I booked two walks with her and unfortunately the first one was rainy (and my dog isn’t a fan of the rain!) but she was still able to get him out so he could use the bathroom and get a mini walk. For both walks she took photos and gave a brief rundown of how her visit went. She was nice and communicated well!”

This was Jett’s first walk with someone new, and Allie did an amazing job! She took him on several walks around the neighborhood and made sure to burn off some of his energy playing fetch in the backyard. Allie is reliable and great with dogs—I would recommend her. Thank you, Allie!

You can tell he cares for others pets like a member of his own family! Will definitely be having him baby sit my dogs in the future!

Olivia has been absolutely wonderful with my dog! She’s incredibly patient, responsible, and always communicates clearly and consistently.
