“The amount of communication provided by Elizabeth really put our minds at ease that our pets were getting the best care. The level of detail she provided is second only to how much care she gave our dogs. Will absolutely be hiring her again!”
2. Scott J.
“Our Dog took to Scott almost instantaneously! Which is very unusual as he is typically very timid and shy at first. Scott did a great job following instructions and had a great walk with little Carl! I would highly recommend Scott and we definitely will be using him again in the future!”

“Anna did such an AMAZING job taking care of my 3 cats while I went out of town! I have one who is very nervous around new people, and Anna was so sweet and patient with her as she adjusted to having a new face checking in. I felt so much better about leaving knowing they were in such great hands!”
9. Daniel D.
“I am thrilled to recommend Dan as a dog walker! Dan has walked my dogs on several occasions, and every single time, he has gone above and beyond my expectations. First and foremost, Dan is incredibly reliable. He is always on time and ensures that everything is handled with professionalism and care. His respect and attentiveness extend not only to the dogs but also to me as their owner. He communicates clearly, follows any specific instructions I provide, and even takes the time to give updates on how the walk went, which I greatly appreciate. What really stands out about Dan is how amazing he is with the dogs. My dogs absolutely adore him—they get visibly excited whenever they see him! He has a calm and friendly demeanor that instantly puts them at ease. Whether it’s a high-energy walk to burn off some steam or a leisurely stroll for my older dog, Dan knows exactly how to cater to their needs. It’s clear he genuinely loves animals, and they can sense it too. Beyond his skills as a dog walker, Dan is also just a great person to work with. He’s kind, respectful, and easy to trust, which is so important when it comes to entrusting someone with your beloved pets. I always feel confident that my dogs are in good hands when they’re with Dan. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dogs with the same care and love as you do, Dan is the perfect choice. I can’t recommend him highly enough!”

11. Trennedy K.
“Trennedy was awesome!!! Very responsible, easy to get in touch with and gave me great feedback on my dogs while I was away. She went above and beyond getting my older dog to eat his first few nights alone. She went the extra mile by bringing in my mail and feeding our fish too! Wonderful experience and will definitely be contacting her again in the near future. Thank you Trennedy, you’re a superstar.”
12. Cathy W.
“Cathy started caring for our black lab, Wendy, last week. She responded so quickly to my messages and was able to do a meet and greet within days of my first message to her! Our dog loves Cathy and it’s been going really well when Cathy comes to let her out at lunchtime. I would definitely recommend Cathy to care for your pet! She has a lab of her own and a lot of experience.”
13. Chase D.
“Chase was great with my two dogs. He was there promptly for my requested drop-ins and got my dogs playing and burning off energy. I would definitely use Chase again.”

15. Sawyer S.
“Sawyer is a responsible and loving pet caregiver. We trust her completely with our pets (two dogs and two cats). She is very caring and gentle toward the animals--offering walks (for the dogs), playtime and cuddles, and even administers medication when needed. When we go out of town, we feel 100% comfortable leaving our pet's in Sawyer's care. We know they will be very well cared for in excellent hands. If you are looking for a kind, compassionate, competent, responsible pet caregiver, please consider Sawyer--you will not be disappointed!!”
16. Helen H.
About: The Hunt family consists of Helen (me) Jon (train driving husband) and our son and daughter. I am a stay at home Mom/Artist with a 8 and 6 year old who are very accustomed to animals and very gentle. We have a ranch house that is open plan with hard wood floors and a huge fenced in yard. I have my own car to use for picking up and dropping off. We live 2 minutes from Melas Dog Park in a leafy neighborhood great for walking dogs. I grew up in rural England and have spent my life around animals. After dropping my children off at school I am home all day working on art projects and so your pet will have company and access to outside whenever needed. If your pet is on the introverted side we can always accommodate by setting aside a bedroom for alone time. Please know with us your most precious loved one is in safe and warm hands. In order to accommodate regular guests we can no longer board dog aggressive pets.
