Law Enforcement To Leash In Hand🐾

Hello! I come from a law-enforcement background and am now transitioning into my true passion: caring for dogs. My goal is to make this my full-time career, and I bring reliability, responsiveness, and a high level of awareness to every walk and visit. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities, and I take pride in making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

Malia is the best ! She is extremely reliable which is a rare find these days ! She is highly trustworthy and always always always puts the dogs first! She genuinely loves the dogs that she cares for as if they are her own she provides personalized service, knowing the temperament of each dog that she cares for and walks. She sends pictures and text if there are any updates, questions or concerns. She is very thorough and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable dog walker.

Malia pet sat for my dog Dakota and took such amazing care of her! She went above and beyond making sure that Dakota was happy, playing with her, giving her ample exercise and including her in fun outings! Not only did Malia perfectly complete care instructions but Dakota, who usually has separation anxiety, seemed so happy and content in the regular updates that she provided. Would trust her with my baby again in a heartbeat such a kind hearted person!!

I’m able to accommodate weekday and weekend requests, and I’m happy to build my schedule around your routine. As I work toward making this my full-time career, I prioritize clear and transparent communication about my availability so you always know exactly what to expect.

Pets

A typical day

I'm happy to match your dog's personality and energy level. If your dog prefers to cuddle on the couch, I'm more than happy to relax and enjoy some quiet time together. If your dog loves playing at the park, we can head out for some fun and exercise. We can mix it up and make sure they have a fun, comfortable, and enjoyable time

Please share anything you think I should know about your pet before the booking. I also like to schedule a meet-and-greet beforehand so we can get to know each other, your pet can become comfortable with me, and we can go over their routine and any special care instructions. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities, and I want to make sure I provide the best possible care. Please let me know about their feeding schedule, medications, allergies, exercise routine, favorite toys or activities, potty routine, sleeping arrangements, commands they know, behavioral quirks, fears or triggers, and any other special instructions. The more details you provide, the better I can make your pet feel safe, happy, and at home while you're away.
