Reliable & energetic dog walker!

Pet care experience

Hey friend! Thanks for checking out my profile! A little about me- I have two small fur babies of my very own and I understand the importance of finding quality, attentive care. My 2 yo male whippet and 10 yo male Italian greyhound have taught me so much about it takes to be a good dog mama. To start, my dogs are EXTREMELY leash reactive, so I have earned specialized experience working with dogs who aren’t well-socialized (mine for example) or have varying degrees temperament. I’m not a trainer by any means, I just know how to anticipate trouble and promote a fun experience for the both of us in the safest way possible. Likewise, I regularly care for my mom’s pets, one of which is a rescue puppy who consistently struggles with meeting new people and suffers moderate separation anxiety. Not every pet is the same, therefore my care will be customized to your pets’ needs. You will always be able to get a hold of me for that little peace of mind we all need and appreciate. Also, I love to engage in playtime and cuddle sessions! I cannot promise there won’t be ridiculous amounts of baby talk and affection during the visit ☺️ Shoot me a text and I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have :)

Information Christy S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know upfront about any special needs your dog might have, including feeding schedule, sensitivities, etc. I have no preferences when it comes to breed. Also, if you have a pooch with a fiery personality, then I’m absolutely a fan of meet and greets prior to the appointment!

I will treat your pups as my own and take them to dog parks, trails, and strolls around the neighborhood. If you have specific care instructions, I will follow them to the letter!
