Stay-at-home, dog walking Momma🐾💙

Pet care experience

I am starting my Rover journey with dog walking. Book me as your puppers new walking bestie!! As I get more comfortable and acclimated with the app and establish a client base I will add more services, such as house sitting with your pet. I currently assist two close friends with their dogs grooming needs as well as playdates with my own friendly and lovable pitbull pup Chonk. One is a husky/malamute mix and the other two are a Maltese and a Min-Pin, all of whom you'll see in my uploaded pictures along with myself. I'm familiar with care and needs of most breeds and I am constantly updating my knowledge daily for my own baby as well as others in my care. Seniors and puppies are most welcome as my last baby (my souldog that crossed the rainbow bridge Oct. 2022) was 10 and required extra care due to cancer and skin issues. Between working with specialists and my own care at home we were able to extend her life by almost two extra years of happiness and no pain before she passed on. My current baby is a 5 month old pittie who is TONS of work and energy. He keeps me going and is constantly teaching me new things everyday during our training sessions. He is super lovable and very submissive so he is always willing to make new doggy friends!

Becca was wonderful with Louie. He is a senior pup so he requires some time to get up and moving. Becca gave him snuggles and patiently coaxed him into his walks. She was always on time and sent lots of pictures of their adventures. I will definitely use Becca for Louie's needs in the future! 1000% recommend her services.

I live in a quiet cul-de-sac near two local parks for plenty of nature walks with your pup. Even have a pup of my own to keep yours company on walks.

Information Rebecca S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs/behaviors that I can account for. Please provide an allergy list and any dietary restrictions. I can't wait to walk your baby and become their new favorite walking bestie!! Book with me and your dog is set for life. I even have a walking buddy for them already (Chonk ??)!!!! It is important to know that I have one dog in the home (born 05/01/2023). He is the sweetest, most loving pitbull you will ever come across. If your dog isn't comfortable with other dogs, especially a puppy still learning, I may not be the best person to care for your baby. It is also important to know I live with two children. My 10 year old son and 5 year old niece. If your dog isn't comfortable with children I also may not be suitable to care for your pup. I also live with my adult sister and my Mom but we all have our own spaces in a big 5 bedroom house. I am beyond passionate about dogs. More so since losing my souldog in 2022. I am constantly taking steps towards learning all that I can about different breeds, dog body language, nutrition, health care, grooming, etc. This is something I plan on doing long-term so you can count on me becoming an expert in all fields dog related. I love learning new things and meeting new dogs. Nothing makes me happier!! If you have any additional questions or concerns we can always discuss in detail before meeting.

A typical day

Chonk and I can't wait to meet new people and make new friends! We are so excited to have your baby (or babies) join us on our walking endeavors!! I love to stimulate my own pupper physically and mentally so you can expect the same love and effort for your baby in my care. I have lick mats that I can prep ahead of time in the freezer, depending on your dog's nutritional needs, to provide mental stimulation and boost serotonin. We're huge fans of (dog-safe) peanut butter with flaxseed or plain Greek yogurt or unsweetened kefir (provides some excellent probiotics to support a healthy gut)!! But you are more than welcome to provide your pups favorite treats as well. I also have some snuffle matts, if you'd like to bring some of your pups favorite (dry) treats or kibble for some additional mentally stimulating fun. We have plenty of chew toys and stuffies to play with. Fetch is quickly becoming a favorite in our home so the more the merrier! I live in a quiet cul-de-sac that's perfect for leisurely sniff walks or something a bit more fast paced, depending on what your pup enjoys. Our couches aren't the best, but they're still perfect for snuggling up and watching our favorite show Bluey!
