Testimonials




Jacob + Ripley

"I cannot recommend Dov enough for his amazing ability to love and care for my chocolate lab, Ripley. Whether it’s her daily walks with him that leave her tired for the remainder of the day (a huge win if you are working all day), or my extended trips out of the country away from her (sometimes up to two weeks), I never have to worry about Ripley when she’s with Dov. Honestly, I don’t know where I’d be without Dov. Ripley cannot get enough of him and that just speaks volumes to how good he is with her. Dov handles Ripley like she is his own puppy and there is no greater gift than knowing your fur baby is in good hands. Hands down, Dov is the best dog handler/sitter I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. So happy he’s in our lives"





Mark + Zen

"Dov treats Zen like his own. She's shy with new people but after a short time she treated Dov like a second dog Dad, true to his name! Dov has looked after Zen several walks a week and boarding for both long and short stays. She always returns to me happy and well exercised, clearly well taken care of. I highly recommend Dov for dog walking and boarding your treasured family member."





Ashley + Nathan + Ely

"When we met Dov, our dog Ely gained a new dog dad. Dov was a godsend for us while we navigated going back to work with a new puppy. He was so thoughtful in reinforcing our training with Ely and helped us raise a better dog! He is always professional, reliable, and returns Ely happy and tired. Dov cares deeply about his work and all of his pups and that shows in everything he does. Knowing that Ely can board with Dov has also allowed us to travel stress-free and confident that our fur baby is well taken care of. We couldn't be more appreciative."





Kate + Karl + Daisy

"COVID left our extroverted Lab yearning for vital social interaction with other pups—something we couldn’t provide. Dov has transformed her world and ours. She eagerly awaits his arrival and returns home happy, tired, and anxiety-free. Pickup and drop-off are quick and contactless, with Dov always in a mask, texting as he arrives. Best decision we’ve made in years!"





David + Vittorio + Ruby

"Dovid has been walking our chocolate Labrador Ruby for several years now. He is a very loving person to Ruby. She is so excited when he arrives each day. And he returns the affection that she shows him. Dovid takes her on different types of walks, including off-leash with ball throwing. He makes sure that she gets plenty of exercise! He is very dependable, which is why we are comfortable having him board Ruby when we are out of town. We trust him, and that allows both of us to relax and not worry about how she is doing. He is a great communicator with us, letting us know how she did on the walk and how she is doing when we are away. We are very fortunate to have found Dovid and we highly recommend him."





Abby + Colin + Koze

"We are so lucky to have found Dov in the city. Our Australian Shepherd, Koze, adores him and runs to the door with excitement every time he picks her up. She returns home happy and tired from all the playing - it’s just what we need with our busy work schedules and an active young pup. Dov is kind, trustworthy, dependable and nurturing - you can tell right away how much he cares about each of the pups in his pack. We can’t thank Dov enough for taking amazing care of our Koze and highly recommend him for both dog walking and boarding!"





Bob + Jennifer + Josie

"Dovid is an excellent pack leader. His dog walking service is very much appreciated by us and by Josie, our almost 5-year-old yellow lab. Dovid is gentle, dependable and responsible. We are very happy to put Josie in his care. She comes home satisfied, tired, and relaxed. We highly recommend him."





Andrew + Eleanor + Jovi

"We cannot recommend Dovid enough!! He's a dog lover, dog whisperer and our dog's best friend. We lucked into him as our dog walker when our former dog walker, Dovid's friend, moved out of the city. It was such an easy transition for our cute but "special" dog who gets anxious and often does not deal with change well. Our dog comes home from outings with Dovid with a huge smile on her face (seriously!) and seems sad when she does not get to see Dovid. Our dog has had a few medical adventures - TPLO surgery and stomach problems. Every time, Dovid checks in and asks about our pup and gives us additional information to consider. We feel incredibly lucky to know that our first "baby" is well exercised and loved during the workday."





Heather + Mark + Bodie

"Dov is dependable, friendly and communicative. He LOVES dogs! Dov has walked our dog Bodie for more than a year. Bodie is always thrilled to greet Dov at the door and is always satisfied and pleased to relax on the couch when he returns home. We highly recommend Dov."





Aaron + Dave + Radar

"There is no one we trust more to take care of our dog when we can’t. Dovid boarded our dog for 10 days and did an incredible job looking after him, caring for his individual needs, and making sure he was well exercised, socialized, and cuddled. Best of all, Dovid communicated frequently with updates and photos, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation, worry-free."
