“Kayla is awesome! She has great communication and Banjo loves his walks with her. She always takes the time to play fetch with him in the backyard after their walks - Banjo’s favorite! I really appreciated that Kayla also took the time to coordinate a time to meet Banjo prior to his first walk. I would definitely recommend Kayla!”


2. Ashlee P.

“I can't recommend Ashlee highly enough! She has been walking my two dogs, Otto and Pepper, for the past few weeks, and the experience has been nothing short of fantastic. From our very first interaction, it was clear that Ashlee is a true professional who genuinely cares about animals. She walks Otto and Pepper in our neighborhood two to three times a week, and I appreciate her consistent communication. Ashlee sends updates and adorable pictures from every walk, which always brightens my day and reassures me that my pups are happy and well taken care of. I know she treats my dogs with love and respect, and I feel completely comfortable having her in my home. If you're looking for reliable, caring, and attentive pet care, Ashlee is the one to choose!”

About: I love any dogs! I have had experience taking care of all animals since I was 15! Including dropping by and house/dog sitting. My availability is pretty open. I work Sunday-Thursday in the afternoon (they not 4 hours a day) and I live on a lot of land that is fenced in and I do have chickens and a dog. We are a animal loving family that has had multiple pets throughout our time such as dogs, cats, chickens, turtles, horses, fish, and a bunny. Willing to pet sit and house sit if needed. I am willing to learn any special needs that your animal might need as well. I am currently working part time, so I’ll have a lot of time open to play and attend to your fur babies and animals of any kind. I’m available for pet sitting, house sitting, walking, any type of pet care any time of the day besides 2-7pm, Sunday-Thursday. I am completely open fridays and Saturdays. I love to keep animals active and happy! Whatever they like doing I am ready to assist with. Going for a nice walk, playing fetch, even cooling down in the summer ☀️

You have really lucked out finding this fantastic pet sitter!”

My dog came home relaxed and happy, and I will absolutely be booking with her again. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and caring sitter, look no further!”

17. Allison B.
About: UPDATE: I have taken a stray dog in my home (see last photo) to nurse her back to health, therefore my boarding services will be inactive for a little. I am still available for drop in visits and dog walks! Thanks for understanding! I have had dogs in my family for years! I also have multiple veterinarians in my family that I learn from every day. I am usually the one staying behind on New Years to help comfort the pets during the fireworks instead of going out, if that tells you anything! ❤️ I am a Bachelor's student in my last semester and I also work part time in athletics. I would love to do early morning walks with your fur babies, but I am happy to accommodate your schedule as needed. One of my biggest strengths is communication, therefore you will feel at ease with your pet under my care. My home is my safe space and I would love to make it comforting to your pet as well. I would help your pet feel safe and secure. There is also a fantastic walking path just north of my apartment that I'm sure your dog would love!


18. Dakoda M.

“Dakoda and I grew up together in a rural area with what felt like a mini farm. We’ve always had a lot animals, especially dogs (at one point in time we had a total of 8!) Dakoda has looked after friends’ dogs in the past and gives them just as much care and attention as if they were his own. He treats all animals like they’re family and his best friends, and caters to each of their needs individually. He knows how to keep each one happy, and he loves to spend time with them playing or just hanging out, whichever the mood is for that day. Any pet would be in great hands under Dakoda’s care!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was very young. Taking care of animals is always a great task at hand but is also one of my favorite hobbies! Pet care has always been something I’ve enjoyed. I have a part time job but I’m always happy to be able to watch your pets as well:) I’ve always had animals in my home since I can remember. I’ve dealt with animals with health issues, anxiety, etc. I will always be willing to work with ur pet to make sure they feel comfortable and safe.
