"We cannot recommend Tim and Have Leash Will Travel highly enough. They have been caring for our 2 older dogs for  over a year through regular bi-weekly walks and fairly regular overnight stays while we travel. When we found out one  of our dogs had two terminal conditions Tim was the only person we trusted to care for her when we were out of town.  We are extremely selective about who walks/ watches them and have "fired" several other companies for not living up  to our standards. But Have Leash Will Travel treats our dogs like they are their own, which means everything to us. We  always trust them to care for our dogs in the same way we would."  -  Meg V.

"Tim was a referral from our neighbors after we had a few bad instances at doggy daycare and wanted another option.  Tim has since been our pup's dog walker for more than 3 yrs now and we couldn't be happier. Dillon, our 6 yr old yellow  Lab sees Tim each weekday, she doesn't bark when he arrives, instead just matches his calm demeanor. Our favorite  thing about Tim is how seriously he takes his job. It is clear that he genuinely cares about Dillon, he reinforces positive  behavior on walks (no pulling, etc.) and makes sure she is well loved with pets, a few treats and fresh water after each  walk. We receive text updates each day and trust him implicitly in our home and with our pup and appreciate his strong  accountability to his job."  -  Kelsey K.

"Tim comes 4 times a week on average to assist with our dog, Toby. He takes him on a solid walk and makes sure he handles whatever needs there are to be met. Toby had some separation anxiety but after working with Tim we haven't seen any signs of it for quite some time. For over 5 years we have been very satisfied with Tim Ilg and highly recommend him to anyone looking for his services."  -  Marty R.

"Tim is the best dog walker you could ever ask for. He is responsive, reliable and flexible. Many times we have switched our "normal" schedule (as I travel for work) and it has been such a relief to have him make sure our puppy is well taken care of! He is also communicative and lets us know in detail about each visit. Best part of it all - our puppy LOVES him. And we do too!"  -  Joanna C.
