Elise is amazing. She always responds to booking requests super fast, leaves detailed notes about her visit, and takes plenty of pictures for me. She does thoughtful things for my dog all the time like turn the fan on for her or give her an ice cube. I always know my dog is taken care of and Elise is very obviously passionate about caring for animals and it is evident everytime she’s with my dog.

I booked Daniel to take my 18 month old pitbull Maggie for daily walks. We have finished our first week and everything went splendidly. We are working on desensitizing Maggie to normal every day. Sounds and Daniel has been a great help in understanding the mission and moving towards success, I have him booked on an ongoing basis. Maggie is becoming more comfortable with him and I feel we will ultimately reach our goal.

Great Experience - Lauren was amazing! She arrived on time and was great on the communication process. She immediately gave attention to our Mimi and got comfortable with her first, while receiving instructions from my wife. Lauren listened to all the do's and don'ts with our baby and asked great questions - She took great care of her and we would certainly recommend to anyone thinking about this service. Thank you Lauren!! (I'm sure Mimi misses you!) Brad & Laurel

Michelle was fantastic! It was my big puppy’s first time alone, and she adapted the walking schedule to help him feel comfortable, playing with him first and quickly earning his trust. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend!

Emily is by far our first choice when we needed a dog walker. She is prompt, reliable, trustworthy, and will update me when I'm out of town which is always comforting. I love how Emily pays attention to detail. I would highly recommend Emily and her pet sitting services to all my friends and family.

Duncan walked our 2 dogs twice a day while we were out of town for about a week and we couldn't have been happier. He was very reliable, professional and friendly and our boys really liked him. They were well taken care of and Duncan made sure to keep us updated the whole time. Highly recommended
