I can’t recommend Karly enough. She is quick to respond, always on time, and my pup loves walking with her! She has even been able to accommodate last minute requests on such a short notice. I can relax a bit at work knowing my pup is in good hands when she is scheduled to walk with Karly.

Isabella is a very responsible and caring dog person. She has been caring for my pup for 7 months in a variety of ways: day/evening care, walks, and house sitting. What has impressed me most is her ability to build a bond with my people-shy and anxious pup. She is patient and kind, speaks to him in a thoughtful way and shows genuine concern for his well-being. Other skills and traits that Isabella possesses: -reliable and consistent communicator sending updates and reaching out when she has questions -flexibility with regards to scheduling, if need be, she makes adjustments -conscientious in administering my dogs meds and feeding him treats and special food -safety and privacy is top of mind with Isabella and she follows house rules and special med instructions in caring for my dog Last but not least, I have no reservations when going away because I know she will take good care of my home. I highly recommend Isabella to care for anyone's pet, they will love her!

Tim provided wonderful care for my puppy during a difficult time. They understood her needs, communicated clearly, were really respectful of my home. I noticed that they remembered specific concerns I had made sure to keep those im mind. I also appreciated the thoughtful pictures they sent and their intentionality in the details they provided about how the care went and how much puppy was doing. Thank you, Tim!

Sara is so awesome! My anxious dog usually takes a few times meeting with someone to feel aquatinted, but my pup felt comfortable the first walk with Sara. He now is so excited to see her and spend time during walks. I feel great knowing she understands his needs and I am very grateful to have found her. 10/10

Adam is a wonderful pet carer and our shy rescue pup immediately warmed up to him. He has a great, calming, positive energy and is completely trustworthy. As soon as I met him, I knew Chami would be in good hands. He's very punctual, always bang on time to walk our dog and responsive with messaging and photo updates. I would 100% recommend him!

My dog looooooved her walk with Sydney! The pictures and videos Sydney sent us were so sweet and our dog looked so happy. Sydney was super communicative and let us know when she had mila, how they were doing on their walk, and when mila was back home. It was also a really hot day and Sydney was very patient and accommodating for our senior tripod! Can’t wait to continue with Sydney :)

We hired Valerie to walk our dog Hank twice a day while he stayed at my mom’s during our vacation, and she exceeded every expectation. From the start, she was incredibly thorough with planning. Valerie asked all the right questions and clearly came prepared knowing exactly how to handle him. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs and takes real pride in her work. Hank was happy, well-exercised, and in great hands the entire time. We’ll absolutely be booking with Valerie again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable walker!
