“Matthew took our high energy high anxiety pup for walks twice a day while I took care of my terminally ill mom. He was reliable, friendly, and wonderful with Evie. Thank you Matthew!!!”


“Caroline was super accommodating with our young puppy's (and our) needs. She was up for us walking along with her, so our puppy could get feel more comfortable around her for the first meeting. Definitely will be requesting Caroline again for help with our puppy!”


“Veronica let us know promptly when we had an issue with our leash/collar to keep our dog Biscuit safe and sound! Thanks for being so great and being our go-to dog walker.”


“Mo loves Rebecca! She gets so excited when it's time for her walk and comes back so happy (and tired!). Rebecca is dependable, punctual, and friendly. Highly recommend!”


“Tina was very friendly, right on time for pick up & drop off! She shared all the things he did on the walk! I would definitely request her services again!”


About: I've walked and exercised dogs. Fed them. Snuggled them. I have a pretty laid-back personality, so I hardly stress out even when a dog is barking at me. I understand they need to get use to a person first sometimes. I work a super laid-back job from home so I have plenty of time to spend with any pets throughout the day, whether they be dogs who need walking or cats who need snuggling. I follow the routines outlined by my clients, and use my intuition to know what the pet is needed or feeling in the moment. It probably sounds corny, but it's the best way I know how to describe it. An attentive person can tell when they're upset or when they're at peace.

“Andrew was on time and totally respectful. He was very calm with our hyper puppy and did a great job of letting the pup come/warm up to him. We had a few requests (sitting at sidewalks and heeling by people) that make walking the pup a little more work. Andrew was more than happy to work with all of our requests. Definitely recommend!”


“Lavinia was very thoughtful and thorough. She was prompt, took very good care of our dogs and sent feedback with pictures. We couldn’t have been happier with her!”


“Jessica is wonderful with the pup and is very communicative and friendly :) Jessica gave a detailed report, and was a huge help! Thank you!!”


“Thanks, John for walking the ever-hurried Zeke...even in the rainy weather! Zeke always knows when you are coming...he sets his watch by your visits! Thx!”


About: Hi! My name’s Misa and I’ve been an animal lover since I was a kid. Once my family got our first dog when I was 8 years old, we were inseparable. She was my partner in crime~ Now I have a cat of my own and he owns my heart! He’s pretty food motivated so I clicker trained him, and he knows about 10 tricks :D He also has some health issues so I’m familiar with giving cats medication. I recently graduated with my master’s from the UR and I’m still in the process of looking for a job. Which means my schedule is super flexible to hang out with your pet! I’m detail oriented, reliable, and respectful of your space and your pets~ I'm currently on the job hunt after finishing my master's degree so my schedule is very flexible to accommodate drop-ins in the morning or afternoon as well as the evening~ I'll do my best to adhere to your pet's normal routine and of course be respectful of their boundaries. I'll follow any instructions given and reach out if any further clarification is needed!

“Priya has been super reliable when it comes to late night walks with my pup. She is very respectful with my space. I can see she really enjoys spending time with my dog. She even walks her longer than the expected time, which I greatly appreciate.”


“Jacqueline is very professional and takes great care of my dogs! She’s always on time and very responsive. She takes care of the house and makes sure to wipe paws from the snow or rain. Definitely recommend her services if you need a reliable walker/sitter!”


“Mackenzie is amazing! I’m super grateful that she came to my rescue to walk my 60lb 10-month old puppy. I know that my dog is still learning to walk on a leash, and I know that he is a lot to handle. McKenzie did wonderful with my puppy. I would rebook with her in a heartbeat.”



“Hannah is amazing and our pup loves her walks/visits with her! The photos and updates are lovely and we are grateful for the excellent care our nutty lab receives from Hannah!”


“Carla has done a great job with my dog! I have a pretty high energy dog and she has been able to handle her well, would definitely recommend her!”


About: I have been working at a dog daycare/boarding facility for over a year now, supervising up to 50 dogs a day. I care for and play with dogs of all sizes and ages, as well as give them baths when needed, feeding them meals, and giving needed medications. I have experience with many different kinds of dog behavior to know when they are anxious, scared, or if something is bothering them. Outside of work, I dog sit for family and friends, taking the dogs for walks and adventures so you will always be sure they will be tuckered out by the end of the day. I recently adopted a dog through K9 Orphans, Mia. She is a sweetheart with severe stranger danger (we are working on it), so I have experience with dogs who are reactive toward strangers. Through years of experience working with dogs, I’ve learned no personality is the same. I find it very important to learn what a dog’s specifics needs are and make sure they are met. My job at the daycare is full time and I work shifts that are between 6 and 8 hours (usually late morning through evening). Since I do work later in the day I have plenty of morning time to spend taking care of pets as well as flexibility to watch pets into the evening as well. Working at a dog daycare I experience everything that comes with working with dogs. I clean up anything you can think of, I understand dog behavior and when they are overwhelmed or anxious, and I know how to handle an aggressive dog. My main priority is to always keep them safe and happy.

“I can’t begin to express how grateful I am to have met Portia. She is SO skilled with challenging dogs, as evidenced by her work with my pup. Winston is known at his vet as “that dog (somewhat affectionately😆). He is a reactive, anxious rescue who takes a very long time to warm up to people; I knew it might be a struggle to find a regular walker for him. Portia has been incredibly patient, kind, and diligent in working with Winston. I’m thrilled that she’s earned his trust, because now I can stay at work all day without having to worry about running back during my lunch break to walk him. I’ve told many of my pet-parent friends about Portia, since she’s so incredible with Winston- I imagine she’s the same with other animals! I give Portia my very highest rating; Winston and I are incredibly lucky to have her in our lives!”


About: I have taken care of a variety of dog breeds since I was a kid, including one dog I cared for for several months. I have basic knowledge of training puppies and love staying active with pups outside. My schedule is quite flexible, and it varies day-to-day and week to week. I am able to accommodate for many different scheduling needs, including overnight stays. Safety always comes first, including making sure dogs are only where they are allowed to be in a home or in outside spaces. Leashes on when outside, doors locked.
