My pup is crate trained and able to be on furniture. I spend lots of time outside with her and will do the same with your fur baby!

Information Claire S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if there are any things that trigger your dog to be reactive in any way. For example: stray cats, other dogs, people with hats, etc.

A typical day

I walk around any neighborhood and let the dog lead with their nose. There are studies proving that letting dogs stop and smell is extremely mentally stimulating and important to keep them healthy so I do not rush on walks. I am also happy to play with your dog at home.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Claire and I am a long-time dog lover and dog mom. I have lived with different roommates dogs and cats for 5+ years now and have helped care for them during weekends away, and on busy days. I currently live with my 50 lb high energy mutt. I am comfortable with any sized dog as long as he or she is trained. I am a biologist and have studied animals and animal behavior so I have a good grasp on pets needs. I am willing and able to pickup or drop-off and give baths to your pets! I look forward to helping out when possible and meeting your furry friends.

Claire is amazing. She is gentle, reliable, experienced, pleasant, calm, super punctual. I also met one of her fur babies and her boyfriend. A true pleasure. Looking forward to working with her again.

Claire is my go to for looking after my fur babies! She always goes above and beyond for my cats, ensuring plenty of updates and pictures for the times I’m away. I feel comfortable having her stop in knowing they’re in good hands and that they’ll still get their favorite treats everyday. Couldn’t recommend Claire more!

Claire is a great dog lover. She currently has her own dog who is well trained a pleasure to be around and lives with her roommate who has a dog as well. She has helped neighbors with their pets while they are out of town as well as worked for another national dog walking service. She will give your pet lots of attention when are not able to. Your dog will love her!
