The Happy-Dog Walker

Hello/hola, my name’s Magali and I can’t wait to meet your pet! I know how important your pups (and cats) are to you, which is why I prioritize their happiness and safety over all. Play/exercise/cuddles/food/rest are all super important for a happy dog, and I’ll make sure they get all those things. I can also give ‘em a bath if you’d like, or help teach basic commands. I’m looking forward to walking your pet, and I’m very happy to have them come stay with me while you’re at work or on vacation. If you’d like me to drop by to give your dog medicine, I have experience taking care of senior animals. I’M FLEXIBLE Whatever service you require, I’ll always make sure to match your pet's routine, whether it’s potty breaks, any special commands you use, if they have a special treat or toy, etc.

Barkley stayed for a full week, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. I received constant updates and so many great pictures throughout the stay of Barkley having fun with Kiwi. It was obvious Barkley was happy, comfortable, and being treated like family. What really stood out was the flexibility and kindness of Magali when my travel plans changed due to a long airline delay. Magali was incredibly accommodating and allowed an extra night stay without hesitation, which relieved a huge amount of stress. Reliable, communicative, caring, and genuinely great with dogs. I would absolutely book again with Magali and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pet!

Magali was very easy to communicate and coordinate with! Bear seemed to be having a good time every time we checked in during his staycation!

Can’t thank Magali enough for watching Maya. Our first time using in Houston and she made us very at ease. Flexible, accommodating and cared about our pup. Thank you!

Magali and Rick were the absolute best!! Pippa was so well taken care of and she seemed liked she didn’t want to even leave when we picked her up (sad for us, but made us happy that she was safe and well cared for). We got pictures every day with updates on how Pippa was doing. I could not recommend them enough. We even had a snafu with our return trip home and they graciously were able to extend Pippa’s stay on a moments notice. We so appreciated the flexibility!! Thank you so much again ♥️

SHARE THE LOVE I’ll keep you updated with photos of your pet’s getaway with me. SAFE DAYCARE/BOARDING I live in a spacious 2 bedroom apartment with plenty of nearby parks and tree-lined streets. In my home, I have a friendly (spayed) female rescue dog. If your pet has any issues with other dogs, just let me know and we’ll figure it out.

Pets

A typical day

A DAY WITH YOUR DOG Let’s get to sniffing! After we chat, I’ll customize our walk to visit (or avoid) certain situations you might mention. If they need a brisk walk, let’s do it! If they wanna check out all the smells and take their time, that’s great too. You know your pet, and hopefully soon - I will also. Play/exercise/cuddles/food/rest are all super important for a happy dog, and I’ll make sure they get all those things. I can also give ‘em a bath if you’d like.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

If your pup has special needs or considerations, let’s figure out how to best address them. We’ll make it work. I love all breeds, so that shouldn’t be a problem. I will only need to know how your pet gets along with other pets, if that’s an issue. Let’s chat!
