About: I've raised animals of all sorts all my life so I am very passionate about giving the best care to any and all types of animals. I have spare time in my weeks to walk, play, pet and cuddle your pet. If you have a schedule set for them then I will keep them on it to the best of my abilities and if no schedule then I can wing it and even make one if you'd prefer. I supervise all outside time not just the walks, I keep a close eye on your pet to make sure no one gets into or out of anything their not supposed to and if you have a door charging pet I can keep them from slipping past and can even help teach them to refrain by request only. I work anywhere from 1-3 times a week which leaves me with a lot of spare time on my hands to help others furry friends. Though I don't offer stays in my home, I will be mindful of yours, if you have specific rules or routines for your pet I will happily uphold them and will always look out for the safety of your pet.

Pumpkin is a 100lb puppy, so you can be absolutely sure I can walk your large fur babies with no problem! I have also grown up with a lot of dogs under 30lbs, so walking smaller dogs is no issue either. I carry with me poop baggies, treats, and a portable water bowl on dog walks. They will be well taken care of and made sure they can enjoy their walk without being bored or thirsty! I hope to meet you and your fur babies soon! I would love to take them on a walk or just provide general care to them, and I am sure they will appreciate it too! I am available all through the week and work weekends. I can take your baby(s) on a walk any time needed. I would love to spend more time getting out into nature and let your baby do the same! I plan to walk your dogs at a park or somewhere dog friendly and safe! If there is a certain place they love to walk above all the rest, I can take them there too!
