Your dogs second best friend!

Pet care experience

I am currently pack leader at a dog daycare in Tacoma, and have worked at dog daycares in the area since 2016. My life revolves around dogs! My schedule is flexible, and I am mobile! I grew up spending my summers looking after 15 dogs on an acreage, as well as cats, pigs and rodents. I love big dogs especially, no dog too big! :) I’m eager to tailor services to best benefit you and your dog and any special needs or requirements you or your pup may have. I have worked in this industry for many years and have seen it all, I thrive on finding workable solutions to help you and your dog live your most happy and fulfilling life. I look forward to meeting you!

August did a great job sitting for our 17 year old cat. I signed up last minute and she did everything we asked. I loved getting pictures of a very happy kitty.
