“Claudia was excellent! She responded to my booking request quickly and on short notice. She scheduled time to meet my pups in advance. Both dogs really liked Claudia and I could tell Claudia really likes dogs. She arrived on time and took the dogs on a nice long walk. I was extremely pleased with her service and will book again next time I need doggy services.”

“Jacob was great, took our recently spayed dog out for a walk in the middle of the day. Was great about asking about and following the rules for her health! Allie came back happy and tired.”
7. Carrie M.
“Carrie certainly deserves her many fabulous reviews. Our mini-golden, Emily, loves making new friends and Carrie is clearly her new BFF! Em had a great walk, too many belly rubs to count, and as many snuggles as she wanted. Carrie was kind and attentive. We appreciated that she asked great questions to get to know our preferences and Emily's habits. We look forward to seeing her again soon!”

11. Jessica S.
“We are so appreciative of Jessica's patience with our shy dog, Hamilton. He doesn't easily trust new people and she came out and did a meet & greet where Hamilton really liked her. When she came for a dog walk, he was still hesitant (as is with everyone), but she continued her compassion and did the best she could walking him. We look forward to having Jessica come help us with Hamilton again when we have the need. Thanks, Jessica!”

“Ciara did great! Bear loves long walks and being able to smell all the smells.”

“Rachel is amazing and she is a miracle worker with Leela. She loves seeing Rachel and gets so excited for her walks. Leela can be dog reactive and Rachel does well with managing her craziness. I know Leela is safe and happy when she's with Rachel. I highly recommend her and use her for the majority of my dog walking needs.”
