“From my dog ARES’ responses, I know he likes Joshua and enjoyed the walking with him. He arrived on time and took care of Ares’ poop and pee-pee during the walk. I will book with him again in the future.”
“What can I not say about Tonya? She is amazing! A few of her wonderful qualities include; reliable, flexible, responsible, respectful, loving and punctual. Tonya is a great communicator. She always takes pictures and writes descriptions for each walk. Her descriptions are never the same. My dog loves her and is always excited to see her. You cannot go wrong if you hire Tonya.”

“She’s very responsive, flexible, and accountable. It’s nice to know that she will show up when she says she will! My dog has to wear a muzzle on property (I live in an apartment complex) and she has been able to handle it without issue. Also: I had three dogs over when she came for a meet and greet (two were my neighbor’s, two of the three dogs are… extra) and they all liked her and were happy to buddy up :).”

She pays attention to detail whenever she looks after our pets; I know they are in safe and trustworthy hands. She is always willing to communicate and work with me and my schedule to provide the best care for my furry little family. I cannot say enough good things about Denise and how much she has helped me! I will continue to use her services whenever I need help with pet care. Thank you for being amazing, Denise!!”
“Lauren was great with our 3 dogs. One of our dogs is an older lady, and Lauren treated her with care and made sure she felt safe. The other two dogs went on long walks each day that Lauren visited. Everyday we got pictures of their walk and a report on how it went. All of the dogs had a great time and were happy from all of the care and attention that Lauren provided!”

“Carter did a great job caring for Lucy! He was punctual, checked in with me often, asked questions about caring for my puppy as needed, and took pictures to share! I will ask for his help again!”
About: I have had a large array of experiences over the past 3-4 years I have been around others pets. Ive worked with dogs of all sizes and many, many tempers! I adore all their personalities and unique qualities. I have administered meds to dogs and made special accommodations according to owners instructions. I’m very conscious of how these animals perceive me and try to go in with a calm attitude. As a person with anxiety, I’m able to tell nervousness and unease, just like they are. I bring a positive energy to each and every dog I meet! I’m attending online university so majority of my days are free! All my classes are asynchronous so Im available whenever with prior notice. I can do reoccurring visits with a consistent schedule! I cannot take dogs or cats to my place of living because of my pets. But I’ll be sure to walk/play/exercise with your animals in any way they like.
“Bridgeth was great with my dachshund Lucy!! She was very attentive to her needs and very communicative with me about how their daily walks went. I appreciate all she did for my girl so much!”
About: I’ve taken care of my friends and family members pets on and off for about 5 years now. I adore animals and will take your dog on frequent walks. I’d say I’m a very kind person and your pet will be given all my love and attention! your pet will be put before myself at all cost unless there’s an emergency! :) my schedule is usually wide open and I’m a very energetic and awake person so your dog will be played with and given attention constantly! My friends or family members dogs might be at my home from time to time meaning your dog could have company depending on the day unless you think your dog doesn’t get along with others let me know. I have a deck they can play around on with a small backyard, there’s a locked gate so they can’t get out.
