7. John D.

“Olga and I are lucky we met John. He came over several times before I left town to walk her, getting to know Olga and the house. It was clear from the way he interacted with Olga and the questions he asked that he knows dogs. I learned a lot from him! I appreciated his regular updates and the sweet pics and vids he sent while I was away; great to know she was enjoying her house and routine. And enjoying John! I look forward to working with John again and highly recommend him for walking and house sitting.”

11. Mark N.

“Mark always goes above and beyond, leaving your pup (and place) better than he found it. He’s a natural when it comes to dogs. Not only does he provide ample care for your pup, he encourages good behaviors and reinforces training. He will always be my go-to man for dog sitting, as both my dog and I adore him. Thanks for all you do Mark!”

18. Benjamin P.

“Benjamin was wonderful with our two older dogs! We booked him relatively last minute for a trip but it turned out to be a great thing. He was very accommodating to our dogs needs and kept us posted on their status so we had nothing to worry about. He was also a very respectful house guest and kept the place tidy and neat. We would absolutely have Benjamin watch our dogs again and I think they would like that too!”


19. Victoria C.
