“Emily did great with my two pups. I hired her to walk the dogs while my parent's dog was staying with me to make sure they got extra attention. My Finn warmed up immediately, Lily took a little bit but she always came home happy from her walk. She was always on time and sent lots of cute pictures as updates.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have over 30 years of experience caring for family pets. Feeding, walking, playing, and giving them lots of love has always been a natural part of my life. We don’t have any pets of our own right now, so we’re excited for the opportunity to love on and care for other people’s pets! Every pet is unique, and I’ll make sure yours feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’ll treat your furry family member like one of my own. We are business owners and a homeschool family with 4 animal loving kids without any pets of our own right now- we would love the opportunity to love on your pets when you can't! We have a mostly fenced in yard and a walking path! We enjoy being active and always choose pet friendly locations wherever we go! Our goal is to keep your pet feeling loved and safe when in our care! If you're open to children tagging along & your pup is comfortable with us we would love make this a family venture, but understand if that doesn't make sense for you!
“Kim is such a enthusiastic person. Our dog, Khloe goes crazy when she comes to walk her and hates to see her leave when she brings her back. Kim is outgoing, friendly, very responsible and clearly loves dogs. We love seeing her relate to Khloe. Thanks, Kim for being such a great dog walker and friend to Khloe. We have all appreciated your work.”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs gave me a deep understanding of the unique bond between pets and their families. As an adult, I spent six wonderful years caring for my own Standard Poodle, which taught me the nuances of high-energy breeds, regular grooming needs, and the importance of daily mental stimulation. What sets me apart is the same dedication I bring to my role as a leader and a parent. I approach pet care with patience, reliability, and a keen eye for detail. Whether it’s maintaining a consistent routine, ensuring safety, or simply providing extra cuddles, I treat every dog in my care with the same love and attention I would give my own.

My home is perfectly set up for active and happy dogs. We have a decent-sized, secure yard for quick outdoor play, and we are located in a highly walkable neighborhood with easy access to local parks and trails, perfect for daily sniff-and-stretch walks. What makes my home unique is that your pet will be part of our family. My 4-year-old child is a huge animal lover who enjoys helping with gentle care, like supervised playtime and giving treats. Because my child is so involved, I am very intentional about ensuring that every dog I host is comfortable around children and that interactions are always calm, supervised, and positive. Whether it’s a quiet afternoon of belly rubs or an energetic walk on a nearby trail, I ensure every guest feels right at home. You can rest easy knowing your pet is in a secure, loving environment where they will be treated like one of our own.
“Tyler will continue to be my go to dog walker when I need help getting my 2 dogs their daily exercise. My pups are spoiled with daily outings , and dog park trips - we usually average 6-8 miles per day but often hit 10-12 miles once or twice every week…. with Tyler, I have peace of mind and confidence that my dogs will get a walk and the type of exercise they are accustomed to. They always return content , satisfied and most importantly exhausted! Thanks again Tyler!”
