Lauren has been an amazing dog walker for my dog, Ginger. She’s kind, reliable, and always gives Ginger the best walks. What I love most is that she takes the time to snap adorable photos of Ginger every single day. It’s such a nice touch! Lauren also keeps me updated on how Ginger is doing, which puts my mind at ease. It’s clear she really cares about the dogs she works with, and Ginger absolutely adores her. I’m so happy to have found Lauren and would highly recommend her to anyone!

Haowen has been a communicative and reliable dog walker for my pup Henry! Henry is usually slow to warm up to men, but was so happy when they met! Haowen has gone the extra mile to refill Henry’s water when dropping him off.

Samantha is a great communicator and caretaker. Samantha is a regular dogwalker for my medium/large rescue lab/shepherd mix named Tofu, who has some level of anxiety. Samantha always updates me if there are changes in schedule or with Tofu’s behaviors during the walk. Samantha also asks questions and is attentive to Tofu’s needs, and has been building a positive consistent relationship. Thank you, Samantha for giving Tofu the exercise he needs!

Megan is great! She took care of our Yorkie, Mochi, for two walking sessions, and Mochi was always so happy when she returned home. Our puppy tends to be reactive during walks, so we provided Megan with a dog walker guide. Megan carefully read through the guide before the first walk and communicated openly and proactively before each walk. We strongly recommend Megan to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!

About: I’m a mom of 3 cats ever since I was 20. I learned how to take care of them by their reactions. I also have experience taking care of ill cats. I’m a freelancer work during the day. I’m free before 10am and after 3pm on weekdays. But schedule can change if needed. Weekends are always welcome. I will be very respectful to clients’ properties. And I will record myself the time I’m in the room with their beloved friends. Definitely respect the pets too.

Danny has been absolutely wonderful with West. From the very beginning, it was clear how knowledgeable and experienced he is with dogs. He takes the time to understand West's personality, needs, and energy level, and it shows in every interaction. Danny is reliable, professional, and genuinely loves what he does. He has also shared helpful insights and advice that have been incredibly valuable. I highly recommend Danny to anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and caring dog walker.

Steven walked my dog Dexter for about eight months, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He was always kind, professional, and genuinely cared about Dexter’s well-being. Both Steven and Tiffany were communicative, reliable, and flexible whenever schedules changed. We’re moving out of the neighborhood and are genuinely sad to be saying goodbye. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.

Ren was amazing with Gronk. Super easy to communicate with, really thoughtful, and you can tell she genuinely cares. She took him on awesome walks and made sure he got plenty of cuddle time, which is very much his love language. I always felt like he was in great hands, not just being watched but actually cared for and happy. We’re so glad we found her and will definitely be having her back. Highly recommend.
