About: I have always loved animals. My husband & kids and I had a beloved dog for 15 yrs & really miss him. I’ve also babysat my grand-dog multiple times. I miss having that interaction & would love to care for your pet. I’ve been working from home since COVID began and set my own hrs. Would love to fill the additional hrs with a furry friend. I’m available anytime. Small unfenced yard to enjoy & quite neighborhood for walks. Dog park and walk along river accessible by car. Crating available if needed. Your pet will be spoiled as I will only watch one pet at a time.

“Aiden is great!”
10. Giuseppe L.
“We contacted Giuseppe with very short notice the night before Thanksgiving and took care of our dog the next couple of days while we were on vacation. Very personable and professional. On time, really understood our situation and knew how to handle our dogs reactivity. We know that we left her in good hands the second we met Giuseppe and we will be hiring him for his services in the future!”
11. Elizabeth G.
“Very reliable and good with my Charlie!”
12. Patrick & Susan D.
“Wonderful dog walkers. Pat was critical to helping me successfully interview for a job (including full days of Zoom) without whiny dogs in the background and was highly responsive and flexible in scheduling. We are looking forward to boarding our dogs with them and only wish they had greater availability (but of course, top dog walkers/boarders are busy!).”
13. Paul K.
“Paul is a wonderful addition to my dog’s routine! I was scrambling to figure out what to do on my 12 hour days with my newly adopted rescue female pit mix when classes started this Fall. After reviewing a few profiles, Paul’s really stuck out as someone with both passion and genuine knowledge about dogs/dog behavior. I asked him to come meet my dog before we officially booked to ensure that she reacted well to him. Within the first few minutes, my dog was on her back requesting belly rubs. Needless to say, they hit it off! I feel very comfortable with Paul and SO pleased with how happy my dog looks in the pictures I get from their weekly walks. Even when she refuses to go outside in the rain, he spends time hanging out with her so she still gets some attention. I couldn’t be more appreciative and I’m sure my dog would 100% agree!”
14. Isabella L.
“Bella is an amazing person with dogs. She is positive, loving, responsible. She has dog sat for me many times and there has never been an accident and my dog Maybe is always happy when we’re back and excited to see her when she comes. She loves animals!”
15. Richard B.
“Exceptional Dog Sitter – Highly Recommend. I am so grateful to have found Richard Bertheaud as a dog sitter! From the very first interaction, it was clear that Richard truly cares about animals and understands their needs. My dogs Macy and Arlo are very high-energy and have some special care requirements, but Richard handled everything with such professionalism and patience. Throughout our time away, Richard kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. It's obvious that he goes above and beyond to ensure that dogs feel safe, loved, and well-exercised. I could not recommend Richard more highly – he’s reliable, responsible, and truly passionate about taking care of dogs. I’ll definitely be booking him again for future pet-sitting needs!”
16. Kaylee B.
“Kaylee walked my dog daily while I was on vacation. She was prompt, professional and gave my dog a little extra TLC every day. She sent pictures and daily updates. I would definitely recommend Kaylee!”
17. Chris B.
About: I have been around all types of pets my entire life. I’ve taken care of dogs from Newfoundland’s to chihuahuas. I’m great with pets and have been responsible for cleaning, feeding, walking, and playing with lots and lots of dogs. I am a big animal person and want to do something with it in the future. In my childhood I would go to my aunts house often to take care of her 5 Newfoundland’s and bulldog. I would take my sisters chihuahua to the mountains of Colorado. Every nearby neighborhood I grew up by as a child knew me for my exceptional dog care and would want me to walk and dog sit for them all the time. It comes natural for someone when it is what they really love to do. I am currently self employed so I can make time or move my schedule around to accommodate your pets schedule needs. Open availability for right now. I give my cat lots of love and affection. I also take care of proper feeding and cleaning. Lots of experience feeding and walking dogs as well.
18. Katelyn J.
About: I’ve been a pet owner for life and I’ve cared for a variety of different pets! Over the years I have done many different tasks such as feed, bathe and walk pets. I love getting to know different animals and their personalities! I am available daily for walk and visits. I can work to tailor care to your animals needs depending on when I would be needed! Depending on your service, every visit will include a let out and playtime. I am willing to play fetch or just hangout with your animal!
19. Alexia C.
“Lexi has always taken great care of my dog! My dog requires a special way to eat her food, and she followed all the directions properly and texted me with updates and any questions she has! Comes and sees my dog 3x a day and spends time with her and walks her as well, my dog doesn’t get along with other dogs and she follows that! I would highly recommend her for sure!”
20. Erin B.
“Erin was great! I booked last minute and she was very accommodating and was on time! I would and absolutely will use her again… wonderful!”
