23. Kelly G.
About: I was a dog groomer for over a year and now work in a dog store and am able to read body language well and get treats to accommodate any allergies I spend as much time with my dog as I can everyday. I brush her, play ball, and pet her every single day and always give her lots of cookies. I take my dog to dog parks to play with her and have give her lots of treats! I brush my dog everyday and always have a cuddle time.


24. Zachary F.

“Zachary was great! We were away for the day and he came by a few times throughout the day to walk our two labs. We would definitely recommend him and look forward to having him watch our pups again some time soon!”


25. Derek J.
“Derek has done an awesome job dog sitting and walking our dog Benny for us. He kept the house clean and tidy like he was never there. He sent us daily updates about how they were doing and took him on walks, a hike, and even took Benny on a run. Benny is always very excited to see Derek when he shows up at our house. We definitely recommend him.”

27. Caroline G.
About: I have grown up as a dog lover and was lucky to always have a dog of my own at home. I started helping out family and friends and watching their dogs when I was in college and absolutely loved it. About 2 years ago, I began expanding and caring for dogs whose families I met online. I have several families that I have longstanding relationships with and love their pups like my own. I have cared for a variety of temperaments, ages, and breeds: senior Puggles, young Pitbull mixes with high energy, friendly Golden Retrievers, and anxious rescue Lab mixes. My own family dog is a rescue and does not like anyone who is not in our family (lol) so I totally get that some pups need extra time to warm up to someone new! I am open to whatever works best for you and your pup. I currently work full time 7-3 each day. I am available to watch pups overnight, do afternoon walks, and stop by for drop-ins as necessary. I communicate with the client in order to get on board with their routines and safety measures. Safety is the most important thing to me and I am easily able to adapt to what you are comfortable with!

“Took great care of our pets!”


29. Jordan C.
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and have always helped out family and friends when they needed someone to watch their dog/cat while they were gone. Whether it was letting them out, walking them, feeding them or just staying with them for company, I've always enjoyed being around animals. I have my own dog Axel who is a 3-year-old shepherd mix and he's amazing! He requires a lot of exercise so we're constantly out for walks in nature. I'm very active and love to be outdoors. I currently work Tuesday-Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. but am fully available on weekends and Mondays. I could also do some evening nights throughout the week if needed. My current house is not fenced in, but I'd be available to watch your pets at your house if that is what you're looking for.

32. Ellie H.

“Caroline was wonderful, reliable and local. Molly my little yorkie received great care. Caroline sent multiple pictures of Molly while I was away which was so comforting. I would definitely recommend and share. Thanks again.”


35. Alyssa S.
“I have three puppies. Alyssa has proven time after time, that she is very responsible, reliable and extremely accommodating. My husband and I were out of the country when one of our “babies” became ill with a relapse from Lymes disease, she handled EVERYTHING (vet care and support) like a champ. I complete trust my pups in her care.”


36. Marissa G.
“Marissa has watched my dog multiple times now. She recognizes that his needs may be different from other dogs and always makes sure to prioritize what those are. He really looks forward to her visits and I can go away with ease knowing he’s under good care! Highly recommend!”


37. Jennifer T.
“Jennifer has taken care of our older cat when we are out of town a number of different times. She is reliable, thoughtful and has an obvious love for animals. Our kitty loves her!”

40. Samantha S.
“I highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter or dog walker. Samantha has cared for our dog several times in our home while we were away. Our dog, who can be aloof and a bit selective of her human friends, absolutely LOVES her and follows her around the whole time they are together. Samantha has a way with every dog she meets--even the shy or nervous ones can't resist her charm! You won't find a better person to care for your animal.”
