“Meghann was absolutely amazing with our dog! Our dog can be a bit shy, but she loved Meghann right away! Meghann gave our dog her daily walks and spent time making sure she was settled and taken care of. We will definitely book with Meghann again! ❤️”


5. Sin Hang L.

“I had a great experience with Sin as my dog walker! She is responsive, punctual, and incredibly gentle and sweet towards Ziggy, who clearly loved walking around the neighborhood with her. He would come home happy and often take a little nap afterward, which is a sure sign he had a great time. I’ll definitely be booking her again for weekly walks! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and attentive dog walker.”

“There’s no other person I would trust to leave my pet with than Varshini. She is so kind, empathetic and patient that I would blindly trust her with taking care of my cat anytime! I love that she goes out of her way to make it a comfortable experience for everyone involved!”


7. Nancy J.
“I can't express how grateful I am for Nancy! As a pet owner, finding someone trustworthy and caring to look after my furry family member can be difficult, but Nancy exceeded all expectations. From the very first meeting, I could tell my pet felt comfortable and at ease in her presence. She’s attentive, patient, and goes above and beyond to ensure that my pet feels loved and cared for. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just giving extra cuddles, she’s always reliable and truly passionate about animals. I’m confident that she’ll be an amazing caregiver and provide exceptional care for every pet she looks after!”

10. Jennifer V.
“I can not speak highly enough about the care and love Jennifer has shown all my pets! For more than a decade she has been part of the lives of two of my dogs and my cat and I am so grateful for every minute. I live part time out of the country and when I am away, she stays in my home and treats them as they were her own. This summer our very old cat got ill while we were away. Jennifer let us know immediately and arranged for her to see a vet. She made sure she received fluids and medication and was comfortable until we could get home to be with her. This is something that I hope no pet-sitter has to go through, but I am so grateful if someone had to, it was someone who not only acted in the most responsible way, but also in the most caring. I could go on and on and on about how amazing Jennifer is. If you are looking for an amazing individual to stay and your home and care for your pets, look no further!”


11. Alice H.
“I met Alice through a mutual friend who told me she loves dogs and took great care of her dog. While I went on a 2 week vacation, Alice helped watch Pekoe my corgi. Prior to the trip, Alice asked me about Pekoe’s medical history, dietary needs/restrictions and temperament. Everyday she messaged me pictures and videos of Pekoe having so much fun at her place. She had a lot of toys and room for Pekoe to run around. She was also very responsive which I really appreciate. I had peace of mind and was able to enjoy my trip without having to worry about my furbaby. I highly recommend Alice as a petsitter as she takes great care of the dogs as if they were her own.”


12. Tyrone A.

“Tyrone did an excellent job walking my dog, Ziggy. He arrived on time and had a friendly, approachable demeanor that immediately put me at ease. Ziggy warmed up to him right away and went with him without any hesitation. After the walk, Tyrone took the time to provide a thoughtful briefing on how the experience went, which I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend Tyrone to anyone looking for a reliable and professional dog walker!”


13. Sadah S.

“Sadah went above and beyond for each walk and my girls loved her! Don't hesitate to book with her!”


14. Thomas L.

“Thanks so much!”


15. Elba C.

About: Hello! My name is Maila. Since the age of 10, I’ve had all kinds of pets (dogs, cats, fish, and parakeets), so I really can’t remember a time my household wasn’t filled with critters waiting to be cared for.

I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I work night shifts, so I am currently available to care for pets between 11am to 4pm every day. I can be available anytime during weekends upon request.
