“Tia is GREAT! I booked with her when my normal reoccurring walker had to take some time off. She came early before the walk and stayed late to make sure my dog was doing well. She leaves good notes about the walks and communicates very well. I would HIGHLY recommend booking walks with Tia!”
2. Andrea E.
“I have had Andrea watch my cat Spice twice for extended periods time, and both times she has outdone herself! She always goes the extra mile with my pet. Prior to me leaving for my trip, Andrea made the time to meet my pet before I left to get to know where everything Spice needs is. She keeps me updated with videos, pictures, and phone calls while i’m away. Andrea takes the time to play with her and learn how she specifically needs to be cared for, and even gives my cat her treats. I’ve never had a doubt in my mind that my cat is happy, safe, and well cared for when i’m gone for more than 2 weeks at a time. I’ve trusted Andrea and she outdoes herself and i’m so appreciative!!”

“Sydney was so sweet and thorough in her communication! At the end of my dog’s walk, she was sure to give me details about their time together which I really appreciated ☺️ Will book again!”

6. Jodi B.
About: I have 32 years of pet experience. I am owned by two cats, one of whom is special needs. I’ve cared for puppies, kittens, and senior cats and dogs. I have experience administering oral, injectable, and topical medication. I work full-time 8,5 hours Sunday and 10 hours M-W. I do have the option of taking long lunches and can do drop-ins before and after work and during lunch. I am most available Th-Sat. Those days work best for walks, pet sitting, or drop-ins. I always follow instructions on caring for others’ pets to the letter. Times for feeding and medications, whether or not other dogs or people are allowed to s hello on walks, daily litter box cleaning, etc. Respecting the pet parent’s wishes is very important to me. When pet sitting I am as unobtrusive as possible, cleaning up after myself, and do my best to leave the house exactly as I found it.

“Very thankful for Kaitlyn last minute walk after I had a last minute appointment...my girl is smiling in her photo”
8. Taelor D.
“We just moved to Davenport. Taelor is a blessing. She takes great care of Remington. He’s a big dog who’s getting up there in age. She keeps me posted if he’s limping or overly hot, she makes sure he has fresh water and treats. It is is very obvious that she loves dogs and what she does. She brings in packages when they’re delivered during the day, which is a huge help. I highly recommend her.”
9. Tracey C.
“I would highly recommend Tracey for any pet-sitting job you might be considering her for. I’m convinced she’s got some kind of magical ability because my cat—who normally hates everyone—actually loves her! Not to mention my two big dogs, who are absolutely obsessed with her. Tracey has been an absolute lifesaver when my family travels. She’s reliable, always on time, and most importantly, she’s someone I can trust completely with my furry family members. I never have to worry about their well-being when Tracey’s in charge. My dogs get all the exercise and belly rubs, and snuggles they could ever want, and my cat...well, she completely approves too! It’s amazing to come home to my pets who are calm and happy and unstressed because they’ve been at home and so wonderfully cared for. They love getting to spend with Tracey! If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about animals and will give your pets the same love and attention you would, look no further. Tracey is your person!”
10. Abigail P.
“Abby is the nicest person in the world when it comes to people and pets. There is no one I would trust more with my pets than her. With her degree in Animal Science and doing an internship at an animal hospital she is more than qualified to be a responsible and loving pet giver.”
11. Victoria W.
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs. Have rescued kittens and a bird once. As a young child I grew up in a home taking care of several cats and dogs. Right now I have a calico cat named Yuki who is 6 years old. I am currently working full time Sunday to Wednesday. I’m free for walks and drop in visits after 5:30 pm. I’m completely free on Thursdays to Saturdays. I live in a quiet neighborhood. With my cat Yuki I make sure to feed her when I get up. I’m very active, and Yuki loves playing with a laser pointer.
12. Estefania P.
“Estefania did a fantastic job with Zack! Will book again.”
13. Meagan N.
“Meagan is a gem! Reliable and my heeler always looks forward to seeing her. She gives him a good workout, he comes home tired and happy. 😀”
14. Jared F.
“Jared has figured these guys out from the start. They love him and the longer walks. Very accommodating to different routes and very aware of their surroundings to prevent problems since the boys have never been socialized.”
15. Amanda K.
“I am so very attached and emotional about my 19 year old cat, Inkie. Amanda immediately connected to her when petting her in their first meeting. Amanda knew just how to pet her. Inkie responded immediately with a purr. Amanda showed up every day, twice a day to feed and pet Inkie. She took pictures with her cell phone and sent them to me. I was SO grateful for her care. I recommend Amanda 100%!!!! Michèle Marsh”
16. Liza M.
“Liza was the most responsible dog sitter and took very good care of my dog Broozer. He is very Picky with who he likes and for him to go right up to her with no hesitation was very good. She made sure he was fed and made sure he got most of his energy out. I would rebook Liza again”

19. Tommesha M.
