“Chelsea has been a wonderful and reliable walker for my dog, Hoagie, for several months. She does a great job of keeping me informed on how things are going on the walks and always take some nice pictures. She even brought a toy or two as a Christmas gift. I highly recommend Chelsea and so does Hoagie.”

Communication and availability has been great! Thanks for all of our last minute bookings! :) We will definitely continue to book walks!”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who has a family dog on the other side of the state! I have over 7 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, ranging from 3-month-old puppies to sweet senior dogs who want more love than play time. For the past 4 years, I’ve been trusted to walk, drop in, and house-sit for multiple families/friends, providing attentive, loving care while keeping their homes safe and clean. Whether it’s a nice day/evening walk, an overnight stay, or a drop-in visit for a couple of hours during the day, I make sure your pets feel loved, comfortable, safe, and entertained. I love going for walks, playing fetch, playing with toys, and giving them all the attention they deserve and need! If your dog loves to lounge and cuddle while watching TV, they'll become a fan of reality TV pretty quickly. In addition to pet care while house-sitting, I will gladly water your plants, bring in and sort mail, and ensure your home stays clean and cared for while you’re away. Your pets will be treated like my own as I watch them, and your home will be cared for like it is my own. I currently work FT in health care, which only requires 3 days of work a week! While my work days vary week to week, I am a home body the other 4 days of the week so your pets will feel loved and cared for while your gone! Since I just bought my house, I am currently not offering boarding in my own home; however, I would be glad to stay over at your place (when available) and care for your pets! If you don’t have a yard, no problem! I will gladly take them for walks around the neighborhood and make sure their needs are met. If your pet needs a drop-in visit for love during the day, we can spend time playing, cuddling, eating some treats (if applicable), and take a bathroom break or two!
About: I've lived with animals pretty much my entire life. I've had two dogs, two rats, a mouse, a ferret, and seven cats total. I often pet sit my friends and families dogs and cats and even guinea pigs and geckos. So while I don't have any trained professional experience in pet care, I do have an abundance of personal experience. I absolutely adore animals so I will do my best to treat yours with as much care as I have. This is my full time job so I will be available for all of my listed services every day of the week from 8 am - 10 pm preferably in day light hours. I am very flexible with my hours so I can prioritize your schedule. While walking your pet I will remain vigilant to ensure its safety. I will follow any rules/instructions given to me such as how/if to interact with other people/animals.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was little including my family dog as well as friends and neighbors dogs. I also take care of individuals with severe disabilities for a living and have helped care for therapy animals. I have a full time job but it is an extremely flexible schedule. I typically make my schedule the week before but things are able to change day by day if needed. I currently live in an apartment with my boyfriend but the apartment has a dog park that I am more than willing to take the dog to. I am also willing to take the dog to any of their favorite places or a nearby park.
“Kelsey has been great with our handful of a German shepherd! She can be a bit reactive, and Kelsey does so well with her. She is reliable and kind. I was hesitant to have someone else walk our dog, but Kelsey made me feel comfortable and now my pup gets a nice walk on my long work days. I would definitely reccomend her!”

Lauren is great. She is my go-to babysitter for the girls. Lauren is prompt, reliable, and professional. She goes above and beyond. One time my dog got a bunch of stickers stuck in her fur when she jumped into a bush. Lauren stayed additional time to brush her out and make sure my girl was comfortable. Lauren is a great communicator. I don’t have to worry whether she will respond in a certain amount of time. She keeps me updated when she stops by and lets me know if there are any issues or lets me know the visit went well. This is v important to me because sometimes my girls can be naughty. Also, we live in a small space so it puts me at ease to hear that they are doing ok.
Mandie did very well with our really shy COVID-19 rescue pup! We hired her to walk him and take him around the neighborhood, so he can get experience with other people. She did very well with him. She also did a great job with Tasha, our Siberian Husky, who just loves a good walk around the park!
Carlie from the get-go has been communicative, caring, attentive, and professional. I have a nervous dog who can be high maintenance and she took careful note of all his neurotic tendencies (: They hit it off and it’s a relief to have peace of mind about who’s care he is in. Highly recommend!
