Information Doreen L. would like to know about your pet

Before every visit I learn your pet's medical needs, commands they know, what helps them feel secure, reactions to strangers/other dogs, level of exercise they tolerate, food restrictions, FAVORITE things to do!

A typical day

I enjoy greeting my clients with respect and taking a moment to read their energy. I like to give time to settle in and relax for a few minutes before moving into their favorite activities—whether that’s walking, playing ball, or other games, often guided by helpful insights from their family. After our walk or playtime, I make sure we have time to unwind, offer treats, and ensure they’re comfortable and everything is okay.

I highly recommend Doreen as a dog walker. She is responsible, reliable, and trustworthy and has a natural ability to connect with animals. She exudes positive energy and seems to really understands the importance of providing both exercise and attentive, loving care. It’s obvious that Doreen genuinely loves dogs and enjoys staying active, making her an excellent fit for dog walking. She is patient, dependable, and always prioritizes the safety and well-being of the pets in her care. I feel very comfortable knowing that my dogs are in caring and capable hands with Doreen.

I have known Doreen for many years and can confidently recommend her as a responsible, trustworthy, and caring pet caregiver. She genuinely loves animals and has always shown patience, kindness, and attention to their needs. Doreen is dependable, organized, and treats every pet as if it were her own. Any pet owner would be fortunate to have Doreen caring for their beloved companion.
