“First time working with Kelsey. Would definitely hire her again to walk and take care of our pups. She was punctual kept us posted and even towel dried them back at home after being caught in the rain during their walk. She was perfect!”


“Marli has been taking our dog on weekly walks for several months and she has house-sat for us on multiple occasions as well. She has been absolutely wonderful to work with since Day 1. She is quick to respond, always prompt, and most importantly, our dog really enjoys spending time with her. We have a large dog that has medical needs and she can sometimes be difficult when getting to know new people. Marli demonstrated tremendous patience and kindness with her and she was able to gain her trust as a result. We are incredibly grateful for that. We would HIGHLY recommend Marli to anyone looking for a kind, passionate, and highly communicative caretaker for their pet. Thanks Marli :)”

About: I cared for my Bichon Frise, for 13 wonderful years. During that time, I also enjoyed walking my neighbors’ dogs alongside him, which gave me experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities. Through all the walks, park visits, playtimes, and daily routines, I gained a deep understanding of what it takes to keep a pet happy, healthy, and loved. My best friend passed away in 2024, but I still find a little bit of him in every dog I take care of. I’m reliable, patient, and truly passionate about animals. Caring for pets brings me so much joy, and I always make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved, just like they’re my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! As of now I am very flexible with my schedule at the moment I am taking the time and going to enjoy traveling the world as much as I can and making a little extra money and getting to meet new pets would be a bonus for me ! I have done a couple drop in visits for friends & family pets and I always make sure to follow their instructions and never hesitate to ask when I don’t know something so everything goes smoothly as best as possible. I love animals I would always make sure they are cared for and kept safe at all times !
“I can't say enough about how wonderful Mykaela and her mom have been. They take such GREAT care of Ruby. From all the pictures I get , I can see how happy she is. Thank you for showing her so much love!”

About: I used to walk around my dog a lot and my friend's dog as well. I normally follow the instructions of the owners, and I also try to bond with the dogs and play with them. I'm normally very patient. I always want to have a good relationship with the owners where they can trust me as much as I can trust them and to reassure that I always prefer to stay in contact with the owners to make sure the communication is flowing right. A bit of my background, I used to take care of my dog for over a year and then we had to send him to Indiana, his name was Boomer and he was a shiba inu. We sent him away due to the fact my parents had the fear his shedding fur could make my new born niece allergic. So to avoid that scenerio we sent him to Indiana. However, to this day i get updates about him and how much bigger he's gotten.
“Emily was great with my dog Emmy! Emily is trustworthy, which makes leaving Emmy easier. Emmy loves being able to spend time with someone throughout the day and it is clear that Emily loves animals.”
