“Lacey did a great job with Quinn! She was great at notifying us whenever she was visiting and sent the best photos of her. We will definitely use her next time we need someone to check on Quinn!”


“Avery takes such good care of our dog Ruthie. We know she is in great hands when she does her daily visits with her twice a day. We love the pictures and updates she sends us and also that she lets us know if there is anything out of the ordinary that may be going on with Ruthie that she notices while doing the daily visits. We are so happy we found Avery and that we are able to trust her with our dog Ruthie ❤️🐾❤️🐾”


“Katie watched over my two kitties when I was out of town for a week. She was wonderfully communicative and ensured the cats were well taken care of. She also went above and beyond by watering my garden for the week!”


“Christine was awesome with my two kitties! She was communicative, reliable, and best of all for us - an awesome pet photographer! She arrived when she said she would, followed our care instructions, and sent lots of photos of the kitties while we were away. I would gladly recommend her for any pet care needs and have already booked her again for an upcoming trip!”


“⸻ I’ve been trusting Abhay with my dog for the past four years, and I can’t recommend him enough. He is incredibly reliable and always punctual, which gives me such peace of mind. One of the things I appreciate most is his excellent communication. After each session, he provides thoughtful updates on how things went, which shows how attentive and engaged he is. On the rare occasion when there’s any uncertainty, he doesn’t hesitate to reach out for clarification, which I truly appreciated. It’s clear that he takes both his work and my dog’s well-being seriously. It’s a huge comfort knowing my dog is in such capable and caring hands.”


“Ann Marie was lovely! Will be using her again. Flexible with our last minute booking, followed directions to the t, my pets loved her. Overall 5/5⭐️ experience”


“Barry was great! Very helpful, communicative and punctual! I’d recommend!”


About: I specialize in caring for dogs with special needs and flat faced dogs, frenchies, pugs, bulldogs, etc. I own two French bulldogs myself and administer all types of medication. I am semi-retired from a Corporate career and have recently decided to start my own dog walking business. I am currently trying to build up my clientele to hopefully create a doggie daycare in the near future. I will have a fenced in yard by the end of summer 2025, currently in progress. I have a few separate areas where pups can relax and veg out as well as play inside.

“My four cats loved Jordyn! Even my very shy cat came out for some attention from her. She took great care of my pets and I felt at ease being away!”


About: I started walking dogs as a first job when I was a kid! My family and I have always had dogs. Our most recent dog is an adopted mix, named Gogurt! I’m experienced caring for the pets of my family and friends. Looking forward to meeting your four legged friends! I am currently working PT, and have been with the same company for 30 years. I have flexibility on my off days, and can manage hours during the days/evenings. I am happy to meet your schedule needs when possible! At this time, I do not offer overnight services. In addition to walks and drop ins, I do home care during the day in clients’ homes.

“Kayla helped me with a last minute drop-in visit and was wonderful. She was responsive and followed all provided instructions to ensure my pup was taken care of. Grateful she was available and will certainly book again.”



About: I'm a lifelong dog lover who grew up with a sweet Newfoundland, so big pups hold a special place in my heart! I've been dog sitting for 3 years and treat every dog like family, whether it's cuddle time, playtime, or a long walk. I’d love to care for your furry friend like they’re my own! As a rising senior in college with a flexible class schedule and a part-time job, I’m able to plan my days efficiently and make time for pet care. I enjoy incorporating walks and playtime into my daily routine—it’s a great way to take a break, get outside, and spend time with dogs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their usual routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and play, and I always follow any instructions closely. I like to send regular updates and send you photos of your pet having fun!

“Colleen stopped by twice in one day to take our dog out and she was great. Phenomenal communication and she respected our home and dog. We will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Michael was amazing all around! He went above and beyond in many ways. He got out girls tennis balls, he cleaned up poop in the yard from previous days when I was too lazy to pick it up myself, took care of our cat even though we didn’t ask him to. He even took extra trips on his own time when I got stuck at work! Highly recommend!”


About: What sets me apart is my dedication to personalized care, reliability, and a genuine love for animals. I treat every pet like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, giving extra cuddles, or providing regular updates, I go the extra mile to give both pets and owners peace of mind. I’m recent college graduate, I currently work part time so I have plenty of time for your pets ! I’m available 9:30 am til whenever Monday, Wednesday, Friday and weekends! I’m also available after 12 pm on Thursday and Saturday . I currently cannot take pets into my home but I’m more than happy to watch your fur baby in the comfort of your home where your pet would be the most comfortable!

About: I have been taking care of dogs all my life. My family has never had less than two dogs in the house at a time, and my mom owns her own small dog walking/boarding business. I’ve helped take care of the dogs throughout the years. I currently work at a doggy daycare full-time, so I have a great understanding of what dogs need to thrive. I am good at recognizing when a dog needs medical, physical, emotional, and behavioral attention. The dogs I work with are truly some of my closest companions, and my own dogs are considered huge and real parts of the family! I never discriminate against breeds or age. I firmly believe that all dogs deserve respect, love, and patience. No matter what! Since I work at a doggy daycare full-time, I am always catering to the needs of the dogs I am with. Every day is something new, but you will usually find me feeding, cleaning up after, and engaging in healthy play with the dogs. I enjoy getting to know each dog on a personal level and picking up on their traits so that I can learn the best way to keep every single one happy! I ensure that any and all dogs in my home feel safe. I pay close attention to their behaviors and what they are communicating. I usually ask owners to give me a toy or bed belonging to the dog so they have something here to help them feel more at home. I listen to and respect feeding schedules and directions as not to throw off the dog. If you ask me to give your dog a hug every hour, I will, no questions asked! Whatever makes you and your furry friend feel safe, I will do.

About: My name is Suzanne, I am a dog mom to my 2 dogs, Kya & Buster, who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge. I am an Animal Reiki Master Practitioner & an End of Life Pet Death Doula. My passion is caring for animals in any capacity that I can. My heart has never been the same since adopting my 2 dogs in 2006/2007. I know what it's like to want the best care for your animals & to make sure they are being treated as you would. So, please feel free to ask me as many questions as you need so you can feel comfortable in your decision with my services. Kya was my 14 year old chocolate lab. She was my first dog, my greatest love, & my best friend. Sadly, she passed in 2020. Buster was my 15 year old Boston Terrier mix. He was blind & he loved life despite not being able to see. He was the most affectionate, brave, courageous, & smart dog. Sadly he passed in 2021. I got them both as puppies & I am so grateful to have found them. I was so proud to be their mom. They were my greatest accomplishment. I love all animals, but there is something about the eyes of a dog, that grab a hold of me. The best feeling is seeing in their eyes that they trust me, especially after only one walk! I love when dogs are able to do the things that make their heart smile.. I always put myself in the animal's shoes, as they don’t have a voice & their behaviors are often misunderstood, and then they are mistreated. I am super protective of them. Your dog will have fun, and will always feel safe, adored & respected with me. You will get pictures & follow up texts with details of how the visit went. They will be greeted with love & treated with kindness & compassion. I Hope to Have a meet & greet with you soon ! Thank you I work from home, so your pet will always have my company and attention. If I ever did have an appt to go to, your pet would never be left more than 3 hours. I live in a one level condo on the first floor. So for those pups with arthritis it’s perfect ! No stairs! My home is quiet and your pet will be safe.

About: I have always had dogs growing up and now have my own! I have experience with small to large dogs, young and older, and purebred and mixed breeds. I have my own dog, a husky german Shepard mix who I have raised since she was a puppy! I am a graduate student who will have the summer off. I work at a restaurant, which allows lots of flexibility to fit in dog walks and drop ins. I offer dog walking, I have extensive experience as my own dog is very difficult on a leash (pulling) however that does not bother me as I am use to it. I have also dealt with dogs who are reactive or try to escape out of their harnesses. I am also use to dogs with high energy!
