Pet care experience

I guarantee a tail-wagging time!

As an only child, my dogs were my siblings. We always had 2 in our house and I was given the responsibility to care for them and our other pets at a young age. Friends and family have all requested and relied on me to care for their pets while they’re out of town on numerous occasions. I even walk my friends’ and neighbors’ dogs in my free time as I truly enjoy spending time with them! I have ample experience owning and caring for any and all things dog related. I can’t wait to meet and give your fur baby all the love and care they deserve!

Michelle did a great job with Kane again! I appreciate her willingness to accommodate a somewhat late pickup time.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced-in, private space for your dog to enjoy. I am happy to follow any and all rules you enforce in your own home, and am happy to allow your pup on my furniture. While walking your dog, they will receive all of my love and attention while encouraging polite walking behavior and safe socializing when appropriate. Keeping your pup safe, cared for, and happy is my top priority!

A typical day

I love to walk in the neighborhood in the morning and then come home to relax and cuddle. I have dog puzzles and toys available if those are what your pup is into too!
