“Katelyn did a fantastic job. She did a great job with my dog, Morgan, and went the extra mile to make sure she had water in her bowl before leaving. Our dog has a hard time going to the bathroom with new people, but she went both with Katelyn. 5 stars and will book her again :)”

“Jessica did an amazing job walking my pitbull! She was punctual, professional, and clearly experienced with handling dogs. My pup came back happy and well-exercised. She was also very communicative, giving me updates during the walk, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker. Will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: Hi Dog lovers! My name is Abigail and dogs have been a part of my life since I can remember. Growing up I was responsible for walking, feeding and pouring attention into our two German shorthaired pointer dogs. When my neighbors would go on vacation they would ask me to watch their four dogs and I also became the 'go to' person when their dogs would get loose in the neighborhood. Fortunately, that never happened on my watch! My current dog is a high energy Pitbull Lab mix, who thinks he is a lap dog. :) Most of the dogs I have worked with have been in the 50-60 pound range but I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Is your dog older? No problem, I can sit and give them lots of love or take them on a gentle walk. Is your dog high energy? Again, no problem, I have one of those of my own and I can play fetch or tug-a-war with them! I have no problem administering medicine if needed too. During the school year I work in a high school and coach swimming so my availability is from 3:30pm - 6:00pm, and anytime on the weekends. During the summer my schedule is much more flexible during the week and weekends. I consider myself a dog magnet because any time I encounter a dog, even for the first time, they like to jump on me or wiggle their butts, seeking my attention! Providing walks, belly rubs, and playing fetch are my jam. Dogs mean the world to me and I would love the opportunity to shower your fur babies with attention. During the school year, I am available 3:30pm - 6:00pm and weekends. During the summer (June & July) I have flexibility in my schedule every day. I am comfortable taking dogs to the park, walking them or playing with them indoor home/yard. If it is a high energy dog, I can also take them for a run.

“Fred has been an absolute blessing to our family. Moochy like him immediately and trusted him. She’s usually pretty skittish. Fred was always on time, willing to be flexible if needed, and was just really good with Moochy. I needed someone who was strong to walk mooch because she’s big and strong. Fred had no trouble with it. I had absolute faith in Fred’s ability to handle her. And when Mooch saw his car pull up, she was so happy. I have no trouble recommending Fred to be your dog walker.”

“Hayley was patient with Jillian as she’s gotten older and a bit stubborn on her walks. There was also medication this time and Hayley was great with making sure Jilly was taken care of. Loved all the photos.”

About: Had dogs when I was young, now my wife and I have two cats. I've also lived with birds, rabbits, and rats, via roommates over the years. I'm an independent developer looking to supplement my savings while working on a personal project. I can make my schedule work around yours and provide the care you need. I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pets, and I know what a breath of relief a good sitter is. I'm attentive and careful.

“Stella is so patient with our high-anxiety pitbull. She does so well giving him clear commands, playing with him, and making him feel safe. Thank you, Stella!”

About: I have had a long love for animals,growing up with cats and dogs. As an adult we had a beloved German Shepherd mix that was our ring bearer. And we were blessed to have him for 11 years. Now I'm a proud dog mom to 1 terrier mix. I've taken care of dogs, cats and other animals since I was in Middle School for neighbors and friends. I love going on walks and playing fetch. I work part-time at a school so right now I'm off during the summer but during the school year I would be able to work around my schedule and have several days off during the school week to pop in before and after or on my days off. I would love to pop into your house for visiting. I will follow your dogs normal routine. Please let me know how to help your animal feels most comfortable.

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my eight years of hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals—not just dogs and cats, but also birds, chickens, and horses. I bring a calm, confident presence that helps animals feel at ease, even those with special needs or unique temperaments. I understand that every pet is different and take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities. My background in animal care goes beyond the basics, and I treat each pet like my own—with patience, respect, and genuine love. Whether it’s a cuddle session, a long walk, or specialized care, I’m here to provide reliable, attentive service you can count on. Pet care is part of my daily routine, both at work and at home. I’m a kennel attendant at a veterinary clinic, so caring for animals is literally what I do every day. Before and after work, I’m already on a routine with my own two Aussies and three cats — feeding, walking, and playtime are built right in. That means I’m used to early mornings, late evenings, and structured schedules, and I’m happy to work around what’s best for your pets. I always follow your instructions whether that be taking your dog out on a long lead, or constant watching in your fenced in yard. I make sure they get fed on time, potty breaks if they need them a certain time apart, ie every hour, etc.

“Alex has been great with communication and scheduling. With my job I sometimes run into changes and she’s been able to accommodate. Knox seems to enjoy her company and overall great experience.”

About: Recently divorced and moved into an apartment that doesn't allow animals. I've had 2+ dogs most of my life. I miss being able to go on walks and play catch on the backyard. I work from home 4 days a week and go into the office once a week, but only for about 4-5 hours and I'm free on weekends When I had dogs I typically took them on walks 4 or 5 times a day around the block. Then once a day I would take them on a walk around the lake by my house which was about a mile. Always enjoyed playing tug of War or catch. Loved training to see them grow.

“Sandy did a fantastic job with Jake. It was a last minute appointment, and she came through for me. I highly recommend her to care for your critter(s). Thanks, Sandy.”

“I love Stephanie...and more importantly, so does Sophie! We have a broader collie mix that needs a good walk. Even during the worst weather they came and gave Sophie the activity she needed. Thank You Stephanie and team! You are greatly appreciated.”
