Professional Dog Walker!

Pet care experience

I have loved animals and been around them my whole life. I have a German Shepard and a pitbull that both have been trained by me and we spend countless hours for walks and hikes! Former employee of VCA Shoreline as a veterinary assistant/technician in Shelton for 3 years where I cared for very sick animals in need. I am able to help animals with special needs and who are very young or old. I am comfortable handling cats or dogs who need any extra care other than walking, feeding, and providing a water source!

Safety, trust & environment

I care for my own pets by taking them for long walks when I get home from school giving them plenty of time to get their energy out by throwing a toy or ball in near by parks. We love exploring new places to hike together although now that my pitbull is now experiencing respiratory issues we have been slowing down for her safety.

Information Gillian W. would like to know about your pet

Safety is my number one goal for these pets and I am willing to help with any special instructions including care for older or younger pets. This includes teaching methods you prefer for obedience or tricks, medication administration, and any restrictions due to health issues. Any special leash instructions/behavior's please let me know I have worked with using gentle leaders, harnesses, and other sorts of collars for training.

A typical day

Milford has a wide variety of places to go for walks and I am able to transport dogs by my car and take them to different places such as Walnut beach, Eisenhower park, the downtown green, and many others where I take my own dog personally.
