“Paulette is awesome. She connected instantly with my two happy but high maintenance German shepherds, and I could see their positive response to her straightaway. Very professional and highly recommended!”

“Charlie is so thoughtful and responsive. He truly cares about the pets he is with and it is such a joy knowing that my dog is well cared for while I’m away. We can’t recommend Charlie enough!”

“Stephanie is absolutely fantastic! She is 100% reliable and went above and beyond what she was hired to do. I cannot recommend her highly enough and will hire her again when needed!! if I could give her 10 stars, I would.”

“Jim is the best! He walked my dog Carter 6 days a week for 6 months when I was recovering from a foot surgery. He was very consistent, very sweet and loving with Carter and made sure he got his exercise every day and lots of love and treats. Could not have gotten through the past 6 months without his help! Highly recommend.”

About: I walk 10,000 steps a day and would love to walk your dog the extra mile. I've taken care of pets my whole life and love to volunteer in local shelters. I can teach your dog a few tricks, get all their zoomies out with a nice run, and give them all the frisbee, ball, tug of war, hide and seek, etc. playtime that they might want. I can also provide extra care to older, post surgery, and/or disabled pets. I also have experience with birds, turtles, mice, frogs, and fish. Looking to build long term relationships with my clients and new pet friends. You can always reach me when I'm pet sitting if you ever have a question, I am always just a phone call away. I'm currently self employed as a small business owner and mostly working from home. My schedule is very flexible and I always make time for long walks anyway so pet walks fit well into my routine of things. I always make sure the pets have food and a fresh bowl of water. After that I like to build some trust with sniffs and treats, see if they know any tricks. Once the pet is comfortable it's time for a walk and/or playtime to get all the pent up energy out. I think playtime is the most happy time for pets so I always to engage in a few different kinds of games until I find one that they love. This way the pets are happy and comfortable and can happily nap for the rest of the day after we are done.
“Melanie does an amazing job with both of my dogs. They come back happy, exercised, and ready to relax which I greatly appreciate. I can tell the dogs love their time with her because they will bark out the picture window begging her to come back for more. Melanie is super attentive and willing to accommodate any schedule changes and additional asks, with excellent communication throughout. Highly recommended, and very thankful I was able to find someone my dogs love so much!”

About: Hi there! I grew up with a dog by my side, and my family had a beloved pup until last year. My kids have been begging for another, but for now, we’ve decided to channel our love for animals into caring for yours! My kids and I are here to provide plenty of attention, belly rubs, and care while you’re away. Think of us as the fun aunt and uncle (and cousins!) for your pets—plenty of playtime, snuggles, and treats (with your permission, of course!). We can’t wait to meet your four-legged family members! Between my husband, who works from home full-time, and me being a stay-at-home mom, there’s always someone here to care for your pet. Whether it’s playtime, potty breaks, snuggles, or just having company throughout the day, your furry friend will never be alone for long. Our flexible schedules allow us to provide consistent care, making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home. We have a spacious, fenced-in backyard, perfect for playtime and fresh air. Our neighborhood is also great for walks, offering plenty of safe and scenic routes. If your pet is crate-trained, I’m happy to accommodate that, but we also have the flexibility to let them roam freely in our home. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so whether they’re staying with us or I’m caring for them in your home, I’ll follow your routines and rules to make them feel as comfortable as possible.

“William has been very patient working slowly to earn Sully’s trust. We are still waiting for Sully to trust William to take him for his walk, but William continues to be gentle with his reproach.”

“Erika was great. As soon as my schedule gels I'll definitely book her again. She took the time to let Sunny get used to her and was able to cope with her high energy. I highly recommend her.”

“Rebecca was quick in her responses, great with our dog, and willing to do the extra for us on Christmas Day! Sincerely appreciate her work for our dog and family!!”

“Ella was a delight. She and Finn made fast friends and he was so excited when Ella was at the door. Ella was very conscientiousness and punctual. She took him on nice long walks and totally wore Finn out. I highly recommend her if you are in need of pet care.”

About: Currently not a pet owner and missing the company of a furry friend! My family included dogs and cats growing up and I have years of experience being a nanny to children and pets (Great Danes, doodles, dachshunds, golden retriever, etc). I work part time hours as a remote mental health therapist at home so my schedule is flexible. I love to go for walks during the day. I live in a condo that is in a safe and walkable neighborhood. I keep my home clean and comfortable and have a reliable car.
