Neighborhood Walks+Trail Adventure!
About Me Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I lost my beloved dog a year ago, and while I’m not ready to bring another dog into my family yet, I deeply miss having a four-legged companion beside me on my walks and hikes. I already spend a lot of time outside walking and hiking around the Flathead Valley — so I’d love to bring your dog along. I’m a mom, longtime dog owner and animal lover, and I understand that every dog is different. Some dogs need a relaxed sniff-around-the-neighborhood walk. Others need to MOVE. I’m happy doing both. My goal isn’t simply to get your dog outside long enough to check a box. I want them to come home happy, exercised and ready for a very good nap. 🐾 30-Minute Neighborhood Walk — $20 Perfect for a midday break, potty time, fresh air and exercise. We’ll spend the appointment walking in your neighborhood or another appropriate area close to home, with plenty of time to sniff, explore and stretch those legs. I’ll send you an update and photos so you know exactly how your dog did. 🥾 60-Minute Adventure Walk — $38 For dogs who need more than a trip around the block. Depending on your location, your dog’s temperament and fitness, weather and trail conditions, our hour may include a neighborhood power walk or transportation to a nearby dog-friendly trail for a mini hiking adventure. If you live close to places like Lone Pine or another suitable trail, I’m happy to spend part of our hour getting your dog somewhere genuinely fun to explore. Transportation during an Adventure Walk is included within the booked 60 minutes when we agree on a nearby destination in advance. This is especially great for active dogs who need real physical and mental stimulation. My Service Area I intentionally keep my service area relatively small so I’m spending my time with your dog rather than driving all over the valley. If you’re roughly within a 15-minute drive of me, you’re probably within my regular service area. What You Can Expect Your dog’s safety comes first. Before our first walk, I want to know about your dog’s personality, leash behavior, recall, triggers, medical needs, favorite things and anything else that helps me understand them. For trail adventures, I’ll also make sure we’re a good match before heading out together. And yes — expect pictures. ❤️ I know what it’s like to love a dog like a member of your family. When your dog is with me, I’ll treat them that way.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. For dog walks, I’ll learn about your dog’s leash behavior, temperament, triggers, energy level and any medical or behavioral needs before we head out. For longer Adventure Walks, we can discuss whether your dog is a good fit for a nearby dog-friendly trail and agree on the outing beforehand. I’ll always keep dogs securely leashed unless we have specifically discussed otherwise. For cats and other in-home visits, I carefully follow your feeding, medication, litter and household instructions and make sure doors and windows are secure before I leave. I understand that some pets want lots of attention while others need space and patience, so I let each animal set the pace. Whether I’m taking your dog for a neighborhood walk, heading out for a trail adventure, or spending time with your cat at home, I’ll treat your pet like I would my own and send you photos and updates so you know exactly how they’re doing.

Schedule
I have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walks, longer adventure walks, and cat drop-in visits throughout the week. I’m already an active walker and hiker, so getting outside with dogs fits naturally into my routine. I intentionally keep my service area fairly small so I can spend more time caring for your pets and less time driving. I’m available for both regular weekly clients and occasional care when you’re traveling or simply need an extra hand.
