Pet care experience

Let me strut your mutt

Hey there – my name is Nancy, and I’ve taken care of dogs the majority of my life. Starting with my childhood dog, Bandit, a mixed Shepard. As an adult I had a pit bull/boxer mix, Vedder. I had Vedder for 12 years. After Vedder, I had a beagle/boxer mix, Killian. I currently do not have a dog of my own. This gives me plenty of time to take care of your dog I am an experienced sitter, and did walker who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. Some people have told me I’m a dog whisperer at times… I have yet to prove them wrong.

Thanks, Nancy, for accommodating my next day request for walking Blueberry! He seems like he really enjoyed himself and the photos were great

Nancy was great with our dog, Sierra. Nancy has a nice routine and a set of dog toys for the dog she boards. Nancy provides daily updates and it looked like Sierra was having a great time. We already have Nancy as a weekly dog walker and I would highly recommend her for boarding as well.

Great dog walker. Nancy was very conscientious and sent me photos of each of the walks with our dog. Will definitely work with her again!

Nancy is always timely and gives our dog a full 30 minute walk. She is very responsive and always provides pictures. Highly recommend!

Daisy loved her stay with Nancy! She got so many walks and was able to explore new parks and parts of the city. Nancy was a great communicator and sent me lots of pictures and updates on how Daisy was doing throughout the stay. Thank you, Nancy!

Nancy was awesome! We left both our dogs for the weekend. One of our dog has arthritis and hip dysplasia. Nancy took great care of them, and sent pictures constantly. We would definitely book with Nancy again!

Safety, trust & environment

To ensure the safety and well-being of pets under my care, I would first familiarize myself with each pet’s specific needs, behaviors, and any medical conditions. This includes understanding their diet, exercise routine, allergies, or medications they may be on. During walks, I would keep them on a leash at all times. Moreover, for both walks and sitting sessions, I’d maintain regular communication with the pet owners by providing updates and promptly reporting any unusual behavior. Maintaining vigilance, open communication, and being prepared for unexpected situations are crucial aspects of ensuring the safety and well-being of pets under my care. I am not a certified dog trainer, but I did successfully train my pit bull/boxer, Vedder, and my beagle/boxer, Killian. When you board your dog with me, you can expect a quality stay. Your dog will not only be well looked after, they will go on some cool walking adventures. I’m located near three beaches, and three parks. One of the parks has a bike/walking path. I keep the owner updated with pics and text. I also use a walking app that shows where we walked, how far we walked and how long we walked. When you leave your dog in my care, you can enjoy your vacation knowing that your dog is also having fun.

A typical day

The activities that I will do with your dog depends on what your dog likes. If your dog is ball obsessed, I would find time to throw a ball around with him. I will walk your dog in different areas of your neighborhood.
