Xiaotong did spectacularly! She followed all of my instructions perfectly, and I received daily updates that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Getting back into our routine was a piece of cake thanks to her care. 10/10 — I’ll definitely recommend her and will choose her again! My girls absolutely loved her! 💗🐶

Andrhu is such a wonderful walker for our family, our girls really see him as a friend and playmate. He is so caring and really keeps our girls happiness and safety in the forefront if each visit. We feel such comfort knowing they are safe with him and that they have a great time playing, exploring and getting the daily stimulation we can't always provide when we are working

About: Hi! My name is Monae, and caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I have hands-on experience working with dogs through my volunteer work at the Humane Society and Resilient Sanctuary, where I help with walking dogs, providing enrichment and socialization, cleaning kennels, preparing food and water, and assisting with daily care. I am comfortable around dogs of different sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I am currently pursuing a degree in psychology, and I have a strong interest in animal behavior and dog training. This has helped me develop patience, observation skills, and an understanding of how to build trust with both pets and their owners. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or companionship while you’re away, I will treat them with the same care, attention, and respect that I would want for my own pet. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when someone else is caring for your furry family member, and I am committed to providing reliable care and clear communication every step of the way. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 Why book with me? * Volunteer experience with dogs at the Humane Society and Resilient Sanctuary * Experience with daily animal care, enrichment, and socialization * Reliable and responsive communication * Comfortable with dogs of various breeds and sizes * Passionate about animal behavior and dog training * Dedicated to making pets feel safe, happy, and loved I work full-time with TSA, so I currently offer pet care on Fridays and Saturdays. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, and I look forward to dedicating my days off to caring for pets. Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or companionship, I will make sure your dog receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you're away. I live in an apartment, but I make sure dogs receive plenty of walks, exercise, potty breaks, and attention. I always follow the owner's instructions and take the time to learn each dog's routine and needs. I currently volunteer with the Humane Society and Resilient Hearts Animal Sanctuary, where I work with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My goal is to provide a safe, positive, and stress-free experience for every dog in my care. I am also pursuing a degree in psychology and will be starting the Karen Pryor Dog Trainer Foundations course. My long-term goal is to become a service dog trainer, so I'm passionate about continuing to learn and build experience working with dogs.

We just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the incredible care and attention you’ve consistently given to our dog. Your communication has always been clear and in a timely manner! You're super friendly, not to mention your dependability has been so comforting for us. We appreciate you always letting us know whether or not you're going to be late in a timely manner so we never have to worry if you're coming or not. Our pup can be quite timid at times, but your gentle approach and calm presence have truly helped him feel safe and happy. It’s clear he really enjoys his time with you, and we’re so grateful for the trust and bond you’ve built with him. Thank you for being such a reliable and compassionate part of his routine. We appreciate you more than words can say!

About: Working as a vet assistant, groomer, trainer and sport and show handler I have built a unique set of skills that can provide your dog with an experience like no other! I am a stay at home mom with two kids in school. My day consists of staying at home so your pup will never be alone. I have a 6 foot fully fenced yard, plus a separate dog run area where I have cameras inside and out. Safety is my number one priority. Your dog will have eyes on them 24/7. Since safety is something I take very seriously these are some of the things I do to ensure your dog feels comfortable at all times. All dogs are fed separately, this includes chews and treats. Dogs are on leash if not in the fully fenced backyard. All dogs have their own drinking water to prevent any spread of illness. Food and water bowls are washed daily. The yard is chemical free, I do not use weed killer or insect sprays on the property. Pictures and updates daily to insure peace of mind while you’re away. Is your dog shy, submissive or reactive with other dogs. No problem, I have lots of areas in the house and yard where they don’t have to be apart of the group of other dogs. I have one cat who is an indoor outdoor kitty. She has grown up with multiple dogs in the house. She has been around many dogs who don’t like cats, you’ll normally see her up in the trees or on the roof. I do have two kids in the house who have grown up with dogs. Along with safety respect is also something I value. My children respect the dog’s space. If your dog doesn’t like children or is nervous around them that is no problem. I strive to make sure my children are coexisting and having little interaction with our dogs who are not child friendly. All interactions with your dog are supervised, there will not be any interactions out of sight with the children. We take dogs with all kinds of personality. While your dog is here their comfort and happiness is my priority. It’s very easy to keep your dog and the kids separated.

Minh/Mary is beyond awesome. She noticed that my idiot (lovingly) dog got into the trash and she picked it up. She also keeps me updated on my cat when they see each other. I’d never expect a dog walker to go above and beyond like this, but that’s what she does!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 8yrs old. Friends, family and neighbors have relied on me to care for their beloved pets. I’ am currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for boarding on weekends after 2pm, and weekdays after 430pm I have a fence yard, crates and gates at home, we can also use your own crates if that works with you. Thank a bunch

We needed a dog walker as my husband was recovering from foot surgery and I was leaving town for a few days. Xiaotong did a fantastic job with our pups. She sent lots of photos of their walks. They were thrilled to go with her each day. We will certainly call on her again.
