“I recently moved to the area for work, and one of my top priorities was finding a dependable dog walker. I can confidently say that I’ve found the perfect one in Jon. He’s been absolutely wonderful. My dog Rosie tends to be quite anxious around new people, but Jon has been so patient and understanding, allowing her to build trust with him at her own pace. I can’t recommend Jon highly enough!”
“Absolutely love Eva and her sweet calm personality! My pups love her and come back happy and tired from their walk! Highly recommend her and her dog walking service!”
“The best!!!! Jackie is a fantastic walker for my special guy. I was able to tell how much she cares just from the meet and greet. Jackie is very punctual, reliable, and flexible. You can tell she is really on top of things and her attention to detail is superb. She has provided consistent loving care for bud! Highly recommended!!!”
“We have been using Neil for several months now and our Shepard "Thor" is in love with him. He gets so excited even if we say his name when he's not around. If we say "uncle Neil" he runs to the window and looks for him! Truly an amazing and caring man that puts 150% into his furry friends! We highly recommend Neil to anyone that needs this service. Thank you NEIL!”
“Annie was so great! She was kind, responsible, and responsive. I received messages when she arrived, and she told me how everything went when she left, along with a pic of my pup. Thanks for walking Penny!”
“Really glad that we found Jonny who helped us out for multiple walks with our dog. He was very responsive, always prompt, great with our dog, and flexible when our needs changed. I would recommend him to anyone and will gladly book within him again!”
“Thomas is wonderful and won over my very shy dog quickly, was accommodating and wonderfully pleasant to work with. You’d be very lucky to have him as your dog helper when in need.”
“Claudine is an excellent reliable dog walker and my pup Pebbie is beyond thrilled to see her during her weekly walks!! She is very attentive to my pup and her needs. Her walks are long and just the right amount of time for my pup to burn energy. She even plays fun games to also make the walks more mentally stimulating. I cannot recommend Claudine and her services enough!”
“Jonathan has gotten my very reactive - anxious baby to begin walking (and pooping) confidently on leash after just a few sessions. We couldn't do this over years. We're stunned! So happy to be working with Jonathan.”
About: I have had pets my whole life, dogs, hamsters, rabbits, fish, even a cat! I love all animals and would love to care for your fur baby! I also worked in an animal hospital for a year in college! I work odd hours so my availability changes but I am looking to replace one of my jobs with Rover! I know my schedule in advance so my availability as it shows will be accurate. I’m home most mornings until about 1:30 and then I am only gone until 5. I will take your pet on long walks and make sure to play and offer lots of enrichment, as well as belly scratches and love while you’re away! I can crate your dog if necessary and if provided.
About: I have two kitties of my own, but have experience with both dogs and cats, including giving extra medical attention to elderly pets. I grew up around animals and absolutely love being around all kinds of pets. Would love to help out with your fur babies! I work full time, but work from home two days a week (W/F) and am available most evenings and weekends. I am very communicative and responsive, and will do my best to accommodate your schedule and needs! If I am in your home, I will be respectful of your space and ensure everything is left clean and how it was upon arrival!
“Kyra was great with rusty. He came home looking satisfied and prefered to relax which is what he usually does after a long and happy walk. Kyra was patient in introducing herself and getting to know Rusty before they went on for a walk. She also took time to understand his walk preferences and the routes he prefers. Her warm and friendly demenour towards rusty was great and looked like Rusty made a new friend by the end of it. We certainly recommend Kyra to anyone looking for help with their fur baby and will definitely reach out to her in the future.”
“Jenette is a fantastic dog walker! She was super quick to schedule a meet and greet. Was great handling our 6 mo old beagle mix and taught us a few tricks to reduce leash pulling!”
About: I've been working with animals since I was a child, helping my mother train and foster dogs and cats. I went into the zookeeping industry to level up my animal husbandry skills, so I'm able to handle most animals big and small. I have an open and flexible schedule, and I don't mind waking up early or coming in late to walk or check in on your dog. I have worked with over 50 foster dogs and I am experienced in animal husbandry. If your dog has any special needs or medications or anything else I can accommodate that quite easily. My goal is to make sure your pet is properly attended to and all of it's needs are met.
About: Hello! My name is Natalie. I have always loved taking care of animals and have about 15 years of combined pet care experience. Apart from caring for my family dog, I've had the pleasure of house & pet sitting, dog walking, and reptile/amphibian feeding for a variety of friends and family. I don't have any allergies and I would love to take care of your wonderful pets! I am very responsible and attentive, and I care about making your pet care experience as stress free as possible. I'm currently between jobs and expanding my art and creative business so my schedule is very flexible. I enjoy the routine of pet care and would love to establish regular clients! Apart from the usually scheduled activities such as walks and feeding times etc. I love to play with and give time and attention to pets. Cuddle bugs are especially welcome ;) I am also very aware of animal body language, and try to anticipate their needs and respect their boundaries.

Another amazing visit with Andrea! Laney loves her and they had a great time. While we were away, my mother and son were also present for Andrea’s visits and remarked how kind and friendly she was in addition to her great care of Laney. Thank you Andrea for being part of the village that allows us to step away every so often!
Claudine is an excellent reliable dog walker and my pup Pebbie is beyond thrilled to see her during her weekly walks!! She is very attentive to my pup and her needs. Her walks are long and just the right amount of time for my pup to burn energy. She even plays fun games to also make the walks more mentally stimulating. I cannot recommend Claudine and her services enough!
Valery was so great with my puppy Tonka! She followed all detailed instructions left for her and she was very sweet and great at communicating. I got a lot of updated photo of her and the pup having a great time which made me a very happy dog mom! I would recommend Valery to care for your little best friends and I will definitely be booking her again soon! She helped make this process seamless and trustworthy. Thanks again Valery for the level of care you brought to my home and pup ! We are excited to welcome you back soon.
Jadis took excellent care of our senior dog, Rocky, and was so easy to work with. She was very understanding of the few limitations he has and kept us updated with texts and pictures throughout his walks. Will definitely be reaching out again to book with her soon!
