“Daniel has been the best dog walker I have ever had. My girls seem to love him dearly! My dogo argentino is a big girl, and a load of work and he managed everything perfectly with her. One dog is blind and one is deaf and he was amazing with them. Great pictures, amazing updates, went above and beyond. Extremely pleased and will book again moving forward!”
“We were impressed with Cindy's reliability and professionalism, and we are disappointed that it didn't work out with our dogs, for reasons unrelated to her. We certainly recommend Cindy to other owners.”

About: With hands-on experience from working at an animal shelter, I’ve cared for pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’m active, strong, and trained in reading animal body language to ensure safe, patient care. I love providing enrichment and helping nervous pets feel calm and secure. As a devoted pet parent to one dog and two cats, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else, and I care for every animal as if they were my own. I currently work from home, so my availability is wide open! I love having furry company during the day and can easily adjust my schedule around your pet’s needs. Morning, afternoon, or evening — I’m flexible and always happy to make time for extra belly rubs or walks. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to learn every detail that matters — from quirks and favorite toys to the words and calls they respond to best. I ask plenty of questions upfront so I can follow their routine exactly, keeping them comfortable and stress-free. I respect each pet’s personality, whether that means lots of playtime, quiet companionship, or both. I also treat every home with the same care and respect as my own, and I provide regular updates so owners have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and cared for.
About: Hi, Matt here. I’ve been around dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. What sets me apart is that I understand dog behavior, routines, and needs from real, hands-on experience—not just from reading about it. I’m calm, reliable, and confident with dogs of all sizes and personalities, whether they’re high-energy and need exercise or more laid-back and just want companionship. I pay close attention to detail, follow instructions closely, and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. My goal is always to treat every dog like they’re part of my own family and make sure owners have complete peace of mind. I’m currently a full-time teacher and will have open availability in the summer time to care for your pets! During the school year I am also available after 3:30 PM on weekdays for any walks, drop ins, etc. I have two dogs on my own and I am focused on safety! Pets will always be secure with a leash while on walks and kept away from other animals walking by. If being let out in the yard I always double check that the fence is secured, and there are no areas where dogs can escape.

In a client’s home, I respect the space as if it were my own- keeping it clean, orderly, and aligned with the dog’s familiar routine to ensure comfort and continuity. I maintain a calm, clean and structured environment which provides a close supervised setting tailored to each dog’s needs. I follow all owner instructions precisely, including feeding schedules, medication administration, exercise routines, and behavioral guidelines. Dogs in my care are never left unattended or put near unsafe situations as they are always secured during walks with properly fitted leashes and harnesses. I conduct controlled, mindful walks being awareness of surroundings, other animals, and traffic. For dogs with anxiety, medical conditions, or special needs, I provide gentle handling, quiet spaces, and consistent routines to reduce stress.
