A walk a day keeps the vet away

Pet care experience

Hello Central Coast fur parents. I am new to the world of dog walking from an app, but I have been around animals my whole life. I believe a walk should be both mentally and physically stimulating. ** I can also care for reptiles, birds, fish, and other small domestics ** I have a passion for teaching and watching a dogs knowledge grow. I like to offer basic manner skills during walks to allow easier handling, safety, and an exciting new environment. I do my best to guide your dog away from highly weeded areas. This year is already horrible for foxtails. After every walk, I make it a habit to check for any foxtails or other debri in your dogs coat and ears as I would with my own dogs. At home, I have two amazing rescue dogs. Trooper, who is a 5 year old brittany spaniel basset hound mix. He is such a ham. Goofy, fun loving personality. I have had him for close to 3 years. Pantera, who is my newest rescue and project. Rough start for a young dog but is jumping life hurdles daily. She is a year and a half belgian malinois. I am comfortable and have experience around dogs of all sizes, energy levels and age. I am always happy to be outdoors with our furry friends. Our favorite walks consist of a good hike with new sights and smells. All age groups welcome. All mobility levels welcome.

Jodi's care for my pets was nothing short of extraordinary. She didn't just fulfill her duties; she embraced them with an unmatched level of devotion and compassion. It was evident that she approached her role not as a task, but as a heartfelt responsibility. From feeding and grooming to playtime and affection, she poured her heart into ensuring my pets felt loved and cherished. Her attention to detail and genuine connection with them eased any worries I had about leaving them in her care. Jodi's unwavering commitment to treating them as if they were her own made all the difference, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking exceptional pet care.

I have known Jodi for over a decade. In that time she has been an amazing pet sitter & friend. Her love of the 4 legged fur babies is amazing. She has been trusted with the care of my heart and soul pups & Kitty on MANY occasions. ( I do not trust many with my 4 leggers) She is my go to girl whenever I need someone to care for them. I highly recommend her and trust her immensly.

She cares for my pets and family pets like they were her own. My mom’s dog is always excited to see her when she comes over. It was immediately apparent that she has a real love for animals. She is reliable and trustworthy. Quick to respond to any questions I had.

Safety, trust & environment

I know your dog may act differently while they are in their own homes. I am calm and patient, allowing your dog to become comfortable with me. I can safely administer medications including ear cleanings. I am well versed with dog handling. I can offer brushing and coat management while in my care.

Information Jodi M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special requirements and needs. Medication, mobility concerns, food allergies, feeding schedules, etc. Also is your dog sensitive to any areas while being pet? Ears...face... I want to ensure your dog is as comfortable as possible. Favorite toys? Crate trained?

A typical day

Let's go on an adventure! Let's explore the neighborhood or a good trail. During the walk we will work on sitting at corners before crossing and leaving items that may be harmful for us. Keeping your dog safe and happy is my priority. Walks should mentally stimulate your dog just as much as physically.
