Pet care experience

Same walker every visit, every time

I'm a Nashville-based therapist and doctoral student who started walking dogs because I wanted work that keeps me outside and around animals. I walk one dog at a time, never in groups, so your pet gets my full attention. I send photos and a quick update after every visit, and I'm consistent about showing up on time, every time. I'm Red Cross Pet First Aid certified, bonded, and insured. I genuinely love this work, and I think that shows in how I do it.

Safety, trust & environment

All of my walks and visits happen at your home and in your neighborhood. I learn your dog's usual routes, their comfort level with other dogs and people, and any environmental things to watch for. I carry a pet first aid kit on every walk and I'm Red Cross certified to use it. I treat your home with respect, lock up when I leave, and send you a message when the visit is done so you're never wondering. I don't take on more clients than I can serve well, which means I'm never distracted or cutting corners.

Schedule

My primary pet care days are Mondays and Tuesdays (full days, 8 AM to 5 PM) and Wednesday and Thursday mornings before noon. I'm also available for a couple of visits on Sundays. This works around my clinical practice schedule, which runs Wednesday through Saturday. I try to keep my client list small and my service area tight (Nippers Corner, Crieve Hall, Brentwood, Lenox Village, and nearby neighborhoods), so I can be reliable and on time without rushing between appointments.
