1. Pauline S.
“Pauline is amazing with animals! She not only cares for her geriatric cat, who has different sensitivities and needs that requires patience, but she’s also great with younger cats and dogs. Her ability to adapt to different animal types and needs is exceptional. I highly recommend her as a caretaker for your pet.”


2. Rebecca L.
“Rebecca has cared for my dog since he was a puppy until he was 3 years old on and off. He is a toy poodle with lots of energy and loves Rebecca so much! They are such a sweet, caring person who has been very engaging and attentive whenever they cared for him. They are inseparable, and Rebecca also taught him tricks from an early age, while teaching him how to go up the stairs and other things pups need to learn. I recommend their patient and tender care!”

“We’ve been working with Meg for a couple of weeks now, and she’s been incredible. Our Aspen can be anxious and doesn’t always walk very well, but Meg has been great and he’s warmed up to her so quickly! Meg has also been so understanding with our constantly shifting work schedules, and we really appreciate her flexibility and responsiveness. Can’t recommend her enough!”


7. Devora H.
“Dev has a very kind and warm heart for dogs! She rescued my dogs and many other dogs from high-kill shelters. She is very responsible for the dogs she rescues by providing necessary medical care, high-quality food, toys, and warm beds for them.She makes sure that adopters are the right people, interviews them, background checks, and personally drives dogs thousands of miles to new owners. I admire her love for dogs and trust her 100 % for my dog’s care.”


8. Jazz W.

“Jazz was great with Nala and I’ll definitely rebook with her for future walks. Jazz recommended a meet and greet before the walk which helped Nala get comfortable with her while Jazz got to know Nala’s habits. Jazz is sweet, kind, and caring. Huge thank you to her for taking care of Nala!”

Whether it’s his own two cats or a friend’s dog, he treats every pet with so much love and care. He’s incredibly patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. Stefan goes above and beyond to make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to leave my pets in his care he’s someone you can truly trust with your fur babies.”

Always on time and sent cute photos and videos! We will definitely have her walk him more often! Thank you! Highly recommended! A+”

During this time, Frank was: 1) Attentive and receptive to information on my animals. 2) Skilled and experienced enough to get the job done. 3) Flexible enough to account for the unexpected. 4) Communicative with pics and notes on walks. 5) Very kind towards my two animal friends. :) Frank is a total pro, you'd be making a good decision to leave your animals in their care.
