Trails & Tails is incredible. Our dog Rikki has walked with Keith for 3.5 years (where does the time go?!). On the rare occasions he’s unavailable, owner Michelle steps in seamlessly. “Keith is coming” is Rikki’s favorite phrase—Keith is a true dog whisperer, attentive to what Rikki needs, and he sends the sweetest daily photos (a little documentary of Rikki’s life). Coordination is seamless through their portal, and Keith has also house/dog-sat for us while we travel—always perfect. We trust Keith, Michelle, and the whole Trails & Tails team with anything. With our busy work schedules, it’s such a relief knowing Rikki has Trails & Tails as part of his pack.

5+ years ago, I had a very large, very high-energy rescue dog that I was struggling to wear out on a daily basis. He grew too big for my young son to walk. I work full-time and getting in multiple walks per day was exhausting. When I hired Trails & Tails, my life completely changed! I have had the same walker, Keith, for years. No swapping up of walkers like some companies do! He is incredibly trustworthy, reliable, cheerful, and has a great relationship with my dog. Keith and others have been amazing pet-sitters, as well. I highly recommend Michelle and her capable team.

Trails & Tails are THE best! They are reliable, trustworthy, and very friendly! I’ve had a few last minute requests over the years and they always are accommodating. Michelle & Daniel are like family to Norman. We recently moved to NYC and miss Trails & Tails SO much! I highly recommend!!

I Love Trails & Tails. The crew is super responsive and responsible, and we ALWAYS get post-walk updates to know how things went. Our walker Cory is fabulous, and he adores our stubborn bulldog mix. I'd strongly recommend!

Jackson, Michelle, Patricia (and I’m sure all the team at trails & tails) are the BEST! They took the best care of my little girl while I lived in Seattle for a 7 month stint. They were live savers and able to accommodate my rotating nurse schedule and always took the BEST photos of my girl. They never missed a day and always arrived in their arrival window. I even used them for overnights in multiple occasions so that my girl could be comfortable in her own home. Me and my coworkers would always look forward to reading her doggy diary of her walk that day. Highly recommend this team!

Michelle and her team and wonderful pet walkers and we cannot recommend them enough!
Jackson and Cory were both so incredibly sweet and caring towards our blind senior dog and did everything we asked for to make her comfortable. Plus we got super cute pictures and messages from them everyday!
10/10 no notes! Thanks for caring for Maggie so well all this time!

Very happy with Trails and Tails. Michelle and our walker Keith are professional, responsive, and have made the process easy despite our inconsistent schedule. Greatly appreciate Keith's patience with our 70 lbs skittish pup. Write-ups, photos and other data provided with each walk is a neat bonus. Would recommend!

Michelle and crew are amazing. We have had dogs over 25 years and have had a number of dog walkers/sitters. When I interview her she greeted our dog, but did not over do it to impress me with her ‘dog whispering’ skills. I found this to be impressive. Our dog loves her and goes nuts when she comes. When she leaves he often wants to go with her! Michelle is an organized professional business person, emails daily reports and cute pics, on top of all communication, organized billing, always works around your needs. Thank you Michelle!

When I met owner Michelle and our walker Kay, I knew we found good people to help walk our little bud, Charlie. The process was painless and professional, the app is super easy and convenient to get reports of walks and manage the walk schedule, plus we get stupidly cute photos of our dog on every walk! We had some hits and misses previously with Rover, but Trails and Tails has been a great experience. I really like that we have a dedicated walker who my partner and I got to meet, and who genuinely enjoys spending time with our little one! Kay was so patient getting to know Charlie when he was warming up to have a new walker and I’m so grateful for how they’ve progressed. The peace of mind is incredibly valuable!

I've been using Michelle and Trails and Tails for almost 6 months since moving out of area for our last, much-loved dog walker. Michelle and company are great with my Thatcher. I always get a report on the day's outing, which I really appreciate. I never worry about whether he's taken care of. Michelle is a dream to communicate with and very responsive to last minute needs.
