“Samantha was amazing with our dog and she was comfortable right away during the meet and greet. While we were gone Samantha sent regular updates and photos. We were very comfortable that Momo was in good hands!”


“Chioma was excellent! She took wonderful care of my dog Carl, sent pics & video of him over the weekend & was great with communication throughout. Carl was so bummed when she left, I know he had the best time with her. Thank you so much!”


“Naomi was fantastic and always kept us in the loop on walks and outings to dog parks, as well as on eating and potty issues. She sent pictures. I would highly recommend Naomi! We will use her services again.”


“Anna did a great job meeting our standard poodle’s demands for exercise and attention while we were out of town for 10 days. Her texts assured us that everything was okay at home and that our dog was happy and healthy. Anna took care of everything, including an unexpected power outage, and we were able to have a worry free vacation. We hope to have her back in the future.”


“Grace has stayed with my pitbull Keiki twice and I couldn't be happier with the care she received. Grace followed Keiki's schedule and handled all of her quirks perfectly. I received updates and photos twice a day which really helped my anxiety of leaving my baby home. I would trust Grace with Keiki anytime!”


“Lisa was great. She was communicative, was a thoughtful and respectful house guest, and most importantly my two girls were pampered and loved well! I came home to two relaxed and happy pups! Will definitely use her again when I can!”



“Keely was great with our pups and very accommodating. Keely was easy to communicated with and kept us updated with pictures each day we were gone. Additionally, Keely left our house very tidy when she left. We hope to have Keely stay with our dogs again in the future.”


“Laura takes excellent care of our dog Bo, even with his special needs. She arrives when she says she will and I don’t have a worry when we’re away. I like that she is here most of the time because that’s what Bo is used to. Thank you Laura!❤️ 🐶”


About: I’m convinced that I already love your dog more than you! Our family dog was my best friend growing up, and I have always been happiest when I’ve had a canine companion in my life. I am currently a man without a dog and would love to share my love of animals with your pet! I currently do not have my own animals to care for so my schedule is pretty flexible in being able to care for your pet. During the school year I work full time 7:45- 2:45. I care for animals as if they are my own, making sure to give them the love and attention they need to enrich both of our lives. I will treat your home with respect and care, making sure to discreetly maintain your household while you are away.

“Camille and Jordan were fantastic with our house and animals (elderly dog, cat and rabbit)! They were prompt in responding and making sure they had the information needed to take the best care of our animals. They were on time and communicated with us as needed. Our animals are our babies and they seemed perfectly comfortable and happy with Camille and Jordan so we will definitely be booking again!”


“Amber did a great job taking care of Joe and Riley when I was gone for the weekend. She sent lots of pictures and kept me up to date. I could tell when I got home that they were happy and the house was left exactly as I left it. Will definitely book with Amber again!”


About: I have had at least two pets in my household my entire life so I am very comfortable around them and I love taking care of them! I currently work part time at Ulta Beauty so my schedule does change weekly. However, I am generally open in the mornings and later in the evenings and have on average 2-3 days off a week. I am also enrolled in an online Master’s Degree program that will start in August but I am able to work on that around my work schedule! Safe and enjoyable walks are provided, creating a positive and trusting experience for dogs and you, their owner! Safety is prioritized by using appropriate equipment like secure harnesses and sturdy leashes, remaining aware of surroundings, and avoiding potential dangers such as traffic or unleashed animals. Building trust happens through clear communication and respectful interactions. Comfort and well-being are prioritized on every walk, adapting to your pets individual needs and pace. Environmental responsibility is also a priority, with waste picked up and disposed of properly, contributing to a clean and enjoyable experience for everyone!
