C.J has been running my dog Chloe for one and a half years. He has been a lifesaver. Rain or shine, cold or hot, he never cancels and is always reliable and cheerful. Chloe was 2 and a half years old when I found C.J. On her recent checkup, the vet had declared that she was possibly the most energetic dog that he had ever encountered, and furthermore, that it was in her personality and she would always be that way! He urged me to find someone to run her in the mountains. She is a born athlete he said. But I am not a runner, and my daily walks were clearly not cutting it. Enter C.J.! Once I found C.J., Chloe began running twice a week. She is so much happier and easier to have around the house. The only downside is the jealousy. There is no question that C.J. is Chloe’s most favorite person in the world. I see the video’s each week of the fun that she has with her dog mates on the mountain trail and running through the creek at ferocious speeds chasing each other back and forth. Who can compete with that! But I get huge pleasure knowing how happy she is. Thanks C.J.

I can’t recommend CJ highly enough as a dog walker and sitter! From the moment we met, it was clear CJ is a true dog lover with an incredible knack for understanding what makes each pup tick. My dog Joey absolutely lights up when CJ arrives—whether it’s for an epic hike through the trails, a refreshing run, or just some quality playtime and cuddles at home.
CJ is incredibly trustworthy, always communicative with updates and adorable videos, and goes above and beyond to ensure Joey gets the exercise, attention, and care she needs. Thanks to CJ, I never worry when I’m away; I know my furry best friend is in the absolute best hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable, energetic, and genuinely passionate about dogs, CJ is your person!

We’ve been using CJ as our dog walker for the past two years, and I can’t express enough how grateful we are for him. Every time Jerry goes out on a hike with CJ, he comes back home so happy and fulfilled—it’s like he’s had his own little dog adventure. He’s learned to be part of a pack and absolutely thrives on that social time.
Beyond that, CJ has also taken care of Jerry when we’ve traveled, and I trust him absolutely. He suffers from anxiety when he’s away from us but with CJ he felt right at home. If anyone is looking for someone they can count on completely, I’d recommend CJ in a heartbeat!

When our former walker took on a new job he instantly recommended CJ. We wanted someone who would give our dog, Gary, the same level of exercise he was used to getting. Almost two years on and CJ has always delivered. We appreciate how CJ considers the personalities of the other dogs he will be walking Gary with. It’s worked out so well that on days when I am not working, Gary and I will sometimes go to meet up with CJ and the pack just so he can have a good romp with his buddies. Gary always greets CJ with so much affection and excitement that it’s clear CJ is one of the best parts of his day. I Also appreciate that CJ keeps his packs to a manageable number, so that all the dogs get full attention and maximum exercise. Gary always comes home mellow and relaxed. The only thing I wish is that I could always be there for the adventures, but at least CJ always sends videos of the day’s fun. I highly recommend CJ.

PAW-SOME!
My pups absolutely LOVE CJ! Whenever I mention his name while getting ready for a trip, they get so excited—they jump all over me and wait by the door for him! When I drop them off, they sprint toward him and don’t even look back 🤣
I’ve known CJ for 7 years, ever since he started helping me with my first pup, Dazey, for walks and overnights. Four years ago, we added Pablo to the pack, and he loves CJ just as much. Honestly, CJ has been such a blessing. He’s reliable, flexible, understanding, and genuinely cares. I’ve had plenty of last-minute requests, and 99% of the time he’s been willing and able to help.
When my pups are with CJ, I have total peace of mind. They’re cared for, loved, and always have fun. He takes them on adventures—usually hikes in the nearby woods—and carefully supervises them while they explore. He’s trustworthy, responsible, and truly a dog lover and friend to them.
Your pups are truly in the best hands with CJ!
Give your dog the adventure they deserve, and give yourself peace of mind.
Whether it’s a neighborhood walk, an energizing run, or a nature-filled hike, we’ll make sure your pup has the time of their life.
