Stephanie had done a wonderful job walking my dog, Mikey! She was very communicative and left great notes and pictures during his walks. He can be energetic, but she really handled his wild side without any problem. I could tell that she has a real love for dogs and felt like she was taking care of Mikey the way she would her own pup.

Rachel has been awesome with my pup, Copper. He is a little anxious with new people and Rachel has done a great job letting him warm up and he loves seeing her now! She is really communicative with sending updates and photos of their walks!

Leslie was wonderful for a random day when I needed two walks for my dog. She took extra long walks and was great at communication. My chocolate lab loved Leslie and was very happy when I returned home!

Ashley not only is a charismatic teacher and friend but an animal lover. She will love your pet with her entire heart and always make them feel welcomed, which she has done above and beyond for my own dog. Ashley is responsible and attentive to detail making sure your pet is always in a good state. As someone who trusts her own furbaby with Ashley, you can’t go wrong.

Adrianne is an absolute delight. She really does just love animals. She always sends me updates with pictures of her and our dog playing or cuddling. She has a natural mothering instinct that dogs just seem to recognize. She’s very kind and easy to deal with as a caregiver and seems to do what she does out of love.

Meg was great with my dog, Capone, and he seemed very comfortable with her. I appreciated her transparency when she let me know about an incident where an off-leash dog ran up aggressively to Capone, triggering a reaction. I will definitely use Meg again for walks!

Danny has been the primary dog-sitter for my family for the past 3 years. Danny is responsible, reliable, communicative, and absolutely loves my dog. She is excellent with all types of dogs and personalizes her care according to the needs of each dog. She takes my dog on long walks and plays with her - she goes above and beyond what I even ask her to do. She is one of my dogs favorite people and I know your dog will love her too!
