Furry Friend Care Expert
Pet care experience
I'm a lifelong animal lover and dedicated dog walker! My journey began 19 years ago as a volunteer walker at the local humane society. Since then, I've worked in a variety of rescues, kennels and doggy daycares, looking after dogs and cats of all ages, sizes and energy levels. As an owner of a special-needs dog myself, I specialize in shy, fearful or reactive dogs and practice fear-free, positive reinforcement training techniques. If your pup has behavioral issues, send me a message to set up a free 30 minute meet-and-greet to address their special needs! I understand the importance of trust when it comes to your beloved pets. Rest assured, I prioritize the physical and emotional wellness of your furry family member above all else.
Reviews
I was delighted with Asami’s interaction with my pup Nanner. It's undeniable that she has deep connection with animals. My dog took to her right away, I’m sure the treats she offered helped, but even before that Nanner was in love. After her long walk, Nanner sat by the door waiting for Asami to come back. We’ll be using Asami for our dog walks going forward and hopefully for dog sitting as well. Highly recommend this dog whisperer.
Asami was great!! Came on time and was very sweet to my pup💖 will be hiring Asami for more walks.
Asami is awesome! Good with cats, dogs and rabbits. I can always rely on her to take care of my special pets with special needs. Especially my very anxious dog Olive.
Asami was INCREDIBLE! She took such good care of my dog and cat, and left my home spotless. She took my dog (who has issues pulling on her leash) on walks and hikes every day sent me photos every morning of their adventures together. My cat immediately LOVED her and she sent me photos of her daily as well. I could see from the photos that both of my pets felt comfortable around Asami and loved having her there.

Information Asami M. would like to know about your pet
Let me know any: - dietary restrictions - medication schedules - favorite toys or activities - behavior around other animals or strangers - anxieties, fears, or past traumas
A typical day
I'll structure activities based on your pet's preferred routines and energy levels. Mornings usually start with a walk or an outdoor play session, followed by breakfast. Throughout the day, there will be regular potty breaks and indoor enrichment with toys and cozy cuddle sessions. As the day winds down, we'd go on an evening walk or have another round of playtime to help to burn off any remaining energy before dinner and bedtime cuddles.
