“Haley is the best! She is always on time, reliable, professional and has a sense of humor! Our dog (Kal) practically stampedes through the door with excitement for his walk when she arrives. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker.”
2. Nola B.
“I’m always nervous whenever I leave my fur babies in someone else’s care, but as soon as I met Nola I was immediately at ease. She is easy to communicate with, responds quickly to messages, works with your schedule, and is very reasonably priced. She is also wonderful with my fur babies and you can tell that she has a lot of experience. There aren’t enough words to praise Nola. Thank you Nola for all that you do for me and my fur babies!”

“Hello, Tina Ellis is an animal lover and has great compassion for animals. She has four of her own dogs and they are thriving. I feel very positive she will take excellent care of any and all animals she is given the responsibility of. She leads an active life so I know she will walk with the animals often making sure they are exercised on a regular basis. It is my hope you will consider her for the position.”

About: Responsible young man who will care for your pet as if it was my own. I enjoy being around animals and they seem to like me. Have had a dog and a cat since I was young. Non smoker and do not use alcohol or drugs. I stand out from other pet sitters in the fact that I'm a kind and thoughtful person. I enjoy working with animals and am diligent and trustworthy. I enjoy being with dogs and cats and feel they are not judgmental and easier to get along with then some people. All the animals like to come over to me and get petted and they seem to enjoy that. They just want someone to love them and I would be more then happy to give them attention.

7. Jessica V.
About: From pups to great Danes, turtles to amazon green parrots, fish and more, love them all. Cats are great but only can do drop in visits. I work from home and pets will go out supervised in the yard and walks, weather permitting( down pour rain). Letting pets out IS MY PRIORITY!! I have a fenced in shaded yard perfect for small sunbathing and rolling around in the grass. Great for doing zoomies and playing ball lots of fun!!

12. Clarissa D.
“I cannot recommend Clarissa enough! My dog is extremely picky and usually doesn’t warm up to anyone, but somehow, Clarissa stole her heart. From the very first visit, she showed incredible patience, kindness, and a true understanding of my dog’s needs. What really set Clarissa apart was the level of care and communication she provided. She sent frequent pictures and videos throughout the day, keeping me updated on their walks, playtime, and even the sweet moments of my dog resting comfortably. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing my pup was not only in great hands but genuinely happy and cared for. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family and go above and beyond, Clarissa is the one! I’ve never seen my dog so relaxed and content with a sitter before, she can’t wait to see Clarissa again!”
