I walk several miles a day. I’m happy to take your dog on walks to get all of their energy out and can keep them company while they play with all of the toys that I have. I offer enrichment activities that I have from when my sweet boy was on crate rest. Your dog will certainly never be bored here!

Information Genevieve R. would like to know about your pet

What makes your pet feel safe? How do they communicate their needs to you? Are they house trained? Are they crate trained? Are they sensitive to any smells, sounds or light? Do they like to be woken up from their nap to go outside?

A typical day

Right after waking up I’ll grab a cup of coffee and take your pet for a walk around the block. Afterwards we’ll have breakfast, a play session, belly rubs and I’ll set them up with engagement games and near the window to people watch. On my 15 minute break I’ll take your pup for another walk or get some zoomies out at the park. Two hours later on my lunch we can go for an hour walk again (depending on their energy needs) or we can play with toys, get some sun or the balcony or they can peacefully nap. Two hours later on my second break I go for a walk again and then when my work day ends at 5 I give them dinner, give the food a little time to settle before going on the last walk of the night. I have direct access to a yard so I can let them out whenever they need to use the restroom. This is important for dogs taking meds that make them thirsty and increase their need for the restroom.

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Genevieve and I’d love to meet your dog! I only take care of one doggo at a time and work remotely from home so they will be safe and well taken care of. I’m able to do pick-up/drop-off on a case-by-case basis but absolutely happy to! Your dog will enjoy: 🐾 Multiple daily walks for exercise and sniffing adventures 🐾 A sunny patio for lounging and fresh air breaks 🐾 Plenty of cuddles, playtime, and individualized attention 🐾 Regular updates & photos so you can see how they’re doing I treat every dog like they’re my own—keeping their routines, preferences, and comfort in mind. You’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re cared for like family!
