I believe every pet has their own personality, pace, and needs - and great care starts with curiosity. I take time to understand what makes your dog or cat feel comfortable, confident, and happy. Whether that means slow sniff-walks, structured exercise, quiet companionship, or careful post-surgery routines, I tailor every visit to the animal in front of me. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, including strong pullers and reactive pups. I've safely walked a 110 lb dog who loved to lunge at squirrels, and I'm especially familiar with dachshunds recovering from IVDD surgery. My own dogs - a senior miniature dachshunds and a young terrier mix, have taught me a lot about patience, body language, and adapting care as pets age or health. Safety is always at the center of what I do. Pets are never mixed with animals outside your household, and I use AirTags on every walk for added peace of mind. Every walk and visit comes with a photo and a detailed update, and for multi-day house sits, you'll receive daily check-ins so you always know how things are going. My goal is simple - for you to feel completely confident that your pet is cared for exactly the way you want them cared for. Whether you're a busy professional needing reliable midday walks or a pet parent looking for someone who understands careful handling, I'm here to help your pets feel safe, understood, and loved like family.
