I have been a dog owner my entire life and am currently a pet parent to a lovable 55-pound goof named Othello (shepherd-hound mix, 6 years) and an energetic 30-pound Australian Cattle Dog mix named Cupid (8 months). I have also been responsible for caring for a Jack Russell Terrier. I'm the go-to dog watcher for my family and friends who have dogs! I am very comfortable handling dogs of any size on a fixed-leash, as my own dog is a strong 55 pounds and gives me no issue. I can easily provide longer walks for higher energy dogs upon request, as well as trips to the dog park if you and your dog are comfortable with it! I can also provide equally exciting and fulfilling activities for smaller dogs that need a different level of exercise. For drop-in visits, I can easily accommodate you and your dog's routine -- I want nothing more than to give your a dog a great experience and give you as an owner peace of mind. I know the anxiety of being away from your pet and being concerned that they are being taken care of -- I can help ease those feelings by doing a Meet & Greet before agreeing to any services so you can see how your dog and I get along. In addition, I'll send you as many photos as you would like of your dog while I am with them so you can have real-time updates on your dog's well-being. Lastly, I'm very comfortable communicating with an owner about how their dog is doing -- whether that be via phone call, text, e-mail, or photo, or even in-person. I love dogs and want nothing more than for both dog and owner to have a fantastic experience with me!
