Animal lover and avid walker

Pet care experience

I raised my childhood dog from the age of 5 to the age of 17 so I have experience in every aspect of dog care, down to cleaning the inside of their ears if they have a yeast infection! Friends and family have called on me numerous times to dogsit for them while out of town and I give their pet all my love and attention while there. I frequently hear, "wow, my pet doesn't usually like people, but they really seem to like you!".

Boston is great with dogs! She is very caring and diligent. She watched my dog sometimes and takes really thorough care of him. I would recommend her to anyone!

Safety, trust & environment

My apartment is pet-friendly and has a wonderful 1/2 mile path with doggy bags provided. I do not have pets so if you would like me to take them to my place, they won't have to worry about any other pets in the apartment. However, I am more than comfortable walking and caring for you pet by/in your home or any place you prefer!

Information Boston K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know anything you want me to do while caring for your dog. I don't mind a "hover parent", and I don't mind a more hands-off approach- I trust you as the owner to know what is right for your pup. It is helpful for me to know the dog's general temperament, likes & dislikes, and typical routine, but obedience needs, quirks, and special needs are important to disclose as well so I can give your dog exactly the care it needs.

A typical day

Even without a dog companion, I love walking and do it every day. Short walks, long walks, even runs- I'm your lady. Any training needs you provide for me, I can follow to the letter- my dad is known as the Dog Whisperer for his expertise in behavior psychology and he taught me the ropes of patience and dog-friendly reinforcement.
