“Christine was great, loved our little Roxy as we do, communicated very well via the initial home visit and texting thru out the dog walking time frame, even sent us a few pictures.”
“Kelli has been an absolute Godsend to me and my pups life! Her communication is 10/10! As an owner of an older pup, my dog has been through some changes with her body. Kelli has been more than a helping hand when it comes to helping her stand up, making sure she goes potty safely, giving medication or cleaning a wound! She is extremely friendly, easy to reach out to and I know my pup absolutely loves spending time with her. I am so lucky to have found someone who truly cares about my pups wellbeing and is flexible!! Thank you for everything you have done for us, we appreciate you!”

About: I’m a dogs best friend, I like walking and being outside as much as they do! I grew up in a dog household and then began caring for dogs in clients homes for over 15 years now.

I’ve never trained my own pets but I’ve assisted with training by enforcing the clients training commands and wishes. Im in good shape and can hike or go for extra long walks if you have an active animal. I’ll love and treat your dog as if it were my own. I think dogs are the best listeners and I love to mirror their unconditional love. I have several references to put you in contact with per request. I have a flexible schedule right now and would love to fill my open hours with pet visits and dog walking. I’m often available for last minute bookings. I have a fully fenced in backyard available for your dog to run. I do not have my own crates so a crate would need to be provided if necessary.

Sharina F.
“Talk about AMAZING!!! I usually don’t trust many people with my dog especially since he has certain attributes that others need to pay attention to when watching him. However, Sharina is very thorough and pays attention to every need with extreme care. She also ensures he eats very well and will often purchase fresh food to ensure my dog eats his best along with multiple treats readily available. Since she is an active person and also works from home, I can be sure that my dog is walked often and will always receive love and affection. My favorite part is her dog Bruno is just as loving as her. My dog gets so excited to see him and Bruno gets along with everyone and all other pets. Seeing them play all day is amazing. To take it up a notch, she also sends videos and pictures everyday to show any behaviors, activities, new adventures, or even sleep time. She is a wonderful sitter and I highly recommend her to anyone with your pet.”
Ethan L.
“Ethan is one of the few people that I trust to take care of my dog. He is dependable and trustworthy. He loves animals and it shows in how they react to him. He is very patient with animals and I have witnessed him training his own dog and mine to do different commands. I can truly say you can trust him with your pets and in your home with absolutely no worries.”
