Highlights
Pet care experience
Midday walks @ Alhambra and NE LA
I grew up with both dogs and cats, and I've been the person friends and family call when they need someone to look after theirs. Most of that has been in-home care: feeding, fresh water, litter and cleanup, medication, and staying long enough that the animal actually gets some company instead of a rushed visit. I'm newer to walking dogs specifically, so I want to be upfront about that. What I bring is patience, consistency, and attention to how an animal is actually doing rather than just checking a box. I read body language well, I'll follow your routine exactly as you describe it, and I'd rather ask you a question than guess. If your dog needs anything particular on a walk, tell me and I'll do it that way every time.

Safety, trust & environment
Since I'm walking your dog in your own neighborhood, my attention is on your home and your street. I double-check gates and doors going in and out, keep the leash clipped until we're fully back inside, and I don't use retractable leashes. I keep dogs out of unfenced front yards and away from other dogs unless you've told me yours is friendly and you want the greeting. I'll follow whatever routine you already have, including which door you use, where the leash lives, and whether your dog gets water or a treat afterward. At home I have a fully fenced yard and cats, so I'm used to being deliberate about containment. If anything goes wrong on a walk you'll hear from me right away, not at the end of the day.

Schedule
I run a tutoring business and my sessions don't start until the afternoon, so my weekday mornings and midday are completely open. That makes me a good fit for the late-morning to early-afternoon window when most dogs have been alone for hours and need to get out. I'm consistent week to week, so if you want the same time every Monday through Friday I can hold that slot for you. I'm offering walks and drop-ins only.
