Dog Walking Foggy Bottom

Your pet will receive the same care I would provide to my own

About: I'm currently a part time research assistant and a full-time dog lover. I lost my dog almost three years ago now and I miss coming home and being greeted by my dog. Seeing my dogs excitement as he wagged his tail and held his favorite ball made my heart happy. I cared for my dog throughout his 10 years of life, walking him, playing with him, grooming him, and giving him his medicine. Since my dogs passing I’ve also had the pleasure of taking care of other dogs. I’ve stopped in for visits and walked other dogs and also stayed the night at others homes to care for their dogs while their owners were on vacation. When it comes to dogs I know what I'm doing. I currently work part time with a flexible schedule. If you’re needing early morning care, someone to stop by for a midday walk, or someone to come by before you get home from work, I’m there! I have a flexible schedule so whether you’re out of town and need someone to stay or just need someone to drop in and play, I’m there! I live in a townhouse with a backyard in a quiet neighborhood.

I do not currently have any other pets so if your dogs is best alone I can provide a safe environment!
