“Dean is great!! Super reliable, communicative and amazing with my dog Dior. I booked Dean superrr last minute this weekend and he responded immediately, kept me updated throughout the walks and I can’t wait to book him again”
“I was taking care of my son’s, high energy, 1 year 5 month old lab, Maverick and was nervous about letting him walk with a stranger. But Thankfully came across Rover and Ari, who was absolutely fantastic! Maverick usually requires a lot of patience, but Ari knew how to handle him. I loved receiving the daily photo updates and walk summaries, and of course Maverick always came home happy, calm, and ready for a nap. Highly recommend, Ari - will definitely seek for Ari in the future.”

For me an animal is just like a person, most of them are like kids if you go out, bring water, snacks and toys for them. If your in the house they want attention and all the love that you can give them. Always have clean clean and fresh water, give them the food on time, play with them and always take care of them.

Take them out at least two times at day and if it’s to cold outside put them the coat and the boots if it is necessary.

Leona has been walking my dog, Max, for several years now, and I cannot recommend her enough! They are incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and punctual. [Dog's Name] absolutely adores them and gets so excited every time they arrive. If you want peace of mind and top-tier care for your pet, hire [Walker's Name]!
I can't say enough good things about Anny, who walks my dog, Pancito. From the very first meeting, it was clear that Annie is an incredibly professional and kind individual. She has a natural ability to connect with animals, and it's evident in how much Pancito adores her. Pancito gets so incredibly excited whenever Annie arrives, it’s like she’s greeting a long-lost friend. The bond they've formed is truly remarkable; watching them interact, it's as if I'm walking my own dog – that’s the level of trust and affection they share. Anny’s dedication and gentle approach make her an absolute star, and I feel so fortunate to have found her to care for Pancito. I will definitely be booking with her again,
Janet is an outstanding dog walker! She bonded immediately with our two English Setters, and they happily anticipate her arrival when it is time for a walk to our nearby park. Janet sends us photos, videos, and updates throughout the walk. She keeps up a brisk pace but is sensitive enough to allow the girls to sniff when they wish, without them sneaking any inappropriate "snacks" that might be lingering on the path. Janet has an upbeat personality, and is always on time yet very flexible. We can’t recommend her highly enough!
Iris was so so amazing, she was super understanding towards my dogs personality since she’s more on the shy side, she was super sweet and made sure I was aware of everything that was going on. I felt so at ease having her come over to my place! Would definitely book her again and recommend her to everyone! ❤️
