About: I have always had a dog in my house, even now. I know it's hard to leave your dogs when heading away. I hope that I can help! I can give medication, take your dog for walks during the evening and weekends and can provide extra love when you are not around. I have had experience with dogs who are not dog friendly with others, so I am able to handle dogs that might not get along, but that doesn't mean the can't have fun throwing the ball or go for walks (I've learned where to find the walks where other dogs won't be). Any other questions, please feel free to reach out! I’m available on weekends for walks or boarding. During the week, I am available after 4pm for walks and feedings until you get home from work. We have a fenced in yard and dogs are welcome on couches and beds, in this house! I also have a 3 year old son who might be a bigger dog lover than we are, to offer additional affection!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and am also comfortable caring for cats. I’ve provided pet care for neighbors and have experience managing different personalities and energy levels. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience working at a veterinary hospital and a zoo, where I learned safe handling, how to recognize signs of stress or illness, and how to maintain proper care routines. I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable, and I’m especially comfortable with active dogs as well as providing gentle care for younger or more sensitive pets. I am also quite the green-thumb if you need your plants watered!🌸🪴🌼🌱🌻 My schedule is very open and flexible, which allows me to easily accommodate pet care throughout the day and week. I’m available for morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits, and I can adjust my routine to meet each pet’s specific needs, including walks, feeding times, and check-ins. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in my client’s home. I am very attentive and detail-oriented, and I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and any special instructions. I ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure and supervise pets closely during play. I pay close attention to behavior and can recognize signs of stress or illness. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep routines consistent to help pets feel comfortable and safe.
“Jeff is a wonderful walker for our dog Jesse. He's prompt and super responsive on messages, and is willing to work with you on your schedule. Jesse comes back happy from her walks, and I'm really happy to have Jeff's help.”

“So happy we found Erica to help out twice a week taking our energetic dog for a midday walk! She’s responsive on the app, clearly loves dogs, is respectful of our home, and always leaves a picture and update after the walk. We’ve settled into a nice routine and it gives me so much peace of mind while I’m at work knowing Erica will be stopping in.”

“She was amazing! Very accommodating and enthusiastic about dogs. She went above and beyond when caring for my dog. It was my first time leaving my puppy, but Talia made me completely comfortable and confident in her ability to take care of her”

“Marisa has walked my dog Penny twice now and has been great! She cleaned up after Penny’s accident and fed her in the morning. My key was lost on the most recent walk, and Marisa was kind enough to bring my dog back to her home until I was able to come back. Appreciate the help!!”


About: I grew up with dogs. When I was 18 I co-adopted two pitbulls who lived out their lives with me. After college, I volunteered for Monster Milers taking shelter dogs from Street Tails Animal Rescue out for runs to help them burn energy and become more adoptable. My wife and I have adopted three times. A fawn pug who lived until 9 years old, a black pug who lived until 17 years old, and a Alaskan Malamute/Husky/Amstaff mix (107lbs) that lived until he was 13 and we recently lost. I'm good with all furry friends big and small and adjust my approach based on the dogs energy. I currently have a ton of flexibility outside of my kids to help with your pups, but generally, I'm home a lot and very active so lots of room to get your pup out for long walks and exercise/stimulation. I do not have a fenced in yard, and always keep my dogs on leashes until they were absolutely ready to listen solely to my commands. I use a gentle leader that helps minimize impact on their throat and also is very effective with pulling, but can be flexible to your sitch.
“Craig is great!! Always here on time and Higgins, my terrier, gets new route each time. This evening walk relieves a lot of stress for me and my husband- knowing that we can rely on Craig.”

“Alison has been great with our puppy for walks! She gives him lots of scratches and snuggles while we’re out and we feel better knowing she’s spending time with him!”

About: I have taken care of my own dogs and friends/family dogs for over 11 years. I grew up in a house with German Shepherds and small mixes. I've now taken care of my rescue cat for the last 5 years. I love to take dogs out on walks and hikes to get the most out of their outdoor time and make them comfortable in their home I own my own company which makes my schedule flexible to take care of your animals at all different hours of the day. I have some weeks when I am unavailable on weekends, but that will be pre-determined way ahead of time for easy scheduling purposes. I will always make sure that your pet has everything in place that it needs to to maintain their daily routine when you're out of town or at work while they're at home.
“Rachael is amazing! She always goes above and beyond for our elderly dog. She is so kind and takes great care of our dog. We are so appreciative of everything she does! Thank you Rachael!”


About: I have experience caring for my 2 kitties and helping friends and family with their cats, dogs, and even fish! I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have a flexible schedule right now and can be consistent with pet care. I’ll be starting nursing school in evenings this fall, so I’m working and saving. I’m available most days for walks, check-ins, and sitting, and I stick to your pet’s routine! I focus on keeping pets safe and comfortable. I have two cats, so I’m used to daily care and routines. I will follow instructions closely and make sure pets are supervised and stress free.

About: I've had a family dog for 6 years now and I love taking care of her, she means the world to me. I've also cared for neighbors' dogs for both single days and overnight multiple days. I enjoy cats as well, I don't own any but I have taken care of a neighbor's cat multiple times and I have numerous friends who own cats that I enjoy being around. I'm currently a student and I will be doing clinical rotations at hospitals this summer so I am not available every day, however they only take place 3 days a week so I am completely free 4 days a week and have some limited time after clinicals one day. I recently moved and do not have any pets at my current location. I could take a pet to my place but prefer going to a client's home.
“Met Alexandra for a Meet & Greet and she immediately put my mind at ease! I have a senior dog and a young one and from the moment she walked in she showed that she understood their varying needs even by just greeting them! She listed to all my notes and concerns and made me feel like she would care for them as if they were her own! She is a true dog person and that’s the type of care giver every dog owner needs!”

“Briana booked with us on short notice, assisted us during holiday travel and took great care of our older dog! She was consistently on time, made sure he had his medications and always shared photos. We appreciate her helping to keep him safe and happy while we were away.”

About: I’ve had a dog for two years now and he is my favorite thing in the world. I am good with walks and staying over to watch any type of dog or other pet. I am free most days of the week so feel free to reach out anytime! I will try to get back to you as soon as possible. I care for pets by playing with them, making sure they are properly fed, and always keeping an eye on them so nothing goes wrong

Ashley walks our puppy a few times a week and is consistent, reliable and communicative. We welcomed a rescue puppy into our home unexpectedly and were fortunate Ashley was able to help us right away. On a personal level, Ashley is a sweet and caring person and gained our immediate trust.

I never had the opportunity to meet Allison because she doesn't do first time meetings with the dog or owner, but the person who was staying at our house said she was lovely, and our dog seemed happy. She sent notes and pictures, which was nice. I only wish I had been able to meet her.
