Your Pet’s New Best Friend

Hi, pet owners!! I’m a reliable and experienced dog walker and pet sitter serving Rancho Bernardo and surrounding areas, including Escondido and Poway. I also bring over 14 years of hands on experience as a veterinary assistant, working with animals of all ages and temperaments. I’m comfortable caring for everything from energetic puppies to senior pets with special needs. My background includes monitoring vital signs, administering medications, assisting with animal rehabilitation, feeding, and maintaining proper care and organization in a clinical setting. This experience allows me to provide attentive, knowledgeable care while keeping your pet’s health and safety a top priority. Whether you need daily walks, drop in visits or pet sitting while you’re away, you can count on me to treat your pets like family. I’d love to keep your furry friends happy, healthy, and well cared for!

Had John walk Cooper twice. Loved that he sent pictures during the walks too, gave us real peace of mind knowing Cooper was in good hands. John was easy to communicate with, would definitely book again!
