Chris is the most wonderful and intuitive dog walker. He pays close attention to what our dog needs each day and is communicative about her behaviors each day. Chris is a true animal lover that takes the time to connect with our dog each day. I highly reccommend Chris, he is an amazing dog walker.

Thomas is super reliable and flexible with our last minute walk requests! He’s clearly a natural with dogs — our 75lb chocolate lab loves him and comes home happy and ready for nap.

Kelsey was awesome! She communicated very well, and Tonks (our very shy Corgi) quickly opened up to Kelsey! She also considered the day's heat and adjusted her walking schedule to ensure they were shaded. Awesome service!

Lydia is great! She helped us walk Nova while we were on a trip and had my mom staying with Nova. My mom cannot handle Nova due to her reactivity to other dogs, squirrels, and cats. Normally they would just play in the back but our yard was too flooded to permit it. Lydia jumped in to help on very short notice and in the middle of some crazy weather. She was punctual and took Nova out on a different walk each morning that we needed her. She is communicative, responsible, and took good care of our spoiled princess baby. I highly recommend her!

About: I have 2 dogs of my own at home! We love spending our nights after work at the dog park or going on hikes together on the weekends. Most of my friends and neighbors ask me to take care of their pups whenever they travel and it’s something that brings me a lot of joy! I work from home so my schedule is flexible. I can take breaks and go for long or short walks throughout the day. I am most free before work, during my lunch break 1:00-2:00pm or after 5:30pm I am very attentive to the needs of each pet and make sure they feel relaxed in any situation. I have dogs of my own at home and understand the importance of keeping them leashed and safe.

With a heart full of affection for dogs and a background in caring for them, I am well-equipped to provide exceptional dog sitting services. My experience includes looking after the dogs of friends and family, ensuring their well-being, comfort, and happiness while they're in my care. I'm excited to extend my passion and expertise to offer top-notch dog sitting services for your beloved pets. I'm currently work part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pup!

Chuck was wonderful with our two husky mixes. They’re both high energy and have their own quirks on walks but Chuck was totally unfazed and even took them out in the pouring rain. Our dogs love him, you can tell they’re in great hands when he walks them.

About: Hi there! I'm a dog lover with an active lifestyle. I'm always looking to spend more time with furry friends. I'm available most days for dog sitting, walks or just drop in visits and would love to provide your pup with fun-filled, active days. My schedule is flexible and I'm happy to accommodate your specific needs, whether that means long walks, park visits, or just some quality cuddle time on the couch. I am available every day although my teenagers are with me Sunday through Wednesday. I may go out to do errands but can always change what I'm doing to meet your pets needs. Walks, overnights and everything in between are great on weekends. I live in a condo in the canal. We have plenty of outside space and use it frequently. There are plenty of dogs in the neighborhood and they can socialize at your discretion.

I highly recommend Lauryn for your pet sitting needs! She is reliable, on time and amazing with my 7 month old puppy. She took the time to learn about him and his needs and also sent me pictures and updates each time she walked him. We felt extremely comfortable and safe having her in our home. He was a happy boy when I got back home to him!

Sarah was excellent to work with -- communicative, friendly, and great with our girls. They are each 40lbs of energy and not the easiest to control sometimes -- but she worked with them to earn their trust and be their walk leader. Additionally, even though most of the walks were scheduled during a heat wave, zero complaints from Sarah, and she smartly knew to make the sure dogs didn't get overheated by limiting the distance and making sure they had water. Highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for a conscientious person to take care of their pets!

Jaimi and her daughter were amazing with my two dogs, Bumi and Lily. They took them on 30-minute walks to a dog play area, spent time playing with them, and even stayed longer to make sure both dogs were fully walked and able to use the bathroom. Communication was great throughout, and they were incredibly kind and attentive. Bumi and Lily were genuinely excited to see both Jaimi and her daughter, which says a lot. I’ll absolutely be booking them again for dog walking and pet care
