“I'll definitely book Jackie again. It's hard to leave your pup in the hands of someone you just met, but Jackie made us feel that Cooper was in good hands. We appreciated her consideration and care with him.”
“We cannot say enough about Nicholas . He has gone above and beyond in the 4 weeks that he has taken care of our beautiful pup. His communication and ability to adjust to our everyday needs are superb! Thanks Nicholas we look forward to keep having you be part of Midas’s life”
“Michael was great with Rocky. My father had hip surgery two weeks ago so it's a load of stress off my mind that we found someone that can help when my brother or myself are not available. Michael was prompt and professional and sent pics while out on their walks. Rocky really likes him! Will definitely be using again! Thanks Michael!”
“Robert has been walking Lucy daily and would definitely recommend him! Really thankful to have Robert taking care of my dog, especially during the summer in the heat. Robert is an excellent communicator and very thoughtful person.”
“Andrea was great meeting both my pups for the first time! She asked questions about needs and anything important that would be helpful for walks or interactions with other animals/people. Introducing new people to a household can be stressful sometimes on pets, and my older pet can get protective. However, Andrea was super patient and understanding when it came to my slow introduction process. I appreciate her time and love for pets!”
“Wow . Pat is the best . He went beyond today just taking him on a walk instead of using the back yard in this freezing weather and warmed his paws AND carried him for a block when his paws too cold/ salty And he was crying . Thanks so much !!!!!”
“Sure! Here’s a brief review you can use or tweak as needed: Jo has been amazing—she’s always prompt, incredibly reliable, and even works on training during walks, which has made a big difference. She’s also super flexible and always manages to accommodate any schedule changes. Highly recommend!”
“We’ve been working with Adrian for nearly a year. He’s great with our Shiba Inu. We’ve found him to be very reliable and responsive. He’s also flexible with picking up extra walks as needed. Highly recommend!”
“I had back to back bunionectomies & was unable to walk our dog while my husband was out of town. Patrick came & saved the day……excellent with our 85 pound Shepherd/Goldendoodle mix!! He went above & beyond!! So grateful definitely will be using Patrick again!!”
“Keri has been walking my dog Hazel almost every day for months now. She’s been so great with her (and flexible on scheduling) and Hazel looks forward to her walks every day!”
“Jessica is AMAZING! She’s very knowledgeable, thoughtful, and clearly passionate about what she does. When our Maxy was having unexpected stranger-danger issues, she took the time to ask many questions about his past and possible triggers. She took all of the info I gave her, came up with a plan to help remedy the situation, and even gave me suggestions. We’re so grateful for her!”
About: Ive been surrounded and have taken care of pets all my life without actually having one myself, because of allergy problems in my family. However I took any chance I had to take care of friends and other family members pets from small kittens to chunky huskies. I have a fully remote work job and can be available throughout the whole day other than some meetings throughout the day on the weekdays. I have a fenced in front and backyard with ample grass space in my backyard for pets to run around in! But I also can cater to any request and routines that the owner provides.
About: Hello! I would love to take your dog for a walk, run, or just play at the house. I have owned three dogs in my life time, a Yorkie bichon and two Rhodesian ridgebacks, one still living. I have experience caring for friends’ and families’ animals, including huskies, black labs, and smaller breeds too. You can feel confident that your animals are safe with me! I am available while my daughter is in preschool at Edgebrook elementary. I am available from 11-3 Monday through Friday for long/short walks and drop ins. I will make sure your dog is safe and happy before I leave. I will leave it just as it was when I arrived. I am used to waking my 90 pound Rhodesian ridgebacks, so trust that I can walk larger dogs.
“We’ve been lucky enough to have Arlene as our dog walker for the past year, and she’s truly even better than all the glowing reviews say! Our pup is the sweetest, but also pretty anxious, and Arlene understood her right from the start. We completely trust her with our dog’s safety and care, and she always keeps us in the loop with real-time updates. Plus, she shares thoughtful tips and suggestions that really make a difference. We are so grateful to have found her!”

Tetiana is AMAZING! She truly takes care of my pets as if they are her own. She’s always quick to respond and timely with her visits. My dog LOVES her and is always excited to see her! I’m very grateful for Tetiana and everything she does for us! We’ve rebooked with her numerous times and will continue to do so! ❤️
Jonathon was excellent! I originally had my dog set up with a sitter, however they canceled the day before. We were frantically trying to find someone else, even considering that one of us will just stay behind. But here comes Jonathon to the rescue! He gladly accepted the request the day of. He was very prompt with replies and always sent pictures to let us know how Molly was doing. He even made sure she had enough food and water, even cleaned up after she had an accident. If we need a dog walker again, I’d make sure to reach out to Jonathon first and hope that he’s available!
