Jenna is our go-to with our dog Quincy! He’s got separation anxiety and always seems calm when we come home after he’s had his walk with Jenna!

I recently moved to the area for work, and one of my top priorities was finding a dependable dog walker. I can confidently say that I’ve found the perfect one in Jon. He’s been absolutely wonderful. My dog Rosie tends to be quite anxious around new people, but Jon has been so patient and understanding, allowing her to build trust with him at her own pace. I can’t recommend Jon highly enough!

Cole is a true professional who genuinely cares for dogs and animals of all kinds. From the very beginning, he has been reliable, attentive, and incredibly easy to work with. My dog, Lucky, absolutely loves her walks with him and gets excited every time he arrives, which says a lot about the bond and trust he builds with the pets he cares for. Cole is caring, friendly, patient, and always brings a positive attitude. He treats every dog as if they were his own and takes the time to make sure they are comfortable, safe, and happy. As a pet owner, it gives me real peace of mind knowing Lucky is in such capable and compassionate hands. I truly appreciate the level of professionalism and genuine kindness Cole brings to his work. I would gladly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and caring dog walker to care for their cherished pet.

About: I have had two cats all my life which I have cared for, fed and changed litter for. I also have experience with walking and caring for dogs. I am free anytime from here up until the 16th of August which is when I will be going back to college, but I will be free when winter break comes around. My cats are house cats so it is very easy for me to keep them safe. I shoo them away from anything dangerous or anything they shouldn’t be messing with quickly. As for dogs, I always keep an eye on them and have a tight grip on their leash when walking them so they don’t run off.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 12 years old, I give them all the love and care possible, my family and friends can attest to this, I also work with children so I am very careful. Our home is extremely pet friendly! We love entertaining our furry guests so there will be a lot of playing involved! It is not easy to trust just anyone with your loved one and as such you will be provided constant updates via text, email messages, photos and videos. I work full time but my wife is home always and has plenty of time to offer play time, long walks and ton of cuddles for your fur baby! I have a large yard and plenty of room in the house specially designed to play and take care of your fur baby to make them feel right at home!

I am an avid rule follower, responsive communicator and will prioritize ensuring the safety of each pet.

About: I've walked my local neighborhood dogs since I was 13 years old. This gave me lots of hands, on experience with dog's various sizes and temperaments. I am flexible with clients, and more available on the weekends but don't hesitate to bark on weekdays. I've always had a soft spot for dogs and all animals and treat every dog like family. I am currently a college student at Stevens Institute of Technology, so I work part time. I am able to fit dog walks around my classes, and I am most available on weekends and Friday nights. I care a lot about animals and prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, and medications, if need be. My cat is my best friend I love keeping her company and walking her on her leash. I will treat any pet as if they are my own.
