“This is Attica, 3rd week walking Rocky, she’s really great with him. He looks forward to their walks. When he sees her coming up the steps, man he jumps up with pure excitement. That’s really a great feeling knowing he likes her so much. She’s a sweet quiet typing lady and great with dogs”


2. Carmen & Katie C.
“Carmen is definitely an animal lover! Funny thing is I think she prefers animals over humans! I would totally trust her with my animals! Great choice!”


3. Taryn T.

“Taryn is fantastic! She arrives when she says she will and takes care of my pups well! I highly recommend her. :-)”


4. Anna C.

“Anna walked our older pug while we were in Europe for two weeks (he was staying with my mom, but needed more consistent activity than my mom was able to provide with her schedule). Anna was very communicative and provided pictures and updates for each walk. Would definitely recommend Anna!”


5. Ashley P.


“Professional, accommodating, and reliable. Ashley did a wonderful job looking after my senior dog whilst I was out of town. I wouldn't hesitate to utilize her services again in the future!”


6. Wendy S.

“Wendy was FABULOUS! She was very kind and responsive, and was happy to modify the schedule when our needs changed. I would absolutely work with her again!”




7. Ron T.


“Ron has walked our dog several times during the day. We appreciate his punctuality and ability to help on short notice. He came to meet our dog before the scheduled walk and we really appreciated it. Good communication as well.”


8. Casey C.
“Casey was an incredible dog sitter! From the start, it was clear my dog was in great hands. Casey kept me updated with photos and messages, and my dog looked happy and well-cared for throughout the stay. I appreciated Casey’s flexibility with my last-minute changes and the genuine care shown for my pet. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”


9. Ronnie R.
“I have known Ronnie for over eight years and he has always shown great love and compassion towards all animals including dogs. Out of all pets that a person could have, I would say that Ronnie's favorite would have to be dogs. We use to be roommates and he watched other peoples dogs on numerous occasions and was very great at it. I could tell that he really enjoyed being around dogs. We also owned a cat together and he was such a great caregiver to our cat. Ronnie is a very responsible and caring man, he takes great pride in his work and has an enormous love for dogs. If there was one job that I know Ronnie would be excellent at, it would be a caregiver for dogs.”


10. Cheyenne M.

“Cheyenne is wonderful. She is always on time and professional. More importantly my dog Grace looks forward to her walks with her. I like how she lets me know of her bathroom habits so I can monitor. Highly recommend her.”


11. Hoyt B.
About: I have two pups at home that I take care of for 8+ hours a day. I love playtime and going on walks with them! I’m working volunteer shifts with a non-profit currently and am on break from school so I have lots of free time and can be in places quickly! I have two dogs in the plaza area. We don’t have a fenced-in yard so we tend to take trips to the local parks to play! Although, that doesn’t stop the zoomies inside haha!


12. Natlie B.

“Jigs knows exactly when Natalie is supposed to arrive. He gets super excited to see her! Natalie is very caring and patient with him. Jigs says Natalie is the best!”


13. Lily O.

“Lily has been great and my dog loves her!!”


14. Vanessa R.


“Vanessa is super helpful and we appreciate her flexibility!”


15. Laura B.
“Laura is great! She took care of my senior girl beautifully. I would highly recommend and will use her again in the future for sure”


16. Daryl F.

“Darryl was amazing and super attentive to my dog’s needs. Highly recommend!”


17. Jocelyn M.
“First and foremost as someone who’s works with Jocelyn she always treats customers with respect and gives the feeling of them being top priority. Secondly I have witnessed her interactions with her dogs very loving and caring and always thinking about the dog if going on a long walk or something she always got water and bags to clean up being a courteous dog owner.”


18. Michaela M.

“Michaela goes the extra mile for your fur family. She gave my boys a potty break and took them on a big walk in the rain! She knows how to take care of the giant babies with big personalities. You definitely need to book her....but not take her away from us!”


19. Ashley H.
“My two dogs adore Ashley! The second she walks in the door they get so exited. She is great with them, I couldn’t recommend/ trust anyone more.”


20. Macy B.
“Macy is the best caretaker when it comes pets! I’ve trusted her many times to take care of our fur babies and I am impressed every time. I can always feel good about leaving my pets with her. She’s on time with feedings for them, plays with them, and even sends me pics of them throughout the day so I know all is good. Highly recommend!”
