My time is extremely flexible and my personal schedule can be made around your pet's needs. I’m currently in a place of transition after a long spiritual awakening, tons of self-healing, and recent grieving after losses in my family.

Information Galen M. would like to know about your pet

I've never met a dog that I don't vibe with, but some things that are important for me to know ahead of time are whether or not they get along with other dogs, if they're taking any medication that I need to administer, or any general special needs your dog has. I want to be able to best support them.

A typical day

I'm every dog's best friend! We'd go to a nearby park, sniff all the fun spots in your neighborhood, burn off any pent up energy, play with aaalll the toys, and be goofy together. Oh - and TONS of pets and scratches - I know all the good spots!!

Pet care experience

I'm a natural empath and caretaker with extensive experience in animal care. Growing up, my family always had multiple dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, chickens, and more! My entire life I've always been around animals and taking care of them - I'm frequently called an animal whisperer. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets since a young age. When I was a senior in High School, I shadowed my neighborhood vet. I've worked professionally for a dog walking company, at a doggy-daycare, with a dog physical therapist, as an animal caretaker at an animal sanctuary, and I've lived on a ranch in Mexico where I cared for animals. I'm committed to providing the highest level of care for your beloved companions! I am very experienced with animals, whether it be sitting, walking, caretaking, puppies, senior care, administering medication, etc. I had two 18-year-old kitties who both passed recently, so I’m very adept with cat care too!

Galen helped us in a pinch! She took really great care of our fur babies and sent pictures during her visits. Highly recommend
