“Amazing attention to detail. Our little one loves walk times. She gets such good care. Would highly recommend. Michael and Lisa love what they do and they do it amazingly!!!”
“Michelle is an absolute gem of a dog walker! From the moment she met my Guster, I knew we were in good hands. Her genuine love for animals is clear in everything she does — from the way she greets Gussy with enthusiasm each visit, to the thoughtful updates and photos she sends after every walk. Michelle is dependable, professional, and truly treats Guster like her own. My dog lights up when she sees Michelle, and I have total peace of mind knowing hes being cared for with such kindness and attention. Rain or shine, Michelle always shows up with a smile and ensures my biy gets plenty of exercise, playtime, and love. Finding someone you can trust to care for your animal as you do is no small thing, and I’m incredibly grateful to have found Michelle. If you’re looking for someone who’s reliable, caring, and simply amazing with dogs — look no further. Michelle is the best!”
“We had Kerri walk our dog Honey twice a day while we were away for five days. She was excellent, always prompt, and Honey loved her walks. She was communicative and sent pictures and updates, which we appreciated. We definitely recommend her and will use her again!”
“Madison is great! Great communication, followed all the steps needed to properly walk Enzo and went above and beyond to ensure my dog was taken care of. The photos provided during the walks were a nice touch and shows that Madison provides high quality customer service!! I would highly recommend Madison and would definitely use her services again in the future.”
“Ashley has been very reliable and communicates very well. She’s great with my dog Captain going beyond her expectations. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their pup!”

About: I’ve worked at a Veterinary Hospital for 32 yrs, raised/trained more than 15 puppies to be service dogs & have been doing Animal Assisted Therapy since 1993. I recently retired from working 32yrs at a Veterinary Hospital and now I have plenty of time to spend with my dogs and your pups! My home is clean and dog friendly with a fenced in backyard to play fetch. Dogs are allowed on the couch and my lap (small dogs plz) and there are plenty of toys and dog beds for resting:). I also have baby gates if a dog wants alone time.
About: Looking for the perfect person to care for your pet this summer? Look no further! My name is Justine and I have been caring for pets my entire life. Walking, exercising, basic grooming, training, I do it all! When your pet is with me, I will care for him/her as if they are my own. Communicating with you about all your petcare preferences, I will assure you that you can be at ease leaving your little love behind. Furthermore, I will update you with pictures of all your pets snuggles and adventures! I have experience with all kinds of pets, all ages, dietary restrictions, special needs, etc. My own dog, Oaklin, I trained to be a therapy dog and he used to work with me at a school. He is extremely friendly and if you are booking for your dog, he would love to tag along for a puppy play date (which is excellent for socialization and helps ease separation anxiety). Please let me know if you would like to book Oaklin as well for your dog's drop-in visit or walk. I always bring Oaklin on overnights with me, as I am a single dog mom myself. From June 28-August 8th I have open availability! Currently, I am a teacher, so I'm only available 5 PM or later on weekdays, and occasionally on weekends until June 28th. . I have cared for pets with varrying energy levels, ages, training, interests, and health conditions. When I care for your pet, I will treat it as if it is my own. I will be an extention of you while you are away to keep things as normal for your pet as possible. Let's chat about your pets needs and figure out what works best for your pet.
“My dog was a little shy, and Daniela took the time to make him comfortable and got him out for a walk. She was very patient and updated me throughout. Thank you!!”
“Christiana was great. She did everything we asked for and handled Jax perfectly. Great communication and always on time.”
“She is actually a close neighbor and wow she’s amazing…spent longer than required and really loves my Rocket Man! She’s great and the dog loves her as well after two days!”
“Amanda is so sweet and perfect with our dog and cat. The dog can be quite nervous, but her calm demeanor meant that they became fast pals. Amanda walked him a bit longer than she had to and lavished us with tons of adorable photos. She asked thorough questions to make sure that his medication was properly dispensed and about his routine to make sure he was behaving normally. I cannot recommend her more!”
About: I served in the Marine Corps for the last 5 years and received an honorable discharge, hopefully that can put you at ease as a starter. I have 2 80+ lb German Shepards and absolutely love dogs. I've had a dog since I was 13 and have always been the closest one to the dog. I always feel a special bond. Any kind of special care you want I will make happen. I treat my 2 as if they were my children and love them to death. I will give your pet the same love I do for my own and promise they will love me. I've never had someone's pet not love me. Even my parents new dog that I didn't know for her first 2 years of life learned to love me very quickly. I work as a full time k9 handler, my work dog does bomb detection so between work and home I am always with dogs. I work with my k9 from 4/5 in the morning to 12/1 Tuesdays to Saturdays and off Sunday and Mondays. I can be pretty flexible after that. My apartment is pretty full with my three, but I am more than able to get to your dog for anything you need for them just tell me a little what their routine looks like so they can be as comfortable as possible.
About: Animal lover and bestie since before I could walk! My house growing up felt like a zoo with 10 cats, 3 dogs, 2 guinea pigs, and my older brother's snake. All those personalities shaped my love for every animal! I’m currently in school full-time at the Fashion Institute of Technology! When I’m not in classes, my schedule is pretty clear to fill up with all the fur babies! For clients, I follow their detailed instructions regarding feeding schedules, medication, and any specific needs or routines. If they’re in my home, I have a separate room where I let the newcomer relax for a few hours before slowly introducing them to my friendliest animals first.

I live in a safe and secure apartment building w/ lots of spaces outside to keep your pup happy and engaged in the day and secure at night.

Bernadette B.
“I’ve seen my friend Bernadette work absolute magic with animals. She’s a total natural when it comes to caring for pets of all kinds. Whether it’s taking dogs on walks, playing with them, giving them belly rubs, or just curling up for cuddle time, she does it all with genuine love and patience. She has a great sense of each animal’s personality and always adjusts her approach to make them feel comfortable and happy. Treat time is always fun and structured with her, and she never misses when it comes to routines or special care instructions. The same goes for cats and all indoor pets she’s gentle, attentive, and always makes sure they feel safe and cared for. Bernadette has a calm energy that animals seem to really respond to, and it’s clear how much she enjoys spending time with them. Any pet in her care is not only safe, but also truly loved.”

Thank you so much Crystal! You have no idea how helpful and appreciative we are that you come and care for Mick and take him on walks 🤍 I love reading your long, details notes from your time together, when I read them I smile and enjoy the pictures even more! Thank you for being the best to Mick 😊🎉
Jessica has taken great care of feeding & walking Luke while we attended events off the island for an evening. She is dependable, reliable, trustworthy & enjoys our dog. It was always a stress free evening knowing he was in such good care. I’d highly recommend Jessica & her services for anyone selling pet care.
She is actually a close neighbor and wow she’s amazing…spent longer than required and really loves my Rocket Man! She’s great and the dog loves her as well after two days!
Don't hesitate to book Delaney. She was very responsive to our lab Koda and put his interests first . She checked with me to see if she should walk him with ice and snow storm because she was concerned about the salt on his feet. Great service!
Shannon came for a meet and greet with my anxious pups and was so patient with them. She came back for a walk and did so well getting them settled. Thank you Shannon!
Brett was absolutely amazing with our boy, Tex. I had to go away for a weekend and the person I had set up to walk Tex had to leave town (my fiance was able to care for him but is diabled so couldn't walk him) so I was in a bind. I signed up on Rover and found Brett. She met with Tex before I left and she was amazing. THEN...another friend who was going to walk Tex, suddenly became sick and had to cancel a few walks (I was already 8hrs away and panicking). Brett stepped in last minute and covered those walks too! I don't know what I would've done without her!
