All Puppy Love personnel are carefully screened and experienced with animals. Because they are all current or former pet owners, they understand the responsibility involved in caring for animals.

Puppy Love walkers are bonded and our company is insured. The company is a member of the National Association of Pet Sitters International. References are available upon request.
