“Madison is great! She took our dog on a walk around the neighborhood, she was very kind and easy to coordinate with. We look forward to booking her again!”


5. Maeve D.

“Maeve has been extremely accommodating and most importantly adoring with my puppy Maple. I find it very rewarding to find such a wonderful walker who’s great with changing schedules and who always sends updates. If you want someone reliable and trustworthy I would chose Maeve any day as it’s hard to find those who are trustworthy, an awesome communicator and a dog lover like yourself.”


6. Emma G.

“So happy I was able find someone like Emma in my area. She has been so reliable, responsive and consistent. It makes my day when I see the detailed messages about her visit with my dogs. My girls looks so happy with her in the photos she sends. You can tell she enjoys what shes doing!”


7. Lauren D.
“Lauren has been our primary cat sitter for several years now and we could not recommend her more highly! It's always hard to leave our cat, CJ, at home when we travel, but it's a comfort to know Lauren will take great care of her, making sure she has plenty of food, water, and socialization while we're away. She also sends us pictures and videos of CJ excitedly greeting her at the door and messages us updates whenever she visits. Lauren is also awesome with dogs, as she has two of her own with some unique care needs. They're two of the happiest and best cared-for boys you'll ever meet!”


8. Natasia D.
“Natasia has been our go-to pet sitter for over 3 years—for everything from short trips to stays of multiple weeks. My dog Rosey lights up every time she sees her. Natasia is super attentive and really tunes in to each dog’s personality and quirks, which makes me feel so confident leaving Rosey in her care. If anything is off, she picks up on it right away. She prioritizes Rosey’s usual routine when she is in her care. Vacation is fun, but there is always a piece of your heart that is left behind, and knowing Rosey is in second to none care helps us enjoy vacation without worrying. We are so lucky we found Natasia!”


9. Laura J.

“I just started with Laura a week ago. So far Laura and my dog are creating a wonderful bond. Laura is terrific! She is trustworthy, she has a key to my home. I love all the footage I receive whilst she’s with my large dog. I’m very impressed with Laura’s depth of knowledge in dog care. Also she is very humble in her personal accomplishments relating to human and animal communication and skills. I highly recommend Laura.”


10. Alexandra M.
“Alex is the best! I may be a bit biased since she is my daughter, but you won't find a better person to take of your pup!! Her dream would be to start a version of the Asher House as she loves dog and wants to take care of as many as she can. We have had our own dogs and she takes amazing care of them. Honestly, I think she prefers dogs over humans. Once you meet her, you will know that you can trust her to take amazing care of your dogs and give them the love they deserve!”


11. jeffrey s.
“I’ve known Jeff my whole life. He’s always had animals growing up. He loves dogs you could call him the dog whisperer . He’s very trustworthy. He watches my dog when I go on vacation.”


12. John & Donna T.
“John and Donna T provide a reliable and dependable dog caregiver service. They are attentive and caring for each individual dog's needs. As they've had their own dogs, they know how precious each individual dog means.”


13. Catherine G.
“First of all, Cat is extremely dependable and always arrives right on time. If anything comes up that may alter the walk schedule, Cat communicates it promptly. In addition to hitting all the right notes for the pet parent, Cat couldn't be more friendly and respectful and interested in my sweet girl Lucy. In addition to walking Lucy, Cat checks Lucy's water bowl and agreed to give Lucy her afternoon meal. I found this to be so helpful and so generous that I try to make it as easy for Cat as possible to feed Lucy. I almost didn't want to leave a review because I don't want competition for Cat, but Cat deserves five stars!!!”


14. Kristen & Bobby D.

“Kristen & Bobby are wonderful dog walkers, and human beings. Communication was great, especially with me being out of town for the duration of the time we had them walk Gary. They really love Gary and it showed: they spent lots of time with him and recorded all his poops and pees so we knew when he would need to go next. They even sent pictures to confirm the walk (and Gary was happy in all of them!). They were kind, and even made our six month old daughter laugh and smile. Very professional, on time, and flexible with our schedule. Highly recommended to anyone.”


15. Jennifer C.
“I will start by saying that I am an overly protective pet parent. I have standards that may be a bit much but it’s just who I am as a dog owner. With that said, Jen took such great care of my beloved Charlie. He was the king of the house during his visit, laying in Jens bed, out enjoying walks… Jen is so kind and accomodating. Anyone would be lucky to have such a loving pet sitter while away.”


16. Sam B.

“Sam was wonderful! We were in a pinch after moving and our dog being stressed. She came through at the last minute and eased everyone’s anxiety :)”


17. Hannah G.
About: We have had dogs since I was a baby. Always been a major help with taking care of them; feeding, bathing, walking, etc. I spent most summers growing up with my aunt who had a pet sitting business working with her. Recently back from a deployment and able to take care of your pets any time or any day while I wait for my new job to start! While I cannot house your pet at my home, I would love to come take them of them in yours! I am very flexible, adaptable, and tidy.


18. Emily G.
“Emily has a great affection for animals and has worked in the pet care grooming and boarding field. She is very attentive, caring, punctual and is very good at following instructions and special circumstances. I have no doubt you will find her to be a wonderful pet caregiver.”


19. Gaven L.

“Gavin is fantastic!”


20. Michael C.

“So glad I found Michael he's an excellent dog walker - prompt, reliable, caring and great communicator. My dog who doesn't warm up to new people well warmed up to him immediately.”
