“Louise always kept me updated on what was going on with Bowie. I knew he was always in good hands. Weather was not great and Bowie is reactive to other dogs and some people. Louise looked for ways to distract him and keep their walks enjoyable. Many thumbs up!”


“David is absolutely wonderful! Took excellent care walking and feeding our pitbull. Provided lots of pictures and updates. Even brought in our packages. Thank you so much, David!!”


“Teagan is amazing with Ranger! He is very attentive to what Ranger needs and has a kind heart toward Ranger as well. We were lucky to find a great walker for Ranger!!”


“Sarah is the sweetest! Her personality really shines through when she’s narrating videos while walking Vito. 😂 she’s hilarious! Brings a smile to my face every time. She takes such good care of my furry son, I trust her completely! Highly recommend!”


“Jovian took great care of our two terriers! Even our more shy pup warmed up to her. She had no problems following special instructions and gave our pups great walks! She also gave us a daily report and included pictures.”

About: I’ve been around dogs all my life—I truly like them more than people 😂. I’ve taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes, from tiny to huge! I also have experience with young dogs and seniors. Nothing makes me happier than a dog who likes me—seriously, it’s my goal to make friends with all the dogs! I have experience in giving medications, though I’m not as confident as id like to be when it comes to syringes—though I’m happy to keep trying and leaning! I work remote from home and I create my own schedule, so my days and nights are pretty wide open. I find that taking care of pets helps to break up the monotony of sitting at a laptop with the tv on in the background. Playing, walking, and snuggling with a pet is the perfect cure for boredom, that’s for sure! I can’t bring pets into my home, but while I’m taking care of your pets in your home, I like to make sure I leave it exactly as it was when I arrived. I have a deep respect for other people’s space and will always do my best to not disrupt your comfort and privacy. I’m also very happy to check for mail and bring package in from outside, if that’s something you also need help with.

“Nancy is an outstanding dog walker. Great communication with me to set up the week of dog walking. She dealt w one of my dog’s anxiety really well. She was very flexible with his needs. She is very good with rescues, clearly. She is dependable and on time, which was very important to me. I would recommend her to friends and will continue to use her regularly.”


“Arielle is the best! She is very reliable and proactive in her communication with us. I love all of the pictures and updates she sends me when I’m at work! She goes above and beyond for our puppy and we always come home to a happy dog!”


“Our dog Kuma loves Michael! We are super lucky to have him on our team. Michael is flexible and a great communicator! Kuma is a large, 1 year old golden retriever with quite a bit of puppy energy and some habits we're still trying to work out, and Michael is so patient and kind with him. Highly recommend booking Michael!”


“Margaret is extremely conscientious and dedicated. She did say thorough call to understand my dog's behaviors and needs. Since Carly is a dog-reactive rescue with a traumatic history, and we have been working with a trainer, I am always reluctant to have someone new walking her. It's hard to be sure they will reinforce her training and ensure a calm walk, even if they encounter other dogs. Margaret made sure to understand and use the same equipment and commands and techniques we are using to give Carly the exercise she needed while my partner and I were sick. I would have no qualms having her house-sit and stay with Carly. I know she is trustworthy and genuinely cares about the animals she spends time with. I would highly recommend her for anyone, especially those who are nervous about their dogs with others. Carly is friendly and loves all people, and she has a little separation anxiety and more than a little territoriality around other dogs. And yet Margaret handled her expertly and lovingly, gaining both her trust and mine. She even suggested ways to help training progress with fewer treats and more praise as Carly improves her threshold around other dogs. Margaret not only came through on short notice, but she instantly built a relationship with both us and our dog which means she will be my go-to walker and sitter from now on.”


“Karen was so responsive and arranged to come meet my dog on very short notice. She clearly knows dogs and is very comfortable with them. My dog had a great walk with Karen and I really appreciate her communication!”


About: I'm super passionate about animals and pet care, and I am grateful for every opportunity to hang out with them! I love to spend time grooming & pampering them, as well as playing with and taking them for walks! I'm a new graduate looking to expand my pet care experience and play with animals! I'm available all week, and devote most of my time to animals - from pet sitting to my role as a wildlife care assistant at PAWS! I love to spend hours accompanying and playing with pets, so I will ensure your pet never gets lonely! I'm happy to pick-up and drop-off pets to make things as convenient as possible for my clients.

“My girl LOVES her time with Janet! My pup always runs eagerly to Janet when she sees her and comes home with so much pep in her step. I feel very lucky to have Janet to help care for Trubbs.”
