1. Colleen J.
“Colleen was great with our Dino who has severe separation anxiety. She knew exactly how to manage him and knew to take him for a walk just after we departed to distract him from our leaving. He remained calm and was not anxious when we returned. We will be reaching out to Colleen frequently - she's a gem!”

“Danie is a wonderful, trustworthy dog owner who cares deeply for animals. She has watched our pets several times in the past for extended periods of time, and I have always felt comforted knowing they are in fantastic hands while under her care, even with complicated feeding and medication regimes. I have no doubt Danie would be a superior dog walker and caregiver and wholeheartedly recommend her to any pet owner!”

About: I have cared for dogs since I was 7 years old, caring for my childhood dog, a Lab Boxer named Bailey. Now I have my own dog named Grizzly and a cat named Salem and they are family to me. Caring for dogs brings me so much happiness and I hope to make your pets just as happy! I am currently taking online college courses and working on my degree in social work, which means I am very flexible with scheduling and can work on my assignments remotely! I have plenty of free time to tend to your pet's needs like walking, feeding, plenty of playing, and always have my phone available to send updates whenever needed!
13. John G.
“We asked John to sit with Clancy again because he did such a good job last time. He takes such good care of Clancy, who is older and a bit high maintenance 😄”
14. Stanford A.
“Stanford has been my dog walker & house sitter for many years. He is always prompt for appointments and very kind and loving to my pets. When he watches the dogs / our house when I travel, I am always pleased to come home to having the house just as clean as I left it and my dogs are happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend Stanford to anyone looking for a dog walker or housesitter.”
15. Paris S.
About: I've have two dogs of my own, one is a blue heeler/ rottweiler named Tak and the other is a Vizla whos name is Haruko. Which means sunlight child in Japanese. He has the more golden glowing eyes! I also have been around dogs most of my life, my partners mom got us into volunteering at The Bully Project and we go and walk the dogs just because.My partners mom use to work there too. I also grew up with close to around 20-30 cats at once when I was a little girl, I was always so use to being surrounded by them in my yard and hanging out with them as much as I possibly could. Ive always been real sensitive to animals and their feelings, it's literally a sixth sense. I was currently managing and running my own professional wedding photography business but have slowed down drastically to focus on the little things. Im interested in dog/cat sitting and getting into learning how to grow a garden. Im wanting to take a huge break from social media and work more in the physical world. I also have two dogs of my own so its always been in my routine to care my my pets and take care of them. I have a huge open availability this whole year. I don't recommend having them stay at my own home just because of how high energy my Vizsla is. I do however recommend I come to your home to watch them. I promise to make sure your pets are comfortable with me there, make sure they go outside as frequently as needed to go to the bathroom, take medication, have cuddles, and watch for all the little things. Even keep the active on commands/tricks if they use any, that way they are consistently engaged. Im always outside the entire time with my dogs even though we have a fenced in yard because I want to make sure they don't dig under the fence and escape and that they are truly looked after in the best possible way.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes. I’ve helped special needs pets to young pups with the greatest of care. Patience and attention is required while you’re away from home and I’ll be sure to keep your pets cool, calm and collected. No worries! I’m currently working from home that allows me to work from ANY home including yours! It allows me to stay overnight at your home should you require that service in order to keep your pets safe. I’ll be sure to take as many breaks needed to focus on your pets in order to entertain them and comply with their needs while you’re away from home. I’ve had experience with maintaining the safety and security of animals. Keeping them safe by crating your pets or securing the fence at your home is my top priority while you’re away from home. I’ll be sure to not alone secure your animals but your home as well.
19. Leona C.
About: I have had pets literally my entire life. Dogs, cats, horses, and other small animals. I am patient, kind, loving, and know how to bond quickly with them. I truly enjoy the company of dogs especially and they always sense that and enjoy being with me as well. I have significant flexibility in my schedule. I can easily make the loving care of your pet my priority. I focus on Thursdays through Sunday/Monday for those quick weekend trips. I live in a small, senior park with lots of grass, a new, fenced dog park, and paved roads just in case your well-loved dog(s) may have grass or sand sensitivity. I have lots of time to devote to your dog. I can walk them, take them on golf cart rides, or give them time to play in the dog park.
