“Nicole walks our dog daily and we fully recommend her for anyone's pet care needs! Our dog is greatly improving on the leash after his daily walks with Nicole and is so at ease when she is around. Nicole is responsive, on time, and, most importantly, great with our dog.”
“Danny is so kind and caring with our 10 month old puppy and makes sure he gets all the love, care, and walks he needs. He is very attentive and flexible to the dog’s needs and so communicative with us.”
About: I’m a reliable and attentive dog sitter who takes the time to understand each dog’s specific needs and routine. I have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs, so I’m comfortable adjusting my approach depending on their age, energy level, and behavior. With puppies, I focus on reinforcing good habits like basic commands, potty training routines, and appropriate play. I stay consistent with whatever training style the owner prefers to help support their progress. I also have experience with senior care, including giving medications, monitoring mobility, and making sure older dogs stay comfortable and don’t overexert themselves. I pay close attention to any changes in behavior and keep owners updated. I’m patient, observant, and make sure every dog feels safe, cared for, and well looked after. I am a college student at Penn State University and am back for summer, so I’m free everyday and am flexible with timing to fit your needs. I follow each pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I stick to their feeding, walking, and care instructions while making sure the pet gets plenty of attention and exercise.
“William is outstanding!! He’s is exceptionally patient with my senior dogs, they trusted him right away. William is a great communicator, on time, and professional. A+++++”
About: Hi! I’m a rising sophomore at Virginia Tech with a flexible schedule from working part time. I love dogs and have experience helping friends walk, feed, and care for their pets. I’m reliable, patient, and will make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I enjoy staying active and spending time with dogs. I help babysit for a family daily from 3–6 PM, but outside of that I have a very flexible schedule and can be available at different times throughout the day. I love staying active and enjoy going on walks with dogs, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’ve always loved dogs and enjoy spending time playing with them and taking them on walks. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy.
“Excellent walker. We could not be happier! Communicative and takes great photos. Always on time. Our dog can be a little shy with strangers and she was very patient with him. Would book again.”
About: I grew up on a farm taking care of so many different types of animals! I grew up with 2 Jack Russell’s, have taken care of golden retrievers, pit bulls, golden doodles, pugs, and so many other breeds-to include dogs who are medically complex. I work as a fitness instructor and consistently have multiple hour breaks between my coaching sessions. The perfect amount of time to take your pup on a walk or a potty break! Bonus- it helps me get my steps in ☺️ Very good at following verbal and written instructions to ensure your dog is cared for just as you would. I am more than willing to share my references with you if it makes you feel more comfortable!
“Krystian provided exceptional service! He took the time to a meet and greet the day before, and did an amazing job with my 2 dogs, especially the little one who was timid and reserved.”
“Fran took very good care of my puppy.She is a very reliable person.I could see at the end of the weekend that my puppy was very comfortable with her.I will not hesitate to request her services in the future.You can trust Fran!”
About: I've cared for multiple cats and dogs of friends and families over the years and have some professional experience. I worked at DogiZone in Rockville for nearly a year (2020-2021) and for a few months at Scooter's Pet Care in Seattle, WA (2025), as a pet care technician. Part of my responsibilities included walking, exercising, administering medication, bathing, and spending the night with dogs of all ages and sizes. I also have some training experience and have worked with up to 30 dogs at one time. I'm currently not working until the summer is over, so I am very flexible. My schedule is totally open for dog or cat sitting, walking, or check-ins. The way I care for your pets is up to you; I can adapt to your needs, whatever they may be. I am comfortable crating pets if need be, but I prefer to let my own pets roam free throughout my house. With puppies or smaller dogs, I keep a close eye on their activities, especially when they're outside.
“Would absolutely rebook Mark again! He was prompt, communicative, and an amazing walking partner for my dog who needed daily hour long walks while we were away for a long weekend. He is attuned to making your dog comfortable: I mentioned that my dog is nervous around men and Mark set-up a quick meet and greet to get acquainted. We really felt he went the extra mile for us 💚”
“Christopher has been wonderful with my two dogs - one of which has dog aggression issues. He is detail oriented, very responsive to my inquires, and always sends an after walk update on time. It makes it easier getting through the work day not having to worry about my dogs knowing they were well taken care of during their daily walk with Christopher.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I have house sat, walked, and bathed dogs of family and friends multiple times. I am comfortable caring for all sized dogs. I grew up with a very anxious rescue dog, so I have experience with sweet dogs who need extra patience. I am a full time teacher, so I have summers off. During the school year I will be available to help after school and on weekends. Until August I am available all day each day of the week. I will care for your pet with patience and respect. I love being around dogs, and I will always follow pet instructions and guidelines provided.
“Lauren was great to work with and I will definitely contact her again the next time we need someone to walk our dogs. She was responsive, flexible, and great with our two German Shepherds. She also sent pictures of the dogs each time she walked them. I would highly recommend you reach out to Lauren!”
“Denisse is very kind and responsible!! She visited my house mid-day for several days to take my two dogs for a walk and let them play in the yard while I had long days out of the house. Everything with the booking went as planned and the pictures were great!! I highly recommend Denisse for your pet sitting needs!”

Judson has been a tremendous help taking care of Brody while I am at work. Always on time and provides great feedback and hangs out with Brody afterwards, so he has good company! Great with instructions and care. All the way around fantastic Walker and Sitter! I would highly recommend Judson for anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy Walker/Sitter.
Chris has been a huge help to our family. We needed someone who could handle a rambunctious, large puppy who is still learning to walk on-leash without pulling, and Chris has done an excellent job while also building a positive relationship with our dog. He’s incredibly responsive to messages and has even picked up additional days with little notice. We truly appreciate his reliability and care.
Anne did a wonderful job taking care of Rogue, our Corgi senior! All the pictures and updates were great and helped up feel better during our time away. Anne took extra steps to ensure she got all the right attention and care. I would 100% recommend Anne if you need someone to take loving care of your pet!
We needed a dog walker at the last minute due to an illness in our family. Luke was incredibly responsive and accommodating. He took great care of our dog, Bud, who is young and strong! We also enjoyed learning a bit about Luke. Luke is professional, kind and clearly cares about animals. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Luke again and highly recommend him.
Would absolutely rebook Mark again! He was prompt, communicative, and an amazing walking partner for my dog who needed daily hour long walks while we were away for a long weekend. He is attuned to making your dog comfortable: I mentioned that my dog is nervous around men and Mark set-up a quick meet and greet to get acquainted. We really felt he went the extra mile for us 💚
Christine was wonderful! She was so kind and friendly and my pup (who is usually shy with new people) looked forward to his walks with her. I was recovering from surgery and it gave me such peace of mind to know that my pup was in good hands and getting the exercise that he needed. Christine is a true professional - great communication and so warm and kind with my pup, I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!
We are so excited to have found Nina! She is amazing with our dogs who quickly warmed to her which is not the usual for our boys. Alfie is suspicious of strangers but was quiet and calm when Nina arrived for a trail walk. Rocky can be jumpy and hyper but he was also calm with her. On one occasion during our trial walk, Rocky jumped for some treats and she quickly tightened his leash and got him focused again on the walk. We will definitely be using Nina for walks and are excited about her staying with our dogs in a few weeks for a pet sitting stay.
