“Aileen was amazing! She was so good with my Penny and I can tell Penny liked her a lot. Aileen provided updates, was great at communicating and sent me some great pics. She was so kind, and playful with Penny and I appreciate that. It's been hard to find someone that can give me peace of mind when I am at work and Aileen was able to do they for me. I 100% recommend her. You will not be disappointed.”
“Bradley and Greta LOVE Jared. We hired him to give them a mid-day break/walk while we were unavailable and he gave them so much more than we were hoping for! He not only took them on a 30+ walk around Green Lake, but he also took them to the dog park to ensure our pups were nice and tired before returning them home. Even though it was only a walk, he gave updates about his arrival/departure times, what they were doing, and how the dogs were. Our dogs were super happy and exhausted when we returned, so we know they're looking forward to seeing Jared again. We plan to use Jared for both our dog walking and house sitting needs in the future. He's our favorite sitter so far!”

About: In 2012 I got my little Yorkie Paisley from a place called Puppy Town. Over the years me and Paisley has grown close and she has become my best friend. Within a few days, I had housebroken her, at first she didn’t know how to walk on a leash, but was practice and patience, she became a master of walking on a leash to the point that she enjoys walking. Although Paisley does not enjoy baths, I do give baths and it brings me joy to see her fresh and clean I have to brush her every day to maintain that beautiful golden coat. I’m afraid to clip her nails so I will take her to Banfield hospital to get her nails clipped. Over the years Paisley became older, and her eye sight has declined, so every morning I have to take the time to take her to her food. She knows where the bathroom is at, but sometimes she’ll have accidents and I have to be patient with her and I have to clean up her accidents and I have to keep an eye on her at all times to make sure she doesn’t hurt herself. Her food and water is still in the same place however, I had to rearrange some furniture and things to make it easier for her to get around… Every summer, I will purchase flea and tick protection, cause I can’t have no pests bothering my baby!

About: I got my first dog 14 years ago and he’s still running around being the fluffiest pup on the block. Since then I’ve also cared for 2 more pups, 4 cats, a bunny, and a hamster. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and with various different needs. I’ve rescued pets which involved handling after surgeries, administering medications, bathing, feeding often, and it’s all worth it to see a tail wagging again. I’m free to watch your kitty/pup (all ages) on weekends. Fridays starting at 5pm. I can stay over Friday and Saturday nights. Availability ends Sunday 5pm. I’m careful to read all instructions before arriving, I ask any questions I may have ahead of time. I will get there promptly, wait for the pet to approach me and not approach until their body language indicates it’s ok to do so. Start on the tasks at hand and if needed handle them with love and care. Be very patient with them and ensure all messes the furry baby made are cleaned up. Give a summary of care and anything that stood out regarding behavior/health/environment.

Jake M.
“Jake has been responsible for multiple dogs in the past and has shown that he truly enjoys their company through the way he talks to them and treats them.

He is always delighted to see dogs and continues to talk about them even after their interactions.”

I couldn’t be happier with Emily. She’s reliable, friendly, and respectful to my German Shepard puppy. I really appreciate the updates and photos during the walk—it gives me peace of mind knowing my dog is in such good hands. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!
Rhys is the BEST!!! It is a miracle I found him. My dog absolutely loves him and he is SO good with her. (And she is very high energy). He always responds to me quickly and is extremely dependable, kind, and caring. I trust him with my life! Thank you Rhys for always helping us and going above and beyond to get my dog so much exercise. So glad to have you!
Sarah took my pup out and got him to walk and potty in the rain. I can’t do that. She also helped a bit with the destruction he left in my apartment after I had the audacity to leave for work without him. She even brought over some boxes for him to destroy (at my request) so he didn’t destroy something more dangerous. If I am ever brave enough to leave my pup home alone again, I won’t hesitate to ask Sarah to feed and walk him. She was very helpful with all I asked her to do as I tried to make the best of a bad situation.
Sarah was very communicative and helpful with my pup’s first extended time home alone while I was working. He broke out of his pen and Sarah helped calm him down after his walk when he was going a little crazy in his crate. She tried to adjust the pen so he couldn’t break out, but I’m not sure anything would stop him from getting to the door and he broke out again. But after all that, the only damage he did was he chewed up a receipt. Sarah did a great job of calming him down before she left
