“Kate was so great! She really went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable before leaving my baby to her. It shows how much she really cares about your dog. She had no problem handling my huge Great Dane and easing his worries while I was away. I would not hesitate to rebook her again!”
“Lisa is an excellent dog walker! She was prompt and took Tut on a long walk for an hour where he was able to burn some energy and then relax/nap afterwards till I got home from work. Will definitely work with her again”
“Laura is very responsible, super helpful, and does her job perfectly. My furry friend loves her and is super happy every time he sees her. I recommend her and will continue to use her services.”
“Damacia is great with our giant Schnoodle. He loves squirrels but she manages to control him. We have used her for boarding and walking and always been pleased. I would highly recommend.”
About: I have had dogs, cats and birds my entire life. I will treat your fur babies as I would treat my own. Nothing but love I am at home all day as I am an artist. And work from home. I work out of the home 3 evenings a week. I have a large back yard. It is not fenced in but I do have a 25ft lead or I can simply walk them. I have 2 pet parakeets and a Great Dane that recently went to heaven at almost 12. Pets are always allowed on my couches and beds and I miss the snuggles.
“Great to work with Rebecca! Excellent communication and arrived in the agreed time frame with no issue. She took my pup with hers for a walk to the nearby dog park. Pics showed how delighted he was with the walk and the company! Definitely plan to work with her again”
“Bruce is great. He showed up minutes before the appointed time to be certain he was not late. He thrilled the dogs with their first ride in a convertible. He sent plenty of pictures including those that look like the dogs are smiling ear to ear. He was prepared with water during the walk and gave them breaks to rest from the heat. Our yellow lab is usually restless and constantly pulling my husband but she behaved for Bruce. I would highly recommend him.”
About: I’ve helped take care pets of my own, my moms, friends, & others who knew of me reliably for 16 years. I do it all I currently work part time and soon to be none so I’ll have plenty of time for your pets to be cared for and loved I will rely on how things work in your house and work based off of your pets schedule. Your pets safety is my first priority
About: I have always had pets growing up from dogs of different sizes to bunnies and bird. Recently I have been taking care of my dog Dutch. He suffered from seizures all his life, so I have experience in bigger dogs and one with health issues. I have full availability. It may change due possibly picking up a part time job as I am preparing for a year long college course. Putting my dog through behavioral courses has helped me with heel training. So walking dogs of any size won't be an issue for me. Especially with it being so hot recently making sure the asphalt isn't too hot and not keeping dogs out for too long.
About: Hi there! My journey with dogs began in 2007, when I started helping friends, family members, and co-workers with dog walking and feeding. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities—from tiny Miniature Pinschers to gentle giants like English Mastiffs (sometimes even walking multiples at once!). In 2018, I welcomed my own pup, Harley Quinn, into my life. She’s been my loyal walking companion ever since, and together we’ve explored countless trails and neighborhoods. Caring for dogs is more than just a service to me—it’s a passion. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with patience, kindness, and a whole lot of tail-wagging fun. Whether your pup is full of energy or prefers a slower pace, I’m here to make sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for every step of the way. I'm available most weekends with enough notice to book appointments. I'm mainly providing dog walking services but can definitely feed your dog too if that's what's necessary. I will not be providing boarding services in my home or dog sitting. But I am happy to provide walking and feeding services as your schedule needs. To keep your dog safe on walks I will keep them on their leash, and unless specifically told otherwise will keep them away from other dogs or people during walks.
About: Hi, I'm Cindy! I’m a stay-at-home mom of 2. I’m an animal lover with years of experience caring for pets. In our home, we only board small(In stature) dogs, medium dogs that are on the smaller side and small breed puppies. Our Jack Russell is afraid of larger breeds and we’ve found many small dog owners have the same issue. If your pet weighs more than 25 pounds but is still small in stature, feel free to ask! Your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I’m home with your pets most of the day, except for short errands. My 2 dogs, a Jack Russel named Flower and a Goldendoode named Cupid love having friends over! I treat them like family—whether it's cuddling on the couch or romping in our large, fenced backyard. For added safety, I stay outside with them, and we have locked gates and security cameras. I also closely follow your pet's routine and offer medication administration if needed (thanks to my nursing background). All pets are feed separately. I carry separate liability insurance for added peace of mind.
About: I’ve cared for both dogs and cats for over 7 years, starting with my own dog who’s been with me since I adopted him when he was 1 yr old. While I haven’t done formal training or grooming, I’ve handled daily care routines like walking, feeding, playing, and making sure pets feel safe and loved. I truly see animals as one of life’s biggest blessings, and I care for every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s companionship or daily care, I bring patience, affection, and a calm presence to every visit. I work full time but work Monday and Thursday’s from home. I can check in on your pet those days along with weekends! Would love to take them on a walk. I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions closely whether it’s feeding times, walks, playtime, or medication needs. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands while you’re away.
