About: Grew up in Alaska always with a pack of dogs by my side. Have tended dog sled teams. Would love to work with your dog regardless of size, breed, or temperament. Available before 11am M-F and after 8pm M-F. Available most weekends and holidays. Reach out with your needs and I'm sure we can figure it out! Will work with your animal based on their specific needs in their own home. No two dogs are the same and I understand that proper animal husbandry cannot take a one size fits all approach.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, and other small animals since I was a child for my family and neighbors. My first pet sitting job was watching a cat and a rabbit for my neighbor. As an adult I’ve also had to care for injured dogs and cats. I love animals and want to enrich their lives within my abilities. On a daily basis I take Maggie out several times a day for walks and play sessions in our dog park. Combining my high energy with my love of animals and the outdoors made dog walking a natural choice for a new opportunity for me. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I am attentive, playful, accommodating, loving, and so much more. If you have a specific exercise or feeding schedule or ANY specifics that you want me to adhere to I am very detail oriented and happy to oblige.

He enjoys playing tug-a-war with me and enjoys having me the one to fetch his toys. I easily get along with animals and enjoy playing and exercising them.
