My schedule adapts to your pet’s needs. I care for one dog at a time, so your pup gets my full attention, affection, and cuddles. I never rush—each visit includes time to bond, play, and build trust. Walks and drop-ins are unhurried, with extra time for love and connection. Pets are welcome on the furniture—just please ensure their nails are trimmed. Currently accepting recurring walks only.

Information Nancy B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know your dog’s eating, walking, sleeping and play routines. I am home all day so can be attuned to their every need. If your pet has any oral medicine needs, or external ointment, etc., please provide along with directions. I will provide you with a log of all activities & meds administered, along with all appropriate observations of their behavior.

A typical day

I love walking and playing with dogs, keeping them safe, confident, and happy on the leash. I give plenty of time for sniffing, potty breaks, and praise—and bring a few fun, clean toys just for your pup.

Loving Dogs, One at a Time!

Pet care experience

I’m retired with lots of flexibility, and care for one dog at a time—so your pup gets my full attention! I specialize in skittish, senior, and special-needs dogs. A client once called me The Pet Whisperer, and I strive to live up to that every day. Each stay begins with a Meet & Greet to ensure a great fit. I stay current on pet safety, first aid, and behavior through professional training. Caring for animals has been my passion since childhood, and friends and family regularly trust me with their pets—from daily walks to extended stays.

Nancy did wonderful with Marshall for a morning doggie daycare! It was great to have them get to know each other before his longer stay next month. Marshall got a long walk in and I could tell he had a great time :)

Nancy was very warm and friendly. We had a lovely meet and greet at the park, then scheduled an overnight visit for Lexie. She kept me informed with pics and video so I could see how well Lexie was adjusting to a new environment. Nancy was highly attentive to Lexie during her stay. Would definitely call upon Nancy again! 🙂

Nancy really helped Ruby feel comfortable and was great at providing pics and updates! I appreciated the chance to do a meet and greet and Nancy’s flexibility around pick up and drop off times. We would definitely consider booking with Nancy in the future!

Nanci was phenomenal. We were very concerned about our dog Maisie, who has separation anxiety. Nanci listened to our concerns at a meet and greet prior to our 8 day trip. Nanci sent us daily updates and photos. She worked patiently with Maisie which helped with us having a worry-free trip.
