6. emily d.


“Emily is literally the best and as much as I want to keep her services to myself (lol) I just have to say she’s so sweet and so caring to my pet. My dog Lua is very timid and not trusting of strangers at all so I was very nervous, but she warmed up to Emily so quickly bc she is such a sweet genuine soul! Can’t express enough how much I appreciated her. Always kept me updated and sent me pictures. Ive worked with a few walkers, but Emily is the best by far :) Will be booking again for sure!!!”

9. Maleena P.

“My dog is very nervous around strangers and is very attached to me. Maleena was very smart. After going potty, my dog was pulling Maleena back to my house, so Maleena understood that my dog was worried Maleena was taking her away. So, Maleena brought her back, came in the house to show my dog that she was not taking her away. Maleena got on the floor and got my dog to relax and afterward, my dog was happy to go on a walk with her. I would say that Maleena has extremely good instincts regarding animals. I am happy to have scheduled her again to walk my dog. Extremely happy with Maleena.”

He dog sits for friends dogs and takes them on walks. He is a dog person in every sense and will put in the effort to take care of any dog.”

“Great work and reliable”


20. Lindsay R.
“Lindsay has watched our Porkroll - my 21lb chihuahua/Shi tzu for about a year and a half now, ever since we adopted him. Whenever we are away for sports for the day or a weekend getaway we always call Linds. She’s so great when it comes to stopping by or having to spend a few nights at the house. Porkroll gets SO excited when Lindsay comes through the door, I know he’s going to be well taken care of when she comes! She’s the first person we always call. She knows Pork’s routines by now & they’ve become best buds. So great to trust someone like Linds with your fur-baby.”
