“Amy B was amazing! She walked our two dogs multiple days in a row. Each day she was on time and provided amazing photos and updates on their walks. Having Amy B was a stress lifted and being away knowing our dogs were taken such good care of was priceless. Thank you so much Amy B, I will absolutely use your services again in the future!! Pie and Romeo love you 😍”
“Anne had been a God send to me since I broke my ankle and can not walk my pup! Frankie gets so excited when she comes to pick her up. She is a super anxious pup and doesn’t just take to anybody so I’m thankful for Anne!”
“Morgan was amazing! We have (3) dogs. One elderly and another has anxiety. She was on time and handled all three, gave updates and Photos. She walked them on a variety of routes, and left notes after each visit.”
“Marlena came to the rescue when we needed last-minute assistance with dog walking. She’s super communicative, incredibly polite, and she was great with our dog. He enjoyed his long walks with her. Will book again!”
About: I absolutely love dogs and have been caring for them for years. What sets me apart is the genuine passion and experience I bring to every pet I look after. Whether it’s training playful puppies, making senior dogs feel comfortable, or just giving lots of love and attention, I treat every dog like part of our family. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being are always our top priorities. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine very easily because I have flexible schedules, which leaves me with plenty of free time. I am able to give pets the attention and care they deserve throughout the day. In some cases, even my roommate can help out if needed, making sure there’s always someone available to look after your pet. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with them by my side, and to me, they’ve never just been pets — they’re family. I honestly feel like the love and loyalty you get from a dog is something truly special, and sometimes I realize I’ve trusted and cared for dogs more easily than some people! In just the last few years, I’ve had the joy of caring for over 30 different dogs, each one leaving a little pawprint on my heart. Every dog has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one unique — whether they’re shy and gentle or playful and full of energy. When I’m taking care of your dog, whether at my home or yours, I do everything I can to make sure they feel relaxed, loved, and happy — like they’re on their own little vacation while you’re away. I’m big on keeping routines, because I know how important it is for dogs to feel at home. If there are any special diets, medications, or habits your pup needs, just let me know — I’ll stick to them closely. I’ll also send lots of photo and text updates because I know how much it means to see that your dog is doing well. I truly treat every dog like they’re my own — with love, patience, playtime, and plenty of cuddles if they want them. Can’t wait to meet your best friend and make sure they have the best time while you’re away!
About: Hi! I’m a senior in high school! I volunteer at the animal shelter! I love dogs so much I have 2 golden doodles! I am looking for something fun that I can do to save up for college! I get done school everyday at 10:30. I can come over anytime after that until anytime! I can do Sunday through Thursday. But u can be very flexible. I have two golden doodles at home. One mini and one full size. They are super sweet and I love them so much! I’ve had labs before the doodles so I know how to handle a bigger and hyper dog also!
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and love them. I’m used to big dogs and small ones, fast walkers and older, slower pups. I can also help with medication and feeding. I’m a teacher on summer break, happy to help with your dog walking and care needs! My schedule is flexible and I look forward to getting to know your four-legged friends. I am available for dog walks, long or short. I can also visit with your dog to keep them company and play with them to keep them entertained.
About: My wife and I have had dogs together for 19 years. In that time we’ve had 8 dogs, all rescues, ranging from puppy to senior. We have also done dog sitting for many others. We currently have two beautiful girls, both poodle mixes, 6 and 3 years old. We have done training classes and have lots of experience with senior dogs. I am an IT software engineer and I work from home. As a result I have a lot of flexibility in my work schedule, and can do drop-in visits or walks at various times during the day. We have a large fenced-in yard with a pool. We also have barriers to prevent small to medium dogs from getting to the pool, which we did when we had senior dogs.
About: I have been around dogs all my life, mostly big mutts, and actively caring for the family dog since the age of 10. I trained my parents last 2 labradors (always a fun breed). I have elderly dog experience both with a big malamute/shepherd mix and a diaper wearing rat terrier. So I am used to the individualized care that different dogs need. On the fun side of things, long walks, fetch and tug o war are my specialities! I can groom, bathe, give medications, play, walk, run, snuggle, scratch and provide whatever care you prescribe for your favorite family member! I currently work from home with a flexible schedule so I can run on your schedule. If dog sitting, I only need an couple hours in the afternoon to walk my parents dog. If your pup enjoys other dogs and you are comfortable with it they can come along too. My own 3 year old dog is walked at least 4 times a day. He is a lab so he enjoys long walks and trips to the beach, bay, hiking trails, and dog park. I make sure he gets tug of war time and he loves my cats laser pointer. We keep him supplied with dry food at all times because he does not overeat. He gets wet food once a week and an ample supply of people food whenever anyone is in the kitchen. But this is just how my family cares for our pups. I will strive to interrupt your dog's normal routine as little as possible.
“Idalis was prompt, kind and VERY responsive. You can tell when someone is a dog person! My dog Sage loves to rush in and say hello which can be intimidating, and Idalis did not seemed scared at all, opening Sage with open arms. She was earlier to the appointment than expected and listened to any tips/accommodations my dog or Idalis may need on their walk. She smiles anytime she interacted with Sage and my dog loved the energy. My dog is big on energy a person gives off. If you have anxiety about leaving your fur babies behind, Idalis is very responsive to text or messaging about your dog. She provides, pictures, videos…. Whatever you need to trust your dog is in good hands. I recommend her to anyone and for any breed of dog.”
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, I bring a calm and confident presence to every pet I meet. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy who needs structure and playtime or a senior dog who needs patience and gentle care, I tailor my approach to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I’ve cared for dogs recovering from surgery, administered oral medications, and have experience with leash training and crate training. I’m an excellent communicator and will keep you updated with plenty of photos and notes while you’re away so you feel totally at ease. I treat every pet like family and understand how important trust is when leaving your pup in someone else’s care. Whether it’s a weekend away or a long vacation, your dog will feel safe, loved, and at home. Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays throughout the week. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks or evening strolls, I can accommodate your dog’s routine and energy level. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priority, and I make sure they get the attention and care they deserve, no matter the day. In your home, I maintain your dog’s routine as closely as possible—feeding, walking, and playtime included. I keep things tidy, follow your instructions closely, and treat your space with respect. If caring for pets in my home, they’ll enjoy a calm, safe, and clean environment with plenty of supervision and affection. I never leave dogs unattended outside, and I always double-check gates, leashes, and collars to keep your pet safe and secure.

I am currently a graduate student and working an internship which allows me to care for animals in the mornings and late afternoons. The days I do have class I have marked myself unavailable. I have a fenced in yard and three very friendly dogs who love to run and play! My dogs love to go on walks which I hope I have the opportunity to do with yours as well or play in the yard!

About: Hi! My name is Kaylee. I have owned dogs, cats, reptiles, and birds my entire life. I am 25 years old, the first time I ever pet-sat was when I was about 10 years old for my neighbor. Since, my family, friends, and those same neighbors have relied on me numerous times to care for their fur babies and I am happy to do so. My parents’ youngest dog is only a year old and we got her when she was about 10 weeks old, so I do have experience with both puppies all the way up to older dogs. I am very patient and kind, animals are my passion and I will be sure to love your babies like you do! I moved out of my parents’ house and am not allowed to have any animals in my apartment, so I would love to watch your animals whenever I can! I currently work part time as a server during the weekends at night since it is the off-season, but I am always available during the day. During the week I am available both day and night! I will be happy to do whatever your fur baby needs whether it be long walks, changing pee pads, letting them outside, anything they need. I am a non-smoker. I will play with animals until they tire out and make sure that they have top care.

“Liz has been walking my dog Ollie for a few months now, and I couldn't be happier. Ollie can be a bit anxious, but Liz took the time to earn his trust and now they’re great together. She’s always on time, sends quick updates, and clearly cares about the dogs she walks. I’ve noticed Ollie is calmer and more relaxed on the days Liz comes by. Just a solid, dependable dog walker who really knows what she’s doing. Highly recommend!”
