“Mary was amazing with Lolita! Our girl can be challenging to walk—there's everything from pulling on her leash to getting reactive with dogs when she encounters them—and Mary handled it all with aplomb and confidence. Not to mention how well Lolita took to her! She was in great hands with Mary and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.”


“I can't enough good things about Matt. He's upbeat and friendly to Truman and myself. When walking, he gets updates from friends in the neighborhood and keeps me abreast. Besides walking, he's fed my fish and did small things around the house for me. Truman loves him and I get to speak to him after his walk.”


“Darcy is a lifesaver! She is so good with Teddy and really cares about him Looking forward to more bookings with her. Thanks so much!!”


About: I have helped my family take care of our dogs since I was around 12. I know plenty about dog body language and what they like. I am currently working 2 part time jobs. I am looking to make some extra cash as the weather warms up and also meet some very cute animals. my schedule changes every week but I am available during the afternoon & evening most often. As a responsible pet owner, I will ensure your pet's safety and also take care of their environment. I would never leave them in hot cars or unsupervised in an unprotected area.

About: Love working with dogs and getting them outside for playtime or a walk around the block. Started working with dogs around 2020 once my own puppy needed to continue his training and socialization. I want to make sure everyone is safe and that your dog has a successful walk. For first time introductions, if you know how your dog reacts around strangers we can meet inside or outside your house or place of your choosing. If your dog is more on the shy side or can be territorial, we can meet in a spot in your yard until your dog feels safe. I am comfortable with all size dogs and will walk with a small handful of your dogs food instead of treats if they need a little motivation or you are working on training. I will gladly take photos or videos of your pup if that is something you would like. I currently work full time but am available to walk on Saturdays and Sundays. My availability on weekdays will vary depending on schedule and weather. As of right now, my weekday availability will be after 6 p.m. If you are unsure, please message me :) If your dog is friendly, I am also open to walking your dog with my dog, 5 year old sheepadoodle. But I understand and accept that some dogs need to be walked solo. I currently am not accepting bording inside of my own home. Renting the space I am living and I would need to set up a special agreement to ensure the house and dog are safe.

“Leah was right on time and was good with Tucker. Just the help we needed at this time.”

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities, I offer more than just basic pet sitting—I provide reliable, loving, and structured care tailored to each pup's needs.

I take time to build trust with each dog so they feel safe, loved, and at ease while their owners are away. I stick closely to their usual routines—walks, meals, playtime, and any specific care instructions—so they experience consistency and comfort. My goal is to make my presence a positive and calming one, so your dog feels secure and well-cared for every step of the way.
