5. tanya R.
“Tanya did a great job taking our boxer Nala on daily afternoon walks. She was great at communicating any changes in her schedule with me, flexible to meet my needs to care for Nala, and always polite and professional. Thank you so much for you help Tanya! It was comforting knowing that Nala was in good hands while we were away.”
6. Cassie F.
“Cassie has helped us our multiple times with our yellow lab, EmmyLou. We couldn't have imagined anyone better than Cassie to watch over our pup while we were at work or out of town for a long weekend. She is very trustworthy and responsive, always texting pics of whatever adventure her and Emmy would get into. Cassie even bought a toy for our dog to remember her by! My wife and I cannot recommend Cassie enough!”
7. James H.
“James is an excellent pet caregiver. He is a very kind, thoughtful, and compassionate individual which is shown through his love of animals. When caring for my dog, he sends updates on how the day is going and shares pictures and videos. I always know my dog is safe and happy when I leave him with James.”
8. Eileen T.
“As a dog owner, it's hard to find someone you can trust with your furry family member, but Eileen has been nothing short of amazing! She has been walking my pittie for the past year, and I couldn’t be more satisfied. Eileen goes above and beyond to ensure each walk is enjoyable, safe, and tailored to my dog’s needs. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and attentive dog walker!”

11. Jana W.
“Jana continues to be the most reliable and thoughtful walker for my elderly dog, Mochi! She is always considerate of my old girl's needs.... taking it slow when it is hot out and making sure that Mochi gets to sniff and roll in cool grass (her favorite activity!) My dog clearly loves her visits from her favorite auntie, Jana!”
12. Ivy Z.
“I highly recommend Ivy for any and all pet sitting duties! She has been caring for my labrador retriever for the past five years during my frequent traveling and work trips, and I always feel completely at ease knowing my dog is in capable hands. Ivy always goes above and beyond, and she takes them to outings often like to park and lakes! I also love that my dog gets along really well with her border collie and they are best buds.”
13. Denise D.
“Words can’t describe the feeling of knowing your little one is in safe hands, and those safe hands are Denise’s. Denise has watched Kenzie a handful of times for me and I swear Kenzie loves her more than me! Always super responsible, responsive and beyond caring. Can’t recommend Denise enough!”
14. Gemma C.
About: I’ve had dogs for my whole life. I have trained my dog, took care of old dogs, big dogs, and taken many dogs for walks! I work a part time job as a waitress so I am very flexible and can walk and take care of dogs whenever you want! My house is very pet safe we have treats, a big backyard, and I am a very clean person and will keep animals very safe! I currently am in online school and waitress two nights a week. I waitress from 4-9 on those nights. Other than that I am very flexible, I can provide however many walks and feed times as you want! My house is great for dogs, I have a big back yard plenty of windows and all food and small items are kept away from pets!
15. Abbey S.
“Abbey has been so great with our puppy Murphy! She was very kind and flexible with our work from home schedule. Will definitely book her again!”
16. Karin L.
“Karin is a caring and knowledgeable pet caregiver. Dedicated, communicative, and pays attention to detail! Karin has proudly cared for her pets as well, has volunteered in animal shelters, and can be trusted with different pets.”
17. Lisa C.
“Lisa is great!”
18. Justin S.
“Justin worked miracles with my cat! My cat has a temper but Justin was very patient with him. I left my cat with Justin for a week and by the time I came back it seemed as if my cat loved Justin more than he loves me... Justin would make sure to let me know my cat's behavior every day (such as how much he ate, how much he drank, how much he slept...) and I found that very helpful because it helped me keep track of my cat's health. Overall, Justin is the best sitter I've had so far and I would definitely ask for his help again in the future!”
19. Kendra M.
“Kendra is our go to dog walker if we ever need any last minute help. We don’t usually have much luck when it comes to hiring dog walkers as our dogs take a little while to warm up to other people, but our two dogs feel very comfortable around her. Would definitely recommend!”
20. Karin H.
“Karin was absolutely amazing with my animals! She is very responsive and a joy to work with. My dogs loved her from the very beginning, and she was wonderful with them. It’s really great to be able to come home to very content fur babies.”
