Safety, trust & environment

I love going on hikes or just walking around neighborhoods. I'm happy to tailor outdoor activity to meet your dog's needs. I have a pup of my own who absolutely loves playing with other dogs, and can tag along on walks or drop-ins if your dog likes making friends.

Information Marielle F. would like to know about your pet

Before I meet a dog, I like to know a few things. Do they like people? Do they like other dogs? What is their energy level? What is their preferred activity? I have a puppy who recently turned 5 and loves play dates if your dog is interested, but I don't mind leaving him at home to spend quality time with your pup. I have no breed preference.

A typical day

I love taking dogs on hikes on the many trails around Bellingham. I also enjoy walks around neighborhoods, where there are so many fun smells for dogs.

Pet care experience

Hello! I absolutely love dogs. Whether I'm hiking, walking trails, or just hanging out, activities are always better with a dog. I started pet sitting when I was young- neighbors would ask me to drop by to feed/play with their cats and dogs. While I didn't have dogs until high school (pet fish only), I jumped any opportunity to hold a leash. My favorite summer activity is walks/hikes with dogs. I enjoy going to dog parks, throwing a ball/stick, or just getting some good pets in. Dogs, just like people, feed off the energy of those around them. I can get excited when needed, and stay calm in stressful situations. I work hard to be aware of my surroundings when I'm with dogs, and make sure their needs are being met. Chances are, your dog will love me. I've never met a dog I didn't want to pet.
