6. Purva J.

“Seriously, this young lady was the best dog walker ever! Purva was always on time, reliable, and great with my dog. My neighbors would agree. My crazy ADHD dog loved his walks with her. He'd go nuts when he heard her car. She could handle his energy and kept me updated with pics and texts. Plus, her prices were the best!! You should totally book Purva!”


7. Tracy C.
“Tracy has always been a dog lover, particularly Labs that have always been friendly and docile. Taking them wherever she can, for car rides, hikes or to the dog park. Also, she is eager to help out other dog parents when they are away for an extended time.”


8. Susan G.
“Susan is an extremely caring, responsible pet caretaker! As a pet sitter myself, she is who I trust my pets to when I need extra help. I trust her implicitly! Her experience is lifelong and includes dogs, cats, chickens, fish, turtles, and hamsters just to name a few. Her communication skills are excellent, and she follows details about food and medications perfectly. Whether she is at home taking care of her many animals or at a client's house there is no difference in her love and compassion for the furry baby in her care. I recommend Susan without reservation and urge you to take advantage of this amazing animal sitter. She will treat your pets as her own!”


9. Hannah G.

“Hannah was excellent with our big slobbery Stella! She was very attentive and caring especially bc it was a hot day”


10. Josephina V.
About: I have a dog of my own and have experience in house sitting and dog walking. I am a college student who enjoys physical activity and spending time outside, made even better by spending that time with a dog by my side! I am home from school for the summer and am currently interning and working sporadically. Both locations are very flexible with scheduling, giving me the ability to step away from work for any period of time to take care of your pet. I am comfortable with leash and yard trained dogs, especially ones that respond well to verbal commands. I am very detail oriented and attentive, which I believe provides a safe and enjoyable environment for dogs.


11. Kimberly P.

“Kim is extremely reliable, and always a bright spot in Freddie’s day! She accommodated him when he wanted to walk farther, shortened up the distance when he wasn’t so eager to walk, and even would carry him around, knowing that was what he wanted. I highly recommend Kim!”


12. Andrew Z.

“Great with our dog nova!”


13. Gabriella L.
About: More than walks — I bring patience, love, and expert care for puppies, seniors, and every tail in between! Puppy trainer, senior snuggler, tail wagger — I do it all with heart! Im mostly available during the summer due to the fact that im not in school. I can dog walk most hours of the day it just depends on my schedual each day. Whether in my home or yours, I create a safe, loving environment filled with play, routine, and lots of attention. I stick to your pet’s usual schedule, keep them active and happy, and treat them like family every step of the way.


14. Jennifer G.
“I have known Jennifer for over ten years. During that time, I have seen her take care of her own as well as other people's animals. She is incredibly knowledgeable about training, feeding, and caring for all animals including those that may be sick. She makes decisions that are always in the best interest of the pet and she is also a great communicator. She will always tell you exactly what is going on with your pet and come up with a care/activity/feeding plan that will be beneficial. Jennifer is a compassionate person who loves working with animals and people!”


15. Joey W.
“I can’t say enough about the exceptional care Joey provided for my elderly cat. From the very beginning, they showed genuine compassion, patience, and attentiveness to my cat’s unique needs. As any pet owner knows, caring for a senior animal requires a special kind of gentleness and understanding — and Joe had that in abundance. Not only did they ensure my cat was safe, comfortable, and well cared for, but their presence brought comfort to me as well. I always felt at ease knowing my cat was in such capable and loving hands. Joe was observant, responsive, and thoughtful in every interaction, even noticing subtle changes in behavior or health that others might have missed. It takes someone truly dedicated to make an elderly animal feel secure and respected in their final years, and for that, I am endlessly grateful. I wholeheartedly recommend Joe to anyone seeking a compassionate and reliable caregiver.”


16. Jessica B.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of various breeds and temperaments over the last 10 years. I have fostered puppies, adult, and elderly dogs from my local shelter. I have also fostered kittens and cats. I am experienced in walking, training, and taking care of dogs of all sizes, and have over 75 hours of volunteering at my local shelter. I am currently working part time so I am very flexible with my schedule, and can easily fit in walks or other pet care services. I live in a house with a large fenced in yard and have two friendly dogs at home to keep your dog company. I am very conscientious and alert, and will do my absolute best to meet your dog’s needs.


17. Hannah W.

“I'm so thankful for Hannah taking such great care of Daphne!”


18. Kaitlyn D.

“Kaitlyn is such a godsend! I contacted her at the last minute and she was able to come and take care of all our pets ! Trustworthy, dependable and caring… she’s fantastic!”




19. Devon E.
“Devon has watched my dog Paisley numerous times and I always know she will be well taken care of while I’m gone! Devon is great with dogs, even temperamental ones like mine.”


20. Samantha G.
“I had a wonderful experience with Sam. She house sat for a week and watched over my two dogs and cat, made sure they were fed on time and got out of the house for walks often!”
