“David was great with our pup. I was definitely nervous leaving our pup with someone since moving back to the area. David eased that anxiety and took great care of our pup. Thanks so much, David!”
“What can I not say about Tonya? She is amazing! A few of her wonderful qualities include; reliable, flexible, responsible, respectful, loving and punctual. Tonya is a great communicator. She always takes pictures and writes descriptions for each walk. Her descriptions are never the same. My dog loves her and is always excited to see her. You cannot go wrong if you hire Tonya.”
“Kimberly was awesome with Kaya! She was patient and gentle with Kaya and sent us updates and pictures of her during the walk. Kaya came back very content and tired from her walk!”
“She did a great job helping out with some walks while my normal walker was out. My dogs can be a little nervous but she was great with them and they warmed up to her. Would definitely hire her again!”
“Nur comes 3-4 times a week for my dog's walking. She comes on time & I thank her she modify my unsteady schedule sometimes. I want her to stay with my dog as long as possible.”
“Connor is a young gentleman with, in fact, a gentle soul. He’s personable, easy to work with, and was quick to pick up on my dogs’ needs. His energy is calm and reassuring — exactly what my pups respond to. He says they walk well, but I think it has more to do with his presence than anything else. They settle down quickly with him, and it’s clear they trust him. Highly recommend Connor to anyone looking for a natural, attentive dog walker.”
“Leanne is amazing. She’s reliable, kind, and has patience for our high-energy pup. Our dog comes home happy and tired after every walk, and we have total peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a loving home where pets were always part of the family — we’ve had rabbits, guinea pigs, cats, and dogs over the years. Right now, I share my home with a sweet bunny and a friendly dog. I truly understand how important pets are to our lives, and I’ll care for yours like they’re my own. I work from home, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to give your pet the attention and care they need throughout the day. I provide a calm, loving environment with plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles. I follow each pet’s routine closely, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy.
“Carolina was friendly, clearly loves dogs, and followed through with all my requests for the dog walk. She took very good care of our four-legged family member. I will be using her again.”
“Lori is very communicative & my dog is at ease with her. We boarded her for the first time & it seems my dog didn’t seem worried or anxious when we got back. Thank you Lori! I know I don’t have to worry when I book in advance because she always remembers & is timely in her responses.”
“Pia helped walk Tux while I was out of town and did a great job communicating everything that I needed to know about how it was going. I would recommend Pia to anyone looking for someone responsible to take care of your dog!”
About: I have always had pets in my life since I was little, always taking care of family dogs and cats. Friends have relied on me to watch and take care of their pets. I am currently working as a teacher, so I am not available to be with your pups Monday-Friday during typical school hours but am always happy to come home to happy pups and stay at the house over night! I want to care for pets in whatever way and environment they are most comfortable, earning trust from the start. I love going on walks (long or short, whichever the furry friends prefer) and am always up for some play time or snuggles.
About: I grew up with several different dog breeds. I have dog sat for small and medium sized dogs. I will love your pup like my own 💕 I’m a teacher on summer break, which makes my schedule pretty flexible. I would love to work with your schedule to best support your needs! I love to share photos of the dogs with owners as the walk or day goes on. I follow the directions of the dog parent as detail oriented as I can. I also have experience giving medicine to dogs.

Jessica O.Star Sitter
“Jessica is a great and excellent example as to what pet sitters in general should be looking for. She’s caring and understanding of an animals needs and is always willing to go the extra mile. For example I asked Jessica to look after my bunnies (a pet shes never looked after) for the weekend while i was away.She to my surprise did her own extra research on top of mine without me asking. All to make sure “my bunnies were being properly taken care of””
Paige C.
“I hired Paige to watch and walk my two little beloved dogs. She was so sweet when she got to my house. She got down to their level let them smell her hands (tails begin to wag) she talks all cute to them and got them all excited to go for a walk. (At this point I felt like I don't think my dogs are going to like when we go for a walk.) She comes back and they both are just so happy and playful. I couldn't believe it. So I figured FLUKE..my dogs are not traitors! So we went away for a weekend and hired Paige...yeah I was wrong. My dogs loved her. She gave them treats, fed them, walked them 2 or 3 times a day. We got home a little earlier than expected but she showed up anyway and said "Oh no, I promised them we would go for one more walk before dad and mom comes home." At this point I realized that if I ever have to go anywhere, I could just call Paige and see if I can get on her calendar. She was always very accommodating, so very good with my dogs and other dogs in the neighborhood. I would hesitate for a second to hire here again. Thank you Paige!”

Jing Q.
“I wholeheartedly recommend Jing Qin as a pet sitter and dog walker! She has taken care of both my dog and cat on several occasions, and I couldn’t have asked for a more loving, responsible, and attentive caregiver. Jing has a natural connection with animals — my shy cat warmed up to her faster than to most people, and my energetic dog absolutely adores their walks together. What sets Jing apart is her calm, gentle presence and her ability to tune into each animal’s unique needs. Whether it’s making sure a picky cat eats or giving an anxious dog extra reassurance, she always goes the extra mile. She keeps things clean, follows routines exactly, and is great at updating me with photos and messages so I know my pets are happy and safe. Jing is not only amazing with animals, she’s also incredibly respectful, communicative, and dependable — everything you’d want in someone caring for your beloved pets. Any cat or dog would be in excellent hands with her, and any pet parent would have peace of mind.”
