1. Pamela M.

“I had a great experience with Pamela. She's a dog whisperer, always on time, and loves being around dogs.”


2. Grey W.
“Grey watched our cats and one dog as we were considering moving to Maine. Not only did he do an outstanding job, giving us photos of our loved ones and checking to make sure all was well, but also gave us the knowledge that our babies were in good hands. The place was spotless when we got back and our little loved ones seemed energized and happy. I couldn't put a higher recommendation on Grey's cat/dog sitting. You could tell he really loved the animals and gave each an individual approach. Thank you Grey!”


3. Kathleen B.
“Kathleen did an awesome job watching my pup coco! She gave her all sorts of love and attention. She would also send pics of coco throughout her stay which I really liked. It’s always good to know your furry friend is being taken care of while you’re gone. Will definitely be using her again and would Highly recommend!”


4. Kary M.

“Georgia liked Kary on first time meeting her”


5. Frankie M.
“AJ has taken care of my dog since he was a puppy (7 years ago!) and I trust them 100%. They are in-tune with dogs needs and wants. They have also taken care of my cats when I've been out of town. You won't regret trusting your pets with AJ - they will make sure your pet is loved and cared for.”


6. Stacey V.
“Stacey is a great fur baby parent and loves all animals. She is very loving and caring to animals of all types. You normally always see her with a dog going to the park or trials. She is a responsible and caring person and I’m sure she will be great with your pets.”


7. Elizabeth C.
“Elizabeth is the reason that I welcomed dogs into my home. When I met her she had 3 dogs and a cat. She loved them and they loved her. Seeing that love influenced me to get my first dog 16 years ago. Elizabeth loved him, just as she loved her own. She is attentive to all pets. She greets them with pets and hugs, loves to take them on walks, long or short. She pays attention to how they are feeling and eating and makes sure the water bowl is always full. I've never seen an animal that she didn't love and they always love her in return. This passion has been passed down to her from her mother, who was a volunteer for a local dog shelter throughout her life. I highly suggest Elizabeth as your first pick when it comes to the care of your animals. She's the BEST!”




8. Louise E.

“Raining. Walk went well. Dog pulls constantly. Must find Halty collar. Louise did everything she needed to do. Very good experience. Recommend completely but get dogwalker to stay for more than 30 minutes.”


9. Parks F.
“Parks Felton is the greatest cat dad that I have ever met. He loves and cares for Taro like a human child. Parks will treat any pet like they are his own. Any pet owner that chooses Parks will never have to worry about whether or not their pet has been fed, or if they’ve received an adequate level of attention.”


10. Brinkley F.
About: I have been dog training for the past 3 years slowly growing my business. I love taking care of animals as it is my passion! I work a few hours during the week but typically my schedule stays pretty open, most of the time I can fit in your needs! I do not have a fenced in yard but I have a nice neighborhood where I can take your dog for plenty of walks and exercise.




11. Alan S.

“Alan was great with the pups! He saved me in a pinch and took such great care of my babies! They loved him from the second they met him! Definitely an amazing person to have in charge of your puppies!”


12. Madison F.
“Madison is responsible, flexible, and a all around animal lover. She did great with all my pets and even sent picture updates. She is always someone you can depend on and I'd 100% recommend her to anyone!”


13. Ann W.

“I absolutely love Ann and feel so lucky to have found her! Ann has watched our cats a few times now and has done a fantastic job. They are both older and require medication once a day. When we’re away she sends updates to ease our minds. It allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation. Our favorite part about Ann is her caring approach for our pets, she’s very gentle and loving. We know our animals are in good hands with her!”


14. Leandra C.
“I was lucky to find Leandra when I was new to my neighbourhood. She has been helpful to me with pet care and did an excellent job and I would recommend her to anyone seeking a reliable care giver.”


15. Kelsey A.

“Kelsey is wonderful. Mickey and I enjoyed her. Unfortunately, my stay is cut short. I must return to Florida due to family health issue. Please make this morning's walk the last. Thank you. I will look into using your service in Florida.”


16. Hunter F.
“Hunter is an amazing pet caregiver who goes above and beyond our requirements. Not only does she feed our cat, but she plays with him and gives him adequate cuddle time. She sends pictures and updates so that we always know our fur babies are happy and well cared for. She is so intuitive in how she connects with each of our animals - a cat and dog with two very different personalities. We highly recommend!”


17. Gabrielle I.
“Gabrielle is a responsible caring person especially when it comes to pets. Pets make her the happiest in the world and she will do anything for pets. She plans on opening a Doggy Day Care one day that’s how much she loves pets. She takes care of my dog when I need her too. My dog loves Gabrielle so much because of how caring she is.”


18. Caroline T.
“Caroline is like a fairy dog-mother to our pups! They are so excited to see her, which makes me feel so at ease knowing how well they’re cared for. We have a challenging dynamic with our dogs that requires a unique schedule and handling protocol. Caroline handles it all and easily adjusts as needed.”


19. Jennie R.
About: I’ve had pets my whole life and done pet sitting since I was about 12. My daughter and I love taking care of all kinds of animals. We would love a chance to take care of yours. I’m home most days. When I do work outside of the home, I may be gone 4 to 6 hours. I am able to bring your pet with me, or let them stay in the cage at home. I have a very friendly Aussie doodle who loves to play with other dogs. I do have a small fenced in area and a large wooded area and walking trails.


20. Jessica R.

“Jessica was great with our 2 dogs! Our 16 year old was recently diagnosed with cancer and had been having several issues and I was worried about leaving her while traveling for work. Jessica has great empathy for senior dogs and when she met Luci I knew she would be in good hands. And she spent time with our Coco Bean and gave her the walk and attention she needed. Thank you, Jessica!”
