I walk Bodhi before I leave for work at 7 and when I get home at 4. I have a dog walker come M-H at 12:00 to take Bodhi on a 30 minute walk. If you'd like your dog to also be walked, let me know and I'll see if they're open to walking your pup too. Your dog will need to either come with crate or be ok to roam free in a room or the apartment.

Safety, trust & environment

I don't have children so dogs are the beings that I raise and care for. I have a secured, fenced in, large yard, and a puppy for your dog to play and walk with. Bodhi has lots of toys to share, my pantry is stocked with treats and my house is full of love. Even with a yard, I know the importance of leashed walks so exercise is a priority in my home.

Information Lisa V. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, medications that need to be administered or commands/skills they are working on. I do not have experience administering injectable medication but I'm willing to learn and do it. I'm happy to watch any dog that is not aggressive.

A typical day

Bellevue is a great town for dogs! The neighborhood is walkable. There is a dog park in town with trails, a water pool and agility course. There are also trails in the woods behind the Bellevue pool that I frequently have taken my dogs to. Lastly, I have a fenced in yard, a large front porch, and lots of toys in the apartment. Your pup will be very happy here!

Pet care experience

Care and responsibility for animals were instilled in me from a very young age. I've taken care of dogs since having a Cocker Spaniel when I was 6 years old. As an adult, I have adopted 4 dogs - Cierno (Pitbull), Pumpkin (Staffie mix), Sweet Pea (Boxer - deaf), and Bodhi (newest Staffie mix). I fostered 11 dogs, over the course of 4 years, through Furkid Rescue. I was also a volunteer for Hello Bully for 3 years. Pumpkin served as a PitBull Ambassador, and I cared for and exercised the Pits at their halfway house. All of the dogs in my care have been given everything they need to be healthy and happy pups. I have extensive experience with bully breeds, elderly and deaf dogs. I recently lost my last 2 dogs - Pumpkin (15 years old) and Sweet Pea (12 years old) and added the love of a new puppy, Bodhi, in May 2023. Bodhi would LOVE to have a pup to run around the fenced yard, wrestle and play with. Your dog will be well cared for in my home while you are away!

Lisa was great, we felt very comfortable that our pitbull Nova was in her care. We received updates and videos of Nova running around at the dog park enjoying herself. We'll definitely book with Lisa again.

Lisa was the perfect person to watch my dog. She ensured she was well taken care of and I felt as if she was in a home full of puppy love! If you are looking for someone to watch your pet, Lisa is your girl!!!
