1. Caitlyn C.
“Caitlyn was so pleasant and patient with our dog. She was conscious of salt on the side walks- made sure he did not step on it. She did not rush him and watched him like a hawk. We would def. have her walk Mango again. Mango appreciates you, Caitlyn!”
2. Mary C.
“Mary was great! On time and very professional. She did a fantastic job with my young puppy. I highly recommend Mary for anyone looking for help with their dogs.”
3. Kenny A.
“Kenny is great!!! Always on time and took great care of my pup. He even tried to help him learn to walk better on a leash. I am typically am the only one to walk my dog so was very nervous but Kenny eased my mind. Definitely will be using him in the future!”
4. Christopher B.
“Thank you so much Christopher for being so patient with our pup. Thank you for your kind and professional service!”
5. Stephanie S.
“Stephanie has always loved dogs! She takes her own dogs for long walks and hikes, she brushes and bathes them, takes care to see that they have ample water and prepares their food. She plays with the neighborhood pets and is community minded. Stephanie has run pet supply collections and brought the donations to the local animal shelter. Stephanie is dedicated, responsible and very organized and I feel that she would make a great dog caregiver.”
6. Michelle A.
“Michelle is a wonderful dog caregiver. She stayed with my dog for one week while I travelled internationally. Even without me asking her, she would check in with me every day and send my photos and videos of my baby boy, which really helped me feel less guilty because I could see how happy he was. Great communication too - she was responsive to my messages, and was very professional and was responsible with all medications, walking and eating times I requested. She was very warm with my dog from the beginning, which was so important because my dog has separation anxiety, but I could see right away that Michelle was very intuitive for learning a pet's behaviors and preferences. It's very obvious she loves animals and treats them with respect. From the first time she took care of him, he loved her, so it's a relief if I ever need to travel again, I can leave him in good hands. Since then, I have often asked her to walk him. She is flexible with my work schedule, which has been a tremendous help. He can pull a bit on the leash, but I have seen how patient she is with him and it has helped his habits a lot. I will definitely use her again in the future.”
7. Mirvat K.
“When considering someone to care for my dog Lady, Mirv was the first person who came to mind. She is dependable, compassionate, and trustworthy. I appreciate how she kept me informed with updates while I was away. Whenever someone asks me for a dog sitter recommendation, I always suggest Mirv for peace of mind.”
8. Shushma R.
“Hello, Shushma and her family is really awesome!! I took my dogs there and they were so comfortable at their home. They love pets and my dogs loved them. I would recommend them to anyone who wants a clean, safe and loving environment. You can definitely trust them with your pets you won’t regret it 😊”
9. Gabby P.
“Gabby took care of my Pit bull mix baby, Gemma!! She started caring for Gemma when she was just 5 months old. She took her on walks, played, and fed her. Additionally, Gabby took care of Gemma overnight many times. She was great and provided cute pictures and updates throughout the day. I would definitely recommend Gabby to walk/take care of your pet!”

13. Nancy W.

16. Mallory N.
“Mallory LOVES dogs and pets. She beams with a big smile when she sees one walking by or even on social media. She gets very excited and has to show me how cute the pup is. She is extremely kind and caring with them when she is around them. My neighbor's pup is a frequent visitor in our home since he was puppy. He is now in his senior years and she takes the time to sit with him, pet him, talk to him and make sure he always has his water. Another friend's dog, comes for frequent visits as well and Mallory loves to spend time with him playing, cuddling, walking him and taking endless adorable pictures of him. Mallory would be great choice for anyone looking for someone to care for their dog.”
17. Sarah R.
“Sarah was a big part of our Dobbler’s life. Sarah lived in our neighborhood and would help us whenever we needed support. Dobbker was so happy when Sarah came over to either walk him or care for him while we were away. I know that any dog who meets Sarah will feel the same way that Dobbler felt.”
18. Alexis B.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. It started off with my own - cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, ferrets, you name it! I now volunteer at a local animal rescue where I continue taking care of animals by feeding them, socializing them, administering medication to those who need it and providing them with a clean environment. I currently work a very flexible remote job that allows me to be available whenever my clients need me, with advanced notice of course :) I typically provide care in my clients homes, but when I have animals in my home, I fully make sure the place is safe, removing anything hazardous and I always provide the fur babies with all the love they need in their owners absence. I also make sure to provide photos and status updates!
19. Alexis R.
About: My fashion philosophy is “if you’re not covered in dog hair, your life is empty” I’ve been in veterinary medicine since I was in high school.. I’m very well versed with animal behavior/body language and am able to take care of special needs animals as well.. I’m certified in CPR if an emergency was ever to arise. Understanding each animal has their own unique personality and needs to be taken care of in their own spoiled way ❤️ I am available Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. I’m very flexible with schedules and am easy to reach.. I can accommodate mostly any time and request you have. Safety is most important, making sure your pet is taken care of on their walk, any food allergies they have or medications need to be given while away..

He did a wonderful job, demonstrating both patience and skill, and has taken excellent care of all his pets (2 dogs and 1 cat). Additionally, he has experience pet sitting for family and friends, showcasing his reliability and love for animals. I highly recommend Robert as he is dedicated, compassionate, and knowledgeable about animal care.”
