1. Dakota W.

“Dakota was friendly, flexible, and reliable. Sam always enjoyed his time with Dakota. Dakota interspersed neighborhood walks & trips to the dog park with visits to Barnes & Noble and other places. We will use Dakota again without reservation and highly recommend him to care for your pet.”


2. Lindy P.

“Lindy was a life-saver caring for our elder dog. She walked Maggie in the rain, double checked on other coverage, and sent photos of each visit. She is a very responsible caregiver and I could tell that Maggie felt very comfortable with her. I had several people checking in on Maggie due to scheduling conflicts and Lindy was supposed to be a "fill in" for us. I totally messed up the schedule and Lindy graciously covered my gaps. She even left me a "schedule template" I can use next time so I don't make errors. Next time I need someone to care for Maggie, I'll hire Lindy for the entire week if she's available. Highly recommended!”


3. Haley T.

7. Tamara T.
“Tamara and I worked together at the local SPCA, where I got to see her skills with animals firsthand. Tamara is so very passionate for animals, and always took a special interest in really connecting with the dogs and cats she encountered. She's knowledgeable about how to care for animals, and their physical and mental wellbeing is her number one priority. I would trust her to care for my own animals any day!”


8. Michelle B.

“Michelle was very accommodating, she was able to do a meet and greet the same day she responded. Teddy and Tigger loved their walk with her.”




9. Kyle & Meagan M.

“Kyle and Meagan were just the best! They went above and beyond for our pets and we couldn’t be happier. Will definitely book again! Thank you!!!”

About: Professional, experienced, loving, care for your pets and livestock at your home or farm, large and small, indoor and out. Customized service to fit you and your pets' needs. Home checks, extended visits and overnight stays are available. I have pets of my own. I have house sat for family friends and filled in for people at horse farms when they are out of town. I am available part time since I have my own farm. I am available 7 days a week I am flexible on hours. Please feel free to call me to figure out hours. Thanks Sadly I can not keep animals at my farm at the moment. I have dogs of my own and it is asking a lot of them for me to keep them here. I would love to take care of your animals at your home.


12. Victoria O.
“Tori is wonderful caretaker of my three dogs while I’m out of town. She’s very patient and attentive to the dogs needs. She doesn’t just feed them and walk for potty breaks, she truly engages with the dogs by petting and playing with them. I can count on Tori to make sure my furbabies are well cared for when I’m away from home.”


13. Lindsay G.

“Lindsay took lots of pictures and sent a detailed rover card each time she walked Loretta. It was great to see her updates and to know that Loretta was in good hands.”


14. Lydia J.
“Lydia is by far one of the most responsible individuals I’ve ever known. She puts as much loving and care into her own dogs as a mother should her own children. I 101% recommend her!”


15. Danielle B.
“She’s amazing with animals and works well with people. I work with her at a spa called love face body spa. She’s great with everyone”


16. Katie F.
“Katie is absolutely amazing! She has cared for my crazy little dog Maddy so many times, and has somehow been able to keep her calm which can even be difficult for me to do at times! My dog can be very specific with her needs, and Katie has listened to my instructions and also had a great intuition when it comes to Maddy which not everyone has shown. She has her own dogs too, so being a pet parent is something she brings to every dog she meets, not just her own. You can’t go wrong with Katie!!”


17. Lauren M.
About: I grew up surrounded by all sizes of dogs since I was 2. I have had 2 dogs of my own, a border collie and collie/poodle mix, as well as 1 cat! I love all animals and would love nothing more than to spend all my free time with them! I have a very flexible work schedule and am able to work from home a couple of days a week! I will have a lot of time to fit your needs into my schedule! I understand what it is like to let strangers into your home to take care of your pets and will do everything I can to make your and your friend feel comfortable. I love to take long walks, throw balls for hours, go for runs and spend time cuddling with tour furry friends. I would be happy to take care of your pet along or if you would like a friend to bring my dog along as well!

Because I love pets! Woof N Walk offers a multitude of services for a variety of pets. I can also handle various home services which, by making it appear that your house is occupied, can be a crime deterrent. Choose the schedule and services you want, and I'll do the rest. Pet services include: Feeding Walks: 30 or 45 minute Brushing Administration of medicine Litter box cleaning Transportation to vet or groomer Overnight and extended stays Home services include: Watering plants Bringing in newspapers/mail Turning on/alternating lights Opening/closing blinds Carrying trash in/out I am a mature, experienced pet care professional, I make taking care of your pet a personal priority, providing the best care your fur babies deserve. It is the only job I have. I do not offer in home boarding at this time. Safety is number 1 when I am in your home or are taking your fur baby on walks.


19. Kim O.
“I absolutely love this woman’s service! She has a heart of gold and has treated my dogs as if they were her own! She spoils them with hours of play and pets. She follows directions incredibly well and will ask questions and clarify if she doesn’t understand to avoid taking risks with the health or care of the animal. She is very respectful and responsible with my belongings for my animals and I love that she even cleans up after she is done! Highly recommend!!”
