Pet care experience
East Rocker Pup Walker
Walkies and fun for your pup! Caring for your pet as if they were my own. I'm an arts n' crafty outdoorsy gal who's been a lifelong caregiver for pets young and old, big and smol alike. Will go the extra million miles for your unique fur baby and accommodate their quirks and needs to ensure a safe and enjoyable walk. 15+ years of experience pet sitting, dog walking, fetch, and playing, feeding and meds, plus lots of scritches - for birds, reptiles, including sneks, dogs, cats, rats, and other cute critters (except bunnies whom I'm super allergic to). Currently providing drop-in visits and dog walking. Much patience and compassion for special needs, fearful/anxious dogs, and experience with high-energy ones.

Safety, trust & environment
As an East Rocker, very familiar with the neighborhood and parks for your dog to have the best sniffari! For drop-in visits at client's home, I follow instructions to a 'T', so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet and home are safe and respected. Expect lots of pet photos and updates from me. Timeliness, communication, and kindness are key for me, clients, and their pets.
Ratings and reviews
Frances has now taken care of my critters several times, remains great every time! Very responsive and attentive, with useful updates. Thanks again Frances!
Frances was terrific! She went above and beyond to take care of my critters: 4 geckos and 6 frogs. Many people are either fearful of reptiles and amphibians or otherwise don't care much for them....but Frances dutifully followed the instructions I provided, gave me detailed updates with photos and videos, and adjusted based upon such requests I had. She's a pleasure, and I look forward to working with her again!
Amazing! Really communicative and my dog loves her.
So appreciative of Frances. Great communication. Will definitely request again.
There aren't enough stars or words to say how amazing of a petsitter and human Frances is. I am lucky enough to have her as my next door neighbor, and she takes incredible care of my baby girl Stormy (a super mutt, or an everything beagle as I like to say😂). Frances is always on time, takes and sends a ton of pictures, keeps me updated, is patient with my pup when she's picky about eating, gives tons of love and cuddles, and takes Stormy out on long walks, or sniffy tours, as she calls them. Stormy obviously absolutely adores Frances. Frances is dependable, reliable, kind, thoughtful and incredibly trustworthy. 100/10 recommend
Frances is my go-to helper when I need an extra hand with my pupper, Ace! Frances is an experienced expert dog walker and pet sitter. She’s attentive to all of our needs and quirks and does everything she can to make sure Ace is comfortable and having a good time. I use a special collar for our walks and Ace has a standard route all of which Frances takes head on with ease and Ace especially loves the secret treats Aunt Frances keeps with her. Frances also does a great job at learning your pup’s personality so she can easily navigate social situations. For example if your dog isn’t too friendly with others or is weary of strangers you can be assured that Frances has it handled. My partner’s pup is hesitant with new folks but Frances was undeterred and her energy made Piper feel super comfortable and ready to play. Whether you need a pet sitter, a dog walker, someone to help administer medicines or you just want your pup to have some play time Frances is the perfect person to call on.
