“Dmitra is the best!!! She walks our goldendoodle Griffin twice a week and is really amazing with him! Because of our schedules I usually have to tell her only a day or two in advance which days we need her help each week and she’s always really flexible and great about it! We also have cats that like to try to sneak out of the house, and she’s great about keeping an eye on them to make sure they stay in while she takes Griffin out for his walks. So glad we found her!!!”
“Amazing walker! Meghan took multiple pics and left comments about each walk, which made us feel comfortable and confident our boy was taken care of. Flexible with times and very kind. Will be working with Meghan from now on and would highly recommend.”
“Zeus just loves his walks with Chelsea. He is soo excited when she comes to take him for his walk. When I need a dog walker I will contact Chelsea. Many thanks”
“Brittani was great to work with, super quick to respond and was able to help with such short notice. Mosa seemed to love her, so we’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Thanks so much to Lara for filling in when my dog walker was out of town. It was so appreciated and I will certainly be contacting her again in the future for fill ins!”
About: I've lived with animals pretty much my entire life. I've had two dogs, two rats, a mouse, a ferret, and seven cats total. I often pet sit my friends and families dogs and cats and even guinea pigs and geckos. So while I don't have any trained professional experience in pet care, I do have an abundance of personal experience. I absolutely adore animals so I will do my best to treat yours with as much care as I have. This is my full time job so I will be available for all of my listed services every day of the week from 8 am - 10 pm preferably in day light hours. I am very flexible with my hours so I can prioritize your schedule. While walking your pet I will remain vigilant to ensure its safety. I will follow any rules/instructions given to me such as how/if to interact with other people/animals.
“Richard was great! He was very accommodating and I felt very safe and comfortable leaving my Enzo in his care. He was thoughtful and even brought in my packages for me. Will definitely use him again!”
About: I’ve walked dogs for friends and family and owned many animals that I cherish. I can walk you dogs, play with them, and cleanup any messes! I can work anytime of the day and can do nights as I have a flexible schedule can work short or long days and weekends! I can keep the home clean and do any tasks needed such as giving treats/food, clean up messes made and do any household tasks provided.
“Kathleen did a wonderful job. I felt so much at ease traveling for a full week knowing that she was giving my dog plenty of exercise and attention. My dog looked happy in the pictures Kathleen sent from every walk.”
About: I limit the number of pets so they get personalized love and attention. From shy senior cats to high-energy puppies, I have had and worked with all ages and needs. I provide frequent updates catered to the owner’s request. I like to build trust through consistence and long-term relationships so your pet sees a familiar face and is happy. I am retiring from teaching and will have a part time work-from-home job and will have plenty of time for love and cuddles with your pets. I walk several times a day so your dog (or walking cat), gets plenty of exercise. I have a fenced in covered patio so they get plenty of fresh air! Again, I walk several times a day, have a park at the end of my road, I have a fenced in patio and there is a dog park within walking distance of my home. If they ride well in a car, I will take them to a big park for walks and dog park socialization. I have had dogs since I was born and cats all of my adult life. I have watched many animals for friends, families, neighbors, etc. I have had rabbits, turtles, fish, iguanas as well. I have a special place in my heart for animals.
“Natalie made me feel like I could easily leave town & enjoy myself knowing Ozzy was being well cared for! Not only does she have a great vibe that I picked up on, but Ozzy did as well. She walked him, played with him, & fed him while I was away. I would 100% recommend her services!”
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 9 years old, our house was always the go-to sitters for the neighborhood. I love and care for all animals as if they were my own. From walks to feeding to bath time, I have experience in all areas of pet care. I am currently a full time student in college although I do spend weekends at home. I have no job at the moment and wanted to explore my passion for animals this summer and plan to continue throughout the school year. I have two dogs of my own and two cats at my house so I have experience in different types of pets. We have raised our dogs since pups and trained them so I have experience in all age ranges. I am willing and able to follow the instructions given by the pet parent to care for their pet as best I can.
About: I have taken care of cats for years for family, friends, and neighbors, and loved them so much I had to get my own! I raised my own 2 cats from kittens to adulthood. Both of my kitties require daily medication, so I am experienced with administering pills, liquid, and topical medication. I love every single cat from the grumpiest babies to the cuddliest! :) I have helped care for my family's small and medium sized dogs, and I love to take walks to get out your pup's energy! I am available to dog sit in your home, but am not able to board as I have two shy, quiet kitties at home. I’m available both weekdays and weekends for care. My schedule varies week to week, but I am always available for drop in visits and walks at flexible times! I am a very loving, considerate, and clean pet sitter. I love to schedule a meet and greet prior to pet sitting so I can begin to build a trusting bond with your pets. I value keeping clients’ homes in immaculate condition and caring for pets like they are my own. I will ensure that your home looks how you left it or better when you return.
About: I have had a variety of different pets throughout my life. Cats and dogs along with several species of frog and lizards. I have also had a snake and helped take care of a tarantula tho I’m not super comfortable with those. I work a crazy schedule but I only work every other week so I hope to enjoy some pet time on my off days or maybe some check ins or dog walks after or before I start my shifts I would come to your home. I live in a small apartment with my cat who has not had much exposure to other animals. So your home would be best.
About: I adore all types of dogs, big or small. Years of experience have taught me that the most important thing is respecting their space and boundaries while making sure they have everything they need. I also believe that it is incredibly important they have an outlet for their energy, so I am willing to play with them for as long as it takes - sometimes fetch has gone on for over an hour. Again, safety is of the utmost importance and I have experience taking care of all sorts of dogs with different temperaments, including some escape artists, who were all safe and sound when their families returned. I'm currently working part-time so I have some incredible flexibility when it comes to taking care of your pups! I'm willing and able to wake up early or stay up late as needed and I can spend plenty of time making sure your pets get all the love and affection they deserve. Your pet's safety is my top priority and while I have experience caring for a variety of animals, including some with serious medical conditions, I believe that their families have the best understanding of what they need. As such, I am happy to work with you to determine the best means of caring for your pet, whether that includes particular leash attachments, the use of indoor gates, external gates. I also have a fenced in backyard for any pets that might end up staying the night.

Cindy M.
“Cindy walks my puppy several times a week and she is fantastic! She is always so kind and gentle with her, and is helping her learn how to walk like the goodest girl. I have a couple rules - like using a gentle leader and staying away from the busy four lane road near us - and Cindy has always been respectful of them, which gives me so much peace of mind while they are out. I know I can trust Cindy to give her a safe, fun, and (hopefully!) tiring time. And judging by how happy my puppy always is to see her, I know she agrees!”

Collin P.
“Collin watched my 2 cats for a week while I was on vacation and couldn’t have done a better job. He’s kind, considerate, and cares immensely about animals! One of my cats has diabetes and requires nightly medication and he was able to give my cat the pill with no issues. Collin not only fed the cats twice a day, but also played with them and even cleaned the litter box. He’s truly a great pet sitter and even better person, and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough for any of your pet needs!”
