10. Muhammed K.
“I cannot say enough good things about Mo! He is literally a godsend. He is so great with my dogs . My dogs get more excited to see him than me . I have been in so many instances where for one reason or another I could not make it in time to walk my dogs . And he has always come through. Whoever has dogs knows how important it is for you to be able to trust the person who will be taking care or walking your dogs . Ever since I found Mo, I have already been on two vacations because I feel very comfortable with him house sitting my dogs. Before I would always be hesitant and trying to rely on family that most of the time would not come through. He has even showered my dogs because they are so much more chill with him than me ! He is awesome!”


11. Lauren T.

“Lauren came to the rescue during a really chaotic time in my life. I was dealing with a lot of major change and needed to find a sitter ASAP. My dogs can be a handful and I was really worried about a stranger coming in but she blew my expectations out of the water and I'm so grateful for that. They warmed up to her right away, and I knew right from the meet and greet that it was all going to work out. Her schedule was flexible and fit my needs perfectly. She always left me detailed visit notes and updates too which was awesome. I would not hesitate to highly recommend her services to anyone needing a trusted sitter! 😊❤️”


12. Ashley G.
“Ashley has completely outdone herself. Considering her amazing communication and care. Having someone who is obsessed with caring for cats and loving them so much. It makes sense why she would choose to take care of other cats as well! Her ability to understand what her cats wants and needs straight away is something we all need from a loving caregiver.”

“I have a 14 year old Yorker terrier name Zeus and I'm so happy that I came across Nancy's profile. She answered all my questions. I am very thankful that she took the time to answer them all. Nancy was very sweet and professional and her genuine love of animals. She always makes sure to take care of Zeus in such a loving way and I can't tell you how much that means to me. She is a true blessing and I'm absolutely happy with her services. ”

16. Frank F.

“When I needed someone to look after my two aggressive Rottweilers while I was out of town, Frank came to the rescue. Despite not having a chance to meet beforehand, Frank agreed to drop in, demonstrating his professionalism and flexibility. From the moment Frank stepped into my home, his professionalism and confidence put me at ease. He provided regular updates, ensuring my Rottweilers were safe and happy. Despite the challenges of handling aggressive breeds, Frank handled them with care and expertise. I'm incredibly grateful for Frank’s dedication, flexibility, and peace of mind he provided. His willingness to go above and beyond, even without a formal introduction, speaks volumes about his commitment to his clients and their pets. I wholeheartedly recommend Frank for anyone in need of reliable and compassionate care for their furry companions.”


17. Monique B.
“Monique has always watched my dogs and has done a great job! She truly treats each dog like they are her own. My dogs are happy when they are there. One of them has anxiety and he does well at her house. I’m so happy she is expanding her services so other pups can benefit from it! We have already booked 2 more weeks next year at Dogs Run Inn. I definitely recommend to everyone!!!”


18. Kareling R.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all ages for more than 9 years, pets of my neighbors, friends and my own pets, I consider that they need the best care in the world as they give everything for us being our companions on this journey that is life, talking a little about my experience, I have taken care of small and large pets to bathe and feed them and walk them, I have training in the face of any altercation on the street. Being something that I like to do since before coming to this country is something that I want to dedicate myself to for an indeterminate time. I have a fenced yard and at the moment I don't have small children, so all the attention will be focused on pets for as long as they need it.


19. Vanessa A.


“Vanessa is amazing! Felix loves her !”


20. Evelyn B.
“I have known Evelyn for quite some time and she has been an incredible blessing to my family as a pet caregiver. Her attentiveness and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. She was instrumental in caring for our family dog, Nina before her passing, always going above and beyond to ensure her comfort and happiness. Nina was always excited to see Evelyn. I trusted her completely, knowing that our Nina was in the best hands. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about animals, I can't recommend Evelyn highly enough!”
