“Krystal has been taking our dog on walks twice weekly for a few weeks now. She’s always very punctual and communicative. Our dog loves her time with Krystal!”

“I could not say enough wonderful things about Maren. From the first meet and greet to her last walk with Kathleen she has gone above and beyond. Wonderful communication, observant of any new concerns with Kathleen’s health, and very careful about her dog reactivity. Thank you so so much Maren. <3”

About: I have had pets my whole life including dogs, cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, bunnies and fish! I am very responsible and have lots of experience caring for a wide variety of pets. We have 2 family dogs that I used to walk on a daily basis as well as play with when I’m back at home. I also help out with my sister’s guinea pigs all the time and am very comfortable with small animals. I am currently working remotely and have quite a bit of flexibility. I typically take walks every day, so it’s always nice to have some company! I love to play with animals, especially dogs! I am also a lover of all pet cuddles!! I am always sure to follow instructions and properly care for different animals and make sure they are comfortable, exercised appropriately, and well loved.

“Kino did a great job with my newly adopted 3 year old rescue. She knows her stuff, and was able to recommend a good training book. She communicates well and my dog is always happy to see her!”

About: I have always had dogs ever since I was a baby and I love spending time with them and giving them all the love and attention they need! I grew up with a bull mastiff named belle and took care of her even in her older age and I currently have 2 golden retrievers who are around 6 years old but I helped take care of them when they were puppies as well. I feel comfortable helping senior dogs with any medicine, help moving, or anything else they may need and I'm super comfortable and patient with puppies! I also have 2 cats and have also been around cats since I was a baby and love taking care of them as well! I love playing and being around big dogs but small is great too! :) I am currently a high school senior but I do online classes through running start so I am pretty much home all day and I go away for practice later in the day but I honestly have a pretty open and free schedule during the week! Since I have a flexible schedule with school I am able to stay for a while if your animal needs extra attention or company! I feel very comfortable and confident taking care of dogs since I have always been around them growing up. My mom and me also run a rover business boarding dogs at our house for the last few years as well so I have gotten to take care of lots of different kind of dogs! I really love dogs and cats and it would be a really amazing and fun opportunity for me to help take care of your cats and pups! :)

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years for family, friends, and clients through personal referrals. My experience includes drop in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight pet sitting in owners’ homes. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from tiny Chihuahuas to giant Great Danes. I currently work early shifts and am typically off by 1:00PM, which gives me plenty of availability for afternoon and evening walks, checkins, and last minute care when you need to stay late at work, grab dinner, or make other plans. At this time, I’m unable to host pets in my home since I rent, but I’m happy to provide care in your home and tailor my services to your pet’s specific needs. I’ve worked with anxious and shy dogs and understand that building trust takes patience. My goal is always to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will always communicate with you to ensure your furry family member receives the best care possible. i currently work early shifts which i end up getting off at 1pm. Gives me more than enough time to go walk your pet if you decide to grab last min dinner or hangout later after work ☺️ I am not able to have dogs in my house as im a renter. but i can cater to your fur pet as long as you communicate what they need. ive cared for anxious pets and have been able to patiently earn their trust to make them feel as comfortable as can be.
About: I’ve raised my own Golden Retriever since he was 8 weeks old, so I have real daily experience caring for a dog through every stage of growth and routine. Through caring for him, I’ve become very familiar with feeding schedules, walks, exercise, playtime, grooming, and making sure a dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly love dogs and understand how important it is to treat them with patience, attention, and affection. I know that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I always try to make them feel as comfortable and cared for as possible. I am home full-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and can provide dogs with plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m able to take them out every 2–4 hours for walks or potty breaks, depending on their usual routine and needs. My neighborhood also has a nearby trail, which is perfect for walks and extra exercise. Since I am home most of the day, I can give dogs a safe, comfortable, and well-supervised environment. I am also available on weekends and holidays, which makes it easier to accommodate different schedules and last-minute care needs. I offer a clean, calm, and pet-friendly home where dogs can feel safe and comfortable. My home is non-smoking, located in a quiet neighborhood, and everyone in my household is very friendly and welcoming to dogs. We do not currently have any other pets, which can be a great fit for dogs who do best in a peaceful environment. We also have a yard for outdoor time, and I always prioritize supervision, safety, and each dog’s comfort. My goal is to make every dog feel cared for, relaxed, and at home.
About: I’ve cared for pets since I was a teenager, and I’ve worked with almost every type of animal. I have experience with many dog breeds — Rottweiler, Labrador, German Shepherd, Husky, Pomeranian and others. I’ve also taken care of cats of all kinds, including long–hair, short–hair and hairless breeds. I previously had small pets of my own (rabbits, hamsters, decorative rats), and I feel very confident handling them. I also worked in an exotic animal center, where I cared for reptiles and mammals such as pythons, lemurs, raccoons and small monkeys. I’m patient, calm, and attentive to each animal’s needs. I have my own adopted kitten now 🐱. Your pet will be treated with love, respect and gentle care — just like my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I have plenty of time for drop-ins, walks and daily check-ins, and I always make sure your pet gets my full attention during each visit. I’m reliable, punctual, and able to adjust to different routines and feeding schedules. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow your instructions carefully to keep everything safe and consistent with your pet’s routine. I’m calm, attentive, and very respectful of each animal’s comfort level. I make sure doors are secured, food and water are given as directed, and I keep the space clean before I leave. At home, I take excellent care of my own cat — she has plenty of toys, enrichment activities, high-quality balanced food and a clean, safe environment. I always pay attention to her health and needs, and I bring the same level of care and responsibility to every pet I look after.
“Natalia was an absolutely amazing person who was always willing to walk our dog and hang out with our cats. Our schedule constantly changed and Natalia was always willing to help out and adjust. Natalia moved recently and our location is now too far. A bummer because we lost such a valuable member to our pets lives!”

About: A lot of my hands-on dog care experience comes from raising my own dog, Kona – a giant breed Akita/Malamute mix. Caring for him daily has taught me a lot about leash handling, structure, enrichment, and understanding different personalities and behaviors, especially with large or anxious dogs. I’m very patient, observant, and focused on helping pets feel safe and comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my everyday life. I’m flexible, dependable, and always make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, care, and consistency during visits or walks. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and comfort level so they can feel as relaxed and stress-free as possible while you’re away.
“Callaway was a great help while I was away on vacation by walking my boy, Keo. She was careful going in and out of our gate without letting Keo escape, which was what I was nervous about. I like how she provided me with some background information as well about herself over a FaceTime call and asked some questions about Keo before she took him out. She was respectful, kind, and efficient person. I could tell really cared about my boy, it was nice she sent picture updates while I was on my trip too!”

About: I am patient and easily adaptable in unexpected situations. I have helped my friends take care and teach their dogs easy to follow commands. I can guarantee that the dog will have as much fun as me! As a student I know how to balance all aspects of my life from personal professional and school related activities. I can overcome obstacles. I just want to be around dogs on my free time. In my own home I’m fully responsible for taking care of both my cats including cleaning, feeding and playing with them. With my friends dogs that I’ve taken care of when they’re out of town I’ve fed, walked and cleaned after them.
About: Hi, I have owned dogs since I was a toddler, and have dealt with aggressive dogs, disobedient dogs, and females who have labored puppies all through the course of my lifetime. I currently my pup Leila (she's a cute medium size mutt). She is a little over 2 years old. I got her around 6 weeks old, so I am very familiar with puppy behavior. If you feel comfortable, I can take your puppy out to the dog park to play with others. I am very flexible when it comes to special requests (if your pup needs to be crated, potty trained, or teach commands/leash training). It is guaranteed that I will be home the entire time I will be taking care of your pup(s) as I'm very familiar that some pets suffer from anxiety, especially when it comes to a new place. I Leila with me everywhere I can so rest assured, yours will be taken care of like mine is. Leila will be very happy to meet a new friends. Of course, I will provide plenty of treats with a lot of walks in between; I will accommodate to any dietary restrictions. I will happily take hyper dogs and make sure they are worn out by the time you come get them. I am currently not working so I am free to give your puppers love and attention. I love being outdoors and would love tire your pups out. Consistent with walks/outside time. I have a patio as well if dogs want to go outside. Plenty of treats and toys for their enjoyment and a fur baby that would love the company.

I could not say enough wonderful things about Maren. From the first meet and greet to her last walk with Kathleen she has gone above and beyond. Wonderful communication, observant of any new concerns with Kathleen’s health, and very careful about her dog reactivity. Thank you so so much Maren. <3

Rose is absolutely wonderful. I think my pup actually looks forward to me leaving town now because she enjoys her outings with Rose so much! She is lovely and obviously cares very much for the critters she is caring for. She goes above and beyond every single time.

Caroline was so patient and caring with my pup during a weekend when my pup was not feeling well. She took extra care of Ginger, my house and Goliath. I cannot thank her enough for the extra mile she went during this stressful weekend for Ginger! Thank you Caroline for all you've done for Ginger and Goliath!

We reached Robin only a couple of days before we needed to have some come to walk our boy, Bandit. She was able to do schedule a last minute meet and greet, which gave a lot of peace of mind. Her family did a great job with Bandit, they were very understanding of Bandit's excitement and were able to handle his over zealous attitude (pulling and jumping). Would definitely recommend using them to get some exercise for fur babies.

Vera was punctual, kind, meticulous and the new best friend for our dog Max! She met up prior to walks to understand instructions and get familiar with Max, a 30lb hot dog/lab mix. She sends updates and pictures for the walk and sends calendar schedule to make sure we are aligned on dates. Vera is a very reliable and kind dog walker!

So glad to have found Kendal. She shows up everyday rain or shine as described. She's no no-sense. Comes in invariably at the scheduled time, walks my mouthy puppy around the neighborhood, often with extra time, and drops him back off. She's also very accommodating with scheduling. I cant recommend her enough for the services she offer. Thank you Kendal
