Maddie was great! She responded very quickly, and arrived a few minutes early for the walks. She was great with the pup and he was happy to go with her. Will definitely be reaching out again the next time I need help with the dogs! Thank you ?

About: Dog care isn’t just a job or hobby for me; it’s truly a way of life! With over 10 years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds, I’m comfortable working with everything from sweet cuddle bugs to reactive dogs. For pups who prefer their own space nowhere near other dogs, outdoor kennels are available, and I also offer indoor boarding for everyone else. My home sits on fenced acre of pasture perfect for running and playtime, along with several smaller, securely fenced areas for safe enrichment and exercise. I’ve spent more than a decade training, competing with, and breeding German Shepherds in schutzhund, and I actively help coach a competitive obedience club. Building a strong, trusting bond with every dog I work with is incredibly important to me, whether they’re my own or a dog I’m helping train or care for. Dogs are part of my life 24/7, and I would love the opportunity to provide attentive, loving care for your furry family member while you’re away. 🐾 I work from home and am available 7 days a week for dog boarding. Meet & greets are not required to book with me. If you'd like to do one, they are a quick 5-10 minute meeting outside of my house. Your dog must remain on leash during the meet and greet and are not allowed to potty unless you have provided vaccine information or already booked with me. Fully fenced home and pasture with multiple smaller fenced areas as well. Commercial grade outdoor kennels available for escape artists or reactive dogs. Indoor boarding for non reactive dogs with crates for if I need to leave the house to ensure everyone's safety and no mischief making. For safety, dogs are crated overnight. Meet & greets are not required to book with me. If you'd like to do one, they are a quick 5-10 minute meeting outside of my house. Your dog must remain on leash during the meet and greet and are not allowed to potty unless you have provided vaccine information or already booked with me.

About: I offer a unique blend of high energy adventure and structured, patient care. As an avid mountaineer and hiker, I’m the ideal match for high-energy dogs who need more than just a walk around the block; I love taking pups on local trails where they can truly explore. Beyond the trails, I have significant experience fostering animals, which has taught me how to read body language, manage transitions, and provide a calm environment for pets who might be nervous in a new space. My home is a dedicated 'maker' space where I’m constantly improving the environment, so you can rest assured your dog is in a secure, well-maintained, and supervised setting. Whether your dog is a senior who needs a quiet spot to nap or a young pup with energy to burn, I have the experience to make them feel right at home. My daily routine is built around active engagement and consistency. We start the day with an energizing morning walk followed by breakfast and a dedicated rest period. Since I spend a significant portion of my day at home, I can provide frequent potty breaks, backyard play, and constant companionship. Evenings are reserved for calm winding down and plenty of attention before bed to ensure everyone feels settled. Safety is my non-negotiable priority. My home is a fully pet-proofed environment with secure entryways and strictly supervised common areas. I maintain a 'paws-on' supervision policy, ensuring pets are never left unattended with unfamiliar toys or in new spaces. I believe trust is built through transparency, so I provide daily photo and video updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing.

We feel incredibly lucky to have found Willow and Tina as our dog walkers. They are attentive, friendly, and truly understanding of what both we and our dog need. From the very beginning, they communicated with us so clearly and consistently, taking the time to really understand our instructions and preferences. It’s clear they genuinely care, and that level of attention gave us confidence right away. Since we live in an apartment, there are a few extra steps and details involved for walks, but they were more than happy to go through everything with us and make sure it all worked smoothly. They were patient, flexible, and always willing to do what it takes to make things easier for everyone. When they first met our dog, he loved them instantly, which meant so much to us. It’s not always easy to trust new people with your pet, but they made that transition feel effortless. From day one, they made our dog feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. When we both started jobs that required us to be back in the office, we were really worried about leaving our dog home alone for long periods of time. Willow and Tina completely took that stress away. They stepped in with so much care and professionalism, and now we don’t worry at all knowing our dog is in such good hands. They’ve also gone above and beyond in moments that really mattered. When our dog was sick, they took such thoughtful care of him and kept me updated throughout the day. Getting those updates while I was at work was incredibly comforting and reassuring. Our trust in them has grown so much over time, and we feel genuinely relieved and grateful every single day. It gives us so much peace of mind knowing our dog is not only being looked after, but truly cared for. Our family is so lucky to have found Willow and Tina, and we couldn’t recommend them more.

Marisol is a sweetheart! My dog can be a little temperamental with new people, as far as willingness to walk. Marisol played with him when that was the case, and she took great pictures! When we came back he was very relaxed. Initially she brought someone with her in the house, but communication about it was quick and pleasant. We will definitely rebook her.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was about 10 years old and have always loved being around animals. I have experience walking, feeding, playing with, and giving medication to dogs, including helping care for my neighbors’ dogs as well. I also have two cats, so I’m comfortable around both dogs and cats. I’m willing to help in any way I can and can’t wait to meet your pet! I just graduated from college and moved back home so I am able to help whenever you need. I am also very flexible and can work around your schedule! I always make sure pets are in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they feel cared for and relaxed. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, and any specific needs or preferences the pet may have. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship while their owners are away.

Yaisa was awesome for walking Toko and Arya when I was away at work during the day! She showed up on time and would take them for a nice long walk through the neighborhood. My pups were surprisingly well behaved with her and I loved all the pictures she would send me! They always looked happier on days after she visited. I will definitely book again when I need someone to check in with them if I'm out on a day trip or any long work weeks.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up with both cats and dogs and developing a deep, natural connection with them. I cared for and trained my own dog for 15 years, and after his passing, I adopted a close friend’s dog, who I now love and care for as my own. My experience includes working with dogs of all ages and needs from energetic pups to senior dogs requiring extra patience and support. I’m comfortable administering medication, preparing specialized meals based on dietary needs, and ensuring each dog gets the right level of exercise, structure, and attention. I treat every dog as if they’re part of my family because I know that’s exactly what they are to you. I work from home therefore, your pup will have all my attention! Walks are done every three to four hours in a day. Food is given based on your scheduled requirements. Since I have a dog of my own your pup will have a partner to play with! There's a dog park near by for them to run and play in as well.

I am a university student on break so I have no other obligations. I can stay overnight as well to keep your pet company.

I was really impressed with James. He took our two dogs on a morning walk and our puppy actually came back tired. James was fully capable of walking two big, energetic and excitable dogs. Sadie and Maverick were so happy when they came back from their walk. James clearly loves animals and has a kind and gentle demeanor around them.
