Real life dog whisperer

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Hope, and I've been a dog owner since I was five, and since then people have called me a dog whisperer because of my loving and unique connection with their pets. I've never met a dog I didn't like, or a dog that didn't like me. I have been pet sitting for people in my neighborhood and beyond since I was eight. I have experience with shy dogs and cats, as well as energetic animals. I’ve also owned a senior dog in the past so I have experience administering medication and taking care of your older pups. I will be more flexible hours-wise on certain days, so if you have a specific need, feel free to contact me- I will always try to fit you in my schedule! My middle of the day walks & drop-ins tend to fill up fast, so I take first come first serve. *I HAVE SELECT MIDDLE-OF-THE-DAY TIME SLOTS OPEN NOW FOR RECURRING BOOKINGS* I am willing to take your dogs on walks or runs or just play with them in your yard. I also have experience with farm animals (chickens, goats, horses, ponies, fish, etc) so please don’t hesitate to ask if you need farm care!

We had a fantastic experience with Hope watching our two cats while we were away! She went above and beyond to keep our space clean and our kitties entertained. I highly recommend Hope!

Hope did an amazing job taking care of our cat and senior dog. She was so sweet and reliable. She made sure our dog got her medicine, kept her company, and always sent pictures and an update on how they were doing. I would love to have the opportunity to work with Hope again in the future! Highly recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

I always keep dogs on-leash except in fully fenced yard situations and always cross the road to avoid other dogs we may encounter on walks.

Information Hope R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know your dog's personality, or if there are any medical conditions I should be aware of. It's always good to know how your dog interacts with other dogs they may encounter on an outing, and if they are friendly with strangers.

A typical day

I can walk your dog in your neighborhood, or on local trails. I am willing to go on runs with them if they have extra energy. Tug-of-war and fetch are always fun, whether it's in your backyard or at nearby parks. My own dog, Ollie, is available to join walks or playtime upon request if your dog needs more social interaction or friend time.
