Beach time and hikes with your pup!

Pet care experience

I am the founder of Turner and Pooch Pet Services, LLC. operating with a team of professional dog walkers and sitters. We are a bonded and insured company. Over the past year I was a surrogate mother and was in active on Rover, but worked solely for my company. I’m a true dog lover who grew up with two vets in my family. My miniature dachshund boats, hikes, likes to fish, sleep, drives and flies with me. I’m all about play time, treats, snuggles, and appreciating a dog’s lifestyle. I respect the rules of each dog and put safety first. Communication is key to dog owners. These pups are your family and I will be sure to contact each owner before and after each visit. I am able to board, occasionally sit, visit or walk your dog any day of the week. I live in a quiet community on a marsh with little to no traffic with a large field and plenty of space for dogs to run. The local dog park is 2 miles from my house and a favorite for just about every dog. Pups are my full time job. I start in the morning and end in the evening. If I have a pup staying with me we follow your house rules. Consistency is key! Following your dogs routine is very important, so whatever your pup is use to at home is what we will follow. I have a nice size yard, but it is not fenced in. I live in a beautiful water community with a large field across from my house to play fetch with dogs you have good recall. At times I will close the gates at the tennis courts and let the pups run around in there. I also frequent Taylor's Farm during the week when there are not many dogs.

Emily was FANTASTIC! The second time she pick up my dog he ran to her and greeted her with so much excitement. Her pup and son no doubt kept my dog company and entertained. She was great at communicating!

It was our first time leaving our puppy for a night and Emily was awesome! Penny loved her time there and Emily is very experienced.

Taking care of dogs is my full my time job. When boarding a dog at my house, their walking schedule gets added into my day. My clients are within 5 miles of my house so I am able to get home to the pups at any given time. I am usually home for day by 2-4pm.
