“I had a husky (Frankie Balto) that had a lot of energy, was tearing up my house while I was out, and had a few friends get overwhelmed when doing me a favor 🤣. Kaltrina took the time to understand what was making him so dang crazy. She’s been helping me ever since when I go out of town I keep telling her to go pro!”

“Lucinda cared for our family dogs for years and proved herself to be a loving, detail-oriented, and absolutely exemplary caretaker. We felt completely at ease every time we left home knowing Lucinda would not just make sure our animals were safe but also that she would joyfully take pleasure in their company and tell us all about our time away. Her compassion and dedication are above and beyond.”

19. Lucy C.
About: I've walked dogs with friends and family my whole life. Also caring for a variety of dogs and animals of all sizes from bunnies to cows. I've also cared for both suburban and city dogs and adapted to their walk/play needs (even trekking up a 4 story walk up 5 times a day). I love energetic animals and appreciate relaxed ones. I'm currently freelancing so have a very flexible schedule to pet sit. I like to wake up early and spend a lot of times outside especially this season so can go on multiple walks of varying lengths a day. My schedule is flexible enough to have lots of spare time to spend supervising and commuting to walk/watch animals. I am unable to take care of extra pets in my home with four cats.
20. Bibo L.
About: "Having cared for both dogs and cats over many years, I've developed a deep understanding of pet behavior and individual needs. What sets me apart is my flexible, customized approach to each animal – I believe there's no such thing as a 'one-size-fits-all' when it comes to pet care. For dogs, I tailor each walk to match their energy level, age, and personality. Whether it's a playful puppy who needs training reinforcement during walks, an athletic adult who loves a good workout, or a senior who prefers gentle strolls, I adjust my pace and attention accordingly. I'm particularly skilled at: Reading pet body language and adapting to their comfort level Creating engaging walking routes that keep pets stimulated Maintaining consistent routines that pets thrive on Providing detailed updates after each visit Being flexible with scheduling to accommodate your needs Your pet's safety and happiness are my priorities, and I treat each animal in my care as if they were my own. Let me provide your furry family member with the personalized attention they deserve! I am working from home and my school very flexible during the day, evening or weekend. You can also drop the dog to my house I have a dog at my house if your dog needs company, I also have a big yard. I can stay at my client’s home too
