Pet care experience

Walk, Run, Play, Repeat!

I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my day-to-day life. I also have experience caring for and walking friends’ dogs and am excited to expand that experience by helping more local dog owners! I’m active and love being outdoors, so I’m happy to provide anything from a relaxed walk to a more active walk or run for dogs who need extra exercise. I understand that every dog has a different personality, energy level, and routine, and I’ll make sure their time with me is safe, fun, and tailored to what they need. I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I’d want for my own!

Lucy was great! She took excellent care of our cats and dog while we were out of town. Very highly recommended!

Lucy did a wonderful job caring for my beloved cat for 12 days! She made sure he had fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and, most importantly, the love and attention my sensitive cat needs. She played with him and sent me lovely photos and daily updates that truly put my mind at ease. Thanks to Lucy, I enjoyed my time away knowing my precious cat was in loving hands. Highly recommend her!

Easy to work with and communicate with, the cats seemed love her and were taken care of as instructed , since one had a recent health issue and needed medications. Would recommend and I’ll be working with her again !

Lucy has always loved animals and even as a child treated our farm animals (cows, sheep, dogs, horses). She is attentive not only to their physical needs, but psychological too. She especially loves dogs, and goes the extra mile to make sure they are groomed and well taken care of.

I have availability on different mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends depending on the day. I’m happy to work with you to find times that fit both your schedule and your dog’s routine.

Safety, trust & environment

I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I will follow all instructions and routines provided, including feeding, walks, medications if needed, and any specific household rules. For walks and runs, I’ll always prioritize your dog’s safety by keeping them securely leashed, paying attention to their surroundings, and adjusting the pace and distance based on their age, energy level, and needs. I’ll also provide updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

A typical day

A typical day will depend on your pet’s personality, energy level, and normal routine! I love being active and outdoors, so I’m happy to take dogs on walks, longer adventures, or runs for pups who need a little extra exercise. I also enjoy playtime, fetch, exploring outside, or simply giving them plenty of attention and company. For lower-energy pets, I’m just as happy with a relaxed walk and some quality cuddle time. My goal is to make sure your pet has a fun, safe day and gets the activity and attention they need!

Before caring for your pet, I’d love to know a little about their personality, normal routine, energy level, and any special needs. Please let me know about any medical concerns, medications, allergies, behavioral tendencies, or triggers I should be aware of. For walks and runs, it’s especially helpful to know how they behave on a leash, around other dogs and people, and how much exercise they’re accustomed to. I want to make sure every visit is safe, comfortable, and enjoyable for your pet!
