Safety, trust & environment

Your babies are my babies! For safety, I keep all dog walking clients on leash, and we'll also steer clear of other pups while out. If your baby has higher energy we'll run and play to get the zooms out. You can expect great communication from me, and you can call or message me at anytime too.

Information Koemi V. would like to know about your pet

Do let me know if your fur baby/babies have any special needs so I can be sure to take the best care! Anxious, nervous, sensitive stomachs, muzzles, non-dog/cat friendly, slow movers, etc. - I love them all!

A typical day

We'll smell all the smells on our walks, get all the butt scratches, cuddles, and play time! Depending on your pets temperament, energy level, and needs, I'll make sure to stimulate them both physically and mentally, showing all of the love.

Love bully breeds and anxious pups!

Pet care experience

I grew up with all sorts of pets - dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters, reptiles, fish etc and I also grew up horseback riding. I'm an experienced dog foster mom with a local bully breed rescue called Peace for Pits Inc. I've fostered dogs and puppies with the rescue, including my own two Pitbull / Staffie mixes, Izzy and Beans. I’ve done over 3 years of private dog training. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, dogs with medical conditions, nervous/anxious dogs, dog-aggressive dogs, and the cool cucumbers. I also cat sit, and plant sit. I love animals and will treat your babies with all of the love and respect their personalities and boundaries need. I follow all directions.

Seriously THE BEST sitter! Cannot recommend Koemi enough. She is thorough, kind and caring and always goes the extra mile. Incredibly communicative, willing and able to administer medication, prompt, trustworthy, and proactive. You won’t find a better caretaker. Thank you, Koemi!

Second time booking Koemi. She was absolutely wonderful. I have no worries of our dog being left home alone when she’s looking after him. He absolutely adores his time with her.
