Dog Walking Eola

“Valerie is the best! She walked my pup 5 days a week, for nearly 9 months. Sadly, I had to relocate to Minnesota. If I could bring her with me, I totally would! We're both going to miss her very much. Especially little Edith. I highly recommend her.”

“Glen made sure our pup got his exercise on some nice afternoon walks while I was traveling for work. He arrived on time and sent a photo each time. Would recommend him!”

About: “Outside of a dog, a book is man’s best friend. Inside a dog, it’s too dark to read.” -Groucho Marx My mom would say I’m a cool dude. I work at night twice per week.

I usually take multiple walks per day, but able to adapt based on dog’s energy level. I live in a dog friendly neighborhood with a private backyard, so any dog will feel comfortable. Inside, your dog will have free roam of the main floor and lower floor including bedrooms. Dogs can be crated, if preferred, but a crate must be provided.

About: Animals have been an important part of my life since I was a teenager, when my family had dogs and I learned the responsibility that comes with caring for them. Over the years, I have had both dogs and cats and have cared for them through every stage of life—from the excitement and energy of their first days with me to providing love, patience, and comfort during their final moments. These experiences have taught me that caring for a pet is about much more than feeding and walks. It’s about understanding their personalities, routines, needs, and the little things that make them feel safe and loved. I know how deeply pets become part of the family, and I would care for yours with the same kindness, attention, and respect I have always given my own. I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to be present and attentive throughout the day. I can easily accommodate regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, or simply some extra cuddles and companionship. Because I’m home for much of the day, your pets won’t have to spend long periods alone. I enjoy having furry companions nearby while I work and can adjust my routine to fit their individual needs and usual schedule. Whether they’re energetic and ready for a walk or happiest curled up beside me, I’m happy to give them the attention and company that makes them feel comfortable and loved. I have experience caring for pets and understand the importance of keeping them comfortable, happy, and secure while their owners are away. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, companionship, and each pet’s individual routine and personality. I’m equally respectful when caring for someone’s home. I keep things clean, tidy, and secure, follow instructions carefully, and treat every home as if it were my own. I’m dependable, responsible, and happy to provide regular updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets and home are being well cared for.
