“Melissa was great! She came over in advance to meet the dogs and learn their routines and she did a great job walking them while I was at work. Definitely calling her again :)”


6. Jennifer M.

“Jennifer is so great! I have used her a handful of times now for dog walking. She provides very detailed updates during her walk and always listens if I provide her with different instructions for the day. She also quickly caught on to what our dog likes to do - play fetch versus going for walks so she takes time to play fetch. Definitely recommend booking her!”

9. Victoria J.

“I contacted Victoria without much.notice hoping to get somebody to walk my dog 2 times on a day where I was going to be gone for at least 12 hours. She had never met me or my dogs but took on the task. She was.able.to get my dogs out, hung out with them a bit in my yard, and for their second afternoon session she took them for a wooded hike and to a pet store for treats. She went above and beyond and my dogs were very pleased. Great job V.”

About: I have had a love for animals since I was a young child. At the age of 8, against my parents wishes I snuck in an abandoned cat and it ended up being where my love for animals began. We have had many types of pets since then. Currently we have a 3 year-old German Shepherd whom we rescued from a shelter at 4 months of age. We also have a 1 year old Australian Cattle dog who is super energetic. I love spending time with animals, dogs in particular, because they are so playful, happy and full of unconditional love. I am responsible, caring and will take great care of you pet because I know that they are not only “pets” but are also members of your family. I will care for your pet like I would care for my own pets. I work full-time as a nurse practitioner but just started working some days from home. I figured, why not do something I love while also getting exercise at the same time. Note: the only breed of dog that I will not board in my home are pitbulls. My daughter had a traumatic experience with a pitbull so she is very triggered by that breed. I will gladly watch pitbulls in your home and care for them outside of my home. I think they do get a bad reputation for being an aggressive breed but due to our experience, we unfortunately don’t feel comfortable having them around our children. I am able to mainly available for pet care on the weekends. I am able to accomplish most evening/late evening or very early morning walks. Every other Tuesday I work from home so am able to break up my schedule this day. I care for my dogs in my backyard, which is fenced in. She is able to run around freely because we do have a large yard which allows her to burn off her energy. We also play fetch and she is able to spend a lot of her time running around there. We also go for walks around the neighborhood.


11. Jason G.

“Jason is extremely responsible and flexible, and in two weeks, we’ve come to rely on him for walking our dog!”


12. Sara F.

“Sara has been amazing with my dog. She has now provided services for my dog a few times and has been patient with my dog, who is shy and scared of almost everything. She has also been great with communication. Glad to have matched with her and look forward to booking future walks with her”


13. Janet T.


“Janet is WONDERFUL beyond words. Peanut a bit hesitant at first but Janice calmed her immediately and now they are BEST FRIENDS. Janet is responsive and accommodating and a pleasure to work with!”


14. Annie M.

“Pip loved her walk! Thanks for accommodating the timing!”


15. Jennevy S.
“Jax does a fantastic job with our 3 dogs. They vary in age and breed. She is knowledgeable and experienced. She is very loving with our dogs paying close attention, and most of all patient. She sends photo updates too.”


16. Elizabeth W.
“I can’t recommend Betsy enough! She was absolutely fantastic with our dog while we were on vacation. From the meet-and-greet, her friendly and positive attitude put us at ease. Throughout the week, she provided excellent care, taking Sofia on walks, playing with her, and making sure she felt loved and comfortable. We especially appreciated the pictures she sent – it was so nice to see her happy and having fun! We’ll definitely be using Betsy again in the future. Thank you for everything!””


17. Michael K.
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 12. I've worked at dog day care facilities, dogsat for private clients, as well as taking care of my family's three dogs. I currently have one dog who I rescued 10 years ago. Pets have always been a constant in my life and I want to help others give that special attention to their loved ones. I work from home with a flexible schedule. Which allows me to drop in just about any time to give your pets some attention and love. I have a fully fenced yard that allows for some freedom. I can easily create your pet should that be requested / necessary. I also have one dog of my own to keep your pet company.
