Safety, trust & environment

I provide a safe, structured, and comfortable environment for every dog. I have access to a securely fenced backyard where dogs can play and relax under supervision. I also have a friendly, well-socialized pup who enjoys meeting new dogs, while always respecting each dog’s comfort level and boundaries. During outings, I prioritize leash safety, awareness of surroundings, and proper handling at all times. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior, energy level, and needs to ensure a safe and positive experience.

Information David H. would like to know about your pet

I am happy to accommodate any special needs or requests with advance notice. I have worked with pups before that has need medication and extra attention and care.

A typical day

For higher energy dogs, I offer longer walks or outdoor adventures at local trails such as Theodore Roosevelt Island, Scott’s Run Nature Preserve, and the Four Mile Run Trail. These outings provide great exercise, new environments, and plenty of stimulation. At home, dogs enjoy supervised backyard time, play sessions, and light training reinforcement (basic commands and leash manners).
