1. Julia R.
“Julia was terrific! She showed up for a last minute request. She was friendly, prompt and flexible. My dog was very comfortable with her at the outset. I was so impressed that since she needed to address something at home she offered to take my dog with her rather than give me less than the full hour walk.”

11. Leeann E.
About: I’m 25 years old. I own two dogs myself (King Charles Spaniel mixes). One of which has a severe medical condition which requires medication. So I am comfortable giving dogs pills. I love them both to pieces. I have also walked my neighbors dogs ever since I was 15. I know CPR and first aid. Unfortunately, I can’t administer shots to a dog. Reason being that I’ve never done it before. Also I’m not a big fan of needles and I don’t think the dogs are either. I love exercise so we would both be happy at the end of the day. In the end, I promise to care for your dogs like they were my own. Thank you for considering me to be your dog walker. I’m currently working another job, but I’ll make time to play with your pups! I work mostly nights, so morning time is best for me. I’m sure we’ll work out the best situation for all of us. I have a fenced in yard and a very friendly dog that can keep your fur baby company. I can crate my dog if needed. I also have pee pads ready for puppies and lots of toys.
12. Jennifer G.
“Jen is a loving and caring pet sitting who treats your animals like they are her own. She is reliable and trust worthy and is willing to move her schedule around to accommodate pet needs.”
13. Sarah W.
“Sarah was amazing! She was on time and very friendly. Both dogs took to her very quickly and one of them usually takes a while to warm up to people. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker.”
14. Tricia B.
“I’ve know Tricia for a very long time and she has watched my German Shepard often. She is loving and caring and is so good with my dog. She takes the time to play with her and and give her the attention she needs! I’m never worried when I leave my dog with Tricia. I would definitely recommend anyone leaving their beloved pet with Tricia!”

18. Jon P.
“Jon is a very responsible person who truly enjoys caring for animals. He is very trustworthy, kind, and incredibly dependable. You can tell he truly treats every visit with your pets as if they were his own. Even my anti-social cat (who never emerges from under the bed) greeted him and immediately trusted him! I would highly recommend him for pet sitting of all kinds. He does a great job caring for my pets while I'm not home, you will love him... but most importantly your pets will love him too!”
19. Camille S.
“Camille has been my next-door neighbor for 19 years. She is a true dog lover and has had one the entire time I’ve known her. Her current dog is Charlie, an Alaskan shepherd. She is very conscious of the needs of various breeds of dog, and she make sure that Charlie has exercise every day and a minimum of two fairly long walks. I would definitely recommend her for dog walking, and I have teased her about being her first customer.”
