Padraic is totally incredible. Our puppy fell in love with him immediately. He went above and beyond to take care of our rambunctious and wild 3 month old puppy while we were away. I would recommend him to anyone and we will surely ask him to pupsit again in the future!

Padraic is an exceptional dog walker—responsible, patient, dedicated, flexible, and completely trustworthy. Our almost 3-year-old dog is a rescued and very skittish pup who is incredibly sweet and affectionate but needs a lot of time to feel comfortable with new people and new surroundings. In the beginning, she barked at him constantly and hesitated during the first several walks, but Padraic never rushed her. With his calm, gentle, and friendly manner, he gradually earned her trust and helped her relax. Padraic consistently goes above and beyond to make sure our dog feels safe and comfortable, and he has always been accommodating to our needs. We feel very lucky to have found him. I highly recommend Padraic without hesitation, and we will absolutely be asking for his walking services again and again!

Padraic was a huge help, accommodating our very last-minute booking request. He is easy-going, took excellent care of both our house and our dog, Maya, and was a proactive communicator who didn't hesitate to ask necessary questions.

Padraic stayed with our two dogs for a week and was just wonderful to work with! He is super easy to communicate with, incredibly caring and responsible with the pups, and gave us daily updates of all the cuddles and fun they were having. We were very grateful to have someone so reliable and good with dogs to care for our boys. Highly recommend!
