5. Felix V.
“Felix was a wonderful dog walker and support for our housesitter while we were away for 9 days. Our dog took to him right and away, and if you said “Felix,” our dog would race to the gate wagging her tail :). Felix was prompt and responsive on texts…we are so appreciative to have found him!”
6. Veronica F.
“Veronica is very sweet with Kennedy. She’s responsive and keeps good communication. Really happy we found her”
7. Angie C.
“Angie has been walking our dog every week for a couple months now. Our dog loves her and she always leaves detailed notes/photos of their time together! I highly recommend Angie!”
8. Danielle S.
“Danielle gave me so much peace of mind by watching my cat during my 2-week honeymoon. My cat has a very fussy attitude and can sometimes set her boundaries with swats and hisses but when I saw Danielle interact with her I knew she'd be okay. Danielle is also a cat owner and has experienced first hand sass from cats and knew how to not be intimidated while also respecting the cat's boundaries. When we got home I found she had played with toys and even involved an old forgotten favorite: the laser. Next time I leave home I will feel great knowing my baby is in great hands with Danielle.”
9. Caroline D.
“Caroline has been walking my dog for about a week. She’s a great communicator, reasonably priced, and extremely punctual, rain or shine. Couldn’t be happier!”
10. Kate S.
“Kate stayed at my house for 3 nights with my two chocolate Labs. She played ball with them and walked them all the days she was here. I really liked her right off when we introduced her to my dogs ..and I felt confident that they liked her as well . We came home to a spotless house, she even washed our sheets. So very happy I found her, great sitter and such a kind and thoughtful person to take care of my boys I would highly recommend her to anyone”
11. Kristi L.
“Kristi is so sweet and energetic and truly a dog lover! My dog had an accident in the house and she diligently cleaned up the mess which she totally did NOT need to do! She was more concerned about the well being of my pup! She is always my first pick!”
12. Eloise L.
“Eloise has taken care of my anxious, reactive dog multiple times. She understands how to help her navigate potentially challenging situations and helps her to feel comfortable and confident. Eloise is great with dogs on the trail or hanging out on the couch. Eloise clearly loves dogs and the feeling is mutual! I cannot recommend her highly enough.”
13. Andrielle J.
“Andrielle is great! She’s dependable and reliable, comes on time for Duke’s walks and always walks him at least 30 minutes, about a mile each day (or more!). I’m so glad I found her for Duke, I know he’s well taken care of and well exercised while I’m at work. And she takes the cutest pictures of him :) Thanks Andrielle!”
14. Megan H.
“Megan is an ideal pet sitter. She is responsible, trustworthy and great with kitties. I have had her stay at my home multiple times, for up to a week, to take care of three cats at a time. It is such a relief knowing I can travel and my animals will be well-tended and safe. In addition, she graciously watered plants and brought in the mail. I highly recommend Megan. She is a godsend. Linda”
15. lucy t.
“Lucy is a delightful person and took very good care of our two large dogs. She seems to love our dogs as much as we do. They love her as well, and greet her like family when she comes to the door, which isn't typical for our rather nervous lab. She followed our care directions well and spent a lot of time at the house with the dogs while we were gone. We really appreciate the time and care she took with our beloved pets.”
16. Brady B.
“Brady was amazing and so accommodating!”
17. Ulunma G.
“Ulunma did a wonderful job working with our very nervous pup with separation anxiety. She had great advice for us and was so patient and loving with our Marzi.”
18. Janelle G.
About: I am a veterinary technician and experience pet sitter and dog walker. I work with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I can administer medications, do subcutaneous fluids, and give injectable medications if needed. I can provide special care for senior or sick pets, fun play time, and cuddles for your little lovebugs, in addition to helping with overall pet-related tasks like litter boxes, feeding, etc. I am currently working a full time job during most weekdays, but I have availability to help Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays to help with pet-related tasks and spend time with your furry friends! I care for your pets by coming to your home and helping with whatever tasks are needed from taking your dogs on walks, house sitting, or just checking in.
19. Audrey G.
“Audrey is awesome. She is reliable, friendly and loves dogs. My pup enjoys her walks. It is a huge relief to be able to depend on Audrey and not worry about my dog. I know she is in good hands. Thank you for being there for us, Audrey!”
20. Tania M.
“Tania came over yesterday to walk Ernie and Zoe, as well as to become reacquainted with their feeding, walking and medication instructions in preparation for house/pet sitting next week. She was incredibly warm and friendly and very interested in making sure that Zoe and Ernie would be as happy and relaxed as possible under her care! She took Ernie on a walk since Zoe was at the groomers when she arrived. He was very happy to go out with her and when Zoe returned she immediately ran over to Tania to greet her! We feel very confident that Zoe and Ernie will have a great experience with Tania next week! Our dogs seem to love her already! 🐾😀”
