“I had the pleasure of hiring Esther to provide walks for my two dogs. I could tell that she would be great just the way my dogs bonded with her right away. In fact, my Toby waited for her at the door every day and Riley spun around as he was so happy to see her. Esther was responsive (literally within minutes), thoughtful, and catered to my dogs’ needs. I would definitely hire her again 😍.”
“Mark has been walking Sancho consistently for a year now and I would not hesitate to recommend his services. If he’s in your area, don’t look elsewhere and book him for your pup. Looking forward to another year!”
“We booked Leah to walk our dog and she did a great job! Our dog is shy and scared of strangers, but Leah was very patient with her. Leah managed to get her on the leash and took her out for a walk. We will definitely rebook Leah!”

About: I've always been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends because of my deep love for animals. Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds—from small companions like Shih Tzus to energetic working dogs like Belgian Malinois. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra care and patience. One of the oldest dogs I’ve cared for was a 16-year-old Pit Bull who required special attention, and gentle handling. What sets me apart is my calm and intuitive approach with every animal I meet. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, whether it’s high-energy playtime or slow senior strolls. I'm also attentive to behavioral cues to adjust my care accordingly to make sure your pet feels safe and loved. You can trust that your dogs will be treated like family with me. As a college student completing my degree online, I have a highly flexible schedule that allows me to be readily available for dog walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. This flexibility also allows me to give your pet the attention they deserve without being rushed or distracted. I treat each visit with care and reliability, making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you're away. When providing drop-in visits, I focus on making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for in the comfort of their own home.I always follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules and medication needs to specific routines or favorite toys. I’ll also keep you updated, so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Karen was a great dog walker. We had our initial meet and greet with her and she was very understanding with how our dogs were with new people. She was very patient and kind with them. I loved the updates with photos she put on their report card, I could see that they were being well taken care of. She would keep me updated when I needed to refill their doggy bags. My dogs quickly liked her and would patiently wait by the door for her to come. As an anxious dog mom, I was able to trust her completely. I would highly recommend Karen for any pet needs.”

“Here’s a grammatically correct and natural-sounding version: Wen is the best! I had an ankle injury and made a last-minute request for a walk, and she generously helped me. Noa also had some stomach discomfort, and she took great care of him. He really likes her and already misses her.”
“Marissa is amazing! I was in need of a new dog walker for my nervous and anxious pup and right away she made plans to come over for a meet and greet. Right away he took to her which almost never happens with new people! She very clearly loves animals and enjoys being with them, is communicative and timely, and respectful of our home. So glad Migo and I found her!! 10/10 recommend her.”

While I was away, Clara kept me updated with daily photos and little notes about their walks and playtime, which gave me so much peace of mind.
