About: I have spent my whole life loving and caring for dogs. Around 7 years ago I got my own dog so I am well versed and the love and care that goes into taking care of your fur baby. I have experience with puppies through senior dogs, reactive dogs, and dogs post surgery! I currently have a hybrid work schedule and love to get out for walks during the day before work, at lunch, and after work. Those are the prime hours that I am available to take care of dogs whether it be a drop in to give the dog attention, a short walk, or a long walk. I’m flexible to adjust to your schedule and how you take care of your pet. I have experience with both crating dogs, dogs that have sections for free rein, or completely free rein dogs. I also have two large dogs so I am comfortable with bigger dogs being both on and off leash.

I work from home so I am very flexible with my schedule and available for all your pet’s needs! I love going on walks and getting outside! I follow your instructions to give the best care for your pets! I have taken care of more timid and aggressive dogs and know how to care for them.
5. Svetlanna & Javier V.
“You could not get someone who is as kind-hearted and warm than Svet. She immediately hit it off with Chewy petting him and loving on him right when they met! She always greets him outloud, and you can see how happy he gets every time they're in the same room. She loves animals, and they love her. Anyone who gets to a chance to have their pet taken care of by Svet is so blessed and lucky! I thought she'd be intimidated by how big Chewy is but she just had so much love to give. Can't wait for their next visit!”
6. Olga B.
“Olga really treats our dog as if her own. We are so thankful for her walking our four-legged son (who probably also has ADHD). Cannot recommend her enough!”
7. Rachael C.
“Rachael is absolutely amazing with my Hugo! She goes above and beyond and he absolutely adores her. I am so thankful to know he is in great hands and given all the attention and love he needs on days I’m away.”
8. Julia F.
“Julia walked my two dogs all summer while I was working. From the beginning, Julia took the time to make sure she understood my (very detailed!) preferences, always made sure she got things right, and was accommodating for schedule changes and when we moved. Julia was such a big help and I could entrust her with walking my two fur-babies. She is great!”

12. Anne W.
“Simply AMAZING! I was overhearing in my room and she didn’t know I was home. When she came in to pick up my pup for a walk she was patient and made sure he had water in his bowl before the walk so when he comes back he can have water. She goes over and beyond and I am so grateful!”
13. Danielle A.
“Dani is a wonderful walker for my pup! She was patient and gentle with her as they got to know each other, energetic during their walks, and loving during their visits - providing cuddles, treats & toy play time. I am looking forward to using Dani for many walks to come!”
