“On very short notice, Boryana was able to step in, take the time to meet me and Yoda before walking and feeding Yoda. She was fantastic! I would definitely use her again and recommend her highly.”


About: I’ve had pets in my home ever since I was born, and have always helped with pet care since I was able to. I’ve owned dogs of different sizes and all ages, cats, and many small animals! I have experience not only with my own pets but with taking care of family members’ pets when they leave for vacations or other extended absences, as well as ongoing weekly volunteer work taking care of shelter cats and kittens. Being able to read an animal’s behavior to understand when they are anxious, happy, or unwilling to be touched is extremely important to me and something I have learned over the years being surrounded by animals. Ensuring an animal’s comfort and building trust is as much of a priority to me as ensuring their safety and health. I’m currently an undergraduate student in college, and so over the summer between semesters I have a much more open schedule. I’m available over the week during the afternoon and evenings over summers, and on weekends throughout the semester! I will always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort, making sure they are fed and taken care of while also ensuring they feel comfortable being around me. An animal’s boundaries are very important to me, and I am very meticulous when it comes to making sure everything that needs to be done gets done. I always keep you updated with plenty of pictures of your fur babies!

“Shalini was great with my dog! She followed all our instructions perfectly and was an absolute pleasure to work with. We will definitely rebook with her for walks in the future!”


“We can't say enough wonderful things about Kate! From the moment we met, it was clear she has a genuine love for dogs and our Harvey absolutely thrives during their walks. Kate consistently go above and beyond, making sure Harvey gets plenty of exercise, and mental stimulation. We always receive detailed updates with photos, which gives us complete peace of mind knowing Harvey is having a blast. Kate has become a trusted part of our family and we would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-notch dog walker.”


“Our dog loves the time he spends with Michaela. She happily accommodates our requests to extend each visit to allow time for play and a feeding on top of a walk. She sends photos and updates which puts us at ease. Michaela is flexible and responds quickly - both of which we appreciate so much when planning care for our dog! Would absolutely recommend!”


“Emily is responsive & reliable ! She has walked our dog Hudson a few times and is incredibly responsible and takes the time to play with our dog in her drop and visit beside just walking him and feeding him! We’re very glad to have found her for our dog Hudson!!”


About: I have experience with all-size pups. I grew up with dogs, and we had an amazingly well-mannered German Shepherd and 2 lovely cats. Sadly, they all passed away, and we are ready to love on your pets <3 I’m a housewife and graduate student. So, I’m always home with the pups! I am also a certified pet nutritionist, and I have experience working in a pet store. We send pictures, videos, and daily updates so you know how your fur baby is doing throughout the day :) My husband Kevin and I work as a team! I am always home and can easily care for your pup’s needs throughout the day! We can take walks, go out, and cuddle all day. For drop-in visits, my husband Kevin and I either visit together or either one of us goes to walk/check in on your baby :) We have a fenced in yard to get all the zoomies out and still go for walks for extra exercise and exploration. We only take one family at a time to ensure safety and maximum cuddles!

“Kristina was great! She followed all of my instructions perfectly and was super sweet to my dog, even when my dog was being a bit difficult. She communicated well and was respectful of my home while I was away. Would definitely book with her again.”



“Jess was super reliable and great with our 9 1/2 year old this past weekend! Even though we were having the first heat wave of the summer, she made sure to give Maggie the care and the walks she needed. Jess made sure Rover was charging us for the correct number of visits and sent great photos of her times with our Lab. Having her son along to play and help out was an extra bonus! I highly recommend Jess!”


“Ashley did phenomenal and went above and beyond when I needed someone in rather short notice. She always kept me informed and sent plenty of pictures of my pup while I was away. She is able to easily establish a great connection with animals. You can tell she has a genuine compassion and love for animals, especially when they are apart from their owner. Ashley is very professional, friendly, and skillful at caring for animals. Despite having a prior engagement to attend a wedding, she came back afterwards late at night to care for my dog when my flight was delayed. I highly recommend Ashley as she is an excellent care giver.”

About: I’ve taken care of my neighborhood’s friendly Shih Tzu whenever his parents would go out of town for the past 10 years.

Regular feeding, bathroom, and playtime guaranteed 👍 I’m currently working virtually and largely asynchronously so I can meet your dog’s needs at all times during those days which I have indicated my availability. My home consists of two pet-loving parents and myself—no children are in the house. The house is kept clean, with all food placed in inaccessible cabinets. There are several large fields within the neighborhood that do not require crossing any roads.
