Pet care experience

Evening & Weekend Pet Care!

A Lifetime of Dog Love & Specialized Care: I have loved dogs since childhood, and pet care is a true passion of mine. Over the years, I have babysat and walked dogs of all shapes and sizes for friends, as well as handled home drop-ins for cats. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and specific routine. Specialized Experience with Leash Reactivity: I am the proud owner of a 7-year-old Labrador/Cattle Dog mix who is leash-reactive. Because of this, I have firsthand, daily experience managing high-energy breeds and navigating challenging behaviors on walks. If your dog needs a little extra love, patience, or a calm handler who knows how to spot triggers and keep them safe, I’ve got you covered.
