Safety, trust & environment

I love to get my dog active by playing or going on walks or hikes if time allows! I will work with you and our schedules to provide your fur babies whatever they need!

Information Jackie S. would like to know about your pet

I would need to know if your dog had any behaviors such as: aggression towards dogs/animals, food aggression, toy possessive/aggression, reactivity, etc. I have worked with dogs with many different behaviors and personalities, I just need to be aware! I am also comfortable with dogs who need medication or have special medical needs, I will need to know what they are on and how you administer it.

A typical day

I love to get some outside if weather allows for walks around the neighborhood! If they love to cuddle or play with toys, I am the person for it. My goal is to make them as happy as they can be while you are away!

Pet care experience

I am a veterinary student at Virginia Tech. I am looking to engage with the community and provide pet care you know you can trust. I have had extensive experience in dog sitting/walking/drop ins, as well as boarding kennel and medical experience. I want to ensure your pet's happiness while you are away and provide the best care possible. I will work with any breeds, ages, etc. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or booking inquiries!
