Pet care experience
Wags, Walks and Happy Tails
Hi there, Claire here — your go-to pet care extraordinaire! With years of experience spanning ranch life, shelter volunteering, and rehabilitation fostering, I’ve had the joy of caring for pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. From daily walks and drop-in visits to overnight stays, feeding, medication administration, and beyond — I’ve done it all. As an avid hiker and marathon runner, I love keeping active pets engaged with fresh air and fun adventures, while also providing a calm, comforting presence for pets who prefer cozy snuggles and quiet companionship. Whether you’ve got a playful pup, a curious kitty, or a senior pet who needs special attention, I tailor care to their unique needs and routines. It’s my utmost priority to treat every pet like my own — with unconditional love, reliable routines, and activities that promote health, comfort, and happiness. With me, your pets will always be safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I always follow your instructions closely — from feeding schedules to medication administration — and make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure. I respect your space and keep everything tidy so you return to a happy pup and a clean home. If your dog stays with me, they’ll enjoy a calm, safe environment with plenty of space to relax, fresh water at all times, and a predictable routine that helps them feel at ease. Building trust matters, so I send photo and text updates to keep you connected while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Claire is exceptional at relating to dogs. I could tell from the first minute of interaction with my puppy that my puppy would be safe and well cared for and understood. Claire is also extremely flexible and goes above and beyond what a typical dog sitter is expected to do. I’m sure that your pet would have an excellent experience with Claire.
I’ve said it before and I’ve said it again, Claire is the dog whisperer. I am so grateful we found her 🙏🏼
Claire did a great job over a two-session stay at her house for an afternoon and then the next entire day. She was attentive and caring with Ulysses and he even got to make new puppy friends. She stayed in close touch with me the entire time. I highly recommend
Claire was so sweet to our girl and it was very obvious how much she cares about animals. Will definitely book with Claire again.
I had a fantastic experience with Claire! She was accommodating, responsible, and communicative. Claire also kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which put my mind at ease while I was away. My pups seemed happy and well cared for when we returned. The place was also very well taken care off :) I highly recommend Claire for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I'll definitely be booking her services again in the future!
Claire was absolutely wonderful to work with! She send us pictures, videos, and worked hard to make sure our nervous pup felt comfortable. I would definitely recommend Claire to anyone!

Schedule
Pet care fits easily into my weekly rhythm because it’s already a big part of my lifestyle. I plan my days around walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays so your pup’s needs always come first. Since I’m active and love the outdoors, scheduling daily walks and playtime feels natural — whether it’s a short potty break, a mid-day adventure, or a cozy evening visit. My flexible schedule means I can accommodate early mornings, evenings, and weekends. Whether you need a regular dog walker during the workweek or a sitter for a last-minute trip, I can adjust my calendar to make sure your dog has consistent care and attention.
