Dog Lover from FL to WA to MA!
Pet care experience
I have grown up with dogs my entire life & I knew that I eventually wanted a dog of my own to care for. This led me to adopt a dog from a rescue's litter! On October 2, 2015, I was able to introduce a beautiful Terrier mix into my life: Bowser, my adorable fur child. I know exactly what it's like love a dog as if they are your own child. Bowser has been by my side ever since, even to the point of driving across the country from Florida to Washington, then back east over to Massachusetts. She is my pride & joy! I understand the struggle of finding someone who genuinely cares about pets as if they are their own. It's hard to leave my own pup alone for multiple hours out of the day when I have to & I anticipate when I get to go home because I love being around her. I'm probably guilty of spoiling my dog too much, but to be honest, I see her as my best friend so I can't imagine treating her as anything less. I want owners to know I care for their animals as much as I care for my own pup. I am always so wary of the care each certain dog needs in order to feel comfortable & happy around me & in the environment they're in. I have no doubt in my mind that dogs will love me as much I will love them!
Reviews
We love Bea! She's extremely responsive, friendly and our dog loves her! Would definitely recommend.
Bea is fantastic! I initially booked her for a super last minute evening walk and she came through with flying colors. My dog loves her and she often brings her own dog so my dog has someone to play with which he loves. I would 100% recommend her - she's friendly, great with dogs, and very quick to respond.
Always prompt and we could tell from her pictures and communication that she and our dog were having a great time together.
Bea was a wonderful dog walker for Henri! She is communicative and friendly. Her generous attention to Henri was much appreciated and he warmed to her quickly!
About Bea A.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always make sure doors are locked after I leave the home, as well as check in (either via care instructions or text), letting you know how I left your pet! Communication is a huge part of who I am as a caretaker -- you will always know when I arrive & leave, as well as anything that happens out of the ordinary that I feel is necessary to mention. Your animal's well-being & safety is ALWAYS my top priority!
Information Bea A. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if there are any special needs your animal require or any behavioral issues that can be addressed before we meet! I have more experience with smaller dogs personally (having grown up with Chihuahuas most of my life), but I've walked & sat animals of all sizes at this point!
A typical day
I love taking Bowser around open, green spaces, so I can imagine I'd love to find a spot that I can walk the perimeter of to get a good burst of exercise! I like to scope an area out before I arrive at your residence & see if there are patches of green on the map, that way the dog I'm walking can get their sniffing on & then we'll head on our way. I love a good hike, so if there are any trails nearby, that is super ideal!! if not, a good route planning to ensure we get a full walk in works too! I try to walk for at least one mile before I end the walk - it's beneficial for the dog & for me too!
