5. Kylie-Jean S.
“Kylie has been caring for my dog, hazel, periodically for the past 6 months. Sometimes she takes her on walks when I’m away from the house for too long. She also has pet sat for me when I went away for a weekend. She’s always very responsible and puts my dogs need at top priority. She asks questions to ensure she takes the best care of hazel and attends to her needs. She’s treats my hazel like she’s her own when she’s with her and I feel good knowing that. I highly recommend her.”


6. Vincent G.

“Vincent was a very attentive sitter and took great care of our cats. One of our cats got sick while we were away. He was in close contact with us regarding his condition and also reached out to our vet to get their advice. I can highly recommend him as someone who can be trusted to look after your pets as he would his own. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him as a sitter again.”


7. Katherine L.

9. Kim B.

About: My name is Kim and I have always been a HUGE animal lover! I started caring for animals in my neighborhood as a teen and young adult. I have volunteered at animal shelters and have taken care of friends and relatives pets for years. I have so much love to give your dog (or cat or lizard or bunny or...) Walks, playtime, treats and tons of affection are some of the things I can offer your furry loved one :) Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Thanks for checking out my profile and I look forward to taking care of your family member! Kim :) **I work in the school system so summer time and vacations I am around a lot more during the day!!!** I work in the school system so I leave early in the morning and am back by 3pm. Weekends and summers are free so I have plenty of time to be with your dog! I only go to client's homes at this point since I am now renting. I am trustworthy and have plenty of references if you need!


10. Marly L.

“Marly did such a great job caring for our cat, Fritz! We only adopted Fritz a month or so ago and we wanted to make sure he was well taken care of while we were away for the weekend. Marly was very respectful and communicative. She sent photos and updates, which was very reassuring for us! I also appreciated how dependable she was, we would look forward to booking Marly again in the future and can’t recommend her enough!”


11. Ashley S.
“Ashley was amazing with our hound mix, Winslow. She took Winslow on walks every day in the very cold, rainy weather, threw the ball for him (over and over again) in our yard, and took many, many photos of him. Ashley sent me those photos and responded to all of my (too many) inquiries about Winslow's tummy, etc., etc. I would totally--and highly--recommend Ashley to anyone who has a pet and is going away (or needs someone to walk their pooch).”


12. Samantha O.
“Samantha is a wonderful pet owner, as she has taken care of pets her whole life. I've seen nothing but love from her when she's around animals. She's not only a great person around animals, but people as well! You'll be happy to have her around!”




13. Caitlin A.
“Caitlin is absolutely wonderful! She is loving,compassionate and dependable! She takes wonderful care of her own pets and I would entrust her with mine any day!”


14. Paris K.

“I can't say enough good things about Paris! She has been walking my dog twice a week, and I've been incredibly impressed with her professionalism and care. Paris is sweet, responsible, and dependable—qualities that are so important when it comes to trusting someone with your pet. Not only does she ensure my dog gets the exercise she needs, but she also helps with basic training during their walks. I've noticed a real improvement in my dog's behavior and responsiveness, thanks to Paris's attention and guidance. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she works with, and I feel so lucky to have found her. I highly recommend Paris to anyone looking for a fantastic dog walker!”


15. Kim M.

“Kim did an excellent job of watching my two cats and snake. She came during the set times and did everything I asked. She was even fine with opening the snakes tank in order to maintain the tank’s humidity which I appreciated.”


16. Joanna N.
About: My partner and I LOVE dogs of all kind. We have had our Reggie for 5 years now. Reggie is now 14 years old. We have an unfenced backyard but I will always have the dog on a leash at all times. I will also be bringing the dogs for a walk at least once a day. Dogs are welcome throughout the house. Dogs who stay overnight will be able to sleep on our bed or even on dog beds we have. Your dog will feel completely at home whether it is at my house or yours! I am currently on summer break so I am at home all day everyday. I will be with your dogs all day and will have plenty of time to let your dog out and explore. I will ensure that your dog is getting the necessary care needed whether that is health or safety. I will make sure that your dog is best cared during my visit or the entire time at my house.
