3. Ashley F.
“Sam B. I have known Ashley for the better part of five years now, and she is the sweetest and kindest person I know. She always wants to do what’s best for everyone around her, even if it isn’t best for her. She is a deeply caring person and loves animals. I’ve met a lot of pets and animals that she has, and she is always attentive, loving and caring towards all of them and makes sure they all get sufficient attention.”


4. Lila P.
“I know Lila has cared for many types of animals over the years, at all hours and in all kinds of weather. I feel confident entrusting her with caring for my pets and I trust her in my home. Lila is a lovely young lady, patient, kind and very good natured. She is able to follow instructions, easy to deal with, cheerful and helpful. I have no problem recommending her services.”

“Excellent service. Best walker we ever had! Thanks again!”


6. Rebecka B.
“Rebecka has years of experience caring for dogs and cats with love! She is incredibly responsible, dependable, and cares for pets like they're her own. She is communicative with pet owners, asking questions to learn more about their pet (diet, activity, personality, etc) to provide the best experience for both the animal and the owner. I would highly recommend Rebecka to care for your pet!”


7. Elizabeth N.

“Elizabeth was great with our Deaux. Super communicative! She took lots of pictures and gave a very detailed report on Deaux’s visit. We will definitely book her again.”


8. Franciane B.
About: When I lived in Brazil, there was such a surplus of dogs in the area I was located and my family and I were the family on the block to rescue everyone we could. I work for myself and at the moment I am blessed to make my own schedule, therefore I could be free at any time of the day. My house is located in a nice quiet neighborhood with lots of yard for your fury one to run along with my Copper. I can crate yours if needed..


9. Tara D.
“She helped look after my mom’s friends dogs, Oakley, Levi, and Molly while she was out of town and Tara was very helpful. She visited the dogs every morning and night and always made sure they had all the food and water they needed and even texted us daily photos when we asked for updates. Would definitely book her again!”


10. John C.
“John Cacela is one of the finest young men I know. He is 100% reliable and honest. You would be very fortunate to have him working for you. He grew up with dogs and is very good with them. I am sure he would be just as good with any other pets.”


11. Maria V.
About: Previously a dog kennel attendant, I have a passion for animals! I have the knowledge to not only provide the best care for your furry friend, but I have the passion to learn and make walks fun for them! I have experience handling a multitude of animals, as I worked (and currently live) on a farm, owned horses, reptiles, etc! I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I am currently a student at Worcester State University, studying criminal justice! I have class for a few hours Monday-Thursday. My afternoons are free and Friday and weekends are completely open! I live on a farm and spend my time away from Rover haying the cows or running equipment :) I not only care for animals - I love them! Yes, even the grouchy ones! ❤️ It’s important to have patience and learn our furry friends, instead of rushing into something they may not be comfortable with. Because I have worked at a dog kennel, I have the ability to handle dogs of all temperaments.


12. Patty & LeeAnn S.

“Pat is a pro and a true animal lover. Her communication is on point!! I’d definitely use her service again.”


13. Jon D.
“Jon is great with animals. He has always been around animals so he had quite a bit of experience. Just right now he has two dogs and a cat. He is very responsible and flexible making him a perfect person to trust your pet with.”


14. Kayla C.

“Kayla is absolutely amazing! She's professional, reliable and is quite flexible with my crazy work schedule. I know I can trust her with my wild child, and my pup loves her back! We will definitely continue to rebook with her!”


15. Christine M.
About: I grew up with pets my whole life. A German Shephard, cats, parakeets, fish, turtles, chameleons, mice, and hamsters. I was also a dog walker for about 2 years around 15 years ago. I enjoyed those pups so much and miss doing it. My kids are in school most of the year and would love to do some drop in visits or walks while they’re in school. I’m sure they would love to come with me to snuggle with the pups, if that is ok, of course, while on their school vacations. I am a stay-at-home-mom whose kids are in school most of the year. So I will be available between 10am-2pm Monday through Friday. I’m hoping my two boys (7 and 9-years-old) will be able to join me if they have a day off or vacation weeks from school. They would love to pet and play with them. They love all pets. I always make sure the pet does not escape the house while entering or exiting the house. Would always use a leash if there is no backyard fencing. I would follow any instructions left about the pet as I know personalities and medical issues can be factors in keeping them safe. Photos of each visit for the client, if they wish, to give them peace of mind that their pet has been taken care of and is happy.


16. Julie D.

“Julie is amazing I would definitely recommend her for dog walking”


17. Erin H.
“Erin is amazing with animals! She is so caring and knowledgeable. I remember when she drove for days through different states to help transport a rescue dog. She is extremely responsible and loving. She’s one of the only people I would trust with my two energetic dogs.”


18. Bethany C.
“Bethany enjoyed a childhood which included playing with and caring for many puppies and dogs. She learned to train the dogs and became an accomplished Junior Dog Handler with the American Kennel Club. With over 20 years experience in TLC pet care, she is most highly recommended. Donna M”


19. Pamela S.
“Pam is an amazing dog / animal lover. She will take care of your fur babies like they are her own. She is very calm and gentle so if your pet is shy she is the right fit.”


20. Makonnen S.
“Makonnen has done amazingly well with our dogs. He has a special way of connecting with them. I notice that his nature and personality seem to be perfect for other dogs as well. Dogs seem to love him and have a special connection with him. He definitely has a unique way with them and they respond extremely well to his energy.”
