“Aeray is the most caring, loving, compassionate person you’ll ever meet. She treats every doggy guest as if they were her own. I’m never nervous about leaving my dog with her, even for extended periods of time. They get plenty of love and attention. She loves taking her guests out for long hikes and she makes an adventure out of it. She also makes sure to take lots of pictures and posts them on social media so I can see my doggo having fun in real time. I highly recommend Aeray for all my pet sitting needs. She’s the best!!”

“Aeray is fantastic! She immediately bonded with my husky mix and gave him one of the best days of his life running around in the snow while my husband and I went skiing! We hit insane traffic on the way home and Aeray was very accommodating and generous with our late pick-up time. She was great to communicate with prior and during the day care reservation and just a very pleasant person! Loved the photos she and her partner took of my pup loving life in the snow 🙂 I highly recommend Aeray’s dog care services!”

“Aeray and her Alesha were really wonderful dog sitters. I got my high-energy dog back tired after a day of playing in the snow and hiking. Aeray sent lots of photos and I could tell my dog was very well looked after. My dog is also shy at first and they immediately engaged her with toys/balls to make her feel at home. Very highly recommend Aeray!”

“What an incredible young woman! She watch my 6 spoiled rotten dogs and 3 spoiled cats. She was in constant communication with us to put us at ease over leaving our fur babies, she sent us a video showing how happy they were to see her. The best part was she actually swept my floors, I am used to doing it everyday, but did not expect her to do that, so when I walked in my house I can actually relax after my trip. She is an awesome person and I will hire her again and again. Thank you much for the TLC you showed my fur babies.”

‘We have a very anxious pup who was afraid to go for walks and we didn’t know what to do. We had heard of Aeray through some friends and decided to hire her as a pet therapist. We left Charlie with her for for 10 days and when we got back he was a different dog! The change in his confidence was astounding and he went from never leaving the house to LOVING hikes and easily running up to other dogs. We are beyond grateful and truly amazing at what she is capable of.”

“Most amazing dog sitter ever!! Aeray picked up our 2 year old lab 3 days in a row while we were skiing and took him on 2 hour hikes each day. He was worn out and she sent us lots of pictures so we could see how much fun he had. It was great. We could ski each day but knew that our lab was having just as much fun as us, maybe more! She was very punctual and in constant communication giving us updates throughout the day. We can’t wait for our next ski trip. Highly recommend!!”

“Aeray is absolutely great! You can tell by her pics she sends each day just how comfortable our 2 year old was with her. She took such good care of both Hannah and our home. This was the first time we had a sitter stay in our home. All our concerns were put aside and feel very comfortable with future needs. She’s got to be the best sitter we’ve ever had for Hannah. Couldn’t be more satisfied. Recommend 110%!”

“Aeray was amazing, coming through last minute to walk my dog while I was out of town. Logistics were super easy, she knew everything to ask way ahead of time, which was great considering we lost service the next day way earlier than expected. Came home to not only a happy, exhausted dog but tons of cute pictures she had taken! 100% great experience, would highly recommend!”

“I honestly wish I could leave more stars. Aeray could not have been any sweeter. She and her partner Alesha are true dog lovers and professionals. They took such amazing care of my senior dog, and went out of their way to be accommodating and help out in a last-minute situation. Aeray was flexible and stayed in touch with me all throughout. Going forward, we won’t use anyone else!”

“I booked Aeray while my husband and I were skiing at Squaw Peak. The pick up/drop off was always on time and the communication was excellent. They shared their instagram feed with us and we were able to see that our dog was having so much fun, playing in the snow with other pups and going on hikes. The second day at pick up, my dog was so excited and happy to go out! I could tell that my dog was in good hands and was treated with love! I will absolutely work with Happy Walker’s again the next time are are in Tahoe!”

“Aeray was so awesome with Lakota! Lakota is a 4 month old puppy, and this was my first time leaving her and she had a blast. They were so warm and friendly, I knew Lakota would love them! They had an epic day filled with hiking and playing in the snow. Highly recommend, Lakota will definitely be back!”

“Spectacular Service!!! Aeray took excellent care of our two dogs. They went on hikes, and socialized with other dogs who were there. We had considered boarding them but felt this would give them much more personal care and attention. One of my dogs has arthritis and although he couldn’t go out everyday he still gained more activity and looked great because they knew how to make sure he didn’t over exert himself. Communication is excellent and they are also on Instagram posting pictures of all the adventures our dogs went on. It felt like we left our dogs on a winter camping vacation.We found a gold mine in pet care!! We are so grateful for their service and will return next time we need help with our dogs.”

“Aeray & Alesha were amazing. They dog sat for over 2 weeks, cared for my dogs so well. My plants and home were clean when they left, dogs were super happy. Only issue I’ve had is that the dogs miss them! Would highly recommend and hope to have them back.”

“Aeray watched my cat first six weeks while I was in Europe and I couldn’t have been happier. I was so nervous to leave my car as she has severe fear of humans and six weeks is quite a long time to be on a different continent. Aeray assured me that she was experienced in this area of working with nervous animals and I was actually quite surprised at how much progress she made and how quickly. Within the first week the cat was coming up to her of its own accord. I didn’t think this would happen in the entire six weeks she was there. They were able to bond and I was able to feel safe and enjoy my trip knowing my Love you cat was in good hands. I would absolutely have Aeray back anytime!”

“Aeray was fantastic! She took charge of my high value home and 5 race cars, and became fast friends with my birds – even sending along videos of her playing with them and enjoying her company. Aeray is a great communicator and kept me up to date on everything that was happening while I was away. She is clean, responsible, conscientious, and my home was in perfect shape when I got back from my travels. Highly recommended and I have already told her she is welcome to come back for repeat house sitting anytime at my place. Can’t give a. higher recommendation than that! Thanks Aeray for a great sit!”

“I never leave my “farm” in anyone else’s hands but took a risk and hired Aeray and her 11 year old son to care for our house and animals for 10 days. I have to say if everyone is as wonderful as her I would never be worried! We have 2 horses (1 very cranky mare) & 2 dogs. After talking to Aeray on the phone & then meeting her with her son the evening before; I had no reservations that my pets would be well taken care of. Even the cranky mare 😃 was happy. Aeray’s son was the most respectful & polite young boy. Evidence of her character. For some reason we had some electrical issues, a circuit breaker popped! Poor Aeray was unable to open the garage door. She handled the situation with just a quick text to me. My home was neat & tidy when we arrived home, probably cleaner than I left it. Thanks to Aeray she relieved my stress about leaving my home & pets to someone that WAS a stranger. She feels like family now & it was evident my dogs loved them both.”

“We were gone for 12 days and Aeray made us feel at ease the minute we left for our trip. Our 2 dogs barely missed us!! The house was in excellent shape when we returned and she handled everything with ease, giving us a few updates on the dogs well being along the way of our trip. We will definitely ask Aeray to take care of our dogs again (they miss her!!)”

“Really loved having Aeray stay with my 2 older rescue pit bulls for almost a week sit. She was super communicative and responsive and followed the instructions for caring and walking my dogs. I got videos and pics of how great Bruno and Edna were doing under her care. My house was in perfect order upon my return. I felt 100% secure having her take care of my babies and my home. I’d not hesitate to have her house sit again. My dogs loved her!”

“Aeray got the routine of King, my Boxer dog right away. Aeray and King got along beautifully and most importantly, they had fun as I got pictures of their daily walks, playing at the park, etc. King really enjoyed his time with Aeray and now he’s missing her.
Also, when I got back, my home was cleaned and and everything was ordered. Would I have Aeray back? Absolutely!!”

She kept the house clean and tidy when we arrived home, and she sent pics/ videos of the doggies while we were away. I was able to relax and enjoy my family vacation knowing my fur babies were in great hands. I highly recommend her!”

“Really great experience with Aeray. They took care of our dog Pete for the day. They communicated regularly and clearly at every step of the process. They were flexible, polite, and I believe they genuinely cared about our dog and worked hard to provide solid service. We’d gladly have them care for Pete again. Happy to refer her to other people looking for someone to care for their dog.”
