Looking for a walking buddy🐾
Pet care experience
I volunteered at my local SPCA as a dog walker with experience from puppies to senior dogs. I have raised my own puppy and can help with potty and crate training! I am a marine mammal trainer who’s passionate about animal care and teaching new behaviors. I enjoy long walks, taking your pup to the dog park or playing fetch at the beach.
Reviews
Dena you are amazing and so kind! You are a total sweetheart and it’s obvious how much you love dogs. Thank you so much for all of your help and kindness. Boozy and I will be booking you again soon!!
Dena was wonderful! Great communication and service!
Dena is amazing! You can tell right away that she is great with dogs, and knows how to engage with them. She took great care of our pup and we will absolutely have her back to watch him again!
Dena is professional, an excellent communicator. She arrived on time and is very cheerful. Very good with our Pup. He immediately began playing with her. We definitely look forward to scheduling more visits with her. Highly recommend.

Safety, trust & environment
I care for my pets by letting my pup roam when I’m home. We have healthy snacks throughout the day (blueberries and peanut butter are his favorite) and two meals a day. He is also crate trained, during the puppy stages he would sleep in the crate to get more comfortable with his new environment. If you need help with crate or potty training I have experience with puppies as young as 5 weeks! I also don’t mind taking it nice and easy with senior doggies! One of the pits I dog sit is 12 years old and I help him up the stairs! We go on long walks multiple times a day and I always incorporate teaching a new behavior to stimulate their minds. Let me know if you need help with training we can work on it together! The key is patience and positive reinforcement!
Information Dena T. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I can account for. I can accommodate whether it’s teaching your pup how to potty in the right spot or administering medication!
A typical day
I love to stimulate your dogs physically and mentally. We’ll play your pups favorite games, explore new walking paths and dog parks, and maybe learn some new behaviors!
