1. Laura N.

“Laura is very responsible, super helpful, and does her job perfectly. My furry friend loves her and is super happy every time he sees her. I recommend her and will continue to use her services.”


2. Kaylee K.
“If you’re lucky enough to book with her, your pet is in the best hands possible. She’s not just a natural with animals—she’s a deeply attentive, loving, and intuitive caregiver. From early morning walks to late-night cuddles, she makes sure each one of them feels safe, happy, and genuinely loved. She’s the kind of person who notices the tiniest changes in their behavior, adjusts their care if they seem off, and never cuts corners. Whether it’s giving medications, preparing a special diet, or just spending extra time with a shy or anxious pet, she meets each animal where they are with patience and compassion. She’s also incredibly responsible and communicative. You’ll get updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for like family.”

“Thanks so much for walking our best girl while we were away! Mai responded quickly to all communication and let us know when something looked awry right when our house sitter accidentally left the front door open before leaving for work. We will definitely use Mai again!”


4. Julie K.
About: I raised a puppy when I was 11 years old who lived for a really long time before she passed and now currently have a adopted rescue from South Korea. Currently working part time and have more time to spend with other dogs! I would love meet your dog and give them all the love. I love getting my steps in so we could go on walks together, but also if your dog just needs some attention at home I would love to stop by and let them on a bathroom break and give them lots of love!
