Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog loving therapist home a lot
For pre-school career day, I brought a leash and said I would be a dog walker when I grew up. I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and cousins. I have also nannied in households with dogs that I would be responsible for. I love volunteering for BARCS and participating in Dogs Day Out. I am a therapist with flexible hours so being able to board and walk dogs is so fun for me!!! I do not work until the afternoon and my husband gets home in the early evening so our visiting dogs are only ever home for a 2-3 hour window during the week. He is also a dog love and loves to do PM duty with walks and dinner. I will provide much attention to your dog because I will be so excited to spend time with them. I can’t commit yet to getting a dog of my own so I am so happy to have visitors they will be treated with so much love, care, and attention!

Ratings and reviews
Claire and her husband Nolan took fantastic care of our Winston. We were in last minute need of a sitter for about 36 hours, and they stepped up and kept us updated on him all day long, it was truly a peace of mind we needed for the day to know that our boy was well taken care of while we were away!

This was our very first time leaving Tofu with anyone since we got him at 10 weeks old. Claire was great and met us a few days before for a quick meet and greet. Once we dropped him off with Claire and her husband we knew he was in good hands. She sent multiple updates and was super easy to commuicate and coordinate with. We're already booked again for another boarding next month!

Super sweet couple! Totally trusted Ozzy with them. Really great communication would highly recommend and use again. ❤️

Claire was great with our dog Theo! He settled right in and we could tell he was comfortable in all the updates and photos she sent us! I would definitely recommend Claire to anyone!

This was the third time Claire watched Milo and she did a great job taking care of him as always. Unfortunately, Milo was sick while staying there, but Claire was a great caregiver and was very communicative throughout. We would definitely leave Milo with Claire again.

Claire took great care of our dog Ryder! He has pretty bad separation anxiety, and she was able to stay with him basically the entire weekend which put our minds at ease knowing he wasn't in distress. She took him on lots of walks, played with him, and even brought him with her when she would leave the house. We really appreciated everything she did for him!

Schedule
I am a child therapist with most of my hours being in the late afternoon/evening so I have ample time at home. My husband who is also a dog lover gets home in the 5 o’clock hour while I’m gone to continue the love and care. This makes it easy and flexible for me to provide care for your dog.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I am home for long chunks of the day while your dog is in my care, we will be able to go on long walks and have lots of play time. I have several spare bedrooms so they can choose where they want to sleep, whether alone or with me!
A typical day
Fort McHenry is nearby and so fun to explore! We can go for long walks in the neighborhood and in parks nearby. If they prefer shorter walks that is fine too! I would ensure your dog is always safely secured in their leash at all times when walking outside. I love playing with dogs inside too and just interacting with them and including them in whatever I’m doing around the house.
