Pet care experience
My best skill is attention to detail and observation. This let's me get to know your dog as if they were my own and give every dog I encounter a personal experience with comminication they can understand. I have Enrichment Doggie Daycare/boarding experience, were I learned how to work with dogs professionally and it helped me learn to play and watch successfully a group of 50 dogs ranging from the mighty Great Dane, to the smallest shih tzu. I also 1 year of grooming experience that has giving me a keen eye to noticing issues that need to be brought to the owner's attention, such as skin irritation or burrs stuck in the coat. My goals are to own and operate my own animal care business and to pursue continued education so that I can provide my clients and their fur-babies with the best care.
Reviews
Haley is amazing. She personalized the visit for my dog who just had surgery, and made sure he got the time and attention he deserved. She communicated great during the booking process and during her visits- her cards were detailed and thorough. It's clear that she knows what she is doing and really cares!
I cannot say enough good things about Haley! My pup was quite shy when I first rescued him, and she was so patient with him (and now they’re best buds). She has incredible attention to detail, and always lets me know when she notices something off about my dog, i.e. stool consistency or feeling tired. She is professional, responsive, and an excellent groomer. She also takes the cutest photos of my dog and gives me lovely updates of each walk. Our lives are so much sweeter with Haley’s care!

Safety, trust & environment
When visiting your pet at your home I ensure their needs are met based on the services agreed upon while also ensuring that your home is as clean as when I came in.
Information Haley D. would like to know about your pet
-History: what the dog's life as been like up to this point; Lifestyle and routine, rescued or bred, etc. - Any health concerns or limitations -Age - Personality and Breed (best guess is OK.) -Any Negative Behaviors (ex. Door rushing, head sensitivity, dog aggressive, etc.) -Command Preferences
A typical day
Any activities a dog will have with me will be based on each individual dog's requirement, wether that be multiple walks per day, 15 to 30 minute play sessions, or even just someone to hangout with all day. I also try to follow any routine a Dog Parent typically has with their Fur Baby as I believe consistency leads to a happier, more confident dog.
