2. Monique P.

“Monique took excellent care of our pup! Her communication was excellent, and we came back to a very happy doggo (who without company is usually anxious when we return). Cannot recommend her highly enough.”


3. Jessica W.

“Jessica‘s walked my dog several times now. She always shows up exactly what time she says she will be there and does a great job with my dog. I’ll be using her more in the future.”


4. Emma J.
“Emma has been my go-to dog sitter for several years for my Golden Doodle, Basco. Emma clearly loves dogs and Basco gets tons of TLC in her care. During her stay Emma sends lots of pictures of a Basco enjoying walks in the park or playing with his favorite toys. Knowing he is happy makes vacation so much better. I highly recommend Emma!”

“Blythe was great! My dog can be nervous with new people and she went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable with her and well taken care of.”


7. Lierin R.

“Lierin is a life saver! We have a 3 yr old lab as well as a new puppy who she treats as if they are her own! We feel so much more comfortable while at work and she’s with them! We’ll definitely be booking her again!”

“Avery is very sweet and attentive to Goldie. She can over early in the first walk to sit and slow Goldie to get comfortable with her. Loved all the photos and feedback about my dog.”

“Amanda was very responsive, responsible, and on it!! She sent me pictures during her walk with my dog so it made me feel at ease while I was out of town.”

“Emmalee has taken the time to get to know our dog and he has taken to her very quickly and he is a very sensitive soul so that speaks volumes! Really happy and relaxed knowing she is caring for him, would definitely recommend.”


11. Rachel K.
“Rachel goes above and beyond in the care of her cat because she loves her so much. She makes sure her kitty gets plenty of play time every day. Rachel has always been that way with any pet she's had. She is very responsible and can be counted on to show up and get things done the right way.”

“Sophie is great! A dog and cat lover. She is easy to work with and my dog loves her. Sophie is sweet and assertive which is a perfect combo for watching my giant goldendoodle. Highly recommend her.”

14. Brittany T.


“Brittany was able to help us on short notice with walking our dog while we were both sick. Her prompt communication made things very easy. Our dog can take some time to warm up to people but was immediately happy and comfortable with Brittany, which is not always the case. We'll certainly be repeat clients!”


15. Taylor H.

“Taylor was so good with my Kona girl. So attentive and I know Kona enjoyed seeing her these last few days for a daily walk.”
