1. Meghan M.

“Meghan was awesome! We had to go to a wedding and we're unsure of whether or not we'd need to stay overnight. She was super flexible and was able to accommodate us for the extra day. My dogs LOVE her and took to her immediately- which says a lot, as my chihuahua is not the friendliest. Will definitely be using her services again. Highly recommend!”

6. Savana R.


“Savana is kind, professional, and brave. We had an emergency and had 6 dogs at my parents house. She never met our pups but with instructions she went in and took care of all 6! While the pup played a little to hard and hurt his sister, Savana cleaned her up well, lat us know about what was happening. So professional and kind about the situation. I would recommend her services to my family and friends!”

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. Brenda & Francis W.

“Brenda and Frank made drop-ins for my girl while I was out of town. They sent me lots of pictures of their visits which made me feel comfortable!”


13. 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.”


14. Emily B.

“Emily is wonderful! Super responsive and flexible. I’m sure Mabel would love to see her again :)”


15. Jon P.
“Jon is a reliable guy who cares about animals like they’re his own. Enjoys walking the dogs to give them plenty of exercise, might even take them on a run!”


16. Camille S.
“I’ve known Camille for over 25 years, she’s always been a pet friendly person, she’s is a devoted, caring and dedicated person, in my opinion, she’ll do a tremendous job handling pets. Joe V.”




17. Keren A.

“Keren did a phenomenal job! Very prompt and always and available to communicate. Max loved her and seemed to not even know we were not in town. Highly recommend her.”




18. Jake & Mischa C.

“My wife and I were nervous to leave our dogs with new people as they gave always stayed with family . Jake and Mischa made an effort from the first meeting to reassure us that our pets were in good hands and focused on getting to know them. They stayed in communication with us through out the duration of the service. They provided great photos that captured our dogs personalities well. We also figured being a husband and wife pairing that only one at a time would come, however during every visit they were both present which meant our dogs were able to receive more love during each visit. The final visit my wife and I were home and you could see our dogs were still very happy to see them. We will not hesitate to utilize them again the next time we go away.”


19. Sarah W.

“Sarah is absolutely wonderful! Love for animals, incredibly kind and always on time. Consistently feel at ease when trusting her with my dog and cat. A++++ highly recommend!”


20. Jacalyn S.
“Jacalyn is amazing! Not only does she provide excellent TLC to my dog and cats while I am away, she also cares for my chickens! Jacalyn is trustworthy, very caring and conscientious. I am very comfortable having her in my home. Jacalyn is meticulous, detailed, honest, and offers affordable pet sitting services that are always very accommodating. I don't trust anyone else to care for my pets other than Jacalyn. Definitely a five-star service!”
