Experienced Animal Handler, Trainer
Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Lucy, and I've been working with animals my entire life. I grew up with dogs, cats, horses, hamsters, you name it, and have worked professionally with domestic, wild, and farm animals since the age of 16, earning recognition for excellent animal husbandry skills along the way. I have a Petco-certified Positive Dog Trainer certification, and continue to study behavior analysis in my free time so as to better understand and communicate across species. I bring a unique capability to understand your furry family member's individual needs and preferences, and my day-to-day flexibility ensures that you and your pet will never be left hanging. Communication is key, and I am happy to send you updates as frequently (or not) as will make you most comfortable during your time apart. I'm also able and happy to accommodate special requests, and hope to have the opportunity to get to know you and your animal(s)!
Reviews
Lucy was punctual, professional, and communicative while walking my dog. My large Aussie mix can often be energetic and easily excitable, but Lucy did great with him. I enjoyed seeing the photos of him on their walks!
Lucy is an amazing pet caregiver! She instantly bonded with my pup and took time to learn about her before their walks. Lucy was always punctual, responsible, and an excellent communicator. I am so lucky that I found her to walk my dog, she is the absolute best!
Always does a great job with the animals! Our go to pet sitter
Lucy you are absolutely amazing!!! I cannot thank you enough for taking care of my baby! You were so professional, prompt and knowledgeable! I was at ease knowing she was in good hands, especially as my dog has some anxiety. Thank you so much!!!

Availability
I have worked in the animal care field throughout my life, most recently at a doggy daycare and boarding facility. I wanted to extend access to that type of care, so am now focusing on expanding my own animal care services. This, combined with my proximity, drive, ability to travel, and flexible schedule mean that your animals come first!
