Basically being home alone all day was tough on the guy.... After meeting Baraket and beginning daily walks with her, his spirit totally changed. I could immediately see when I got home from work that he was happy and relaxed - he felt exercised and that he'd gotten attention. It made a world of difference in my life and his. I recommend Gotta Go Dog Walking to the highest degree. The communication, care, epic photos of the pooches, and general positivity towards Tucker's well being, especially as a senior, has been one of the best parts about relocating to this part of Brooklyn. I super recommend contacting Baraket to set up a meet and great to begin what will absolutely improve your dogs daily life and your experience as a pet parent. Thanks Baraket for always going above and beyond for Tucker and being the best!

We lived in Bay…read moreRidge and had the pleasure of working with Bareket for several years -- and she was nothing short of amazing with our two boys, Max and Auggie. Bareket has a true gift with animals and treats every dog like family. She consistently went above and beyond, showing up rain or shine -- even in unbearable heat -- always with a warm smile and genuine excitement to see our dogs. Often, she'd take them on longer walks than required simply because she loves what she does. What really set Bareket apart was her incredible flexibility. She was always willing to accommodate our ever-changing schedule, often stepping in at the last minute when work got hectic. Her reliability and kindness gave us so much peace of mind. We recently relocated from Brooklyn to Boston, and without question, one of the hardest goodbyes was parting with Bareket. Her care, dedication, and connection with our dogs were unmatched. I don't just recommend Gotta Go Dog Walking -- I truly believe you're lucky if you get the chance to have Bareket in your dog's life.

She came to meet my…read morepup Bowser a couple days after I messaged her and was very professional, kind, and I knew he'd be in good hands. Bowser was nervous at first to meet her but Melissa was very patient with him, and now he loves waiting for her at the door for his daily walks. He just finished his first week of walks with Melissa and has made a couple new pack friends. Melissa sends prompt updates through their website after every walk to let you know if your pup did their business and even sends pictures of the pack. On the website, you can update all your pets' information, contact info, notes, and check the schedule too, it's so convenient. I can't recommend Melissa enough.

We've been thrilled with Melissa at Petletariat for the year-plus that she's been walking our dog…read more When our rescue puppy first arrived, we were scared and intimidated and didn't know quite what to do -- the thought of handing him over to someone else for afternoon walks was petrifying. As soon as our pup first met Melissa, we knew we had found our dogwalker. Melissa is everything you could want in a dogwalker: great with dogs (obvi), punctual, reliable, and dedicated. Her website is a breeze to use, and she almost always messages us with a report on the afternoon walk. As an added bonus, most of the walks seem to be group walks, so our dog stays social and even more active. We know he loves his walks with his buds and Melissa! We've also used her for boarding, which went extremely well. Melissa genuinely cares about the health, comfort, and happiness of the dogs she walks, and our dog likes her just as much as we do (and might prefer her to us!). If you need a dogwalker in the Ditmas area, Petletariat should be your first email or call.

She is responsible, exceedingly easy to work with and clearly loves the dogs that she walks. Whether it be e-mailed photos of my dog's walk or a detailed summary of the day's walk, I always feel comfortable with Lexi caring for my dog and knowing that she is in great hands. As a dog owner herself, it was undoubtedly obvious right from the start that she is a total animal person and right from the meet and greet I knew that this would be a simple decision (I actually had a couple of meet and greets with other people prior to meeting Lexi and was never fully comfortable, but after meeting Lexi I knew it was a no-brainer). 5/5 stars and completely at ease letting her walk my dog (who is essentially the most important thing to me in this world).

For months my doormen watched them walk my dogs for X amount of time and brought it to my attention through casual conversation. I told the doorman that they were supposed to be walked for Y amount of time! He assured me that this was not the case and that my dogs were not and that I was being takin advantage of!!! I always kept a log so they must sign in and sign out and leave brief description about the day. Routinely they logged in at the same time and check out at the same time for the X amount of time. I couldn't believe what i was hearing because they seem so nice to my face. So i then put into place a recon mission with my doormen. They began tracking times in and out for months. These times matched my buildings dog walker key log!! They were lying on my log by falsifying the time of day and also the length of the walk. They were paid for double the amount of time they were spending with my dogs! They were basically giving my poor dogs a relief walk when they should have been exercising the dogs for the amount being paid for! THIS WENT ON FOR MONTHS ! I DON'T KNOW HOW MICH LONGER IT WENT ON PREVIOUS TO MY RECON MISSION AND HOW LONG IT WOULD HAVE CONTINUED IF MY DOORMAN HADNT BROUGHT IT TO MY ATTENTION!!!!!!!! SO TO CONCLUDE THEY MAY SEEM NICE TO YOUR FACE BUT WHEN YOUR NOT HOME THEY CAN BE LIARS CHEATS AND THIEVES! BEWARE IF THEY WALK YOUR DOG THEY COULD BE NEGLECTING YOUR PETS AND TAKING ADVANTAGE OF YOU!! BEWARE!!!!!!

When my husband had to go out of town for a long weekend I knew I couldn't leave Bosco at home alone all day so I quickly scrambled to see who offered pet sitting in the area and found Jenny! After a quick video introduction we arranged for two days of dog sitting and she saved the day! The website she uses to make appointments, pay, and get updates is super easy and helpful and she even texted a few pics to show how he was doing the first day. She was flexible with my drop off and pick up hours and was always very responsive to texts. When I finally got Bosco home at the end of the day he was exhausted which was great. He doesn't usually interact with too many dogs so I was glad to hear he was getting along okay and I'd love to bring him back just to socialize him more. I would definitely recommend Jenny. The whole process was so easy and Bosco seems to have enjoyed himself!

When I came to pick him up, my baby was already walked and fed for the evening AND rocking the cutest tie! My dog came home happy yet exhausted - which always means he had fun. I'm so happy we chose Home Away from Home pet services. I'll definitely be using Jenny again when we go out of town. Thanks Jenny!
