“Maddalena is so helpful and flexible! I appreciate her thinking ahead- she saw it would be raining so she took our dog on a quick walk and then played with her inside. Dallie still got some energy out, and we couldn't be happier. :)”

About: I’ve been a proud rescue dog mom for 6 years and understand how much our pets mean to us. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, or just keeping your pet company while you're away, I’ll treat them like family. I have experience caring for both dogs and comfortable with pets of all temperaments. I am especially sensitive with dog with separation anxiety as my own dog suffers from that as well. I'm reliable, patient, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I bring a strong background in responsibility and trustworthiness from my job as an Asset Protection Manager.

I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, and any special instructions you provide. I pay close attention to each pet’s comfort level and personality, whether that means giving them space to settle in or showering them with affection. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and aim to keep things tidy and calm. In my home, pets have a cozy, safe environment with plenty of love, supervision, and room to relax. Communication is key, so I always keep pet parents updated with messages and photos for peace of mind.

“Allison was very timely and professional. She was quick to communicate and had no issues with any changes of plans. We would recommend her to others and plan to reach back out to her in the future!”


About: I have had pets my entire life. At this time, I am petless, so I would love to love on your pets. Family and friends have relied on me to watch, walk, and play with their furry friends. I have several references I work full time, but I have a very flexible schedule that sometimes allows me to work from home. Your dog, however, will never be alone because my husband is home during the day. I take your dog for a morning and night walk and on weekends three short walks. I also play with them. They can sleep on the bed and furniture

“I cannot recommend Layla highly enough! They did an absolutely amazing job taking care of my dog. From the very beginning, they were professional, reliable, and incredibly kind. My dog immediately warmed up to them, which is rare—and honestly, says everything. They went above and beyond every single day: sending updates, photos, and even adjusting the walk schedule when needed. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and treat each pet like their own. I noticed a real difference in my dog’s mood and energy—she came home happy, well-exercised, and clearly bonded with them. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive, this is the dog walker for you. I'm so grateful we found them and will definitely be booking again!”


About: My entire life has been spent with dogs (of all ages!). I grew up in a household with dogs, and was included in their training as a young girl. I began dogsitting for family in high school and college, which I LOVED doing. I dreamed of having a pup of my own, but had to wait until I finished school. That's when Wrigley chose me at the shelter. He wrapped me around his little paws right away, and before I knew it I was a proud parent to a rambunctious 4-month-old puppy! ❤️ When he was around 2 years old, it became evident that he was suffering from bad doggy anxiety. I contacted a behaviorist that I've known for years that works at his vet's office (I call her his therapist 😂), and began sessions to find ways to help him. The sessions were more about me learning how to navigate him through situations so that he could see that not everything is scary. He is now 9.5 years old and doing wonderfully. The experience opened my eyes to many things that I hadn't experienced in my previous nearly 30 years of being with dogs. I am now incredibly attuned to the behavior of all dogs and the signs that they're beginning to feel anxious. This knowledge has afforded me the opportunity to help dogs out of situations that they're uncomfortable with. I'm not afraid to ask someone not to pet or to stop petting a dog that is showing signs of feeling uncomfortable in a situation. They can't use words, so I will speak for them! I will never force a dog to do something if their actions are telling me that they don't want to do it. I feel that dogs are the most pure creatures on Earth, and feel it's my duty to treat them as such. I am so grateful for the knowledge gained from having Wrigley, and his anxiety, in my life. It has made me love dogs even more than I already did. I have cared for dogs as young as 6 weeks and as old as 14 years. I have assisted in, or led, the training of 4 dogs. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. I also love to walk! I walk at least 4 miles per day and love every minute of it. I'd love to have your pup join me on a walk! I'm also available for drop-in visits (which would include loving on your pup!) and overnight stays while you're away. I always enjoy getting updates about Wrigley when I'm away from him, and plan to extend the same peace of mind to you. I would love nothing more than to make some new 4-legged best friends! I currently have a very flexible schedule. I can accommodate daily walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. I will likely be available to care for your pets during your upcoming spring and summer vacations! My schedule will become less flexible toward the end of summer, but I anticipate that I'll still have some availability to make (or continue) new doggy friendships! I currently live in a townhome in an apartment complex, and the environment isn't ideal for some dogs (especially those who live in a single family home) as you can frequently hear the next door neighbors, neighboring pets, etc., which can cause stress for some pups. With the comfort of the dog being my utmost priority, I have decided that I will not be offering boarding in my home at this time. I would be happy to come stay at your home with your pup (or pups), though! Wrigley would love to join me and play with some new friends (with your permission of course). I would never bring him without having done a meet-and-greet for the dogs at a neutral location first, but I do find that having a non-human friend to play with can help pups feel at ease when their people are gone. Some dogs prefer only human friends, which is totally fine! I'm happy to be their substitute person while you're away. 🙂

About: Hello! My name is Emma, I enjoy spending lots of time outdoors and have a lot of free time to do so. I enjoy walks and a buddy would be lovely. I take pride in my work ethic and love taking part in the community as much as I am able. Thank you, I’m extremely excited and hope to work with you soon! I enjoy spending time outside, and walks with pets are more exciting than walks alone! I am looking to be active and get out, an pet care will be a priority! I care for pets with love and excitement, making sure they know they’re safe and comfortable with being walked or fed. I care for them with lots of love, I have training experience and can control large or small dogs. I am gentle and kind to all pets, and ensure that I leave better than how I found it and make sure the pet is all good to go

About: I have experience with dogs and cats my whole life. I have always been an animal lover! I currently have one 3 year old Golden Retriever who I love and adore. Having to leave my own dog to go on vacation or needing someone to drop-in or bring him for a walk can be stressful. My dog is my family and I want to know he is in good hands while I’m away. I will take care of your pets like they are my own! Every dog is different and needs different care and I will be there to give your dog their essential needs, exercise, belly rubs and love while you’re away! Any questions or concerns please feel free to reach out to me. I work part-time so I am very flexible for your pets needs and this gives me a lot more time to spend with them as well. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I am good with putting on harnesses and maintaining control while your dog walks on a leash.
