About: Hi there! I recently finished grad school and I'm using this transition time for doing things that I love— like spending time with dogs. I have two years of paid experience as a dog walker and in-home pet sitter, plus a lifetime of hands-on experience with my own family's medium and large breed dogs (GSD). I'm reliable, patient, and comfortable with dogs who have a lot of energy or need a confident, steady presence. Whether your pup needs a midday walk or some extra attention, I'd love to help. Flexible availability and happy to meet beforehand so you and your dog feel comfortable! Given I am between grad school and starting my career, I have a flexible schedule and considerable availability. I'm available weekdays and weekends, so I can offer consistent, reliable care whether it's a one-time walk or an ongoing arrangement. When I'm in a client's home, I treat it with the same respect and attention I'd want for my own space. I follow the owner's routine and instructions closely — feeding times, walk schedules, medication, and any specific habits or needs your pet has. I make sure doors and gates are secure, keep an eye out for anything that could be a hazard, and always double-check locks when coming and going. For the pets themselves, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible: regular walks, playtime, fresh water, and plenty of affection so they don't feel anxious or lonely while their owners are away. I am happy to send an update with some pictures when I’m with your pet! Additionally, while on walks I typically avoid dog parks and other interactions with dogs unless this is requested by the owner.
“Talia is so prompt, responsive, and obviously loves dogs. Togo’s tail was wagging as soon as he saw her. Talia managed to squeeze us in on a sick day for me, which I really appreciate. Now Togo is worn out and ready for his afternoon nap. Thanks so much, Talia!”
“Cody was wonderful with our elderly dog, Amelia. So kind and thoughtful, ready to research our particular issues. I highly recommend her, and I will be sure to remember her if I need help in the future. Thank you Cody!! Lisa A.”
About: I enjoy exercise-focused walks. I have two large dogs and I believe a tired dog, is a happy dog. Each walk is tailored to meet your dog's energy level and exercise needs. Whether it's a leisurely stroll through the neighborhood or a brisk trail/beach walk, I ensure that your dog gets the physical activity (and love) required to maintain their health and happiness. I work remotely from home or cafes and have a flexible schedule throughout the week. I accept same day bookings and I'm happy to help in a pinch. Walking: One of my dogs is a rescue that I trained from having reactive behavior to an incredible family member. I believe in maintaining clear boundaries and reinforcing positive behavior during our walks. Drop-ins: I have the upmost respect for your space and will make sure your dog is mud-free at drop off. I will happily follow your house rules and specifications.
“Courtney was wonderful! She was prompt and communicative. She was very considerate of my requests including Blue's hurt toe- so she took Blue on a shorter gentle walk and then gave her some fun time in the yard. I will definitely reach out to Courtney again!”
About: Volunteered at a humane society for a few years in high school and owned too many pets my whole life. Ive done dogs, cats, bunnies, and they lived a long time and were very happy and healthy. I use the awful baby voice on every pet and can't help it. I am working as an assistant manager at Buffalo Wild Wings after a job lay off, I am in the design field! My hours can range, sometimes I do have to close at 1am but if 2 visits a day were needed, I would be honest about the time I would be able to care for your pet. I take what the pet parent says very seriously, does not matter how I care for my own babies it's how you care for yours. I am very open to being very communicative or just a few check ins if wanted!
“I didn’t get any info about Macgyvers walk, so not sure how it went. Macgyvers walk seemed to be shorter than 1 hour that I booked, but Phoebe was very nice at our meet and greet and Macgyver seemed to like her at that visitvalso.”
About: Dogs have always been my favorite animal. I grew up with family dogs my whole life. My dog, Ellie, is an amazing 13 year old lab-mix that we have had since she was 8 weeks old. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and ages. I am a stay at home mom with a lot of flexibility in my schedule. We are an active family that spend a lot of time outside and always have Ellie with us. I treat pets as another member of the family and ensure they are well cared for. I would love to help with all of your furry friends needs! I am currently a stay at home mom with lots of flexibility in my schedule. I would have the ability to care for your dog multiple times in a day if needed. I am happy to provide any care that your dog needs. I am unable to take dogs in to my home at this time but happy to pick your dog up for walks and adventures or care for them in your house.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for several years, including my own dog, Million. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to each dog’s needs. I live in a quiet home with no children, no smoking, and a calm environment that helps dogs feel safe and relaxed. I follow feeding routines closely, enjoy walking and playing with dogs, and can provide frequent updates, photos, and videos. Your dog will be treated like family while staying with me. I work from home, so I am at home most of the day and able to give dogs plenty of attention. Because my schedule is flexible, I can take them out for walks, outdoor breaks, and playtime whenever they need. I’m available on weekdays and weekends, and your dog will never be left alone for long periods. I live in a clean and quiet house with no children, no smoking, and multiple extra rooms where visiting dogs can rest comfortably. We also have an open yard where dogs can safely explore under supervision. My dog Million is friendly and fully trained, and I introduce dogs slowly to ensure everyone feels safe. I provide free toys and treats, follow your dog’s routine closely, and send frequent photo and video updates so you always know how your pup is doing.
About: I love all animals and have been a dog lover since birth! I have cared for dogs & cats for 5 years now and received an Associates Degree for Animal Care & Management in 2022. I have fed, bathed, supervised, administered medication, etc. to all ages and sizes of dogs and cats at my workplace. I have 4-5 days available weekly to care for your fur babies! I am willing to do walks, drop ins and occasional boarding at your home. I am unable to host pets in my own home with my own pup but would be happy to do so at yours. I am trustworthy, reliable, responsible and have a special place in my heart for all animals!

Best Dog Care Ever! I can't recommend Michael highly enough. He genuinely cares for my dog, and my dog clearly adores him. My pup can be leash-shy at times, and the sweet, patient way Michael talks to him makes all the difference. He leaves detailed notes after every walk, so I always know how things went. His communication is excellent, he's reliable, and he's consistently professional. I feel completely at ease leaving my dog with him. I feel very lucky to have found Michael! Two paws up from my dog! Very Highly recommend!
Talia is so prompt, responsive, and obviously loves dogs. Togo’s tail was wagging as soon as he saw her. Talia managed to squeeze us in on a sick day for me, which I really appreciate. Now Togo is worn out and ready for his afternoon nap. Thanks so much, Talia!
Andrea saved us when I had an unexpected medical issue and needed walking the next day. She responded quickly, asked all the important questions about our dog and his needs, and gave Tanner a great walk! Andrea clearly has a great understanding of dogs, and we're very appreciative of her help!

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
