“Dmitra is the best!!! She walks our goldendoodle Griffin twice a week and is really amazing with him! Because of our schedules I usually have to tell her only a day or two in advance which days we need her help each week and she’s always really flexible and great about it! We also have cats that like to try to sneak out of the house, and she’s great about keeping an eye on them to make sure they stay in while she takes Griffin out for his walks. So glad we found her!!!”


“Lauren is fantastic! She’s a great communicator and our dogs love her. She’s very reliable.”


“Brittani has been absolutely amazing! I asked her to come have a visit with our pup so she could meet him and she was kind enough to fit us her schedule. She has always been so responsive and timely, something I really appreciate while I’m away at work. Her daily pictures are awesome! I now have these amazing portraits of our dog I can show off. We love Brittani !”

“Annie is incredible and was truly a lifesaver! My AC broke and Annie was able to scoop Goose up and watch him while maintenance resolved the issue. She is a great communicator and takes great pictures throughout the day. Goose loves spending time with her. It’s been great working with her!”


“Maddi is absolutely wonderful! She brings such a positive energy and we so appreciate the care attention she gives to Mom’s dog Brady. So grateful for her help!”


About: I've lived with animals pretty much my entire life. I've had two dogs, two rats, a mouse, a ferret, and seven cats total. I often pet sit my friends and families dogs and cats and even guinea pigs and geckos. So while I don't have any trained professional experience in pet care, I do have an abundance of personal experience. I absolutely adore animals so I will do my best to treat yours with as much care as I have. This is my full time job so I will be available for all of my listed services every day of the week from 8 am - 10 pm preferably in day light hours. I am very flexible with my hours so I can prioritize your schedule. While walking your pet I will remain vigilant to ensure its safety. I will follow any rules/instructions given to me such as how/if to interact with other people/animals.


About: Hi! We're Nikki and Stefano. We've both had dogs in our homes as long as we can remember and won't ever have it any other way. We've had dogs ranging from toy chihuahuas to heelers to our current pups, a Great Pyreneese/lab and an Australian Shephard/Red Heeler. So any dog size or breed is fine with us. We love spending time with animals and we would love to get a chance to meet new dog friends and give them the same love and attention we give to our own pups while also meeting and learning more about each different breed and their personalities. My wife works from home and i work in the office 3 days out of the week, so we are 100% flexible with our days to watch, walk, or play with your pups. I work in the office Tuesdays through Thursdays. My wife works from home and is available to watch and play with the pups all day. We have a good sized fenced back yard that our two dogs love to run around in so your dogs will have plenty of time to hang out and play outside or relax and take naps inside.

“Super communicative! Archie was really happy to walk with her!”


“Alex has been absolutely wonderful! He has been very patient with Finn and allowed him to take his time warming up to him. Alex sends me daily photos which I really appreciate, and has offered to spend more time with Finn outside after noticing that Finn was enjoying it. I plan on continuing to use Alex’s services and highly suggest him!”


“Christof is excellent! I moved to the area and last minute needed to find a new dog walker. I contacted Christof the night before and he helped my dog the next afternoon! He let me know in advance his availability which I appreciate greatly because I am a planner. He follows all of my instructions perfectly and takes into account my dog's senior age, quirks, the weather conditions, etc. to make sure my dog is as safe as possible. Dogs are great judges of character and my dog has been happy with Christof from the moment they met. My dog and I are thrilled to have found Christof! I highly recommend him to anyone in need of pet care!”

“Just had our first walk with Connor last night and it went great! My dog came back happy and relaxed. You can tell Connor is a natural with dogs-kind, attentive, and reliable. Looking forward to more walks!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs, both drop in and overnight visits, for two years now. I’ve dealt with small and large dogs and know how to handle them. I’ve grown up with multiple dogs in one house and know the different needs each dog requires! I’m currently a student so I am busy most week days but can walk morning and evenings Monday-Wednesday. I can dog sit, extra visits, and last minute appointments Thursday-Sunday! Any rules and information I need are required before I enter the home. And for non emergency appointments a meeting with the dog and you present is preferred.


“Natalie made me feel like I could easily leave town & enjoy myself knowing Ozzy was being well cared for! Not only does she have a great vibe that I picked up on, but Ozzy did as well. She walked him, played with him, & fed him while I was away. I would 100% recommend her services!”


“Ashley was a dog whisperer! She walked my recently adopted adult dog with a traumatic past. Ashley never imposed on my dog’s space and spent time each day making my dog feel safe. By day 3, my dog was greeting her at door and happily walking with confidence. I am so grateful for Ashley and her kind and patient energy. I highly recommend you book her services if you want peace of mind that your dog is being treated with respect by a mindful person.”


About: Growing up, my household always had at least two dogs and a cat. Very early on, I took in the majority of their day to day care, and I’ve since tended to the pets of friends, family, and neighbors. I’m currently on the job hunt, so I have ample time to shower your fur baby with love! I’m available every weekday beginning in the late morning, and I have a lot of flexibility if your pet needs some extra time. I pay close attention to your pet’s body language so I can respect their boundaries and gain their trust. I am always gentle and patient.

About: Hey I’m Nick! I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently work at a doggy daycare, so I’m very experienced with pups of all personalities and sizes. I treat every dog like family and love making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I left an availability schedule on my profile! Here’s a key to read it! Key: Green = Available Red = Unavailable Yellow = Dependent on circumstances I will check dog bowls for food and water hourly, take them for a walk, clean up yards, and do any other tasks that I am given!

About: I adore all types of dogs, big or small. Years of experience have taught me that the most important thing is respecting their space and boundaries while making sure they have everything they need. I also believe that it is incredibly important they have an outlet for their energy, so I am willing to play with them for as long as it takes - sometimes fetch has gone on for over an hour. Again, safety is of the utmost importance and I have experience taking care of all sorts of dogs with different temperaments, including some escape artists, who were all safe and sound when their families returned. I'm currently working part-time so I have some incredible flexibility when it comes to taking care of your pups! I'm willing and able to wake up early or stay up late as needed and I can spend plenty of time making sure your pets get all the love and affection they deserve. Your pet's safety is my top priority and while I have experience caring for a variety of animals, including some with serious medical conditions, I believe that their families have the best understanding of what they need. As such, I am happy to work with you to determine the best means of caring for your pet, whether that includes particular leash attachments, the use of indoor gates, external gates. I also have a fenced in backyard for any pets that might end up staying the night.

“Collin watched my 2 cats for a week while I was on vacation and couldn’t have done a better job. He’s kind, considerate, and cares immensely about animals! One of my cats has diabetes and requires nightly medication and he was able to give my cat the pill with no issues. Collin not only fed the cats twice a day, but also played with them and even cleaned the litter box. He’s truly a great pet sitter and even better person, and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough for any of your pet needs!”
