Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal Enthusiast Through & Through
I've been caring for animals since I was 10, starting with my first dog, Max. Since then, I’ve loved and looked after dogs of all ages and sizes, plus cats, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, geckos, and turtles. Animals have always been a big part of my world! Your pet’s wellbeing matters just as much to me as it does to you. I don’t walk pets in extreme heat, heavy rain, or freezing temps that could hurt their paws or health. Every pet is different—what’s too hot for a Great Pyrenees might be perfect for a Chihuahua—so I’ll happily adjust to fit your pet’s needs. Safety comes first, even if it means rescheduling. At home, I have a sweet senior black lab named Pig and a goofy mini sheepadoodle puppy named Bernie Biscuit. I’ve trained my own pups from scratch and have experience walking all shapes and sizes of dogs—from tiny troopers to extra large cuddle bugs. I treat every animal like my own and would love the chance to care for yours!

Safety, trust & environment
As stated above - Your pet’s wellbeing matters just as much to me as it does to you. I don’t walk pets in extreme heat, heavy rain, or freezing temps that could hurt their paws or health. Every pet is different—what’s too hot for a Great Pyrenees might be perfect for a Chihuahua—so I’ll happily adjust to fit your pet’s needs. Safety comes first, even if it means rescheduling. I can crate your best friends, feed them, give them food and water, or just hang out and shower them in love, attention, and affection. While walking your pup I will happily ensure they safely get from point A to point B, while having fun and making sure they are living their best life! I am a pro at fetch, tug-of-war, and running around for those cute doggo play bows. Nap time? No problem. I can be quiet and calm, too.
Ratings and reviews
We love Dot!
Dot I. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
My first time using Rover was beyond comforting, and I attribute that to Dot. So glad to get all the pics and detailed messages.
Dot has always been amazing with my pups!
Amazing! Philip and Jojo absolutely adore her
Dot is amazing! My dog is a little bitey and she loves to go on walks and play with Dot and I'm just very pleased with the care she puts into taking care of my doggo. Definitely will book again!

Schedule
I am a stay at home mom with a huge love for animals and lots of extra time on my hands. This does mean I am unavailable during certain times due to my kids’ school and/or extracurricular activities. However, I’m very flexible and can usually work things out!
