Courtney was great! My dog has separation anxiety & is usually freaking out when I get home after being gone all day. But this time, she was calm and happy. She clearly loved Courtney!

Taylor was such an amazing sitter! She gave me detailed updates every time she checked in on the pups. Will definitely hire her again if she is available :)

Keera was great with Archer and went at his pace! I got a ton of updates and Keera was super responsive and gave great updates! Keera was flexible when I was coming home sooner than expected.

Sheana came through when I was in a pinch. I needed someone to let the dogs out because I was stuck in traffic in the mountains. She responded last minute and had excellent communication. She’s the best!

It was our first time leaving Skittles with a sitter, and Daniel did a great job of assuaging our fears! He was super communicative and made sure we knew that Skittles was in good hands. Highly recommend!

boarding

Kelli was awesome boarding my two dogs. Not only did she give daily updates with videos and pictures she also worked with them on introducing them to her cat and getting used to her big dogs. Can't recommend enough!

Take a leashed walk at Miriam's Park through the wide open green spaces where there’s plenty of room to run and fetch. Your pooch will love a sniff-tastic browse around the trees surrounding the park, and the opportunity to spot a few squirrels playing on the tree trunks in the spring. Water fountains are available in the park, but do bring along a water bowl for your pup. Pack a picnic lunch for you and your pooch after your exercise and spend a little more time in the outdoors before heading home. The park also boasts a playground and soccer fields.

Enjoy the Elks Memorial Park where you and your leashed pooch can  take a dog-tastic hike through the park. At the top of the mountain, you can enjoy awesome views of the Delaware River. From Point Peter, a large panoramic vista presents the Delaware Valley and the Delaware River that separates the states of New York and New Jersey from Pennsylvana. Bring along a picnic lunch and eat at the top under the flag. There are a few benches, and many picnic tables and grills along the way to rest and have an outdoor meal. Do be aware that this park has no restroom facilities.

The Sergeant Road Trail is part of the larger trail system that includes the cities of Cedar Falls and Waterloo. The trail parallels US 63, also known as Sergeant Road, and extends from Waterloo to Hudson through rural and park areas. Your pup will love a leashed walk on this old and scenic railroad corridor. The trail surface is asphalt, making for easy walking. Visit the Hope Martin Memorial Park for its beautiful nature area, and just right for a sniff-tastic adventure for Fido. The beautiful green space and trees provides a great place for some doggie play or to just enjoy the outdoors.

Reed Park is a fun leashed walk with views of the Cedar River. This green space provides a great place to relax, as well as a great place to exercise that pup! The nearby Rooff Park also offers space where you and your pup can enjoy a good walk, and then have lunch at the picnic table before returning home. After exercise, stop in at the Screaming Eagle American Bar & Grill, a casual spot that serves up a variety of delicious pub grub, and where your pup can join you at the outdoor tables.
