About Onyx R.
Communication
Dog skills
Cat skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have an extensive educational background in dog behavior/training, so I've learned to recognize body cues and other ways dogs communicate with us. I'll always meet your dog where they are, adjust my routines to meet their needs best, and ensure they're comfortable. I've learned the same for cats through owning them on and off my whole life.
Information Onyx R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has special medical, dietary, or behavioral needs. If I'm walking your dog, let me know if they're people or dog reactive so we can plan our outings accordingly. If I'm caring for your puppy, please let me know where you are with potty training.
A typical day
I know many games to play for fun or to reinforce training like recall. So, let me know if there are any skills or behaviors your dog is working on! I also have a lot of puzzle/food toys for my own dog that I can bring upon request.

Experienced care giver
Pet care experience
Hello! I'm new to the area and excited to establish a new clientele. I've been working in pet care for two years in addition to having pets my whole life. I've owned and cared for several high-needs animals, so I have experience with complex routines and administrating oral and injection medications. I have training experience from raising my own dog from 8 weeks old. I know how to reinforce good behavior and provide plenty of mental stimulation to prevent boredom (and mischief).
Cat care experience
Onyx also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Onyx is always reliable, communicative, and responsible. I have trusted her to walk my dog Lucy every day and she has never missed a day without advanced notice. She always keeps me updated and pays close attention to any changes in behavior. I always felt that Lucy was safe and I didn't have to worry about her while I was at work. Unfortunately we are moving away or I would continue to use her service. I could not recommend her more!
Onyx took great care of our pup and home for 6 days while we were away! Everything was clean and tidy and we got great updates all week.
Onyx took awesome care of my pup and my home. She’s reliable, followed any instructions I left, and sent regular updates. Will definitely have her back again!
Onyx took the best care of Pearl and we are so grateful! She was responsive and attentive and we knew that Pearl was extremely well cared for. We would absolutely book Onyx again and would recommend her to anybody!
