“On time, took my pooch for a good long walk, very sweet, great communication.”
“Dependable on very short notice. The dogs were tired out and happy when we got home - the best result to be had for pet parents. Thanks, Amanda, we'd highly recommend you to anyone.”
“Jessica was great, she contacted me about needs and expectations before scouts walk and stopped by for a meet and greet! She really cared for scout on her check in and even made sure she had plenty of water before she left! Will definitely be using Jessica again.”
“My dog got two awesome walks today thanks to Robert and Holly. The walks were long and I loved being able to see the map of where they went. Good pics were sent. My dog said hello when I got home and then fell right asleep! I think she had a very good day. I look forward to hiring them for my next outing.”

As a freelance music industry professional, my schedule offers unparalleled flexibility, allowing me to provide top-notch dog walking and sitting services with a touch of professionalism and friendliness.

About: I've always had a love for animals and have been trusted by family, friends, neighbors, and acquaintances for years to help take care of their babies while they are away. I have past experience working in vet clinics and animal shelters, which has led to general knowledge of animal behavior, as well as experience in medication administration. My schedule is primarily wide open to pet and house sitting, with the occasional weekend away. This allows me to be both flexible and available for your needs. I understand the trust put on me as a caretaker and act with the utmost care and respect towards the homes and animals of others.
About: I was a dog owner for 13 amazing years. Unfortunately, I had to say goodbye to my best friend about seven years ago. Since then, I have found great comfort in caring for others' pets to the best of my ability. I believe in allowing dogs to spend as much time outside as possible through long walks and play sessions in the yard. I also believe that a dog needs mental stimulation in order to be happy, so, if you'd like, I can work with your dog on basic obedience skills and even try and teach them a trick or two! But most importantly, I know dogs need love. Obviously I can't replace you, but I can give them lots of affection until you get home. I make a point to take a walk every day, usually around lunch or right after work (my worst day ends at 4pm) and I'd love to bring your friend along with me! I love being able to spend lots of quality time with your pets when you're away, with lots of cuddles and play time, and maybe a few treats!
About: I have been caring for animal since my childhood and have several of my own. I am a veterinary assistant and am comfortable with animals of all ages and sizes, as well as with responsibilities such as administering medication, walks, special diets, etc. I work and go to school part time. I have the most freedom on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, but can also periodically check on your pet on the other days of the week. I can do overnights as well. I will work with your pets needs whether that is specific feeding times, a walking schedule, or other routines that you and your pet typically do.
“Tabatha really saved us during a week where our schedules kept changing. She was extremely flexible with the timing, and always responded right away to any communications. Of course she also took great care to learn about my dog’s needs and how to best walk him. My dog immediately loved her and had the best time playing in the dog park. I would definitely recommend Tabatha!”

About: I have been caring for others' pets for over 20 years. As a former veterinary technician, I have extensive experience working with cats, dogs, and exotics. In addition to providing care for senior pets, pets with medical needs, and puppies, I am well-versed in crate training for dogs and have a deep understanding of dog and cat behaviors. Furthermore, I am passionate about helping shelters and rescues, and have dedicated a significant amount of time to this cause. My experience in these areas has allowed me to develop a comprehensive understanding of pet care and behavior, making me well-equipped to provide the best possible care for your beloved pets. I am a teacher, my schedule allows me to come home at lunch to let my pets out for a potty break in the middle of the day. I do not work on weekends and have major holidays off. I live with three dogs (two small and one large), two cats, and one bearded dragon. I also have two older children. My house has specific areas for the dogs, and they are crated when I am not home. The cats are free to roam. I have a large fenced backyard with rocks and fake grass. Additionally, I have two extra crates - one for a medium/large dog and one for a small dog. All dogs must be crate-trained and cat-friendly..

20. james S.
“Jim is a five star sitter for sure ! My girl Kai is a 10 yr old Husky with severe separation anxiety so I was very concerned about leaving her with a sitter. My concerns were unfounded. Kai took to Jim right away. His house is calming and spotless with a cozy dog bed, stuffed dog toys, dog puzzles and treats. Jim took Kai for walks 3 x's a day, updating me on a regular basis with photos. He loves the presence of dogs and he gave me peace of mind I was looking for. I HIGHLY recommend Jim !”
