Pro dog BIKER

Pet care experience

As an accessibility advocate, I use my bicycle as a tool for freedom and extend an exclusive offer to your high-energy furry friend. I ONLY do bike ‘walks’ with your dog. If you are looking for someone that can keep pace with any breed, continue reading for insight to my process: 1. We will first meet and greet at Morley Field Dog Park in Balboa Park. It is ideal that your dog is comfortable with my dog, Moose, so a mutual meeting space with plenty of room for running and riding is foundational. 2. If the dogs get along, we will schedule as many 60-minute training sessions as needed. It took Moose 1x 60-minute session to teach him how to run next to me on leash while I ride a bike in the street. The quicker your dog learns, the cheaper it is for you! So please provide their favorite training treats. If the dogs do not get along, that is okay; just expect the training time to take longer without Moose. 3. Once your dog understands bike etiquette, we can schedule either 30 or 60 minute bike walks, which are cheaper than training sessions. These can be with or without Moose. 4. The ultimate goal would be for me to teach you to ride with your dog if you are interested.

I was in town to help a family member move and Josie was very helpful in entertaining my dog during the moving day. She responded promptly, and was flexible with my timeframes.

Josie did a great job watching over Whiskey while I was travelling for work. It seems like he had plenty of playmates to keep him company and I appreciated the photo update each day. Josie was very nice and responsive! Thank you again!

Safety, trust & environment

While walking your best friend, I love to stop and smell the flowers, tree stumps and fire hydrants along the way. I view this time as your furry friend’s opportunity to explore while I ensure their safety. In home and boarding services: Your pet is guaranteed to have a ‘say’ in how they prefer to sleep, when to go on walks, and where their favorite scratch spot is. I understand each animal is unique and do my best to make them feel comfortable in any setting. Additionally, I enjoy lathering adorable wet faces during bath time and can leave a clean friendly smile to come home to.

Information Josie F. would like to know about your pet

Please provide their favorite training treats to keep their gut health optimal and motivation high. The younger the dog, the more trainable they are. Also, if they are dog friendly, Moose is a great teacher and running buddy!

A typical day

Riding bikes is my specialty, especially on trails where there are many things to sniff and low risk of traffic accidents. I love the trails along Florida Canyon in Balboa Park!

As a full-time athlete advocating for mountain biking to be a Paralympic sport, I prioritize exercise and will extend what I know to your pet! The way I see it, we are all mammals designed for movement. Without it, we become moody and our body deteriorates.
