“We couldn’t be more grateful for Stefanie! She has been a true life-saver, especially after we had our baby and needed extra help. Knowing we could count on her to take care of our dog, Astro, gave us such peace of mind during a busy and exhausting time. Astro absolutely loves his walks with her, and it’s clear Stefanie treats him like her own. She’s always on time, incredibly professional, and so caring. We feel so lucky to have found someone we trust completely with Astro. Stefanie truly goes above and beyond, and we can’t recommend her highly enough!”

“David is awesome and has been caring for dogs since he was a kid. We have had 3 dogs of our own and most recently we have an 11 year old beautiful dog Jett—that we adopted when he was 1. David and Jett are inseparable. Our kids are older now and come for visits with their own dogs. It’s wonderful to have all 3 of them together in our home! David enjoys long walks with Jett and we frequently take him to the beach. He is a wonderful calm dog who loves people. David will care for your dog like his own! Dogs love him!!”

She goes above and beyond, making sure he’s well-fed, entertained, and comfortable, and she always keeps me updated with photos and check-ins.

“I can’t say enough good things about Janet! She has been an incredible blessing for my dog, Ash. While I'm at work, I know Ash is in the best hands. Janet is not only reliable and punctual but also genuinely loves dogs. Ash always comes home happy and well-exercised after his walks. What impresses me most is the personalized attention and care Ash receives. Janet takes the time to understand Ash's personality and needs, ensuring each walk is enjoyable and safe. I receive regular updates and photos, which really puts my mind at ease. If you're looking for someone who is trustworthy, caring, and passionate about dogs, look no further! I highly recommend Janet to anyone in need of a fantastic dog walker.”

“Susana is a Godsend. Our very picky, particular, protective 150lb male dog loves her and has come to like her very much. Susana is consistent, reliable and trustworthy. She has come to the rescue for us in a pinch several times. So glad we’ve found her for our daily walks.”
19. Anna D.
“Highly recommend!”
20. Wendy R.
“Wendy is fantastic. She walked my dog all week (who isn’t always the easiest dog to take on walks) but did a great job and gave him a great workout. She showed up on time, went for good leisurely walks and let me know if anything was amiss. One day my pup wasn’t feeling well and she even stayed late to make sure he was ok and settled in! Would definitely recommend especially if you need a repeat walker.”
