Dog skills

Safety, trust & environment

I care for my own pets in a loving, patient, and attentive way, always making their comfort, safety, and happiness a priority. I pay close attention to their individual needs, routines, and personalities, making sure they receive proper feeding, exercise, playtime, and affection. I treat them as part of my family, providing consistent care and a calm, nurturing environment where they feel secure and well loved.

Information Ciara M. would like to know about your pet

I often go on walks with my baby, so I’m unable to work with dogs that are overly reactive. If your dog is a smaller breed, I’m generally more comfortable walking them regardless of reactivity or activity level. However, this flexibility doesn’t apply to larger dogs.

A typical day

A typical day starts with a cheerful greeting. I take a moment to refresh their water, gather any essentials like a leash or waste bags, and then we head out for a walk tailored to their energy level and personality. During the walk, I focus on keeping your dog happy! Whether that means a brisk stroll, time to sniff and explore, or a slower, relaxed pace for older pups. I’m attentive to their behavior, surroundings, and safety at all times, making sure they feel secure and cared for. After the walk, I’ll ensure your dog is settled back in comfortably. I’m happy to provide updates, including photos and notes about how the walk went, so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

Pet care experience

I have hands-on dog walking experience from caring for my own dogs, ensuring they get regular, safe, and enjoyable walks. Through daily walks, I’ve learned how to manage different energy levels, handle leash behavior, and stay attentive to each dog’s needs while keeping them happy, exercised, and well cared for.

Ciara did a great job walking and feeding our dog Skippy. He is finicky eater and she got him to eat all his chow. She definitely has a way with animals. I highly recommend her services.
