Dog Walking • Dec 19, 2025

Big fans!! I was looking for someone to help me walk my dog, Cadbury, during the week. They’ve taken her on two walks and she’s already obsessed. It’s a huge relief to have a backup walker, and Cadbury is very appreciative of the extra attention. Kaija and Chris a great communicators and very attentive to the dog’s needs. I’m looking forward to working with them for a long time!

Kaija and Chris are my first choice when I need a sitter for my frenchie, Gus! I know he is well taken care of with them and their communication really puts me at ease when I’m away from my fur baby. I would definitely recommend them if you’re looking for someone to care for your pet!

Chris and Kaija are the kindest people and dog owners. They own a sweet Miniature Australian Shepard that they take great care of, so I know they will take great care of all dogs. They are true dog lovers who want to help out.

Kaija helped me in a real pinch on a Saturday night! I could not thank her enough. I felt so at ease knowing my pup was taken care of.

As a long-time friend of Chris and Kaija, I can confidently say you’ll be hard-pressed to find better dog sitters and owners anywhere else. In addition to being reliable, responsible, experienced, and knowledgable, they will treat your dog as one of their own, going above and beyond to make them feel at home. My dog absolutely loves spending time with them (and their sweet pup Percy) and always comes back happy and tired from all the play and attention. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch your dog, I could not recommend them enough.

Kaija and Chris have been watching my dog since he was 11 weeks old (he is almost 5 now). They have watched him for the day, overnight, taken him on walks and everything in between! My dog loves to socialize and meet everyone and they do a great job keeps him out of trouble when they take him out and about!
