“Collette is amazing! I’m a new dog mom so I definitely can be overbearing at times but she handles everything perfectly. So glad I have her to walk my pup for me while I’m at work 💗”
“Lindsey is absolutely INCREDIBLE! The love and care she shows for my pup is unmatched. She goes above and beyond to work with my schedule and is truly such a kind person. If you’re looking for someone to look after your pup in any way. No hesitation. It HAS to be Lindsey. You will not regret it!!!”
“Valerie is great with Jax!! She keeps me informed and up to date when she is with him, love the pics I receive of him during her walks with him!! I definitely recommend her”
“Jessica was amazing! She walked my two dogs, a high strung chihuahua and elderly dog (14 y.o.), for 30min for 4 days. She reached out and asked if I wanted her to meet the dogs before walking them which was great. The chihuahua tends to bark his head off at strangers, and I wasn't sure how he'd react (he ended up running away from her the first day for 15min, sorry Jessica). The older dog had diarrhea throughout the house one day, and cleaning up after something like that isn't really what I consider her job. I told her she didn't need to worry about it, and I'd deal with it when I got back. However, she ended up cleaning up as much as she could anyways (that's going to be a big tip). Besides my dogs being a huge pain. She always responded quickly and sent a lot of pictures from the walks.”
“Lucy was fantastic! We did a meet and greet beforehand, and I could tell right away that she was someone I could trust. She was wonderful with my dog, followed all of my instructions, and kept in great communication throughout, including sending plenty of photos. I’d absolutely book with her again if the need comes up!”
“This is our first time using Rover and Holly has been so wonderful! Not only is she on time and reliable, she is great at communicating and my dog is so happy for his walks! She happily incorporates his training during his walks and checks in with us, asking questions when needed to make sure she is doing everything right. I would highly recommend 🐾”
About: Hello, my name is Rylie! I am such a dog lover! Although I never owned one myself, I enjoy taking care of others to fill that void. I have been dog sitting since I was about 10 years old for multiple neighbors. Many would describe me as responsible and passionate since a very young age. I even attended many dog training classes for a puppy I babysat for two years. I am excited to continue my journey of taking care of dogs and other animals and ensure that owners will have enjoy time away without any stresses. I have lots of available time throughout the day to take pets on walks, feed, and check up on. I can ensure you that your pets are my top priority. The first and last thing I do before leaving a client’s house is checking the perimeters of the house to make sure assure there were no accidents made. I make sure there’s nothing your pets can get a hold of and chew on while I am taking care of them.
“Paige took great care and did very well with Eli on his walks, she even made sure he was content with a nice treat at the end. I would highly recommend Paige and will definitely be utilizing her services again.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 16. From neighbors to friends, I love taking care of animals and giving them what they need. I am currently unemployed so I can check in multiple times a day throughout the week. I do prefer mornings and evenings instead of nights I prefer taking care of pets in my client’s home. I will follow the instructions my client provides for how their pet needs to be treated.
About: I've had dogs ever since I've been born. Currently, I have four dogs back at home and at my apartment, I have a puppy named Wentz, who is two years old as of March. I've dog sat for all of my neighbors and I love dogs. I'll love yours! I'm in college and I have a lot of online classes so I am available throughout the day pretty frequently, especially Tuesdays and Thursdays. I have one class on those days and then two on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Friday. Very skilled with puppies, currently have one of my own, and my family has had two litters of puppies so consider me built in and equipped to deal with anything your fur baby will throw at me. Thanks for considering me!
About: I've been caring for dogs of all ages for over 7 years. I worked at a dog daycare for over 5 years. I helped watch up to 30 dogs of all ages and sizes on my own. I also helped bathe them, trim/dremmel their nails, and clean their ears/teeth. I am currently a stay at home mom so I have a pretty flexible schedule. I do have a 6 month old daughter I like to be with me, but if your pet is uncomfortable with kids I do have family that can watch her as well.😊 I have experience handling multiple dogs at once. I have been certified for cpr for canines as well. I have also been trained to break up incidents between dogs as well through my job at a dogdaycare and apply basic medical treatment to injuries.
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs my entire life, from blind old dogs to the most hyper of kittens and shepherd dogs, I've seen it all. My care reaches a broad range as needed. I'm currently working part time, with availability most of the day. Let me know what you need, and I'll operate my best around those needs. I care for pets with utmost patience. I can crate animals if provided and needed, go for long walks, and more! Open to a variety of services
About: I’ve had animals all my life growing up we always had dogs and cats. As an adult we have had dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, hamsters, and a fish tank in our home I’ve worked in healthcare for the past 36 years and am ready to step away from the bedside. I enjoy animals so much and can’t wait to pamper your fur babies I would treat your animals as if they were my own, if you have a fenced yard I am more than happy to play with them if not I will leach walk them

Rylie L.
“We’ve been incredibly lucky to have Rylie as our dog sitter for several years. From the very first visit, it was clear that Gringo felt completely at ease and genuinely loved spending time with Rylie. Whether we were gone for the day, a weekend, or a longer trip, we always knew our pup was in caring, capable hands. Rylie not only kept Gringo safe and happy, but she also went above and beyond—sending regular updates, photos, and making sure he stuck to his routine which gave us such peace of mind. Rylie is dependable, loving, and truly passionate about animals. We’re so grateful for the years of care, and we know Gringo felt the same way. Highly recommend!”

Every time she watches them, I know they’re in great hands. She takes the time to get to know their personalities and keeps me updated, which gives me so much peace of mind. I couldn’t ask for a better caregiver — Deja goes above and beyond every single time. Highly recommended.”
Erin P.
“I have lived with Erin for almost a year now and have watched her take care of her dog Wentz as he’s grown from a puppy into the very well mannered and well behaved dog i live with now. She takes him on walks and to the dog park multiple times a day and is the best dog owner I have ever met. Her love for all animals is unmatched”
Mary B.
“Mary was amazing! I can’t thank her enough for the incredible job she did taking care of my two dogs while I was out of town. From the very beginning, she was communicative, kind, and clearly experienced with pets. While I was away, she kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind. When I came home, both dogs were happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious they felt comfortable and loved in her care. As a bonus, I came back to a clean, tidy home—which I didn’t expect, but definitely appreciated! Mary truly went above and beyond. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and loving sitter.”

I have gone from one dog to 3 over the past few years and all three of them love her. One less thing for me to worry about when I’m out of town!”
