“Ann was so communicative! She asked great questions and made feel so confident in taking care of Beau. Left a great walk summary and I would recommend her to anyone!”


8. Kyle S.

“Our dog has a lot of anxiety and fear because of a very troubled past. After years of working with and understanding him, we have developed a protocol for him to give to friends, that if they follow, we can all but guarantee that Zuko will love them. Is the protocol super extra? Yes, but who isn't extra for their baby? Kyle was extremely understanding and followed every instruction we gave him to a T (which is more than we can say for many of our friends). He was also not afraid to ask questions and clarification which we greatly appreciated. He was patient, kind, nonjudgmental, and was very happy and excited to get to know Zuko. We're excited to start working with him and could not recommend him enough.”




9. Jennifer L.


“Jennifer was fantastic! Both dogs loved having her walk them. Can’t thank Jennifer enough for giving the dogs the attention they needed while we were away from home for the day.”




10. Michelle S.


“Michelle did an excellent job. When we first met, she took notes about my requests. She followed my directions precisely and took excellent care of Myla. I received updates before, during, and after Myla's walk and she left very thorough notes on the visit card. I highly recommend Michelle.”


11. Stacey S.

“Stacey was great!! She even spent extra time with Stanley.”


12. Jenny P.


“Jenny is wonderful! My puppy warmed up to her right away. She asked a lot of questions about him and came prepared with treats, poop bags, and water. She took him on a walk nearby and when they returned home he was all tired out. Thank you!”


13. Polyanna N.

“Pollyanna was a good communicator and we appreciated her help!”


14. Grace C.
“Grace is truly one of a kind! She takes such incredible care of my dogs, Rufus and Sully. She’s treated them like her own from the very beginning. Rufus has a calm, wise, almost sophisticated presence, while Sully is our high-energy powerhouse with a big personality. Grace adapted to their very different needs so naturally. She gave Rufus the gentle attention he thrives on, while matching Sully’s enthusiasm with play, structure, and patience. Her timing was always spot-on. She refreshed their water multiple times a day, and somehow left the house cleaner than she found it. I could tell they both felt safe and loved. Rufus was peaceful, and Sully was overjoyed. It’s rare to find someone so trustworthy, intuitive, and kind. I honestly can’t imagine a better person to care for them!”


15. Ryan G.


“Ryan is prompt and reliable, and Beau loves walking with him. Beau is always calm when we get home. He's looked after Beau many times and our first pick when we need a dog walker.”


16. Valentino C.
About: Growing up, I was raised around dogs. Walking dogs is something that I enjoy doing. I will make sure to take good care of your animals and communicate often! I am good with active & senior dogs. I work part-time and go to school full time. On my free time I am available to go on walks and/or runs with your dog. I am happy to do drop-ins, walks or house sit. I will do my absolute best to help your pet feel comfortable and joyful! I can take your dog for a walk around the neighborhood, walking paths or even dog parks.


17. Paula R.

“Paula was amazing! I know our little guy can get unsure meeting people, by his tail wags he was happy to see her! She was very understanding, accommodating, and showed lots of love to Harvey! She took care of him at our home and at her house. From the pictures he looked like he was in a resort getting sunshine! Highly recommend her she is super caring and nice! Thank you Paula!”


18. Maryrose A.
“MaryRose is one of the most responsible people I know, and a fantastic dog caregiver. She is excellent at setting dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds at ease; my family has four dogs, and they all adore MaryRose. She is detail-oriented, so she is excellent at dealing with a variety of dogs' needs, including dietary and walking requirements. She is also very kind and loving to them, and everyone obviously has a wonderful time. I highly recommend her as a dog caregiver!”


19. Ruthanne F.

“Ruthanne is so wonderful with our young pup! We can always trust her to take good care of our puppy while on walks; she makes our puppy's day!”


20. Robert N.

“I will definitely be booking Robert again, and highly recommend him to anyone! I was luckily enough to book him fairly last minute, and he was kind and willing to help. He walked my dog Daisy twice a day for a two day period. He always took daisy on her full 30 minute walk, and was very communicative, which I really appreciated. Additionally though, my lovely neighbor was telling me a few days later how she had loved talking to Robert. Unbeknownst to me, they had struck up a really nice conversation. It means something when you like your dog walker, but when your neighbor is raving about them, it means even more!”
