Hey! Can’t wait to meet your pup :)
Pet care experience
Are you in need of a reliable, caring, and experienced dog walker to cater to your canine’s exercise and adventure needs? Look no further! I believe that your beloved canine companion deserves the very best care and I'm here to provide just that. I tailor each walk based on their preferences, energy levels, size and breed. From raising my own dog, working at multiple doggy daycares, pet sitting/ dog walking and from my position as a supervisor at a 5-star pet resort, I’ve encountered various situations where immediate action was needed to ensure the wellbeing of the pets in my care. Whether it’s a minor scrape or a more serious injury, knowing how to respond swiftly and effectively has made a significant difference. During these times I’ve been able to provide essential care. In addition, I have learned techniques to administer medications and reduce stress during the process. Over time, I have developed a deep understanding of canine behavior through my exposure to various dogs in group play settings. This knowledge allows me to anticipate and respond effectively to your dog’s behaviors, ensuring a positive and safe walking experience. I have also been trained to pick up on signs of stress, illness, or discomfort, allowing me to take appropriate action on walks. Throughout my career in pet care, I have had the privilege to work in various capacities and roles. Wearing multiple hats and being equipped with pet first aid skills has given me invaluable insight into high standard pet care.

About Elena K.

Safety, trust & environment
I am available for walks, playtimes, and in-home visits. During the walk I will be keeping water on me at all times for your pup, as well as monitoring their behavior to make sure they are feeling happy and healthy. As I am a dog mom myself I understand that it can be a bit stressful having your dog in someone else's care, so I will be texting you updates and photos during our outings. Your dog will have a great time with me! I offer walks - long or short, as well as playtimes and drop ins. I can do walks on trails and walks around your neighborhood, but I am open to requests. I would love to personalize the walk to your dog’s liking. My career goal is to become a professional dog trainer. So I would love to practice obedience training as I care for your canine companion.
Information Elena K. would like to know about your pet
Is there anything I should avoid while on walks with your dog? This may include things that cause your dog stress or make them want to take off. How is their behavior towards other dogs and people? Does your pet have any special needs that need to be accommodated while in my care? I want to make sure that their walk can be as enjoyable as possible :)
