About: I've had a dog ever since I was 4 years old. I also used to own cats! I'm still working with and training my current 3 year old golden. I love dogs, cats, and pretty much every critter under the sun. I do my best to maintain patience and be a good human to my little guy, and every pet I meet in my day to day life. I have experience with elder dogs, elder cats and puppies and kittens. I also have experience with reactive and sensitive pets! I have a lot of free time! I work mainly part time and I would love to use some of my extra time to pop in and help out with your fur family. I will always defer to instructions left by the owner, I know nobody knows a dog better than its owner and I will make your comfort and your dogs safety an absolute priority of mine as long as I am in your home taking care of your pet.
About: Hi! I'm Eric, and I've been a dog lover all my life, I have experience helping my pets give birth to their offspring and feeding them with formulated milk at their earliest stage, and taking care of them to their senior years. I own two Shih Tzus named Piccolo and Didith. I often go to Van Saun Dog Park to give my own pets and other pet guests some exercise and feel the nature. My utmost priority is the SAFETY and COMFORT of my pet guests. Dog Boarding is overnight or 24hr. Stay. Doggy Day Care drop-offs are around 7-9 am, and pick-ups are around 4-6 pm. I am working online in the comfort of my home so they will not be alone and I will have plenty of time to play with your pups. Whenever I feed my pet guests, I separate them with baby fences, and during their playtime, I watch them closely to avoid any untoward incident.
“Craig walked our 75-pound husky-lab mix, Hondo. Hondo was very excited every time Craig came over. They had an automatic bond. Craig sent us photos before and after their walks. Hondo looked like one happy pup. We would definitely use Craig again and highly recommend him. Thank you, Craig, for taking such good care of our "baby."”
“An amazing dog walker who is punctual, sweet, loves dogs, and is very accommodating and respectful to the dog and family. She is highly recommended!! I give her 10⭐️’s.”
“Jeanne is amazing! Paris was timid at the first meet and greet, but absolutely adores Jeanne! She was very gentle and playful with Paris. She was on time and offered many pictures updates, as well as a nice summary of their walk! Paris can’t wait to see her again! ?”
“Jayvon, was an exceptional.dog walker. My dog doesnt get to comfortable with strangers immediately, but he was calm and gave her the tine tio adjust to him while still doing his job.

“Kerri has been wonderful! Her communication is excellent—she keeps us updated and is always responsive. We're so glad we found her and are looking forward to having her watch our pups when we travel. Highly recommend!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Peter! He was incredibly easy to work with and responded right away, even on short notice. Although we didn’t meet in person, we felt completely at ease thanks to clear communication and the videos we sent him in advance. Peter went above and beyond by sharing lots of great photos of our dog, Captain, during their time together—which really put our minds at ease. Captain absolutely loved him, and it showed! We’re so grateful for Peter’s care and look forward to booking with him again in the future. Highly recommend!”
About: I treat my dog as if he were my own biological son and I will gladly make sure your furry friends are as comfortable as possible when they’re with me. I have experience with medium to small dogs, old dogs, puppies, and cats with asthma. My love for animals goes so far back that I wrote in my Elementary school year book that my dream job was to be a Dog Walker when I grew up! I am currently in between jobs and have the ability to be more present and available for any animal needs throughout the day/week. If I were to find full time employment it would be remote work, so either way, I am always available to your furry friends ☺️ I want to keep your little ones on their usual schedule, doing things exactly how you typically do things. I will stick to any snack or food guidelines you have and will happily help with any medications or special needs required. I am very patient and understand that all dogs have different personalities just like us. My hope is that we will have some fun and get some daily exercise at the same time.
“Maia was great!! We reached out last minute for a walk and she was able to fit us into her schedule. While we did not get the chance to meet Maia beforehand, she was kind, responsive, and put our minds at ease. Maia followed the instructions we provided and was really great with our dog Fritz. She sent us photos and shared a thorough recap after the walk. We will definitely be booking Maia again in the future!”
“This was my second time booking with Camila And she’s great. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog with her, it is clear that she cares about all the dogs she walks. I will definitely always reuse Camila”
“Valerie decided to take on the task of walking Lenox last minute before a holiday weekend while he stayed with my mother in law. He was excited for his walks in the morning and clearly enjoyed his time with her. Would definitely book her again!”
About: I have had many pets before and I grew up around dogs. I had many dogs at home and I have much experience with them! I spend much time at home, with my kids who absolutely love dogs! I will definitely give your dog an unforgettable time at our home! I have a big fenced yard, where your dog will enjoy playing and receive much love (don't worry, they will definitely be pampered a lot)!
About: I have grown up with many kinds of animals. I dog sat 3 pitbulls multiple times and leash trained each of them. I trained all of my family pets. And I also worked at a veterinary hospital for 3 years and learned a lot about animal care. I am currently available Monday- Friday after 4pm, and Saturday & Sunday starting at 8am. I currently work at a hospital and hours may be subject to change I do not provide services in my home due to a pet policy in my complex. But I am available for services in your home. I can follow a schedule to fit your pets needs and provide them with lots of love and care.
“Andrea dog walked Cody on one day earlier this week (3 times during the day) and I couldn't be happier. Her communication was outstanding, plenty of photos and even documents how many times he pee-ed and pooped on each walk. She was accommodating when I had to adjust my schedule and was very reliable. She even washed out his dog food container when it was empty, which was beyond the call of duty. Andrea has a lovely manner, is very pleasant and eager to please. Would definitely work with her again.”

Jing was wonderful with Bailey. He was a little nervous today because it’s only a few days in our new apt, so he don’t finish his breakfast. Jing sat with him and hand fed him a couple morsels, helping him to feel comfortable and then he finished the rest on his own. I highly recommend Jing and will definitely use her again!
I can’t thank enough to scarlet. This was a last minute book due to a snowstorm and Scarlet was willing to accommodate me as I was stuck at work and unable to let my fur baby out. She was very responsive and took pictures while walking Lucas. Knowing Lucas was safe, warm, and able to get his walk gave me so much peace of mind. Highly recommended 💕💕💕
I cannot recommend my pet sitter Eleonora, highly enough! From the very first meeting, it was clear that she genuinely cares about animals and take her responsibility seriously. She was warm, patient, and incredibly attentive to every detail of my pet’s routine. While I was away, I received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me total peace of mind. It was obvious that my pet felt safe, comfortable, and well‑loved. When I came home, everything was spotless, and my pet was relaxed and happy—always the best sign of excellent care.
Karen was absolutely wonderful. She was very friendly, always showed up on time, and truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. She stayed in constant communication with both my wife and me, which gave us real peace of mind. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience — 10/10 would absolutely recommend Karen to anyone looking for reliable and attentive care.
I contacted Alexandra with just 2 days notice to walk my senior yorkie. She obliged and did a great job. Cody has some special needs as a blind and deaf senior dog and Alexandra listened and asked good questions during our video meet up. She is very sweet and is an animal lover for sure. I would definitely hire her again.
Ilda is a fantastic dog walker! She’s professional, kind, and always makes sure my dog comes back happy and tired after their walks. It’s clear she cares deeply about animals, and I trust her completely. If you're looking for a reliable and loving dog walker, Ilda is the best!
At my request, Gail arrived earlier than scheduled to pick up Simon. Simon was greeted with hugs and kisses! Unfortunately, Simon didn’t do well in the warmer temp and returned home panting heavily. Gail’s genuine concern for Simon was evident. She stuck around to make sure he was OK. Simon is OK!
