“Highly recommend Shelby. She treats our dog just like her own, which is exactly what we want in someone who is involved with us and our dog. She is tuckered out after her walks and we love the updates we get!”


“Izzy was great and our pups loved her! We reached out to Izzy last minute, as we needed someone to let our pups out/walk them while we were out of town unexpectedly. She came over and met them both ahead of time, and our very timid rescue dog immediately took to Izzy. She was on time each day, and let me know when she arrived and was leaving. She made sure their food and water was full, and locked the house when she left. We will definitely be reaching out to her next time we need some help!”

“Hallie walked my dog Tuck every day for a week, and I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided! She was always on time, incredibly attentive, and really thorough in making sure Tuck got the attention and exercise he needed. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Hallie clearly loves what she does, and it shows. I will definitely be using her again in the future and have already started recommending her to friends. Highly recommend!”



“Brittany was prompt and reliable. She did not seem at all turned off by my two dogs’ energy level and ‘enthusiasm’ (including jumping) when she met them. I believe she did a great job exercising them. They seemed relaxed and settled when I returned home. I appreciated how well she kept in contact and the pictures she sent!”

Laberta W.
“Laberta is an absolute gem!!! I have a high energy, trouble making Vizsla puppy (named Ruby) that I thought only a mother could love . But Laberta showers Ruby with love and attention … so much so that my pup gets so excited to see her that she doesn’t even notice that I’m leaving for the weekend ! I know my dog is high maintenance but Laberta takes her in with loving, open arms … she spends quality time with Ruby outside walking and playing . (I know because she sends updates and pictures which I love because it makes for worry-free getaways 😊 … and that is priceless ) . I couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter for my fur baby ❤️”
