“I really like Avery's vibe, and so did Bowie. Avery is quick and reliable in their communication and took everything I told them about Bowie's quirky behavior into account. I'm looking forward to having you over as a (semi-) regular sitter!”

“Kimberly has been walking our dog, Frankie, once a week, for about a month now. As a dog owner, my biggest priority when finding someone to come into our house and take care of our dog is trusting that person to keep him safe and love on him like we do. And that’s exactly what Kimberly provides for us! I always know that Frankie is in good hands and Kimberly always provides the cutest note about their walk together. He can be a challenging dog but Kimberly is great with him! We really appreciate the peace of mind that we’ve gotten since hiring Kimberly :)”

“Mike was so great with our dog Toby. He walked Toby twice a day for two weeks while we were on vacation, and also fed him. Mike was terrific communicating with us the entire time to let us know how things were going and alerting us to any issues he saw at our house while we were gone. Thank you, Mike!!!!”

About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals has always been something I genuinely love. I’ve pet sat for neighbors, friends, and family, caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. What sets me apart is that I’m also a registered nurse. My career has made me compassionate, dependable, detail-oriented, and attentive to changes in behavior or health. I have a natural instinct for noticing when something doesn’t seem quite right, and I always prioritize safety and communication. I understand that pets are family, and I promise to treat yours with the same love, patience, and care I would give my own. I currently work part time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to the pets I care for. Whether it’s going on walks, playing, keeping them active, sticking to their routine, or simply giving them companionship throughout the day, I’m happy to provide the care they need. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and will make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Since I live in the city, I don’t have a fenced yard, but that doesn’t stop my dog from getting plenty of exercise and attention! I have one dog of my own and also frequently care for my neighbor’s dog. We go on regular walks throughout the day, visit nearby grassy areas for bathroom breaks, and enjoy trips to the park just up the street for extra exercise and playtime. I also have a crate available if your dog is crate trained or if you’d like them crated for rest, bedtime, or while I’m briefly away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine as closely as possible. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise, playtime, bathroom breaks, and, of course, lots of love and attention. My goal is to help every pet feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their family is away.
“I booked Octavia for a last minute walk with my pup and everything was fantastic! We had good communication, she was on time, and she gave a great summary at the end of the walk. I’m adding her to my roster of walkers ASAP.”

“Jeffrey is an excellent walker. He takes our dog on long walks and gets him nice and tired. He took the time to meet us first to make sure we felt comfortable with him and always takes the best pictures of our pup as well! Our apartment is a little difficult to access but he has been great working with the staff to get in everyday and we feel comfortable with him in our home. Would highly recommend.”

“Ellen did a great job walking my dog! She was on time, followed instructions, and communicated with me! Quincy had so much fun and is very excited to see Ellen again for another walk!”

“James was very easy going and patient with my puppy Moka. He took her for a nice extended walk, fed her and most of all, allowed her to warm up to him before he took her out.”

“Brittany has been a great addition to Corbin's routine. She comes daily to walk, feed and play with him. She provides me with super cute pictures and an update on how he did”

“Emily is friendly, kind and attentive, and I trust her to take great care of my Artie. She was even kind enough to bring my packages inside when she came over to walk him. I highly recommend booking with Emily.”

Alia was great! Very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and my dog clearly loved her. My dog is high energy and a puller, but Alia took great care of her and kept her safe and happy. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a safe and trustworthy walker or sitter.
