“Alyssa took our dog, Duke on multiple walks each day we were out of town. She was great with sharing pictures and communications the whole time. Would book again”


2. Glory R.
“Glory is the type of person who treats any sort of pet with the upmost care and love. I've konwn Glory for several years as a dog owner and cat lover and know she's watched pets that belonged to friends and family ranging from a day to several weeks. She always goes the extra mile to spend time with the animals she watches to make them feel comfortable. She has been a great example on how to be a great pet parent, and now that I have an animal of my own, I would never hesitate to ask Glory to watch my dog. In addition to the care she provides, she is also a very trustworthy, punctual, communicative, and responsible individual. Highly recommend!”


3. Sara J.

“I highly recommend Sara for her exceptional dog-walking services! From the moment she started, it was clear that she genuinely cares for animals. Sara is punctual, reliable, and she goes above and beyond. Her communication is excellent; she sends updates and photos after each walk, which gives us peace of mind. If you're looking for someone who is not only professional but also truly loves pets, Sara is the one to call. Thank you, Sara, for being such a wonderful caregiver to our furry family members!”


4. Cassidy B.

“Cassidy is amazing! I recently moved and had to find a new dog walker who can handle my 2 German shepherds. They liked her right away and shes been very easy to work with, reliable, and you can tell she cares about the pups. Definitely hiring again!”


5. Rebecca T.

“Rebecca is a lifesaver! When I needed a last-minute dog walker, she stepped in and took excellent care of Karson. Her punctuality, communication, and genuine love for dogs make her my go-to choice. Highly recommend Rebecca for anyone needing a reliable and caring walker!”

About: I love all animals and treat them as though my kids. I have a 3 bedroom house and a vehicle. I'm very flexible. I have experience with animals including dogs, cats, ferrets, horses, mice, hamsters, etc. I can potty train and will work with your desires. I love being active and I love parks. I love teaching dogs/cats tricks as well, and I love lists for what you love for your animal. I will provide my home but if you have any toys or beds I will except them but will provide if needed. And I can hook your lil paw friends a discounted haircut and bath! I work from home and love doing it! I have all the free time to have fun with your fur babies and maybe even just chill and watch a movie. What ever you and your pet desire!! I have had pets of my and currently recovering from a passed away canine named Buddy, although I don't currently have pets, I fall in love with others pets on the spot. I know signs of aggression and will never let a pet feel lonely. cuddles are my favorite but boundaries are always necessary. just let me know everything about your pet and they will soon get to know me, and I guarantee love me. if they need to be social, i will take them out often. if they like alone time and quiet, we can chill at home. I also have experience in giving medication to animals as well as shots.

About: Want a tired and happy pet (mentally and physically?) I will walk, exercise, and care for your pet as if they were my own! I’m a Doberman mom of 8 years and train with working breeds, and have 20 years of living with cats. I can provide just regular walking/home visit services. I will positively reinforce basic commands you are using, like walking at a perfect heel, door/car/food/sofa manners, and more! Only positive, safe, and gentle sessions. I have summers off and can be flexible for your schedule. My weekdays are spent working remotely from home and my weekends are generally open for a quick visit or walk! I am comfortable with using security systems, crating your dog if needed, feeding special diets (raw, prey, meds), letting them outside, and spending time playing or cuddling with them if that’s what they need to feel happy while you’re away! I can also put them in clothing or shoes, do light cleaning (mud, rain, snow), and other small tasks.

9. Raislynn C.

“I would recommend Raislynn as a responsible and loving pet caregiver, she has taken care of my dog “Lady” many times and she continues to do so. Raislynn loves animals with an undying passion, she also works at a dog daycare so she has a lot of experience with animals and their care, so I would definitely recommend Raislynn as a loving and responsible pet caregiver”

16. Natalia & Felix R.

I will definitely be having them dog sit again in the future!”


17. Dana B.
“Dana is amazing with animals. She’s patient, kind, and experienced. With her background as a vet tech, I have complete trust and confidence that my pet is in the best hands. I don’t think you’ll find a more responsible, caring, and reliable pet sitter for your dog or cat!”


18. Sarah W.
