Im currently working remote, so I am home everyday! The only times I leave the house are to get food, see family or friends or if I have planned advanced trips. I spend most of my time at home with my own pup so I can easily include your pet into my routine and have plenty of time with them!

I live in a spacious townhouse with a nice big fenced yard and a super friendly small terrier mix at home who is great with other animals. If need be, I can always leave my dog with family while taking care of your pet if they are better off alone! I also live near so many nice parks that I love to go to for long walks!

Information Claudia M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how friendly they have been with people, and any medical condition or issues I would need to be aware of. I love all types of breeds.

A typical day

I can take them through parks, around neighborhoods; wherever is available around me! My favorite right now is Bon Air Park, which connects to the W&OD trial which is so long and fun!

Pets

Dogs & cats make my heart happy!

Pet care experience

I have had animals in my family my whole life. I have never not had a dog or cat by my side from the moment I was born! I always offer to take care of friend's dogs and cats, and love to do so because they are the best company. I adopted my own puppy 6 years ago and it has been the happiest 6 years! I am always up for walking/running and keeping them company. I will be sure to love and care for your dogs or cats as much as I do with my own. I also worked with another dog walking app and had been doing that for the past few years, which gave me experience meeting dogs who don’t know me and walking them. This taught me how to handle situations and get better with new dogs/cats!

Claudia is excellent with our boys! We appreciate her administering medication twice daily to our older fella, and being mindful of their needs. She communicates well and gives us peace of mind, and she respects our home. We and our boys look forward to Claudia house sitting for us in the future!

Claudia is so nice, communication is great, and my dog is relaxed around her and her own dog, Rosie. She was very flexible with me having an emergency and having to come back early. I will definitely reach out to her when I have a need to again! Would recommend.
