About: I am a fitness coach who loves staying active outside and having a dog myself I know how important it is for pups to get their exercise in! I love to take them on different paths to allow them to explore! I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I am constantly around animals and having to commit to taking care of them. I'm comfortable around all dogs and willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving them! I would love to take them to places they can interact with other dogs while you're away!

I always make my schedule around my dog Lola, no matter what! If I’m at the gym, I make sure I’m not there for long so then she can go out and get exercise! I am currently home full time and am available for drop ins or house sitting when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings.

About: I have lived with dogs my entire life and have also had experience raising puppies and kittens. I love cats just as much. I have an 8 year old dog named Percy, and 10 year old cat named Toulouse who love and play with another all day! I have experience with dogs ranging from different sizes and personalities, but no matter what I know each dog is special. I’ve treated all of the animals in my life like they’re family, and have built a loving relationship with each and would love the opportunity to get to know your animals as well. I understand how important it is to treat each animal with love and respect, and will do everything in my power to ensure the safety and happiness of your furry family member. I’m available most mornings and nights. I am also most afternoons depending on the week and the clients I have booked for my regular job. On Fridays and weekends I have the most flexibility! I treat each animal with the safety and care they deserve! I believe all animals are apart of the family and should always be treated as such.

She sent me pictures of everything and gave me complete peace of mind! I will definitely be a repeat customer!”

About: Finding someone you trust with your pets is a big deal—whether you need a regular midday walk, a drop-in while you’re away, or someone to settle in with them overnight. My goal is simple: keep your pets happy and comfortable, stick to the routines they know, and give you one less thing to worry about. With 20 years of my own pet care experience, I’ve learned that every animal is different. I pay attention to the little things—their personalities, habits, comfort levels, and all those quirks that make them them. Some want long walks and plenty of playtime, some are happiest curled up beside me on the couch, and others need a little patience and space before deciding we’re friends. I’m happy to meet them wherever they are. You can count on regular updates, plenty of photos, and communication you won’t have to chase down. Whether I’m there for a 30-minute visit or making your home my home base while you’re away, I take the responsibility seriously. That means thoughtful care for your pets, respect for your home, and attention to the little details that help everything run smoothly. At the end of the day, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets are in good hands—whether I’m part of their everyday routine or caring for them while you’re away. And yes, they’re probably getting a few extra cuddles along the way! I am self employed so I have the ability to give your pet all the time and focus it needs. I routinely walk my dog at the local parks and around the neighborhood multiple times daily and could easily do the same for your puppers or kittens too. I care for my cat daily with lots of play and petting too. I care for pets in their own home, where they’re usually happiest and most comfortable. I follow your instructions closely and take the time to learn what’s normal for your pet—from their routine and personality to the little things that help them feel safe and settled. I’m mindful of doors, gates, leashes, medications, feeding routines, and any special instructions specific to your pet and home. I’m also respectful of the trust that comes with being welcomed into someone’s home. I’ll care for your space thoughtfully, keep you updated along the way, and pay attention to anything that seems out of the ordinary. My goal is for you to feel confident that both your pets and your home are in good hands.

Brooke is very knowledgeable about dogs and handled my big dog exceptionally well! She showed me a new way to set the leash so he was more controlled and comfortable, she is communicative about changes and generally just a really competent handler. I trust her with my boy who is a challenging big dog, highly recommend this sitter/walker!

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
