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.

I love having Michael take care of our puppy Geronimo! He is incredibly reliable, punctual, and genuinely cares for my dog’s well-being. Not only does my furry friend come back happy and tired after each walk, but Michael also goes the extra mile by providing updates and even occasional cute picture. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and dedicated dog walker!

Anne took such good care of my pup while we were out of town! Jasper had a great time with her and Anne was always on time and a complete professional. Highly recommend her. She even did a meet and greet with us and Jasper before we went out of town. She’s super communicative and gave us peace of mind to know that Anne was taking such care of him while we were out of town.

Ashka is amazing with my 3 year old bernedoodle. Ashka is one of the most kind and loving people I know and is amazing with all animals. Whenever Ashka comes over, Mia is always so excited to see her and is very comfortable with her. Ashka has taken care of Mia before and has always made sure that Mia is happy and well taken care of. I would 100% recommend Ashka as a pet caregiver for any pet, she is caring, responsible, and trustworthy.

I would have Nicole pet sit for me in an instant. I’ve known her since elementary school and she has always been extremely detailed, kind, responsible, and someone that goes the extra mile for others. She will follow any instructions you give to a T and will definitely treat your fur babies as your own. Nicole is so gentle and understanding, and a pleasure to work with as a pet owner, too! Your pets are safe in her hands.

Harriti was great with my pup, Jackson. He is a big boy and reactive towards other dogs. Harriti had no problem on his walks and correcting any bad behavior with positive reinforcement. If you have a Pitbull or bully bread, i highly recommend!

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.
