My dog is afraid of men and Tyler is working super hard for them to be besties. Thumper has warmed up to Tyler very fast for him. We have a tiny bit to go but things are progressing quickly.

Details: 2 dogs • 1 - 2 years old • 2 - 10 years old • Large (41 - 70 lbs) • 15 minutes • Prefer a private walk for my dog(s) alone • The dog walker travels to me

Tyler came over to meet our pups a few days ago. He was able to calm down our crazy terrier who was in the middle of a meltdown. Tonight, Tyler came over to walk, feed/water, and hang out with our pups for a bit while we were out of town. No accidents, and the pups were very relaxed. We will be using Tyler again.

Details: Dog • 2 pets • Taking pet outside • Providing companionship • Dispensing medication • Giving food and water • Standard visit (60 minutes) • Two times a day • The pet sitter travels to me

Poor responsiveness. Was told on 2 occasions that she was going to call me to discuss working with my dogs. She reached out after not calling the first time and said she would call the next day. I never heard from her and she did not respond to my messages.

Details: My home, venue, etc.

I had to go out of town unexpectedly for a family emergency. Absolutely ridiculous that you’re allowed to leave a review for service I never provided, promised to provide or even discussed. You were never a client nor will you be
