“Tomoko has been walking my dog for almost a month now and she’s so awesome! The minute we met for the meet and greet, her kindness and warmth shone through, putting both me and my pup at ease :) she’s very responsible through texts, always punctual, and ensures my pup gets his walk without a fail. If you’re looking for someone who loves animals and will take good care of them it’s Tomoko! ❤️”

“Francesca was great! We met her for a meet & greet and she was very kind and got along great with our frenchie, Birdie. She came over for an hour to feed, walk and hang out with her. We really appreciated her detailed notes and great photos. She even brought in our packages, which was so nice. We definitely recommend her and will be booking her in the future!”

About: What sets me apart is my deep understanding of dog behavior and needs, developed through years of experience and ongoing education. I’m not just a sitter, but a true dog lover who is passionate about ensuring every dog I care for feels safe, happy, and understood. I tailor my care to each dog’s unique personality, whether it’s working with puppies to build solid training foundations, or providing gentle, specialized care for senior dogs. I’m experienced in managing behavioral issues, offering enrichment activities, and creating a calm, structured environment that keeps dogs engaged and relaxed. My goal is to not only care for your dog but to enrich their life while you’re away. I provide these services professionally. This isn’t a part time gig out of my apartment or parents home just to earn a few $$ here and there. I’ve dedicated my entire home, career and life towards making sure my /your furballs are taken care of the way nature intended. A love for dogs and cats can only take you so far, the rest falls on one’s knowledge, skills & experience, all of which I personally look for when considering someone with whom I will entrust the lives of the most important members of my family. Pet care is at the heart of my daily routine. I dedicate my entire day to giving dogs the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. From walks and playtime to ensuring they’re fed and comfortable, I tailor each day based on the individual dog’s needs. Whether it's a relaxing afternoon or an active outing, my priority is making sure every dog feels happy, safe, and loved throughout the day. I take great pride in creating a safe, comfortable environment for each dog, whether it's in my home or theirs. Safety always comes first, in the form of securing the space, monitoring playtime, and ensuring all pets are properly supervised. I always take the time to understand each owner’s preferences and routines, making sure their dog feels at ease and well-cared-for. By sticking to feeding schedules, using specific training techniques, or providing extra cuddles for dogs who need it, I tailor my care to fit each dog’s individual needs and the owner's expectations. When asked, pet owners love the feedback I offer them.
About: I am a lover of all animals and have experience taking care of mine, neighbors, friends and family members' dogs, cats, and even bunnies! I have experience walking, feeding, and bathing dogs and love helping pets feel loved and cherished. I would love to care for and love on your pet while you're away! I am currently available on the weekends and hope to broaden my availability in the near future. Caring for pets is something that I enjoy doing and am sure to make time for. I have a 3 year old dog and I currently live in Montrose, CA which is close to parks and great hiking trails for your 4 legged child to enjoy. I will take it slow with your four-legged baby to build trust and make sure he/she is comfortable with me before going on a walk or bringing them home with me for daycare/boarding. Your pet's safety is my priority as we interact together.
About: We are not ready to own a pet full time just yet but I would love to help other owners with their pets. I do have children my youngest being 6 so they do have to be children friendly but I also have a safe space your pet can be separate from them when they want or need to be. I grew up with all different types of animals my whole life as well as worked taking care of, full time, a rescue that consisted of 16 cats, 5 dogs and 5 horses. So I am very familiar with animals and their needs. This is the first time I have not had a pet in my life which is why I decided to join this app. Hope to see you and your pets soon!! I am a licensed real estate agent and mother to three beautiful children. I am available at various times to watch and care for your pets. I love to be outdoors and going for walks. I live in an apartment complex, in the building that sits in the back. I have open space and an outdoors community area where your pet can go for a walk or use the bathroom. I also am comfortable working in others homes with respect to their belongings and personal preferences.
About: I'm a former clinical research nurse coordinator dealing with human patients for 20 years before becoming disabled. I have had pets all of my life. I have adopted several cats and dogs from the humane society including a 3 legged Siamese cat who was a Siamese twin that surgically separated from his sister leaving them both with 3 legs. I have trained several my dogs including a temperamental Dalmatian mix. I currently have a 13 year old Chihuahua/American Eskimo mix, who has Cushing's Disease that is on medication twice a day, a 9 year old Rat Terrier/Toy Poodle mix and an 8 year old black short haired cat that loves snuggling. My little dogs love to play what I call trick or treat. The kitty loves to play fetch the hair elastic and fishing. I have recently started pet sitting for a cat in the neighborhood. I've always loved animals and as a child I wanted to be a veterinarian. I am a former clinical research nurse with 20 years of nursing experience who has been on disability for 10 years. I lost my husband to pancreatic cancer 4 years ago and I now am looking to supplement my income by working with animals and giving and receiving unconditional love. I make sure that the pets are fed, have water, and go potty, (which means cleaning up after them.) Of course play with and walk the dogs. I would come to your home at intervals of 1, 2 or 3 times a day or if you or if you need I can stay at your home to care for your pet.
About: I have been working with animals since childhood, starting with my volunteer work at Kitty Bungalow Rescue for cats! Two years ago I rescued my service dog, my standard poodle Elm, who comes with me on all of my adventures. He is trained, loves other dogs, and very friendly. I would love to help you (and your furry family members) out! I work flexibly and remotely, so I am able to give your pets undivided attention for the entire day. I can be available weekdays or weekends, for a quick dog walk or a long term overnight sit! Aside from being a pet lover I also have experience in cleaning Air BnB's, so I know how to keep a home clean! I'm available for any home-related chores or tasks that you'd like done if I'm sitting at your house.
About: I enjoy providing my services to those pet owners who love their furry friends but don’t seem to have time due to responsibilities, I enjoy walking dogs because it’s good exercise for myself and for the dog to have fun. In my care your dog will never miss a meal, walk, or play time. Providing love and care for the dogs I should meet is my goal. My priority as a dog walker or dog sitter is to make sure the dogs are happy and the owners of the dog/s are happy with my services. I have patience and that is one thing I think most people need to be open too, to be able to care for animals in general and make sure they are cared for throughout the day or days. I do have a full time job but I’m available from 9am-2pm, I want to also motivate myself to go out and walk more. And be accompanied. I am very careful, I will make sure everything is safe for your fur babies. I am 100% attentive, responsible, and respectful towards others spaces.
About: I've taken care of dogs for a long time. Extended family members have dropped off their pets with me when they are away on holiday. I enjoy playing with them. I work from home so your pet will have supervision at all times. Typically I walk my dog, Mochi, once in the morning. Sometimes I play fetch with her around noon if she's up for it. I feed her on schedule daily. I have a large fenced yard and one friendly dog who will enjoy a playmate, as you may see in the first photo of Mochi with the pavers and grass. I make sure that there is always fresh water available for Mochi and that she gets regular outdoor breaks.
About: Currently helping to raise a 12 week golden doodle with my partner. Also helped raise a miniature pinscher mixed beagle that is currently 10 years of age since she was a puppy. Currently working a versatile job in the fashion industry as my schedule is quite open. Lots of free time to give attention to these loving animals. Currently living in a dog friendly neighborhood called Lakeside Apartments. Check their website out as they have a dog bath and even a park. Also love to go outside even during the winter.
“Elizabeth is so communicative and very understanding of Gremi’s needs as a tripod. I also appreciate how she made adjustments to make Gremi feel comfortable on her first walk with her. Gremi had a great time!”


About: I have been having dog for 20 years. I also have hard time to find dog sitting when I go out of town. I want to help someone who has same difficulty as I. I love cuddling with dog therefore if your dog needs it. I prefer boarding during the weekend rather than weekdays. There is pretty safe and quiet walking route around my neighborhood. If your dog needs excercise a lot, I could make them satisfied. I am easy to communicate with mobile device and I kind of know what dog owners are expecting. I would not accept old and sick dog because of liability. I also prefer to take care of pet within my neighbor area. You would not be disappointed. Thank you
About: Since childhood I’ve cared for dogs — mine and others’, have extensive experience, and would be happy if you trusted your pet to me! I’ve had a Golden Retriever and a Staffordshire Terrier; I’m experienced in care, feeding, training, play, development, basic grooming, and daily dog needs. I’m available for weekday walks from 9 AM to 5 PM. Weekend and holiday walks are possible by prior arrangement, as I’m not always available. Unfortunately, I can’t care for pets in my home, as my building doesn’t allow animals. But I’ll gladly look after your pet elsewhere if needed.
About: I absolutely love dogs. I've grown up with dogs all my life, sometimes with 5 in the house at a time. Along with taking care of my own dogs, I began dog sitting and dog walking for family members and family friends when I was 15. I love making dogs happy, getting them out of the house on walks, playing tug of war with them, or just cuddling on the couch. I am a full time college student taking mainly online classes so I have a good amount of availability. I am available Monday-Friday mainly all day, for the weekends I have limited availability but I can always be flexible. I think being respectful of what your boundaries are is most important. Every owner and pup is different and I can adapt well to the different needs for each one. I believe that being gentle and patient is a necessity when it comes to pet care. When walking or caring for your pet I will hold the upmost care for them.
About: My history is mostly with cats. Growing up around cats and small dogs, I have always been a big animal lover. I have two of my own kitties for the past 8 years - Black and Pepper. They both have existing conditions so I am very accustomed to giving topical, oral and injectional medication. I love love love cats! Please pick me so you little one(s) and I can be friends! You won't regret it! I am currently exploring a new career path so caring for animals while I navigate my own trajectory helps give me perspective and purpose, lower my stress level and get me out of the house and away from the screen! I have deep respect for every pet owner’s established routine with their animals. I am myself a cat owner with very specific routines with my cats so I want to make sure my presence in your home and around your animals to as smooth and least disruptive as possible, so that it is enhancing to your babies.
About: My parents bought me a dog when I was 12 and it was my dream. Taking care of a dog taught me to be responsible, understand what a dog wants, and how to behave properly with a dog. I recently moved here and am looking for a job so I have plenty of time to get to know the area and I hope your dog can help me with that :) I like working with dogs not just walking. When I had a dog, I taught him different commands each time we walked and tried to keep the dog as entertained as possible.

Daria is incredible with Lupo, he is always happy to see her and trusts her. We really appreciate the great care that Daria gives him every time she sees him! She’s also very kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with. I cannot thank her enough for all her help!

So grateful to Eliana for being able to take on the job so last minute and perfectly follow the care instructions for my boys without needing the meet and greet. The dogs loved her and I could 100% trust her with my apartment. Despite the challenges my dogs can put someone new through, she handled it all with great professionalism and experience!

Pia is so wonderful! She was super responsive on a last minute request, asked all the right questions, and clearly understands and loves dogs. I haven’t needed a dog walker in at least 5 years so I was a bit nervous to start up again, but I’m so glad I found Pia! Would trust and recommend her to any dog parent :)

It was our first experience engaging a dog walker. Tomoko took the time to do a meet n greet prior to our dog walk requested date. She patiently listed to our sharing our dog’s behaviors , habits and reactions , and how to manage in various situations. She id proactive in raising questions to related concerns that we didn’t cover . Tomoko arrived slightly early on the walk date, she immediately strikes up a friendly rapport with our dog. She had an hr dog walk and reported potty frequency n took photos throughout the walk to post on app . We and our dog are very happy and satisfied with Tomoko’s services. She is a friendly, reliable and safety conscious dog walker that we will get her service again as needed

Big thanks to Tamar who was such a huge help for our dog. Tamar has been an absolute blessing for our family and our senior dog, Benny. At 15 years old, Benny has a lot of special needs, including help getting up and down the stairs and extra patience as he moves through his day. Tamar was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive with him from the very beginning. Benny is usually very timid around new people, but Tamar’s warm and gentle demeanor helped him feel comfortable with her surprisingly quickly. She also kept us updated with great communication and sent the cutest photos during her visits, which gave us so much peace of mind. We are so grateful for Tamar and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and reliable dog sitter!

Juliana has been great to work with!! She’s caring and pays attention to detail when it comes to keeping up with training habits. She’s been walking with my 8 month old puppy but also ensures to show some love to my cat which I appreciate and I know he loves the attention too. Haha. I know my pet babies are in good hands!
