“Olivia was tasked with visiting and walking our dog while we were on vacation. She was consistently on time, extremely good with communication and obviously has a lot of passion for animals and this shows in the care that she provided for our dog Raya. It made our vacation much more relaxing knowing Olivia was checking in on her. We will book her again for sure!”

“Chakra’s first week with Amber has been awesome. It’s been really great for him to have a midday pickup and walk. I can truly see a difference in his temperament.”

“Maggie is the best person to care for your animals! She is dependable, flexible, and so good with them- I love that she spent dogsitting time playing “beauty shop” to groom my girls up a little. Would 10/10 recommend her to anyone looking for a great pet caretaker 😊😊”

“Jen is not only the best, most reliable dog walker we have ever used, but also the most trustworthy person we've ever employed to do any kind of work in our household. It helps immensely that she is both energetic and calming. Our rambunctious big boy retriever is always super mellow after each outing with Jen. I wish we'd known of her several dogs ago!”

About: There is nothing in the world like a dog. I absolutely love them all. Four legged monsters looking for a good time and I love it.

Outside of the fun stuff though, I’m practically always available and what better way to use that time than to play with dogs. At my home it is fenced in so my dogs have a place to run around. With the clients home, I can make it fun and safe within the parameters that they set like I’ve done in my home.
