“Ericka is absolutely amazing! She has been an incredible dog walker for my standard poodle, Gigi, and I couldn’t be happier with her care. From the start, Ericka has been so sweet, flexible with scheduling, and consistently reliable. She always communicates promptly and very quickly learned the French commands that I use with Gigi. Gigi absolutely LOVES her walks with Ericka. She gets so excited when Ericka arrives, literally jumping with joy, and it’s clear how much she adores her. Ericka does a fantastic job managing Gigi’s high energy levels and always ensures she gets the exercise and attention she needs. I trust Ericka completely with Gigi and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated and caring dog walker. Thank you, Ericka!”

“Katherine is amazing! She’s watched my dog so many times, and I honestly trust her more than anyone else. She always goes above and beyond to make sure my pup is happy and well taken care of. I can tell she really loves animals because my dog is always so excited to see her. She’s super reliable and just has this natural way of making me feel at ease when I have to leave my pittie behind. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own, Katherine is the one. I can’t recommend her enough.”


19. Matthew C.

“We can't express how thankful we are to Matthew during our first vacation in five years. Our dogs are our children, so we hesitated to travel as they have been with us 24/7 since the pandemic. They are active and, we admit, a little entitled. Matthew catered to their needs with affection and care. He showed up promptly every morning to take them on their morning walk. His texts every afternoon (as we were on the other side of the pond) brought peace of mind and a smile to our faces. Our house sitter spoke highly of him, too, and described him as very proper and professional. We won't hesitate to trust our fur babies to him again.”


20. Desirae L.


“Desirae is amazing! She cares deeply about animals, is flexible within reason, and treats my pet like a king. I would recommend her to anyone.”
