1. Dakota W.
“Dakota connects well with our dog Patrick and is able to re-direct him when he wants to just turn around and come home. Our pup can be just one small ball of over excitement and exuberance and they handle that well. Dakota has been very reliable and always lets me know if he needs to adjust the time a bit.”
2. Emil F.
“Emil was outstanding! Great communication, attention to detail, and flexibility.”
3. Jessica L.
“Jessica was great!! She was very thorough, communicated well, and was great with my dog, Sulley! Loved the messages and pictures she left!! Would definitely ask her to watch him again :)”
4. Lindy P.
“Lindy was a life-saver caring for our elder dog. She walked Maggie in the rain, double checked on other coverage, and sent photos of each visit. She is a very responsible caregiver and I could tell that Maggie felt very comfortable with her. I had several people checking in on Maggie due to scheduling conflicts and Lindy was supposed to be a "fill in" for us. I totally messed up the schedule and Lindy graciously covered my gaps. She even left me a "schedule template" I can use next time so I don't make errors. Next time I need someone to care for Maggie, I'll hire Lindy for the entire week if she's available. Highly recommended!”
5. Ginny F.
“We love Ginny! She has been great with our dog in helping us take him out weekly. She is great with communication and truly reliable. She also lets us know her schedule well in advance and responds in a timely manner. Our dog always seems happy to see her and we are grateful for her help with our sweet pup!”
6. Lauren G.
“Lauren is so lovely! She came over before my dog Sulley’s walk to meet him and figure out his routine. She had excellent communication throughout and was wise to not walk him too much/too far in the heat. Definitely would book again!!”

About: I've been taking care of both cats and dogs since I was 7! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, including dogs as large as 100+ pounds. I also have experience with pets of all ages, including puppies and kittens up to senior animals. I love animals and promise that I will make sure your furry family member is happy, well cared for, and loved when they are with me! I'm currently on a break between graduating law school and my full time job starting, so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry family member! I live an apartment that is up 2 flights of stairs with my partner. We are a non-smoking home. While we don't currently have pets of our own, our home is ready for your pet to stay over! We have room for up to a medium sized crate in our home. Right outside our door we have an outdoor pet relief area and easy access to nearby parks for lots of enriching walks. I will send a photo with every visit and happy to communicate more frequent updates for longer visits or stays, whatever your preference is.

“Anthony walked our two dogs daily while we were traveling for two weeks. From the first meet and greet, I could tell Anthony was compassionate and would treat our dogs like his own!

We got daily updates with photos and details about the walks and the dogs really enjoyed having a routine while we were away. Would definitely recommend and use again!”
