1. Derek H.
“I've had the pleasure of having Derek walk my dog for the past few weeks, and I couldn't be happier with the service. Derek is incredibly friendly and accommodating, always going the extra mile to make sure my dog is happy and well-cared for. One thing that I really appreciate about Derek is that he leave detailed notes about each walk, including how my dog did, what they did during the walk, and anything else that I need to know. Derek also goes the extra mile to make sure that my house is in order before they leave. He will feed my dog, refill their water bowl This is a huge help, as it means that I don't have to worry about anything when I get home from work. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with Derek's service. He is a kind, caring, and responsible dog walker who I would highly recommend to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dog.”

“Cameron came in clutch with a last minute save for Emily. He was communicative & even walked her in the rain! Will definitely use his services again in the future. Thank you!”
4. Trina C.
“Trina is dependable and very sweet to our dog who isn’t the easiest to take on walks due to her reactiveness around other dogs.”
5. Tatiana “Sasha” G.
“Sasha did a good job with walking my dog Riggons. I get home late in the evenings so she was able to walk him and get him tired out in the late afternoon. She also cleaned his paws when they got back from their walks and kept me up to speed on their time together. I will continue to use her.”
6. Julia K.
“Julia was kind, thoughtful, and attentive to our pup. Even when there was a slight hiccup, she was communicative and supportive. We will definitely be contacting Julia again!”
7. Sam T.
“Sam is so good with animals because she is kind and projects a warmth that just makes animals love her. Her quiet, confident nature make animals feel calmed and safe. She is also really athletic and a champion walker and hiker who could exhaust the most energetic pups. Her intuitive nature and that she has been surrounded by pets since birth allows her to recognize what each animal needs from a situation and how to best handle it. She is a completely trustworthy and responsible animal lover and your pet will love her.”

9. MyChelle L.
“MyChelle has been wonderful - great with our dog, responsive to changes in our schedule, and always reliable. We had her walk our dog daily for about a month and had no issues. Highly recommended.”
10. Lillian P.
“Lillie is an amazing human and has helped many an animal in need, not to mention loved all the animals of her friends and family. I was fortunate enough to be her roommate when we rescued a tiny malnourished kitten found by a mutual friend. Lillie stayed up all night and nursed it back to health, feeding it every two hours until it was finally on solid foods. She was a champion to the little animals that needed help and will be a wonderful addition to your own fur family’s care. She gets a 12 out of 10 from me and I know your best friends and pets will adore her as much as all the animals she has loved over the years. I am happy to be friends with such an amazing animal whisperer.”
11. Madison L.
“Madison is attentive and a dedicated pet caregiver who is always communicative and punctual. Our dog, Koa loves it when Maddie comes by. She pays good attention to detail, carrying enough poop bags, making sure food is filled, and much more! She is always reliable and we trust Maddie with our fur baby!”
12. Maxim F.
“Maxim did a great job with Paris and Cupcake. They were a bit frightened on the meet and greet and barked, but Maxim was patient and gained their trust. He took them for a walk every visit and fed them homemade dog food. He played with them, giving them extra play time. I would definitely use Maxim again.”
13. Jennifer R.
“Jenny is an incredible dog caregiver. She has a natural ability to connect with dogs, making even the most anxious ones feel comfortable and safe. Her attention to detail is amazing, ensuring every need is met, from feeding schedules to playtime and exercise. My dog always comes back happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Jenny for her professionalism, kindness, and genuine love for animals.”
14. Chris S.
“Highly recommend Chris! He walks our large German Shepherd who is always tried and happy after the walks! Chris leaves us detailed notes and always ensures our dog has access to water. Chris is always going above and beyond and we appreciate everything he does for us and our dog!”
15. Julie W.
“I used Julie multiple times to watch my pets. 5 stars every time! She keeps you updated and sends the cutest photos.”
16. Elizabeth G.
“Elizabeth was great! She was able to accommodate a last-minute booking and was unfazed when my dog was acting like a wild man after being pent up while I was at work when she first met him. She communicated well while I was away, and I returned home to a happy, healthy dog. Highly recommend Elizabeth!”
17. Rachel P.
“Hello! My name is Michael and I hired Rachel to watch my cat and my dog while my daughter and I were gone for a long weekend. She was a great care taker. She came over at least 2x a day to walk Bandit and spent the night to watch the house and care for everything. She texted regularly to keep me informed about how they were doing. We were very happy with her.”
18. Madeline S.
“Madeline was a great help and our German Shepherd had lots of fun l!”
19. Gia C.
“Our dogs love when Gia comes over to the house and plays with them, takes them for walks and feeds them. She is takes the time and effort to make sure they are safe when out on walks. She has a kind soul so I believe the dogs can sense that from her. I love receiving the picture of the dogs from her. I can travel with a piece of mind when I know that Gia is caring for my fur babies.”
20. Amanda B.
