About: A great dog walker is someone who not only loves dogs but understands their needs, temperament, and energy levels. They’re patient, reliable, and always focused on keeping dogs safe and comfortable during their walks. This is where I come in! As a dog owner of 10 years I have a keen awareness of dog behavior and can help handle different situations, whether it’s dealing with a nervous pup or a playful one. I will keep owners updated on their dog’s well-being. I am passionate, trustworthy, and dedicated to ensuring each walk is a fun and enriching experience for the dogs in my care I currently work from home full - time. However, I have a flexible schedule to where I can walk a dog in the mornings, during lunch, and in the evenings. I am available on weekends for any time that is needed. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to run. Dogs are welcome in all parts of my home - including laying on the couch and making themselves comfortable.
About: I offer great service. I’m good with both cats and dogs, I understand pet care and how to properly socialize with them. I’m attentive and patient with the vibrant personalities of any pet! I require that first time clients schedule a video chat with me prior to any services to ensure the safety of your home and your pet. Please do not text me personal phone numbers. I lost my senior yorkie at the start of this year. However, she was very pampered and cared for. Our daily routine is consistent and I monitor her health closely as well as give her plenty of attention and play time. She’s very attached to her home and her family, and very protective, so it’s important that she has lots of love. She’s a cuddler and goes for the mouth with kisses. Her stomach is very sensitive and she has a strict diet. She’s a great companion, however, and a great bugler alarm system as she barks at everything that moves. I understand greatly, the importance of a dog’s preferences and quirks. Nothing your dog could need is ridiculous to me at all. Your home will be greatly respected, and your pets will be my priority. I will keep your pet on their proper schedule and ensure that they don’t get lonely while you’re away! You would set the feeding schedule and I would take them on walks or let them outside accordingly. Of course we will have plenty of playtimes and I will do my best to limit any messes.
