About: I have so many years of experience with various dogs. I have taken care of cute little Pomeranian and Chihuahua’s to my beautiful Golden Lab and German Husky! I will take care of your dog like I take care of my own dogs! I’m currently working part time; I am a realtor and school garden teacher. Walking dogs will allow for me to cover my skiing expenses that are coming up soon haha! I am huge on safety. I will make sure to air tag your dog first and for most, and make sure they’re always being watched. (I have my own air tag so you won’t have to disconnect to your air tag)

“FROM COOKIE AND WALNUT: Miss. Mallory was an amazing hostess! Our parents were a little stressed and forgot to pack us a few things but Miss. Mallory took care of everything including our beds and teddy bears. Cookie had a rough week at the vet so we didn't warm up and quickly as usual but Miss.
