“Angela has been a lifesaver. She was quick to respond when we needed a last minute, recurring walker and worked around our hectic schedule for a meet and greet. Our two labs absolutely love her and look forward to their morning walks. She’s communicative and considerate and I also look forward to seeing her in the mornings as she has a great personality! She’s a pleasure to work with and we are lucky to have found her. Highly recommend!”



“I’ve been using Alessandra and Jennifer for regular dog walking since I adopted my dog Timber. I am so pleased and impressed with how great a job they do! Jennifer is here every day during the week and is very reliable, trustworthy, knowledgeable and great with my dog Timber. She really goes above and beyond to make sure he is cared for and I’m so appreciative of all that she does. I would not be able to have a dog without a dependable dog walker so it’s really important that I have someone committed to his comfort and care. Jennifer really has exceeded all my expectations in this respect. I would highly recommend them for anyone who needs a great dog walker!”


“Jamie clearly takes his responsibilities seriously and takes the utmost care of our dog. As first time dog owners, we were nervous to leave our pup in someone else’s care, and how our pup would react to someone else being in the home. Those nerves quickly vanished, and we as well as our puppy enjoy having Jamie come over to walk him and care for him. He is very professional and very caring toward our dog, which is all we could ask for!”


About: I’ve cared for low, medium, and high energy dogs, small, medium, and large breeds, friendly and reactive. I’ve dealt with food allergies, leash-pulling, SQUIRRELS! and anxious dogs. My 4.5 year old just passed in July 2025 due to cancer. He had food allergies, was reactive to other dogs, and was extremely smart and athletic. He was also very vocal and obsessed with toys. He was trained in the basics, running with me, basic scent work, counter conditioning for his emotional outbursts, and random tricks. He was very selective about who he liked and suspicious of strangers. I had a lab as a kid who loved absolutely everyone but would steal your food if you weren’t paying attention. I’ve had experience with dogs of many personalities and needs. I will treat your baby like my own. I can work with dogs of any age. I am available on most weekends during the school year, and any time during winter, spring, and summer breaks. Weekend walks, drip-ins, house-sitting, and boarding are all easiest for me. Weekdays are tough because my regular job is a teacher. Walks: properly fitting harness and leash, treats, following the rules of the road/crosswalks/etc. Client’s home: follow your instructions for dog care; always make sure dog is happy, fed, watered, crated or otherwise secure in the home etc. as asked. Doors will be locked when I leave and your home will look as clean as it was when I arrived when I leave.

About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from energetic puppies to laid-back seniors. In fact, I raised a boxer from puppy to senior/end of life and currently I have two 8 year old kitties. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I love making cats and dogs feel happy, safe, and loved. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on each pet’s unique needs and routine. I have a flexible schedule and work from home; I am able to work with your schedule and keep your pet on schedule to ensure stability and continuity of care. I’m not able to care for pets in my own home but I’m happy to spend time with your pets in a space they’re comfortable and provide them with the same care and love I give my own pets.

About: Hi there! I grew up on a ranch surrounded by all kinds of animals, so caring for pets has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Dogs especially have always held a special place in my heart, and I truly enjoy spending time with them—whether it's going for walks, playing fetch, or just giving them some extra love and attention. My wife, a veterinarian, shares that same deep passion for animals. Together, we make a great team when it comes to pet care. With her veterinary expertise and my lifelong experience with animals, we work to ensure your dog receives the safest, happiest, and highest quality care possible. We look forward to meeting your pup! I am active duty air force but have flexibility in my schedule during the week and am free most weekends. My schedule is usually very solid, so I know far in advance when I will be free or not. I am usually available for pickups after 2 PM weekdays and anytime during the weekend. I have a large fenced yard and a 3 bedroom house with plenty of room for your pet to run and relax! My wife is a veterinarian, so we make sure that the environment provides the safest and healthiest experience for your four legged friend!

“Heather is amazing with our dogs! She is so patient and has taken the time to get to know their unique personalities- and work with them!
