1. Kelly G.
“Animals love her. I've known Kelly since about 2015. We met in a shelter setting. Dogs love her and she was open to cat love also. I've seen cats that stay away most of the time, gravitate directly to Kelly. It was lovely watching the animals choose to start a relationship with her.”


2. Rachel V.

“Rachel great! We really appreciate her willingness to regularly walk two dogs, both of which need to learn a bit more leash etiquette. We highly recommend Rachel for your pet care needs!”


3. Melinda S.
“Melinda has been around animals her whole life. She has watched my 4 dogs on numerous occasions with great success. I have no doubt she would treat anyone else’s pet as her own and give them the love and care they need. Melinda is trustworthy and motivated.”


4. Danielle M.

“She is fantastic and Bruce loves her walks”


5. Kyleen W.

“Kyleen is amazing! Yesterday my dog had an accident in her crate with diarrhea everywhere. Kyleen responded to the situation with compassion and understanding- she even wiped down some of the mess so that it was easier for me to clean up once I got home! I would highly recommend her!”

“As always Jill is the best. She has been Lucy’s best friend for almost a year. It started out as an age necessity but now it’s because Lucy would be lost without her.”


8. Jade F.
“I have a 1 year old puppy named Bean. I have trusted Jade to watch her when I go on vacation. She has done this for me a few times. Sometimes we go on walks as well as she likes to do. She does a great job of taking care of Bean, and I will always ask her first to watch Bean. I know she’s loving towards other dogs as well because she enjoys taking Bean when she doesn’t even need watched.”


9. Joy M.

12. Laura M.
“I can't recommend Laura enough! From the moment I contacted her, I could tell she is very proffessional and truly passionate about animals. My dog, who can be a little picky with strangers and other dogs, took to his walker immediately. The service is always punctual, reliable, and communicates clearly, so I never have to worry about a thing. It’s also obvious she genuinely care about each dog’s well-being — my little Yorkie gets excited for his walks and comes back home happy and tired every time! It’s such a relief knowing my dog is in such great hands while I’m at work. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog walking service!”

19. Diana C.
About: I work at Metro East Humane Society and have handled both puppies and adult dogs of all sizes. I love all types of dogs and love working with them especially the shy ones! I currently work part time so I am available most of the time when I’m not working. I also have two of my own dogs and make sure I’m up early! I have been walking all types of dogs for the past year at the humane society, even the leash pullers and reactive dogs deserve to have their time outside. I have also learned to properly medicate dogs so if medications need to be given I can handle that as well.

I also want to become a dog trainer At home my dogs are let out every 2-3 hours, they once a day and they gets endless snuggles.
