Pet care experience
I have been a dog-owner all my life. I grew up with highly energetic, large breeds (~120lb, 65lb golden retriever), and I currently have a 45lb mutt. For walks, I am happy to tailor the pace and terrain to your dog’s interests. I also love a good game of fetch or tug if your dog prefers those activities to walking! I know dogs can find the summer months particularly taxing given their fur coats, and I am attentive to water break and rest needs. At the end of my last dog's life he had a lot of medical needs, and because of this I am patient and familiar with administering medication on a schedule. I am also comfortable and experienced in working with reactive and/or fearful dogs. I am always really happy to do whatever works best for your dog, whether that be walking on less trafficked routes or in specific places only. More than anything, I want to give your dog something to look forward to in his/her day!
Reviews
Corinne was wonderful! She replied back to my last minute request within minutes. She was dependable and communicative. I will not to hesitate to rebook!
Corinne was amazing. Incredibly responsive and detailed with all her communication, and of course was great with all the pets. Went above and beyond when there were a few hiccups along the way. Will absolutely be my first call next time I need someone for the pets!
Corinne is wonderful. She is very thorough, asking for specifics about your pet before hand and then updates you on the walk details after the fact.
Excellent care with my senior dog! Corrine was very intuitive and sensitive to his needs!

Safety, trust & environment
I defer to and will follow whatever rules you have for your dog in your home. I do not take dogs to dog parks and I do not introduce them to other dogs unless you specify otherwise. I prefer a meet and greet before any dog sitting/walking so that we can make a plan together and talk about rules or tips for environments in which I would be spending time with your dog.
Information Corinne N. would like to know about your pet
Anything you can provide! I want to know how your dog is with people and with kids, as well as how your dog is with other dogs. I want to know if there are any behavioral or allergy concerns that I should know about. I want to know your dog’s favorite snackies and places to walk, as well as what they are and are not allowed to do in the home. I’d like to know about any training words, specifically, that you use. Really, as much as you can give me is great! I want your dog to have the most positive experience possible.
A typical day
I want to know what activities your dog likes to do! I’ve walked all over and am happy to do roads or trails, depending on your dogs preference. I am also happy to do stimulation games in the home (especially when it’s cold!). My dog loves to play tug and fetch, so I have done a lot of those games as well and would be happy to do them with your pup.

I work full time from home and am pretty flexible during the week days to take a walk break or work from different environments. I am also available weekends with advance notice.
