“Wendi was the best. She walked our dog for two weeks twice a day for 30 minutes each time. Our dog grew to love her. He would sit and wait at the door for her to come. This made us so relaxed while recovering from surgery. And we booked her again for three additional days.”

“Grace is a gem! She has taken care of my sweet pup, Hera, a couple times now and I always feel at ease knowing she's in loving hands.

Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

20. Jordan H.
About: I've taken care of my family pet for the last several years, and I love being around my partners two doggies. I have been around super cuddly dogs, more relaxed, and big and small. I am currently a student at the law school in the Old Port and looking for check-ins and walks around my schedule, including mornings before school, evenings, and in-between! I can help with feeding dogs and cats, and crate them if need be. Happy to take dogs on walks by leash wherever they feel comfortable!
