“Hennessy relieved so much of my stress while I was on vacation. She was very patient with my Nala, who is still a puppy and rough around the edges. She ever took her for an extended walk because she noticed my mom was working from home. I have never been able to get Nala to walk far distances due to her fear of new surroundings, but Hennessy was able to. She provided me with tips and tricks that I could use to get Nala to be more engaged. I highly recommend Hennessy. she has an amazing work ethic and your pet will be safe and well taken care of!”

She’s kind, dependable, and truly great with our pup. Communication has been excellent—she’s always transparent and makes full use of the Rover Card, which gives us peace of mind by showing the walking route and bathroom updates. If you’re looking for a friendly dog walker who’s patient with younger dogs, I highly recommend Jaida!”

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my commitment to personalized, attentive care tailored to each dog’s unique needs. I go beyond basic sitting by building strong relationships with the dogs, ensuring their comfort and security. My ability to offer customized care, whether it’s for special dietary requirements, medical needs, or behavioral support, shows a deep understanding of canine well-being. Regular updates, including pictures or videos, keep pet owners at ease, and your experience ensures that each dog receives the highest level of attention and safety. With a flexible work schedule, i’m in an excellent position to offer dog walks at times that work best for both you and the dog. I can take dogs on regular walks, whether it’s mornings, midday breaks, or evening strolls, ensuring they get the exercise they need without feeling rushed. My availability also allows you to offer extra-long walks or spontaneous outings, which can be great for dogs who need more exercise or variety. My flexibility allows you to be consistent and reliable, which is key in building trust with both dogs and their owners. By offering this level of personalized care, i can help ensure both the pet and the client feel comfortable and confident while i care for their furry loved one.

Lisa G.
“I have two dogs (Yorkie & Half/Lab Half Pitt) ages 14 & 10. They are everything to me. Lisa is so caring and playful with them. During a trip I had I needed someone to watch my pups and help with Chloe’s anxiety medication. Not only did she calm my nerves since I was traveling away without my pups she sent me many videos and pictures of my dogs and assured me that Chloe was doing well. She didn’t even get anxiety during her stay which is rare for Chloe! Callie didn’t want to leave! They love taking long walks with her especially when she takes them to the doggie park by my home. Any person with a loving pet will find comfort in Lisa taking good care of him/her.”
