About: I’ve always had a passion for nature and animals you can find me taking my dog out on a trail hike every weekend!

Animals are angels in my eyes and I hope to be able to take care of your angel and give you peace of mind and a carefree day! I currently attend LSU, so my schedule fluctuates depending what my classes require or if I have a test scheduled or even acting performance. Currently, I attend LSU on Tuesdays & Thursdays! I’m highly committed to my studies in wildlife conservation and resource management! I prefer not to host dogs in my house due to being a college student, but the app requires a response to be a sitter.

“Tenay is a skilled and enthusiastic dog walker who keeps in touch when caring for pets. She stayed with my pup for three days while I was out of town, and did a great job, even managing to get my "loves to nap" dog out for some long walks (which he needs).

I have had pets since I can remember. My first pet was a jet black cat resembling the color of a raven.

I have experience with pigs, fishes, snails, but my most favorite of all horses! I truly enjoy engaging with furry loved ones and giving them the tender care they obviously deserves!

If you would rather me come to your house, I love taking long walks and am very used to playing with toys in the house to try to burn all of that energy!

About: I’ve always adored pets since I was young. I’ve had many in my life from cats,dogs,and rodents. I know animals are equal beings that need treatment with special accommodations. This requires patience which is almost unlimited for me.i currently have three cats that I’ve owned since they were 3-4 months old they’re now 6. I just got rats a few weeks ago they’re girls 6-8 months old. I believe everything follows a routine dedicated to them and I have no issue aligning myself to these routines. I’m still finishing high school at the moment and I have a job. But besides managing those I’m available weekdays after 4 if I’m not scheduled to work, weekends any time I keep my babies inside as much as possible. They’re allowed to free roam outside since they’re used to that lifestyle from before. They wear flee collars, jam is allergic. I cleanse them with daily grooming and anima safe wipes or soap if necessary. They’re fed 2-3 a day with half a cup or less of cat food I do plan to change their diets eventually. When it comes to other people’s pets I treat them with nothing but love and care and always stay considerate of whatever the owner says I should know about that animal. I’m extremely against cruelty brand products so I will avoid associating or using them.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gonzales
I am extremely impressed with Logan and his skills with dogs. We had a meet and greet before he started walking our dog, a 60 pound male mix breed. I could see on the house cameras our dog was getting protective and scared. Logan was able to help our dog get through those instincts and successfully walk him. Logan walked our dog for several weeks until our schedule changed and we were able to walk him again. Logan has a wonderful way of greeting our dog with overall body pats and rubs. Our dog would lay by the front door waiting for Logan to come. The moment our dog saw his vehicle, he would run back and forth between the front door and front window so excited for him to enter. We got so much joy watching his interaction with our dog. Another wonderful thing is Logan always cleaned up if our dog releaved himself during the walk. I highly recommend using Logan, I know you and your animal will be very satisfied!
