Iris is exceptional at communication, sent me lots of updates when I was away & watched my dog-reactive foster pup which was not an easy task! She took the time to get to know each dog especially the ins and outs of the foster's reactivity and training style. She gave the dogs lots of enrichment while i was away too. Wouldn't hesitate to book with her again! Iris exceeded my expectations and made me feel my pets were safe. When I returned the dogs were calm and house was super clean! Thank you Iris!

Iris provided dog walking services and was communicative, punctual, and so very loving toward our dog. I would definitely recommend her and I’m glad she’s in our neighborhood for any future needs.

Iris took the time to understand and bond with our dog, Ruby. Appreciated the consistent updates showing that our dog and house were well cared for while we were away. Would love to have Iris back again!

Iris did a great job taking care of our dog and cat while we were away for a few days. She did a drop in visit in the morning and came back in the afternoon to walk the dog. She took great care of our fur babies. We will definitely have her back again.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is not currently available to host, but I am able to accommodate your dog or cat in your own home. I understand it is their home and their territory and am able and willing to be patient with your dog or cat until they trust me.

Information Iris R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if you dog has special needs, health issues, or separation anxiety, if they enjoy meeting other dogs, and if they pull on a leash. For cats, it is helpful for me to know their general temperament and communication style, and how they like to be handled and treated.

A typical day

I love taking long walks with dogs and seeing where they take me. I like going to big parks and letting them run around and having them meet new dogs, if they enjoy it.
