“Jason is a one of a kind dog walker! He is extremely knowledgeable about dog behavior and tending to obedience training. Our 9 month old Australian Shepherd requires a diligent, attentive, and assertive leader. When we met Jason for the first time, he was everything we wanted and more! Not only does he leave super detailed notes about her walks, but he cares for Luna with the same amount of love and attention as we do. We are so thankful we found him and our Luna is especially grateful! You will not go wrong if you choose him!”

About: I have over 25 years of experience taking care of dogs and cats. They have been a big part of our family. We have volunteered at pet shelters as well. I would love to help take care of your pets while you are away. I will treat them like family. I am available during the week after work or around lunch hours. I am always available on the weekends. I would like a few days notice. I will be very respectful of your home and make sure your pet is well taken care of. I am very clean and will clean up any messes.

“Jay and Lisette have been so good with walking Bunni and Sharki for a whole week, they are not only consistently on time and always walk them a bit more time than allotted, but also take the time to wipe their paws especially when it’s nasty outside. Would absolutely recommend them to others!”


“Melissa was great! My little Toby was obsessed with her the minute he met her and barely wanted to come back inside after his walk. She sent me frequent photos and gave me a thorough update when they returned.”


“Nicole is incredibly kind and patient with Bruce. She always communicates well and is thorough in detailing how her walk with him went. I can’t recommend Nicole enough!”

If needed, I can easily and comfortably crate your pups but they are welcome to be next to me on the sofa or wherever.

About: I have several years of experience in the biomedical research field where I took care of mice. Administering drugs was a daily task for me. I have also taken care of my romantic partners' pets throughout the years. I am vegan now for several years, so I am deeply committed to treating animals well. I just completed my first cat boarding service, and I discovered that I am very happy taking care of pets at home. I am excited to start hosting more pets! I work from home, so it will be convenient for me to care for your pet(s) throughout the day. I am a freelancer, so I make my own schedule. I can make my schedule around your pets' needs! I maintain a clutter free home where your pet(s) can run inside! There's plenty of light with windows in all rooms.

About: I’ve taken care of dozens of pets and completed over 1000 services including Sitting and dog walkings. That includes any dogs and cats with sick ailments and otherwise difficult parameters. I’ve also worked at a pet shop before so if you have a particular concern or need for a pet feel free to ask never hurts. I usually walk a mix of different dogs, depending on the week usually larger breeds that are difficult to handle, but I also work with smaller pets that are shy, including cats. I also deal with a sub category of pets that are on medication or older. I have experience with a number of different pets and medication along with certain ailments so feel free to ask me any questions you may have. When it comes to the settings, I usually go off instructions provided by the pet parent as specific as possible to avoid not meeting their requirements. I also tend to act very courteous as most pet parents have a camera so I’m always acting like I’m being watched on TV. It’s better that way, but if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

About: I’m great with communication and patience. I have experience taking care of small-big dogs for years whether it be for family members, my own and to even taking care of a bearded dragon for a few months for school. Nonetheless I do my research beforehand and offer a safe space for your pet with lots of room and privacy I currently work part time and do online school at my own pace. I’m free all week Monday-Sunday mornings-mid day. Late afternoons I take night shifts 3 days out of the week, but for the most part I am free. Communication is very much appreciated I offer an empty floor that no one resides in other than my cat who loves to roam around, in case you would want to separate your pet/s from my own. As I’ve mentioned, I have a gray female tabby(spayed) and a male golden retriever(not fixed).No matter the size my dog is open to playing and enjoys the company of other dogs but if you’d like me to crate or separate by any means, I am able to provide that. Only you know your pet/s best so I’m able to provide any adjustments you’ll need for them and their safety

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I had the joy of having a Pomeranian as my first furry companion, and over the years, I’ve fostered many dogs, each with their own unique personality and charm. Most recently, I cared for my senior dog, who was the sweetest and most loving soul. Losing him was heartbreaking, but it deepened my understanding of the unconditional love and care dogs especially for seniors bring to our lives. As life got busier, I realized how challenging it can be for dog moms and dads to balance work and giving their pups the attention they deserve. That’s why I’ve made it my mission to help! With my dog care services, I aim to provide love, care, and attention to your fur babies while you’re away. Every dog deserves to feel safe, happy, and cherished, and I’m here to make that happen for your four-legged family members. I am currently working part time while studying! Being with your pets not only helps you but me too! I miss my dog very much so I am very happy to help anyone fur babies when they need. I have the time to walk and play with your dog or cat (: At your home I’ll make sure they are comfortable with much pats on the belly! Very well taken care of! Making sure always on leash and picking up after them.
