“I had never used a dog walking service before, but I was in a jam and needed help fast. Holly, Josh, and Grace came through and got me scheduled right away! My dog can be a handful with his crazy zoomies, but they handled him like pros. It’s such a relief knowing he’s in good hands, getting the exercise and attention he needs while I’m at work. I’m so grateful for their flexibility and care—I’ll definitely be booking again!”


“We needed a last minute dog-walker and Madison came to our rescue! She responded promptly and took our dog out on a nice, long walk in the park. We would definitely use her again!”


“Kristin is the first dog-sitter we have allowed to watch our large German shepherd, who can be intimidating, and she is an absolute natural! She is extremely responsive to all of our communication, adheres to all of our requests, and our dog loves her! We will definitely be calling on her in the future.”


“Lori was a pleasure to work with. Mollie fell in love with her and her affectionate care during their walks. I would not hesitate to ask for her assistance in the future when and if needed. I highly recommend Lori for anyone who needs their pet looked after or walked or for any other service she offers. She's a Five Star for your Furbabies!”

About: I have worked in the dog training/boarding industry for over 7 years. I have raised dogs since I could walk especially large and stubborn dogs such as German Shepard’s. I love all breeds and sizes of dogs. I recently moved back to granite falls after training dogs for over 7 years to pursue a career in firefighting. And meet some new four legged friends I live near the dog park and a large park so we can take visits there or go throw a ball in the large field.

About: My name is Samantha and I have been around and cared for dogs most of my life. I have always loved dogs. I currently have two dogs. The oldest is almost 4 years old and he is a Dalmatian. The youngest is 2 years old and is a mixed breed, we fostered him and decided to adopt him. They are both friendly and love other dogs. I have been fostering dogs for local rescue groups for about 2 years now. I really enjoy helping out dogs that are in need of some extra love, attention, and a place to stay while they find their forever homes. If you are in need of someone to take your dog/ dogs for a walk, come let them out to get some exercise and use the bathroom, someone to watch your dog while you are away, or whatever the need may be I would be happy to help.
