“Janna was great with Leslie! She was prompt and took Leslie on some fun adventures in the neighborhood, and even included a bit of time to play with Leslie after her walks. Her reports were very thorough and we got great photos and videos each day. We'll definitely be reaching out again when we need a dog walker!”
14. Oriana P.
“I highly recommend Oriana as your preferred pet caregiver! Being a dog parent, she's pretty adept at reading pet signals whether they need to go outside to potty, go on a walk, want cuddles or treats, or are not feeling well. Oriana is one of the few people I trust to watch my dog. I had urgent travel a few months after I adopted my beagle and was not familiar with dog boarding businesses, I had asked her if she could watch him. Oriana was very attentive to his needs (i.e. eating schedule, treats, etc.), gave me regular updates, and cared for him like her own.”
15. Alex U.
“Alex has been wonderful and patient with our new pup! We know that he is safe and having a great time. Our dog gets so excited for their walks together and comes back so happy!”
16. Kennedy G.
“Kennedy was absolutely wonderful! She gave me daily updates, was 100% reliable, and so accommodating! I will definitely be using her again to walk Darby as I return to the office.”
17. Dustin S.
“Dustin is a big dog lover! He has watched my dogs while I was on vacation and they adore him. My one dog that I rescued is scared of loud noises and has bad anxiety. He has no problem comforting her. He is a great guy and will keep your best friend safe.”
18. Alejandra B.
“Alejandra was incredibly responsive and really helped us out in a pinch, doing more than was originally asked of her. Grateful to have found her and will continue to use her services!”
19. Camila H.
“I appreciated Camila’s availability at a short notice on a holiday weekend. She and my 8.5 year old dog Luka met. I was highly satisfied with Camila’s friendliness yet professional manner. I look forward to asking Camila to walk Luka again.”
20. Abby M.
“Abby is a wonderful caretaker! She has been fostering neonate kittens and cats for as long as I can remember. She takes excellent care of all the animals that come into her care. She is able to give all kinds of meds including giving sub Q fluids. Abby is also great at keeping up with tracking when meds and vaccines are due as well. I would 100% love Abby to care for my animals all the time!!”
