“Bill is a reliable dog walker. He was great with our dog, Bella. He was flexible when adding extra walks last minute. He is also very responsive. I highly recommend his services to others.”

About: I have always had at least 2 animals in my house, which helped me learn how to be responsible at a young age. Then when I was older, I would help me neighbors and other friends when they went out of town, so I have been taking care of dogs/cats for a while! I am in college right now, so I will have some spare time to stop by/walk dogs. My class schedule is spread out nicely, so I will have more than enough time and flexibility. I will help your pets in your home, and try to follow their normal routine. I can crate, feed, walk, play, anything you could ever need!
“Five stars and two paws up! Isa has an eye for detail, professional demeanor, and is easy to communicate with. She’s super responsible with my pup and I highly recommend her :-)”


About: I have dogs at home, so I’m very comfortable caring for them and understanding their needs. I’ve also helped house sit with my mom, taking care of dogs by feeding, walking, and giving them lots of attention. I’m reliable and genuinely enjoy being around animals. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I’m used to being around and caring for animals. I plan my schedule so I have plenty of time for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins. I’m reliable with routines and make sure pets get consistent care, attention, and exercise throughout the day. I follow each pet’s routine closely to keep them comfortable, whether I’m in my home or a client’s home. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and have lots of attention. I also keep their space clean and safe, and I always follow any specific instructions the owner provides.
“Stephen is an incredible dog sitter and walker! He is incredibly professional, caring and attentive. We loved getting photos of our dog after each visit - both action shots and close ups. We are grateful for Stephen's attention to detail, professionalism and care.”


“Donna was great to our puppy. She is communicative and trust wordy. Our little ball of energy would come tired from a walk. Definitely would use her again. Thank you Donna”


About: I’m naturally very active, so if your dog loves long walks and plenty of playtime, they’ll have a great workout buddy with me. At the same time, I’m super patient and adaptable to whatever your pet needs. I’ve worked with all kinds of animals with different traits and can definitely meet your needs! Because I work a part-time job with a flexible schedule, pet care easily fits right into my daily routine. I can structure my shifts around your dog's specific needs, I have plenty of open windows to make your pet a top priority throughout the week. Whether I’m hosting your dog or staying at your place, my goal is to keep their routine exactly how they like it. For active pups, that means plenty of long walks and fresh air to burn off energy, while puppies get consistent potty breaks and training support. If you have a senior dog, I focus on a quiet, stress-free environment and precise feeding schedules. I adapt completely to your pet's needs.
About: I have experience working with cats and dogs. My family adopted a cat a few years ago and she quickly became part of the family. I have experience walking my neighbors dogs and know how to tame a dog if need be. Working with cats and dogs is a passion of mine as each has their own unique personality that is discovered over time. I am a college student at the Royal Conservatory of Music Glenn Gould School. I am available most afternoons Monday to Saturday, except for Sunday. I have a large fenced backyard that is safe for dogs to soak up the sun while having fun exploring, running around, and playing games
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have spent the past few years helping care for all sorts of fur babies !

I’m obsessed with all fur babies and I’m very comfortable handling all sizes and all breeds! We don’t discriminate😆 I am super accommodating! I love going on walks and how cute to have a little companion to get my steps in with! Over the years I’ve learned how important patience, consistency, and love are when it comes to caring for animals. I always make sure every fur baby feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every single one like they’re my own.

“I highly recommend Andrew!!! We had to quickly set up regular dog waking with him due to an injury and he has been amazing with our very stubborn dog, taking her on long walks when we couldn't. We are really appreciative for his care and hope to schedule many more walks with him in the future!”

“Anna is amazing! She has been walking our pup every day for the past few months. Anna not only walks Charlie but actually spends time playing with him and training him - she even taught him the paw command! Anna sends very detailed reports and lots of cute pictures after every walk. Being first time puppy owners we feel so lucky to have Anna looking after our pup!”
