1. Alexander G.



“Alex is just what we needed for the bulldog. He found a way to get this couch potato out of the house and moving during our long days at work. As an added bonus he brings the packages in from the porch. Scheduling has been easy and Alex hasn’t missed any appointments.”


2. Iris R.

“Iris dropped in on our dog and cat while we were away. She also came back in the afternoon to walk the dog. She did a wonderful job and kept in good contact with us and sent pictures. She was gracious enough to add a walk in the morning and help us with payment instructions. We will definitely have her back!”


3. Lillian H.

“Lillian was a great companion to both our pets while we were away for the holiday. We were so happy to connect with someone willing to drive our dog to an area of the neighborhood with flatter streets. I'm sure he was happy too! Would definitely recommend.”

9. Melissa Z.
“Melissa has almost 30 years of experience caring for cats, both from our childhood and as a pet owner herself. She has a natural connection with animals, especially cats, and I’m convinced she likes them more than people! Melissa is the kind of person who will spoil and shower any animal with love and attention, making sure they feel safe and cared for. I know she would provide exceptional, loving care to any pet in her charge.”


10. Carson M.

“Carson was great! My girl is anxious and a puller. She was nervous and very barky when he got here for their walk but he was very good with her and I can tell upon their return she had the best time. He ran with her a little at the park down the street which is one of her favorite things. She was so happy and loves him so much now.”

12. Erin grey K.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats my entire life. Throughout my life I have also volunteered with several different animal non profits. I can't imagine my life without the companionship of my dogs and I would love to share that love helping you out with yours. I work full-time, but have a super flexible schedule. I have plenty of time in my day-to-day to help you out with your cat or dog. I have a fenced yard and two dogs of my own but because of their high maintenance personalities I think my services are best focused caring for your pets in your environment or on walks.

Their priority appears to be to improve an animals quality of life in any way they can manage. Any animal that they encounter is treated with love and respect.”

18. Gyllian M.

“A++ I'm sure if you are reading this you are trying to figure out how to give your fur baby the best life possible when adulting gets in the way. Gyllian is definitely the answer! She is friendly and has a true caring compassion for animals. It's a huge load off my stress level knowing Zeus is happy and in good hands. Which brings us to the most important part of this review. When Zeus gets home from his walks he does house zoomies. And when I finally get home from work and ask him how is walk with Gyllian was he gets so excited and I get extra lovings so I know he is happy! Book with Gyllian, you will be happy that you did!!!”
