“Katie has been not short of exceptional to my pup. She has consistently communicated with me and has taken such great care of my dog that I can’t thank her enough. While I was skeptical of using a dog walker at first, I would highly recommend Katie for her enthusiasm and professionalism when it comes to caring for dogs!”
“Super helpful during my move to the area and easy to work with. Great communication, will definitely work with again.”
“I couldn't be happier with Raquel as a dog sitter! She was incredibly responsive, sending me regular updates and photos, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Raquel went above and beyond by taking my dog on longer walks than I expected and making sure she got plenty of playtime. When I got home, I found the sweetest handwritten card from her. Such a thoughtful touch that really made my night coming home to! Raquel is wonderful with pets, and I’d wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive sitter <3”
“Alyssa is amazing! She’s great with communication, set me lots of updates and pictures, and my dog absolutely loved her! Will definitely be rebooking!”

“Kimmeth is the absolute best! She takes such good care of both my cat and dog! She is so reliable, I don’t ever worry that she won’t show up!!! Being a nurse, I work sometimes 14 hours, so knowing that Kimmeth will be there for my future babies really takes the stress of leaving all day away!!! I HIGHLY recommend Kimmeth!!!”
“Such a lovely person, I could tell by her energy and I loved that she worked with her during the walk as my pup is still learning not to be reactive on the leash! I will definitely be using her again!”
“Very reliable and consistent. Christina does great with our pups and they look forward to their time with her. She even walked them in the rain! Thanks so much.”
About: I’ve had lifelong experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra care. My playful nature helps me bond quickly with dogs, and I’m attentive to their unique needs. My background with diverse breeds like German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, Shih Tzus, and a Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mix ensures I can handle different temperaments with patience and love. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I dedicate time every day to ensure dogs get the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime in the afternoon, or quiet evening cuddles, I make sure their routine is consistent and comforting. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to their specific needs, providing personalized care that fits seamlessly into my week. I ensure pets feel safe and comfortable in either my home or yours by sticking to their routine. I provide daily walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I make sure they have a cozy space to relax and am always mindful of any special needs they may have. Whether it’s feeding, grooming, or just keeping them company, I focus on creating a stress-free, enjoyable environment.

About: ive been surrounded by dogs ever since i was born, nothing makes me more happy than providing a safe and happy environment for someones beloved pet. I provide personalized and attentive care to each dog i meet and will make sure they have a home away from home with me. I am a full time college student with a very long summer break looking to earn some money whilst doing what i love. I have a very flexible and free schedule and the only times i may be unavailable is a few times of the year when im out of town. In my home i will provide a clean, safe and playful environment for your dog and will ensure it receives all its needs and desires including walks and food time.

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life and have over 15 years of experience. I have had experience from puppy to senior dog and feel comfortable with everything in between. Large and small dog experience as well. I love all dogs and look forward to meeting and taking care of yours! I am happy to fit in a walk or stop by whenever is convenient for you! I don’t have a dog of my own right now and would love to give that extra love during the week. I work remote half the week so am flexible with my schedule.
