“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Dog Walker – Thank You, Madeleine, for Taking Such Great Care of Sasha! I can’t say enough good things about Madeleine. From the very beginning, she has been dependable, professional, and incredibly kind to both me and my dog, Sasha. Every time Madeleine arrives, Sasha lights up with excitement—it’s clear how much she enjoys her walks and how much she trusts Madeleine. And I do too. Madeleine is always punctual, communicative, and attentive to Sasha’s needs, whether it’s adjusting the pace, keeping her safe, or just giving her a little extra love on a tough day. I especially appreciate the thoughtful updates and photos Madeleine sends after each walk. It gives me peace of mind and always puts a smile on my face. It’s rare to find someone who cares this much and treats your dog like their own. Madeleine has become a part of Sasha’s daily happiness—and mine too. Thank you, Madeleine, for everything you do. You’re truly a gem, and I’m so grateful to have you in our lives. Highly, highly recommend!”

“My little pup loves Mickie. She’s very communicative and always sends photos of the sessions. I feel very comfortable leaving my little girl at home confidently knowing Mickie will be showing up throughout the day. Highly recommend her services!”


“Sarah was great! Very quick to respond to my request and asked to set a time for her to meet our puppy before the sitting times. I thought that this was very professional as she wanted to be extra prepared. Her communication was great and she really seemed to enjoy the time spent with our puppy!”

About: I have experience with animals as small as cats to as big as cows! I love animals of all types and my first priority is always the pets safety and comfort! In my 14 years of pet sitting I’ve stayed overnight, done drop ins, and walked animals on a regular basis. I have experience with farm animals from a farm animal sanctuary I worked with for two years. Additionally, I have experience and am comfortable with administering medication such as IV’s, pills, etc. I am also comfortable with dogs of all sizes and breeds.

About: We usually care for just 1–2 dogs at a time, so we are able to give your pup plenty of personalized love and attention. With a super flexible schedule, we can truly cater to your dog’s needs. We know your dog is part of your family, so we treat them like they’re part of ours too! We live on the first floor with a huge, fully fenced yard, which is perfect for zoomies, sunbathing, or fetch marathons. And don’t worry, we never leave pups out there alone. One of us is always hanging out with them. We are also just 10 minutes from the beach and run daily, so if your dog’s into ocean breezes and cardio, we’re happy to bring them along for the ride! We can easily give your pup the personalized care and attention they need. We usually start the day with a morning walk, followed by a stroll to the coffee shop, plenty of potty breaks, and lots of yard time playing fetch. We also like to take walks along the canal in the afternoon and squeeze in a quick walk before bedtime. Since we’re pretty active, we love taking dogs to the beach on weekends or even going for a run by the shore if they’re up for it. Your dogs will never be bored with us! We even took one of our boarding dogs on a trip to Mammoth! We live in a private community that is dog-friendly, which has a huge, shared fenced yard. We also have many toys for the dogs to play with!

About: Having grown up on a farm, I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, primarily dogs (big & small) and horses. I always pet sit for friends and family (my brother is the proud owner of a beautiful Australian Shepherd named Cash and my mother has two adorable Pomeranians, Teddy & LouLou.

12. juliana n.
“Juliana is the absolute best dog sitter! My dog gets so excited every time he sees her. She goes above and beyond whenever I am in need of a sitter and is by far, my dog's favorite.”


13. Lauren E.
“Lauren is a wonderful animal/dog caretaker. The first day I met her she told me about an animal sanctuary she volunteered at, just a couple months later I went with her. I met a variety of animals, many of which had already developed a trusting relationship with her, which was a big deal for these guys. As for dogs, she’s super super passionate. She says hi to every dog she sees and has a Rottweiler herself, who’s very spoiled, and even he knows it. Lauren is one of the most responsible and hardworking people I know and she’s just a huge sweetheart in general. I’ve seen her do many pet sitting, etc. gigs and she’s been loved by the pet and their owner every time. She always shows up and really cares about what she’s doing, she genuinely wants to do a good job. If you’re looking for someone kind, diligent, and trustworthy to care for your dog, this is your person.”
