“Amazing!”
“Michelle did so great with Zephyr! We were so worried about having to leave him alone all day for the first time. He's only 8 months old, so we really needed to break up his alone time. I was so nervous, but Michelle made everything so much better! Zephyr had the best time with her and we are definitely going to have her back!”

“Stefanie was great with our little pup! He absolutely adored his walks and is looking forward to his next time with Stefanie! She was always prompt and sent us updates that we always laughed at!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was in school—neighbors and friends would often ask for my help and thank me with small tips, which I used to buy school supplies. Over the years, my love for animals grew, and I eventually adopted my own dog, whom I’ve been caring for for the past nine years. I offer flexible availability on weekends at any time of day, which can be especially helpful in case of last-minute needs or emergencies. I kindly ask that you notify me at least three days in advance for any pet-sitting requests. I prioritize caring for pets in the comfort of their own home, as familiar surroundings can help reduce stress. I also enjoy taking them for walks in their neighborhood to keep them active and happy. I would have flexibility on weekends at any time of the day for greater comfort or if an emergency arises. 2 days before let me know about day sitting. Thank you I would care for your pet in the comforts of their space, sometimes it is easier when they recognize the space and additionally take them out for walks in their neighborhood.

“I can't say enough good things about Vicenza, (Viz). She has been taking care of Ruby, our ShiPoo for over a year now. She takes her on daily walks and occasional overnight stays.

Having known Ian for years, I can confidently say he’s trustworthy, responsible, and experienced. I highly recommend Ian to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”

Ashley was absolutely incredible. Her communication was instantaneous, she took the best care of our girl without any issues. She even saved us last minute when we needed a late night walk. Highly recommend!
Kylie was great with my energetic one year old dog. She was punctual and shared great photos following the visit. She is clearly a dog lover and would book again!
Kellwin took excellent care of Beethoven! I had to request short notice and Kellwin made sure to provide updates during the walk. Would recommend!
Janet is amazing. First and foremost, she is reliable and on time. She is kind and compassionate and has the perfect demeanor with dogs - loving and friendly but firm and lets them know she is in charge. She walked my highly energetic dogs for an hour and they LOVED her. Thank you Janet.
Dana is great! She was extremely caring and communicated well ahead of the booking and throughout it. In the photos she sent you can tell my golden retriever Izzy was happy and loving life, even in the pouring rain, which didn’t phase Dana at all. Highly recommend!
