No One Will Love Your Pet More

Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs since I was in high school. Friends, family and neighbors call on me as a reliable and competent companion for their pet when they are away. I not only care for them, but train them to do new things, and have fun with them at the same time.

Fred and Kim were amazing. They took such great care of Jeronimo. I really appreciated all of the photos and updates they sent me. He seemed really happy with them. I will definitely be looking to them to book again.

These prices are for one dog. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.

Availability

I work part time, so have flexibility to walk, feed, bathe and play with your dog at various times during the day and the week. Most weekends I am free all day. We love to hike with our dogs, but can also just walk around the neighborhood. It all depends upon your dog.
