’ve been working with Ben for a lot of walks and one several day long pet sit. He’s been awesome. Such cute walk photos, timely, and communicates really well. We’re lucky to have him getting our dogs a little extra love”

“TJ is AWESOME!!!!! My dog is so excited and happy to spend time with him on his walks. I am so grateful that he has been able to give him attention and exercise while I am laid up with an injury.”

About: I have been caring for animals since my childhood and have several of my own. I am a veterinary assistant and am comfortable with animals of all ages and sizes, as well as with responsibilities such as administering medication, walks, special diets, etc. I work and go to school part time. I have the most freedom on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, but can also periodically check on your pet on the other days of the week. I can do overnights as well. I will work with your pets needs whether that is specific feeding times, a walking schedule, or other routines that you and your pet typically do.
“I was looking for someone nearby to check in on and walk my pup, and I’m so glad Kayla was available. She was always on time, kept me updated, and took great care of Franky. Thanks again!”

“Alyssa does a great job with my Bailey girl. She takes multiple pictures, let's me know how Baikey was from start to finish, if there is anything I should check when I get home. And most importantly Bailey loves when she comes over.”

About: I believe that I’m a kind and gentle person when it comes to providing care. I work as a nurse part time and a stay at home mother the rest of the day. My daughter and I love walking over to the park or diving to a lovely hidden park and allowing our furry friends to stretch their legs. I am actively taking online courses to provide puppy training in the near future. I’ve also done dog walking off and on through the years as a fun pastime!! I will provide your loved ones with a safe and fun environment in which they can play and be themselves!! I have a part time job as a nurse for the VA. I will be available after 2pm until the agreed upon times for ending our day,, Wednesday-Sunday. Pick up times can be arranged for anytime with in reason or prior arrangements I do not have a yard but we walk or drive to the local parks that are safe and fun for our furry friends. We also allow our friends to play through out the front room of our apartment if I’m providing over night care.
About: I have had cats and dogs around since I was a child. I have been boarding for almost 2 years, and walking/doing check-ins for nearly 8 years. I started out doing walks to help fill my want for pets. But now that I have two of my own, I realized this is something I really love doing and it is always a joy to meet other peoples' fur babies. In my home, I do have one other dog who LOVES to play and gets along with every animal and human he meets. I have a scaredy cat, and a handful of kiddos who I have taught animal etiquette to since they were all babies. We have cared for the smallest dogs to the largest. We have had older dogs, puppies, dogs recovering from surgery, and females in heat (although not at the moment until our puppy is fixed). We love your babies like they are our own, and love to be able to take them with us if we ever go on any adventures while they are here (of course, with permission!) I am a stay at home mom, so I am home the majority of the day to care for any animals in my home. My kids are AMAZING with animals, as I have taught lots of animal etiquette over the years caring for animals -- and now that we have our own fur babies too. In my home, we just treat your fur babies like one of our own. We give them lots of attention, play time, walk time, etc. I also incorporate your schedules with ours (ie feeding, etc). If there are any special requests, I fulfill those needs. When I go to a clients home, I respect everything around me and be as gentle and careful as to make sure that the fur babies are comfortable with me in their home.
About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets..." I work for my self. I would love to get to know your dogs and cats I have plenty of time on my hands right now. I'm very respectful for other people's things, and I'll follow pet owners request and recommendations to take care of their home and pets.and if your pet likes a special treat please let me know. 😊
“Rachel is prompt and easy to talk to. She pays attention and was really great with our dogs, who are a handful to walk. We will be booking her for pet sitting this month for sure.”

“Amie was amazing!! She has great communication skills and precisely followed through on everything we discussed prior to Ruby’s walks while I was out of town. Ruby was even better behaved for Amie than she is for us, I cannot recommend Amie enough!!”
