I have been boarding and walking pups for 5 years now and also have a dog companion of my own. Throughout my childhood, I've also taken care of family dogs including Labrador Retrievers and stray pups. Personality-wise, I arrive on time and make the right decisions on the fly to ensure the safety of both the dog, myself, and people/animals around us. I am laid-back, loves to read, hikes, and is very passionate about animal welfare and wildlife conservation. For every boarding I handle, I ensure that the dog gets to do three things - pee, poo, and get the exercise they need through regular, long walks and socializing with other dogs at offleash parks. I don't just take your dog outside so they can pee, smell the concrete and other dogs' pee stains, and pick up twigs or the occasional chicken bone; I take them to offleash parks, hiking trails, and beach trips, lately around Magnuson, Marymoor, and Rattlesnake Ledge, so they can interact with nature and other pups.
