Let’s run that energy off bud!

Pet care experience

I have a 5 star rating on Wag and plentiful badges. Companionship and trust exercises every single day we experience nature together. Walking dogs is my form of meditation in order to keep me disciplined and at peace. ✌🏾 I start my day at 11am Monday through Friday. I prefer drop offs to be around this time. If you need to drop your furbabies off before 10am please schedule to do so the day before or contact me so that we can work something out. Sleep is important. I have foam mattresses for dogs that aren’t crate trained and then I have 2 huge crates for dogs of all sizes. My apartment has 2 dog parks and I’m right by lady bird lake so a different adventure every time. I generally start my day at 11am. My routine is centered around the pups. Morning walk 10-11am, second walk 3-4pm, third walk 8-9pm, and final walk 1-2am. Each set of pups I get is different so the schedule varies but will always be 4 walks a day. Typically on the weekends I have 5 to 6 pups. Given the high volume I like to keep pets separated. I have 4 areas and 2 rooms designated for pups so each has their own space. Never had any pups attack each other and walking them each individually is my priority however if some clearly get along I will walk them together for in efforts to be more efficient.

Information Dontay W. would like to know about your pet

If your dog is allergic to anything, specifically chicken or fish, please let me know. If they have high anxiety I do not mind as long as they have medication for it, otherwise it’s probably best to find another sitter. In my experience when there are multiple pups with anxiety, they are constantly triggered with the new pups in the new environment. I live on the third floor so if your pup has any leg issues let me know as well.

A typical day

Whenever a new pup enters the pack I make sure they sniff around and get each other’s scent’s for a while before allowing them to engage with each other. Last thing we want is extra bills. My complex has 2 dog parks and 2 sister properties within 5 minutes. There is a trail about a mile away with tons of shade and then there’s Ladybird Lake as well next to the Oracle.
