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!

I was thrilled with Melanie's fantastic dog walking services. From the first meet and greet, it was clear that my furbaby was not only in safe hands, but also with someone who genuinely cares. Melanie took the time to understand my dog's unique personality, preferences, and quirks. Being that I have a dog with special needs, this put my mind at ease. Melanie treats my dog like family, prioritizes his safety and well-being, and consistently goes the extra mile. I wholeheartedly recommend Melanie!

Courtney was FABULOUS! For any dog mamas that have separation anxiety like me, she was so communicative and responsible throughout our entire experience. We will 100% be using Courtney in the future again!

I highly recommend Donald as a pet sitter. He did an outstanding job watching my dog, Dixie, while I was away on vacation. Not only did he take great care of her, but he also sent me daily updates and pictures so I knew she was in good hands. Dixie was well-fed, exercised, and loved, and I could tell she was happy and comfortable the whole time. Donald truly went above and beyond to make sure Dixie was well taken care of, and I am so grateful to have found him. I will definitely be using his services again.

I've known Jennifer for over 2 years, she is a dear friend and has the biggest heart for animals. Time and again she has demonstrated a love for animals that goes above and beyond. She took my 14 year old Chihuahua/Feist in and loved him as if he were her own. He is happy and healthy and spends his days in the abundant love and care of Jennifer. She is conscientious and pragmatic, reliable and friendly. No better person could take care of my pet.

Over the years of knowing Morgan I have been witness to her growth in knowledge, passion, and experience working with dogs. From growing up fostering labs to helping out families with pet/house sitting, Morgan has done nothing but exceed expectations. She is responsible, trustworthy, and truly the best there is when it comes to watching over our little fur babies. If anyone asks for recommendations she is my first every time. You will not be disappointed!

About: I’ve been caring for animals since i could walk and doing so is a huge passion of mine. I love walking, running, playing, cuddling with my Dog and i can’t wait to meet yours! I am athletic, energetic, and therefore love going out on walks, runs. I’m dependable and honest, it’s only fair to allow people you can rely on around someone as important as a pet, especially into the privacy of your own home. I assure you great service and promise to treat others’ pets as if they were my very own. This is a huge responsibility which i know requires attentiveness. No Dog is too big, too small or too strong, As your walker will do my part while they are in my care. I look forward to meeting him or her! I am currently working from home! More than happy to keep your babies company. I like to be as accommodating as i can. At the end of the day, They are ALWAYS the priority. I have a designated park for dogs on the side of my building but I will ensure your dog is on leash always to ensure safety. Upon request, I have socialized and trained numerous dogs- I am more than happy to bring both or one of my dogs on walks or to the park. I also can have my dogs separated, Crated or off site if needed.

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: Currently have years of experience caring for different pets from different homes! I love all animals as if they were my own and may even leave a tad more spoiled than before! I’m available for drop in visits before, during and after work as well as weekends! I will spend time with your fur babies while I’m there. I can’t promise they won’t be spoiled a little more when I leave! I have 4 dogs in home who do well with other animals. At this time I am not accepting boarding or doggy daycare due to being gone during the day for work.

I have a family of what some consider to be, “difficult” pets, but Emma was patient, and the dogs loved her! Jack Black, my french bulldog, requires medicine and special attention, while Bongwater simply dislikes most people, but Emma balanced all of their needs and left the dogs clean, well fed, rested, and happy!
