🐾 Accepting New Dog Walking & House Sitting Clients 🏡 Preference given to Rutherford and Ellerslie areas 📎 References available in my profile Hello! I’m an experienced, professional animal lover offering dog walking and house sitting services. I don’t do this for the income — I do it because I genuinely love animals and enjoy helping people feel at ease while they’re away. I have a full-time career, don’t drink or smoke, and approach every booking with professionalism, respect, and care. A bit about my background: Grew up on a farm with a family that professionally trained cattle dogs 7+ years of experience house-sitting and boarding 5 years as a licensed property manager (I understand how important trust and communication are!) Experienced with bully breeds including Rottweilers and Pit Bulls — they hold a special place in my heart. I also offer help with leash manners and basic behavioral consistency. Great with high-energy dogs — happy to take them for runs or extra-long walks! When I stay in someone’s home, I treat it with the same care and respect as my own. I understand how vulnerable it can feel having someone in your space, and I do everything possible to make you and your pets comfortable. 🐕 Meet & Greets: For new clients, I require a paid dog walk as our meet and greet — it’s the best way to ensure a great fit for everyone (especially your pets!). 💰 Rates & Discounts: My rates are slightly higher than average — but the personalized care, peace of mind, and one-on-one attention your pets receive are truly priceless compared to kenneling. Discounts available for extended stays. Puppy rate applies to pets that are not house-trained or require medication (oral or injectable). I purposely don’t book back-to-back stays to allow flexibility for families traveling and to ensure I’m fully present for each client. Feel free to ask me anything — communication and trust are everything. Texting is always welcome! 🐾 Preferred Client List: Long-term and repeat clients get first choice on major holidays.
