“Emily is petite but handles my 100 pound GSD without hesitation. She had taken on walking him during my waiting and recovery from surgery and Cooper just loves her. He gets super happy when he sees her car pull up and waits outside after the walk to say his goodbyes as she drives off. I get multiple pictures of their adventures each walk. She’s been awesome! So grateful for her help”

“Jennifer is great! She is very reliable and communicates well. She takes extra care and time to make sure my fur buddy, Jake, gets the exercise and attention he needed while I was away for 3 weeks. I’m very happy and appreciative for Jennifer’s care and support. I will ask her again to take care of my dogs in the future. 👍🏼😄”

“Arianna has been a wonderful help to my two dogs for the last two weeks. She’s punctual, easy to talk to and manages my now 4 month old puppy extremely well. I highly recommend her services.”

About: I’ve worked with dogs as young as 8 weeks to as old as 15 years. I’ve also worked with dogs as small as a chihuahua to as big as a poodle. Im a college student and have some flexibility in my schedule but working weekends is the best time to pet sit, however if you message me about a specific time during the week id love to see if we can work something out. I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for pets, whether I’m in their home for a drop-in visit or staying overnight. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, medications, and routines, so pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar surroundings. Safety is my top priority. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and I make sure pets are never left in unsafe situations. I also respect my clients’ homes as if they were my own, keeping things tidy and secure while they’re away. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing both their pets and their home are in trustworthy hands.
“Jordan is awesome! Knows how to handle big, strong-willed dogs very well. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing pet care. He is my go to guy from now on. Dependable, trust-worthy and honest.”

“Met Ken for a combination meet & greet (for dog boarding) and dog walking for our 65-lb husky mix boy, Cucumber. Ken brought his English bulldog, Jabba, along and both dogs walked and played great together. I appreciate that Ken doesn't discriminate against certain breeds and wasn't freaked out by the vocal play style of the dogs.”

About: I have grown up with dogs for as long as I can remember. My mom was a poodle breeder and I would help her take care of puppies and play with them. If they ever got sick I was able to help with shots and keeping them clean. I also have house sat with my grandmas pets, two have diabetes so I also know how to give shots if needed. I also have experience feeding animals specific foods and amounts. I love animals and get along with them greatly. I also care deeply about making sure your animals feel comfortable and happy. I enjoy walking my three dogs so I figured I could walk other peoples dogs and make some extra money while enjoying spending time with them.

I’m very happy and appreciative for Jennifer’s care and support. I will ask her again to take care of my dogs in the future. 👍🏼😄

Christina was an absolute delight to work with. She was very responsive in communications and easy to contact. She took the time to meet with our dog and get the know him. During the walks we received photos and a very detailed description of our dogs activities, including interactions with other dogs. She was a joy to work with and very flexible in meeting with us before and after our trip. We would highly recommend her services!
