4. Melissa S.
“Melissa has been dropping by to walk my dog Pepper for about a year now and I could not ask for a better experience!!! Pepper loves her and is always happy when I get home from work, and Melissa always takes time to play with her after their walk. Melissa is very responsive and easy to get ahold of. She is also usually able to squeeze us in if I book at the last minute. Overall I’ve had a very good, low stress experience!!!”

8. Paula M.
About: I’ve been taking care of pets for my whole life. From my personal childhood dogs, to friends, and even working at a doggie daycare, I’ve always cared for animals. I’m currently working full-time during the week, but I get off of work at 10:00 in the morning. This means I’ll be able to take your puppers out during the day and give them the love and attention they deserve! I live in an apartment complex but am very comfortable with walking dogs and have experience with many different breeds. If they come to my place they would be allowed on the furniture!
9. Andrea B.
“My dogs always have a great time walking with Andrea and any time they are with her, my mind is completely at ease because I know they are well taken care of.”
10. Natasha M.
“Natasha has become our go-to for occasional dog walks this past year. She has great flexibility and has worked with our high energy dog since she was a little pup. She always goes above and beyond on the walks, and works with us to determine the best options for the walk. Our dog loves her too, she practically dances when she sees Natasha at the door!”
11. Lillian E.
“Lillian has pet sat for us for several years, an for a week at a time, she is kind an loves animals, strongly recommended her for your fur babies”
12. Dani G.
“Picture this: a group of people including Dani walk into our home . . . Our dog goes straight to Dani. I’ve always said that dogs know who a dog lover is, Dani is one. Dani somehow manages to handle my nutty, easily excitable giant schnoodle, even putting drops in his ears, something I am not sure I can do. I know she has raised other animals including chickens. I know she also has babysitting / nanny experience.”
13. Jenny C.
“My dog immediately loved Jenny. She is always on time and sends great pictures. Your pets will love Jenny too.”
14. Jessie G.
“Jessie is a beautiful human being. She is a strong animal advocate and goes above and beyond to ensure that the lives of dogs and cats( really all animals) are of high quality and that the pet is loved and cared for on a consistent basis. She is the mother of 2 cats who have had many mental and physical challenges and thinks outside of the box to make them happy and comfortable cats. She grew up around lots of different kinds of animals as her parents own a farm, and she continues to nurture and care for them. Jessie goes above and beyond for animals and is a very trustworthy individual. In addition, she volunteers at Moore's Rescue and helps find good homes for animals and raise money to take care of them. She has a big heart and will make sure your pet is well taken care of.”
15. Lilibeth S.
About: I have always loved pets and grew up in a house full of various animals. This includes dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, hamsters, turtles, and fish. My love for pets has only grown through the years. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets, pet sitting for family, friends, and taking on pet sitting jobs and volunteer work during my youth. My main option on here is dog walking and drop-ins but I also do house sitting. I’m currently between jobs so have a lot of free time on my hands. It would be my pleasure to spend it looking after your furry friends and provide outstanding care while you are busy or away!! I'm willing to do additional other tasks if requested. I have years of experience caring for pets and currently care for my own 3 year old stubborn but adorable beagle. I will treat your furry kiddos as if they were my own. I try to provide the best care possible so very thorough instructions are always welcome. Updates will always be provided as well.

17. Milo W.
“Milo is absolutely amazing with dogs and has much experience. He is great and patient with my three who can be barkers and slow to warm up. Millie is a lover all animals big and small and cares for all animals like they are his own. Would recommend Milo to anyone!”
18. Rilee H.
“Riley watched my cat Yuki while I was out of town and Yuki seemed very happy! She sent videos of her playing and sleeping. Very well taken care of!”
19. Matt M.
“Matt made an incredible first impression! he was on time, 10 minutes early and was willing to wait until we were ready for us to meet and walk Jubilee (dog). Matt asked all questions appropriately, had stellar social skills and made the interaction feel very comfortable for me and Jubilee. I can't wait for Matt to keep walking Jubilee on a weekly basis and for them to be besties :) if you're hesitant reaching out to Matt, don't be. he is amazing! 10/10 recommend”
20. Noelle S.
“Noelle is the most reliable person I have encountered. She is always on time, consistent to her word, and cares deeply for not only everyone she meets but equally if not more for their pets. She has a spunky Chihuahua that loves her unconditionally and she often spends time with my cat, who is slightly problematic, and interacts with him in a genuine manner that provides him with comfort and trust. She is the best person and caregiver that your pets would be lucky to meet!”
