Jose took great care of Sammie, especially as she is a shelter dog, and has been improving with her reactive nature on leash! I got 2-3 pictures and a cute blurb about each visit, which was so reassuring! Highly recommend and would have him care for her again anytime.

Alyson (and her daughter!) took great care of Ginger on incredibly short notice. She set up a video meet and greet, was willing to administer medicine, sent great updates, and even took care of above and beyond things like scooping the litter box when I didn't ask her to! Ginger was happy and so were we!

Meredith is just incredible when it comes to taking care of our fur babies! My dogs are pretty spoiled and highly energetic, and Meredith totally embraces it. Our girls are now in great shape and they are getting out allllll the energy! Plus they LOVE her and look forward to their morning walks. Meredith is a great communicator, super flexible and caring. We’re really lucky to have found her! She sends us pictures of our sweet girls almost every day with updates and pictures of walks and playing. We have found OUR dog walker for sure. I HIGHLY recommend her.

Sophia is caring, kind and responsible. She will likely spoil your dog! She grew up in a neighborhood surrounded by dogs and has always helped care for them. She also loves the outdoors (being an avid hiker) so long and wet walks don’t scare her!

Dave and dogs! There isn't a greater match made in heaven. His active and friendly nature helps all animals to relate and find confort by his side. Whether he is taking them for a hike, walk, swim, or just spending some time with them, Dave always finds ways to make his pups bark with joy! My husband and I have a lab named Marley who, when she sees Dave, runs to her playmate as if he was her family. There isn't anyone I trust more with my furbaby than Dave.

Hannah was our go to pet sitter for our 2 dogs and 1 cat for years until she (sadly) moved out of state. She was great with their feeding schedules, giving meds as needed, and making sure they were healthy and happy under her care. They still get the wildest case of wiggle butts whenever she comes to visit!

About: Growing up, my parents would never let me have a dog for the fear that they would have to take care of it. Despite my 10+ years of running a small pet sitting business, constantly discovering (more like calling for animals and leaving treats out… oops), and helping rehabilitate wild animals, my parents stuck to their guns. Needless to say, I love all animals and I adopted a stray dog as soon as I could. I have years of experience house sitting and pet sitting for dogs, cats, and reptiles. I frequently provided overnight care to my clients and kept care of people’s homes for months at a time. Due to school and getting into the groove of a new job, I had to take a break but I am now looking for new furry faces. I am a occupational therapist whose schedule varies. I am flexible and able to accommodate all potty break times on the days I do not work as a therapist. I am always changing up my tune to make my sure my clients feel comfortable and safe with me. Should we take a slow stroll down the street with plenty of time to sniff? A brisk walk in a new part of town? Or maybe just some extra time getting to know each other with some belly rubs. I understand every day is a new day which means my clients might need something different every time, flexibility is my middle name.

Biangy is extremely caring and responsible when it comes to caring for animals. No matter the breed cat, dogs, birds ect. she is extremely loving. She has her certification in vet assistant and has worked at multiple pet daycares caring for other peoples pets. When she walks by a pet she just has to stop and greet them. I definitely recommend her to be one of your caregivers.

Lizz was absolutely fantastic, FIVE STARS!! This was our first trip since we adopted our kitty and we were nervous, especially since he’s in a rambunctious phase and can be needy. Lizz put us at ease with how professional and supportive she was during the meet and greet and we didn’t hesitate to confirm our booking right then. While we were away, she sent us the cutest pics and updates and kept us in the loop on how he was settling in, eating and using the litter box. He can be a bit skittish but seeing how he warmed right up to Lizz is a testament to her abilities!! We feel so comfortable knowing that we have someone skilled and experienced that we can rely on for our next trip!!

I’ve been using Frances for dog walking services for my puppy Sonic who is only 4 months, super active, and needy. Frances handles him well and he absolutely loves her. She’s always punctual and very responsible with my pup. Would 10/10 recommend her! Can’t say enough great things, she makes my life easier.

Caroline Was absolutely fantastic. My dog is a super high energy Catahoula Leopard. He's a handful for even a skilled trainer. Caroline handled him with amazing calm and efficiency. Moving forward Caroline will be the only dog handler to take care of Moose when we travel without him.
